We visited the new jail, (of course of our own free will.) Itis a good building, and appeared to have about as many boarders as the hotels We have one suggestion to make to the county court and that is to cut out at least one half the trees in the court house yard. It would make a prettier yerd iv a few years, if two thirds of them were taken out, and the remaiuder topped. We were going to suggest thut they have some repairs done on the court house. The treasuret’s office, sheriff's office aud court room look bad for as wealthy a county as Bates, but we almost douvt the propriety of do ing much repairing on the old build ing. We need a new court house badly, and while the county may not be in condition to build one just now, we think, justas soou as pos sible, the old one should be torn down (if it don’t fall down,and a pew work oue built, that would be a credit to!

Appropriation Bills Continue to Have Right-of-Way. Washington, D. C, March 11.—In accordance with the agreement en tered into Friday, the Senate will devote the major portion o! this week to the consideration of the Bland seigniorage bill, which is to be finally disposed of by vote at 2 o'clock Thursday, if Senator Allisou’s motion to recousider should fail of adoption, as it most likely will fail. The agreement for consideration of the Bland bill does not preclude the routine work of the Senate, which is confined to the time before 2 o'clock in the day, and it is probable many of bills on the calendar, upon which no division of sentiment is’ probable, will be taken up and pass ed during this time, and.also, after the seigniorage bill is disposed of on Thursday, and the remaining days of the week if the Senate should not adjourn over. There are no an nounced speeches on the seigniorage bill. It is probable that there will be very little on the part of the friends of the bill, as they feel con fident of its passage. Appropriation bills wili to have right-of-way in the House | this week. The sundry civil bil’, which will be the unfinished busi ness when the House meets to-mor- row carries $32,306,928, $9,409, 928 less than that of last year. It will probably require four days to dispose of this bill, the two items} that will provoke the most oppusi- tion being the appropriations for the geological and the cuast and geodetic survey. After the sundry civil bill is disposed of either the military cr consular and diplomatie appropriz tion bill will cousume the balance of | the week. The the elections committee are very anxious to inter rupt the consideration of the ap members of propriation bills with the contested | — e‘ection cases, but the managers be lieve the Republicans will dewand a | quorum of Democrats to unseat a Republican, and as many members are out of the city this must block Progress in the House for a week. It kas been deemed best. therefore, to push the appropriation bills upon which there is no political division as rapidly as possible and allow the struggle over partisan matters to trail along afterward.
