Russell, a very wealthy widow, to death with a brick. He then cut her throat in three places with a case knife. Prescott lost $50,000 some time since in the dry goods business, which brought on insanity. He had been gradually breaking up mentally for five years. Realizing his mental condition, he asked to be confined in the Danvers asylum, and tl apers for his committal were made out. To finish the preliminaries Mrs, Prescott visited Boston this morning.

The bill providing for the sale of certain Kickapoo Indian lands in Kan- sas passed, The house went into committee of tl bill, Mr. Tarner speaking against and Mr. Dingley in favor. Mr. ownlhm;ld (I‘llll.) followed in o] ition to the bill, saying it was tll:mmh of a decision of that des- potic ruler in party existence, ‘‘King Caucus.” He referred to the ch: man of the ways and means commit- tee a8 having abandoned his princi- ples regarding taxation at caucus dic- tation, to which Mr. Kelley replied when he could persuade the party to agree with him he agreed with the him. Shipherd did nearly all the talking. He complained gitte.rly of Blaine’s attitude toward him and his clams and related the British admiral story, ascribing the story to Blaine. Commenting on the story, witness remarked the story was quite natural, he thought, as he had heard of an instance where Blaine was understood to have writ- ten his personal views on the n of an official dispatch. W(hmr & one. Mr, Hurlbut produced a letter from his brother, dated Lima, Decem- ber 20th, in which he says: ‘‘The Chilean papers are full of that infer- nal Shipherd and his partners. They haye been kicked out of this lezation and out of the state depaitment, but he is an indefatigablejuuisance. Ihope Randall will call for all pa- arty, but that the tariff commission Bill was never even talked of in the caucus, but was the creation of a member of the democratic party and reported in a democratic congress. .

He believed a sub- committee of the ways and means committee, consisting of Messrs, Kelley, Durnell, Morrison, Carlisle, Kasson and Tucker, could do better than this proposed commission, He referred to the biographical sketches of the members pnblingad in the Con- gressional Record and furnished by themselves, as showing that they were no ‘‘spring chickens,” He referred to the commissions as unfortunate creations on th& t of the people of this country ming given to the country an administra- tion only remarkable for two things: “Its weak vetoes and cold water at state dinners.” He felt sorry for the American people whose ways and means committees came forward and blubberingly says: ‘‘We can't tackle this subject ourselves, but we have got & gang of fellows outside whe can.

At an adjourned meeting of the city council, held on the 11th inst., it was ordained that all licenses hereafter issued to scll ale, beer, or wine, or to operate a beer or wine saloon in this place, shall be taxed one thousand dol- larseach, irrespective of the time when the same shall commence or termi- nate, provided that after the first a.x months of each municipal year a license for the remaining half year or fraction thereof may be taxed not less than five hundred dollars, within the discretion of the mayor. The ordi- nance also provides that a bond shall be given to the city by the person to whom such license is granted, for & sum not exceeding threethousand nor less than one thousand, conditioned for the due observance of the ordi- nance in relation to such license, and for the payment of all fines and costs consequent upon the violation thereof. The ordinance is essentially pro- courcil) of any license granted there- under, in case the licensee shall be convicted in any court ot law of a vio- lation of any of the ordinance of the town in relation to sach license. The price heretofore charged for a license was $300. These rigorous measures are believed to be in full accord with the wishes of a majority of the better class of people of this community.
