WASHINGTON , February 11. Mnnderon
presented an a memorial a joint resolution of

TngalU ioterrupted the reading to Inauire if
it win understood that the rtnato would ro-
iiimo legislative bminess on the completion of
the electoral count todayAfter nn inter-
clunpa of vioK-n the unanimous understanding
waa rcacliud th.it that coarse bi pimued.
At fivu minuU a before twelve message ? were
received announcing the houte would , nt
twelve , bo ready to receive senat ? , that in
joint convention both homes may count the
electoral vote. The chair announced concur
rent resolution providing for joint convention
would now bo executed anil senators headed
by ; president protein , and secrettry of the
Bounto preceded by the Bergeant-at-armo
proceeded to the house of representative * .
At 1:25 : p. in. the scn.itorj returned to the
sonata chamber , and the president pro torn
having tesuniod the chair , the tellers on the
prut of the nenato appeared , and in their be
half lioar reported the result of the o'ectoral '
count. When thu reiwrt waa completed ,
the preeieltnt of the senate repfa'.ed
verbatim the closing sentence of the an
nouncement made by him in the house rela
tive to the declaration of tha voto.
Conger caid he desirjd , as ono member rf
the senate , to say that lie entirely dissented
from the declaration. The president of the
senate , or vice president , had no other power
in announcing tha vote than to announce the
facs , and he did not know by what authority
the sentence quoted had been made a part of
the declaration ,
Sherman said : "I , also , wi'h , for myself ,
having put on reconl my opinion on this ruiex-
tloa ot othf r times , to again assent nnd p it on
rooord my opinion that tlie decl ir iti ) i > of the
gentleman who presided on that ccc-ision , ex-
fireniiop- ) own opinion and should not betaken
taken ai a precedent , except DO far a < it may
command the judgement of mankind , I ba-
lieve that the vice president of the Uuitod
Htntes declared and executed a constitutional
power when bo presided over the
body to day , and counted ths
votoj anil that liia announcement of the vote is
the conclusive end of all argument on the
subject and that in doirg so be not only gave
Ilia own opinion an the result of certain paper. ,
given to him , but ha mido only thq constitu
tional declaration provided fcr under thu ex
isting law , who was to ba the president of the
Untied States after the fourth of March.
After remarks by Hoar , Laph.im , Wilson ,
and Ingalls , the chair ( Edmunds ) said IH ro-
pnrdnd the Senate as In no way respon'ible for
the declaration made by him. Ho had per
formed his constitutional duty nnd had on hia
own responsibility nmdo thu delaraton ! re
ferred to.
The resolution was offered by Ing ilia de
claring that the senate does not assent to Kd
inunds' declaration , went over until to mor
row , as did the resolution by Ifoar approving
of his course.
The senate resumed thu consideration of
the bill to repeal tbe pre-emption of the tim
ber culture laws.
Sinter opposed the bill , llo said the prop
osition tj repeal the pre-emption law was
monstrous. Greater prosperity had come un
der the operation of this law than under the
hometteai law. lie would entitle the pend
ing bill an act to facilitate the sale of land <
of the land grant corporatiins. There had
been eviU under the pro rmption law , but
they were not fuch M would bo remedied by
its repea' ' . Within the past twenty-five or
thirty jcars the weit has been coverfd with
land grautt. No longer in several states
could homesteader * get land ? , yet the land
grant roads had abundance of land for falo.
It was said that KiO acrei ws enough for a
farm. It win enough in inch a stite na Iowa ,
but in the great wett more was necessary fcr
the farmer to ba Biiceseftil in making a home.
1'nder the homestead and pre-emption law * n
pettier could lecwu 320 acres. Slater woulJ ,
however , be willing to repeal the timber cut-
turo and ilernrt net ? .
Tha bill was now reported to the senate , nnd
Eom amendment ) ! , rejected in committee of
tli9 whole , went rtotfered.
1'ooding their ditcutsiou the Fenate went
into executive session aud eoon adjourned.

Springer said it seemed from the announce
ment of the presiding officer of the jnint con
vention that there was no declaration of a

preeidcnt hud simply declared It appeared
from the count m.vjo by tba tellers that

poctal telegram to THE UEE.
WASHINGTON , February 11. There has been
omlderabla comment at the fact that the
Tnion Pacific pixty-year funding bill has not
cen called up in the senate. The gentleman
ho has been closely watching this gives the
illowirg reason" for it : When Hoar intro-
ucad thu amendment to thu amendment it
rigtsned the Union Pacific.
They atnf a man named Story from Boston ,
lie of tbo attorneys tor that raid , to insist
lat if tlie bill wna pised in that foim it
mid bankrupt the company. When he wiw
old that the understanding was that the b'll '
eportcd by ths judiciary committee was that
hich had been submitted to Mr. Huiitington
ud Mr. Dillon and approved by them , he said
lit this wai not the bill.
The Armstrong bill the one submitted bye
o cJimni&iiotiLTif railroails list year had
cm approved by tha company : uut thi < ia a
Itlcreut bill , and the cjuipany could not
perata under it. Thr suppoitsra of tha fund-
IR bill were not alarnuil. The Central } 'A-
ilic peopl were telegraphed to by their
fprrsentitivej here ai to tha situation. They
ro tryin ? to luparatu their intwefts f Mini
lio. e of the Union Pacific. Th-y think that

The statement of Dr. Hcnion is true , ss
far as it conco'ns myself , and 1 believe it
to bo true in all other icspects. Ho was a
parishioner of mine and L visited him in
his sickness. 1 urged him to take the
medicine and would do so again to any
who was troubled w th a disease of the
kidneys and liver.
