w WASHINGTON, Oct Ill.
We had a rich treat in the House
Of Representatives to-day. Mr. Og-
den Hoffman made 4 speech against
the Sub Treasury Bill, which has
elevated him by general consen to the
very front rank among those most
distinguished for debating power and
eloquence. Some of his passages
possessed beauty and splendor ne
yer exceeded in either house of Con-
gress. In manner he is exceedingly
earnest, animated, and energetic.
and inthe more impassioned parts UNI
commonly rapid in his utterance.
The reporters find more difficulty in
reporting his remarks than those of
any other celebrated speaker. One
ofthe most efficient of them assured
me to-day that tazzled and enchant-
ed by the splendor ofhis imagery he
threw down his pen several times so
that he might attend with all his fac
ulties to the thong hts and sentiments
and brilliant creations of fancy which
were thrown out in such profusion,
In the course of his reasoning a.
gainst the bill he exposed with inn
mense power the gross and fragrant
inconsistency Of the Speaker of the
House Mr.. Polk and of Mr. Cambre-
leng in relation to it. He read pass
ages from speeches ofboth. made
in 1885 expressing in the most deci-1
'ded terms their opposition to this
very Sub-Treasury Scheme! Cam
