How they Talked after the Election

We have felt all along that the election of a
| man who endorsed Jno. Sherman for Speaker.
would bo hailed and glorifcd as decided Black
Republican triumph Tho amiability Of thosa
who seemed willing to construo the election Of
Pennington as the success of Il conservative man,
will find themselves contributing their mito to
aid the morale of the Republican strength. The
man who could deliberately sustain and vote per-
sistently through forty ballots for .Jno. Sherman.
is in no wise, one whit better than Sherman him
self, and is as iustlyobnoxious to Southern men.
with Southern feolinS,.
We clip from the States & Union the particu-
lars of the midnight orgies in Washington. over
the election of Pennington:
The Wolves Howl to the Moon
On last night band Of screnaders, whom we
will not dignity by any cpithet, even Of scorn or
contempt, visited the lodgings Of the ncwly-ecc-
ted Speaker to do him homage and honor Ad-
mittcd into the spacious halls of the hotel. they
began their wild jubilee with one of our grandest
and nohlest national airs. Never, perhaps, did
that great song awaken less pure and simple
hearted patriotism. On the contrary. it seemed
hut to excite the hlackest sentiments Of coward
ice and treason. II seemed but to inllmn the
spirit Of insolent bravado and intoxicated eyulta
ton. When we write down the men who poured
out this vilo current upon the pure air, we shall
blot our paper with two names which combine
within themselves deeper invective than it ia
in our mower to command John Sherman and
John Hickman responded to the sacred notes OF
our own, honored ''llail Columbia"
We pass the remarks Of the aged beneficiary.
We wish he had uttered such words from diff
fercnt platform. We wish the reverence we
cherish for white hairs were capable of inspiring
US with alike respect for their sincerity. We
come at once to the first, real speech
The key-note Of John Sherman was that of
malice and levity. He gloried in the work of
the dav The Union was saved he said, and cot
ton was still nt a fair market price, and he hoped
it would be higher negro property was still val
ua'le. hut he hopcd Mqt would be lower. A Re-
