Mr. Close is aclam digger. He is a man of humble circumstances. He lives at Stanwich, Conn., convenient to his clam beds. At 2 o'clock this morning there was x loud knocking athis front door. The knocking continued, and finally aroused him. He opened the door and saw a little boy standing outside, ‘Who are you?” he ask “Lam Ward Waterbur, “and I want to go home. Mr. Close asked Ward to come in and he did 0. He then told Mr. Close his story. He said man bad brought him up to tho house on his back and had toid him to go and knock on Mr. Close’s door. ‘Then the man ran away.

WARD'S STORY. The boy then told how he had been ap- proached by two tall, plainly dressed men about 5 o'clock Monday afternoon as he was playing near the school house. ‘They asked him to show them the way to a near place and he consented. After he had gone a short distance and as soon as they were out of sight of the school house the men told him rouglily he must go with them and picked him up and started into the woods. He did not know where or how far he went, but only that long after dark that night he was taken to a small bouse, where he was kept until last night, when he was taken to the gate of Mr. Close’s place and lett as already described. ‘The police are Lard at work on the case, but as yet no clue has been obtained.

It was reported that there are 400 sacks of mail matter still on the steamer. At2 o'clock this morning the North German Lloyd steamer Hayel, from New York January 26, arrived at Southampton. The agents at Southampton of the North German Lloyd Company had arranged for all the passengers by the ill-fated Eider who desired to proceed to Bremen to travel from Southampton by the Havel. They boarded that steamer and shortly after 2 o'clock they proceeded for Bremen. ‘THE WEATHER MODERATING. Addispatch from Atherficld says that the weather has beconte finer. Capt. Heinrike and a majority of the Eider's officers have returned to the steamer, where they are engaged in di- the work of discharging the cargo into the lighters. This work was commenced to- day as soon as the circumstances allowed and is progressing quite satisfactorily. —_ TO SUPPRESS JACKSON CITY.

Quite a Lively Debate in the House on the Subject. WHAT THE WEST WANTS. Not Reform, but Appropriations According to Mr. Bowers, SENATE. The usual batch of petitions was presented and referred, among them a rather belated one from the Robert T. Lincoln Club of Brooklyn, N.¥., asking Congress to uphold the Presi- dent's hand in the Chilean controversy. Mr. Sherman presented a communication from the State Department recommending an appropriation of $5,000 for a commission to se- cure a creditable representation of American art at the international art exposition at Mu- nich, Bavaria, from June to October, 1802 Referred to the committeo on appropriatfons, _ MM, DOLPH'S ANTI-CHINESE BULLe Mr. Dolph, from the committee on foreign | relations, reported back adversely various anti- | Chinese bills introduced and referred ut th present session, and reported in liou of them a | bill continuing ’in force for ten years all la | Row in force prohibiting and regulating the | coming into this country of Chinese persons and persons of Chinese descent. Calendar. MARRIAGE AND DIVORCE. The joint resolution proposing an amendment to the Constitution of the United States relating ; to marriage and divorce heretofore introduced by Mr. Kyle was taken up and Mr. Kyle ad- dressed the Senate in support of it. The amendment proposes that Congress shall ha exclusive power to regulate marriage and di- Yorce in the several states and territories and the District of Columbia. Mr. Kyle described ut some length the anoma- lous and contradictory statutes and judicial de- cisions in the various states of the Union on the subject of marriage and divoree, and said that the only way to put an end to such a national disgrace was a constijutional amendment and the passage of @ uniform law Congress. At the close of his remarks the t resolution was referred to the judiciary committee. THE CALL-DAVIDSON CAS! The resolution heretofore reported from the committee on privileges and elections in the Florida contested election case, declaring Mr. Call entitled to the seat, was called up by Mr. ic, who asked that the vote be taken on it handler asked that the resolution go over til! tomorrow, as he desired to submit a few suggestions on the case. Mr. Turpie made no objection andthe reso- lution weut over till tomorrow. On motion of Mr. Wilson Senate bill for the creation of a fourth judicial district in the ter- ritory of Utah was passed. At2 o'clock the special. order was taken up, being thebill providing for the public printing and binding and the distribution of public documents. HOUSE. That the members of the House are becom- ing somewhat weary of the long discussion over the rulos was evidenced this morning by the small attendances when the Speaker called the body to order. The House resumed the consideration of the rules. The pending motion was that made by Mr. Boatner of Louisiana striking out the clause rmnitting generel legishition on appropriation ilis, provided that, being germane, it retrench expenditure. In advocating his motion Mr. Boatner argued that the appropriations of previous esses would show that the expenditures could be re- duced constitutionally and reasonably without the House depriving itself of its independence. It had coequal powers with the Senate and it should not surrende: them. THE WEST WANTS APPROPRIATIONS. Mr. Bowers of California said that he did not need any reform so far as he was concerned. He was not here to sound the praises of re- form. The people of the west wanted appro- riations for the improvement of rivei arbors, for public buildings, for th tue unsuryed lands of settlers. He wanted to give the democrats a good straigh: tip on the race for the presidential stakes. ‘They were putting the, race up wrong, snd if they expected to win they woul have to change their horseshoes. If they did not put on good, sound, senssble horseshoes they would not be in it. ‘Changing his simile, Mr. Bowers warned the democrats that they could not win with the hand they held. They would have to draw or they would be beaten. The party which took a S-cent nickel as the measure of the American people would make » mistake. MR. BLAND ADVOCATAS THE RULE AS IT 18, Mr. Bland (Missouri) contended that unless the rule was adopted, in its present form, it would be impossible for theHouse to retrench expenditures and reduce taxation. r. Pendicton (W.Va.) could understand why the republicans of the Fifty-second Congress should be opposed to riders’ on appropriation bili. Riders on appropriation bills had saved the liberties of the people. It was by measures of this character that the liberties of the English peopl» were established. In late years they had becn used to preserve the con- stitutional rights of the people of the south. While he did not think that the policy of riders was asound one the present situation would justify its adoption. MR. BUTLER'S VIEWS. Mr. Butler (Iowa) said that asan original proposition he would feel it his duty to oppose riders; but ke was controlled largely by the thoyght that public interests should al- ways be suggestive of public duty. When Representatives determined for themselves what the peopl sent them here for, then in order to carry out that determination they 13 used. Corcoran, — bid, 79 asked. Golumbla, 165 bid, 18 asked.

It was the bounden duty of the House to adopt such methods as would make economy possible. 176 AMBIGUITY SHOWS Mr. McKenna (Cal.) opposed the provision on account of its ambiguity, for in its am- nite power. enuso it intorted the principles of legislation; it turned a subordinate principle intoa primary one. The object of the govern- ment was saving: it was well being. Economy was not hoarding; it was managing. The clause would be the last straw to break the back of individual power in the House. Mr. Price (La.) opposed the clause. The House had a large democratic mujority.. It could pass any bill it wisped and send it to the Benate. Ifthe Senate ted it it must take the responsibility. Mr. Catchings (Miss.) then demanded the previous question and it was ordered. Mr. Boatner's motion was defeated—59-119. ‘MR. DINGLEY’S AMENDMENT.
