It is rumored that John Morrissey has "kicked the bucket," but the ru mor lacks confirmation. Lord Derby has notified the Chi nese government that the destruction of the Woosung railway will be re garded as an unfriendly act. It does n't appear to be altogether friendly, to act so. Sitting Bull recognizes the Queen as his "great mother." This is the hearty joke of the season. "Tell her I will be a good man; that my people will be good," is the speech of the old reprobate. If Queen Yic. will take 'em she can have all our "injins." Jim Mills has been confirmed as secretary of Montana. That beats us There is not a livelier blackmailer i the United States than James H. Mills. We know the son of a sea cook. He is the man that wrote up "Hippie" Mitchell for the Pittsburg Leader, published by Pittock, brother of the OresKmian. Speaker "Randall has decided to make a statement of the status of Bland's bill passed Monday, embody ing the following points. Bland, a week ago, got the floor and had the clerk read a bill which was nearly the same as that of last session. The house then adjourned. On Monday this week the speaker declared Bland's bill was in order as unfinished busi ness. Meantime Bland had taken from the reading clerk of the house his bill which he had no right to do, and Monday sent up a new bill with a different title, prepared by the bank ing and currency committee and con taining an additional section relative to free coinage, which the Bland bill did not have. This fact did not ap pear at the time. Now the question arises whether the latter bill was ever passed. The records are inconsistent at present, for Bland's second bill was not unfinished business, under which head it passed. The house was not of course deceived as to the subject mat ter of the bill, for it was read twice; but the question arises if the peculiar circumstances do not render its pas sage a nullity. A Washington dispatch of the 9 th says the bill introduced to-day by Senator Mitchell proposes to grant eight years extension of time for the construction of the line of the North ern Pacific Railroad via. Portland Ore gon, to Tacoma, on Puget Sound. It does not extend the time for the com pletion of the north branch line across the Cascade mountains to Puget Sound. The lands hitherto with drawn on the route of this branch, if not carried by the company within the time prescribed by the existing lav, are to be restored to the public domain to be disposed of like other public lands under the direction of the 'secre tary of the interior, and in lieu of the amount of bonds thus freed an equal number of acres are to be granted to the Portland, Salt Lake and South Pass Railway company (an Oregon company) along their line from Umatilla to Salt Lake, provided they comineace work within six months from the enactment of this bill and construct 25 miles of road the first year and not less than 50 miles annually thereafter, and complete the whole road within four years. The bill provides that the road between Umatilla and Portland isto remain a common road for the use of both com panies upon terms to be fixed if nec essary by the arbitration commission to be appointed by the president of the United States 11 is provided that the extensions and privileges to be granted to the N. P. Co by this bill shall bj upon the express condition that it shall in six months from the passage of the act commence the con struction of the road either at Port land or at some point between Uim tilla and the mouth of Snake river and construct and equip eastward in one year thereafter not less than 40 and at least 50 miles euch succeeding year until completed. If these re quirements are not complied with the ' Oregon corporation is to have the j right to build the common road above referred to, and be entitled to the aid now provided, by building 20 miles within a year after three months' fail ure on part of the Pacific road to commence it and 25 miles annually thereafter. This is possibly Capt Conner's last trip to Oregon until lie returns from New York with the ''State of Oregon'' new steamship. The run from 'Frisco to Astoria, 50 hours, has never been beaten.
