There is a marked difference between the Murphy movement and any other temper- ance organization ever started.

ILLINOIS LEGISLATURE Bill Stirs Up More Angry Passiona. Spectal Ditpatch o The Tribune. SprixorizLp, lil. May 19.—The General Revenne bill—in the amendment to which the House refused to concur—came up on the order of House messages in the Senate this morning. Thercon the Senate Chamber became the thea- treof such excitement as attends this bill at every stage, and which stirs up all the bile and bad temper and dirt that is here and hereabouts. But this morning more than the usual stirring up occurred. Sosoon as the bill was called, Mr. Krome moved to postpone until Tuesday. - Lost—Aryes, 13; noes, 27. Mr. Lee moved to recede from the Senate amendment. Mr. Krome moved to postpone untii2:30p. m Mr. Joslyn moved to amend by making the postponement until the Fourth of July. MIr. Robinson, of Cook, moved the previous question be ordered. Carried—ayes, 275 nocs, 3. Mr. Joslyn’s motion was then put and lost— ayes, 3, nocs, 24. b Mr. Krome’s motion to postpone until 2:30 p. m. was also lost—ayes, 14; noes, 20. Mr. Krome moved to adjourn until 10:20 Mon- dar. Lost—ayes, 122 noes, 24 Tpon Lec’s motion to recede, the first of the Scnate amendments was read. It was that pro- viding for the taxation- of the **intangible property " of incorporated companies, if any, in excess of the valuc of the tancible property, which amendment has been repeatedly printed in Tue TRIBUNE. 3tr. Joslyn asked to have the amendment read azain. Mr. Robinson, of Cook, objected. The dlerk had acted in compliance with the rules. He ob- jeeted because the demand for second reading was made for delay merely. The amendment was printed and before the 3enator who made the demand for the sccond reading. L Mr. Joslyn—I don't propose to be gagged in that way. Itis my right to have the amend- ment read. 1demand it. Mr. Robinson—I deny that it is a matter of right under the circumstances. The demand is not made in zood faith. 3r. Joslyn—I say when he sars did not make the demsnd in good faith he isanin- famous liar. The President (Mr. Plumb acting pro tem.) bammered the desk with his gavel, cries of “QOrder!™ and *Sit down!” were raied, and there was a deal more than the ordinary uproar, amidst which Josiyn continued, shouting at the top of his voice— l.m Lny if he says that, he is a dirty dog and 3 7! And in the geperal turmoil the remainder of the sentence was lost. Mr. Moderwell—1 move that the Sergeant-at~ Arms be instructed to remove this man, who refuses to obey the order of the Chair. Mr. Joslyn—Let him tryit. Itell youIwill Dot be put down. When the excitement had subsided a little, Mr. Robinson, of Cook, gave notice that he should demand that apology be made, and son:;_mlng was said about taking down the words. ‘The turmoil subsided a little, when Mr. Joslyn rose and said he desired tospologize to the Senatc for the langmage nsed. The provo- cation wss small, he confessed, and be wished to withdraw the words. He should not have been provoked at the gentleman from Cook— everybody knew what be (the gentleman from Cook) was. Mr. Robinson. of Cook—I claim that the apology is insufiicient. 1t was not the apolozy that was due to tne Senate and that was due to himself. Mr. Joslyn—I apolorize to the Senate, not to the gentleman. Wecan settle or matter out- gide. And again the Presidentpro tem. rapped Mr. Joslyn down. But the filibustering contin- ned, and at every opportunity Joslyn denounced the *gaz™ that was put on. them by the pre- vious question. Finally the roll was called on the motion to recede from the “intangible property ”” amend- ment, and the Senate by a vote of 11 ayes to 18 noes refused to recede. ! ~ ITEMS OF INTEREST.

ATLANTA, Ga., May 19.—Representative busi- pess men of Western citles arrived here this morning, from Charleston, and were reccived and entertained by representative citizens.

Stnsationalists Kow Pitling Blaine and Garfield Against the President. Nevada Jones Said to Have Undergone a Change in His Financial Views, Special Dispaich o The Tridune. WasmiNGros, D. C., May 19.—It is very evi- dent that the Tilden managers have by no means abandoned their intention of attempt- ing to secure some legislation which will make it possible for Tilden to try the title to the Presidency at an early day. Occasionally some f those who are near to Tilden mysteriously bint thata planis being considered which is likely to accomplish their purposes. It is certain that thosc who make these state- ments have fsith in them, and it is quite as certain that no scheme which can be de- vised will ever become alaw. Asapart of this law it appears that Pelton, in the name of his uncle, since the extra session was postponed, has again undertaken to provide some means by which foxy David Dudley Field can be returned to Congress. 1t is said that, as a means to pro- mote this plan fu Congress, an alliance between the Tildenites and the Republican implacables has been suggested. SENSATIONAL. The Democratic correspondents, for want of news, have started o sersationalstory that Gar- ficld. if it should appear that he hasnochance to Dbe clected Speaker, will join Blaive in an attack upon the Administration. The recent publica- tion of pretended details of a letter written by the President to Garfiela with respect to the Speakership in the Senatorship canvass, certain- 1y did not come from Garfield. THE BLACK HILLS. Adams, Postmaster at the Black Hills, writes that the Post-Oflice business of that place is very rapidly increasing, and that it is diflicult to find accommodations for the Government. DISTRICT TAXATION. The freedmen occupying the lands given them by the Freedmen’s Bureau arc most of them entirely unable to pay the s}nednl taxes assessed upon their lands to pay for tbe four-million- dollar Shepherd Ring loam, and their little homes are in aanger of confiscation by the Tax-Collector. CHAMBERLAIS. - Tv the Western Associated Press. On Monday Jast Secretary Shermau tendered the appointment of Solicitor of the Treasury to ex-Gov. Chamberlain, at the Instanee of the President, who also urged its ac- ceptance. The Governor declined, however, on account of profestional enzagements, regarded more advantageous professionally and pecuni- arily. The Governor had an interview with the President to-day, and leaves to-night for South Carolina to close up his private busioess. ABMT MEDICAL DEPARTMENT. Surgeons James R. Smith, J. J. ‘Woodward, 7.°C. Gillings, and William C. Spencer, United States Army, have been ondered to Chicago to represent the army at the annual meeting of the American Medical Association. MUST TAKE THE RISK. The Secretary of War has issued an order say- ing, “ Employes for whose payment no appro- priation_has been made for the mext scal vear will be allowed to continue om duty only in cases where their services are absolutely necet -, and ordered by the proper suthorizy, and where they will stipulate they do so voluntarily and without contract or sgree- ment to be paid. Persons rendering services without centract or- agreement may be fur- nished with a certificate showing the time for which service is rendered, but the holder has 1o claim for compensation unless Congress shall make - the appropriation therefor. — Quarter- masters’ and Paymasters’ clerks, etc., are af- fected by this order. A SLIGET DIFFERENCE. Another telegram was received at the Inter- nal Revenue oifice to-day from Collector Aills, at Lynchbarg, in which he says: ¢ The shoot- ing affair in that district recently, resulted in the shooting of four {ilicit distillers and one ctizen, and not in mortally wounding of one and of the shooting of four United States * offi- cers, as was at first supposed.” RESIGNED. Edrard F. Beals, whoarrived at bis home in this city s few days ago, tendered his resigna- tion as United States Minister to Austris, to take effect upon the appointment of his suc- cessor. i . PEDBRAL APPOINTMENTS..=. ... Col. J.3D. Brady, a nativelof Yirginia, %ho served in the Union army, was to-day appointed Collector of Interna) Revenue for the Second Virginia District, in place of George 8. Richards, originally of Maine, but who has. been holding the office in Virginia for the last twelve years. This is the first appointment of the kind made by the President, and it is supposed to indicate the policy of preference for toe native Repub- licans in appointments_to office in the South. Both of the above-named gentlemen are Repub- i . lcans. James H. Mills was to-day appointed Secretary of Montans, vice James Callowa; SUIT FOR PRIZE-MONET- The Supreme Court of the District of Colum- bia vesterday decided the celebrated suit of Admiral Porier, and the officers and men of the North Attantle squadron, for prize-money on account of the capture of Richmond. " The Court unapimously reversed the former pro- ceedings, and dismissed all the libels. The libel- ants still have the privilege of appealing to the Supreme Court of the United States. JONES' FINANCIAL VIEWS. Special Dispaich to The Tribune. BALTIMORE, May 19.—A special from Wash- ington says Senator Jones, of Nevada, who has been one of the foremost of hard-money advo- cates, seems to have backslided, and is credited with saving that he does not believe the time will ever come when gold specie payments can be resumed. The Senator is very anxious to have silver made the universal circulating me- dium. He says that, in his belief, it will be im- l.)osslhle to secure from Conrress any additional egislation to carry_out the provisions of the Resumption act of 1575, and holds that, with- out additional legislation, that act amounts to nothing. MORTON FAVORS JATES. . Dirsateh to New York World. WASHINGTON, May 16.—In a letter written upon business matters to a friend in_this city, Senator Morton incidentally commends the Ad- ministration without a direct reference either to jts course towaras the South or its' so-called Cirlil-Service Reform policy. It Is not a letter intended to be made public in part or in whole, and the person to whom it is address declines to allow any one to scc it or to state what its contents are, declaring at the same time that the letter is not devoted to political ucstious. It is ascertainea, however, that Mr. orton states in this letter that he has Jearned that Mr. Blaine intends to pursue an opposite course from himself; which indicates unmistak- ably that the Indiana Senator is as much in favor of the Administration’ as the Maine Senator is ’ovgloscd to it. Morton’s friends here say that the outgivings in_this private let- ter precede, doubtless, some public utterance, cither in the form of a public letter or specch, jodorsing all that the Hayes party have done. HALE VS. BLAINE. There Is no longer any doubt of the break-up in the Mainc delezation. The breach has been widening sioce March, when the quarrel arose over ex-Secrctary Morril’s appointment as Collector of Portland. Mr. Eugenc Hale, who has been the Fidus Achates of Blaine for so many years, now sets up for himselfand does not propoze to walk in the shadow of his Senator any longer. Since his arrival here last weck Hale has stated on several occasions that he thor- oughly approved of the course which the Ad- ministration had parsued, and exhibited consid- crable independence in making this statement, as much as to say that Mr. Blaine might make the most of it. He met Blaine on Monday for the first time since Congress adjourned, and it is reported that there were some very hot words over the situation, for two who have been suck close political and personal friends for so IDaDy years. —_———— SIMEON.

Persons suffering from Catarrh, who have become sufficiently disgusted with snuffing, injecting, inhaling, and smoking for that complaint, are respectfully invited to an ac- quaintance with the only treatment yet dis- covered or even attempted that RADICAL- LY CURES the disease. A more stupid as- sumption never came from the lips or pen of the most illiterate empiric than the pre- tended curability of Catarrh with local means, no matter what, or how applied. Every educated physician well knows that all morbid secretions come from the blood; tolearn what elements are deficient in the blood of the Citarrhal subject, and how to supply those elements in the relative pro- portions in which they exist in the blood of the healthy subject, is what constitutes the rational treatment and offers the only cp.nnee of cure.
