The House elected Represen- tative Keifer ot Ohio, as its Speaker. Randall was the Democratic caucus nominee, and Ford, of Missouri, Greenback nominee. Although Campbell, one of the contestants for a seat in Congress as delegate from Utah, is a Democrat, yet the Republicans will support his case when the question arises. This matter, which will come up, promises to bring out a full party vote. Mr. C. M. Clay s in the Ken- tucky Live Stock Record, that the finest carriage horses he ever saw are the Russian Orloffs. They are heav- ier than English and American hor- ses, and are blacks and dapple grays. Mr. Clay advises breeders to import that stock. soon Senator Beck has received the caucus nomination of the Demo- crats in the Legislature of ‘Kentucky for re-election to the Senate. , Sena- tor Beck is no ordinary man, and his being sent back to Washington 1s an exhibition ot wisdom on the part of the people of Kentucky. Since the official figures of the Virginia election have been made up, Republicans cannot glory as much over the prospect of Mahone crush- ing the Democratic party there as they did. The official vote shows large Democratic gains, and in a straight fight will win every time. Senator John S. Williams of Ken- tucky recently sold a crop of tobacco raised by himself in that State, which is said to have been the most extra- ordinary one for a crop lot ever sold in the-Cincinnati market.

THE PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE. | municate to Congress. ‘To the Senate and House of Representa- tives of the United States. ‘An appalling calamity has befallen i the American people since their chosen representatives last met in the halls where you are now assembled. We might else recall with unalloyed content the prosperity with which throughout the year the nation has been blessed. Its harvests have been plenteous, its varied industries have thrived, the health of its peo- ple have been preserved, ithas main- tained with toreign governments the undisturbed relations of unity and peace. For these manifestations of His tavor we owe to Him who holds our destiny in his hands, the tribute ot our grateful devotions. To that mysterious exercise of will which I taken from us the loved and _illustri- ous citizen who was but lately the head of the nation, we bowin sorrow and submission. The memory of his exalted character, his noble achievements and of his patriotic life, will be treasured forever, fora sacred possession of the whole peo- ple. Theannouncement of his death drew trom foreign governments and people tributes of sympathy and sorrow which history will record, as and the federation of mankind, The feeling of good-will between our own government and_ that of Great Britain was never more marked than at present. In_ recognition of this pleasing fact I directed on the occasion of the late Centennial cele- bration at Yorktown, that a salute be given to the British flag. signal tokens of the kinship of nations | | the surv Save for the correspondence to which I shall refer hereafter in re- lation to the proposed canal across the Isthmus of Panama, little has oc- curred worthy of mention in the di- plomatic relations of the country. Early in the year the ‘‘Fortune Bay Claims” were satisfactorily set- tled. Two exhibitions soon to be presented to Congress will disclose the readiness of our countrymen to make successful competition in distant fields ot enterprise. Negotations for an international copyright convention are in hopeful progress. * The surrender of Sitting Bull and his force upon the Canadian frontiers has allayed all apprehension, al- though bodies of British Indians still cross the border in quest of sustain- ance. Upon this subject a_corres- pondence has been opened which promises an adequate understanding. Our troops have orders to avoid meanwhile all collisions’ with alien Indians. No new question respecting the status of our naturalized citizens in Germany have arisen during the year and causes of complaint, es- pecially in Alsace and Loraine, have practically ceased through the liber- al action of the imperial government m accepting our often expressed view on the subject. The applica- tion of the treaty of 1868 to the lately acquired Rhemish provinces has received very earnest attention. A definite and lasting agreement on this point is confidently expected. The participation of the descen- dants of Baron Von Steuben in the Yorktown festivities and their subse- quent reception by their American kinsmen evinced the ties of good- will which unite the German people and our own. The presence at the Yorktown celebration of repre- sentatives of Lafayette and of his gallant compatriots who were our allies in the Revolution, has served to strengthen the spirit of the good- will which has always existed be- tween the two nations. The British government by paying in full the sum of £15,000, most of which has already been distributed, as the terms of the settlement in- cluded compensation for injuries suffered by our fishermen, at Aspee ! Baythere has been retained from the gross award a sum which is deemed adequate for these claims. Our intercourse with Spain has been friendly. An agreement con- cluded in February last fixe for the labors of the Spanish and | American claims commission. The ! Spanish government has been re- | quested to pay the awards of the | commission and will, it is believed, accede to the request as promptly and courteously as in former oc- casions. By recent legislation one rous fines have been imposed upon American shipping in Spanish and Japan, entered Manila m_ distress and is there forced to lie confiscated | under Spanish revenue laws for an alleged shortage in her transhipped “argo. Though efforts for her re- lief have thus far proved unavailing, it is expected that the whole will be | adjusted in a friendly spirit.

Austin, Tex., December 6. —Four armed men, mounted on powerful horses, raided and robbed the store | of R. W. Hubbard, thirty miles be- low this city. Five hundred dollars were taken from the sate, besides numerous articles taken from the store. Hubbard and his clerk were forced to give up their w atches. This occurred just before dusk Sat- urday.

Larrabee and Elmwood Jarrett, ex-treasurer of Hyde Park and Lake school district. Liarrabee was indicted for iailing to turn over $20,000 held by him, and Jarrett for alleged defalcation of $60,000. The Garfield Hospital. Washington, Dec. 7.—Gen. Sher- man and the executive committee of the Garfield memorial hospital pro- ject have received most encouraging reports from taken everywhere in the enterprise. Committees are formed in many principal cities of Europe, and even in Cairo, Egypt, to collect money as testimonials of love and respect for the late President. Kenfer Not a Stalwart. Washington, D. C., December 7- —Whoever regards Keifer’s eleva- tion to the speakership a Stalwart victory and an anti-Stalwart defeat, will betore the session is far advanc- ed change his ideas very decidedly. General Keifer has very notably re- trained from making any alliance or promises, and particularly with the Stalwarts, for of all the districts of | Ohio, that one from Keifer hails has | the fewest Stalwarts of any Republi- can district in the State. Don Cam- eron has received the credit of elect- ing Keifer, but the salient fact is that | Cameron, looking the ground over, discovered that Keifer was the only candidate that could be elected with the Pennsylvania votes. He there- | fore swung the vote of his state for Keifer, nota difficult thing to do, Keifer not being a stalwast, and at the same time gained the credit of achieving the victory for himself and | the stalwarts. The latter, however, | are just beginning to waken to the! | fact that they have been badly sold} in the speakership business.
