WASHINGTON, Jan. 16th, 1876.
- 1 DEAR GazsrrEE-Thc Senate, after much
labor in committee and more hair-splitting
argument in open session, has settled the
mooted question of its right to at anytime
elect its President, pro temporc. The agita-
tion-arose froma consideration‘of tlle’possi-
' bility of the death of the President. The case
asit' -,now stands by vote of the Senate, is,
that the body may whenever it chooses, elect
its presiding officer. That when there is a
vacancy in the Vice-President's office from
any cause, such presiding' officer of the Sen-
ate is the ’defiwto Vice President, and should
._ the Prcsidentiul office be vacated this Presi—
dent pro tem. of the Senate becomes Presi-
dent-and ‘18 Senate may then forthwith elect
another to preside over‘ its own body.
The absorbing interest cf the week howev-
er, has been tllc Amnesty debate in the. House.
Indeed, no such brilliant struggle of parlia-
mentary tacticians has been witnessed since
'- the was, and no greater or more signal tri-
_um'ph has ever crowned any contestant than.
has been achieved by Mr. Blaine. At the
' outset of the debate it was feared lle_had'
made a mistake in drawing the rebel fire
down. upon the Republican side, but as the
debate progressed Mr. Blaine’s wisdom and
superior sagacity became fully apparent. He
knew «perfectly well that the bill was intro:
duced by Randall of Pennsylvania, ill a spirit
of the sheerest political demagogism. His
desire for alittle cheap self—aggrandizement be-'
ing all the more apparei'it from the fact of his
refusal to let his proposition‘go to Commit-
tee', but insisting upon'all‘ the undivided glory
of personally and individually pushing it
through.~ At ”the outset the Democracy
Were elated with the 'belief that a great parti-
-7.an~ advantage was to be gained by their‘side
as so general .was the willingness to grant uni-
versal amnesty 0d the Republican side, that .
by aidof the Republican votes the two-thirds
necessary ‘to carry. the measure would be so—
cured ', “mile the Democrats would have .all
' the glfii'y of the, act. In the attempt to gag
the minority: and force the measure through
without allowing the minority any chance to
discuss the measure, our opponents over-
reached themselves. ” This brought the adroi.t
and keen fence of parliamentary tactics into
play, and the Democracy could bring up no
match “for Mr. Blaine, and most' reluctantly
surrendered the floor to him for an hour.
This be improved in showing that Jefferson
Davis ought to beexcluded from such am-
nesty. "That he wasthe arch traitor—had not
only foreswom his allegiance to the Union,
but even now spurned to ask its clemency.
That he was personally responsible for the
horrors of Andersonville, at whose sickening
details of barbarity the civilized world stood
aghast. That‘ he had promoted the inhuman
official who executed the terrible and fatal
crueities upon so many of our poor captive
soldiers. To this scathing and terrible indict-
ment the Democracy saw the necessity of' of-
fering a rebuttal, so the ex-rebel, ex-confed-
crate Senator Hill, a very able - and adroit de-
bater, was selected to lead the defense. A
most unlucky selection. Hill ‘started out
with much lofty moderation, but warming up
and trlowing with the running fire of
Blaine, he finally maddened, lost his self-pos-
session, a'nd Igt his real rebel sentiments have
utterance. And when Blaine fastened upon
himthe authorshi'p or responsibility of the
“black flag" resolutions decreeing- death to
every union captive, offered by him in Con-
fedeyate Congress, Hill fairly boiled ever
with rage. ‘ His co-rebel associates were in a
frenzy all aboutihim, and the prudent Demo-
crats hada most comical yet exciting time
' “holding them down" to their seats. Hill

lowed;.~by, Prof. Seelye, in a five minutes
. speech futone of voice and earnestness of
menus sis-well as clearness of statement, he
reminds many of Senator Ferry's impressive
style of speech. He thought we .ought not to
except Jeff Davis, as his crifnes were for the
Judiciary and not the Legislative branch of
the Government 1 to try, if_they were to be
tried. His opinion, so favorable to Davis,
seemed to be acting as a salve to the lacerated
Democracy, and they were eagerly listening,
when with a reverent and profound impresv,
siveness he said, “If Davis of: guilty of the
cruelties proven to have been perpetrated at
Andersonv'ille, may God have mercy owln'm in
his Supneme hour." The effect of this im-
passioned utterance was so thrilling that a
pin could have been hear'd to drop for the mo-
ment. ,- ‘
Blaine returned to the contest again next
day in answer to Hill, and with thc‘mi'schiev-
ous intent plainly apparent, he took all justifi-
able and parliamentary means to stir up and
. draw out his adversaries. He read the con-
tradictory record on dapper little, Sammy.
Cox, till he made him furious with rage. He
got Sam Randall soiangered that he repeated“
ly lost his‘ temper and balance. At one time
he had half a dozenmcmbers on the floor who
had been inmates of Union prisons during the
war, and coolly asked all who had been thus
incarcerated,'to stand up and show them-
. selves. .- A few jumped to their feet when
Sam Randall ;arose and shouted “sit down,
you ’aren’t in school now. " Gen. Banks here
got to the front and endeavored to calm the
troubled waters. He sought to introduce an
am'eudment making it obligatory upon all
craving amnesty, to go before-a court ‘of rec-
~{;-9rd and take an oath of allegiance before it
"should be efl’ecti’e. Thus Davis would not
have a citizenship forced upon him, as by
Randall’s bill, against his consent. Bluine'
saw the parliamentary impossibility of this
being got in- at this stage and as the other side
would not permit discussion, he determined
to assert his rigllts'under the rules. Randall
nsoughtgo get it in by accepting Banks’
.ifiiéhdmfit. Blaine objected, and the Speak-
eryfig‘reluctantly confessed Blaine to be
, _ the situation. Then asif inspired
by' a strokclof genius, Randall moved his bill ‘
- and Banks’amqndme "to-Hie Judiciary Conl-
m'lttjemwitlia; ‘ forepo'rt' forthwith.

had been-convenedand the chairman had

‘ Maine,—also on the committee—asked that
hp, (Knott), would state to the House wheth-
er the Republicans on the committee had
.. agreed to.report or hot, cries of “Don’t you
do it i. No! no!" went up all over the Demo-
cratic side. Then Blaine asked to read a
short letter, without note or comment, but

table, but said Blaine “I now have the floor
for an hour, you can't make that motion.”_
Blaine proceeded to say that before the ,vote
was taken, he had asked permission to read a
letter, which was refused. He would now
read it. It was from Gov. Holden of North
Carolina; .was dated Jun. 12th, 1876. ‘In the
letter Gov. Holden says that he observes
there‘is a good deal of excitement over the
amnesty question and he calls attention to the
fact that in 1870, he, (Holden) was removed
from office by impeachment, because of his
efforts to prosecute. and put down the Ku
Klux, conspiracy. The Democratic Legisla-
ture of the State and its late'constitutional-
convention, to whom he had appealed, had
refused to remove his disabilities, and to-day
he was the only man ill No 'th Carolina wh'o
cannot'hold an office. '
- Mr. Blaine said he was debarred because of
a purely political prosecution, or ,rather per—
secution, and to-day it is proposed to remove
Gov. Ames, of Mississippi, by impeachment.
To—day there are two Unidn men,-—one in
North Carolina, who is actually disqualified,
and another in Mississippi, who it is proposed
Banks, poor Mr. Jefferson Davis is to be let
go free in this Centennial year, in order that
he may properly celebrate the jubilee year;
but he said, he desired now to offer his bill
again. -. .
Blaine thought these men should come
here with clean hands themselves before they
demanded amnesty for Jeff; Davis.‘ Don’t
eonle here with that request while you are
pol-scouting Union then for no crime, except
that they are republicans. Nevertheless he
"would again offer them his bill, and would
even yieldlto anyone onjthe other side to strike
out the clause excepting Jeff Davis, and Rau-
. and objected. , Agency-with such studied de-'
liberation, it is marvelous no Democrat saw
the pit intolwhieh Blaine was lending their
whole party—he offered them amnesty, and
agreed his side should make no objection to
striking out the exception of Davis, if they
would now accept it, en'maase; it was cou-_-
temptously' spurned. “Then,” said Blaine,
with eyes fairly sparkling with his triumph,
“I withdraw the offer and the motizm to re-
consider, and your measure is irrétrievably
lost by your own; not!" - .
When the consciousness of what they had
done, came to the democrats and they realized
how fiat Blaine had laid them out, and led
them to themselves defeat the very measure-
they we're struggling for, they seemed actually
paralyzed. Randall and Cox were as white as
ghosts, then the confederate members com:
l'ncnced to curse Randall, Cox, the Speaker,
themselves, and everybody else. ' While ex-
cited knots gathered around, seeking an ex-
planatiou. of how it was possible to have all
been thus thrown off their feet. Others
could’nt see why the action might not be re-
versed. Runners were started to coax sonic
colored brother, known to be favorable to am-
nesty, to get up and move another reconsid-
eration, but not a. darkey or any one else,
could be so induced. Said 9. disgusted col-
league to Sam. Randall——“Well, you’d better
give it up and let Jim Blaine run this side of
the House for us after this.” What added to
‘their utter and really painful ‘demoralization,
was the fact that all day Thursday and Fri-
day, telegrams and letters came pouring in
from friends at home, beseeching them to “stop

make them the least objectionable at both. ends
of the sectional latitudes. Sufiice it to say,
'if either Randall’s or Hill’s Speeches are'cir-
culated as campaign documents, it will be by
Republican. and not democratic hands. The
utter di‘scomfiture of Sam. Randall excites the
pity even of Republicans, while Blaine is im-
measurably congratulated.
The ball was opened by the democrats and
has been a terrible failure for thpm. Now let
us hope that the needed legislation of the
country may receive some lionest andfaithful
attention. President-making schemes had
better be dropped out of Congress, and after
this distressing lesson' the democracy will be
very fool-hardy if they repeat the attempt.
The National Republican Committee met
here last week and have settled upon Cincin-
nati as the place of holding our next'Presi-
dential Convention. There was quite a strug-
gle for Chicago, Philadelphia, New York and
Saratoga, but a combination, in the interests
of Senator Morton, it is said, carried the con-
vention to Porkopolis. A'bareful canvass,
professedly made to get at the preponderating
preferences as to candidates, gives the ticket
ovalaine, of Maine, for President, and Hayes,
of Ohio, for Vice President. Let us hope that
as good and strong a ticket as the above may
be given us me. Post-Master - General

The Centennial appropriation of one and a
half millions, "is expected to come up the first
thing at the beginning of the week. A Its fate
is quite 'problematieal. There is a large and
influential lobby at work for it, headed by
Gen. ‘Hawley; and it would seem rather shab-
by f'ér'iCongress to refuse Philadelphia’s ear-
nest plea, after so large a majority has sipped
its wine and devoured its baked meats so
greedily.~ '
That the House, ' so largely democratic,
should have adjoui'ned over last Saturday,
the 8th of January, without the slightest ref-
erence to “ Old Hickory" and the victory at
New Orleans, has excited wide surprise, and
much unfavorable comment amoug northern
democrats. But things arn’t run now-a-days
by the democracy, as they ‘f used to was
been.” Said a New Hampshire democrat,
who has been here looking for a House posi-
tion, “no one could have made me believe,
and I wouldn’t have believed it, if I had read
it in a democratic newspaper—that ournorlh-
ern democrats are just as abject now to the
southern fire-eaters as ever before the war.
But’I’ve been here and seen for myself that
they‘ are just as powerless as ever before
them.” There can be nofu‘rther disguising
'of the deterininatiOn of these ex-confederatcs
to regain by politics that supremacy .of polit-
ical power they lost by the'sword, and to do
this, they count: upon the abject submission
as well as alliance, of the northern democ-
racy. . ‘ .

Every body expected the “ Grand Choral

night, to be better thlin it was. Most of the
pieces were well chosen and many good voi-
ces could be heard, but the performance as a
whole showed poor management, and lack of
discipline. To our mind the ,cllorusses were
sung with too little expression and without
much appreciation of their meaning. While
the singers seemed to lack confidence in their
singers: Professor Salmson, while a man .of
great attainments in music, still seems to lack
the fact requisite in a leader of ~chorusses of

ment w are sure the children of Norwalk,
could make a showing in vmusic, of far
better results than-that of last Friday night.

”not withdraw from the local board of this

They give as a reason for withdrawing
from the National Board, that the peculiar
situation of insurance business in the large
cities of the country renders it impossible
for them to do business profitably in those
cities, at the present time. It seems that the

few moments before the meeting opened,
but his health would not pérmit of his re-
maining to take an active part in the proceed-

few words to his praise. Of all the many
able, active, eloquent men, men of great abil-
ities, who have during a half century past
taken their part in the temperance work here
in Norwalkand its vicinity, none have brought
to_themselvcs more honor than this man, who
was a temperanceman before the days of ‘the
Temperance Societies, and a worker in the
cause in after years at a time when it tried
men’s souls and left them exposed to all the
dangers to person and property which was
then often meted out to the opponents of the
liquor traffic. . Dubbed with the sobriquet of
“Plymouth Rock" by the liquor sellers in
derision, this name is now and has been for
~ hairy a year a title of honor.
The President‘notificd the ladies that the
meeting wasabout ready for their' services,

well filled with cake of various ,kinds, can-

son present. During this time the ladies and
gentlemen were invited and left to make ae-
quaintance with each other..
After disposing of the refreshments and
the few' minutes of conversation, the choir

were full of humor and pathos. Much was

the churches are against them. It may be so

being held every evening at the va 'ous
churches as announced in our last. ’filey
were largely attended and Were full of inter-
est. They were conducted by laymen; the
ministers being present, however, and par-
ticipating. Singing was a leading feature,
and the prayers and addresses were many and
brief, no. time being wasted. . The Sunday
evening meeting at the Baptist church was
crowded. The meetings proved so interest-
ing that it was decided to continue them du-
ring the present week as follows: Monday
evening at .the Congregational church;
Wednesday evening at the Baptist church;
Friday evening at the Methodist church.

By the dis ensation of an All-Wise Providence,
we arecalle upon to mourn the decease of a high-
ly esteemed friend and comrade, whose genial dis-
position, and winningways, combined with an in-
timate association of nearly seven years, has gain-
ed for him many warm friends among us, who
will ever cherish his memory.
Although living at a distance that rendered it
impossible for him to be with us at all our evening
meetings, he has always evinced a deep interest
.in the welfare and rosperity of our organization,
and in this, as we I as in his life. he has left an
exam le worthy of emulation.
An now, while in deep sorrow we mourn .his
untimely death, we look back with pleasure to the
many pleasant hours we. have spent together in
the past, and-our badge of mourning in which our
armory is draud, is_hut a slight ‘to of our es-
teem and resp t for his memory, out our regard
for his afllicted friends. . '
. To his friends, and especially to her who is thus
early bereft of a kind and loving husband, we ex-
tend our warmest sympathy. May the merciful
Ruler of all things comfort and tenderly soothe
the mourning ones, and give them the blessed us-
sumncc of a happy re-nnion. -

NOTICE.
TO the inhabitants of \Vinnipauk and vicinity.
l have taken into consideration the late Re
duction of Wages, made by some of the Manufac-
turors in the town of Norwalk. for which their
operatives have my heartfelt sympathy. I there-
fore have concluded to place the price of my
(,‘opds upon the basis of said reduction. My motto
is ‘ live and let live,” and if‘ under this motto I
cannot win. open your almshouse and I’ll walk in.
At my store will be found an assortment of the
Necessaries of Life. from a Box 0 Sardines to a
Barrel of Superior Floun. The subscriber will be
constantly on hand to take your orders, and S. A.
Grumman will deliver the Goods promptly. This
Grumman has one' peculiarity; he insists that 16
Ounces make one Pound and 4 Quarts one Gallon,
and declares that his hind is level on that point.
Thankful to the public {or patronage received for
the past ten years, I hope by prompt attention to
business to melit a share of it in the future.
