REFORM IN ENNSYLVANLA.
TIE PHILADELPHIA ELECTION LAW.

SPEECH OF COL. MCCLURE IN THE PENNSYLVANIA
sESATE-TIIE PRESENT LAW THE INSTRUMENT
OF FRAUD-THE COURTS POwERLEss-A CHAPTER
OF PERSONAL EXPERIENCES.
The speech of Col. Mcclure in the Pennsyl-
vana Senate in advocacy his bill regulate elections
in Philadelphia so alarmed the Republican leaders that
Senator Harry White Of Indiana thrust
forward TO reply. Col McClures response to
this. was more powerful than his first speech.
The following extracts from 1T The existing regis
try law OF city is without defender apOlogst-
not one voice been raised to plead for it, And the
bill now under consideration, which had passed to third
reading without call OF the Senate, dissent
ing vote has thus far in this debate challenged un-
friendly criticism in vain. No one has complained that
it proposes invade any public rights, or tolerate any
public wrongs After the earnest effort OF some Senators
to array party feeling, and apply the party lash, to
defeat the bill, all who have ventured TO aim at It's
overthrow have with gifts TO its necessity and
confessions of its integrity Not one, not one has been
so bold and reckless as that vital modlh
cation of the registry law notimperatvey demanded
aud not one pointed out single defect OF the meas
ure | have proposed to the Senate. Some have come
manfuIly TO the front and legsate faithfully
and commend legislation to the virtue and ntelli-
gence OF the Senate and Of the people OF Philadelphia
Some have come with hesitation. and tremblingy con-
fessed the wrong aud practically confessed themselves
UNEQUAL to the duty OF sustaining honest law Others
have come with decefu provisions as substitutes,
speclous SO fraudulent. and at with their
professions OF Justice that they are simply hollow mock
cries and merit only contempt.

A correspondent of the Nation says that,
in deciding the ultimate fate of Marshal
Bazaine, the judges will have no choice /;
the questions which will be put to them by
the president are determined by the mill
tary code. Has the marshal, or has he not,
signed q capitulation in the open field Z
Has this capitulation had for it's conse-
auenee the disarmament of an armyf Was
it signed before he had done all that duty
and honor required If FIVE judges out Of
seven answer these three questions unfa-
vorably, the marshal, by the terms of the
military law, will be shot. If they answer
unfavorably to tho first two, and favorably
to the third, his life will be safe but he
will lose all his dignities in the army, and
in the Legion Of Honor"

MRS. LEES LAST VISIT TO ARLINGTON
There are few modern incidents more full
of simple pathos than the quiet visit which
Mrs. Mary Gusts Lee paid to her old home
stead of Arlington about three weeks be-
fore her death. Mrs. Lee had not put in
words her hearts, longing for the place en-
deared to her by 30 many bright associe-
tons. Daring the Generals lifetime she
had not said word about her con6scated
estate, and after his death she did NO moro
than consent that a modest petition should
be sent up to Congress asking that the
Judgment which deprived her Of her an
oient home for NO fault of her own, should
at any rate be examined into, even If II
could not be revised. It was thought she
took this step for the good Of her children,
and not because che had any personal feel
ing in the matter. But when she felt the
hand Of death begin to tighten upon Ler,
abe painfully left the seclusion to which ten
years of rheumatism and fever had confined
her, slowly and with sad interest revisited
the old homestead and the scenes of her
youth and womanhood gazed upon that
which she had loved 30 we'll and lopged
for in silence and resignation, and then
went quickly back again to Lexington to
die: 1t will add pang to the sense of loss
which her friends have for this gracious
lady, of such nobility Of character and pa
tience in affliction, to feel that to her other
|griefs was Joined the unavailing yearning
for the old home she could not come back
Ito-a yearning not put in words nor sus-
Ipected until expressed by that most pa
|thetic leave-taking on the eve of death.

The Doctor remained in Shreveport till the last
patient was convalescent, and returns home
in good health, Though quite exhausted with
his severe labors. He attended tho Rev. Father
Ferec during his illness, and had the pleasure
of seeing his efforts in this case, as in most

departure from Shreveport, among the number
being one from Mother Hyacinthe, of st. Vim
