after asked Mr.. Sumner to yield, that he
might offer resolution resembling the
Adjournment resolution. Soon after a
caucus Of half dozen took place near
the central door of the chamber, which
presently broke up with many knowing
mods and shakes of the head. Mr.. Conk-
ling then retired to his seat, where he
remained during the remainder of the
speech, reading his late speeches in the
Globe and writing letters. Senators
Morton, Chandler, and the rest of the
Senatorial cabal, could ill.conceal their
anger.
No notice of this speech having been
given beforehand, the galleries were not
more than half full when Mr.. Sumner
began. But the news was not slow to go
out, and one by one the seats in the gal
leries were filed, until before he closed
not only was every seat occupied, but
the entire vacant space outside the bar
of the Senate wss crowded with members
of the House.
Little comment has yet been made
upon the speech, recess of barely two
hours in the session of the Senate having
taken place since its close. One of the
Oldest Senators from New England, a
friend of General Grant, who through
out the speech wore the countenance of
a man at funeral, said that if his ad-
vice, given to the Administration year
ago, had been needed, all of this might
have been prevented A Western Sena-
tor said that the speech was simply ter

Summers SPeeeh-Its Effect I'm the
Senate.

We extract from the Washington letter
of the New York Tribun, :,,.e following
account of the scene in the Senate on
Friday upon the occasion Of Summers s
speech:
When he (Sumner) had proceeded far
enough to show the general drift of the
speech, the CONSERVATION and anger Of
the ring of the Administration managers
was apparant. For few minutes they
sat and scowled, and looked each in the
others faces, then attempted to read
newspapers or to write letters. This
lasted but few minutes. Mr.. Carpen-
ter, after turning uneasily on his seat
and splitting over the back Of his chair
few times, walked down to Mr.. Conk-
Inns seat. where the two Senators stood
long time in the aisle in the most earn
est consultation. Mr.. Sumner stopped,
remarking that he would wait for
the conference 10 close. The Vice
Presidents gavel fell once, twice, three
times, and still the conference went on,
and Mr. Sumner was obliged to proceed
while the two Senators continued their
conversation. Soon after they went
across to Mr.. Coles desk, and he soon

A Mystery solved.

About once in four or five years the ques-
ton, "Was Morgan murdered by the Free
masons?" comes up in the newspapers and
is discussed with as much fervor as If the
transaction it refers to wasssa matter of yes
terday. 1t will sadden those who delight in
mystery to know, on SO good authority as
that of Morgan's son, that the supposed VIC
tim of the mystic tie was neither tied to q
stone and sunk, had his throat cut, nor was
torn asunder, according to the general custom
in such eases. On the contrary he lived until
nearly thirty years after his abduction, and
finally ended his days in corpulence and con-
tentment at Hobardtown, Van Dieman's Land
where he for some years published news
paper, the AdDertiser, which is still in exis-
tence. According to the statement of the
son referred to, Morgan was released On
condition of his leaving the country forever
He was accompanied to Quebeck, where he
entered the British navy, and was placed on
a ship which left soon after for England.
Later he accompanied a government vessel to
Australia, and his period of service being
ended, he chose 10 take up his residence in
that quarter of the world His son rs resi-
dent of San Francisco, and is responsible for
the statement here given. Bost0l Globe. !,
