Senator Voorhees opened talk with a suggestion to the effect 5. the wisest course lay in the abandonment of any effort to pass the free asaw material bills because of the evjdont determination of the Re- IgabJ icans to prevent action.

TOKIO, Dec. negotiations are proceeding. The minister of foreign affairs has handed to United States Minister Dun a counter-proposition for transmission to United States Minister Denby. Owing to the impenetrable secrecy surrounding the negotiations it is impossible at this stage to discover the exact nature of this counter-proposition, but it is supposed to differ from Minister Denby's original proposition mainly in respect to the amount of the in demnity demanded by Japan, and in the addition of certain rather onerous guar an tees for the faithful execution of China's pledges. It is rumored that one of these anteeti is tbe continuation of Japanese occupation of Port Arthur until the treaty conditions but it is apprehended that such a demand may involve great Britain, to which nation such occupation would be obnoxious.

The correspondent of tbe London Times telegraphs as follows from Hiro shima: "I have just returned from the eeat of war, and bad a conversation with Viscount Mutsa Munemitzu, the foreign minister, in regard to the misconduct of the Japanese at Port Arthur. 1 informed him that I had watched the Japanese army enter the town. The Chinese resisted to the last. 1 saw Chinese in plain clothes with firearms concealed on their person. I also found explosive bullets.

The Japanese reported that civilians fired upon them from the houses, and they therefore deemed it necessary to exterminate them. The Japanese were further excited by finding the mutilated remains of Japanese prisoners Some of these prisoners had been burned alive. I saw no resistance in the town during tbe next four days the Japanese pillaged the whole town and killed almost every man. Very few women or children were killed. Those who were killed were probably killed unintentionally "1 saw scores of Chinese prisoners pinioned, stripped and shot, hacked with knives, ripped open, disembowled and dismembered.

Many bodied were partly burned. "The foreign minister expressed himself as intensely surprised and grieved. Hitherto, be added, the Japanese army had been admired for its humanity and discipline. He was unwilling to believe it possible that they acted as reported, or to expres an opinion on the subject nntil a official report arrived. Meanwhile, he authorized me to sav that he was certain the government was sincerely determined to act on principles of humanity and civilization, and was firmly resolved to maintain the honor of Japan and refute Chinese slanders.

1 am satisfied that the government desires neither to cenceal the truth nor to permit cruelties." A Che Foo special says: "The Japanese fleet was seen off Wei-Hai-Wei, but has now disappeared. Wei-Hai-Wei is strongly defended. The Chinese fleet is IN NOTED GALLERIES. Continued from Firzt Page, ings which the poor humans had to endure only a few hundred yeafe ago, and at the same time to congratulate ourselves on the great advance that has been made in the interest of humanity and civilization. The public library is a large three-story building with grand marble stair-case and magnificent interior.

It contains 850,000 books and 22,000 manuscripts, besides 13,000 incunabula (books printed before year 1500). Here we saw the code of laws given by Alaric to the West Goths in 506, manuscripts of the new testament in the seventh and eighth centuries, first Latin bible 1450-55, first book printed in Munich in 1482, a stereotype plate of the year 1553, Luther's bible which contains his own and Melancthon's portraits (year 1561), a large collection of coins, literary curiosities of great value, etc. In a large glass case we saw letters and autographs, also original copies of music from'the very hands of the following named music composers: Haydn, Mozart, Beethoven, Wagner, Liszt, Weber, Schubert, Schulz, Donizette, and many Bothers. The last but not least of the interesting collection in these buildings of which we make mention, is the llumi- nated books; books made by the monks as far back as the year 800. The leather bindings of these books are splendid specimens of workmanship.

Some of the larger books measure about 12x16 inches and 5 inches in thickness. The pages of these books are made of parchment as thin as letter paper. The left page usually has an illustration representing passages of the scripture. These pictures are wonderful productions. All the different colors, especially the golden emblazonry, are as bright and fresh as though placed there but yesterday.

The right hand pages are filled with writings in verse, every letter so perfect, with the different colors so artistically and tastefully arranged, the verses measured with such accuracy, the colors so bright and fresh, all of which give evidence of the great skill, labor and patience, also the durability and excellence of the material used by the old churchmen. The books are nearly all bibles and prayer books, and are printed in the Latin German languages. It will be impossible for me in the short space of a letter to give the reader an idea of this beautiful book work, aud although the art of printing has made such great advancement in our present day, we cannot produce the equal of these elegant and perfect books. They may be equalled in the ages to come, covering Prof. W.

Near the end entrance is the monument of Emperor Louis, erected in 1G22, resting on the shoulders of four large knights, armed from head to foot, in bronze, and being the size of life. But the most splendid of the churches is the Basilica of St. Boniface. It is built in imitation of a Roman basilica of the sixth century. The front lias a portico of eight Corinthian columns, with three bronze doors.

The interior presents a grand sight. The floors are of inarble Mosaic work, and the roof of open timber work, the beams of which are richlv decorated and the ceiling between them studded with golden stars. The roof is supported by sixty-four columns of polished marble disposed in four rows. The frescoes on the walls are high perfections of the art, and illustrate the progress of Christianity in Germany, and the scenes in the life of St. Boniface.

A view through the length of the aisles, amidst the forest of pillars for a distance of 285 feet, aud up to the roof, which is eighty feet from the floor, with the firmament full of golden stars, is most pleasing. Tne sarcophagus of King Louis and his queen, Therese, is near the entrance and to the right. This church was finisned in 1850 and has all the beauty and freshness of modern workmanship upon an ancient model. St. Michael's church contains a splendid monument to Eugene Beauharnais by Thorwaldson, also the tombs of many kings and nobles.

The Lutheran church is a splendid modern building. The interior, although much larger than the church at Indiana, resembles it much in the arrangement of the pews, which face the entrance, the choir and pulpit being between the entrance doors. The Jewish synagogue was not open to tbe public but its external appearance is much like those seen in the other German cities. There are over forty places of divine worship in this city and a detailed description of these 'perfect caskets of art treasure'' will be impossible, but will say that the Germans certainly know how to decorate church interiors, and although in some cases the red color is several shades too bright, yet they manage to make the colors harmonize and the appearance grand.
