ALBANY, 9Th Feb. 1888
Abijah Mann distinguished himself today by repe-
ttion of his dsgracefu committee conduct In Congress-
He insulted the Speaker and the House IN the most
manner. The House being about 10 nominate
person for the Office of Treasurer Abyah rose and
began sing dolefu dtty the cruelty OF the Wings
turning out Abraham Keyser. He praised the in
cumbent in the fulsome manner-warned the
House If they turned him out that the people would vi
SIT them with vengeance-told the members that Mr.
Keyser bound up in the hearts of the electors OF
this Statcand defed the Wings to carry out the doc
trine that 10 the victor belonged the spois lie was
called To order several times there was no question
before the House. He grew more insulting and called
those who interered with him order. The Speaker
called him order. He would obey but rise immedi
aey and appeal from the decision of the char to the
House on the question OF order. Thus he kept the
House at bay for than hour RE said that his
remarks were predatory to motion. Under this pro-
fession he allowed to go He then said that he
wished 10 explain why ne should nominate Mr. Key
But again he wandered from the subject insulting
the House hundred times At last the Speaker pro-
nounced the whole proceeding of order and babe
him take his He did So but wound up by protest
ing against the doings of the House The object OF the
party is TO create excitement in favor oil keyser-
Henceforth his name will figure at the radical meetings
as one obnoxious To the Wings and poor heyser will
be set down as a prosecuted patriot and democrat
Manns great fault leader is that he cannot control
his passions. Ii he behaved as he went on today
upon the Investigating Committee last winter, do
wonder the conduct of Wise and Peyten.
They justified in all they did To sum up all in
lew WORDS, hann possesses soIlic
sagacy, but his unbounded passions and bearhke I'M
couthness render useless the former traits of character
He pliancy and yielding disposition An eppo-
sition leader make Mann dig his ditch and force
him to leap into il Of his accord.
Orvlle Holley is Surveyor General and G.. H. Barton
Treasurer of the State having been duly chosen this
day.
The anti sub.treasury resolutions did up to-
day. Col. Young still has the floor in the Senate
the small note bill.
Silas M. Stiwells project of a Land Bank is before
the publ e. Ii is enough the temper ef saint to
the follies and ignorance of men. Mr. Stwel has
flown in the face of all experience with his wonder
working scheme He appears to be wholly Ignorant OF
the first principles Of Banking. refer him TO the 9TH
chapter of John Laws treatise Banking. to see the
detailed operations Of his plan. 1t is like pretty
machine without impelling power. Nothing would
please Mr.. BiCdle more than to this state running
mad after real estate Bank. While we would be in
pursuit of such phantom fox like, the Chesnu street
fnancier would be pushing the keystone state SO far
ahead, that 100 years would suffice for us to catch
up with her.
send you copies of Verplancks and Patersens bills
for general bank law. Lay them before your readers
One perusal will satisfy any reasonable man of their
uility. Pass either OF these bills and We should
have a better cnrreTcy indeed
1t the radicals wise sey will insist the passage
of geaera bank law. 1t weud be the signal for the
destruction of the wing party verplanck and Patterson
have degned to give the joint stock bank
system OF England but have concocted outre
TONS like the work of madmen than of wise legis
ators. But if the people general bank law, let
them have il, they will the their SEN
ses and ask for repeal of it.
