They were men who had wives and little

A few words concerning the general
situation. Radical papers all admit that
in Tennessee their party is at its lowest
ebb. Why is it9 They have ruined the
credit of the State; they have squandered
its revenue; they have stolen its school
fund; they have elevated demagogues to
power, and placed upon the bench petit
foggers whose legal abilities were beneath
contempt; they have caused negroes to
swarm in idleness in the court rooms and
galleries of the Statehouse; they have fed
them in public souphouses to vote at the
municipal elections; they have kept them
in crowds at the doors of the registering
offices, and have kept from the polls not
only Rebels, bat Union men, Union Colo
nels, Brigadier Generals, grey bearded
Union men-all-indiscrimi in their
well grounded fear that nobody but mean
negro or thief could be trusted to vote
the Radical ticket. At last the Union

mitted to the polls, by judicial decree IS
suing from Radical supreme court. The
people have had presented to them a new

Narvaez and Gonzalez Bravo, 1 speak
with full knowledge of the subject.
This Prince, just as deceitful as the
Jesuitism of his ancestors, whose infa-
nous conduct is SO clearly attested by
French history, would have been pro-
claimed King in the waters of Cadiz had
not one of my illustrious comrades in the
navy refused to sully his uniform, and re-
pudiated with as much energy as dignity
the greatest treason witnessed by modern
times. The mercenaries say that Mont
pensier is perfect being, a rainbow Of
peace and god of goodness If SO, let
all the blood that has been shed and that
which perhaps win yet be spilled until his
total disappearance, fall upon his pre-
tenders head This, indeed, is a bad
way to raise up again crown that has
fallen to earth
The liberalism of Montpensier, inspired
by the feverish ambition of reigning, is
so interested that it merits the terrible
lesson which the justice of indignant ma
tons from time to time inflicts. / am a
Spaniard, and animated by the noble feel
ings of my country. Every time that in
the course of my navigation passed by
Gibraltar said to myself, "When shall
we be completely Spanish 2" And every
time l stand before the august monument
of May 2 exclaim, 'EWhen shall we be
altogether Spaniards 2" In 1908, when
my noble father stimulated the valiant
people of Madrid to revolt, our country
was prey to an armed invasion; this day
it is the hypocritical, Jesuitical and cor
rupting invasion of the Orleanists in our
land, so wearied, so harrassed, so desolated
by the grape shot of its governments.
Fortunately, the glorious shades of Daviz
and Velarde and of the martyrs of Coeral
have not yet disappeared, but are still
present to the mind of every good Span
lard.
Montpensier represents the nucleus Of
the Orleanist conspiracy against the en-
-peror Napoleon Ill, in which certain
Spaniards of note have been engaged.

raters understand well that in case of q
fall of the imperial dynasty it would not

HARD SECRETARY FISH.

TheNew York Sun RadicaD expresses
a hope that there is truth in the rumor of
a reconstruction of Grants cabinet. The
Sun wants Mr.. Fish out. 1t says:
'EMr. Fish is an honest man. He is al
SO a gentleman. His natural disposition is
patriotic. He would not intentionally
dishonor his country. But he is not com
petent to direct the policy of a great gov
eminent in difficult crisis. 1t would be
as proper to choose Gen. Ben. Butler for
Archbishop of Canterbury as to select
Hamilton Fish for Secretary of State.
However, Gen. Grant did 1t; and the re-
suit is what we see. The administration
is weak, cowardly, anti-American, truck
ling to Spain and bullying Hayti, Civ
ing moral support to the Brazilian crusade
for the extension of slavery in South
America, and with no positive foreign
policy anywhere except the jobbing,
swindling treaty for the annexation of San
Domingo. Such lack of brains, such
sterility of ideas, such total absence OF
manly spirit, such indifference to Ameri-
can principles, was never seen before IN
the government of the United States. AND
for all this Mr.. Fish is justly held re
| spOnsible.

CONGRESSIONAL.



WASHINGTON, March 91.-Mr Drake pre-
scented the credentials of Messrs. Morgan
Hamilton and j. w. Flanagan, az Senators
elect from Texas, the former for the tern
ending March 4, 1871, and the latter end
ing March 4, 1875. He asked that the gen
tlemen be sworn into Office. The creden.
tials were read at the request of Mr.. Thur.
man, and the Senators took the oath and
seats on the Republican side of the Senate.
The House joint resolution of sympathy
and respect for the memory of Gen.
Thomas passed.
James River to the Ohio.
Mr.. Wiley, offered resolution directing
an enquiry, by the Committee on Com
merce, into the expediency of causing a
survey and examination, under direction OF
the War Department, of line of water
communication between Live Water, on
James River, and Ohio river, at the mouth
of the Great Kanawha, by way of James
and Kanawha rivers and tributaries, with a
view to ascertaining the practicability and
utility of such water communication as
may be required for the transportation of
military supplies in time of war, and to
meet the commercial necessities of the
Mississippi Valley, with liberty to report
by bill or otherwise Adopted.
Memphis TO Kansas City.
Mr. Rice introduceda bill granting lands
to the Kansas City and Memphis Railroad
Company.
AmeS.
At o'clock the case of Gen. Ames, as
Senator elect from Mississippi, came up in
order, and Mr.. Yickers argued that the
alleged declaration by Mr.. Ames, to be
citizen of Mississippi, did not amount to
anything, as no voluntary action on his
part could be shown to make the intention
valid.

everything. According to that gentleman,
Mr.. Butler, If anybody brought to the
House exparte affidavits taken in Virginia,
New Orleans or Texas. making charges
against member, he would have to be
ousted from his seat and tried on the
charges he had heard. Some of the most
outrageous charges were made against
sundry members of the House. He did not
believe that any member had ever taken
minister of the Gospel and chained him in
chain gang of negroes and made them
all work together like slaves He did not
believe any member of the House had car
ried away the treasury of whole city.
TLaughterl 1t was false if anybody said
it and he for one would spurn, with con-
tempt, man who would ask the House
such question; but if the House tried this
question, itkwould have to try that.
Mr.. Butler-Will the gentlemen let me
say?
Mr.. Stevenson-No sir. 1 believe in
lea taliORis.
Mr. Butler-That is, gave you five
minutes--you will not give me any.
Mr.. Stevenson-The gentleman robbed
the Committee of Elections of its whole
time, ard gave back five minutes
Laughter.
Finally the discussion ceased. The
motion of Mr.. Shanks was rejected, and
the four Texas members sworn in. Their
names are w. L. Clark. J. G. Conner,
E. Degener and J. w. Whitmore.
Conner Explains.
On motion of Mr.. Orth Mr.. Conner was
allowed ten minutes for personal explana-
ton, in which he attributed the opposi-
ton of Mr.. Shanks to the fact that his,
Corners father, had been prominent OPP
ponent to that gentleman, in the conven-
ton that nominated him for Congress, and
that he, Shanks, supposed he owned him
because he hadnominated him to the naval
academy. AS to Mr.. Butler, he said, with
all that gentlemans talent and ability he
had been forcibly impressed, to-day, with
the conviction that he, Butler, had missed
his calling, and that he would have made
much better character for himself In the
profession of low comedian.
The Speaker reminded the gentleman
from Texas that his language was not par
hamentary.
Mr.. Butler, (disdainfully) -Oh, he knows
no better. Laughter.
Mr.. Conner-I withdraw it.
Mr.. Shanks remarked that the member
from Texas had not told the House he was
turned out of the Naval Academy for utter
worthlessness, and again added that he was
worthless.
The Speaker reminded Mr.. Shanks that
the gentleman from Texas was now a men,
Der of the House, and that remarks in re-
ference to him which were in order an hour
ago were not in order now.
Mr.. Shanks-I beg pardon of the Honse,
but not of the gentleman.
The House then went into committee of
the whole on the Tariff bill, and was ad-
dressed in support of it by Mr.. Schenck,
chairman of the Committee on Ways and
Means.

Our friends will bear in mind that the
grand exhibition of art and statuary will
take place this afternoon at 8 o'clock, at
No. II Maxwell House, and continue open
till 10 clock at night. The exhibition will
consist of over seventy-ive scenes, by the
most celebrated artists of Europe and
America, embracing landscapes, nautical
scenery, still-lfe and animal subjects.
There will be also several pieces of statuary
from the great masters. We have no doubt
but that it will be one of the most chast'
and classical exhibitions that has been pre-
scented for some time.

The Fruit Crop.

The Springfield Record says; eve are
clad to be able to state that the peach crop
in this section is not damaged in the least.
1t is true very large share were nipped
in the bud, but if we are blest with season
barren of fgosts and cold spells we will have
the greatest abundance of this most de-
licious fruit.
The fruit in this section of country (says
the Morristown Gdzette) has not been
killed by the recent cold weather. If there
is not cold spell in April, we may yet
have an abundant yield of fruit.
The GAINESVILLE Tobacco LeGf says :
esPeach trees are now in full bloom, and so
far as we have been able to learn, the pros
pect for full crop of all varieties of fruit
is very fattering.

The Legal Tender DeciSion-HOarss
Argument for Revision.
Secretary Boutwell, was present in the
Supreme Court to-day.
Attorney General Hoar made a brief
argument to show why the legal tender de-
cison should be reopened. he was not
insensible to the great weight of Judiciary
In its public reputation and its claims to
the confidence of the country, but more
important decision in its consequences
both public and private, was never before
pronounced The statute on which it was
based, was passed by a large majority in
Congress and approved by the President as
having all forms of law. Attention had
been called in both Houses to its cOnstitu-
tionality.
There was this weight of authority TO be-
gin with, and besides it was law substan-

ly eight years, and on which millions upon
millions of dollars contracts had been set
tied The statute, so far as he was aware,
with one exception, had been held constl-
tution1 by every State tribunal At the
time by law, this court consisted OF nine
members; there were seven only on the
bench, there being two vacancies. The
question was decided here by four against
three judges.
The question, therefore, stood, reduced
it to its essence, that upon the political
opinion of a single man the case was adj
Indicated He suggested that it should not
be left TO a single man to decide upon the
whole constitutional power affecting
legislation of such an important character.
He pressed the reopening Of the question,
because It concerned the great mass Of
private interests, but more especially be-
cause it seemed to him to involve the fun
damental principles and powers of gov
eminent.
He desired again to present it when the
bench was full, so they may forever settle
what the law should be. Such cases of re-
consideration were by no means without
example. In the case of AlcCulloch VS..
the State of Maryland, the court after the
opinion was pronounced allowed the
question TO be reopened and reargued. 1t
seemed to him that it would be better for
all parties concerned if the opinion in the
legal tender case could be changed.
The Counter Argument.
Mr.. James NJ. Carlisle replied, saying
that the Attorney General had analysed
and disparagingly critieisedthe court, be-
cause, as he had remarked, the question
was decided by a vote Of single Judge.
However that might be, it was the judg-
ment of the court which had been pro
nounced in that case.
What now was to become of the highest
judicial tribunal in the land if opinions
were to be re-opened and re-argued because
of a small majority deciding a question
Which ever might be the majority it was
nevertheless an opinion of the court. Wha
had they to do with the previous action o.
the court?
The Court said they would takethC
matter under advisement.
