eme Of the PecuiiarItics of the New Senators

! 0M0 or the FecuIlarltleS Oh bHe NOW senators
Burnside is ever absorbed at the desk
with private correspondents. All sorts
OF notes, dainty and otherwise, heap up
daily before him and he tolls religiously
through them all.
Black X. Bruce, the colored Senator,
thus TAR wears a black kid glove upon
his left hand during the session. He is
very quiet and writes in avery leisurely
the beginning Of long term in the Sem
ate and he will have plenty OF time to
learn the points of the situation.
I Christancy is one oil the most timid OF
the new Senators. He is a man from
provincial life, unused entirely to the
ways of the world, and he is, as matter
of course, unusually weighted with the
responsibilities of the situation. He
wanted to no out of the Republican eau
Gus the other day because he thought
that his presence there would bind him
to abide by the action-of the caucus.
Jones, OF Florida, is the queerest-look-
ing man, He is a tall, ungainly-looking
blonde, with very red face and sharp,
aQuiline features. He has q look about
him Of awkwardness and worldly in
innocence that Is interesting to see. He
makes his headquarters at the Ebbitt-
house, and he spends all of his leisure
moments in walking about the lobbies.
He is OF course surrounded by GRO y DIS
Of people anxious to make his acquaint-
ance. Anything in the shape OF a man
who holds the position OF United States
Senator is valuable acquaintance.
Jones seems to have knowledge OF men
as they 60. He appears to be doubtful OF
his social position, ana fs as awkward in
an introduction as young man from
the rural districts applying lor a situa-
ti0n.
Angus Cameron, Carpenters success
works very steadily at his desk, and
does not pay any too much attention to
the speeches upon the Louisiana ques-
tion.

Cal. MULBERRY Sellers.

OMAHA, August A.
A most terrific hail storm ragged here
at o'clock this morning, doing i'm
mense damage to windows, trees and
crops in this locality. The hailstones
were of monstrous size, and fell from
the northeast. Nearly every window
light in the city facing in that direction
was smashed. The south side of Farm
ham street to-day presents a very d.
lapidated appearance with nearly every
window broken. including the largest
plate glass of business houses, valued
at from one to several hundred dollars
each. Nearly all the glass in the upper
stories of the Grand Central Hotel is
broken. The citizens are at loss to
know how at the present time to repair
the damage, there not being enough
glass in the city to replace more than
about one-twentieth part of that broken.
Glaciers are reaping rich harvest.
The damage to the windows alone il
estimated at 100000. The crops un-
doubtedly have suffered severely from
the hail, but nothing definite has been
heard from the country. The storm
came from the northeast, and extended
about two hundred miles west of here,
and but short distance into Iowa.

THE THIRD-TERM QUESTION.

The third-term question, like Ban
quo's ghost, will not down. Notwith-
standing the declarations of the Penn
sylvania and Ohio Republicans against
it, the agitation of the question is again
revived in the East. Leading members
of the Republican party, who have
been seeking knowledge in the interest
of Grant, have made the astounding
discovery that he is the strongest man
in the party for President, and in a
popular election will poll at least u
fourth more votes than anybody on the
same side of the house who has been
named for the succession. If this as
sertion is held to be we'll founded.
Grant of course will be the man, as the
party will require all the votes its
strongest man can get, and quarter of
million more, to elect him. As the
views of prominent men on the third
term are of interest and have weight
with the masses of the party, the Mil
waukee News publishes the substance
of an interview with ex-senator Matt
Carpenter on the subject. He says it
is his opinion that Grant will be the
candidate of the Republican party for
q third term, and he can see no posi-
BILE way of avoiding it. The circum-
stances not likely to occur" to which
Grant alluded in his third-term letter,
are occurring, and affords him the exact
pretext ne wanted. Carpenter does
not think the protested opposition of
some Republicans to third term will
have any weight in the National Con-
vention, and that he will be repomi-
mated. The ex-senator also predicts
destruction to Grant and his party,
which, considering that he is member
of that party himself, i, candid adj
mission, and augurs ill for the great
gift-taker.
