Tur; Grand Duke Nicholns, the brother of the late Czar and uncle of the present one, whosearrest near Moscow was announced about two weeks ago, has been sentenced to imprisonment for life, his connection with ihe Nihilists' plots having been clearly estab- lished, or at least in a monner to satisfy his Iwperial nephew. Post-Orrice robberies are becoming alarmingly numerous. Two were reported yesterday morning, and now comes the news that & gang of burglars broke Into the Post- Otlice nt Camargo, Pa., Tuesday night, and took the safe out of the butlding and blew It open. The explosion awakened the Post- master, who discharged his shotgun at the burglurs, and they left without any plunder.

A, Senccal, was tho boss of tho *‘den.”” Mr. Senecal feels agarieved, and wants $100,000 damages for the injury dons his character. Mr. Grynor will be hardly called on to pay that amount, and it Is probable Mr, Senccal would be willing to nccept & mueh smablor suin. Tuw European Governmeats, with the probable oxception ot Germany, are notquite so anxious to entertain the proposal of Rus sia for & conforenco on tho political refugee question as they were ropresonted to be when the proposal was first talked about.

This doclslon 1s In direct conflict with & declsion rendered in the Unitpd States Court at Baltiniore some time ago by Judge Terrot, aud the Seccretary of the Tress ury resolved to appeal from the New York declslon to the Supreme Court, ‘The lmporters,” with & 'degros of sub- - The Chicage Daily Tri lime audaotty for which th hitherto received credit, had the c dence'to ask Beeretary Windom to recélve a -deputalion which was prepared to hdvance argiinents .why the appeal should not ba taken.

Sle clalimed separation on the ground of cruelty, alleging that she was confined In the Elgln -Insane Asylum, whereshe was erueily treated, at the instign- tion of her husband. The evidence of o former lnate of the Elgin Institution went to shiow that the treatment accorded to In- niates therawas none of the best.

He left all his. prop~ erty to his nephew, Coningsby Ralph Disraell, and by the terms of the will the Huchenden estate Is strictly entailéd In the nle line. Male heirs failing, it goes to tha fomale branch of the family on condition thatthe successors of such helrsshall assunie the namo of Disraeli Instend of thelr own, The Lotidon Ttimnes, editorially commenting on this phase of the will, ends by asking rather gushingly: *What shall be the future of family and home ,a generation ‘hencef? Wil the owner of Hughenden be a plain country gentleman, or will a new Disraelfl emerge from polities in the twentleth century to dazzle the multitude and selzo the Lelm of power?’ The Thun- derer wiil have to pause for a reply. [ sttt Tar Republican Senators held a caucus last evenng, when the question of the dend- lock, the President’s nominatious, execu- tive sasslons, and other matters ;were dis- cussed,” Tho general, in fact the unnni- mous, feeling was that the cffort to elect Senate officers should be persevered In, s it would notdo at’ this time to yleld to the Tninority,—there was too great a * principle’. ‘at stake. Desides,. it was agrebd ‘that the ‘Ltepublican Senators owed It to tha party and tha country that they should sustain and cncourage the Independent imovement §i the' Southeru - Btates. It' was held, - how- ever, that n delenmination to - pursue the course outlined was mnot Incompatitile Wwith executlve sedslons, and there seemed to be n general feellng that the Presidentlnl’| nominintious and the Chinese treaties shoutd be ncted on very soon. The caucus wis quite harmonlous, No formal action was tnken, however, and the whole matter was referred to n committeo, which will report at a future meetlog. A BRADLAUGH presented himself at the desk of the Spenker of the llouse of Commons yesterday and offered to take tho customary oath. Objection was atouce ralsed by.the Torles, and Bradiangh was obliged to with- draw to the barof the House. Mr. Labou- chere,whochnamplons Bradlaugl’s cause with charncteristic zeal and courage, then asked Mr. Gladstone whether the Governinent would give him any facilities for pushing his bill providing for the substitution of an afrmatlon for an onth In the case of those persons who are elected to Parliament and who have conscientious scruples ngainst making oath, and he added that if facllities were granted Mr. Bradlaugh would net press his claim to his seat pending the dis- cussion of the bill. ‘Mr, Gladstone replied that ho could not well give the desired fuclll- ties, owing to- the urgent charncter of tho Irlsh Lland blll, but afterwards modified his statement by spylng that he would pernit the bill to bo dis cussed at nurning sittings of the Commons, This scemed to satisfy Mr, Labouchere and Mr, Rylands, another of Bradlaugh's chnmnplons. 1t ls probable, therefore, that the nolsy atheist will subside for a while, The success of Labouchero's Oaths blll, however, seems very doubtful. 1t will bo stubbornly reslsted by all the Torles and some Whigs in the Commons, and it is moro than likely that ft will ba thrown out by the Lords. The Government cau hardly afford to make It a party measure, as such a course would certainly Inure to the advantage of the Torles, who have already ovinced a decided fnclination to make polit- ical capital out of it, —— MICHIGAN LEGISLATURE, Bpecial Dispateh to The Uhicage Triduns, Lansing, Mich, April 21,~The Sonato has been ungaged noarly all day on tho Tax bill, and the prospeot seoms goud for sevoral days’ more dobate on the question.

The Itepublican Senators .were in caucus from 10 to 12 and from 2 untl 3, and without having determined whether or not they wiil hold executive ses- slons. Unusunl “paina have been, taken to prevent the newspapers from giving publicity to the proceedings of the caucus, ** Wo are determined,” sall one lending Senator, **that the public shall know nothing abbut our de- liberatlons, except so far as shall be npparent by the results,and beyond that we think that . the public. has no right to Inquire.” The ‘Republican Senntofs have thus- once wore adopted .

THESE FIVE HOURS wore spent In~debate, wmuch of it very enrncst and animated. The lenders on both sldes were' determined. The two sides may be divided into Administration and antl-Administratlon Senators, for it Is by that designation that they will become known 1t this ‘contest continues Indefinitly, as the anti-Administration wing to-doy destred.
