" ENDYMION DEAD. Death of Lord Beaconsfield Last Night. He is Conscious to the Very! Last, The Career of This Brilliant Man. Forty-Two Years Leader of His Party. Srecial Dispatch to Tho Bes. Loxpox, April 19—1 a. m.—Lurd Beaconefield died very calmly as 6 o'clock this moraing. Three physi- clans were in attendance, beside Lrd Ruwton. Lord Beaconsfield was per- fectly comscious to tho last. [Bevjamin Disracli, Earl of Bea- consfieid, was born in London De- cembar 21, 1805, and was thersfore past his seventy sixth yaar. He wai of Jewich descent, his grandfsther, afier whom he was named, having sottled In Eogland io 1745. The name “Disraehi” was adopted by his ancestors, when in the fiftoenth cen- tury, they found refaze from the Spanish Ingalsition in the Vesetisn republic. What nsme they bore in Spain is not known. His father was an eminent litora- teur, aud the dead ear] was firat in- tended for the law. He remained in the study cf it for three yeare, after which he traveled on the contineat, and returning, at the age of twenty wrote *“Vivian Grey.” This won for bim immediste distinction. He then undertook a trip to the cast, and in six years after his first novel, or in 1831, sppeared “The Youag Duke,” followed next year by ‘‘Contarini Fleming.” Then came ‘“The Wen- drous Tale of Alroy” and “Ths Rise of lekander” in 1833; reveral p.litical psmphlets in 1834, *'A Vindication of the Eaglish Constitution” in 1635, “Ranoymede” and “Henrietta Tem- ple” in 1836, “Venetia” in 1837, “Count Alarcos” in 1839, ““Conings by” In 1844, *‘Sibyl” in 1845, “Ixion in Heaven” and ‘‘Taucred” in 1847, “Lothate” in 1870, and “Zndymion” 101880, s ficst novel was as great a3 the last, and the stories are con- structed on mach the same priuciple. This is his lilerary record. The period between ““Tancred” and ‘‘Lo- thair” — 23 voars—was the most ve portion of his political career. His political carcer began st High Wycombe, in Buckinghsmshire, in 1832, He appesred as a radical { political conspirators, Austria” and | | Russta would take stringent moasures | of precantions azainst passengess and | goods from the United States. | The Prince and Princes of Wales opened the first national tishery exhi- bition at Norwich to-day.

Samples of all edible and all ornamental fish were shown. The czar has cruntermanded the order forthe erection of additional fortresses on the German frontlers. A dispatch from Rome states that the rumor of the formation of & new cablnet composed of members of the right, is without foandation. An Athens dispatch says there is graat excitement in Greece over the quasi acceptence by the governient of Turkey's terms of eettlomeat of the boundary question, snd a roysl decree has been issned calling out the whole population cspabls of bearing arms.

A few days’ adjournment will probably follow the inaugaral epsech of M. Maguin, the French minister of finance. THE FEANCO TUNISIAN MUDDLE, Panis, April 19—1 —An_ Al giers dispetch says the situation there preseuts a serious sspect. Seven thousand Tunisian troops have started for the frontier. The report :hat the Khroumis bad submlited is declared to ba witheut foundatlon, aud is not believed here. The reid of the Khroumis, hitherto reported, is now resolved into an un- succescful attempt mado by them to backed by Hume and Bulwer. Daniel 0'Connell refused tindorse him. He anced 0'Con- nellas “a bloody traitor.” To thin 0'Councll afterwards replied that, for aught he knew, Disracli might bs “he true heir-at-law of the impeni- tent thiet who dlsd on the cross’ For this Disrasli challenged Motgan ©'Connall, but the challonge was not tler to O'Connell (Dantel) hs wrote: “We shall meot at Philippt, whero L will seiza tho opportunity of infl:oting castigation for the insults yon have lavished cn me.” Finally he was elected in 1837 to the first parliament of Quoen Vic- toria's reign. His first speech was & donuncistion of O'Connell, but it was a failore, and e was laughed down. Ha closed say- ing: “Ishall sit down now, but the time will come when you will hear me” He kept his word two years later. In 1839 he married the widow of Wyadham Lowi She brought him alarge fortune and In his decliving a peerage in 1868, sho was created Vis- countess Beaconstield.

Ceverasp, April 18—10 p. m.— Lut Wednesday » roporter of The Pouny Press calied on Edwin Cowles, of The Daily Leader, to inqalre about a mortgage supposed to have been given by The Leader. A bitter focl- Ing exists between the editora of these two papers, and Cowles tosk advan- tago of the reportor's presence alone, without witnesses, to charge that he had come on & bleckmsiling orrand, The next morning The Leader charged both the reporter and the proprietor of the rival paper with being black- mailors.

WASHINGTON. | Senators Still Wrangling Like Cats and Dogs, Meanwhile the Indian Bureau Headless. Many Agencies Vacant and Property Unprotected. President Garfleld Said to En- dorse the Deadlock, SENATE. Bpecial dispach to The ke, Wasaxaros, April 18.—Businets opened this morniug with the receipt of o communication from the secretary of war, eunswering senste irquiry concerning the testing mashinea for materlals in use in the department. Mr, Herris submitted the official report of R. P. Porter as censua stat- isticlan in corrcction of his corres- pondence to The North American Review, in which he classed Tennes- seo among the states that hed scalod and repudiated debts. The senater had deemed it unnecessary to correct the statement of that periodicsl, but since the same has been contradicted by the senators from Obio and Vir- ginia, he made the correction now to 83t Tennesses right before tho paople. After several Ineffectual dilatory motions Mr. Dawes made a speech In arralgnment of the democratic policy of fillibuatering to defeat the will of the majority. This led to a discussion of tae eit- uation on_the lsst night session, and the record was review.d to ehow that Mr. Dawes had himaelf refused to go into executive session. Mer. Dawes disclaimed any parallel between the cases, ainco there was no avowed purpose then by the minority to thwart the wili of the majerity. If the democrats relied on that pra- cedent for their present action, it Wi a weak foundation %o stand on. The discussion was participaled in by Mcsara. Davis, West Virginia, Saulsbury snd Burnside, with uuder- tone remarks now snd then by Conk- ling. Mr. Burnside said the question re- ferred to at the lest session wixa not a purtissn affair, sinca he could name democrats who also withheld their votes on that cceasion to assist the republicans in defecting cortain nom- inations. Mr. Beck made & spcech and in- formed the republicans that they would mot elect Riddlsberger Ser. goaut-at-srms, oven next Dscember. He hoped s>mo good republiean would nominate somd unioz soldier who wae a gentleman, and wouid bo fair with both eides. Mr. Dawes hoped the senator from Kontacky did not seek to imply di- ractly or indirectly that he had been fguilty of dishpmor in the matter. Mr, Bock ¢uid he shou'd say noth- ing to lead the senator from Massa- chasetts to a challenge on the floor. The senator would expross no opinion on the subject, but hoped to have s chance to do so in some canvass. Then he would answer when and how he pleased. Senator Browa spoke for a haif hour in defense of the claim that the constitution was framed, not so_much for the elevation of the majorities, as for the protection of the rights of the miooritiea. Mr. Blair replied to Mr. Brown at length, and in his remarks thanked God for the dead lock, 1f it would set- tle, even by the test of iateilectnal, morsl and physical endurance, the question of whother the majority should rule or not. Brown said that the mlinority wero right in opposing the mersurca that the people of the country condemned. Burneide eald that he did not be- lievo that the people condemned the messure. Mr. Brown sald that the republican press condememned it, and he pre- dicted that the number of condemna- tlons would Iucrease. Mr. Burnside denied the general condemuation, and stated that ap- provala of the courso wero increasing. At . m. Mr. McPherson sug- gested that Mr. Dawes, having run his show for 8 month, snd the galler- fea Leing no longer crowded, it would be brother showman's courtesy to move to edjourn, that thcso who wished might go to Barnum's show. Mr. Dawes replied that if thesena- tor from New Jersey thought the cir- cus was more attrective than his con— stituents’ interests, he was perfectly at liberty to go to it. 4The debato was renewed after this wnd was participated In by Logan, Hampton, Dawes und Brown. It finally drifted toward the question as to whether Mahono did not occupy the room next to the republican cau- cus and hold communication with the caucus. Mr. Dawos said that if such was the case he had not known it, but the senator from Virglnia had & porfect right to act as he plessed. He spoke a quarter of an hour in defense of Mr. Mashone, and at 4:50 moved to ad- joarn. The motion was carried at once. CAPITAL NOTES. Bpecial dispatctos to Tus Bes. Persons who originated the state- ment to the effect that the president 18 opposed to theaction of the repub- lican senators, and that he will inter- fera to break the deadlock, spoke en- tirely on_their own responsibility. The president has repeatedly exprees- ed torepublican senators his hosrty approval of what they are doing. The president expresses his opinion freely and says the position of the republi- can party in tho sevate admits of no change. The continuance of the deadlock leaves the Indian bureau in an uufor- tunate condition. There are several important agencies vacant,and a large amount of property is n the hands of peracns not under bonds. This arlaes out of the fact that an Indian agent does not hold until his successor takes charge, bat his official tenurs ces: with his term. The acting comm! sioner of Indian affalrs himself has but an appointment of chief clerk only, Trowbridge, who has been s ck for several months, belng still commis- sloner.
