CONGRESSIONAL.
Washington, March b. In the
house the cemmittee on commerce re
ported a bill proViding for the remov
al of obstructions to free navigation
ofnaviirable waters of the "United
States; referred to committee of "the
whole.
The committee on judiciary re
ported u bill establishing a uniform
system of bankruptcy throughout the
UDited States; referred to the com
mittee of the whole.
The house theD went into commit
tee of the whole, Converse in the
chair, on the naval appropriation bill,
the pending amendment being that
offered by McMillan, reducing the
number of captains to 30, the number
of commanders to 50, and providing
that no more promotions shall be
made to. these grades until the num
bers arereduced below the numbers
mentioned. The amendment was lo-it.
Calkins moved to strike out the
provision prohibiting promotion to
various grades in line and staff of the
navy until such grades shall be re
duced to the numbers fixed in the
naval act of 18S2 and the amendment
admitted yesterday reducing staff
corps; agreed to, 85 to Go.
' Belford moved to increase to S5,
OQO.OOO the appropriation for emerg
ency and extraordinary expenses, and
made one of his characteristic
speeches, criticising the Democratic
party for appropriating for these
emergencies the magnificent sum of
$15,000. Bismarck, grand vizier of
Germany, had sent an insulting mes
sage, and in the very face of it the
majority of the house declared if
Germany made war on Ainerca it
would perpetuate and protect the
country's honor with the magnificent
sum of $15,000. He then paid his re
spects to Bandall, asserting that,
since his election, in Philadelphia
that gentleman was as dead as Laz
arus, with no Christ in sight to resur
rect him.
Uox.of New York sent to the clerk's
desk and had read newspaper ex
tracts explaining the manner in which
Belford had contracted his manner of
Bpeaking, and a good deal of amuse
ment was created, as the clerk read a
peculiar account of that gentleman's
criticism on Mrs. Langtry and an
exaggerated description of his own
personal appearance.
The amendment was withdrawn.
On motion of Bandall an amend
ment was adopted providing that the
amount appropriated by paragraph,
shall be apportioned in monthly in
stallments, and that the apportion
ment shall be adhered to, unless in
some emergency.
Calkins raised a point of order
against the paragraph reappropriat
ing for use of the bureau of steam
engineering, the unexpended balance
of. the appropriation of one million
(about $170,000), made by the last
naval bill, for engines and machinery
for the double-turreted monitors.
Glasscock supported the point of
order and pictured the defenseless
condition of the Pacific coast The
policy the house was pursuing in re
fusing to finish the iron-clads was a
bad policy. "While he believed in
economy and reform, he did not be-,
lieve in that economy and reform that
left thousands of miles of sea coast
in an entirely defenseless condition.
The chair having overruled the
point of order, Budd moved to strike
out the paragraph. He declared the
defenses of the Pacific coast insuffi
cient to keep out second-rate vessels,
and that it was not economy but an
outrage to prevent the construction
of the Monadnock. "What was want
ed was a vessel to protect the Pacific
coast
Sumner also bore testimony to the
defenseless condition of the Pacific
coast There was a little brick wall
on Fort Point which would be a mo
ment's amusement to any small boats
that could be sent up from Chile.
There was a small defense on Alcat
rmx island, but as an illustration of its
uselessness in a time of emergency,
he stated that on the Fourth of July
from this island guns were fired for
six hours at a barge 400 yards distant,
and finally a man had to be sent out
with a hand torpedo to blow it up.
The motion was lost
Salting Batter.
What do we salt butter for? "We
salt It to preserve it" says one. "I
saint," says another, "to improve its
taste." -"And I," adds a third, "be
cause XJiave been accustomed to and
never thought much about why I did
60. I only supposed I must, or it
would go wrong in some way." This
last reply will answer for the multi
tude, and it will answer for much that
is done outside of the avocation of
butter making. If one will stop and
ask himself at every step why he
does each thing, he will be surprised
to hnd himself doing about all he
does from habit, or by way of imi
tating the habits of others. Man is
very properly credited with being a
reasonable animal because he does
sometimes reason, but he is moved
much more by the force of custom
than that of thought and our con
duct of salting butter if only the out
growth cf our most prominent hu
man characteristics.which is thought
lessly following in a rut The safest
rule to follow in salting for reason
ing is the one followed by a horse
jockey in harnessing his horses. He
said when he had an ugly-loeking
horse, he.covered him up with all the
nice harness he could get on him.
The, harness looked better than the
horse, and the latter got the benefit
of -the improvement. When he had
a fine looking animal he used as little
harness as he could. The horse
looked better than the harness and
it only 'served to obscure his beauty.
If butter must be salted this is the
true.rule to follow, for the flavor of
choice butter is much more pleasing
than the taste of salt, and the
more of it there is used, the more the
butter.flavor is hid; but the taste of
salt is better than no flavor or bad
flavor; so, when butter is afflicted
with suoh faults, liberal salting will
improve- the defects by disguising
tnem wiin its prominence.

The War in Egypt.
London, March o. General Gra
ham is making preparations at
Suakem to advance on Samanieb.
Sneiks of several tribe3 sent envoys

sha's troops and the rebels.
Captain Mason, English agent at
Mass-ouah, is organizing an Abyssinian
contingent force under English offi
cers, .to operate on Khartoum if El
Mahdi continues fighting.
Gen. Gordan asks further supplies
of money, and the treasury at Cairo
sent 40UO and a number of decora
tions. bUAKEir, March 5. Seven hundred
men, women and children have ar
rived here from 'lokar. The rebels
mutilated the British dead that fell
into their hands. Marines, soldiers
and sailors attached to General Gra
ham's expedition returned to Trinki
tat, and have embarked for Suakem.
Osman Digma has sworn to give bat
tle. Lieut .Lloyd, brother of Clifford

toria the standard captured at Tokar.
The British ouried 2300 rebels.

Admiral Hewitt accompanies Cap
tain Speedy on his mission to King

Keports have reached here that Be
douins of Jeddah are in revolt against
Turkey. If so it is expected that a
state of siege will be declared.
Cairo, March 5. General Gordon
reports the submission of sheiks who
were distrusted at Cairo. It is said
he is the dupe of shieks, who take
bribes and delude him with false
news. It 'is reported that shieks of
Braham, on the White Nile, with
yOOU Arabs, and shieks of Busser, are
advancing on Khartoum by the Blue
Nile, with 8000 men.

miles from Suakem.
London, March 5. The porte has
been sounding the powers regarding
the Soudan. Germany replied that she
will not" interfere, and suggests that
Turkey arrange the matter directly
with England. Other powers made
similar replies. In view of this "the
Turkish embassader at London has
requested Earl Granville's influence..
A dispatch to the Timta from
Khartoum says: General Gordon be
lieves that the slaveiy question will
settle itself within a year, by the ris
ing of the slaves.
. mm m -
The C. and O. Railroad.
The S. F. Chronicle of tho 5th
says: The report of the committee
on public lands declares that the un
earned section of the grant of the
California and Oregon should bo for
feited for non-compliance with its
terms. For 150 miles of road, built
to Bedding, patents for 1,517,000 acres
have already been given. We have
no means of knowing how much tho
road will realize from theso lands,
but perhaps enough to pay for the
road from the initial point to the
Oregon line. Henley has explained
the motives that caused its extension
beyond Bedding. It was stopped at
that place btcause the Willamette
valley road was in trouble, and was
unable to build to the state line, as
originally agreed. Work was com
menced because Villard threatened
to extend the Willamette valley road
to San Francisco, thus giving us le
gitimate competition with the oast,
and this had to be stopped at any
prioe. In plain English tho Central
Pacific stopped the Northern Pacific
in an enterprise that would have been
of great benefit to California, and
now demands that it be magnificently
paid for having been a public enemy.
It is now evident that the road will
have to be built, as Huntington says
that whether the lands are given or
not they will be simply taken from
the people to give to a corporation
already rolling in wealth, and greatly
overpaid for this very service.
An Ingenious Device.
Another ingenious device to gain
an easy livelihood came very near
costing two St Louis men their lives
recently. Early in December one of
them conceived the idea that he and
his companion could be manufac
tured into Siamese twins by a simple
surgical operation, and they employed
a surgeon to perform it A piece of
skin about four inches wide by three
deep was cut and raised from one
arm of each, exposing bare flesh be
neath. Then, the two arms were
brought together, the pieces of skin
lapped one over the other, and the
arms bandaged firm and tightly to
gether. The men were told it would
take between twenty and. thirty days
for the two arms to grow together,
and during that time they must re
main quiet in their room and eat,
drink and sleep together. Their meals
were brought to them and they ate
quite heartily until about the fifth
day, when the healing process began,
and then they lost their appetites.
The pain at the time became very
severe and for two or three days both
men were compelled to take to their
bed because one or the other was too
sick to sit up. Finally, fever seized
both of them and the doctors were
compelled to cut them apart in order
to save their lives.
The List Found.
Mr. Walter Haynes, 147 York St,
Sydney, N. S. W., affirms that he
would spend his last pound for a bot
tle of St Jacobs OiL It cured him
of rheumatic lumbago, with whioh he
suffered so he eould not rise from
hisahair,
