What sort of q man is Senator Wigfall. of
Texas, anyhow Where did he get his no
tious Of parliamentary law, or has he any
notions of parliamentary law at all What
school was be brought up in. that forgot to
educate him in the commonest rudimcnts of
good bebavior,-or was be ever az school,
or ever educated in good behavior of any
kind ? Ore is strongly tempted to doubt,
in view of the seandalous and utterly unpro-
Foked affront he put upon the British Minis
ter, Lord Lyons, in the course of debate q
day or two since.
We quote the account of the outrage from
the reported proceedings
" Mr.. Wigfsll spoke in opposition to the
Homestead bill, stating that it was not a
Democratic measure, but q part OF The Re-
publican platform.
Mr.. Pugh inquired in what part of the
Republican platform he found is.
mr.. Wigfall. said il was announced as
sach by the embodiment of that party, now
sitting with Lord Lyons. Mr.. Seward and
the British Minister were conversing at this
moment on one of the sofas in the Senate
chamber. Lord Lyons looked up somewhat
surprised at being thus unceremoniously
called by name, and MIR. Wlgtal spoke OF
the Significance of the fact that the British
Minister aud the Senator from New York
were thus comforting together, when Lord
Lyons rose abruptly and left the chamber"
1t is not surprising that the Minister rose
abruptly and lett the chamber: but it is sur
prising that the presiding officer Of the Sem
ate did not at once administer to the Sem
ator from Texas the rebuke which his mis-
placed personalities so richly deserved.

Mr.. Crfttenden,s DecIinatfou.

At the festival given in Alexandria on the
goth inst. the birthday anniversary of the
immortal CLAY, Mr. CnITTENDEN tok occasion
to announce lis declination in advance of
the Presidential candidacy, in the following
felctiious terms. We copy from the National
L.teLligencT::
.'Mr. Crittenden then disclaimed all idea
and ali wish for the Presidency, signifying
his preference TO retire and resi- after long
period of public service. He did not under
rate the station, " hatever he might think of
some men who had held it. He had no hone
he could have il if he wanted il, and does
not want il If he could have it, He said
this out of no mock modesty; he had always
said ii. For himself, he had served out his
timr. and il was time TO retire. Mr. Clay,
however, was a man fit for the Presidency.
and he was long anxious 10 see him Presi-
dent. All we want now, is a proper sort of
Chief Magistrate. Not man of vacilation,
but man OF strong and good heart. who
cOuld sit here JoyOusly among his fellow
citizens tonight, and tomorrow go with
firm and iron hand and make strict execu-
tion of his duty and man who could not
do that should give place to stouter and
better man. 1t was Jackson's force of charac-
ter that gave him his popularity A proper
President must have physical as well as
moral courage; so as to meet a man who
should come from the North or the South
with threats upon his tongue and say to
him. "Sir, / am President A man who
has not the heart to do this is not fit for the
place. If the least fracture or crevice be in
him his weakness will be sure to be found
out. His administration will bee made 10
bend. But, on the other hand. ii he be
brave, and firm, aud honest. the Union will
be safe. / am. said Mr.. Crittenden, no can
t,ldate fer the Presidency"

The Union and AnierIcan asks us If we can
state. by authority, that Mr.. BELL endorses
the doctrine of Mr.. CLAY, of which we said
Monday '.no man who does not subscribe to
il. need expect to receive the Baltimore NOM
ination.'' When we desire to knew what
Mr.. Bells views are upon topics connected
with the slavery question, we go to The re-
cord of his public services. His public life
extended through periods in our political
history which gave him opportunities TO re-
cord his views upon the slavery question in
almost nll Of its phases. The Union and
.Am<rloaa has heretofore shown that il is not
entirely unfam liar with that record. Il has

Newstead bbey I'm the Market.

The New York journals print the adver-
tisement for the sale of the home of Byron
1t is to be sold without reserve at the auc-
ton mart, Bartholomew Lane, London, on
the 18Th day ofneXt June.
Newstead Abbay, ten miles from Noting
ham. and 100 from London, was founded by
Henry ii. in the latter part of the l2ib centu-
~. and was one of the church structures be
put up by way of expiating his murde! OF
Thomas Beckett. Irving says it is one of the
finest specimens in existence of those quaint
and romantic piles, half castle and half con-
lish olden times. 1t is in the heart of Sber-
wood Forest, the haunt OF Robin Hood aud
his band of outlaws.
When the 9Th Henry dissolved the Abbeys,
he gave Ngwstead to Sir John Byron, the
Little with the Great Beard" He made a
castle of it. When the poet Byron came
into possession of it, at eleven years old, it
was little better than a ruin. He said of it
in 1903:
Through thy bdttlemcnts, Newstead, the hollow
winds whistle,
Thou, the hail of my fathers, art gone to decay
Byron, DIsraeli in his Venetia, aud Irv-
ing have cOns,crated the spot in verse and
it were taken after it passed into the posses
ion of Col. Wiidman, one of the heroes OF
Waterloo, who had spent half million OF
dollars in restoring it to its primitive gran
deur. The whole estate contains 1926
acres, of which the park occupies s8l acres,
finely wooded. and well stocked with game
aud beautified by lakes. The mansion is in
perfect repair, as well as the old chapel. All
the old furniture is also TO be sold.

BALEM AGRICULTURAL, H%ORTICULTU-
RAJ AND MECHANICAL ASSOCIA.
TON,

The above named A ssociation held Its annual
injecting for the election Of officers on Saturday
last. The members presenter a majority OF
them evidently felt that it was highly improper
for a woman to have any hand in the management
Of the society; and the custom, which had existed
from its organization of having both women and
men upon it's Board. they considered more honor
cd in the breach than in the observance. So no
women were permitted to be Office bearers in the
Society.
The great attraction Of the exhibitions Of the
Association, has been tho horticultural depart
msnt, and this Exclusive of membership fees) has
been the source Of its revenue. At the Annual
Exhibition last fall, between $40 and $50 was paid
in premiums on flowers, while nearly $500 was
absorbed by premiums on Stock &c. The Horti-
culturalis:s felt-the majority Of whom were &o;
men-that it was scarcely an equitable division of
premiums, seeing it was mainly through the cul-
tivators Of flowers the money was raised.
The new Board will doubtless follow the exam
pie Of similar organizations which object TO the
management Of women. but find 1t desirable to ap-
point them on working committees. It is possible,
that under present circumstances, the women OF
Salem and vicinity will feel too much self respect
10 do the labor which may be thus assigned them.
II 10 also possible .hat they and others who are
especially interested in the promotion Of Horticul-
ture may think it desirable to organize a Society
having that for its especial object and if so, sue
cess TO them.
