Correspondence Of ~. Bal,imOr. Patriot.

WARRINGTON, APRIL 4, 1894.
The party have triumphed to-day in the
House by ssren votes, as you will see in the
vote Tor carrying the main question-three
seats not hIied (the Speaker not yosibg) and
strfesH absentees. A majority Of these alb
sentees is on our aide. II is late in the
evening-and have not time TO enter into
particulars,-but hope that such Of the
oPposition as have deserted their posts and
have been oh, without carrying q supporter
OF the administration with them, will be abIe
TO settle with their consciences and with their
constituents.
The object in sitting debate, and in forcing
the question to-day, is to operate upon the cit y
OF New York, and TO tell our friends the
" that the question - settled" Settled! En-
tertain no such an idea. The question il a.
Tar as ever from being settled. The palace
troops dare not wait for the vote Of n. York.
and trembling they have shut the doors Of de-
pate. Settied the question never will be, till
inc president lets go the purse settled i,
never can be, till We settle into despotism.
and become slaves. Mr. wilde, whose
Resolution the Previous Question cut off
will az soon a. possible submit Il Again,-and
mus reopen the question, and produce a.
mueh debate as ever. Let New York spe ak
Tor the country, and not for the Office holders
and tho empire city Will soon unsettle all
that it has settled here. Tho Cambtslengs
and Nanderpoeis dare not await the result Of
that election.
Many Jackson man has sealed his fate To-
day as a politician. Many have given a vol.
which will cost them their political existence
-snd send them home 90 sleep the sIeep o,
iorgeuulness. The sysi were their own re-
qniem-and an outraged public awaits an op-
PoHuni'y to express their indignation.
