- The Georgia Debate.


Mr.. Morton's speech was the note
worthy event in the Senate debate on
the Georgia bill to-day. The posi-
tions Of Mr. Morton on the bill un-
der discussion, and indeed on the
whole reconstruction policy, present
and future, were of the most radical
character, and the presentation of his
views was exceedingly vigorous and
strong. He opposed the Bingham
amendment, arguing that it was in
the interest of the rebels and the De-
mocracy. He charged that the Demo
cratic party was directly resposible
for the murder and assassination in
the South, in proof Of which he cited
various State platforms. all of which
were Immediately followed by fresh
outrages in the South. The Ku Klux
echoes, he said, were heard In the
Senate. This was rather sharp criti
cism to apply to the opposition, and
was by no means relished by the Ju-
dietary Committee, most of whom
were absent from their seats in the
adjoining cloak rooms, where, how
ever, every word could be heard.
The speech appeared to be intended
to stem the tide of conservatism, and
if there were any doubt about it be-
fore, there can be none now, that Mr..
Morton is the most radical of the
Radical leaders. He closed his able
effort by advocating the enactment oi
a law to empower the President te
use the strong arm of the military in
the South wherever a Governor was
weak or a Legislature disloyal. Al
the conclusion he was paid a rare
compliment. Twenty five Senator;
congratulated him, among whom were
| Williams, Sumner, Stewart, Fenton
| Cole, Howell, Howard, Drake, Yates
and nearly all the Southern delega

WASHINGTON, April 10. 1t has
been reported that judges Brad
ley and Strong, of the United States
Supreme Court, would not sit in the

cipal and interest of which, under a
recent decision of the Supreme Court,

SEEKERS.

Mankind are all hunters In various degrees,
But strive in a measure vain fancy to please.
There's the rser with millions, and yet he will cry
Give me more of this world ere leave it and die
Likewise there's the lawyer, who hunts for the fee
1t matters not whether imprisoned or free,
IT'S mans money he wants, without which he's lost,
He receives his life at very great cost.
And there's the physician, just hear what hellsa
cannst do anything without it will pay
If be writes prescription he charges his price,
And when it is filled you pay for it twice.
Sc also the demagouge, who is seeking for fame,
He tolls and he strives TO get great name;
He runs for an office, he seeks for place,
Though often It's true he's out-hung IN the chase.
1t matters not whether in city or on farm,
There is something that acts on all like charm,
And what can that be? IT'S the pleasure of life
That causes so much yaing glory and strife.
But life is so short, and all men must die,
That this is very good reason why
We should seek for that bright and enduring pear
Reserved for the faithful in yonder bright world.
Il crown of bright glory cur Savior will give
To all of His people who faithfully live;
Who earnestly seek first the Kingdom of Heaven
Believing His word, all else will be given.
