Thursday Morning, March eoM, 1884.

In making room in this number OF our
paper for the eloquent speeches OF Mes
srs. Webster and Clay, delivered in the
U. S. Senate on the 9TH inst. we are
compelled to content ourselves with
very brief outline Of the proceedings OF
Congress during the past week. In do
ing so we do not deprive our readers OF
any Congre ssional matter Of material in
terest, while we are enabled to present
them with something Of more than ordi-
nary interest. 1t is said by those who
were on the floor of the Senate during
the recital Of Mr.. Clay's mastery APP
peal to the Vice. President, that the
effect which it produced, was
powerful beyond all description. We
commend to our patrons the repeated Pc
rusal Of these most able and interesting
speeches.

| In Great Britain the Dssenters are making
vigorous efforts to obtain from Pallament COM
plete EQUALITY of civic condition. They are so
numerous, and so advantageously clfcumstah-
ced in every respect, that having large por-
ton of the Press and most OF the ministry oh
their side thew must succeed ere long. Inc
seats of the Bishops, in the House OF Lords are
seriously threatened. Such journals as the Lon
don Times and Morning Chronicle hold TINS
language.-Ndt. Odz.
&C The Bishops met with a severe rub in the
House of Commons last night in house of
nearly 200 membership minority being treble
i'm number that of last year This will be a
timely lesson to the Spiritual Peers to set their
house in order, and not to NEEDLE with secular
questions. 1.-THE minority proceeds in the same
annual increase, the Bishops may expect to be
relieved from their obnoxious situation and du-
ties as Legislators in the course of the present
Parliament. We believe that public opinion is
tolerably made up on the expectancy of their
retirement from the Upper House. We are sure
that their hungry f1ocks would reap the benefit
of their exclusive attention to their pastoral du-
ties 1t will be observed, that the friends of the
Bishops were dumb; no doubt conceiving that
as nothing good could be said of them, the wis
est course was to say nothing."- Chronicle.
When the time shall arrive, we shall, OF
course, be ready to state our already declared
wishes, that the Protestant Bishops ofths coun-
to assign our reasons for divesting them OF that
invidious political character, whence has sprung
so large a portion ofthe unfriendly spirit which
prevails throughout the country with regard to
them In his diocess Bishop may do incaicu-
liable good-as politician in the House Of
Lords he is wholly misplaced, and his venera-
bic character and pastoral functions are altoge-

we again say, let their lordships GO to their re-
spective palaces-let them, with liberal reve-
nues, and, with undiverted piety, dispense hos
ptality, charity, and spiritual instruction among
their Reverend Brethren and their no longer

Cholera-This fell disease has, it seems, again
made its appearance in the south west-in Geor-

Georgia, under date of April "a, mentions that
the Cholera had appeared within 35 miles ofthat

stroyed eight persons in the family of Mr.. F. G.
Gibson. Some strongly marked cases had also

The London Court Journal, of the 9Th ult
contains an article entitled-UemOraRda and
Recolections relative TO america. Its spirit and
tenor may be judged of by the following conpL.
nnentary introduction!
"The temper and manner of the Americans
are not suited to those of our countrymen: they
are Harrow minded, and low bred; they shew
no generosity, nor boldness of mind, nor that
patriotic spirit of love to the country which is
natural to us, who are indigenous to a SOIL and
descended from long lines of ancestors, from
which we have inherited national attachment
and family pride. They trace no such ances.
try. Every man is for himself They are colo
nsts. All emigrated from this country; some
even as convicts; adventuiers-all uncOnnected
with each other. Few, if any, are in the rank
Of gentlemen, or have had liberal or classical
education. All religions are tolerated among
them, from which a liberal turn Of mind might
be expected; but, on the contrary, they are
pedantic and caustic. Most of them are Pres
byterians or Quakers-sy severe, and enthusi-
astic, yet mostly selfnterested. They have
general apprehension that they are despised by
this country, and they are sensible Of having
been oppressed and insulted; for which they re.
tain an implacable resentment"!!.

Mr.. Clay, in replying to Mr.. Grundy in his
late speech in the Senate, made the following al
fusion to the old Federal party
"The Senator amuses himself with the divi.
sions which he describes TO exist in the ranks
Of the opposition, and anticipates the want OF
cooperation which they may occasion. There
is one philosophic conclusion which he might
! have drawn from that fact favorable to the no.
nesty Of the opposition, and that is, that nothing
| but a deep and solemn sense OF the dangers
which are impending over the country, could
! have united in one common cause, persons VINO
entertain such a diversity Of views as to the
proper administration Of public affairs. The
Senator assigns to the opposition, the Federal
party. OF all the political parties that have eX.
listed in this country, have before said, what
believe, that, in the main, they have been no.
nest and patriotic. That may be as truly al.
frmed of the Federal party as of any other
The causes which produced the ancient diyi
sions of the people into Federal and RepubI'
can parties, have principally, if not wholly, long
since ceased TO operate, and it is ungenerouSand
unjust to endeavor to preserve or affX the de-
nomination for party purposes. The Federal
party was indeed, supposed to lean, more than
their opponents did, to a strong and energetic
Executive; and, in that respect, the Adminslra-
ton party Of the present day may be pronounc
ed to be more Federal than their opponents

party has divided itself between the parties Of

The Washington Globe says of the President,
"Having accomplished his great object" he will
calmly await the day, when his conduct will APP
pear to all his countrymen, as not only constitu-
tional and lawful, but wise and eXpedent"
This reminds us of story we have heard of
an lnkeeper in Hamburg, who was very deSir-
Gus to procure custom for his house. and who
gave out that gentlemen making bets of dinners
could at once be furnished with them at his Ho"
tel and that he would calmly wait for payment
until the bet was decided. Two wags accord
ingly made bet-one Of them asserting and
wagering dinner with the other, that Whenev-
er ST. Mchaers church steeple should fall, it
would fall to the northward; and the other con-
tending and betting the dinner, that when that
event should happen, the steepe would fall to
the southwark They accordingly repaired to
the Hotel, told the landlord they had made a
bet, and ordered dinner for twenty persons,
for which according to his advertised terms,
they would pay when the bet was decided: the
dinner was served up and eaten, but the pay day
never came, for ST. MichaePs church steepe
stands, and is likely to stand. SO it will be we
think with public opinion upon the subject of
the late invasion of the treasury-so that if the
President cala1sly awaits the day, when the peo-
pie of the United States shall change their SEN
timents upon this violent outrage committed up
on the constitution and laws of the United States,
he will, like the Hamburg tavern-keeper, have
