h NEW YORK HERALD, WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 24, 1872.-TRIPLE SHEET, WASHINGTON. Glaptrap Debate on the Amnesty Bill im the Senate. The Yellowstone Land of the Geysers. The Most Wonderful Park in the World. A CABINET WEDDING. Seeretary Robeson Married to Mrs. Aulick. ‘THE PATE OF THE ARKANSAS TRAVELLER, Wasminoton, Jan. 23, 1872. ‘Srumbull as a Wag—The Yellowstone Park— Ampeaty Again Debated in the Senate. ‘The Senate’s morning hour was chiefly consumed tm the presentation of petitions. Mr. Sumner diver- sified bis usual batch of pleas for the civil rights amendment by one from Georgia relative to the Ku Kinx were, Mr, Trumbull is in danger of being esteemed @ wag. Since he assumed the part so ‘congenial to his temperament of inside oritic to the republican party, te has been the means of pro- Voking laughter. To-day Senator Schurz and him- welf presented a large number of petitions for the re- peal of duties on coal, salt and irom and for the revision of the tariff on astrictly revenue re- form basis, Mr. Trumbull playiully cailed the at- Zention or Mr. morrili, of Vermont, to these appeals, He suggested this because Mr. Morrill looked sor- yowful over the number, As Morrill’s face is ofa ‘wpueful cast’? at the best, there was a good deal of Yaughver. Later in the morning Mr. Trumbull preated another diversion by moving to amend a Dill for the admission of some machinery free of uty, in the way of repealing tue auty oncoal, This ‘was afterwards withdrawn. Mr, Pomeroy reported and wanted immediate ac- tion op a bill setting aside a tract of forty by forty- four mules at the head of the Yellowstone River, to be used only aga national park. The bill puts the reservation uader the controlof the Interior De- partment, and -allows the Secretary to lease from time to time such small portions as may be neces- for the cunstruction of hotels, &c. This feature fof the measure excites suspicion, and Mr. Thurman ‘prompuy opjected to present consijeration. Tne Fegion proposed to be reserved includes nearly all the magnificent scenery and striking natural phe- pomena of thermal springs and boiling geysers, explored by Proleasor Hayden ana the geological @xpedition under his charge. The tract includes a lake, desorived in glowing terms by Clarence King and others. i After some unimportant business the amnesty Gebate was resumed, and Senator Morton addressed the Senate. It svon became evident that his speech was designed for political effect. The Senator is slways at his best In such efforts, He opposed am- M@esty and favored Mr. Sumner’s amendment. Amnesty was not needed; treason ought to bo -branded. If general amnesty was adopted the next step would be to demand that rebe! soldiers should be pengioned and rebel claimants be paid for war damages a8 our own loyal soldiers and citizens were. Mr, Thurman interjected in his usual dry ‘Way, whether Morton believed in the validity of the fourteentn amendment, and if he did how tt was poesib'e for things to be done which that expressly Jorbade, Mr. Morton’s reply was apt as the ques- Sion. He believed, but te democracy did not, ‘whenever they got Jato power, all these things would be attempted. Amnesty now would be their ®xcuse them. Thorman quizvically asked if the Indiana Senator could name the time when the @emocracy woula govern. Morton’s retort was greeted with great laughter, in which barman jomed. He said, “all things were possible in the providence of God. Great plagues had come; Chicago was burned; famine desolated Persia, and the aemocracy might win.” ‘The democracy was a kangaroo party; its strength ‘was all in its ower limbs. The South was its power, and it was to Southern sentiments the leaders must dow if ‘ever victorious again. Hence the folly of yielding now. Of course Mr. Thurman rose to re- ply, His speech was inthe main luke Morton’s—a Political que. It was terse, telling and effective. He midiculed-and denounced Morton's views, declaring the republican leader’s speech to be the same old tune played.ao long and 80 oft before, and Morton made a brief. ana deflant reply, and was followed in am sbort speech by Senator Scott, who favored tne femoval of disabilities, not as a measure of amnesty—a word that he thought was a misnomer here—nor as one of conciliaion, but simply because the country was strong enough to do it with safety. He inaicated a belief on his own part that the rebel elements were still strong enough to make danger ible, and he preferred to clear the ee for what might come. The-Senator thought ® government ought to punish its criminals, that an @usuccessrul rebellion was treason, and that 1t was evidently asign of weakness not to have punished Mt: but the removal of disabilities would not affect thie. Hence he was willing toadopt this bill; he ‘would also vote for Sumner’s measore separately. There was an attempt made to arrange for taking a vote to-morrow, but nothing came of it, and the ing the Legisintive, Execu- Judicial Appropriations. ‘The change from the fleid-day parade of yesterday to the Guiness of camp to-day, with neither rhe- sorte up from Snapp, was very noticeapie. iter the méYning hour haa expired, Mr. Garfleid mores jg go into thé Committes of the Whole, ana Sonat argue on the first instalment of his age Gs oxpenate in the Logie} Executive and Faas ‘Apprvpirawe Uslle ti mayateries of finance with vigor and earnestness, the Bublictios of this question aroused the in- Yerest of the members, who gave unusual @tvention to its discussion, and cleared the ladies’ galleries. The consideration of economic expendi- Vores ia not particularily relished by the. fair sex, theoretically or practically. In making an analysis of our expenses, Mr. Garfleld severely criticised the manner of keeping the accounts of the government, ‘which bas already been so freely criticised in the HeaaLp. He sound many things charged as ex- penses which were no part of the expense of the government. For instance, he said the ‘entire pre- ium on gold was charged as expense, and the premium on bonds exchanged for gold credited fas receipts, while the actual expense’ was the difference between the two. ‘The expenses of the War Department were reduced to $86,000,000 by the applicawon of $8,260,000 received from the sale of condemned ordnance and stores, which had been applied wo the expenses. Mr. Garfield showed a Gecrease of the public debt amounting to $566,500,000 since July 81, 1865. The bill under con- aideration he sald was $2,336,000 less than last year @nd $8,000,000 less than the amount of estimates of this year, Mr. Garfleld took eccaston to compll- ment the commutve of last year upon Its work, and gave it credit for ability and economy, Mr. ‘Wood, of New York; was quick to seize ‘the opportunity offered to make a little party capital Out of the consideration of this bill, by gotmg into accusations of extravagance and corruption against the party in power, contrasting the expenditares Of the present with the administration of James Buchanap, and instanced the Appropriation act of 1960 for the contingent expenses of the White Mouse, which were $360, and in this bill have Bwelled to “$4,000. Mr, Wood regretted that the accomplished Chairman of Appropriations had not Gevoted sess time to disquisitions on political economy and more to telling us where the people's mouey was going in keeping up this extrava- gance. The expenses, he sald, ovght to bo back ‘© the good olf times of Memocratis’ rule, when they never exceeded a2 fendea tne administration against this attack, and ra me : se aues| WIPE MURDER AND SUICIDE. asked the gentleman from New York for something more than glittering generalities. If these compiatots of extravagance mean anything it is that the debt is Det to be paid, that the bounty to soldiers isto go without settiement, for these expenditures make up the extravagances the gentieman complains of. In reply Mr, Wood instanced the increased cost of the collection of the Customs as another item of extravagance, saying that the cost of col- lecting a large sum Was no greater than that of & small sum. General debate upon the bill was then closed and it was read by sections for consideration and amendment, eliciung no comment until the paragraph was reached in relation to the salary of the Chief Olerk of the State Department, when Mr. Munroe, of Oblo, moved to increase his salary {rom $2,200 to $2,500 per annum, and spoke earnestly of the worth and ability of tnis officer. Before action ‘was reached upon this amendment the committee arose. Some routine work being disposed of, tne House agjourned. secretary Robeson’s Wedding. Secretary Robeson wis married to Mra, Richmond Aulick at the Church of the Epiphany this morning. ne wedding being strictly private. Not more than fifty persons were present, the company being confined to the personal friends of toth families, whe President and memopers of the Cabinet, with ‘heir wives, apd the delegation in Oongress from New Jersey. At balf-past ten o'clock tue Secretary, or, more properly, the groom, entered the church with as much ease as If going to his desk at the Navy Department; saying as he went im, “Close the door the bride 18 coming,’’ this being only a variation of his cus tomary morning order at the department—“Tell the Unter Clerk 1am nere.”” He was accompanied by his young friend, Mr. Cadwallader, of Phila- delphia, A few moments afterwara the bride en- tered, escorted by Mr. Montgomery Biair. When she approached the chancel rail the groom joined her, the Rev. Dr, Starkey coming forward at the same time and the grand orgau pealing out the notes of Schumann's ‘‘Trumerie,” This piece was a great favorite with Mra, Aulick, and it was played at the wedding at her express desire. The com- pany came into the church at their pleasure, tho uninvited being rigorously excluded, and were scat- tered through the front pews, when the bride and groom arrived, Av the close of the ceremony the guests congraiulatea the nappy couple, the Presi- dent, among others, kissing the bride, and then the Secretary and his wife left the church to start on their bridal tour. Among the most noticeable of the company were Commodore Aulick and bis little grandson, Mrs, Roveson’s only son by her former marriage, the latter going to the church in charge of his nurse, People inclined to joke about this Vabi- net wedding say the bride disappeared in smoke, her dress, & travelling suit, being of that peculiar snade called London smoke, She is a lady of very marked appearance, having prematurely gray hair, which being very white and intertwiming with the biack, the natural color, gives her by the contrast a de- cidedly distingué air. The distinguishing features of Mr. Robeson’s dress were a blue neektle and a rosebud bouquet In hus buttonhoel. That rosebud and tle, it ts expected, will be seen in Broadway to-morrow. The Secre- tary will nog return for ten days. Proposal to Create a Department of Sclonce— Alterations and Convolidations Needed in Scientific Bran of the Service. Much interest is manifested by scientific men, especially those acquainted with the practical re- sults gained to navigation, commerce and other great material interests by the investigations and publications of the scientific offices of the guvern- ment, concerning the extent of support and recog- nition the solenufic branches are to receive in the ‘appropriation bills this sessfon. The Coast Survey, which aske for $726,000, is being, 1 18 claimed, In some degree diverted from the utilities which it ‘was intended to promote, and, since the death or Professor Bache, a West Polnter and army engineer, is becoming, in the view of praoti- cal men, @ mere sajunct to Harvara College, and the scientific aspirations and ambitions of Cam- bridge protessors. Great delay in the publication of modern charts is charged on the office, and it 1s alleged that years instead of months elapse before changes in important lignthouses and buoys are indicated on the charts furnished to navigators, It has been seriously proposed by those interested in the practicat usefulness of this work to merge the Coast Survey with the Hydrographic Bureau of the Navy, now rising into practical importance under good management, and to carry the consolldati on forward wil it takes in the Lighthouse Board, now attached fo the overburdened Treasury Department, and the Storm Signal Service of the War Department.’ The work of the Ooast Survey is nearly allied to one branch of the duties of the army Corps of Engineers, there being in fact much dupltcation of the work of one corps by the other, and the question of the consolidation of the two was formaliy presented to Congress in a report of the House Military Committee three years ago. The scientific adjuncis of the different execu- tive departments have increased #o rapidly since the close of the war that, in the opinion of men of acknowledged administrative ability, there is more need now of a Department of Science than has ever = for the nondescript Department of the In- Te The Kent Southern Claim in Jeopardy. The Southern Claims Commission were wholly engaged to-day on the claim of Horace L. Kent, semior partner of the house of Keut, Paine & Uo., of Richmond, V&, amounting to $26,000, for wood cut from his lands in that State, The day was chiefly spent in efforts by the claimant to overcome the adverse testimony of certain violent and abusive expressions toward the Lincoln gov- ernment in two business letters to Messrs. Austin, Vall & Oo. of Baltimore, in the early months of the war. These letters, admitted to be in the handwriting of the claimant, are before the courts at Richmond as evidence in a business. suit between the two firms, and copies of them have found their Way to the office of the Claims Commis- sion, The examination before the Commissioners partook at times of the character of a post-mortem be into the loyalty of the late John Minor Botts, and certain of his rélatives present denied that he had ever contracted to furntsh supplies to the Con- federacy or apgril: tengugged President Lincoin’s Emaucipation Proclamation.

It was a treMendous effort, ana commanded the admjration of all who heard it, His severe analysis of the evidence, and the remark- able force and exceeding clearness with which be presented the case for tne prosecution, told power- fully upon the jury, A number of prominent gentlemen were present, among whom were the Hon.

WHARTON's Most TROUHLES MOMENTS. At the conclusion of Mr. Syester’s speech there was @ flutter and confusion in the court room that told of the intense excitement then prevailing. At length the moment had arrived when the destinies of Mra. Wharton and the hopes of her daughter were to be removed irom the «domain of argument to a dread decision of twelve of their feliow countrymen. The countenances of Mrs, Wharton’s counsel wore an expression of intense anxiety. Undoubtedly for weeks they had exhausted all that talent, ingenuity aud eloquence coula suggest to secure a favorable issue. But at moments like this an undefined feeling of hesitation and embarrassment will come to the best of men. Have they done their whole duty?

MANCHESTER, N. H., Jan. 28, 1872, ‘The weekly New England wife murder occurred Hitherto Massachusetts has oeen the scene of crimes of this description, at least for the past four weeks; put now New Hampshire has put in an appearance for @ share of the dis- honor, and the murder here to-day, with the accompanying suicide of the murderer, was more remarkable than any of those which have recently preceded it. Im Littleton three weeks ago Patrick Keating killed nis wife, aud then made a fruitless attempt at suicide, because of the maddening influence of mtoxicauing drink, Mrs. Vanner was killed by her husband, and he im turn suffered a speedy death at the hands of the police authorities, But the causes of the wife murder and suicide of to-day have not yet been ascertained, unless, indeed, they were both the efects of @ sudden and unex- pected paroxysm of insanity. The particulars, as I learned them at a late hour this evening, May be given thus:—Dennis Shea, ap industrious and respectable man, of about fifty years of age, with his wife and four children, came to reside im Manchester several years ago, ‘hey were natives of Ireland. Shea was @ laboring man, and his wife, ahealihy, good-natured woman of comely aspect, looked after the domestic affairs of whe household, white the — chil- dren ali worked tn the factories, The family inhabited a tenement over a store on Elm, between Auvurn and Cedar streets, and by their quiet habits os behavior acquired the respect of all their neighbors, THE MURDERER’S FAMILY, The city authorities have nothing to alle against the character of any member of che family; Ubey were all industrious and temperate in every, reapect. Dennis some months ago had laid ap mouey sufficient to enable him to revisit his nauve country, from which he returned only three weeks since, No change was exhibited in his manner, which has always been ghat of a kind indulgent husband and father, and¥ there were no | Jorebodings of the terrible calamity woilch has re- sulted from bis insane actions of to-day. Since his returu, however, Shea has been unable to obtain work, and perhaps there may have been a de- pression. of spirits from this cause, although his sons and daughters, the eldest of whom ts nearly | twenty years of age, earned money enough to drive | away the woll from the door; stili there might have been a feeling of self-respect on the part of Mr, Shea, which led him to feel reluctant at accepting assist- ance from suci a source, but there Were no out- ward signs of this; oh the contrary, Mr. Shea has been very free in his manuers lately. More blithe and jolly, if possible, than ever, the causes of his sudden change of mind cau only be matters of con- jecture. This morning he got up, as usual, at an early hour, and assisted his wife in filling the Wash boiler and preparing the clovues for the wash- ing, which she proposed to do this afternoon, He joked and chatted in an unusually merry man- ner, and told the neighbors that he was going to do half the washing himself. Mra, Shea, too, although oflate she has suffered from illness which produced a species of melancholy, seemed to have recovered * her good spirits to-day, and laughed and chatted like'@ young girl. She arew several pails of water | from the well for washing, aud prepared the beet | which she intended to for dinner, | assisted py her husband, and placed it jin the stove to be cooked. At " about ning o'clock ghe went to the corner grocery on Aubarn and Elm streets, and purchased two quarta of soft soap to facilitate her afternoon’s work; but the door had scarcely been closed before she re- traced her steps and re-entered the store with @ demand for ‘A hand of tobacco FOR MY OLD MAN,'" Her husband had not been since early morning, but it has since been learned that he was busying himself in ouch al work, At, yee ball past tea o'clock when thé ragedy occiirred, $ Mr. Keeltey, a next-dodr neighbor, and the land. jer {rom Whom the house was hired, was standin; in his doorway when he heard a woman’s 6c! “Oh, my!” “Oh, my!” “Oh, my? “Oh, my! he heard frantically exclaimed; and ne looked about to see Mrs, Snea standing at the foot of ane 8 which led to her apartments, with bi ushing frem her head, and gesticulating violentiy in the air. At first it seemed as i she were Insane, | but before he could forin an opinion on the subject her footsteps were heard as she hurriedly ran up the stairs. Keeitey put on his coat and followed, only to fina {| that aghastly scene was to meet his gaze. .In the | little fifteen by twenty kitchen, ou the right of the corridor, where the family cooked their daily meals, Dennis Suea iay in the agomies of death. His throat } was Cat erely Irom ear to ear, and the gap’ | wound was so deep as to admit of the entrance two fingers of the hand. On the floor there was A BIG PUDDLE OF BLOOD, and the wall was spattered with gore. He cast ms eyes upwards towards his wile, who was herself bleeding to death and was bending over him in tears, and with a deep groan he expired. Mrs. Shea up to this time had been sustained by nervous excitement, but when she began to realize the fact that her husband was dead a reaction took p.ace and she fell to the floor. kKeelty, with the ase sistance of the neighbors who bad been attracted to the scene, picked her up and carried her to an adjoining room, wiicre she was laid in the bed. ‘Tue news of the tragedy was quickly circu- luted about the town—soon enough to reach the ears of the physicians, after an hour or two of gos- sip,-and they put in an appearance, made what they deemed to be the necessary surgical examina- tioa and went away. Upon the face of the mur- dered woman were found several contu- sions, and on her nead was @ ghastly cus of great depth, extending to e rain. | Several pieces of the skull Were extracted there- from. At twelve o’clock to-night there were no well grounded hopes of her recovery.

As been stated above, she was lying in @ room less than ten leet square, on a course bedtick, and surrounded by a crowd of half drunken and more than balf sense. leas people, with her eyes half closed and breathing in @ stentorious manner, Her lace wag covered With blood; the leit cheek, which had been bagi brutsed, was swollen to a great extout, and neF eyes protruded hall out of the sockets, Nobody, to the great pietanore OF THE MANCHESTRR PHYSICIANS, be tt gaid, bad taken su) nt pains dress her wounds, dr even give directions for the proper ven- tilation of the apartpent, and the woman had laid there for — twelve long hours with- oat any medical aid, and no_ attention beyond what was rendered her by the crowd which poured within side the doors. At no time since the murder had her wounds beeu dressed, or, indeed, had anything been done to alleviate her sufferin, The physicians seemed to have come to the cons sion that her death was certain and to have be- stowed no pans towards rendering her passage to be | grave - ony ae possible Under, carlin eum ces.

The local papers talk as follows concerning the catastrophe:— “fhe Shea family consisted of the father and mother, three sons and a daughter. The eldest son is about twenty years of age, and the youngest about ten years 0! age.
