WORCESTER.
ErnuEsDAY. FEBRUARY 2e. 1879.

The New York Tribune takes notice that the
house of representatives at Washington, "dear-
" loves good debate" and for Illustration,
says it dragged ''the Chorpenning claim, the Al
ALBANIA treaty, and civil service reform into q
discussion of the diplomatic appropriation OH
II Is pretty wen understood that there is m con-
gress an undue tendency TO talk; bat IS not
as well understood, that, in many cases. the
taking power of members far exceeds thclf
working power. 1t is quite certain that the
house could do its business as successfully and
much more promptly, if very considerable
norton of the ralk il allows should be restrained.
# is possible that the Tribune is right in saving
HAT "hy and By the members will suddenly
wake M and discover that the Philadelphia con-
yentiop is so near at hand that the public bust
ness cannot possibly be considered"
What the Tribune says of the house would
be much more pertinent, just now, if it were
said OF the senate. The house may have allowed
more talk than the occasion required; neyerthe-
less, it was engaged in doing its appropriate
work. But how was ii over at the other end of |
the clpitol7 In tue senate, public business had |
been laid aside, and, for days, the senators had |
given their lime TO the discussion OF a factous
political demonstration, 10 a president making
or unmaking torrent Of talk, which is as much
out of place in that body, and as inappropriate
for senators, as it was for Andy johnson to
break out of the White House and Swing
round the circle" or as it would be for the sena-
tors to adopt Mr.. Hamlin's suggestion and sing
''Old Hundred" when important matters are
under consideration. The gentlemen who sit in
the senate werenot sent to Washington to operate
as president makers, and their constituents gener-
ally will not be content TO have them push aside
the public business in order to engage in this
work. They overrate their personal importance
10 the country, we fear, and forget how many of
the millions of voters, and especially of rcpubli-
can voters, are accustomed to think for them
selves. VIII the Tribune make plain the sin
cerity of its criticism Of the house, by giving
proper attention 10 this very censurable behavior
of senators?

A New Use for The Telegraph.

Within the memory of men yet Young the
idea Of communicating with distant places by
means of an electric telegraph was ridicued in
congress as The insane project of visionary.
little later, when its practicability was estab-
lished, it was a marvel, upon whose possession
we could not sufficiently congratulate ourselves.
As the years passed on, new capacities and new
empoyments were found for this servceabe
agent. II was made to transmit notice of fire
or other cause of alarm, to regulate clocks and
to fire batteries; path was laid for it under
the sea, and it brought us the news of events at
the other side Of the world at nominally earlier
hour Than that at which they occurred. There is
certain degree of dignity in these employments,
the powerful spirit is called upon only when an
emergency exists Justifying his intervention, by
the imposslbity of otherwise obtaining an i'm
portant end with the necessary promptness or
regularity.
protector in New York, however, proposes
to make the telegraph still more Familiarity use
full by giving it less dignifed and more strictly
domestic work to do. His project is to es-
tabliSh offices at convenient places in the CITY
from which messengers can be sent at any mo-
ment TO any house wirhin the limits of its dis
trict. Each Office will be connected by telc-
graphic wires with the houses of such persons
as are willing to pay small sum monthly fol-
the benefits Of the system, which operates as
follows: BY touching key at any house con
nected with the Office notice is given that mes
senger is wanted, and one will be immediatel,
dispatched from the Office, On reporting him
self he is sent on any errand, for Which paw
ment is made to the company at the rate of ff
teen cents for every half hour he is employed
The connection is made and the small KEY in
strumant supplied by the company without
charge, the revenue affordlng compensation, on
the same princplein accordance with which gas
companies lay their pines and furnish meters
for their customers.
The advantages of this plan it will be OBJ
served are numerous. 1t will afford many of
the conyeniences of an errand boy constantly in
waiting, at very small part of the cost. 1t Of
fers also the assurance of summoning, with the
least possible delay, help if burglars are dscov-
cred in the house at night, friend or physician
in case of illness, and prompt relief if a fire

Our EIecticn-state and Municipal.

Little or no progress was made Monday
nigbt in counting or arranging TO count the
ballots after the boxes were taken TO the
State House IN yesterdays issue we gave
all the particulars that could be obtained.
1t was nearly one o'clock last evening
before counting began in earnest as proper
blanks for taIlymen were not produced
until that hour, when United states Super
visor Longstreet announced that all was
ready. He suggested to State Registrar
Blanchard that single ballot be taken for
a box, and the names called of from top to
bottom. This course was adopted.
The boxes for the several wards were ar
ranged il different parts Of the room, each
ward having It's proper officers to attend to
the duties OF counting. The work pro
gresSeG slowly, but surely.
Hundreds of citizens wished 20 enter the
building, but only portion could be ad-
mitted. Policemen stood at tLe outer door,
and allowed only those who we're deputy
marshals cr other officials to enter. AT the
upper door were other policemen who, IN
turn, challenged all who sought admittance.
BY this means the room was kept tolerably
clear Of idlers, and clerks were able to pro
ceed IN 5heir !abors withou: much annoy
ance.
The progress Of counting ''poll one" of
each ward or precinct was slow and tedious
The hours dragged slowly along 0ntil
twelve o'clock. when il became a matter Of
fact that there were returns from poll one"
only from wards fourteen and fifteen COM
