. TheRepublican
sido of the "American House of Peers"
has submitted a, proposition to their
Dornicantio brethren for a two week's
Mese of Congross, to begin immediately.
Tho proposition MS first submitted to
Senator Beek, chairman of the Dane. -
°ratio caucus, who roplied ho had not the
authority to decide, bnt would submit
the matter to 1110 associates. Mr. Beck
strongly. opposed it, however, and he
found 1110 associates of 1)10 same opinion,
and the proposition -was formally declin-
ed on the bosh; that the appropriation
bills should all be passed without any un•
necessary delay. Neither house can
adjourn for metro than three days at a
time without tho assent and joint action
0( 1110 other. The majority of tho Senate
could not therefor° carry coot their plan
withont Ibo co-operation of the minority,
and tho plan for the toms adjournment
accordingly failed. Tho reason for the
recess proposition is that time is wanted
to prepare the Sonate tariff bill. This
has beau found a greater task than was
anticipated. While it is stated in some
qua/tors that the proposal has tended to
oonfirm tho opinion of some perinme that
the plan to report and pass a senate tariff
hill will yet bo abandoned. Senator Alli-
son and Senator Joues, of Nevada, ass.:rt

provides for a vessel of a littlo over 1,000
tons burden, built on the monitor princi-
ple, with water ballast so arranged rts to
admit of the vessels being sunk, when
ready for action, to n point which will

dynamite pneumatic gun, projecting
above the stern, and n Minch mortar,
mounted in an olevated platie toward -bhp

estimated cost of tho vonool is 51,500,000.
