This obiection I as it is said, been satisfactorily met by the discovery by the engineers of a easy ascent for the grade over the hill, and that prospective bi item of in-creased cost having been thus overcome, the parties directly interested are c themselves upon that fact, as well as upon the assurance o! the road being built over the newly select-ed route.

Fifteen hun-dred to two thousand people are di.ven away from their homes. Goods in ware houses and cellars suffered much dam-age. The river is a vast ariKfV torrent, spreading over the low lands. Nearly all tne lumber yards are overflowed. At police head quarters mny inquiries for shelter are made. Reports from all points on the river show a rising every- - where, and the fullness of the Ohio and Mississippi will prevent the Cumberland from running down as rapily as it other-wise would. The river continues to rise at a quart-er of an inch an hour, but it is expected it will begin to recede this evening, as reports received from points show the high water is slowly falling.

Senator lugalls is making t'ne effort of his life loger Mr. Harrison snubbed by the repulilican Senate, and to et even with an old personal enemy at the same time by ffettin;; the nuinmaiiou of Represen- - tativu Anderson, of Kansas, to lie Con- - to Kjivpt wilh Mr. Harrison sent to the Senate with that of Senator lilair to he minister to China, rejected, or "h'jii ti;i",w Licit would keep Ander-son out of the office until next December. Nsi It an extra session is to be avoided j 1 7 Congress will have to crowd more busi-- 1 ness into these three last days than it has ever done before, for everything is in a very much mixed and backward condition at this wiitinj;, end it would ,' certainly cause 110 surprise here should several of the regular appropriation lulls tail to et through. There would have been no probability of fading to pass the appropriation bill if tbe republicans in the House had not voted to spend two (lays on the Shipping i' bills, and if they were not constantly try-in- r to leave the appropriation bills for th; purpose of pushing through some thing to help the decrepit old republican party. Representative Cannon had the j jv sublime impudence to make the threat i j . that unless the democrats would vote for I ? the supension of the rules so as to allow t ' 1 the majority to pass such legislation as i . ( it might see fit, the majority would lay ! . aside the appropriation bills and proceed under the rules to dispose of such busi- - ' ness an it might believe ought to be v, : passed. The shipping bill in which the lobby ij was mostly interested, the one granting V - a tonnage subsidy to all American ves-- - sels engaged in trade with loreign coun-trie- s, wak dclealed in the House, and V i ' ' the least objectionable bill, that author-- i l iug tbe gianting of suosidie to stein U'r " "VeSenCtifthe guise of payments for carrying United Slates mail, was passed j,' with an amendment reducing the amount . (; to be paid In principle one of these , bills is just as ohjectionadle as the other but I Call the one ttiat passe. the least V- objectionable, because it will require a I'- g'eat deal less money; nobody could tell " how much the other one would have tak n had it become a law. Through the macuiations of that en- - lobbyist, ex Senator Malione, hope of a new Government Iterptisingoffice in place ol the no' used as such, lias it is much to be re i - gretted that two such eminent demo- - ' crals as Senators G rrtnaii and Butler it should have allowed themselves to be l used as instruments for the accomplish ment of Mahone's purpose. Finding it- - impossible to sell to the Government as j a site for the new printing office? for I jFaso.ooo.a piece of land entirely unsuit- - ; ed lor the puipose, Malione, through B his pard Senator Cameron, the man who couldn't see any haini in speculating i.i silver wnile a bill affecting us value was ? pending in the Senate, set to wuik to I prevent the site recommended by the committee being purchased by the pies-- . cut Congress. The scheme was well worked. Waiting until the closing rush tif the session bewail, when members aie I'. glad to postpone anything, a resolution was offered to lav the whole matier aside ; until next December, and it was adopted i This is ail tight lor Mali ne,but it"s rath er tough on the in re than tw thout-an- d men and women who sacrifice their health and endangar their lives in the old building The question naturally arises: do these democratic Senatois f propose trying to help Malione sell his ground to Uncle Sam through the dem-ocratic Congress? I cannot believe it. Mr. Harrison now has a whack at the Direct tax bill that Mr. Cleveland vetoed, ; the senate having agreed to the House H amendment. It is safe to say that he will not follow the example of Mr. Cleve land in that respect. . . A bill allowing an annual pension of 52,500 to the widow ot Admiral Porter is also in Mr. Harrison's hands. j Oi.ce nine U.S. Treasurer Huston i has resigned, and this time it is for ( keeps He reluses to be interviewed, 5 but Iris close peiscnal friends Jonot hes- - itate to say that it is Mr. Huston's inteu- - to return to Indiana and put in the licks in his political blacksmith ition against Mr lienjiman Harrison, by refusing to make him Secretary I of the Treasury, furnished the last stiaw I which broke tne camel's back, which j had been for some time str ained to its " utniest because of social slights. Mr. j Harrison figures now on counteracting i Mr. Huston's opposition by the support j of Mr. J. A. Lenicke, Treasurer of Indiana (alireasmau man) who will be bis (accessor a Treasurer, j Senator-eiec- t Kyle, of South Dakota, is a daily visitor at the Capitol.
