having stated that Mrs. Salisbury
appealed personally to Senators net
10 press the resolution expeIIing her
husband, promising 60 take him home
to Delaware, the New York Times
says:
mo man could resist such an APP
peal 1t is Impossible to think OF
such an incident without emotion.
Mr. Salisbury is man ofvery mark
ed abilities, -one of the ablest, most
cogent aud effective speakers in the
Senate. Of fno personal appearance,
tall, erect, dark complexion, with
piercing black eyes aud jet black hair,
courtly and impressive in his man
ner, and of noble and generous i'm
pulses. But for the disease which
affiicts and oylrmasters him, he would
be one Of the most influential public
men of the Senate and the country
Yet he is saved from ignominious
expulsion only by the sympathy felt
for his devoted wife. Another SeDa>
tor, whose term has just expired, %
man Of clear intellect, finished culture
and fascinating manners but cursed
by the same affection, was tolerated
in the Senate only from similar
motive. One Of the most touching
ST hts to be seen in Washington dur~
ing the session was the presence in
the gallery Of bis wife and daughter,
waiting night after night till long past
midnight anxious and distressed, to
accompany nim the their home. Tt
may be said to his credit that what.
ever he may have been to the rest Of
the world, he was never nYthing but
respectful, obedient and tender to
them

Leaders in the new Conservative
party in Louisiana are making a
strong attempt to induce the Presi.
dent to remove General Sheridan aud
appoint General Rousseau in his place
aud Johnson is seriously contemplate
ing the policy Of the change. Loui-
siana men are urging it upon the
ground that, with military com
mander more lenient than Sheridan
aud one who would not keep as close
a watch upon registration, political
matters may be so arranged as to
secure the State to the Conservatives.
On the Presidents part it may be said
that it required the most earnest
solicitation to secure Sheridan's APP
pointment, and that subsequently his
removal was supposed IN high official
circles to be fixed, and that now the
President is STRONGLY disposed to car
ry his opposition TO him to the ex-

awkward position, for his political

This, he said, however, was not the
question, for it was one the Court
