WASHINGTON, D. C..Apr112d, 1881.
{Dean Gunman: . . ,
iiiii‘TncL Senate National Debating Society.
,Jias—run-through the week with unabated
vi or__l_ind with unfiagging interest on th% part
o'f'ithc' people crowding floor corridors and
galleries. On Monday Senator Mahone de-
livered his carefully prepared speech. It
abOaudéd in sharp hits and slrorig points,
enema... by interruption or otherwise, he
WAS (livcltul from his Written pages, be
frequently evinced a very high order of
oratm'y. Whonhe came to the considera-
tion-01' the charges made against him and
his Virginia candidate for Sergeant-at-Arms,
by the bourbons on the democratic. side, his
statements and proofs of their inconsistency
was overwhelming. Sending to the clerk’s
desk t) be read from the International Re-
view the tabulated statements of the southern
states which had repudiated their debts, the
effect upon the Senators from those states
was. like showering hot ashes upon the
proverbial eels. One after another, would
rise to . explain or deny and flounder about
iii such apparent discomfiture as to excite
alternate mirth or pity. Little Jonas, the
Hebraic Senator from Louisiana, fairly
raved as his state’s repudiated debt was
rehearsed and on getting the floor charged
that the debt thus repudiated was created by
the Kellogg carpet-bag government and
therefore the people [democrats] of Louis-
iana would not recognize it. This brought
Senator Kellogg to his feet, who poured a
broadside 'of hot shot into the wicked and
murderous democracy of that state. He aston-
ished his listeners by an impromptu speech
of over two hours duration, filled with
minutest details of facts and statistics and
rising at times, to the loftiest heights of
eloquent invective. To the surprise of
everybody he clearly won the reputation of
being the most ready, forcible and eloquent
debator in the Senate. It was an overflow
of the long pent up vials of his wrath, which
prudence and the advice of friends, had
forced him to restrain and poor little Jonas,
and the bourbons of Louisiana, whom he
assayed to defend and champion, were left
ins. deplorably damaged condition. When
hecharged that this repudiation was effected
through a democratic ascendancy in the state,
brought about by terrorism, the most un—
blushing frauds, and the murder of men,
whose only,crime was loyalty to the union,
and that the history of t that state recorded
these crimes in lett’érs of blood, and in its
valleys and swamps where today thousands
of graves of murdered victims mutely
pleading for justice. the thrilling pathos of
oratory was sublimely grand. His exposure
of the democratic origin of the fraudulent
Louisiana Lottery, which as he charged, was
manipulated by the two arch rebels, Beau-
gard‘ ron'the one hand and Jubal Early on
the ether, to supply: their co-encmiesof
honest government with needful cash, was a
startling revelation and will repay the inno-
cents in Norwalk and everywhere else, who
have been deluded .into replenishing its
coffers, to read and-ponder well. His con-
cluding peroralion in the words of the text—
“thn he maketh inquisition for blood He
will not forget the cry of the humble,”—
was enunciated with a vehemence so lofty
and terrific, that for once at least, the scrip-
tures made a serious lodgment in the inner—
most rcccsses of the hearts of those hardened
bourbons. .. '
On Friday, a sort- of crisis in the debate
was reached. ._ The day opened by apreparcd
speech by the usually forcible and eloquent
Lamar. But- it was a hard task to make the
worse appear the better part, for of all states
in the Union, Mississippi had the worst
record. Its disgraceful and: inexcusable
repudiation is only exceeded by the barbarity.
of its untold political murders. A running
debate was kept up till after seven last
evening, when the Senate adjourned till
.Monday- Mississippi’s new Senator George,
' became restive at the record presentedof his
state and undertook to supplement his col-
league Lamar, when he was most mercifully
hunted down by Dawes. The fact was
brdugbt—‘out, that the bourbon Senator was
the chairman of the Democratic State Com-
mitteebf his state while the political riots
and murders of 1875 were horrifying the
civilized world and was himself the subject
of a Congressional Investigation. He was
made to admit that he sent a telegram im-
ploring a political friend to see to it that a
‘republican candidate in that canvass was not
assassinated‘as his friends knew was in con-
templation and that a reply came back to the
effect that the life of the republican had been
saved by the timely receipt of his dispatch.
I He excited smiles of derision as he went on
to state that the gentleman from whom the
reply purported to come, had recently in->
formed him that the use of-his name to the
dispatch was forgery. Senator McMil—
tan and Cameron of Wisconsin happened to
have been on that investigating cbmmittec
and their recollections of these facts brought
out, made it exceedingly uncomfortable for
Mr. George. . .
'SeniitOr Dun Cameron got off a crisp little”
speech'that put. the principles involved in the
present struggle in the Senate in their true
light. Senator Lalo having been drawn into
the debate delin-i‘cll his maiden elfort'in a
way that brought down the galleries in an
outburst of applause. Senator Dawes, who
has had charge of the debate on the Repub-
lican side, has filled his role of manager with
consummate tact and ability. His short re-
plies to assaults and counter assaults yester-
day, were of a masterly character, and in
power and eloquence equaled anything ever
‘ uttered by Webster.
The Democrats came out of yesterday’s
contests badly demoralized and damaged,
and were only too ready to adjourn. Whether
they will submit to letvthe majority rule in
the Senate the coming week can only be
conjectured. The feeling here is that the
enemy has everything to lose and our side
everything to gain if the Democrats insist
upon protracting the debate. The issues to
be involved in the fall elections are now so
interwoven in the Senate discussions that our
cause has nothing to fear from a full exposi-
tion of Republican principles. .

PENSIONS _
The new force of additional clerks given
the Pension and Surgeon General’s offices
will soon be put to "work, which will be good
news to the too long delayed soldier claim-
ants. As aline had to be drawu somewhere,
Commissioner Bently has ordered all claims
below the number of 300,000 to be first ad-
justed. Those having application pending
above that number will have to await the
disposal of all below, except in case of ex-
treme hardship, when the commissioner is
ready to order a special adjustment of such
cases.
CIVIL SERVICE REFORM.
Gov. Kirkwood, who succeeds the model
snioel service reformer as head of the Interior
Department,is brim full of what Mr. Lincoln
used to characterize as “sound .horse sense."
In the selection of the new pension clerks,
assigned to his department, he has adopted
the rule of appointing no clerk not well
recommended both as to good character and
adequate capabilities. He thereupon ap-
points the applicant with the understand—
ing that if he prove incapable,-incfilcient or
unworthy the trust he is to vacate his place
to another.

We were treated to an agreeable surprise
on Thursday, by a visit from H. J. Chapin,
Esq, who, occupies in summer, the Wood-
bury place in Norwalk. He was accompa-
nied by his young 'son Harry and his city
pastor Rev. Mr. McArthur. They returned
to New York this morning, so that master
Harry Chapin may enter Dr. Fitch’s school
on Monday.

A CAUOUS OF REPUBLICAN SENATORS,
has been called for 10 o’clock, Monday
morning, when the deadlock will be discuss-
ed. It is said the President advises the re-
publican Senators to act upon the nomina-
tions and then make their fight Over the
election of officers.
Vice-President Arthur left for New York,
last night. There are fresh rumors to-night
that Senator Conkling is putting on his war
paint. .

One of the four Regiments of the State is

we know no other Regiment has a better

proper efforts to secure the appointment.
May they succeed, say we.
The annual meeting of the Ladies‘ Asso-
ciation and Mission Bands of the First Con—
gmgational church, will be-held on Saturday
afternoon at the Lecture Room, at three
o’clock. The children’s meeting will be'
held’at two o’clock. The Lvsdies’ meeting at
the same place on Wednesday afternoon is for-
thc election of officers.
Jealousy brought several parties before
Judge Mead last week. Two Boston drum-
mers, who ought to have been drummed out
of town, two women, that most miserable of
all men, Charlton, and beer at his house, a
jealous husband or lover, a run through the
streets, one woman knocked down by her
lover, a chase by the police and capture of
the men and one woman, incarceration in the
lock-up, are all mixed up in one case, which
Was settled by the payment of fines, fees, etc.‘
‘ In the other case a poor colored man had
been greatly excited by the receipt of letters
charging his wife with being too intimate
with a certain man. Friday night he’saw his
wife wallking on the street with this individ-'
an], and a row ensued, during which the
husband is charged with striking his wife,
chasing her around the Congregational
church, firing a pistol, etc. The police ap-
peared on the scene and arrested both men,
finding a pistol in the possesion of each man.
They had a hearing on Saturday. but as the
wife failed to appear against her husband the
case was adjourned.

The Newtown Min-dot.
A young man named H. W. Wright of
South Egremon‘t, Mass, was murdered in
Newton, Conn.,last week and his body thrown
into the Rubber Pond, ' where it was found
on Thursday last. It is thought that he was
murdered by the Chain Gang, 3 set of lawless
boys of that place, with whom he had been
in a row but a short time before. Several of
them are now under arrest.

The only nominations before the Senate ‘Norwalk church on Tuesday and Wednesday
demanding immediate action are thoSe of the
judiciary, especially that of the new member
of the fireme court. The delay of the re-
mainder works no public injury and gives the
President more ample time‘ to consider his
future selections. A “great ado” is, by the
hardest kind of straining on the part of
mischief makers, forced on the public atten-
tion over the J udgc Robertson nomination.
That selection was no doubt particularly
distasteful to Senator Conkling, because of
the Judge's successful belt at Chicago and
the consequent defeat of the Grant nomina-
tion, but a kccncr sting is said to have at-
tached to it, from the supposition that Sec.
Blaine had inspired it. It now transpires
that the only New York appointment that
Mr. Blaine has had a word to‘ say about was
that belonginging to his own dcpartment.thc
appointment of Mr. Morton as Minister to
France, which Mr. Blaine urged knowing
.him to be the especial favorite of Mr. Conky
ling. Judge Robertson’s nomipation was'
made in the interest of peace and justice,
and-if confirmed, as it is still believed he

Senators over their Democratic associates in,
political shrewdness and ability, and in that
common sense which is always the. melt
effective weapon in politics. At the opening
of the session the almost exact equilibrium
of parties had placed the control. of the Sen-
ate in the vote of one senotor,Mshone, of
Virginia, a Democrat originally, but elected
against the bitter opposition of the'.Virginia
Democrats. It wns’plain that, if he should
fall into active co—operation with the Demo-
crats in the Senate, that they would control
‘ the organization of that body and the con-
firmation of the President’s notifications. To
gain time for'that most effective ally of the
Republican party, Senator Hill, the debate,
was began upon the reorganization, and be-
Voorhees had succeeded in antagonizing
Mahone and driving him irreparably into the
ranks of their opponents. “For this relief,
much thanks 1” The matter having thus been
adjusted to the common satisfaction of Hill,
Voorhees, Mahone, and the Republicans, the
debate might as well end to-morrow as next
week.
Again, the debate has shown emphatically
that the Republicans are a art ,one, united,
.and indivisible, and that mocrats are
no party, but a combination of a half-dozen
factions united only by anxious desire for
oflces.‘ We hear a great (tool (in Democratic
papers) of Republican factions, but even
Democrats know well that, in any given
emergencies, there would be no difierence
whatever in the action or feelings of Conk—
ling, Sherman, Blaine, or Garfield; all are
moor one harmonious whole, always
moving in the some direction. On the other
hand, where are we to look for Democracy ?
Are we to look for it (to quote Mahone) in-
the Hard Money Démocracy of Delaware.
the Soft Money Democracy of Indiana, the
Shot Gun Democracy of Mississippi, the Re-
pudiating Democracy of Tennessee, the
Morey'Democracy of New York, 0r where
are we to get at it? The fact is that, like
Mrs. Harris, “there ain’t no such pusson."
It may be that the Republicans in the Sen-
ate will conclude to fight the debate outio
the end, any-lace the, eminent- Democrats
therc have kicked over their milk pail as
usual, the Republicans may leave further de-
bate until December. In either event our
readers may be certain of one thing: their
Senators will do nothing, say nothing, and
agree to nothing that shall not urge forward
the party’s great desideratum—"a free ballot
and a fair count inthe South."

William H. Duncan, an old and esteemed
citizen, died at his residence, South Nor-
walk, on Friday morning last. Mr. Duncan
came here from Stamford with Mr. James
S. Waterbury, about the year 1848. They
went into the blacksmith business, under the
firm name of Waterbury 85 Duncan in the
old shop near foot of Mill Hill and continued
together for about eighteen years, when the
firm dissolved, Deacon Waterbury removing
to Michigan and Mr. Duncan to'Soutb Nor-
walk where he went into the iron fence
business, a branch which had been developed
and worked for;awbile by the old firm. Mr.
Duncan was a prominent member of the let
-M. E. church, of Butler Lodge I. O. of 0.
F.,' andIKabaosa Encampment. ,He was sick
but a few days, and died from typhoid fever
the result of a cold taken about a week since.
His funeral was held yesterday afternoon,
the Odd Fellows Lodges attending in abody.
Morris Stephenson well known to the trav-
eling public as well as to our elder residents,
when his brother David kept the Nor-walk
Hotel, but latterly residing in Danbury, died
in that place last week aged '70 years. His
remains were brought here and interred in
the family burial plot in our Union Ceme-
tery, on Thursday last.
The Danbury News tells an exciting story
of highway robbery in Bethe], last Tuesday
night. C. Hoyt, after chung his store,
started to walk home with his brother
Horace. They were stopped by a man who
held a pistol in one hand and a club in the
other, and ordered them to “throw up their
hands." When the hands went up he tied
Horace’s hands and searched his pockets;
then he served Mr. Hoyt the same way,
obtaining altogether some .880 in cash, a
watch, etc. He told them his name was
Black Andy, the mad highwayman, and then
sent them on with the threat that if they
gave an alarm, he would catch and kill them.
So far no trace has been found of the rob—
ber. .

On Sunday morning about 2 o'clock, they

their sleeping room. They snatched the
children from their beds, and succeeded in
making good their escape. All their fumi-

The Hartford correspondent of the Sprtng-

New York, New Haven and Hartford
road, and says that it has the lowest fares in
the state, makes the best time, pays a very
large part of the state taxes, while the poor
roads beg off year after year, has a double
track over its entire length, is safe and free
from accidents and delays, and is all in all a
better roadithen can be built for years to
come. '

William E. Chandler.
The rumors from Washington indicate that
Hon. William E. Chandler's nomination as
Solicitor-General gives such umbrage to At-
torney General MacVeagh that the latter
gentleman contemplates resigninz his seat in
the Cabinet in case Mr. Chandler is confirmed.
It is to be hoped this will not prevent Mr.
Chandler‘s confirmation; and President Gar-
field certainly need not be greatly dismayed
if Mr. McVeagh should carry out his threat
of retirement. There would be an easy and
very generally acceptable way out of the dif-
ficulty by the appointment of Mr. Chandler
to the Attorney—Generalsbip, and the tender
of the subordinate post to some other well-
qualified gentleman. Chandler would cer—-
tainly be in all respects equally and in some
respects better fitted for the post of Attorney-
General than Mr. MacVeagb. 'As a lawyer
his reputation is high among lawyers, and
deservedly so. Naturally a keen, penetrating,
and far—seeing man, his legal acumen has
made him the trusted confcrce of many of
the foremost lawyers of the day in cases of
the most grave and delicate nature. He is
not a forensic lawyer, and as his triumphs
have not been as an advocate, they have, no
doubt, attracted less attention from the gen—
eral public than those of the brilliant ontors
of the bar. But in consultations in chambers
and 'at the side of the ablest advocates there
are few faces more familiar, few minds more
clear, and few judgments more reliable and
relied upon than those of William E.Chandler
of New Hampshire. With him as Attorney-
Gcneral, in case M. MacVeagh feels bound
to retire, the sturdy Republican sentiment of
the North might safe] rest assured that the
full length and strengt of the arm of Feder-
al law would be exerted in 1882 to protect
the right of suffrage in every Southern State.
His stalwartism is, indeed, the whole ”head
and front of his offending." Personally
there is not a more uprightscrupulously faith
ml. and entirely honest man in American
politics. His public abilities are conceeded
to be of the first order and his private char-
acter is above reproach. A dangerous, be-
cause a skillful, political opponent, he never
theleas enjoys the ppmonal respect of foes
and friends alike. . MacVecgh will not
increase the public regard for himself. by op-
ng himself to so excellent a nomination
for Solicitor-General. And the President
w' either Weaken his Cabinet nor offend
an tion of‘public opinion worthy of do.
ferencoif he should insist on retaining Mr.
Chandler’s services either in the second or
the first place—Boston Traveller.
