he was postponed to December. This
prevents the President from making any
other nomination. A majority of the
Sens ate believe that Mr.. Capron is quite
as incompetent to Ill the place as is
New ton, and insist that when change
is made one OF the best agriculturists
in the country should have it.
The subject of the final adjournment
is sure to raise breeze when discussed
in the Senate. 1t was up again on Tues
day on resolution to extend the SEES
sion, when Mr.. Chandler of Michigan
made a somewhat severe attack upon
Mr.. Fesseudeu of Maine, for something
said by the latter in the secret session.
He charged that Mr.. Fessenden had
given the President notice that he would
vote to confirm his Democratic nominees
If he found that he could not get Repuo
licans. Mr.. Fessenden denied the charge
18th Indignation. Messrs. Howe OF
lscopsin, Cameron Of Pennsylvania
nd other Senators did not believe 1t
would make any difference when the
Souate adjourned, If it continued the
session a month there would still be va
cant offices. The session was extended
to o'clock p. m. of Thursday, but 1t Is
the general opinion that another extern
sion will be taken, as the President Is
very slow in making new nominations.
The United States Marshal for the
Supreme Court served the subpGnas, on
Tuesday, issued by the court in the
Georgia case against Gen. Grant and
Secretary Stanton. One will be served
on Gen. Pope in few days. The return
to the summons is fixed for December
l, which has postponed the entire ques-
tlon till that time. This result is quite
unexpected to the counsel in the case,
who expected to argue it next week
before the full bench. The Mississippi
| bill will be amended so as to conform to
that of Georgia, and the motion to file
! it will be argued on Thursday next. A
similar decision to that rendered in the
Georgia application is anticipated by the
lawyers employed by Mississippi. II
may be stated, in this connection, that
Gov. Murphy of Arkansas telegraphed
to the counsel who were moving in be-
half of that State, that he did not ap
prove of the proceeding, and should moi
be made party to it. The matter wa:
therefore abandoned, so far as that STATE
Is concerned. Gov. Jenkins of Georgia
is prevented from being at Washington
to attend to his injunction petition by
injuries received from railroad acci
dent which lay him up for the present

A sTATR PRISON ScENE.-On Fast Day
the Governor of New Hampshire visited
the State Prison at Concord, and after
viewing the building, requested the
warden to bring certain prisoner into
the room. In a short time Mr.. Mayo
and the man entered, and took their
position in the middle of the company.
The convict was, of course, astonished
to find himself ushered into large
gathering, in which were some twenty
ladies, including the wife Of his Excel
lency. The Governor rose, took the
man by the hand, and spoke substan-
TALLY as follows.
MY friend, about twelve months ago
you were committed to this prison for
five years for the alleged crime of pass
ing counterfeit money. Soon after your
incarceration, circumstances came to
light tending to prove that, although a
counterfeit bill passed through your
hands, it was used by you in an entirely
innocent manner, and that you were I'M
Willingly the dupe OF sCoundrel, who
fled the State and has never been ar
rested. Immediately ordered full in
vestigation of your case, and l am
thoroughly convinced that you are an
innocent man, serving out an unjust
sentence. The Constitution Of the State
gives me the power to open the doors OF
this prison and in the lawful exercise
of that power now grant you full
and free pardon. This very hour the
warden will relieve you Of a convict's
uniform and give you citizens drese
You have been a good man within these
walls, and while and my friends here
live we will. everywhere bear testimony
that your Imprisonment leaves no stain
upon your character. A dear wife and
loving sister have prayed for your re-
lease, and l now restore you to theil
hands, to be once more their comfort
and support.
As the Governor closed his remarks
the poor man, overjoyed with happiness
trembled in every limb, and his face we'
wet with tears. Not a person in the au
dience looked unmoved upon this scene
All present congratulated the prisone
upon his just release, and wished him {
| happy and prosperous future.
