nevertheless, repeat his warning. The affairs of the
country were being mismanaged and ruined by men 0'
the class ho bad spoken of before. The people of Eng'
land would not tolerate such a state of things. The
men who controlled the affairs of England—Gladstone
and Disraeli—were not lawyers, they were men of wider,
culture, with the instincts of statesmen, fit to contra,
the destinies of a great nation. He had felt deeply
interested in the success of the Republican 10,,,'
in the past, and had contributed to it, he thOuP”
as much in character, and a good deal more in tong
than other Senators ; indeed, lie believed that
contribution of the latter kind had been -greater tbAu
those of all the other Senators combined. When the
war broke upon the people without warning, and found
them unprepared, he had been among the first to rush
the support of the Government; but now there wee
great danger pending, and ho felt it his duty to warn the
people of it. Ile read a long account of the character
and career of the notorious Judge Jeffreys and of the
condition of England in his time, which, he said, was veri
the condition of this country at the present time. Fifer
) ears ago America had come out of a great civil $4.31.
Since that time the great work of Congress had hero'
or should have been, to restore harmony and prospgr!
to the country. how had that work been call"'
on ? Is there, he asked, peace at the South ? Is there
?
prosperity or contentment among the people there,
Are they not rather in a state of chronic revolution'
Is there justice in the land? Who that is a rel.
man dare attack ono that is rich in any court in thief
land ? Is there protection for the rights or liberties 0
the citizen in thin boasted land of freedom ? The imp.
gration to this country had fallen off 30,000 during the I°
year, and would continue to fall off, because the industd
and agriculture of the country were so prostrated at the
West that immigrants could not find remunerative ems
ployment, and if they went to farm in the West thei
could not sell their products for enough to supply theft
with the necessaries of life. Whenever any ouein ,
Senate, or elsewhere, asked the reason of the degree'
sion of our commerce and maniffetures, he was Ore
to be met with the answer that it was owing to the
fact that we were rot paying specie ; but the real rer
son was that the legislation and...the administration °f
the Government were so shaped as to encourage OP!:
tal to speculate upon every industrial occup6tie,"
in the country. If this course was to be continuo'
in less than five years there would be a clamour Or
a tariff to keep out foreign cotton. Rut great as Weg
the mismanagement of our national affairs iu every de'
partment, the greatest abuses were in our financial polid' I
That policy was directed and controlled by the bankerei
They no doubt gave as good advice as they could ;
bu
experience had always shown that dealers in moues
knew little or nothing about the relations of money
other occupations and interests. The bearing of all thw
upon the pending bill was this:—lf the legislators a the
country had done their own work so badly, how CO'
they dare to assume the powers and duties of the Biel
tive also ? He had wished for and aided in the election
General Grant to the Presidency, because he believed that
he (President Grant) had not been contaminated by tb:
politicians, and had the capacity required to see throug
and defeat their machinations. He had listened to the
inaugural address with intense interest, and had bean
pleased by the President's expression of his purpose 10 t,
independent in the discharge of his official duties; hu
when he heard the passage asserting the sacredness of the
public debt, he had gone away disheartened and sorror
ful, because it had shown him that the canker that P 5
sessed the American body politic had got possession as
the President also. Still he was not without hope.
hoped that the President would yet discover the
error into which had advisors had led him, and would tur"
away from this policy as from a charnel-house. With 7,6
interesting biographical sketch of himself, Mr. Sprak
finished his speech."
The vote followed, showing 37 Senators for the bills
as amended, against 15, all the minority being De'
mocrats, including the Republican Senators Fessely
den, Grimes, ill‘Donald, Ross, Sprague, and Waal
and the bill was passed. Its defeat in the House Nay
due principally to Benjamin Butler, who canvassed
earnestly, while strongly opposed by Bingb3ll;
a member also of the Judiciary Committee, to Whict
the bill was referred ; but it was asserted
Butler and Logan had been, and were, supported'
the President. Butler had been twitted by Oil;
ham for joining the Democrats, but that part,
went with Bingham in voting Butler down, when
he endeavoured to get his motion carried under
it
the previ9us question, and this enabled him itio
effect to retort. Judge Noah Davis made uj
maiden speech as a member of the House, 31",
arguing for absolute repeal. The fight was Or
fined to the Republican party, the Democrats 04;
inn little, though voting in a body for natleftt
motion, by which the House refused to cooc"
in the Senate's amendment. As our readers loc'if:
the majority for the original bill was 99 against 70'
but on a Joint Committee of Conference being 4;
pointed, it was reported back substantially as tll3
adopted by the Senate, and passed by both Hous,
of Congress thus modified ; the news received tbis
week being that the President had signed it, and
it had therefore become law.

Senator Nye's reply iu defence of the lavilel,l
which Senator Sprague termed a personal attli.e':
greatly amused the galleries, and was the comi0.1:1
cident of the debate, setting aside the most combf
all Senator Sprague's .'peech. He alluded to Al';
Sprague as the Boanerges from Rhode Island. "93
it never enter the Senator's mind that the danger,hoo to a Republic lies in the direction of knowing
much. Danger lies in the direction of not kno 0:8
enough. And again," said Senator Nye, "I ll°.er,
the honourable Senator's forebodings will en/
The lawyers will not hurt him. If he does not
to use them they will not charge any fees, and If ye
does they will not charge him enough to mAe iC
felt by him."

A Deputy of the Cortes, now sitting in Madidf
_AO
has called for papers relating to the introduction into S 9
of goods for commerce by the Hon. John P. Hale, un
his diplomatic franchise as American Minister, They
probably no good feeling towards Mr. Hale in that
