Greatest efforts have been made to save her from imprisonment, especially in view of the fact that she is about to become a mother. In court today her counsel, Sir Charles Russell, made plea onher behalf. Sir Charies trusted that the court in pronouncing sentence would consider the mer's condition and the anguish of mind to which she was subjected. ‘t this point Mrs. Hargraves, who was present and who seemed greatly @ffected, anked the court if sho might speek. The ju plied: “Only upon an appeal for mercy. Mrs. Hargraves, who was now in toars, cried t: “I do appeal for mercy with all my henrt. Fieve knowntand loved Ethel (Airs. Osborue) all my Jife and am convinced that she is not in her tight mind.” Mra. Hargraves here broke down and could not continue her appeal. The scone was very affecting, all the principals in the sad uffair be- ing in tears and most of the ladies in the court room also weeping and uttering sobs. The jude maintauted his stoicism and proceeded io deliver sentence. Turning toward the risoner he said: “Florence Osborne you ve pleaded ity to larceny and perjury.

The Sonate today pressed the Morrill bill *‘to regulate the practice of dentistry in the Dis- trict and for the protection of the people from wi empiricism in relation thereto.” The Dill bas been amended to consider- able extont.

From the St. Louis Globs-Democrat. J.R Bull says: The newspapers recently stated the fagt of the presence of an American oak in the imperial gardens at St. Petersburg. Concerning this tree a curious story was told many yours ago, apparently with absolute veri- fication. When afr. President, was in St. Petersburg as American minister he was ono day visited by a tall, awk- ward Yankee, who, being requested to state his business, immediately sid that he wanted to seo the cmpero:. He was obtain- ing an interview with the omperor was no easy task, but not being disposed to take a refusal he was requested to leave his namo and return in about o fortnight, whon his application would probubly be considered and deterrained. A week or two lator the American minister was surprised by a visit from the tall Yan- keo, and beginning to asenro his visitor that an interview with the emperor could not be obtained. the Yuukce responded that ho had alrendy seen the em- peror and had Just called in at the embassy for the purpose of saying good-bye, as Le was on his way home. Mr. Dallas was dumtounded rticulars; when be found that the man actually had, by sheer force of brass, succecded in passing the guards at the palace and scoing the emperor. “I gave him a present, too.” “What was it?” inquired Bir. Dallas. “An acorn from Mount Vernon, from a tree that grew ever Washington's tomb. ‘The emperor planted it tn the garden with his own hands. I followed him out and saw him plant it.” Strange as the story was it wus true, aud the oak now growing in the imperial gar: dene at St. Petersburg sprung from the acora carricd thither asa a to the emperor by the long, awkward American.

Tho morning hour having expired.on motion of Mr. McMillin (Tenn.), the House went into committee of the whole upon revenue bills, Mr. Blount (Ga.) being designated as the pre- siding officer. ‘Mr. McMillan addressed the Houre as follows: ‘Mr. Chairman, the last Congress imposed the highest tariff taxes ever levied in this country. Italso mado the most extravagant appropria- tions ever made here in time of ‘This | Congress was sent here to correct both evile. The expenditures in the two years for which | the last Congress appropriated. besides the deficiencies, aggrorated — $1,009,000.000, 240 er family annuelly, or ‘more than $500, ,000 each year, about one-third of all! the money in existence in the United States. | When we take fr: dred millio om our currency the one bun- | f gold held for relemption pur- the national banks aud the different reserves held from circulation in other ways we find | that these expenditures reached annually nearly one-half of all tho money in actual cir-| culation. Can thero be permanent prosperity while one-half or even one-third of ail the money has to go through the hands of a fed- eral taxgatheror every year besides the taxcs for the state, county and municipal purposes? Thore is » remedy. Impose lesa taxos and spend less money. That {s what this Congress means and means to do. Mr. Chairman, the tariff law has now been in operation for one year and five months, Where aro the beneficial effeots that were to flow from it? Where is that maguificent price the farmer and wool grower was to realize trom it? Where ee increased wage. the laboring man was gel ‘The laborer has been forced to pay more for the roof that shelters him, for the hat that covers his head and the woolens that cover his back.

It was passod under the pretonse of adesire to benefit Lim, yet whilo his wages stand still or go down, what he, bis wifeand children consume bas been increased tn price unconscionably.

Without a single exception, so far ax I now remember, they testified that the value of farms had goné down within the last six years all the way from 25 to £0 per cent. The duty on wool was in 1867 placed at 11 cente a pound on unwashed wool ‘This was by an agreement entered intc between the Na- tional Association of Wool Manufacturers and the Association of Wool Growers, and they dic- tated the terms to Congress. it was claimed that this would foster tho sheep industry and increase the value of wool to the farmer. He then went on to give statistics, and added: whole mutter may be sammed up ia the fact that after twenty-five years of experiment with high rates of duty on wool, the result has been a reduction of one-half in the number of sheep in states cast of the Mussissppi and Missouri rivers and a reduction of about one- half in the price of wool. Nor bave the results been encouraging to wool manufacturers. They have been. re- stricted as to the quality of wool they could afford to buy in the grease by the resson of the tariff. They have beon restricted in markets substantially to their own country. | They bave been forced to use shoddy as a sub- | stitute for woolen goods.
