SENATE.—Mr. Waliace introduced a joint resolution providing for the publication and distribution of a supplement to the Revised Statutes, Mr. Beck introduced A bill to regulate the holding of the circuit and district courts of the United States in Kentucky. These, together with bills of a private char- acter, were referred. ‘The Senate resumed the consideration of the New Hampshire Senatorial case—the pendins question being on the amendment of Mr. Hoar to the resolution of the majority of the commit- tee on privileges and elections, declaring that Hon Charles H. Bell is entitled to a seat, under the appointment of the governor. Mr. Saulsbury, whe made the report from that committee against the admission of Mr Bell, addressed the Senate in supportof ts corclusions. Personally, he would be gladt» admit the gentleman, but the constitution gave the governor no authority toappolnt a Senato to fill a vacancy occasioned by the expiration o & term Of service; the power of choosing Seua tors being lodged in the respective legislature of the states. HOUSE.—Mr. Mills (Tex,) asked leave to offer a resolution amending the rulesso as to make it in order every morning immediately after the reading of the journal, for members to offer resolutions of inquiry. Mr. Conger objected. ‘The House then at 12:20 went into committee of whole, (Mr. Blackburn fa the chair,) on the legislative appropriation bill. Ou motion of Mr. Dunnell an amendment was adopied making immediately available $25 000 of the appropriation for the general land oifice. Mr. Atkins offered an amendment, which was adopted, for the appointzent of a deputy com- missioner of pensions, at a salary of $2,400. Mr. McMahon offered an amendment, repeal- ing the sections of the statutes providing for the biennial examination of pensioners, but leaving with the commissioner the power to order Special examinations when necessary, and to tpcrease or reduce pensions in accord- ance with right and justice; but no pension Shall te reduced without notice to the pen- sioner. The amendment concludes as folio’ “In order to provide forthe payment of ar- Tears of pensions, the Secretary of the Treasury is directed to issue immediately, in payment thereof, as they may be adjusted, the $10,000,000 in legal tender money now in the Treasury, kept as a special fund for the redemption of fractlonal currency.” Mr. Garfield raised the point of order that the amendment was not germane to the Dill, changed existing law, and did not _retrench expenditures. If the amendment could be ruled in order. a proposition to break wholly through the whole resumption business could be also Tuled in orde The Facts About Arizona, Editor Star:—Having read several notices which have appeared ina morning paper lately, concerning the immigration of a number of our citizens to Tucson, Arizona, @ little knowledge, in the shape of a few facts, which the writer has of that part of the country may not be uninteresting to those who contemplate makin; that place thelr future home. ‘Tucson issituated in’ the ces ter of a large desert or brush plain, a small creek flows through the town, funishing just water enough for the inhabl- tarts of the place, and to irrigate about two bi ndred acres of land. As there is no timber on the plains and the nearest mountain ridges are barren, all firewood has to be brought from & gieat distance, and 1s very expensive. The .rger part of the population of the town are Mexicans, who work for from fifty to seventy- live cents per day, and whose style of livingis more filthy, if anything, than that of the Chi- nee. More miiersare out of work and pros- P cting around the count are actually «mployed in the mines, and these are working for such a sma}l amount that, considering the very extravagant prices of all commodities, they barely obtain a very poor living. In cer. tain parts of Arizona there may be found some Very fine stock ranges and agricultural lands; but not within one hundred miles of Tucson: The writer would advise those who intend going to this part of the country to lookout for some more reliable information than they may obtain from Arizona delegates or stage line Pecneetons whose interests to draw people re are only too Cel else they may find themcelves led to a life of great distress an piivation.

The meeting was to take some action as to this Somes and also to make our local mil- itary organization carry the flag. E.C. Ford was in favor of eee 2 in the strong- est terms possible such an exhibition as had been seen On the streets yesterday. a commit- tee should be appointed to waiton Company A ard request them to carry the flag to-day. W. B. Gonsalvez moved that a committee of five be appointed to draft resolutions eae ube sentiments of the meeting. S. E. Thomason sald the parade of rebel soldiers through our streets without the union fag should not go unnoticed. He DID NOT SAY VISITING MILITARY, BUT REBELS fcr such they wel {Cheers.} The Chair.—“ 1 amend my opening remarks by the substitution of ‘rebels’ for visiting companies. wherever the latter occurs.” (Applause.}) Mr. Thomason centinued that he was not muck of a talker, but whenever it came to the stars and strij was there. Last year no less than four coipa- nies from Virginia visited Washington, aad none of them carried the union flag. ‘Taey walked under the blue flag of the state. He had written several articles on this subject to the Republican, but none of them wereever pub- shed. The time had now come to show these rc bel dogs, he couid not call them anything else, that they could net studiously insult tae nation without rebuke. They have neither hearts nor souls. When they left Apomattox they sneaked away like curs. The men who fought for theuaton liad been only too glad to remove their political Oteabilities, instead of forever disfranchtsinz tLem. ‘The result ts that they now contro! the Senate and Houses E. C. Ford.—“It should always be the duty of the stalwarts to have nothing to do with nary aman who goes back on the flag.” J. B. Dunning said the only flag he saw in the parade of the Virgiaia and Wash- ington companies was the blue flag of the state of Virginia, borie by the former. Upon it was the motto, “+ Sic Semper Tyrannis.” t Motto had ever been dear to the southern heart since Booth jumped on the stage of 10th-street thea- ter after assassinating Lincoln. He first thought {tstrange that the Virginia company did not. carry the flag of the Union, but more strange that company A had not thrown that emblem to the breeze. He had come to the conclusion, however, that the insult was well-timed. Buta few days ago THAT NATIONAL “WIPER-OUT” (BLACKBURN) bad declared, on the floor of the House, that his party would never stop until every vestige of war legislation w: ‘iped from the scavute books. (Cries of Never! Never!] When this Virginia company arrived it was met by this “wiper-out.” ‘Phe flag they should have landed with would Sppropriately have been a pair of old pants labelled “small-pox.” It is time to cry halt. The stars and bars aie in the hearts of every one of them. Congress is confeie ate. It 1s time to look the subject squarely ta the face. The pecpe of Washi yb, and through them tue whole country, had been four times insulted, as they were yesterday. G. P. Stiles sald the meeting was not bora In frenzy and excitement. It was called calmly but emphatically rebuke the insult that had been offered the country, es; ‘the soldier ele- ment thereof. It, was a democratic insult. They have captured the capital, but the government would never be delivered over to them. The brave and intrepid of all that fs left of the army and navy will again put down treason. A SILENT MAN ON HORSEBACK WAS COMING te head them. The very bones of fallen Union turned with the Union flag ana spread it over a table in the center of the room. The cheers and applause were hon Ti the appointment of a committee of five to arait Tesolutions was called and ado; ly. The chair designated Me Heron, Hawkes, Joyce and mittee. th was continued. Mr. 8. Weaver said that the visiting company were mere boys. They ought to be at home on thelr sand hilis. They were all born since the War. What else could be expected of them. They were TAUGHT FROM THEIR CRADLES TO HATE THE UNION. Mr. Saville said that pgs a8 A could not be compelled to carry a Nag. The law only directs that regiments or battalions should carry fags. Mr. Weaver sald that when Company A went to Boston they carried a flag. A volce.—‘‘And you bet they'll carry one every time they go there.” Mr. Weaver continued that whenever a south- ern company visited. Company A it always kept its flag out of sight, even in the armory. These companies have gone back and openly boasted that while here tuey never once saw a U.S. flag. Mr, Bunnell advanced the idea that if Company A should have carried a tlag yesterday a holy howl would have gone up fiom Congrsss that the southern company was being intimidated. Mr. Scott said the meeting did not want to get its back =p and aunibilate company A, which carries when it tee north, but aban- dons it on all occasions like those of yesterday in order not to Wound the tender feelings of tte graybacks. He further satd that some answer Should be made to the editorial in last even- ibg’s Stak. He read the editorial which had reference to politiclans taking a lesson from cordial fraternization among the men who fought on both sides, as shown in the reception given the Norfolk company by Company A. He said it should be answered by saying that the southern men were very wiliing to forget all about the war that was obnoxious to them, including the old flag. THIN SKINNED ROOSTERS. Mr. Lincoln announced that he would be d—d if he was one who would allow Co. A to flaunt in his face. The whole shaft should be levelled at the local company—those thin skiuned roosters who have such consideration for the feel of rebel whelps. After some song-singing—including “Rally Round the Flag” and “My Mary Ann”—the committee on resolutions returned and re ‘ons were adopted by a risi of them directed to be sent_to the Sec: War. The meeting then adjourned. THE RESOLUTIONS are: “That we, honorably discharged Union sold/ers and satlors, who served during the late rebeliicn, desire and deem it eminently proper to exp) ess our utter contempt of any 0: a tion of men, callin; ves 80) are furnished arms by the National govern- Ment, who, under any circumstances or pre- toaprear upon the publlc streets atrens: ate appear upon mul any city in ti is union without the Stars and Srika.—The British boat turned to Victoria a8 nt policy fears are e tervained of € presel ni Pees outbreak of several tribes, including = Chiet’s 179 Cheyenne warriors in Indian Terri- tory, the Shoshones, Rannocks, Tendoy’s mixea body and Moses’ 1.600 armed warriors, with other Oregon and Washington Indians.
