The joint committee ef the Senate and Assem- bly who were appointed to report a plan for the consideration of the constitutional amendments by the Legislature, presented their report to-day, through Mr. Pierson, in the Assembly. ‘THE COMMITTEE RECOMMEND ‘that as early a day as possible be fixed for the close of legisiative business, and that an extra ses- sion of the Legistature be called for the purpose of considering and passing upon the proposed amend- Inents; that at such session no legislative business be allowed te be introduced or considered other than the proposed amendments, and that such foint rules be adopted by the two Houses of the Legislatore as will prevent the introduction of any other legislative pusiness of any kind; that, upon ‘the assembling of the Legislature at the extra ses- sion the amendments to be distributed to proper committees to be examined and reported upon before being considered in the respective Houses; that the presiding officers may, if it is thought advisable, appoint committees especially toexamine and report upon the several amendments proposed; ‘that the amendment for changing and reorganizing the Senate and Assembly districts of this State be Telerred to a joint committee of the two Houses, to consist of five Senators and nine members of the ‘House of Assembly. THE GREAT DESIDERATUM. ‘They moreover say that, inasmuch as It is right and proper that the members of the Legislature should receive some compensation for their ser- wices in considering the amendments, a joint reso- Jution be passed by the two Houses requesting the Governor to call an extra session of the Legislature for the purpose indicated in the report, upon a distinct understanding that no ether or different business will be considered except that for which the extra session is called, The committee there- fore submit the following ° RESOLUTIONS -— Resolved af the Senate concur), That His Excellency, fhe Governer, as requested, no legislative business other than the proposed amendments be introduced or considered at such extra session, and that such joint rules of the two Houses of the Legislature be adopted as ‘will effectually prevent the iniroduction or consideration of any other legislative business, Resoived, That immediately atter His Excellency, the Governor, shall communicate his answer to the request contained in the foregoing resolutions, with his decision tination thereon, that this ‘committee resume the consideration of the subject referred to them, and report what further action, if any, shall be taken in ref erency to the sald proposed’ amendments and their con- sideration. CHALLENGES OF JURORS. The following ts the new jury bill which passea the Senate some weeks ago and was passed by the Assembly to-day :— Section 1.—AN challenges of Jurors, both in civil and criminal cases, shall be tried and determined py the Court only. Either party nay except to such determina- md upon a writ of error or ecrtiorari the Court May review any such decision the same as other ques- tions arising upon the trial. Ske. 2.—On the trial of ail felonies and misdemeanors the prosecution shall be entitled to the number of per: emptory challenges as are or may be by law sven to the actence. ‘Sec. 8—This act shall take effect Immediately. THE MORAL REFORMERS. The bill for the Suppression of Vice, introduced some time ago by Mr. Clark, passed to-day in the Assembly. The object of the society is to en; force the laws for the suppression ofthe trade in and circolation of obscene literature and illustra- tons, advertisements and articles of indecent and immora! use, as itis or may be forbidden by the Jaws of the State of New York or of the United States, . THE HOLIDAY BILL. ‘The holiday bill gave the hifatutin orators of the Assembly to-day a chance to open the sluice gates of their sephamsical twaddle, and they were not slow to take advantage of the opportunity. The motion to recommit the bill with mstructions, to add amoung other legal holidays the 30thof May, ‘was finally carried. In the Senate this morning THE POLICE JUSTICES BILL came up @n third reading, and Senator Murphy moved to recommit it to the Judiciary Committee, with instructions to restore the origina! clause re- quiring the new nominations of justice to be those of men who have had five years’ experience as law- yers and three years’ experience in New York This called forth a discussion of some Mr. James Wood defending the bill and op- [cong the amendment. The motion was finally it vy a vote Of 9to 15. Mr. Murphy then moved to recommit 80 that the new efticials shall not be appointed umtil the terms of the present oMcials expire, and made a@ five minutes’ argament in favor of This metion was also lost by a vote of7 t© 17. Then Mr. Murphy announced that, as the Senator from the “Twenty-fifth (Mr. Woodin) had decreed that the bill should go through withow: crossing a “t’?or dotting an ‘4,’ he would move to amend no more. Mr. Tiemann, — ver, moved to recommit, with instructions to stri Justices, As the voting on this metion proceeded it seemed quite Hkely fo carry, unless some extra- ordinary oxerti was brougitt fo bear. When Woodin’s mame wus called, the last one on the dl- vision list, the veung stood 13 fer the motion to 10 against it A few impassioned words from their Jeader branght enough faithful republicans to a sense of their duty, as thus interpreted, to save the bil. Lowery and Winslow, who had withbekl their wotes, announced themselves in the negative, while Ames, the newly arrived Senator, who has as yet bardiy become en rapport with the repwblican élique of the Senate, took oc- casion under the new light to change his vote from aye to the negative, e motion was shnounced Jost by a vote. of 1210 15. Considerable interest en- sued over this-episode, At least one Police Jus- tice from the city Was tn-uhe gallerics, and a large ertion ef the New York delegatien in the lower louse has taken posttionan the floor. Senator Johnsen moved aw amendment, to limit the salary of these ary.of the Board of Police Justices, aod in ad cy of the motion took occa- sion to scatke the “party” wery severely for sub- mitting to the mandates of the Senator from the Twenty-fifth, Whom he termed “the whipper in.’2 This motion Was oiso lost, aed on making one other amendment, ¢o forbid the clerk of a Police Court from heiduy two omices, he said i that tated le would let the bill through without dotting an “i? oF cross. ing at.

This bill has now passed both houses and gves to the Governor, THE GARDINER RAILWAY AND WAREHOUSE BILL, which has alre; been exposed in the HERALD, came up on third reading, and Senater Tiemann again made a determined effort to save the valuable franchises contained in it to the city. He moved to recommit, with instructions to strike out of the list all Incorporators who do not reside in New York city, and to leave to the Champer of Commerce the designation of persons to fill such vacancies in the list of corporators. This proposition was rejected, and Senator Woodin took occasion to denounce an insinuation that Senators from the rural districts had incorporators in their list, He said such an in- sinuation was simply contemptible. The voting commenced, and it was a wonderful sight tosee Gardiner. ‘The result was doubtful for some time. Senators had read the HERALD on this outrageous traud, and were disposed to evade voting, and in consequence Gardiner had to run around in a dreadful state of suspense, drumming 6 enough to make the necessary seventeen votes, At one time the Clerk, Glidden, informed him that he had enough, when, in fact, he had only fourteen, and the happy influencer of legislation walked away with a beatific expression on his countenance, But Glidden found out his mistake, and sent word to Gardiner that he needed three more votes. When he was told that, the electrified Gardiner shot like a dart for the cloak room, where man. backed by Madden, made a prayerful appe: ‘hich human hearts could not resist. He besought them for these enormons franchises as-pathetically as he might have asked for cold victuals on the verge of starvation. How could ne be denied? Senator Paimer was the one individual whose vote was needed and secured to pass the bill. He was assailed by Madden and Gardiner both, and Te. t was only a little favour for a friend. it was no more than one friend ought to do for another, you know. ‘True, the bill was bad once, but it had been amended out of all its objectionable features, and besides Gardiner has been here all this session, in fact, all of two three sessions, and it would be pretty hard on Gardiner, These were the arguments which were brought to bear on Senators. Palmer voted yea, announcing as he did so that he would have to take the statements of his Senatorial neighbors as to the merits of the bill, So the bill went through ana Gardiner was seen immediately after adjournment holding a dry celebration of the event with his friends Carey, Dixon, Jones, &c. Senator Lowery, on being called to vote among the knot of Senators, dug out of the cloak room, asked how the New York Senators voted, and being told “a unit in the negative,” said he would take their words tor it and vote that way too, The following is the vote (democrats and liberal republicans in italics) -— THE VOTE.

Mr. Weisman, of the New York delogation, had nat been in Ms seat since last Friday, and Mr. O’Brica, having xbsented himself when his own bill came up, had not returned, The bill is yet to go through the Lower House, where, it may be safely said it will have a harder time than in the Senate, and its voyage from the day of its intro- duction to the moment of its final passage there has certainly been a most tempestuous one, The Supplementary Charter—Amending for Havemeyer—Vacancies in the Boards of Aldermen—O’Sricn’s Bill. ALBANY, May 6—Evening. ‘The supplementary charter was discussed as a Special order in the Senate to-night, and was, as will be seen, very generally amended, Section 15, which declares the Commissioner of Public Works shall be amember of the Board of Estimates and Appointment, was, on motion of Mr. Woodin him- self, stricken out. In explaining this unexpected stand Mr. Woodin said that the proposed amendment was at the suggestion of an eminent citizen of New York who assisted lim in the detection of errors in the charter lately passed. He had himself favored the amendment, believing it vitaily necessary to a safe and harmo- nious working of the departments im the city, but he now moved to strike it out, at the suggestion of the Commjssioner of Public Works himself, who very anxiously desired to be relieved from the ad- ditional duties. The Commissioner of Public Works was currently credited with sleeping with the committee in order to get this amendment throngh the Senate, and regard for the committee as wellas Jor the commission, required that case should be stated just as it was, The amend- ment was consequently stricken out. YROTECTING HAVEMEYER, Senator D. P. Wood proposed the following amendment: Section 20is hereby amended td read as follows :—The Mayor in office on April 29, 1873, shall hold office until the first Monday in January, 1875, and shall be the chief executi jeer of the Corporation ; shall hold his office for the term of two years, and his successor shall be elected at the general Siate election In November, 1874. Senator Murphy wanted to know the necessity for the provision. Senator D, P, Wood replied that there was some uneasiness exhibited in New York over the possibile exclusion of the Mayor by the terms of the exirting charter. It was a forced con- struction he believed; but it was deemed safest to amend as he proposed. The amendment was adopted at once without a division, no one voting against it, VACANCIES IN THE ALDRRMANTC BOARDS. ve ee Benedict offered the following amend- ment :— Section 4 of said chapter is amended, so as to provide that vacancies in the Boards of Aldermen or Assistant Aldermen shall be filled by such Boards respectively. Senator Woodin explained that the charter pro- vided only tor vacancies which might occur in the upper Board alone, and not for vacancies which existed when the charter became @ law. A va- cancy had occurred during the interval when the bill was in the bands of the Governor. The ameud- ment was agreed to. ‘The bill was then ordered to a third reading. O'BRIEN’S BILL IN THE ASSEMBLY. Senator O'Brien's bill, with Shepherd Knapp, Delafield Smith and Jonn E, Develin as Commis- sioners, to,decide what, if any, claims the Senator has upon “the city and county of New York for services when he was Sherif, came down from the Senate thts evening, and the amendments of the Senate were concurred in by 78 to12, The bill is a fair one, and does not, as some people believe, appropriate money to Mr. O’Brien, It simpiy authorizes the Commissioners to examine into the validity of the claims and decide whether they are good or not. The Commissioners are men of prominence and reputation, and were chosen es- pecially on that account. No one need fear that their decivion, whatever it may be, will be prompted by other than motives of justice and Tigh WOMAN'S RIGHTS. anatl Dip Saseatinin Twenty-fifth Anniversary of the Move= ment—Apélio Hall Crowded with the Friends of Female Suffrage—Miss An. thony on “How to Vote”=—The Interna= tions’ Conwention of Paris and Who Are To Be There.

Miss Anthony’s Arrest. The evening session, which was called to give Miss Anthony an oppertunity of ventilating the story of her‘arrest fer voting last election in the city of Rochester, was well attended, the rear of the hall being filled with a metley crowd of men, who were very vociferous in their applause. Miss Anthony occupied two long hours in telling the story of her arrest and the consequent miles of ‘red tape.” Truthfully speaking, the address was net so much about her arrest as it was about the ambiguity of the law in reference to sutfrage. Susan, as she usually does, forgot the main object of her eg ant was con- tinually flying off on tangents which had no _concomitance to the subject. Hor arguments were much like elicans, for the main argument had a suicidal element in it; it killed itself to support @ myriad miuor argu- ments, and forthwith the minor arguments were resolved into nfain ones, and committed Jelo de ce to give life to another galaxy of other litties ones. ‘The address was an entertaining one, being in- terpelated with extempore dry jokes by Susan, but the quod erat demonstrandum was not arrived at when her retiring bow was made, and unlimited tether was given to Pegasus to find the moral. The gist of what she said about her arrest was that when the officers tried to treat her witha little civility, she rebutted them and insisted on being treated like an ordinary criminal; which she was not. She told very naively of how she made the United States Marshal ‘stana” the dinners and car fare when she was travelling for the accommodation of the govern- ment, and she expressed her deep regrets at the logs of $5 which she patd for fare before she knew it was Uncle Sam’s duty to do 80, Another regret she had, and one which she thought every believer in women’s rights experi- enced to a greater or lesser degree, was the pov- erty of the English language, which had not a word which would mean both sexes, Her peroration on the pronoun “he” was the ultima thule of her ad- dress, She knew that women had a right to vote, and she decidedly objected to their being called “her” in the law books, notwithstanding the fact that it had been asserted that she swore she was & male citizen of the United States, and voted while laboring under the hallucination, When the address was concluded the followin; ladies were appointed to attend the International Woman’s ‘Suttrage sonvention, which is to be held in Paris next Fal Mrs. Matilda F.

Bingham Urged for Minister to Russia, The sudden death of Minister Orr, at St. Peters- burg, makes @ vacancy in a first class mission, which is eagerly sought by a horde of nungry office- seekers, Itis specially claimed for the South. The record shows that out of the twenty-four ap- pointees since we had a representative at St. Petersburg, thirteen have been from Northern and eleven from Southern States. Pennsylvania is en- titled to precedence, having had six representa- tives, and South Carolina next having had three, Kentucky two, Connecticut two, Tennessee two, New Jersey two, while Delaware, Maryland, Maine, Alabama, Virginia, Massachusetts and New York had one each. Ohio has never been honored with but one appointment to a first class mission, and the friends of ex-Congressman John A. Bingham urge him as Orr’s successor. Sidmey Webstcr and the Vienna Com- mission. The report that Mr. Sidney Webster is to go to Vienna in connection with the aitairs of the Com- miesion is entirely without foundation, Mr. Web- ster goes abroad on private business, and has not, ‘and will not have, any relation whatever, direct or indirect, with the Vienna Commissioners, their affairs or the Exhibition. Sait Against the Credit Mobilier. Messrs, Ashton, Perry and Jenckes, the ‘counsel appointed by the Attorney General to institute suit against the Crédit Mgbilier stockhoiders, have so far completed their inVestigation as to be able to lay before the Attorney General a draft of the bill, which of itself will not be long, but as the natnes of all the stockholders and bondholders are to be cited in the bill, as defendants, the document may attain the size of the volume of charges against Boss Tweed, The Question About Messrs. Brooks and Ames. The recent death of James Brooks and the ex- pected demise of Oakes Ames has raised the ques- tion how they are to be proceeded against, The Attorney General says that their executors or ad- ministrators will be included in the list. It is the purpose of the prosecution to make all the stock- holders pay up all that is due and to recover from the Crédit Mobilicr stockholders all that was fraudulently obtained. When the sult shall be in- stituted had not been decided to-day, but the im- pression is that it will be either in Boston, the headquarters of the Mobilierites, or at Philadelphia, where the first suit was begun. ‘The expected death of Mr. Ames revives the memory of the old memorandum book and the famous capacious wal- let, the opening of which at one time was more alarming to certain Congressmen than had it been alion’s mouth, Both of these, it is understood, Mr. Ames had promised to leave when he died toa friend, that bis name might be vindicated. His sudden illness and critical condition have been the subject of conversation throughout the depart- ments to-day. Those who thought they knew him intimately said he wonid live to be cighty; but the threatened attack of Bright's disease was not gen- erally known. During his residence in Washington Mr. Ames lived very plainly and managed his daily expenses withacare that astonished those wno knew of his great weaith. He had few personal friends in this city, and those were of the same type as himself. General Sherman and the Indians, General Sherman, in his conversation with Sena- tor Casserly, referred to in yesterday's despatches, net only expressed his opinion that there need be no apprehension of @ general Indian war, but also said he had no fears of anything like a general outbreak even on the Pacific coast. Petition for Troops. The inhabitants of Shasta county, in the north- eastern part of California, have forwarded a numerously signed petition to the War Depart- ment, praying that a military post may be estab- lished at the headwaters of the Pitt River, where the presence of United States troops would not only intimidate the Indians prowling in that lo- cality, but would enable the whites to settle upon portions of the richest land on the Pacitic slope. ‘The request may be granted after the Modocs have been disposed of. Resignation of Governor Cooke. Governor Henry D. Cooke, of the District of Columbia, has informed the President of his pur- pose to resign his office in a few weeks, His snc- cessor will be Alexander R. Shepherd, at present Vice President of the Board of Public Works., Gov- ernor Cooke will leave for Europe, to be absent some, tne and wil}, probably, accompany his son, avho is to be married early in June, The Transit of Venas. The corps of professors at the Naval Observatory are hard at work on the preliminaries for a snccess- ful observation of the transit of Venus next year. Precisely what it is expected to accomplish by the Jong preparation and great expense attending this «scientific research was practically stated by one of vhe professors when he said:—“We expect to de termine within five hundred tuousand miles the distance of the earth from the sun, while now the warid does not know how far we are from Old Sol by four or five million miles.” The Aérial Crédit Mobilier Company a thousand years hence, perhaps, will bless the scientists of this age for having gained this important information for them. fuceess of the Treasury Publication, Tise work recently issued by the Secretary of the Treaacwy, entitied, “ Practical information concern- | ing the "ublic debt of the United States, with the are regtricted by their protectoN4 Wow exercising | wational Mbking jaws," lias reached the second edition, and contains @ statement of the bonded debt and the amount outstanding down to the 1st of April, a8 well as the numbers of the five- twenty bonds under the fourth or last call.

The special agents of the Treasury Department have recently reported a number of New York firms for alleged irregularities, and their cases are now undergoing investigation at the Treasury Department. Navy Department Proposals. The Navy Department will to-morrow issue pro- posals for supplying machinery for the eight sloops-of-war authorized to be built by the late Congress and for which $3,250,000 were appro- priated. The construction of three of them has been already commenced and the white oak for a fourth is being collected. Three of the sloops will be built of iron, two by private contract and the other probably by the Navy Department. The plans for seven of the vessels have been prepared and that for the eighth is nearly completed, Naval Order.
