The House passcd the Senate bill to make available an appropriation of $25,000 to pay the Commiesioner for assessing damages on the Fox ang Wisconsin River improvement after June 80, 1876. The Judiclary Commitite also re- ported a bill to amend thestatutes in relationto dumages for infringement of patents. It pro- vides that the patentee shall only recover damages for one year's infringement after notice of such infringement. 1t gives the Court an option ou the damages. SILVBR BILLS. Pending consideration the morning hotr ex- pired, and the House took advantage of the new rule. which was dictated by the Democratic cauciis to_pass-two bills on'finance. The flrst was the Puyne Silver bill, reported from the Committce ‘on Banking and Currency. It authorizes the Secretary of the Treaéury to {tsue the silver coin in the Treasury to an amount not eXceeding $10,000,000 In exchange for an equal smount of Jegal-lenders, the rofes 56 re- ceived to be ‘kept “ss a special deposit to be issued only for a like amount of fractional cur- rency, which shall be destroyed and credited to the sinking fund. The ationists were not flemed with this bill, apd were amnoyed that he rule which they Bad” dictated in ciucué in order that a bill fur the unconditional repeal of the Specie Resun:{:riqn act might be passed should be made available to present a bill to put io drtdlation the hal silver, ° aud congequently to take a step fotvards resumption. The intlationists ~endcavored in the main to have the bill amended by the ad- dition of a section unconditionally repeating the Resumption act. Inthe course of the debate an officinl statement wae read from the: Treasn- ry Department, showing to June 7 theamount of silver is:gelfl n égdfi:‘lpflan of lrncltlnnzl cnr- Telcy was 3 for payment of currenc Obligations, ks%‘a‘z}lm; total, $8,497.169, . Thers wos'on hand in the Treasiry $5,011,019, and there had been ordered from the mint to the Treasury $2,230,000. The bill was passed by 106 yeas to 79 pays. TiIB SECOND BILL which was passed is what 16 known as the Ran- dall bill, which provides for the further issue of silver coin. It provides that, in addition to thie amount of subsldl;y coin authorized by law to be issued in redemption of fractional carrency, it shall be lawfnl to manufacture at the scveral mints, and issne through the Treas- w¥, such coin to the amotint of $20,600,000. The silver_ bullion required for this purpose is td be purchased from time to time at thé market rae, with any money, in the Treasury not other- g-lx: npgroprlated, und the resulting coin may ¢ issued in the ordinary disbursements of the Treasury, but no purchase of bullion shall be made when the market for the same shail be such as will not admit of the colnage without losd to the Trusm"f, and any gain or seignlor- age arising from this coinage shall be accounted for and paid iuto the Treasury, a8 _provided un- der axisting laws relative to shbsid&r{ colnage; rovided that the amount of money ot any one ime invested in such silyer bullion, exclusive of such resulting coin, shall not exceed §1,000,000. It is 150 enacted that the trade dollar shall not hereaftér be a legal tender, and the Secretary of the Treusury is authorized to limit from time to tithe the cofndge thereof to such an amount a8 he may deem sufficient to méet the demand for the saine. . Several amondinents were offered, but all were rejected. It is argued by Mr. Randall, the frnuier of the bill, it The wlole purpose of the bill was to incrense the amount of silver in cir- culation. He did not believe the business of the country could be properly conducted with Iess than $50,000,000 of subsidiary silver coins. Many business men thought it should.be at Teast $65,000,000. There was, he said, no con- traction in the bill, nor did it suthorize the destruction of grecnbacks. The bill was passed. KERR. THE SPEAKER WILL BE BXONERATED.

Last autumn the Lennie was lying at Antwerp In ballast, waiting to sail for New Orleaus, biit without a créw. The eight prisoners tried at the Big Bailey ware ehgaged by the agent of the vessol o London, who picked them up in Rat- clift highway and took them over to Antwerp. ‘The ship satled on the 24th of Octobér. After she had been at sez a week, mutiny broke out, and the Captain and tle first and second mates were murdered: There is some reason to be- lieve that among the men who got off was the real tingleader in the conspiraey. After thelr sentence, the tondemned men bet baved in an orderly mauner. Theysdmitted that the murders were premeditated, and that the plot to kill the Cuptaln and the officers and take possession of the ship was formed on the very day the voyags began. They all, however, peraisted that tlie original mover in the diaboli- wal scheme, and the rngleader in its execution, was the Euglishman Renkens. ° The tolling of the bell of 8t.

There was no formal procession, nor were the words of the burial scrvice beard, ss usually pronounced by the prison ordindfy. The figures that came forward in a group werc those of thé culprits, sach under dmr%‘% oL a warder in uniform; Alderman and Sherifl Knight, who wore_ his robe and chain; the Under Sherifls, the Governor, thé jail sirgeon, the Sceretary of the Greck Consulate, Mr. G. P. Lascaridi, and the officiating priest, Dr. Hieronymuy Myrian- theus, Archimandrite of the Greek Church, London Wall, The first prisoper was Matteo Cargalis, other- wise Cargoe, aged 80. He was the sivarthiest of the party, and the darkniess of his skin was en- hanced by contrast with the loote white' linen cap which he, like tue other prisoners, wore. Te was much dejected i his look, and kimg his head, but managed to stand firmly with the rope around his neck. On kis vight hand stood Pas- calis Caludis, or Alexander Meletos, aged 33, who was the tallest and burliest of the gang. This man strove persistently to maintain the bravado with which heé had hedrd his sentence. He strugpled onée or twice to smile, showing his white teeth, snd glabeetd £6 right and Ieft with Tis bright dark eyes; and his loud *‘Good by,’* 4s he raised and tried to wave his right hand, sthipped in front 6f lié breast, sounded with sirangs distinctnoss through the jard. He tried to ahake hands with the executioner, who, ‘hoywever, avoided the Frofieted token of forgive- ness, He looked sidel opg at his next compan- ion, Kalda, or George Thomas, familiarly called ‘ Lips,” with évident purpose to cncourage him inashow of nonchalance, and Kalda faintly responded, smiling to the best of his ability, though his features weretwitching and his white cheeks were dabbled with acoldsweat. Theage of this murderer was bfit 2. A still younger uign was Giovanni Carcaris, otherwise” Kalair, ¢alled on shipboard ‘ Joe¢ the Cook.”” His age waa only 21, and as he stood sbrunken together and quaking visibly at the end of the line, he was indeed a dread{ul object to look upen. Facihg the line of wretched murderers, with the roped roimd their bare throats, stood jhe hlacked robed Archimandrite, wearing the pecu- fiar clerical hat which denote his rank and sacded function. In that position he read the sdrvice of the Greck Church. Joe the. Cook fainted before the bolt was shot, and the bodies dropped, and ‘he setrded to bedead as he fell. " The Arcliimandrité, contfary £o tRé prac- tice of English clergymen on such occasions, continued rmllin% prayers while the bodies quivered below.

FIVECHILDREN BURNED TO DEATH Detroit Free Press, June 9. About 1mile back from Lake 8t. Clait, at 8tony Point, some 15 miles above Windsor, stood a rather large farm house which was the regidence of Francis Mailloux, his wife and seven children, the oldest 17 years of age, and the youngest 8 months old. The house was built of hewed logs with clapboards on the outside, and consisted of a maiu part with two stories and & kitchen addition at the rear end. Inthe front part of the lower story was a bed-room, in which Mr. Mailloux, his wife, the baby, and the oldest child were sleeping. The upper story contained two large rooms which were separated by a small bail and stairway. In the front room, up-stairs, the remaining five children were sleeping. Be- tween the stairway and the bedroom occupied by the parcents was the dining-room, and the lower lunding of the stairway was between the dining-rooin and the kitchen. About 9 o'clock Wednesday night DMr. Mailloux and his wife were awakened by the struggles of the baby, which was in the bed with them, and immediately they discovered that thefr room was fllled” with smoke. To spring from thé Led with the baby in thtir arms and to awaken the oldest clild wus but the work of an instant. Then they opened the door into the diufvg-room with the intention of Zoing Gut at the side-door and also to awaken the ciiidren up-stairs. There they were mét by a wall of fire extending across the opposite side of the dining-ro om and driving them back with its awful heat.. Clostug the dour, Mr. Maillons passed through the Ledroown and parlor and out st the front door, followed by his wife with the baby and eldest child. Taking them 0 a safe distunce from the house Mr. Mailloux turned to give the alarm to the remainder of his family, and smw a small, quivering:flame struggling through the roof, which was com=- pletely overshadowed with thick and dense volunies of smoke. Then it was that he saw a sight calculated to shake the stoutest heart. The chamber became suddenly lighted, and he could "see that jt was fllled with smoke. Still noie of the childten appeared. He weut to the side door and found the stairway a mass of fire. He returned to the front door and dashed into the room wild with fear and for a minute was lost to sight. When he returned ils hands were badly hurned and his halr, whis- kers and eyebrows were singed. He was met by his wife and together they 10oked at the chamber window. There they saw indistinetly through the smoke, the forms of their children fruntical- Iy waving their hangds and feebly struggling to reach the sash. One by one they disappear until only two remained in ::FM, and just then & pane ol glass Was shattered, the fragments as they flew being followed by & cloud of smokeé, whith hid the window for several minutes, dur- ing which time Mr. afid Mrs. Meilloux could only watch, hoping that from the dark canopy above thefr children would drop into theiroutstretched arms. The minutes séemed hours; the sus- pense was awftil and only the rush sad rear of the flames wus heard. Suddenly, with a sha and ghort crush of glass, the window above their heads, where but a short time before they had scen thelr children, sent forth a huge, hot bar of fiame, driving thé now thoroughly distracted parents away from benedth it and’telling with terrible brevity the sad fate of their little ones. All that could be hid been done by the pareuts, and returning to the two eurviving children they gave themselves over completely to their grief, where they were found shortly after by their neighbors. ~The nearest neighbor lived hulf a tnile away and it is probable that no assistatée wonld have arrived had it not been for Hector Predhomme, of Windsor, who, while riding about a mile away, suw the flames and gave-the alarm. Soon there were fiftcen or Twenty persons at the scene, and while some of them attended to the ngr[ef-smckcn parents the others trned their attention to extinguishing the flames. After an lonr’s hard work thé fire was out. Then began the sad search for the bodies. Last seen near the front window, the search for the children began st that point, but they' iveré not there. At last, In a cornér of thé room, about 15 fect away from the wine dow, were found clustered togethiér in a; sickening, horrible heup, the remains of the five unfortunate ones. They were not distinguish- able, there being’no clothing, nothidg but bones and Eurtiuns of limbs. The details arc too horrible to relate, but may be realized when it is stated that when collected they were placed in an ordinary flour barfel and occupled about balf the space therein.” It is not known how or where the fire origi- nated, but it S Supposed that it began 1a the kitchen. - Mr. Mailloux and his wife are both badl; burned about the face and afms, and 25 yel have not been in condition to relate their frantic efiorts to save the lives of their children; but that they did struggle hard is plainly shown by the sévere mature of thelr wotinds.
