On Thursday evening last, with the ther- mometer at ninety-three degrees in the cham- ber, the House of Representatives at half-past seven o'clock went into Committee of the | Whole (Mr, Cullom, of Illinois, in the chair) for general debate—that is, for the purposg, of ‘a round of stump speeches of the {88ués, CAn- didates and platforms connected with the Presidential contest. This is a convenient method of circulating, through the Congres- sional Globe, at the public expense, the learned, profound, instructive, but superfluous ha- rangues of the members on the political situa- tion for the general information of the country. Mr. Stone (democrat), of Maryland, opened the discussion, in continuation of his speech of the preceding evening, in defence of General Frank Blair's trenchant letter on the Congres- sional system of Southern reconstruction—that startling letter in which the bold Missourian says if elevated to the White House he would, 4 la Cromwell, but without any psalm singing, make short work of the Long Parliament and all its doings. Mr. Stone contended—in the Pickwickian sense, no doubt—that> this letter was a manly appeal to the conservative senti- ment of the country in behalf of State rights, as expounded in the Virginia and Kentucky reso- lutions of '98 and 99. This was a long time anterior to the Deluge; but Mr. Stone was speaking for the Maryland democracy of the strict construction school, according to the constitution as it was and the Union as it is in the oyster regions of Chesapeake Bay. Next in order came Mr. Hill (republican), of New Jersey, in an exposition of the principles and purposes of the republican party, as un- derstood among the. “‘huckleberry” plantations and peach orchards in the imperial dominions of Camden and Amboy. Last November, on universal negro suffrage, Mr. Hill and his po- litical brethren found in the results of their State election that they had undertaken an uphill business, and it is probable that they will have their hands full in pleading the more convenient policy of compulsory negro suffrage by act of Congress, in South Carolina, for in- stance, and suffrage according to the will of the States north of Mason and Dixon’s line. Mr. Maynard (republican), of Tennessee, preached from an easier text—the public ser- vices and solid and reliable character and qualifications of General Grant for the highest public trust. We have heard it said that Mr. Maynard, on the stump in Tennessee, is re- garded by his friends as more than a match for Andy Johnson in “swinging round the circle.” In any event we are free to infer that with the thermometer in the House at ninety-three Mr. Maynard, in undertaking a campaign speech by gaslight, must have thought the occasion to be ‘‘big with the fate of Cesar and of Rome,” and likewise Pompey. f The ‘Old Commoner,” more familiarly known as ‘Old Thad,” next took the floor, and in being able to do so at near ten o'clock at night, with the mercury among the nineties, after a week of such sweltering heats in Wash- ington, it proves that the old man, who for many months has been reported on the verge of dissolution, is still possessed of a prodigious amount of vitality. The indomitable leader of the House, however, had something more im- portant to deliver than the ¢ommon opinions of his party on the Chicago or New York nominations and articles of faith; for he rose to the discussion of a resolution reaffirming the right of the House to a voice in all treaty stipulations involving the purchase of terri- tory, and to instruct the Committee on Foreign Affairs to inquire into the expediency of pro- viding funds to purchase a convenient naval station and depot among the West India islands, if the same can be had at a reasonable price, and requiring negotiations at the same time to be instituted in view of such purchase. This, if not satirical, means that while Mr. Stevens is in favor of the island of St. Thomas or the bay of Samana fn Dominica, he is opposed to leav- ing such contracts exclusively to the State De- partment and the Senate. It is evident, too, from the preamble to the Alaska Appropriation bill, that Mr. Stevens has the House at his command on this proposition. The terrible Logan, of Illinois, came next, in a tearing philippic on the democratic plat- form, in which he pronounced the personnel of the Tammany Hall Convention as ‘‘the same parties who started the rebellion and sought the destruction of our nationality’—the very theme for Logan. He was followed by Mr. | Van Horn, of New York, on the same side, {and at ten o'clock P. M., exhausted by the oppressive heat and these superfluous cam- paign speeches, and saturated with perspira- tion, and panting for the cooling application of asherry cobbler or a ‘lemonade with a stick in it,” the committee rose and reported pro- gress, and the House adjourned. Moral—When the House of Representatives ean find no better employment for a night ses- sion, with the thermometer at ninety-three, than the discussion of the Chicago and Tam- | many Hall platforms, it is high time for Con- gress to shut up shop and go home.

The Strike in Pennsylvanin—The Eight Hou Law. The coal miners of Pennsylvania are fighting pretty good bread and butter in the interest of the Eight Hour law. That glorious piece of demagoguery is a great boon to the discon- tented in every workshop and every craft. Soreheaded fellows who have always some cause of complaint, who go from man to man cultivating dissatisfaction, who are fertile in whispered sneer and slur against that oppres- sive capitalist, the boss—these have now a tool conveniently fitted to their hands, and for once they have the proud satisfaction of say- ing—what they have always said, however— that the law is on their side. This law, unless the workmen for whom it was made are wiser than they who made it, will disorganize labor wherever men endeavor to enforce it against the laws of trade, and will do nothing else. Perhaps a Legislature, pretending to act for the health of the people or for their welfare in other respects, may have the right to say that a laboring day shall consist of eight hours. It then only makes a sort of abstract definition, and con- tracts for labor will be made in accordance with that definition; but no Legislature ever could or ever can justly define what men shall be paid for their labor. Trade must regulate itself in that regard, and thus it results that at the same time that hours are cut down wages must be cut down, and if a man would earn as much money as he did before he must work the same time and call it a day and a quarter instead of aday. No trade that was not ex- cessively unjust before can pay men for eight hours what it paid for ten. This would ruin employers, and the ruin of employers is the ruin of workmen, though they are blind enough generally to regard it as their triumph. The coal miners in Pennsylvania, therefore, cannot succeed unless their strike forces up the price of coal, and this will be a success, not against their employers, but against con- sumers. It will also be a,fictitious and tem- porary success, and the price will go down at the next fall in coal. Thus the miners will never know where they are until, perhaps, there may be three grains of sense scattered in some future Pennsylvania Legislature and it will repeal the law. The “Manly Art”—International Courtesies. Our sporting record from England, by mail to the 7th of July, announces that Jem Ward, a famous English pugilist, had taken his de- parture from Liverpool for the United States of America, and that Mr. W. Cleaver, a host of the “fancy,” residing on the line of the Eighth Avenue Railroad somewhere between the corner of Saint Paul's churchyard and Bloomingdale, New York, accompanied by a number of ‘American cousins,” had arrived in London and would be happy to meet his British friends at old Jemmy Shaw's, near Bow street. Mr. Jem Ward, who visits this country from the United Kingdom, was classed as a ‘‘first rater” in the palmy days of the British prize ring, when Spring, Crawley and the others were at ‘‘their best.” He has fought many battes, in all of which he displayed great science and pluck, and by his high tone and bearing outside the roped arena earned for himself the happy honor of being indiscriminately known as the “Black Diamond” and ‘Gentleman Jem.” In his intellectual development Mr. Ward pos- sesses a most happy power of adjusting the balance of what may be termed the compensa- tion of physique, for he is an artist of no mean talent; so that if the exercise of his combative science in one profession leads him to smash a man’s nose he can chisel or draw a new one, and in his own proper person he will both break your bones and ‘“‘set them in their socket.” With such qualifications and polish Mr. Ward will be a very agreeable representative of England ‘‘near” the American people, and it is to be hoped that Mr. W. Cleaver’s presence will produce an equally pleasing impression in Broad Court, London, The publication of this intelligence in the columns of the Hkratp will be very well re- ceived in New York; but it is in Boston that it will produce its grand effeot in the way of na- tional encouragement and assurance. Conceal it as they may, the Bostonians, like ourselves, could not place implicit reliance on an Anglo- American founded on the | interchange of literary Bohemianism—a basis entente cordiale which any dyspeptic malcontent of the order on either side could, if particularly hungry and ont at elbows, disturb by singing “Yankee | Doodle” with an emphasis of glorification or by reading in pub) cha pters of | “Martin Chuzzlewit” Mr. ‘‘Jef- ferson Brick” Dickens time to get out that new will have his in social refinement ‘‘Joffer- ow are the purpose of “first in lly no- ians must t is only the r the Pilgrim everybody in gration, and ! enemy to | battle with at home they ine out here and | “pitehe right and left,” ¢ Keres aad selves fa 1 few before had yn which ed binding twon af, each a if called on, this truth » be war ar thing like mu acknowle: reassertion of a first prin Fathers themselves fou England previous to ¢ em | when they could flad ny uew into” the r Sian ing up witel » wished i) vad £ ver don't want to go to flad out who th Like ers or godmothera w embe ves aut of Bow | ton or Cambridge University or New York, | but of humanity in its universality. The Bo- hemian alliance almost excluded Ireland from its operation, whereas the Ward-Cleaver mis- sion will cover the nationalities as broadly and evenly as Lord Stanley’s naturalization bill, and the time cannot be far distant when by its full fruition the Hon. John Morrissey—a million- naire, a ‘‘miller” and an M. C.—will go over to England, attended by his squires, his gloves and belt fringed with the American flag and ‘Union Jack,” to adjust some pressing dificulty—it may be to settle the Alabama claims with Jem Ward. The Bohemians must look to their laurels and their profits, their diamonds and their drinks, Salt Water Baths for the People. The Park isa grand success—a great boon to the people in recreation and a great educa- tor of the masses in good manners, a real power tending to refinement, The public life it induces, with agreeable circumstances, is the greatest foe to vice, degradation and all the worse part of the life of great cities. But the hot season must make us all sensible that there is a wantin this regard which that splendid institution does not supply. We want salt water parks for the people. We want free public baths, on an immense scale, at conve- nient points on our river front. Every man, woman, boy and girl of the masses of our city should have a plunge in the salt water every morning or every night, and the city would be the better for it from every point of’view. It would be healthier in the persons of the bathers. The air'would be purer, for the city would become cleaner. People who bathed in the salt water daily would find it a better stimu- lus than Five Points whiskey, and they could not go from that fresh, invigorating revel in the water into the filthy tenement house homes they are satisfied with now. They would clean up. It would elevate the morale. Is it not astonishing to regard the condition we are now in with respect to baths? While all agree as to their value, while @ great part of the population that can afford it goto the sea to bathe, the people of the city may swelter in sight of the water, and a city ordinance rules them out of nearly every foot of our whole twenty-four miles of water front until the coming of night shall have made the indulgence decent and dangerous. Let us have salt water parks for the people. At the Bat- tery is a good place for the first. Send that grand nuisance, the emigrant depot, at once to Ward's Island (its proper place), and give the people a good five acres of the river front there. Place at least one bath of similar size on the North river and one on the East river at convenient points above Fourteenth street. Here is something for the Board of Health to do by which it may commend its name to a grateful future. England “Going Ahead” in Politics. A procession of the workingmen marched through the streets of London yesterday to Hyde Park, where a ‘‘mass” meeting was or- ganized, at which the speakers expressed their approval of the recent legislation of the House of Commons for the abolition of the Irish Church as a State establishment and pro- posed and carried resolutions in emphatic con- demnation of the action of the House of Lords in rejecting the Gladstone Suspensory bill. The proceedings were conducted in an orderly manner and the police did not interfere. A street procession and ‘‘mass” meeting in London on Sunday—when the Sixth ward politicians of New York, every one, attend church—place John Bull slightly ‘‘ahead” in the line of electioneering agitation. That’s John’s way, however; once he imagines that a matter is right he ‘“‘goes in” for it with a sudden “rush.” The cable telegram report makes the demonstration smell Fenianism to some extent; but no matter with whom it originated, its completion on the Sabbath in London renders it important asa sign of the times. The Rights of Property on Broadway. We give in another column the very able and clear decision of Judge Daniels, of the Supreme Court, on the application for the removal of the Broadway bridge. The deci- sion sets forth the legal rights of the owners of the property along Btoadway and establishes the fact that the street, never having been sur- rendered to the Corporation of the city in fee, still belongs to proprietors of the adjacent land, save so far as it may be used for the purposes of a thoroughfare. Judge Daniels tells us that neither the Legislature nor the Com- mon Council has a lawful right to grant any privileges to individuals or companies to use said street for any other purpose without first receiving the permission of the rightful owners. Under this ruling the railroad companies that have planted their rails in front of the Hzratp Building are squatters to the full extent and meaning of the word, and have no more right to retain their roads in that location than a goat fancier has to any up town vacant lot upon which he might choose to build his pens. We shall not stop to argue the matter with the street railroad companies, but will proceed at once, under. this decision of Judge Daniels, to enforce our rights through the medium of the proper tribunals. “Tue Nova Scotian Question IN tat Hovss or Lorps.—In the House of Lords, July 6, two petitions were presented from Nova Scotia praying for a repoal of the Cana- dian Confederation act so far as it affected that colony. Nova Scotia has not had mnore suc in the Lords than she had in the © ns.

An! Awerioan citizen in Mexico, as the story | runs, had with him a daughter—a minor— , whose glances became entangled with the | glances of some juvenile but unsatisfactory | Mexican, and the father, fearing consequences, | forbade the visits of the amoroso. But amo- roso was ardent, and not to be denied. He | Sppealed to the law. It isaqueer law. Only Persons of age gan make a marriage contract; minors must have the assont of parents or guardians; but parents or guardians must not { refuse assent for trivial reasons, and if they do the Governor of the State has a right to inquire into the case, and if not satisfied with the reasons for refusal he may send a file of soldiers for the damsel and give her over to the lover. It is obvious how easy it would be for the lover*in such a country to induce the magistrate to reject the reasons of an American father, and hence all will un- derstand that in this case the youthful Mexican had matters his own way. The American's daughter was taken from his house by the military force. To say that this is in accord- ance with law will not do. The American citizen should have had the protection of the nearest United States Consul, and through him an exemption from this law. The father had the same appeal to the law of the United States as the lover to the law of Mexico, and to re- fuse or abridge that right is an outrage that civilized governments do not commit, and that barbarous governments should not be per- mitted to commit with impunity. If we ever have a State Department to assert the rights of our citizens in one or two instances we shall be exempt from these outrages for many a year thereafter. How long will it be before any of the trumpery potentates or powers play this game again with the government that sent Na- pier to Magdala ? MorTiey THE OnLy Wear.—The Senate re- jected on Saturday the nomination of Collector Henry A. Smythe as Minister to Vienna, not- withstanding his unquestionable qualifications for the post. Probably the Senate would reject with equal obstinacy any other. nomination by the President, unless, indeed,’ he were to sur- prise it agreeably by sending in the name of the celebrated American historian whom the mythical McCracken and Mr. Secretary Seward some time ago displaced. President Johnson might make gracefully the first step towards a most desirable reconciliation between Congress and the Executive by concurring in the opinion of the Senate that ‘‘Motley's the only wear.” Goop Apvicze—That of Dr. Harris on the subject of health in the city during these “heated terms” of Calcutta. THE HEATED TERM. The Warm Weather Yesterday and Its Effects in the City. The condition of the weether yesterday varied slightly from that of the few days previous. It was exceedingly warm, yet a grateful breeze was stir- ring, much to the gratification of all city bound Gothamites. The record of the past week, unprece- dented in a number of years on account of its alarm- ing mortality scale, had a tendency to depopulate the streeta and avenues during the more sultry hours of the day. People sought cool retreats, either in the quyt of their homes or somewhere in the suburbs. As arule, however, the streets of the city were less frequented than they have been for many Sun- days. Pedestrianism was far below par, and even the horse cars or other means of exit from this overheated metropolis did not convey to the “rooral deestreacts” the vast numbers which usually depart on the day of rest for the quiet re- treats without the city’s limits. Even those enter- prising venders of stuff called soda water, who may be found on every other street, eager to turn an hon- est penny by the sale of the fluid, failed to realize the harvest they promise themselves when they pitched their tents in the mores. People are Setting pru- dent, and necessarily #0; Jo matters of meat and drink during the heated te Were precautionary measures in this respect bette? rved during the past week the number of fatal cates ulting both directly and indirectiy from the ex: it would have been far less than has been chronic!

The “railroad men” attributed it to the expansion of the iron by the intense heat, and this was megextent a probable supposition, inasmach as the rails that had sprung from their beds overlapped the adjoint sum. cient to went them from falling back into their places. is Was particularly observable in the fat rails, as they presented a wider surface for the sun to operate on, and being manufactured thinner than the T rails they were more subject to penetration by the heat. As the evening approached dark clouds began to gather and the city was baptized with a weicome shower bain of rain, During the day only one case of sunstroke was reported in the city. Patrick Sweeney, No. 152 Greenwich street, was prostrated by the heat. An unknown man was similarly affected tn Third avenue, near Tweuty-second street. Effects of the Weather Elsewhere.

While here his mechanical genius was directed to the invention of s gunpowder engine to drive, or rather propel, bai loons; but the engine, though evidencing couside:a- | ble skill and ability, proved a failure, its utility being easier demonstrated in theory tha: in practice. Fajiing in this Mr. Beach directed his attentio: st navigation and the Connecticut river, anu drew up a plan by which steamers could ve carrie. over the falis at Enfield.
