Tho bill, how? ever, was, by a majority of Dourly two thirds, taken from thu Appropriation Committee, and scut to tho Commis? sioner on Public Buildings and Grounds. Afterwards, tho army appropriation bill was up. The aopropriation of $23,000, 000?a reduction of 83,000,000 on the bill of last session?was taken up and dismissed, without action. The Senate discussed finance. The benefit of J. U. Savillo, manager of tho Natioual Theutro, to-night, is simply immense.

Among tho growing industries of the United States, and one that enters largely into tho foreign export trade, is that of sole and upper leather. Tho vu luo of exports of leather for the last two years from the Unitod States, aggregated $10,000,000, Great Britain and Germany being tho largest customers. Tho ship? ments of solo leather from Boston in 1873, were 200,000 sides, valued at 3885,688, and tuu total value of leather exported from tho United States was $1,421,055. The export of hides to Eu? rope, last year,. amounted to nearly 03,000,000. Nearly all the exports o"f leather go from Now York and Boston. - ? - ? Teleqrapiiic Communication with Mexico.?Tho Government of the Unitod States has given permission to the Mexican Government to extend its teleg~tph lines ucross tho Rio Grande to Brownsville, Texas, and to establish uu oflloo there. When this is accom? plished tbero will bo direct telegraphic communication established between all points in the United States aud the City of Mexico. The Oldest Paper.?Tho oldest jour? nal in the world is published at Pekin. It is printed on a large sheet of yellow silk, aud appears iu the samo form, with the same oharaotors, and on the same kind of stuff us took place 1,000 years ago. Tho only tbiug changed is tho writers. Tho store of Messrs. Bowdeu, Good 1 ott & Co., in Spartan burg, was entered ou Friday night last, aud robbod of about $250 worth of goods nod $250 cash. Mr. Stephen A. Hairgrove, of Marion, died lost week. Thu Flow or Immigration.?The steamship Charleston, whioh arrived in Charleston Tuesday morning, brought 209 moro immigrants. Major F. Mel obere, Mr. F. Yon Saaten and others conferred with them and took steps to provida plattes for them. The most of them were young men, (there were no women in the crowd,) and were flue types of manhood, being very robust looking. The majority of them had been in the United States for some time, and had been transferred from Ward's Island to Custlo Garden, whence they were sent hither, their passage money being paid before starting. There was little or no money amongst them, us they had been out of work for some time in New York, which was the cause of their being quartered at Ward's Island. The mojority of them were la? boring men, who had worked in ma? chine shops, mills and on farms iu tho Northern States, but had been thrown out of employment by the severity of the times. Tbey appeared anxious aud willing to work, and expressed u desire to know at onoe what disposition would l o made i f them. A Sad Occurrence.?A white woman named Caroline Newberry, living about live miles below the town of Union, was burned to death last Friday. She was standing with her back to the fire and a child belonging to another woman iu her arms, when her clothes caught fire, and in a miuute the flames enveloped hor. Throwing the baby on the bed, she ran out of the house, but before assistance arrived she was so badly burned that she died soou afterwards. On tho followiug day tho child was found dead iu thu bed whero it had been throwu. At tho ooroner's inquest a sad coudition of affairs were disclosed. It appears that tho mother of the child could not give her baby sufficient nour? ishment in consequence of herself be? ing almost starving, and she had gouo iu quest of food, leaving the baby in the care of the woman who was burnt. Ou tho return of the mother tho excite? ment iu thu house was so great that eho merely threw the olothes over the child. Important Carlist Victories. ? A despatch from Bayonne. France, says that tho Carlists report that Santander and Portugalite surrendered on tbo 22d instant to their forces, and that tho en? tire Scgoviu battalion, a number of artillerymen and engineers, 1,200 Re? mington and 400 Minie rifles and two cannon fell into their hands. San Lander is the capital of the province of the same name, und is situated on the bay of Biscay, 207 miles North of Ma? drid. It has been a very busy little sea? port, doing n thriving trade with South Amorica and Cuba. The population numbers about 20,0U0. Portugal) u: is n i small place of l,500jiohabituut9, iu tho j provinco of Biscay, on tho river Nerva, near its eutranco into tho bay of Biscay, aud Home thirty-five miles East of San? tander. The two points are important as affording tho Carlists seaports for their blockade ruuners. .-?>?? Nearly all tho newspapers have this year omitted that formidable lookiug and closely printed compilation, tho re? cord of events of the previous year. It would be hard to determiuo whether this is the the result of a lack of indus? try, or the consequence of a growing contempt for dates?a disposition to care nothing about tho time of the oc? currence of a crisis or u panic or a hor? ror after tho other particulars have lost their freshness. Mrs. Livermoro is now lecturing against tho evils of tight lacing. Sbo is quite right. If a girl wants her waist squeezed, she ought to employ some re? liable young mau for the purpose. Our experience if that no young man with auy pretoutions to reliability, would, when thus employed, for a single mo? ment neglect his business. It is t>aid that "the physicians of Memphis propose to erect a monument to the memory of their heroic brethren who died during the pestilence last summer." Aud what do they propose to do for the memory of thoso heroic brethren who, "owing to unavoidable absence from tho city," didn't die dur? ing tho pestilence last summer? The laying of the comer stone of the new Tribune building, last Saturday, was an important event iu journalism, when tho memory of Horace Greoley was duly honored. It is a pity, how ! ever, that tho ceremony could not have takeu place on tho dead journalist's birthday, February 11, and thu build? ing have beou dedicated as bis monu? ment. Count Von Moltko has become the Conservative candidate for tho Uerman Parliament in Berlin. Tho indications uro that ho will not ho chosen, as Borliu is truly Radical. His supporters say that his candidacy is meant only to test tho fullest streugth of tho Conservatives \ iu the capital. Tho eldest grand-son of Queen Yicto I ria, Priuoo Froderick William, son of tho Crowu Prince of Germany, is now fifteen years old. IIo recently passed a I very creditable examination at a Berlin academy. Tho newest French bonnets are trimmed almost exclusively with fea? thers of three or four differuut sinnlos. I All knick-knacks, gilt or steed stars, daggers, etc, are now ignored. It is said that bills are to be intro? duced simultaneously into the New York au 1 New Jersoy Legislature* for bridging the Hudson a short distance above Now York city. Brigham Young, truo to h:_, 'nature, has ordered his missionaries in Europe to send over ifo more old maids. Fu malo saints over thirty years of age he regards us unprofiUble converts. A friend writes to on editor for four dollars, "bcoauso ho is so d?d short;" and gets in reply tho heartless response, "Do I do, stand up on a chair." Facts About tue British Pahlia ment.?Tho British Parliament which bus been dissolved by Queen Viotoriaat the instance of her' premier, was the eighth of her reign, and mot on the 10th of December, 1868. It would not have attained the constitutional limit of sevon years uuMl 1875, but siuoe 1826 only one Parliament has existed for rnoro than six years. The longest Parliament recorded in English history was that elected in 1661, which existed; nearly seventeen yeare, and the shortest! that.elected in 1830, which only lasted! fivo months and twenty-six 'days. The1 House of Cummous now consists of 658j members, of whom 493 are from Eng? land and Wales, 60 from Scotland, and 105 from Irolaud. The number of1 electors on the register iu June, 1872, was 2,574,039, numely: 2,094,781 in England and Wales, 255,751 in Scot-1 land and 223,507 iu Ireland. Since 1872 all elections for members of Pur liumeut must bo by ballot. Whon the lato Parliament met, tho liberals bad a majoriiy of 112, but tb? position of the two great English parties has since been modified by new elections and by grave dissensions among the liberals. Stretch of Privilege.?Daughter of the house (to a privileged old friend of tho family)?"Dear Mr. Lupus, you don't seem tobe enjoying yourself. I should like to have you waliz this once with mo." Privileged Old Friend?"My dear child, I don't dance; but, if it suits you, 1,wouldn't mind sitting here with my arm round your waist, while the others aro making thnmsoives dizzy"?Punch. The Tide Returning.?We see by tho papers in West Alabama that hun? dreds of negroes who left there to go to Mississippi and Louisiana are return? ing, some of them even walking 100 and 200 miles on foot. They give anything but a glowing account of tho West, and say thoy are "mighty glad to git out of the wilderness, and git baok to Alabam." A Stabbing Affray .?We learn that a stabbing affray occurred on Saturday last, at Donaldsville, Abbeville County, between Newton MoAdams and New? ton Drake, in which the latter received two severe flesh wounds in the breast und one in the thigh. Air-Line Road.?The agents of the Air-Lino Railroad have been officially notified that the line from Richmond to \tlanta has passed into the hands of the Pennsylvania Central Railroad Com pany, aud that a complete organization will be effected ut once. A pious old lady being asked by bei pastor what she thought of the doctrine of total depravity, replied she thought il a most excellent doctrine, and bad nc doubt it bad been the means of saving many souls.
