or tile .murdereSs.and her confessions.
Her real name is said to he Lizzie
Floyd King, though she han been
known by several different aliases, and

her confession she sdid that she had
lived with Goodrich for more than a
year, that he had grown tired of her
and ordered her to leave his house and
not to trouble him more, that she loved
him and could not bear the idea of a
separation, and for that reason had
shot him on the morning Of the goth of
March, killing him instantly. She
remained in the house with his, body
that day and the following night, and
was on her return to the house when
she first knew that the murder had
been discovered, by fin Ling an account
Of it in the New York daily papers.

Death of Judge Steele.

Intelligence of the death of Hon.
Benz. II. Steele of Hartland has been
received. The event transpired at
Fairbault, MIMI, on the 18th inst.
He had for some years been afflicted
with catarrhal and pulmonary tenden-
cies and went west some weeks ago
in the hope of being benefited by the
climate. Judge Steele was a native
of Stanstead, p. O., and was born in
1887. At the age of twenty he grad
uated at Dartmouth. Before grad
uating LIE began the study of law and
was admitted to the bar, not long
after. When in his 9th year he was
appointed by Gov. Dillingham; to fill
vacancy in the Supreme Court of
the State, the youngest man ever
holding the place in Vermont. In
this important position he sustained
himself in an uneXceptlonable man
ner and was annually reelected until
1870, when on account of urgent
business calls he declined another
election.
In 1872 he was one of the delegates
at large to the National Republican
Convention, and was a member OF
the Committee, on Resolutions. He
is understood to have been one Of the
most active persons in that commit
tee, and the author Of one of the
resolutions reported by the commit
tee.
Judge Steele was one of the strong
est and most promising men of Yer
mont. For legal ability, varied OBJ
servaoion aud reading, social qualities
and accomplished oratory, it is no
probable that the State has anothe
Of his age who is his equal.

THE C0trier-J0Urndl says that "if the
APPEAL wants to pay the repudiated
debt Of Mississippi, let it go ahead and
DO it." II the cost Of government in
Mississippi be reduced to the amount
consumed in 1860, when the ability to
pay and public and private wealth was
thTee-fold greater than to-day, the
people could easily pay three per cent.
on eighteen millions consOls, into which
the repudiated bonds might be converted.
If bondholders would have the debt
paid, let them intervene in behalf OF
honest, economical government in Mis-
sissippi, and, with railways and canals
completed as now proposed, the annual
cost Of the debt may be regarded too
trifling to prevent the erasure of q stain
from the States fair fame. If ii
were an honest debt thirty years
ago, it is as honestly due to-day.
States never die, and never for
get or lose receipts, or grow old, and
there is no neral or statutory act Of linn
itations hedging in q States obligation
TO pay. But this is a question to be dis
cussed in future years, when there may
be possibility Of practical results. just
now il is absurd to talk Of that which is
impossible The APPEAL is in the habit
Of paying its debts, but rarely undertakes
the job proposed by the Courier, Journal,
Of providing for contracts cf others. If,
however, the State of Mississippi will
restore its credit by economical prac-
tices, thus saving the people intolerable
burdens, there viii be found capitalists
enough 10 approve the bonds and fur.
nish the State with money to meet its
honest debts and build its railways.

WASHINGTON, March IS. Senator
Wright moved that the senate take up
for consideration the resolution sub
mitted by him, proposing that the previ-
Gus question may be demanded either
10y a majority vote or in some modified
form.
Senator Thurman objected to the con-
sideration Of the resolution.
Senator Wright showed the necessity
of adopting some such rule for the pur-
pose Of facilitating the transaction of
public business.
Senator Sherman hoped the resolution
would be taken up and referred to the
committee on rules without debate, and
let them examine the whole subject and
report at the next session.
After considerable debate the senate,
by a vote Of 35 against so, refused TO
take up and thus refer the resolution.
On motion Of Senator Anthony the
commissioner Of agriculture was re-
quested to communicate to the senate
his annual report, with accompanying
papers, which were ordered to be printed.
Senator West asked the senate to take
up his resolution giving the commission
ers on the leyees Of the Mississippi river
leave to sit during the recess, and report
on the condition of the levees Of the
Mississippi; also, on the propriety of the
government controlling and maintain
ing the same.
The chair decided the resolution out
of oIdeT.
The senate proceeded to the consider
alton Of the case Of Senator Caldwell.
Senator COnkling said that Senator
Caldwell was legally elected, and now,
two years after the election, the senate
was asked to declare that he was never
elected at all, and that in law and fact
40 such election ever took place, and
that IN law the seal has been vacant all
the time. He CConkling) could not so
pronounce; his oath, as he understood
A. forbade him doing so, Every time
the senate transcended law, in order
that particular good might come, they
gilded with new light the exclamation
of Roland: "Oh, Liberty, how many
crimes are committed in thy namew
The senate could not hold that Cald-
well was not elected, and at the same
time maintain that they could eXpel
him; they could expel no one except
he be a member, and no one could be a
senator unless he was 50 elected, but for
the purpose Of eXpelling him would the
senate hold him up for a while as a sem
ator for the purpose Of knocking him
down: either Caldwell was elected or
the senate have no power to expel him.
Mr.. Conkling, without concluding his
remarks gave way for the executive
session, at the expiration Of which the
senate adjourned.

right to vote, and the rights and privi-
| leges men enjoy. Arkansas is educated

| The judiciary committee disgorged
numerous bills recommending passage
or rejection. They recommend the
passage of the following bills: Relating
| to the Arkansas Industrial association;
allowing gas companies an increase of
| their capital stock; substitute exempt
| ing household and kitchen utensils from
| taxation; to protect levees against in
| iury by wheeled vehicles; Mr.. Nc

late the sale of liquors, which provides

will be a wholesale exodus of barkeep-
ers from Arkansas.
A bill changing the lines of Poinsett

This is long-looked for measure.
The bill creating Coolidge county
was amended so as to elect county
officers, and set for Thursday.
The anti-BaXterites are writhing in
defeat. Their failure is only excelled by
their short-sighted folly.
The passage of the supervisors bill
was agreed upon in full.
There is a Republican caucus tonight,
Mr.. Miller has gone to work in earnest,
