CONGRESSIONAL PROCEEDINGS
Th Direct Tax Bill Put to a Vote in
the House.
"Washington, Dec. 12. The river and
harbor bill was reported to the house to
day and referred to the committee on the
whole.
The senate amendments to the depart
ment of agriculture bill were non-concurred
in and a conference ordered.
T'ie report of the committee on elec
tions in the California contested election
case of Sullivan against Fclton was sub
mitted and placed on the calendar.
The house then went into committee of
the whole on the direct tax hill.
A long debate ensued, during which
many amendments were offered and re
jected. Mr. Eiliott offered an amendment
making it the duty of the secretary of the
treasury to pay such persons as shall
apply therefor, and who furnish satis
factory evidence that such applicant was
at the time of the sales mentioned, the
legal owner or his heir-at-law, or devisee
of the legal owner of such lands as were
sold in certain parishes of South Carolina,
under the acts of congress, the value of
said Hnds in the manner which is set
forth iu the amendment at length. In
all cases where persons, while serving in
the army or navy or marine corps, pur
chased -any of said lands, and such lands
afterwards reverted to the United States,
it shall be the duty of the treasury to pay
to such persons as shall in each casi ap
ply therefor or to their heirs-at-law, de.
visee or grantees, in good faith and for
valuable consideration, whatever sum
was so paid to the United States in such
case. In order to carry out the provis
ions of the amendment $850,000 is ap
propriated. The amendment was adopted.
Mr. Oates of Alabama offered an
amendment providing for refunding the
cotton tax. Rejected.
The question then came up on the
amendment proposed by the judiciary
committee, striking out the provision in
the senate bill declaring that no part of
the money appropriatedjny the bill should
be oaid to anv attorney or agent, under
any contract for services now existing, or
heretofore made between the representa
tive of any state and any attorney or
agent. The amendment was disagreed
to.
After several other amendments had
been offered and rejected th committee
'-se and reported the bill to the-house.
was passed; yeas 178, nays 88.
A Surprised Young Man.
From Friday's Daily.
An instance occurred last night at the
Sons of Veterans mask ball which re
minded many of such scenes as are
frequently revealed upon the sulden
break of day which strikes a car load of
loye makers as they are rapidly pulled
from a tunnel. The actions may not
have been similar to that, but the hot
burning words which were poured from
one ear to another certainly corresponded
with those let loose under such circum
stances. Before the masks were lifted
many pleasing conversations occurred
hetween the young men and several sup-
Tjfcosed-to-be ladies.
A young man who presents
somewhat
of a female expression even when his
countenance is not hidden from view by
a mask, attired himself in a low-necked
dress, while a stylish hat partially cov
ered streaming golden tresses which
reached the waist of this much admired
beauty. Uy the aid of modern science,
the young man managed to build ad
ditions to himself which, when completed,
passed him-off in the regular form. He
was sized up much by the young bloods
who remarked to themselves: "I wonder
who she is, I must not go home before
meeting her and having a dance. She is
a beauty, and I believe she must be a
stranger for I do not remember ever see
ing that figure on any previous occasion."
She danced with several of the young
men, ai d all were apparently much de
lighted with her company, her graceful
danciDg. her charming figure and musical
voice. One of the mashers danced with
this young lady, and being an intimate
frh nd of the disguised, the great secret
was divulged to him, which suddenly
opened his eyes and he was about to
tl.nmp the deceiver when he was sudden
ly hushed up. The two made it up to
score a point on a fellow they had "had
it in for" for a short time.
The victim was secured and intro
duced to the young lady,, and a more de
lighted young man could not have been
found in the dance hall last evening.
He was gradually led on by this treach
erous young female until he commenced
to open fire: He admired her very much
and the taffy which dropped between
them nearly fastened them to the floor,
The young lover revealed many secrets
which he would not have the boys know
for any sum. For his sake (for we
know he will suffer much as it is) we
withhold many of his expressions.
When all masks were removed, he was
the most miserable of men and especially
when given the laugh by the boys. A
duel will probably be the result of the
hoax.
Hayti's Side of the Case.
New York, Dec. 14. In a recent in
terview with the Herald correspond 2nt
at Hayti, General Legitime, president of
the republic, speaking of the present
embroglio over the vessel Haytien Re
public, said: "'I am perfectly confident
that our law officers have given correct
counsel, and that we have international
law on our side. The people of the north
are in rebellion against the provisional
government. The prts of Cape Haytien,
Port de Paix, Gonaivis and St. Marc
were proclaimed to be blockaded. The
Haytien Republic took armed revolution
ists from one port to another. She also
took munitions of war on board for use
against tho provisional government.
There is a precedent for our action. The
steamer Tropic was fitted out at Phila
delphia for an expedition against Hayti,
or against the legal government. The
United States goverument sustained our
side of the case. I do not anticipate that
" General " Cleveland will forget this
precedent of the Tropic case. I do not
feel any doubt of the strength of our
case. The Haytien government has taken
a step which will, I hope, convince the
people of the great republic that we are
friends. The entire case, so far a3 our
side is concerned, has been referred to
Washington. We have instructed the
Haytien minister, Mr. Preston, a most
trustworthy and careful diplomat, to lay
our side before the American cabinet and
ask for its adjudication, its arbitration
This is certainly an act of great confidence
on the part of the naytien government.
It means that we allow the government
which makes an advance claim against
us to adjudicate for both parties. We
repose the utmost confidence in "General"
Cleveland's character for justice and in
ternational comity. We feel confident
that when the Haytien side is understood
a decision in our favor will be made
Captain Ramsey, the commander of the
corvette Boston, took all the papers in
the case."
From Thursday's Daily.

performed at the home of the groom's j
brother on Wintcrstien hill, by Rev. W. ;

A case of sympathy occurred in the j
District court yesterday. Sharp vs M. P' j
Ry. -vas on trial. Sharp's eloquent at- i
torneys worked on the sympathy of t'ie j
jmy and by that means got a verdict for ;
$jG. In a moment afterwards the elo- i
quent attorneys filed a lien 0:1 the verdict
for $50. They were done with sympathy
in that case, or rather it was meaut for
the jury and not for the attorneys.

From Friday' Daily,
The report was circulated this morn
ing that County Attorney Beeson, who
had filed suit contesting the late elec
tion, had withdrawn. Upon inquiry it
was learned that Mr. Beeson had really
withdrawn from the contest and that he
and Gering have settled the affair
amicablv.
Mrs. Morgan, mother of Messrs.
Frank and Clel Morgan, is lyiug in a
critical condition, at her home. She has
been debilitated for some time, but of
late she has been afflicted with erysipelas
which has come in contact with her hsart.
Last night it was feared that her last mo
ments had arrived, but today she is
sliglilly improving, but another attack is
expected this afternoon or evtning.
"We desire to return our thanks ob
served the editor of an Arkansas paper in
his last issue, "to the members of the
Gallusville Cornet Band for a serenade
last night. The band can't play for
shucks, and the music would have drawn
a howl of pain from an Egyptian mum
my but it awakened us from a horrible
night-mare in which we seemed to be
standing at the door of our office defend
ing it against a sheriff who wore horns
and hoofs and had come to take posses
sion of it. Notwithstanding the appall
ing character of the music it was the
sweetest sound that ever struck our ear,
and we don't lay the serenade up against
the boys. They didn't mean any harm
and they probably saved our life."
