THE U.S. SHIP CONSTELLATION was put in commission at the New York navy yard yester- day. She will leave for Ireland as soon as he cargo is complete. AMERICAN CATTLE TO FRANCE.—Mr. Rhodes, commercial agent at RouengFrance, tn his dis- patch to the Department of State, dated Feb- Tuary 21, 1890, reports that he has good author- ity for believing that the French government ‘will not impose a duty on foreign wheat nor in- crease the duty on horned cattle. These results have been arrived at after considerable discus- Sion in the house of deputies and among the people. Cattie may be exported to some parts of France from America with profit. INVIOLABILITY OF TELEGRAMS.—The House committee on revision of the laws at their meet- ing yesterday instructed Representative Town- shend, of Jliinois, to report to the House Repre- | Sentative Singleton’s bill relative to telegraphic communications, and ask for a suspension of the rules to put the bill upon its tmmediate passage. The bill declares telegraph messages private papers of the senders and receivers, and provides for their protection from unreasonable search and seizure and from production as evi- dence in judicial and legislative proceedings to the same extent as communications sent by the United States ma: AnMy OnbERS.—The following changes in the fons of officers of the pay department are made: Major Wm. Smith will report for duty to the paymaster general in this city, relieving Major C. J. Sprague, who will report for duty to the general commanding the division of the Atlantic. The court martial appointed to meet Cota Island, New York harbor, ts dis- solved. THE SENATE IN EXECUTIVE SESSION this after- noon coufirmed the nomination of Wm. H. Daniels as collector of customs for the district of Oswegatehie, N. Y., and then resumed con- sideration of the Simmons’ (Ga). isthe unfinished business at erday. SENATOR BLAINE ‘ived a telegram last | night from Rhode Island stating that the dele- gates at large to Chicago, chosen yesterday by the Rhode Island republican convention, are | all avowedly his friends and will vote for his | nomination. ‘The Senator is _ particularly | blessed over the result, because of the allega- tion which had been made, that the Senator would not be supported by f cept by the Maine delegation. | Exnrerrions.—The U. S. consal at Buenos Ayres in his dispateh to the Department of journment, State, dated Feb. 6, 1880, announces tnat the commissioners of the centinary exposition to be opened in that city next September, have decided to admit free of duty all statuary, paint- ings, bronzes, and other objects of art or vertu from the United States, not for competition, but simply for exhibition. The chargé at Brussels also informs the department that the council have decided to admit to the exhibition of arts, science and industry in that city, all samplss of whatever character free of duty. The exhibi- Uon at Brussels is to be permanent, and for the sores as well as exhibition, of all variety of ob- jects. A Corp WINTER IN AUSTRIA.—Mr. Weaver, consul general at Vienna, in his dispatch to the Department of State, of Feb. 18, 130, reports a remarkably cold winter in Austria, the coldest for the last 50 years. The average temperature Was 23 degrees Fayrenheit—the lowest 4 degrees below zero. The Consequence was the freezing of lakes never known to be closed before. Car- nivals of skaters were among the Incidents Some of them were ona grand seaie, partict pera in by thousands of people. The public ealth has been good. ‘THE DONNELLY-WASHBURN CASE.—The House committee on elections has postponed a formal vote in the Donnelly-Washburn case until the minority report has been printed. Provision was yesterday made by order of the House to have the Saris es and paid for out of the contingent fund of the House. The majority report of the sut-committee has been printed, and placed in the hands of the committee. It finds in favor of unseating Washburn and seat- ing Donnelly; it cites 291 cases of alleged bribery on the part of Washburn where the money was | paia by Washburn’s clerks, his business mana- | fer, the secretary of his political committee, or is political agents. Over 100 cases, it is sald, are uraced directly to Washburn’s office, the money in some cases rene paid in his presence or in the presence of his brother, Gov. C. Weshburn, of Wisconsin. The report specities a number of cases of bribery, giving the sums paid, and further charges the intimidation of thousands of workingmmen. The sub-commiitee find that Donnelly actually had a majority of 2u0 votes. AMERICAN COTTON IN ARABIA AND PERSTA.— The Navy department is preparing lists of the ; cotton goods tn use in Persia and Arabia, sam- ples of which have been sent by Commodore Shufeldt of the Ticonderoga. The prices will also be on the list, and when printed they will be sent with samples to such American manu- facturers as desire them. The g in use in Persia are of English manufacture, while those in Arabia are made by the natives. In the re- port on the Arablan goods is the following aragrapl: “These goods are made upon stnail and looms in the vicinity of Muskat, and are most esteemed and worn all over Arabia both by the dwellers upon the coast and the Bedouins of the interior. These fabrics are also exported for the use of the Arabs living in Zan- zibar and on the east coast of Africa. If the manufacturers in the United States can imitate these goods exactly, a large and very profitable trade could be easily established.” Minister Bry have been received from Minister Bingbam at Japan that he desires to return from that post, in order to again enter into politics. ‘The Depart- ment of State, however, has no information on this subject. The career of Minister Bingham atthe Japanese court has not only been emi- nently satisfactory, but ts regarded as the most brilliant and enduring in its results of that of any U.S. minister at Japan since the negotia- Uon of the Perry treaty. He has succeeded in breaking up the old custom of foreign govern- ment’s treating Japan as a quasi-dependant government, and bas brought about an equality for that country in diplomatic negotiations with other nations. On account of his services at Japansshere has been a disposition in the Department of State to transfer him to Pekin to succeed Minister Seward, where the difficul- Ues of diplomacy are much greater, and where his abilities might be of advantage to the United States. There is no doubt that the lack of contidence in Mr. Seward wing out of his relations with the Chinese officials at Shanghai and the repeated complaints of the municipal Oflicers of that city to the authorities at Pekin, has'rendered his presence at the Chinese court of very little Service to the United States. PERSONAL.—Mr. Z. Robbins has returned to Washington, and has re-established his home at $23 Vermont avenue. After his extended course of foreign travel he pronounces W; ton to be the handsomest and cleanest capital in the world.——Edwin Booth, since his bankru} icy in 1576, has made some $360,000. Wi P.

A POLITICAL STRUGGLE AND PROBABLE DEAD- The debate on the immediate deficiency ap- propriation bill having taken a political turn on | the paragraph providing for the pay of general | deputy marshals and their special deputies, it is now probable that the bill will not be disposed of and be a law fora fortright. The democrats | seek to Incorporate an amendment offered by Mr. Springer, providing that special deputy marshals shall be appointed by the United States circuit judges from the different political parties, not exceeding three in each election precinct, and to press the qualifications of being able to read and write the English language. ‘The republicans oppose the amendment because it is a political rider, and recognizes in the ju- dicial system politics, inasmuch as it directs judges to make a discrimination between the arties. Mr. Reed, of Maine, it is thought, eralded the fight, which will be made in the Senate, led by Mr. Blaine by announcing the foregoing view in a speech made this morning. The misfortune of the matter ts that all the other items of the deficiency bill are absolutely items of charity and should be p: n- cluded in it js the appropriation for the public inter. P It is now thought that if the democrats insist upon the amendment, that the republicans will make it the subject of an extended political de- bate, ana that if it goes to the President that he will veto it. This will either compel the demc- crats to back down or bring on another dead- lock between the President and Congress. A New Treaty Negotiated with inae ABUSES RECTIFIED AND CHINESE IMMIGRATION PROPERLY REGULATED. ‘When Minister Seward left this country to re- turn to bis post in China, after the investiga- tion of his affairs by the Forty-Fifth Congress, he placed his resignation inthe hands of the President. The understanding with him was that as soon as he completed the negotiation of a new treaty with China he would formally ten- er his resignation and relieve the administra- tion from any further embarrassment, growing out of his alleged irregularities. Congress took no further action in the matter, and the treaty has been concluded. Mr. Seward has, however, said nothing more on the subject of his resigna~ tion. He seemed to have forgotten all about It. In order, however, to carry out the understand- ing between Mr. Seward and the administration he has peen formally notified that his resigna- tion will be accepted. The new treaty with China, which, it was desirous that Mr. Seward should compfete, modifies in many respects the existing treaty, especially with reference to Chinese emigration to this country. ‘This sub. feet has been adjusted to the satisfaction of oth the United States and Chinese govern- ments. Very practical restrictions are ‘placed on Chinese emigration to this country, and un- der them the abuses which have caused so much trouble on the Pacific coast will be pre- vented, Soctety Notes. Advantage was taken of the fine weather ot yesterday to resume the visiting the protracted gloomy spell Interrupted, and many of the Sen- atorial families, including Mrs. Blaine and Miss Dodge, Mrs. Hamlin and Mrs. Kellogg, received numerous calls. Senator Wallace, who went to attend the democratic convention in Pennsylvania, accompanied by his wife, i Mr. Allan McLane, who with his daughter has been passing the winter at Wormley’s, exp”: to move into the residence he has built on fowa Circle, opposite that of Mr. Phelps, in about a foiinight. Every year adds to the number of agreeable families from other ities who, being at liberty to choose a place of residence, seiect Washington as offering more advantages, in climate as well as society, tan any other city. ‘pn the lot adjoining Mr- McLane’ house Mr. Phelps intends building a home for his daughter, who was married to Mr. Sevellon Brown in Feb- ruaiy. Jt will probably be completed in less than a year. ‘Mrs. John Jay Knox gave one of her delight ful wusicales last evening, of which both th musical and social features were greatly joyed by a large number of guests. The atten- dance inc'uded not only a fair share of the mus- ical talent of the city, but also many persons of note in public and private life. It has lately been chronicled of one of the London beauties that she is so fastidious in regard to the Cleanliness of any: hing she must, touch, that she has gold or silver coin scoured before putting it into her purse. The late Mrs. Gales, of this city, was similarly eccentric. Her old friends say that if she dropped her handker- chief on the floor, she would not use it again until it had been washed. Immediately on returning home after a walk or drive, she would change every article of her clothing for fresh garments. An Admiral now living here recently related that when a young lieutenant he once offended her by riding on horseback to Ecking- ton (her country seat) to attend a dinner party to which she had invited him. In the rebuke which she administered to him she implied that he brought the odor of the horse in his clothes to her table, which was of course a greatly exaggerated view of the case. ‘THE APPROPRIATIONS COMMITTEE Of the House met to-day, and the star route bill, which re- cently passed the Senate, was referred to a sub- committee, with instructions to report to the full committee as soon as practicable. The for- lfications bill, as amended and passed by the Senate, was also referred to a sub-committee for consideration. : THE ACKLEN Casz.—The House committee on the judiciary were in session yesterday, and summoned Representative Acklen before them, with a view to gaining some further light upon the case now under investigation by the com- mittee. Mr. Acklen claimed that he had not been permitted by the committee on foreign 2 fairs to offer any evidence for the purpose of e: plaining his motives, and the judictary commit tee accorded him the opportunity. ‘The com- mittee meet again to-day. ‘THE INTEREST ON THE REGISTERED FouR Per CENTS.—The U. S. Treasurer is at work prepar- ing the checks for interest on the registered 4 per cents. The interest on those bonds, which will be ‘anticipated. will be paid on Monday next. Thenumb er of registered checks ts about 60,000. About 30,000 will be ready to-night and will be matied to-morrow morning: The bal- ance will be mailed as soon as they are pre- pared. THE FRIENDS of ex-Senator Cnristiancy de- | precate any newspaper discussion of the facts in connection with the unfortunate scandal made public in the matter of Mrs. Christlancy, and assure us emphatically that the ex-Senator will be fully vindicated in the matter at the proper time. How Ir 1s LookED Uron HERE.—The action of the democratic committee of Pennsylvania yesterday is regarded as an overwhelming de- feat of Tilden by the opponents of the latter; but Tilden’s friends claim that It will not mate- Tially Iniluence the coming state convention. A Star reporter to-day talked with gentlemen who attended the meeting of the committee ia Pittsburg yesterday, and there is no Cees the fact that the ‘Tilden men were badly de- feated. The anti-Tilden men of the committee held a caucus, and determined upon three points they would urge. First, to insist upon Harris- burg as the place for holding the state conven- tion; second, to fix the date not later than some time in April, and third to direct the chairman toenter upon the listof the convention the anti-Tilden delegation from Philadelphia, The first motlon—to select _Harrisburg—was carrlea by a vote of 30 to 20; the second—to fix April 25th as the date for the convention—was carried by 28 votes for that date to 22 for several other dates. The kard fight was over the resolution instructing the enrollment of the regular dele- gation from Philadelphia, which is almost solid mn. The Tilden men fought this ras ay Tilde! biteriy for three hours and a halt, by fillibust- it was finally and every other means. I with six it ween factions, and the o] ponents of Tilden among democratic Cor ree: men are jubilant at the result, believing it will force him off the track. The T! men wanted the convention held late in say or early in June. Representative Clymer said to-day that the ac- ‘Uon of the state committee was a death-blow to ‘Tilden’s chances in Pennsylvania, WELLS, Farco & Co.’s P. O. D.—The Post- master General to-day received a protest from the Pacific coast members of C: against tee with Wella, Fargo 4 Co.'s Ing dat they be given, anti Maga Baxt tp ba through counsel and wa tatives. and will take no action that date The District Investigatuone TESTIMONY TO-DAY. ‘The House committee on the District of Co- lumbia to-day resumed the investigation of the charges made against the District Commission- ers by Treasurer Gilfillan. Joseph C. Rock testified that he is a clerk in | the engineer's office of the District; the number of complaints filed, as shown in a report made in November, 1878, alleging excessive assessments, was about 30,000; these complaints were filed when Mr. Roome was in the engineer's offi about 25,000 complaints were filed by Mr. Dic! son, a broker, and about 5,000 by property-hold- ers. Lewis J. Davis testified that the banking firm oi Lewis Johnson & Co, bought in some prop= erty at a tax sale, on which they owned the tax lein certificates; the firm never made any com- plaint touching the assessment, but a drawback cert'ficate was issued for erroneous assessments, John A. Hurley testified that he was a clerk for Wm. Dickson; was employed in such ca- pacity in 1878; witness recognized a number of complaints, alleging erroneous assessments, which be made, and signed the names of the owners of the property: to the complaints by order of Wfiliam Dickson; he had witnessed a power of attorney Chee by Mrs. Catherine Wall, as executrix of Thomas Wall, and she signed the paper in his, witness’ presence. Mrs. Catherine Wall, widow of Thomas Wall, testiflea that her husband died 18 years ago, leaving property in the District, ana made a will, in which he named his widow (the wit- ness) and two others as his executors; only wit- ness qualitied as execu‘or under the will; wit- ness gave Mr. Wm. Dickson a power of attorney to collect any drawbacks which might be due on her ‘property: when the drawback was ready witness wrote her husband’s name on the drawback, and the signature was attested by two of Mr. Dickson’s clerks as witnesses. Lieut. Hoxie testified that from !sv4 until Major Twining took his place as engineer officer he had charge of the revision of special assess- ments; witness made a report in 1S74 calculating the special assessments aggregate about a mil- Mon and a half dollars, and that there would be a reduction by revision of about 5 per cent.; the revision of assessments began practically in 1875, because at that time complaints of erro neous assessments began to come in from prop: erty-holders, Witni explained at length the mode in which special assessments were origin- ally made and the modifications made by the present Commissioners; the gross amount of all special assessments, made by the board of pub- ic works, on property-holders was $4,595, Witness said that the assessments made by e board of public works were not. grossly erro neous, but in many cases they were ex, sive; the fault, was with legislation not belng enough; when the board of public needed money it took all it could get un- der the law, trom the property-holders; the law allowed the board of public works to assess a ohable proportion upon property-holders special improvements not exceeding one- third of such cost, the board of public works charged to the property-holders on the square the amount of improvements in front of ex- empted property, such as churches and school- houses. ‘At 12:20 o'clock the investigation adjourned until Tuesday next. CONFIRMED.—The Senate, in executive ses- sion, yesterday confirmed the nomination of Jacob Hendrick Upton to be Assistant Secretary of the Treasury. THE CABINET MERTING this afternoon was very short, and devoted to routine business. ANOTHER PLANET.—The Smithsonian Institu- tion has received from Professor Peters, of Clin- ton, the announcement of the discovery by him- self on the 18th of March, 1859, of a planet of the eleventh magnitude, in eleven hours, twen- ty-six minutes, twenty Seconds right ascension, one degree, two minutes south declination, with a daily motion of seven minutes north. Hon. Joun B. HawLey, Assistant Secretary of the Treasury, will leave to-night for Illinois to enter actively into the gubernatorial campaign. He took his leave of the department to-day and straigntened up ail his offictal business. He was Called upon during the day by a large num- ber of people to bid him good-bye. Mr. Hawley has been a most courteous and affable official. His departure is universally regretied. ‘THE PRESS AND THE Lonsy.—The House com- mittee on rules has reported to the Iouse an amendment to the rules providing for the ad- mission of representatives of the press to the lobby In the rear of the Speaker's stand. A Sprrirep DERATE sprang up in the House this afternoon In regard to the election laws. Mr. Ewing, of Ohio, appealed to his democratic friends to accept the compromise tendered them by the gentleman from Ohio (Mr Garfleld), and to modify those bad laws so asto make them non-partisan in character. If it were not ac- cepted, theccry of “nullification” would go up in all the northern states, from every hill-top and valley. Mr. Hawley, of Conn., rose and declared in an excited manner that the republican party tendered no compromise. It repudiated and execrated the word “compromise.” Mr. Spring- er’s amendment to Mr. Garfield’s substitute, providing the general deputy marshals who perform duties in regard to elections shall be appointed by judges of the circuit courts, was soopted as was also an amendment providing that deputy marshals shall not receive pay for a longer period than ‘three duys during any election. Mr. Frye, of Maine, in the absence of Mr. Garfield, emphatically dented that that gen- tleman had tendered any compromise.

THE JUDGE PEARRE INVESTIGATION. — The Pearre jnvestigation, at Annapolis, Md., was resummed last evening with closed doors. The same charge of immorality was under con- Sideration. All the witnesses examined were for the defense. It is understood that there will be very few witnesses in rebuttal. Judge Pearre was placed on the stand last night. TILDEN’S PosiTi0N.—The Cincinnatl Enquirer ublishes a special from New York, stating that. ‘ilden has positively resolved not to be a candi- date for the presidential nomination at Cincin- nati. “He will, however, be there in force to see that John Kelly’s man is not chosen, as he feels this to be a duty which he owes to his iriends in this and other states.” THE New Hampsaire Democratic CONVEN- TION.—The New Hampshire democratic state committee yesterday decided upon May 5th for holding a state convertion to elect delegates to the national convention at Cincinnati.

This, if adopted, will leave the substitute in the exact form of Mr Springer’s original amendment with the addition of the amendment offered by Mr. Weaver, peta that when there are more than two politteai parties in the fleld at any election, three deputy} marshals shall be ap- pointed, no two of whom shall belong to the same political party. Mr. Simonton supported the amendment. These election laws were a dangerous innova- Uon on the system of laws which the fathers of the republic had given, and though they had been declared constitutional, it did not follow that constitutional laws were good laws.

Loxpox, March 19.—The betting on_ the university boat race, which will come off tc- morrow morning, is ‘now 4 to1on the Oxford crew. The Tunis this morning, criticising Thursday's practice of the crews on the Thames, says: Comparing the time made by the crews, there can be no doubt that there ‘s considerable margin tn favor of Oxford, and the opinion of those best qualified to judge is strongly in their favor. They row in good time and commence and finish the stroke together. They slide and swing well, and though their rowing appears to be short, the oats are really longer in the water than they seem to be. They keep well together throughout their long rows, although they oc- casionally fell to pieces a week ago, and as they can go fast from the start to the finish, they may never be headed. The Cambridge crew, though they were improving duing the latter part of last week, have been standing still for Several days, even if they have notactually been deteriorating, and have not fulfilled the prom- ise of their early practice on the Putney wat ‘The weights of the Oxford crew aggregate 1, ounds, and of the Cambridge crew 1,293 pounds. ‘he race will be rowed at about 7:30 a.m. N TRADE A ks Interested.

The story of domestic unhappiness related Db Mrs. Christiancy is exceptional in some particu- lars. One could hardly {magine an ex-Supreme Court J nage, an ex-Senator of the United States, and at present a member of the American atplo- matic corps, in the role of a wife-beater, yet Mis. Christlancy avers that he has, upon seve- ral occasions, actually knocked her down, and that upon other interesting occasions Mr. Chris- {ancy varied the programme by choking, pineh- ing and slapping her. ‘This difficulty between man and wife grew, after the knowledge upon the part of the latter of the intrigue by which Mr. Christiancy resigned his seat in the Senate to make way for the late Zachariah Chandler. The particulars, as related by Mrs, Chris- tiancy, are substantially as follows: It was jn the fall of 1878 that Zachariah Chandier went to Mr. Christiancy’s house in Lansing, and there made the arrangement for the latter's withdrawal from the Senate. Mrs. Christiancy says that this Interview occured in the month of October. She was not’present at the interview, but Dr. Victor Christiancy, a son of the Senator, now residing in Leavenworth, Kan., was in the next room and heard the greater part of the conversation. Victor re- ed the conversation to her. ‘On the same lay, he gave her a graphic description of Messrs. Chandler and Christancy walking up and down, haggling over the term. Mr. Chan ler began the conversation by saying that he had been to Washington and had seen President Hayes, and that the matter pending between them was all right. ‘This remarl showed that there had been other conversations between them upon the same subject. Mr. Chandler then went on to say that Mr. Chrls- tancy could have either the mission to Peru or Central America. The administration had placed these two places at his (Mr. Chandler disposal. Mr. Chandler also thought that t Sapanese mission might be had, as Minister Bingham was talking of coming home, but the Peruvian and Central American missions were absolutely at his disposal. Mr. Chandler ad- vised the acceptance of the Central American mission; there Mr. Christiancy would find life so quiet that he could save oe of his sal- ary. Then followed a loi bees about routes, the mode of travel, &c., en the conversation. finally closed with a talk about asum of money that Was to be pald Mr. Christlancy by Mr. Chandler as a bonus for his refirement. The exact amount of this sum was not mentioned, because from the conversation that followed it was piainly shown that it had been jously arranged. Finally, Mr. Chand- le “Who shall I give the money to?” Mr. Christiancy answered: *‘Henry—send it to him.” Henry is Mr. Christiancy’s favorite son, who re- sides in Detroit. It is said that Mr. Christiancy will in his favor. After this Mr. “Then we will call this a set~ tlement.” Mr. Chandler laughed as he said with: the satirical air of a man in good spirits over a bi in to his Sen “Yes, we will call “Then,” said Mr. Chris- this a settlement.” tlancy, “pledge me 0 other human soul shall know of this.” “No,” replied Mr. Chand- | ler, “how can they?” This ended the conversa- on. It was that same day that Dr. Victor ac- quainted his step-mother with the particulars of what he called his father’s degradation. It was net until they arrived in Peru that Mr. Christiancy learned of his wife’s knowledge of this affair. He found an allusion to it in a letter to Mrs. Christiancy from Dr. Victor. His rage at this was extreme. He threatened her, and even went so far as to strike her. After he knew of her share in this secret there was never any peace between them. Mr. Christiancy watched her constantly, and never missed an opponents to show his displeasure. Mrs. Christiancy says that he ts a confirmed opium. eater, and that in addition to this he uses quid stimulants to such a degree as to be m a con- linual state of morbid irritation, Finally, the quarrel in Peru culmineteq by the mii ‘ Knocking bis wife down in the parlors of the legation, in the presence of Mr. George E. eee an American resident in Peru. | Mr. Cbristiancy objected to Mr. Haights's pres- ence in the legation, as he had aceused him of meddling in some of his affairs and ‘ing too much attention to his wife. After thisscandal- ous scene Mrs. Christlancy left her husband. He threatened her with ruin if she should leave him. He said he had money and position, aad could ruin her character, while she could not hurt bim. She asked for money to return home; it was refused. She then told her story to some of her American friends in Lima, and they lent her money to pay her passage home. The money has since been repaid out of her earnings here, as she has not received any sup- ort from Mr. Christiancy since that day. She is now living with her mother, Mrs. Lugenbeel, sister of Col. Lugenbeel, of the Her mother keeps a small boarding-hause, Sue 8a Moderate income by coloring photograp! Mr. Christiancy’s alleged ill-treatment dates back pretty early in their married life.

Mrs. Christlancy’s mother then lived across the ‘street irom the residence of herdaughter. Mrs. Christiancy became angry, and s said that she would go over and spend the night with her mother. The Senator then, as the ed took her by the throat, choked her a little, anc then locked her in the bedroom. The next time he laid violent hands upon her was when her mother was visiting Mrs. Christiancy in Lan- sing. This was in a quarrel about a woman whom Senator Chi cy kept as housekeeper. Another witness ‘another knocking down is Miss Meloy, daughter of William A. Meloy, a lawyer in city. She bore her troubles, even when of this violent character, because Mr. Christiancy would afterward protest so separation became inevitable.
