Wasn‘nm'ron. Dec. :5. —The president‘s
Vine-sage to the first congress of our second
century as the United Btatee will be unpre-
cedented in the long record of such commu-
nications. For the first time in our histofi
this mem'age toa new congress will discuss
but one question. The president will say
that in view -.of the paramount and even
vital importance tothe country of a reduc-

The message will be much shorter than
the public has been led to expect. It is en-
tirely in the president‘s handwriting. is full
of his characteristic expressions and is un.
derstood to he of his preparation. with. of
course. suggestions from his advisers in and
out of the cabinet. from the first word to the
last. It will not be sent to the public printer.
but will be kept at the “'hite House 'until
the proficient is notified that congress has
convened and “is ready to receive any‘ com-
munication that he may desire to make."
Engromad duplicate copies will then be
hurried to the senate and the house by the
hands of Private Secretary Pruden. and
then manifold copies will be given to the
press. Not for many years. certainly. have

The president will take radical ground
upon the tarifl question. He will recum-
mend that nearly all raw material to be
used in the manufactures shall be put upon
the free list. He will recommend specifically
that iron or“. tin plate. salt. lumber.coal
and wood shall be put upon the free list. He
i will not recommend that copper ores shall
be placed upon the free list. He will not
refer at any great length to the discussion
as to the reduction of internal rcvcnuedutieo.
but will make it clear that he altogether dis-
approves of that proposition. fie will refer
specifically to many articles upon which.
.there are now unduly high import duties. l
=and recommends proper reduction of the
taria upon them. 'i‘her‘e will be nothing in
his message akin to the horizontal reduction
scheme of the last Morrison bill. His rec.
ommendations are more in the line of the
bill offered by Abram 8. Hewitt in the
Fortyecventh congress.
The president‘l statistician estimates that _
i the reductions thus specifically recommended
will amount to about $30,000.000 per annum.
The president. in referring to the surplus.
will point out with great vigor the alnolute
the house. and it is generally expected that
' the diacumiou will be sufficiently long and
exhaustive to give all an opportunity to ex-

The reorganisation of committees will be
agreed upon. but not announced until the
chalets-elect are strorn in. The senate an-
ticipates an interesting day. There may be
some secret sessions for the purpose of re- ,‘
ferring‘ no. inations to committees during
the week. but no actual buainem will likely
be done till the qnvsLion of seating a number
of senators is disposed of. Yesterday a
meeting of the Republican members of the
committee on privileges and elections was
held to consider the. Turpie and one on two
other cure it may yet be decided to um
object to the swearing in of any of the Dem~
ooratic senators-elect. é
lnter— h is positively amertcd that an~
pie will be sworn in as senator from the
state of lndiana. There will be no objection
from the Republican senators. The certin.
onto of Mr. Frulkner.l of “'cat Virginia.
will be referred to Mr. Hoar} committee on
privileges and elections. This was the result i
of a secret conference of Republican senators .
at the house of John Sherman late last ‘
night. The meeting was called for 8 o‘clock,
and Senator l-‘rya‘s clerk was sent around to
deliver some of the invitations. Senators
, Edinunds. Evartsand Fry came early. but
Senator lloar did not. get over until late.

press from New York. and going at once to
the conference. without so much as stopping
to unpack his gripuck. The contested seats
in the senate and their relation to the organ.

decisive point. which was raised stones and
settled with unanimity. was that. the Iqality
of thc‘t‘rodentlaln was the only thing in quee- ;
tion. Mr. Turpin had his credentials. and
upon the face of them should be admitted.

instances in which much children are (physically
and mentally) utterly incapacitated for raruing
their livelihood. and in instances where it is made
clearly to apprmr that the conditions of mental

Lusnos. Dec. {mu—The Morning Port de-
clares that certain Parnellites recently urged
the l‘ouiniis to murder Lord liartingtou,
which they scornfully refused to do. Ameri-
can Fenians then undertook the task. arriv-
ing on the continent for that purpose a fort- 1
night ago. These. in concert with a few
lrish Fenians. made an arrangement by
which the rails on the road between Kings-
town and Dublin were to be removed in
order to wreck the train carrying Lord
Huntington and Mr. Goscheii last week. and
in the excitement shots were to be fir-rd into E
the carriage occupied by the English
visitors. 7
The scheme was abandoned when it became
known that Lord liurtiugtou and Mr.
Guschrn traveled by different trains. and
that the former drove straight to the reai~
deuce of Mr. Powers. in Leopardtuwn, thus
missing Dublin.
It was next arrangedtoattnck Mr. Powera‘
