appreciation of the speech in frequent out
bursts of laughter and applause.
Less poetcal. but replete With good sense
and manly thought was the brief impromptu
talk of the General of the Army, wrung from
him in spite ofthe "safe conduct of the chair
by the importantly of the company. He al
ways talks well and is quite at his ease when
speaking, but as he remarked there seemed to
be something incongruous between Grating
and fighting, which led to a popular belief
that the best soldier of the Republic was
| most gifted for silence.
Chlef Justice Daily discoursed of the poets
and dramatlsts OF Ireland. He has a sympa-
thetic voice, admirably adapted to the recital
| of pathetic and emotional verse, and his
speech evinced the rare culture and extensive
reading for which this eminent jurist, and
ripe scholar is famous. Every New Yorker
likes to hear Judge DAILY. His utterances
bear the impress of sincerity as well of fine
literary taste, and then he has been $50 clear

for thirty years, with so much dignity, purity
| and sbility-has kept the ermine that graced
his shoulders white, when others were max
ing the very name of Judge by-word and re-
proach-and has been withal true Ameri-
can, loyal to the flag, faithful to every duty OF
citizenship, never permitting his traditional
love for the green isle of his ancestors to over
master his pracic ical affection for, and honor
able service to the Republic of the new world
that he is held in reversnt regard, by all men
of all parties and all creeds. At each recur-
ring election ofjudges, amid all the chances
and changes of politics this irreproachable
and eminently just judge, has by universal
consent been exempted from the mutations
of party warfare, and holds his place by pro-
scriptive right aud in unchallenged security.

The growing evil of excessive legis-
lation is well discussed by q Connec-
ticut newspaper. with . clear percep-
ton OF the principle that special legis-
lation Is ignorant legislation: THE
way to prevent multiplication Of
laws" says the writer, sis to enact
general ones which shall cover q wide
range Of cases. This is more and more
clearly seen to be a necessity In rail
way legislation especially. the need is
very great OF passing such laws, in or
der to prevent the granting OF special
charters. The legislature of New Jer-
sey, after engaging in . terrible con-
test with the Pennsylvania railroad
Company, has finally seen that the
proper thing is to pass 3 general rail-
road law which shall proven, any
further applications to that body for
railway legislation. The PennsyIva-
MIA Legislature has done very little Ia
the way OF passing general laws. The
consequence 10 that two thousand bills
have been introduced during the pres
ent session. In these days every safe
guard should be put around legislation
to make 1t proper, and the passage OF
general laws is the strongest safeguard
yet discovered"

The following facts were ELECTED In
the examination Of Captain Williams.
Of the wrecked steamer Atlantic: That
the third officer was the only officer on
the vessel who had ever taken 4 shin
into the harbor Of Halifax, and he was
on duty when the disaster occurred.
that no other officer on board, In fac.
had ever been in the harbor; that IL
the Captain had been sounding repu.
larry from twelve to three O'Clock a.
he should have been doing, the cata..
trophe would not have occurred-and
had the ofncsrs on duty at the time
bsen thoroughly mindful Of their dutie.
It would have prevented the dreadful
occurrence. On the whole, II look.
very much as though the great wreck
and the loss Of sevaral hundred human
lives was the direct result Of the care
'sssnsss ifnot the incompetency oftwo
or three men.

The House Of Representatives Of Ill
inois has adopted the following resolu-
ton unanimously:

The House Of Representatives Of H.
inois has adopted the following resolu-
ton unanimously:
Resoired, BY the House Of represen-
tativee, the senate concurring, that
Congress be requested to otter an
amendment to the Constitution Of the
United States, In substance - follows:
Declaring oil railways 10 the United
States public highways, and author
izing Congress to establish and control
the Interstate or through rates Of
charges for the transportation Of per-
sons and property thereon, and TO offer
IN amendment to the Constitution Of
the United States declaring that the
provisions OF the Federal Constitution,
In Section 10, page l, declaring that no
State shall pass an ex post facto law or
laws impairing the obligation Of con-
tracts, shall not be construed to pro-
hibit any State from regulating the To-
cal rates Of freight and passenger fares
within the State.
There can be no doubt that railway
managers have been encouraged to de-
fy the people by the belief that there
was no power which could reach them.
This has led to reckless speculation In
stocks, and to arbitrary management |
of the roads. But II the railroads are
declared to be public highways, and
full power over them Is given TO Con-
gress, BY the great charter Of free gov
ernment the Constitution OF the Unit |
ed States, the reign OF railroad auto
cracy will come an end, and the rail-
way kings will be glad to make peace
by doing justice to all sections. Of the
country. Indeed, IL is doubtful
whether any legislation would be re-
CURED II this power was once securely
In tho Constitution. -Dur.
