As the clerks of that office had almost dis- posed of paymasters accounts, and all the claims made under previous bounty laws, an increase of the force will not probably be ne- cessary. 5 PoLycamy.—The Senate committee on terri- tories have about conciuded the consideration ofa Lillto prevent polygamy in the territory of Utah.

He hoped the resolution oi Mr. Dickey would not The resolution was still under discussion when our report closed, and judging from the speeches on bot! sides, and other indications, a majority of the House is against the adoption of such a resolu- tion at present. Tue Hovarp REsoLuTIOoN PasseD BY THY Hovt£.—The House, this atternoon, by a vote o: 143 ayes to 45 nays, passed the resolution reporte:! js General Banks from the committee on foreign affairs in relation to Dr. John E.

Beit resolved, That, inthe judgment of thi- House, the said John Emilio Heuard was, and is, a citizen of the United States by birth and continued and uninterrupted choice, and, a+ such, is entitled to all and every protection from this government, and, in the opinion o* this House, the President should promptly de- mand his unconditional release and the restora- tion of his property, which has been confiscated to the use of the Spanish government untess it shall be made to ay » upon in- vestigation, to the satisfaction of the executive department, that said Houard had been held for and duly convicted of an offence committed bv him within the jurisdiction of Spain, and has been prosecuted therefor under the authority of law and according to the regular course of pro- ceedings usual in like cases, and that the privi- leges secured by citizens of the United Stater by the 7th article of ihe treaty of the United States with Spain, dated 2th of October, 1795, were neither denied or disregarded on his tri a ExtraorpinaRy Trorring—The Fastest Col in the Wor . Bonner drove his celebrated colt (Startle) yesterday afternoon, on Fleetwood park, a quarter of a mile in thirty-three second- to his road wagon, in the presence of a lar, pumber of gentlemen. The colt was timed by Messrs. Daniel Pti er, John Lovett and severa’ others. No horse of any age has ever trotted when hitched to a road wagon, a quarter of a mile as fast as this, except Dexter, and he mad: it im exactly the same time. A few days ago Startle trotted a half mile toa road wagon at the same park, on a heavy track, in 1:09. Such veteran horsemen as Pellman, Ptifer. Saunders. Roden and Lovett pronounce Startle the most extraordinary trotter that has ever been known.

Mr. Banks, (Mass.,) who was entitled to the closing hour, to address the House. He ee —— in the discussion were vest importance. questions that bad led and even to war itself. The case now was one mainly of fact, that of Dr. Houard’s right to rotnction as an American citizen. He denied that the father of Dr. Houard was a subject or citizen of Spain, and held that if the Spanish authorities had the proof zenship, it was their duty to show it. His American citi: ‘ip had been fully shown, and Seine ioe’ seca aren in relation le it had not been proven that he was ever a com. , and if it had it would not have necessarily made him a Spanish citizen. He insisted that Dr. Houard was an American Fey by birth, and until it was shown that he he was entitled to protection as such citizen, and if the Spanish government asserted the contrary the record could only be with them, and it was their duty to produce it. Dr. Houard, he asserted, was not only known in Cuba as an American physician, but he was licensed as such—a native of Philadelphia. He alluded to the manner of Dr. Houard’s trial, by « court- martial, at a time when it was asserted that the island was in a condition of profound peace, for an alleged offense which was not proven, and which was not worthy, if proven, of the pun- ishment which was inflict: | upon bi witness who testified against him had since said that he testified falsely, under fear. He denied that he had any trial such as was contemplated by the treaty between the Zoverpmentsof the United States and Spain. He claimed that this case was parallel to that of Martin Kozta, and said that if the case of Kozta was before the House, every man who opposed this resolution would vote to impeach thority that protected Kozta. He said that responsibility for the cruelties practiced upon Spaniards, upon Cabans, Chinese, Jay Americans in Cuba rested upon’ this y Had they been English, French, or German subjects, the outrages would never have been perpetrated. Tis government was responsible for the murder of the ten boys who were so era- elly butcbered a short time sinee, and for every drop of blood that had been wantonly shed there during the past five years. At the close of Mr. Bank's remarks, Mr. Am- bler_ moved to lay the resolution and pending amendments upon the table, but subsequently withdrew it, to allow a direct vote upon the question. Mr. Banks asked, and obtained consent, to withdraw his proposed amendment, and said he would support that of Mr. Bingham.

New York, April 26.—The World bas an ed torial this morning, in which it says: “If the Cincinnati convention is wise anc high-toned Charles Francis Adams for the democratic party will endorse that acclamation. I a tion would merely ratify the f of the democratic masses. If Mr. nominated the democratic party will «apport him without waiting for the formal endorsement of their assembled delegates.

A THOUSAND ASSASSINS AT THEIR BLOODY x. St. Lovis, Mo., April 26.—A special from Kansas City gives the details of the brutal more der of Ste Cline and Dutro on a railroad train near Ho! Mo., Wednesday. After the train stopped four of the mob mounted the loco- motive et the engincer with drawn revolvers. The train was then surrounded, and Cline called out, and after some words regard- ing bis connection with the fraudulent issne of Case county bonds, was riddled with bullets, and his ay thrown by the side of the track. Several of the crowd emptied their revolvers into his mangled body. Stevenson was in the b car, and had barred the doors against the mob, but the mob broke in the doors with a log of wood, and poured a yoiley into the body of the judge, killing him instantly. Stevenson's body was dragged out and laid be- tide that of Cline. Dutro, who was in Senger car, was mortally wounded. The train was then allowed to start, but was immediately signalled to stop. The dying man, Dutro, was then di from the coach and thrown down near the bodies of Cline and Stevenson. A report reached Kansas City last night that Judge Forsythe, another of the county justices, had heen shot and his body hanged to a tree. Great excitement prevails throughout the county, and fears are felt that still others will be murdered. The perpetrators of this massa- cre claim that they have a thousand men in their organization. - ne The Administration and the Treat, WHAT THENEW YORK TRIBUNE SAYS ABOUT New York, April 26.—The Tribune says: “V regret to say that there is foundation for thestatement that the administration has already abaudoved its attitude in relation to the Alabama question; that the Secretary of State has written to General Schenck, expressing his regret at the misunderstanding that has arisen, saying that the claims for indirect damager were inserted in the case because we conceived we had a right to include them under the treaty; that the caso cannot be amended or withdrawn because the treaty contained no provision for the amendment of the case except by a counter case, but that we ex no award to be made for them; that we do not wish any; that in the interest both of the United States and England we desire that none be made, and in consideration of the amiable ‘of ours we hope Her Majes- a itd oy = the arbitration to ge If now the British ministry should Tefuse to listem to this humble prayer they are indeed hard hearted.” THE BERALD WANTS SECRETARY FISH RE- MOVED. ‘The Herald calison President Grant to re- move Fish, as Fish’s j it in the case proved unreliable, and bis acts will compromise the nation. 2 The Situation in Spain.
