The Democratic Caucu. The democrats caucs this morning took no action on Senator Bayard's resig nation of the chairman of the finance committee ; but after consuming an hour and a half in deboto, adjourned till to morrow. Indications were very clear that his resignation will not bo accepted, aud the silver bill will bo left in the hands of the nuance committee until next session. Matter In Committee. A sesHion of the house commerco com mittoo to-day was devoted entirely to a' further consideration of a proposition authorizing the ub committee to inquire into and report wherein existing laws can bo so amended as to afford relief to the commercial interests of tho country j and Chairman Itoagan was Anally in structed to offer a resolution, at the first opportunity, requeuing an appropriation to carry out a resolution on this subject which was adopted by the houso on the fourth inst. It was proposed to-day that this sub committee should also hear tes timony with regard to the enter state commorce bill, and this will probably bo tho final determination reached, provid ing nocesHury appropriation shall bo al lowed by the houso. The democratic memlK'rs of tho house appropriation committee held a confer ence after tho adjournment to-day for the purposo of agreeing ujion a plan of pro cedure on the bill making appropriations for the judicial expenses of tlio govern ment which was amended and passed by the senato yesterday and referred to the houso committee. To-day memlers of tho committee are authority for the state ment that a majority will recommend non-concurrence iu the second section of tho bill as amended by the senato, and will submit that section in a modified form and ask for the appointment of a conference committee. There will be a sjKcial meeting of the committee to con sider this questiou to-morrow. All Smooth Again. The proceedings aud findings of tho court martial in the caso of Col. D. L. Stanley and Col. W. B. Hazen, of which Gen. Hancock was president, have lioen mado public. Gen. Sherman approves the proceedings and findings ana says : " The officers will resume their respec tive duties," and adds, "both parties will be careful Unit tho service be not in jured by a revival of the subject. The court found Stanley guilty of con duct to the prejudice of good order and military dittciiifine. and sentenced him to be admonished in general orders by the general of the army. Gen. Sherman, on reviewing the findings of tho court, aays that the proceedings, findings ami sentence of the general court-martial in the cose of Col. 1). L. Stanley are ap proved. Col. Stanley will resume com mand of his regiment. Theconrtmartial convened by general orders No. (Ml, of March 20, 18711, is hereby dissolved. The members and military witnesses, in cluding Col. Hazen, will reiinme their respeative posts of duty. In reviewing the voluminous record of this case, the general of the army affirmed the judg ment of the court that Col. Stanley in writing to Col. Hazen, then abroad, the threatening letter of SepteniWr 6, 1877, and afterward in allowing publication of j the charges in tlie JSew lork Ttmet, committed a breach of discipline. He had a perfect right to prefer charges and specifications, which he had done from New York on the Cth of July, 1877 ; but when advised that the president of the United States had considered them, and had decided that tho best interest of the eervice would not be advanced by a gen eral conrt martial, it was his plain duty to have submitted gracefully. 1 no law officers of the government have decided thut tho United States cannot arraign for trial any officer for offenses committed moro than two years lefore the order for assembling or tlie court, for una rea son the charges against Col. Hazen, can not be inquired into by a general court martial, so that this trial and judgment must stand as a final decision of all mat ters raised in controversy. Both parties will 1)0 careful that the service lie not in jured by a revival of this subject. The Legislative Bill In Committee. Washington, June 18.

Tho excite ment caused in the senate chamlier by the extraordinary and wholly unequaled interchange of uennnciutory and degrad ing epithets between Lamar and Conk ling was intense. Each of the two sen ators, although wrought up the highest pitch of unreflecting anger and resent ment, maintained an outward apoarance of calmness, and both managed to form ulate their astounding insults in phrase ology which kept within the bounds of parliamentary rnles. Tor this reason and also because the senate was taken ut terly by surprise, neither was called to order ; and the whole colloquy was over before the listeners could fully realize to what unpardonablo lengths it had been carried. Both senators spoke ulowly ; but Conkling was especially deliberate in his manner, and threw into his words an amount of scornful and contemptuous omphasis which barlwd every word like an arrow. Lamar's lust ntterauces quiv ered with anger and were accompanied by a disdainful gesture, suggesting the throwing down of a wago of mortal com bat, which he eagerly honed his adver sary would take up. Conkling while speaking stood in the middle aisle and Lamar spoke from a position very near it. Vance, of North Carolina, who like his father is a recognized authority on mutters concerning the code of the duello, occupied a seat alongside of Lamar and mado several suggestions to the latter while Conkling was speaking. Southorn senators in conversation sinco the occurrence universally commend La mar's action as justifiable and even de manded by Conkling's imputation of bud faith onhis part ; and they also confiden tly assort that there can uo no question of his entire readiness to maintain his words with his lifo if necessary. They express doubts whether Conkling will wnd Lamar a challenge, although they say it is of conrsa incumbent upon him to push the matter further, as Lamar gave the lie first. Lamar a friends ex plain that he felt called upon especially to resent Conkling's charge of bad faith on the part of tho democtatio sido of the chamber because it had come to his ears that Conkling had denounced him per sonally. Senator Conkling informs his friends that ho docs not intend to send Lamar a challenge, or any other way to be drawn into a duel, for neither he nor his constituents believe in duelling. Ho also says that Lamar's attact upon him was unprovoked and nncxplainublo upon any personal grounds. (Conk ling's) charge of bud faith having been mado against the wholo democratic sido of tho chamber and was not especially applicable to Lamar, whom, in fact, ho did not have in his mind at all when ut teiing thut remark, although he had pre viously referred to the Mississippi levee bill of which Lamar had charge, as being ono of tho matters that hud consumed the time of the senate to the exclusion of a proper opportunity for the repi.hli cans to debate tho army appropriation bill. Washington, June 20. Following is a correct report of Lamar's remarks in the senate to-day in response to Conkling : It is not my habit to indulge in person alities, but I desire to say to the senator that in intimating anything inconsistent, as he has done, with erfcct good faith, I pronounce his statement a a falsehood, which I rcMl with an unmitigated con tempt that I feel for tlie author of it. Wednesday night's mud throwing en counter between Senators tamar end Conkling, has lecn tho chief topic of comment to-day, and there in still much sioculation as to its possible consequen ces. There is no prospects, however a duel, for Coukling does not recognize tho code and Lamar having giving tlie lio first, is of course under no necessity to notice Conkling's words returning it. Although it is conceded that Conkling will not send a challenge, there are ru mors that he is consulting with friends with view to pushing the nutter furth er in some other way, but as it can hardly lie supposed that he would seek to settle it by a street fight, and especially as La mar is greatly his inferior in physique, these rumors are to be entitled to little credence. A youth of sixteen in Dn Page county, Illinois, fell madly in love with his schoolmistress, aged thirty, but his wise father induced him to give up his sweet heart, with whom he hud planned an elopement to Kansas, for and in consid eration of ' a real, nice double-barrelled shotgun." PACIFIC COAST. A Warm Reception. Ran Fbancihco. June 17. The Acad emy of Sciences tendered a reception to .Lieutenant vmjmxu aim siua oi tne Arctic exploration last evening. There was a larger attendance than usual, both of members and spectators, including many ladies. Dr. H. W. Harkness. the vice president, was surrounded by tlie staff of the JeunneHe. After the chair man had introduced Lieutenant DeLong and staff, a paper on Arctic exploration written by Dr. A. It. ntout, was read Lieutenant DeLong addressed the audi ence briefly, referring to the matter in which private liberality and enterprise was combined with government assist ance to send out an expedition under the best possible, auspices as a national un dertaking. He dwelt upon the present being the first attempt to reach the pole by way of Behrings Straits, and the diffi culties likely to be encountered, and deemed it better not to say at present what they proposed to do, lint hoped to . i r . , do noid in remembrance umu uieir re turn, when a recital of what hod been done will be of greater interest. Mr. Collins, the meteorologist accompanying the party, spoke, expressing tlie greatest confidence in the success of tlie under taking. Bemarks were made by different members of the staff, whereupon the meeting broke up. Ihe vessel is ex pected to sail on the 25th inst. Sentenced to Ran (luentln.

Noble fell from the second story balcony of the Ab batsford House, corner of Broadway and Larkin streets, 30 feet, and died in an hour. Brutal Murder. Nellie Bowlan, a native of New York, agod 25 years, was shot and almost in stantly killed by James Bowlan, her hus band, this morning at her residence on Chestnut street between Mason and Tay lor. Bowlan called on deceased and de manded that she should resume her resi dence with him, which had been broken off on account of an assault made upon her by him a short timo ago, a suit grow ing out of which is pending in the police court. Deceased refused, saying that sho would rather go to Louo Mountain, and thut she would not give up the case. Bowlan then drew a self-cocking pistol aud took deliberate aim at his wifo's breast. She turned to seek safety in flight, when ho fired, tho ball striking her in the small of the back, she ran through the dinning room and kitchen, Bowlun firing a shot after her without effect. On gaining the back yard, the wounded woman took refuge in a wood shod where she was found shortly after by the neighbors in ft dying condition. Beforo her death she made a statement, duly witnessed, to the following purport: Believing that 1 am dangerously injur ed and about to die, I hereby make this my dying declaration : My name is Nel lie Bowlan. Ho came in like a brute and shot mo this morning. " Bowlan after shooting, walked down Chestnut street, but was directly taken into custody and locked up. He said to the ofliuor while on tho way to the prison : " She was my wife and t had a right to shoot her. I hud ought to have Bhot her long ago." Deceased was housekeeper for Henry Schnlor, at whoso house she was killed. She had not lived with tho prisoner for several months. Bowlun had threatened her lifo on several occasions, and has brutally beaten her a number of times, which was tho cause of their separation. Bowlan is a hackman by occupation, con nected with tlie United Carriage Asso- lation. Bowlan' Defence. James Bowlan, who killed his wife this morning, states that when he called on her he accused her of undue intimacy with Schuler, for whom she was acting as housokeojer ; thut Mrs. Bowlun ac knowledged tho truth of the chargo with much bravado and made a motion to open drawer of a bureau, from which, on a previous occasion, she had drawn a pistol uion him. Seeing which movement, and anticipating attact, ho fired upon her. He declined to say anything furth er regarding tho tragedy. Republican State Convention. Sacramento, June 17.

Tbe judicial and army appropriation bills reached the execu tive mansion at 3:30 o'clock. Tbe president bad just left in bis carriage on a virfit to tbe navy yard. The judicial bill will nut receive the president's approval.- ' Political Probabilities. Washihotos, June 22 Rumors are afloat to-day tbat tbe president is wavering Irom bis intention of signing the army appropri ation bill. It is also rumored tbat be now seriously thinks of abandoning his former purpoie to veto tbe judicial appropriation bill; but neither of these rumor can be traced to any authoritative source. While there seems to bs no change in yesterday's outlook of probabilities except tbat the bt lief then almost universally entertainel has till further strengthened, namely, tbat the president will approve tbe army bill and veto the judicial bill, it is also considered quite certain to-day tbat, although in Ihe event of both bouses adjourning without providing tbe Deceetirv ano ojnations for judicial ex Dense, be will reconvene tbem immediately. He will refrain frim calling tbem tor et ber another time if tbey sball persist in reiusai t3 pass an appioc.-ia.ion bill free from riders, but will thereupon close the federal courts and let tbe responsibility rest upon congress. There is, however, scarcely any pioipect of tbis latter contingency arising, as several prominent democrats say in private tbat tbey will at tbe proper time throw all the weight or their influence against a noai sojourn ment which would apparently throw upon .1 .

PRINCE LOOS XAPOLEO. SLAI. Prince Imperial of France, and Heir of Aapoleon slain by tne Zulu. London, June 18. A dispatch from Cape Town, dated June 3d, via Madeira, to-day, says that Frince Louis Aapoleon, Prince Imierial of France accompanied by other olKcers, left Col. Wood's camp to reeonnoiter. Ihe party dismounted in a field, when the enemy crept upon them , .1 XI. I 1 'II- 1 ami assegiuou too prince, Killing mm. His body was recovered. Ihe news oi his death has cast a doom over the city and flags were flying at half mast. A Times correspondent writing from Itotezi Hill on tlie 2d inst. says : The body of the Prince Imperial was discov ered in a field of long gross. There were no bullet wounds upon it, but there were seventeen wounds mado by thrusts. The body was found stripped and the lothes has been taken away. June 20. Following are the additional mrticulars of the death of the Prince Imperial : There were eighteen assagai stabs in the body when found, two of them pisreing the body from chest to back, two in the sido, and one destroying the right eye. A locket with hair, medal lions and reliquary were found around his neck. His face wore a placid expres sion. Ho had evidently ineffectually tried to mount, and the leather of the flop tearing, he run along the path to where he was found. Official accounts say that the prince with Lieut. Carey of the J8th regiment, six men and ono friendly Zulu, left camp at Kelitzi moun tains seven miles beyond Llood river, on the 1st inst, for reconnoisanee. The party halted and unsaddled when ten miles from camp. Just as the prince gave the order to remount, a volley was tired from an ambush in tlie long grass. Lieut. Carey and four of the troopers re turned to camp and reported that the prince and two troopers were missing. At daybreak the cavalry patrol under Gen. Marshall, left to search for the prince and went to the kraals. Ten miles further on thebody was discovered among the long grass 300 yards from the kraal. The body was borne by Gen. Marshall and omcers Urury, Lowe and Stewart of the 17th lancers to meet an ambulance, by which it was then brought hither with an escort. There was a funeral pa rade in the afternoon. Deep sorrow prevails throughout the column. The prince did not mount af ter the attact, his horse being restive, but ran afoot. The corpse will leave, with escort, for transportation home ward. News of the death of the prince reach ed London at a late hour last night. At about 1 o'clock this morning it was cir culated in the lobbies of the houso of commons, when, in reply to inquires, Col. Hanley, secretary of state for war, read the foregoing official teregram. Liord Sydney, an old and tried friend of the imperial family, had left for Chisel- hurst to bread the news to ex -Empress Eugenie. London journals, while deeply de ploring the prince s death, regard it as the end of imM?rialism in France. rnnee Aapoleon, who has become head of tlie line, is a democrat in politics and is distasteful to the entire Bonapartist fol lowing. He has two sons. 17 and 15 years of age respectively. Party loyalty may lasten around the name of one of these sons, but for a time imperial counsels must be distracted and the possibility of return oi the empire appears more shadowy than ever. Another special from South Africa savs that the Prince Imperial had been sent forward by the quartermaster general to sketch a site for tlie next camp. When the volley was fired not a single Zulu was to be seen. The party dispersed and sought safety under cover. The prinoo was never seen alive again. His horse joined Lieut. Carey's party on the road back to camp. Till SKID miXCK. HOW THE SAD HEWS WAS RECEIVED BY EGGB3IE. HI Death Create Profound Sorrow In KnropTh Court of England and Germany to go Into Honmlng-. Political Relation to France. LOhdoh, June 21. Tbe ex-empress Eusni. swooned when she beard of ber son's dtatb and remained insensible for a long time! She rallied somwbat in the evening, but was unable lo see anybody, fllany distinguished visitors called, and many telegrams of con dolence were received. Condition of th Bereaved Emprew. Lou Don. June 21. Tbe ex-em ores Knc-A. nie is sleepless and depressed. Her private secretary teiegrapaea to tne duchess of Suth erland tbis morning tbat she still remained in a semi-conscious condition, and tbt it was imperatively necessary to do tout-thing to rouse ber. The duchess accordingly ttirted fur Chisethunt. A later dispatch states tbat ber condition is improving. A Sensation In France. Paris, Juoe 21. The news of the death of the prince imperial, made a great fensation, and among Bonapartiits it created dismay. Prince Victor, who by political tegument succeeds to tbe titles, is now a student at Ly cec Charlemagne. Even if he is willing to sgree to bis father's exclusion, it is qucst:oa able whether the deceased bad power on Donapartist principles to make such a change. There will also be difficulty on tbe part of leading Bonapartisls to confer with and guide the actions of the young prince, witho-u the consent of his parents. Nevertheless it is. evident that the leaders intend to maintain tbe party organization. Last nigbt at a full silting of Bonapartist senators and deputies, a resolution was adopted declaring that though the prince imperial is dead, bis cause survives.
