Speech of Alex. H. stephens ON SAL
aries.
WASHINGTON, Dec. lin the Senate
Gordon offered a series of resolusions,
prefxed by long preamble, reciting in
substance that the abolition Of the frank
ing privilege had deprived agricultural
lists Of many valuable seeds and much
interesting reading, for which depriva-
tons there should be an important re-
duction in expenses, etc.
Stephens, Of Georgia, spoke in the
House. He rose to his feet, assisted by
one of the pages, and supported himself
with crutch. Many members left their
seats, and gathered around him. He
was listened to with marked attention.
His manner was nervous. In his re-
marks he said he was not going to place
value on his own services as Repre-
sentatives, but il be was to state what he
thought the services of Representative
ought to be worth, he would go far above
any figure yet named. He had given il
as his opinion in thelas speech he made
in the House, IA years ago, that if the
pay of the Members OF Congress wal
SO, 1000, Senators $l5 900, Associate Jus
tees $4,000, and the rest $1,000, i
would be better for the country at large
He held the same opinion still.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 12.-The Commit
tee on the Judiciary to-day, by a vote o
six to four, agreed to report bill repeal
ing the bankrupt law, guarding, how
ever, pending suits and rights.

AT San Jose, Cal, recently, man was
sentenced by Justice of the Peace to
four months imprisonment and $50 fine
or 80 days further imprisonment for
beating his wife. The case was taken
before the County Judge on writ of
habeas corpus, where counsel sought to
vacate the Judgment because it joined
both fine and mprisonment-the point
being that the Justice should have Sc
lected one or the other, but could not
couple and impose both, The petition
did not prevail, and the writ was de-
stroyed. The Atlas San Jose reporter
says Of this case:
The Judge refused to review any por-
ton of the evidence upon which the
trial and conviction before the Justice
were conducted and reached; and laid
down the rule to be CONTRARY to the
practice of his predecessor that the pur-
pose of habeas corpus is only to ascer-
tain the sufficiency of the judgment and
commitment, but that the writ is not an
appeal authorizing the upper Court to
open the testimony-that in the action
of the Supreme Court Justices and the
Judges, relied on the counsel, there is no
review of the testimony, except where a
fatal defect appears in the commitment
or Judgment and, instead of discharging
the defendant, the Judge resolves him
self into committing magistrate, to in
quire whether public offense has been
committed, etc. Some OF the lawyers here
have been of the opinion that they could
'exhaust the Judicial power of the
State" in prosecuting remedy by
habeas corpus.
New TERRITORIAL gentleman from
Ell Paso county, Texas, has informed the
editor Of the Las Cruces New Mexico)
Borderer that nine tenths Of the people
in his section would favor the formation
of a new Territory, to be created by an
nexing two or three counties of North
western Texas with Southern New
Mexico. Although the people Of Texas
have hitherto opposed that which tended
to q Acknowledgement of the Lone Star
State, it is said that they will aid this
move for the creation Of the Territory OF
'Montezuma. The Borderer also takes
kindly to the idea, and thinks it woult
materially benefit Southern New Mexico
and Northwestern Texas.

Speaking Of the State Republican
Convention, the Homestedd, the State
organ Of the Grangers, says:
An attempt was made in that con.
veBtioH by certain leaders OF the Re-
publican party, TO nominate for Lieu.
Governor the chief officer in the Order
Of Patrons Of Husbandry, one Of the
reasons offered privately that it was
policy to have the good will OF that
Order. We are pleased that such .
nomination was not made. The ms-
jority OF the convention we're Patrons
and could have nominated whom they
pleased, but they preferred to keep the
Order and the party separate, each to
take care OF itself.

Hc IsdiiIod0 uHu :" hIcuOusc Soin-
missioners Of Illinois, on the I'd inst.
gave the following opinion upon var
ious questions raised by the new rail-
road law Of that State:
STATE OF ILLINOIS. J.,
OFFICE OF THE RAILROAD AND WARE
HOUSE COMMISSIONERS, July j.
To the Public.
Some important questions having
arisen under the act of May 2, 1873, to
| prevent extortion aud unjust discrim-
| ination, we deem 1t proper to make
| known TO the public our construction
Of certain PORTIONS of the act. We
| would first direct attention to the first
| section, which declares that 'if any
railway corporation doing business III
this State shall charge or receive more
than q fair and reasonable rate of toll
| or compensation for the transportation
| Of passengers or freight, the same shall
| be deemed guilty Of extortion, and up.
on conviction. be punished by specific
penalties" The avowed object Of the
| statute is To prevent extortion a. well
as unjust discrimination. In making
their rates Of charges conform TO the
requirements of the third section de-
fining what would be prima facie evi
dence OF unjust discrimination, tn use
railroad companies must not ignore
the first section forbidding extortion.
In our judgment the rates OF charges
prior to this date have been in the
main unreasonable high, and any in
crease thereof would be q clear viola
ton Of the law.
The following are the questions
above referred to:
!. Does the act apply to through
freights as well rs local freights?
2. Does the act admit OF any dis
elimination in freight tariffs based up
on the quantity shipped, or must rail-
way companies, to comply with the
act, adopt one uniform rate per one
hundred pounds per ton, or per car
load. regardless Of the quantity or the
amount OF shipment?
3. Where two or more railroads.
operated by different Companies, are
80 connected as to form, In fact. one
continuous line, and shipments are
made from point on one road to |
point on the other. may they charge |
at the rate applicable to the distance |
over both roads, or the aggregate Of |
Of the local rates on each road?
4. Can railway corporations here |
After issue excursion tickets:
After due consideration Of these |
questions We have arrived at the ioi- |
lowing conclusions;
j. The provisions Of the oct are a. |
sppiicxxL'e - vel; ~ through ss 10 To- /
cal freThts, 20 far al least as ~ re- /
quife That less should be charged for /
the transportation OF domestic or 10 |
cal frefehts from one point to Another |
within this STATE that the SUR chars-
ed for the transportation Of through or /
foreign freight. The same distance
within the state and for its Transport
tation from or to . point without the
State. Thus the charges from q point
west Of the State to point within
the State must not be the came az, or
lese than the charges from the west !

brief notes from most of the points:

frame OF mind in "the day we cele-

partly from the depressing sul.ryness
OF the day-it will be but brief and
imperfect account We can give Of the
proceedings on the GLORIOUS Fourth"
AT CLARENCE.
The Fourth Of July in Clareuce
dawned very like in other parts OF the
county-not remarkably pleasant or
promising, and was met some where
near the top of the morning by a So.
lutte Of thirteen guns which were none
the less patriotic because the gun was
an anvil. The next event of the day
appeared to be the arrival OF the early
train from the west, which breugh

with sprinkling Of older ones. A
this time the weather still betokenet
storm and nothing on the streets o
the pretty village particularly indica
ted the celebration Of the nations ma
tai save the suspended banners ant
the ubiquitous Young Americans will
their pop guns and fire crackers. On
more ugly dash of rain from the sui
ienly overhanging clouds and all hop
for anything of q day in Clarenc
would be at an end. But the rain dit
not come and the eastern train did

Here the Fourth began. Th,
weather frightened visibly and teams
began to arrive rapidly, SO that by
the appointed hour for the public ex
ercises large company repaired t.
the handsome grove Of young NAPLES
where seats and stand had been pre-.
pared. Mr.. John Boiling, the Marshal
Of the Day, directed the formation and
march Of the procession with skill
born Of army experience; and the

music here ahd during the day, was
