speech, and the entire report, amounting
to about seventeen columns, was tele-
graped to New York and elsewhere that
night Tt was the most powerful, saw
age and uncompromising arraignment OF
the President that can be imagined. No
description or exposition can convey the
true intent. purport or effect of his eff
fort Within the range of our hearing
there were so many and such clashing
verdicts given to the merits and prob
able effect, that we fell to thinking how
many men of many words there are !;
but most of them agreed upon one point,
that there is but one man in the Senate
that could make such speech. BY the
time he had finished there was such a
gathering of the intellect, ability and
personal power of the country as has
not been seen since the days of the high
Court of impeachment.
SENATOR sCHURz
followed him in the evening, and drew
his usual complimentary audience, but
his effort was directed mainly to criti-
cal review of the French arms report
and vindication of himself from its
charges. TO this extent he made a firm
speech, but in the main seemed to dis
appoint his audience, who expected an
attack from him upon the administra-
ton, as well as his own defense. He
went over the ground of previous dis
cussion and developed nothing new.
You can't pass off a secondhand, or re-
modelled, or a warmed-oyer article upon
such an audience on such occasions.
SENATOR CARPENTER
was to reply on Saturday, but was un-
well, and Logan and Conkling submitted
a few remarks to keep things going.
To-day Carpenter reviewed Summers
speech at length in vindication of the adj
ministration He had large audience
and held them well for number Of
hours He gave full play to one of his
prominent characteristics, personal ridicule
and mirth, and created not little laugh
ter His speech contained food for the
popular appetite, but it showed not the
careful thought and study of Summers.
In reading, where the peculiar attract
ions of the speaker are lost, it viii suf-
fer. whereas Sumner will lose nothing
in reading but the sensitive and personal
feeling manifested by the speaker, which
failed to lend aid to his words. The
Senate is now launched upon the open
sea of political debate which deties
calculation as to limit. Many are leav-
inc for the Philadelphia convention,
over which hangs the severed interests
of forty millions of people. *"

GREELEY RATIFICATION MEETING IN
New YORK, The Times says of the
ratification meeting last night, that it
was chiefly remarkable for what it was
not. 1t was not nearly so large as had
been hoped The speakers who address,
ed it were relatively insignifcants. The
Herald says it was an immense and
popular assemblage, the largest and
most imposing and enthusiastic political
ratification meeting drawn together in
this city since the ratification of Sey-
mour and Blair in 1868. The Tribune
says the ratification meeting last night
takes rank among the great and most
enthusiastic assemblages held in this
city since the war. The World says it
can hardly be termed an enthusiastic
gathering even by the most enthusiastic
friends of the Sage himself The only
outburst of applause that enlivened the
dullness was that following the mention
of Senator Summers name.

A PRESIDENTS House AT SARATOGA.
A movement is on foot in Saratoga to
purchase residence at that place to be
devoted to the exclusive use and occupa-
ton of the President of the United
States, whenever he chooses to use it. The
idea is a novelone. They go on the prin-
cipal, says local paper, that Presidents
need as much relaxation as anybody,
and as they are men not usually chosen
on account of the length of their pur-
ses, the relatively small salary on which
they are required to support an expen-
sive establishment with open doors to
the nation, does not usually leave much
margin for summer trips.

STRIKES. In a sermon on strikes on
Sunday night, Henry Ward Beecher
said that the mass OF labor had been
swayed by politicians, and the result
was great dissatisfaction, Labor had
been trodden under foot and despised.
He was in sympathy with labor and the
present movement. Labor is discon-
tented, because it seems vulgar to eat
your bread by the sweat of your brow.
Refinement had been monopoly too
long. The movement shows a desire
for refinement, and its success means
elevation; but workingmen are inclined
to become too proud. They forget that
Christ was the son of carpenter. They
will disfranchise themselves if they do
not have care.

Mr.. GARRIsoN's LETTER We pub
lished yesterday the admirable letter of
VIM. Lloyd Garrison to Mr.. Sumner.
There can be no doubt that the letter
was prompted from a strong sense of
duty. No one, not even the most ardent
supporter of Mr.. Greeley, can pretend to
deny this The old veteran criticises
more in sorrow than in anger the ill-ad-
vised production of his old friend and
felloW-workcr, but the letter is none the
less enc of the most convincing of all
the proofs already furnished, that it is
not the Republican party which is leav-
inc Mr. Sumner, but that it is Mr.. Sum
ner who is pursuing peryerse and pur-
poseless course, into which no section of
that party viii follow him.

mr. MrANrsT THING.

The meanest thing we know OF, the
most contemplate conduct that can be
imagined is the holding on by the gov
eminent to the property Of Mrs. Lee
widow Of General Lee. There is no
plausible excuse for il, and the outrage
il defended only on the ground that a
cemetery of Union soldiers has been es-
tabIished there, and that their sacred
bones must not be disturbed. Every
foot Of land in Virginia could have
passed to the government IN the same
way. When Mr.. McCreery, ofKentucky'
a wear or two since, introduced into the
senate resolution looking to the resto-
ration of the Arlington property to Its
rightful owner, storm of indignation
burst out in that body. The Kentucky
senator was not mobbed, but his PROPOSE
ton was. Its stated that Mrs. Lee is
asking compensation for the property
and that better feeling in regard to the
matter prevails in congress. We have
no idea that such is the fact. Not until
the Infamous restrictions are removed
from the South will Mrs. Lees rights be
