SENATE CHAMBER. March IL 1874


Whereas, complaints hav ebeen made, and
suspicious expressed, because the Hon. Ed
ward Everett, one of the Senators from Massa-
chusetts, did not stand up in defence Of the
memorial of the clergy, which he presented;
we cheerfully certify, that to our knowledge,
he was physically unable to do so. We are
confident that he desired to do SO, and that his
opinions were favorable to the remonstrance,
and that he was prevented from doing so,
solely by reasons of defect in his ack-bone,
which on many occasions, prevents his stand
ing up, as he would otherwise desire to do
His defect is Of chronic character, and has
long been well known by his friends, and to
considerable extent, by the public. We add,
that this certificate is entirely unsolicited by
Mr.. Everett, and is volunteered by us, from a
sense of justice to him. w. H. SEWARD,

On the other hand it must be confessed that
Gov. Everett has been peculiarly unfortunate
in bis relations to the Nebraska question. His
first speech upon the subject was below the
tone of his constituents. There was mista-
ken tenderness i'll it. In his positions he broke
loose from the South, but did not cast anchor
within the real heart of the North. His votes
we were about to say they were still more
unfortunate-but votes we do not remember
that he has given upon the main question at
all. In one stage or another,-by some sacri-
fee or other, and such as earnest seekers of an
opportunity almost never fail to make-we
think he owed such vote to the state he had
honored so highly, and which had in return
confded to him her most honorable trust
Begging pardon for so sinister suggestion,
(and not SO sinister after all, } we cannot help
thinking that an emphatic NAY, clean on the
record, opposite the name of EDWARD EVERETT,
against tbs engrossment, or against the final
passage, was due to the WING PARTY OF MAS
sAcHUsETTs, that had chosen him to place
for which other and not unworthy men were
rival candidates with him at the time of his
election.

The Senate has been the theatre of scene
worthy of the times when Scottish Covetant-
ers were insulted by brutal judges in the Toll
booth, or when English Puritans stood in awe
of the Star Chamber. 1t occurred in this wise.
Mr.. Everett presented the petition, signed by
three thousand aud fifty clergymea of New
England.
No sooner had this manly document been
read than Douglas, the traitor arose, and
poured forth a frothy and insulting trade
against the New England clergy, in the true
Claverhouse spirit. This was bad enough
But alas for the honor of New England, when
Mr.. Douglas had finished his senseless har-
angue, Edward Everett arose, not in the Dig
nifty of noble manhood, to rebukc this inso-
lent malgner of the clergy-the brave hearted
old Houston, God bless him, did that--but
forgetful alike of what was due to his own
high character, and to the honor of old Mas
sachussetts, he offered an apology for having
presented the horrible thing to their highness-

INQUEST TWENTY Six YEARS AFTER DEATH.
A most extraordinary occurrence has hap.
pened within the last few days at Redtruth, in
Cornwall. AS long ago as the year 1928, d
miner, named Williams, was working in Ped
nandree mine near Redtruth, when he, fell to.
gether with his brother, into the shaft. His
brother, after falling about twelve feet, con-
trived to stop his further descent, but the de-
ceased fell further down, and quantity of
rubbish toppled down upon him. Though
every exertion to recover the body was made
for a period of two months, it could not be
found, and the shaft was then closed over. In
this state it remained until April last, when a
company was formed to resume the working OF

a couple, of foolish fellows having a lot OF knot
ty saw logs, butts Of trees, &c. which they could
not chop, saw nor split apart, got them up in
pile, on Thursday evening last, at the corner of
Twelfth and Main streets, bored hole in the
largest log, filled it with power, and blew up
the whole lot with an explosion whichfcaused
the splinters to fly in all directions. One
chunk passed through wagon standing on Main
street killing two men who were standing on the
sidewalk, one Of whom was much bruised and
his clothes nearly torn from him. The same
splinter also knocked q hole 10 the door Of q
house, and another fragment demolisheda win

that the mortality among physicians has been

recollection Of reporting so many deaths with.

thus deceased were men of distinction and in
fuence, and had lived to ripe old age; while
others were cuedown in early life, when the

ALLEeoRIcAL.-A traveller setting out on q
long journey, was assailed on the road by ours,
..nastifTs, and half grown puppies which came
out of the kennels to bark at him as he passed
along. He often disnounted from his horse to
drive them back with stones and sticks, iuto
their hiding places. This operation was re-.
peated every day, and sometimes as often as
twenty times day. The consequence was
that more than half the travellers time was con.
sumed in chasing these dog puppies. At last he
was overtaken by neighbor, who was going
the same road, but had set out long time af-
ter him. The latter traveller was very much
surprised to find the other no further on his
journey; and on hearing the reason exclaimed
-"Alas is it possible that you have lost your
time and wasted your strength in this idle oc.
cupations These animals have beset me all
along the road, but have saved my time and
labor in taking no notice Of their barking,
while you have lost yours in resentiug insults
which do you no harm and chastising dogs
and puppies, whose manners You can never
mend"
