SENATE.—After our report closed— A bill was passed creating a sinking fund for the liquidation of the debt due the gov- ernment by the Kansas lacific railroad com. ny. A bill was also passed creating a board of Pacific railroad commissioners. Charles Fran- cis Adams and Albert Fink and an officer of the engineers, to be named by the President, are to be the ‘commissioners, who are to be paid $525 each per month. HOUSE.—After our report 1 Mr. Burchard offered a re: jon that no subse egnt Congress and neither House has jurisdiction to re the action of the joint meeting of the Forty-fourth Congress in de- claring the result of the late presidential elec- tion, and that “any attempt by either House to annul or disregard such action, or the titl= to oflice arising ‘therefrom, and is disapproved by th resolution passed by a vote of 21 21 nays. Mr, Hartridge, from the judiciary commit- tee, th br sented an adverse report on the miiell bill, together with a resolution de- cating that the two houses of the Forty-fourth Congress having declared the result of the late presidential electio is no power in iuny subsequent C prse Uh: laration, nor ean a h power be exe yeas to by the courts of the d Siates, or any tribunal that Congress can creaie under the constitution.” The resolution was adopted— yeas 224, 1: 1 x An eveniig se ‘sion was held for the consid- eration of per fon bi A YANKEE“ Beating Down” IN Panis Gn opening day, while waiting for our ea riage to come outof the interminabie file on the Avenue de Mangnan, the attention of my- self and companions was called to an ani- mated discussion between a party of Ameri- sand the keeper o! pstaural Oar fet countryman, Who appeared to bea pros- perous mechanic abroad, and was accom- panied by two stout ladies, probably his wife and her mothe ‘aS anxious to enter the hal of the restaurant, but was refused admission because the land ord insisted that the trans: Attantie visitor had not paid him the price agrecd on for the use of two small bedrooms. “Why, confound your picture id the me- chanic, “you said you'd take allia for five franes, and now you won't stick to your bar- gain.” The restaurant man held up his rigat hand three times and tried to explain that the charge was five francs apiece.

Thousands wear continually, without any ill effect, the cheaper class of jewelry with brass wires, while if others wore the same article for a few days they would be troubled with sore ears: or, in other words, the acids contained in the system would so act on the brass as to produce ill results. Instances have oceurred in which articles of jewelry of any grade below 18 kara' have been tarnished in a few days, merely from the above-named cause. True, these in- stances are not very frequent; nevertheless it is as well to know them, and they are sufti- cient to prove that itis not in every case the fault of the goods not wearing well—as it is zenerally called—but the result ef the particu- lar constitution by which they are worn.— [Jeweler.

THE TWO HEADED EsGLE.—The origin of the device of the eagle on national and royal banners may be traced to very early times. It Was the esign of the aycient kings of Per- sia and Babylon. The Romans adopied many other figures on their camp standards; but Marius (B.C. 102) made the eagle alone the and confined the other figures to the cohorts. From the Romans the French, under the empire, adopted the eagle. The emperors of the western Roman empire used a black eagle :\hose of the east a golden one. The sign of the golden eagle met with in taverns ig in allusion to the emperors of the east. Since the time of the Romans almost every state that has assumed the designation of an empire has taken the eagle for its ensiga— Austria, Prussia, Russia. Poland, and France alltook the eagle. “The two-headed eagle six nifies a double empire. The emperors of Aus- tria, who claim to be considered the succes sors of the Cvesars of Rome, use the double headed eagle, which is the eagle of the e: emperors with that of the western tvpitying the “Holy Holy Roman Empire,” of whieh the emperors of the Germany (now merged in the house of Austria) considered themselves as the representatives. Charlemagne was 4 first to use it, for when he became master of the whole of the German empire he added the second head to the eagle, A. D. 8!2, to denote that theemperors of Kome and Germany were united in him. As it is among birds the king, and being the emblem of a noble nature from its strength of wing, and eye, and courage, and aiso of conscious strength and ia: ower, the eagle has been universally pre- ferred as the continental emblem of ‘sover- eignly. Ofthe different eagles of heraldry the black eagle is considered the most noble, especially when blazoned on a golden shieid. CURIOSITIES OF A NeGRro REVIVAL.—A re- markabie revival has been in progress in one of our colored churches for several days, and we should add, nights.
