seems, struck one Of the "tall young men"

A JOTTING by Jennie June: "The
scene in the courtroom grows inexpressi-
bly, sad as the days go on. Mr.. Beecher
has aged fearfully. He looks twenty years
older than the last time 1 saw him at the
public dinner in New York ten months
ago. His gray hair hangs long and loose,
his face is haggard, his eyes suDken-he
looks, indeed, like the embodiment Of that
dragged edge Of despair which he has pic
tured. Mrs. Beecher alone preserves her
calmness, her serenity and dignity. Her
white face, framed in its whittier hair, has a
set look, but no outward exhibition testifes
10 the agony within"

SENATE CHAMBER Nashville, March
10, IST5.-The following appeared in your
paper of this date:
'.In yesterdays UNION AND AMERICAN,
the name Of Mr.. Boyd was inadvertently
omitted from the list Of Senators who voted
against Mr.. Haynes motion, by which the
strength of the Reputation sentiment in
that body was tested, the day previous.
Neither house contains a staunCher friend
of the State credit than Mr. Boyd
The object Of Alr. Haynes motion was
not to test '1he strength of the reputation
sentiment in that body" and the under
signed, who voted for that motion, did not
so understand It. They are not friends or
advocates Of reputation; and since the ar
ticle referred to places them in an attitude
directly opposite 70 that which they occupy
on this question, they ask this coTec-
ton be made. Yours, etc,

What the Legislature Did About
it Yesterday.

On the 25th Of last month, the Neg Or
leans Times published a communication in
regard to the election of Mr.. Johnson to the
United States Senate, and intimated, edi-
tOrially, that money had been freely used
to secure him the support of the delegation
from Shelby county. This naturally ex-
cited a good deal Of indignation on the
part of the gentlemen Immediately con-
cerned, and the matter was at once
brought TO the attention of the Legislature.
A resolution was unanimously adopted by
both houses, expressing belief in the limo
cence of the accused members, and de-
nouncing the charges as altogether ur-
founded. Here the matter rested, and,
perhaps, nothing more would have been
said or done about it, but the Times had its
blood up, as the following article, in its
issue of the 18th inst, will show:

Narrow Escape.
[From the Brooklyn Argus.l

From the Brooklyn Arbus.1
Mr.. VIM. Line, the Mt. Washington
signal operator, who was thought to
have been exposed to the cold and storm
of last Tuesday night on this mountain,
has turned up all right, although he had
a narrow escape from fearful death. IL
appears that he was able to keep the
path, but when about three-quarters OF
a mile from the top became thoroughly
chilled by the cold and driving storm.
Fortunately tor him there is o small
house at this point on the mountain side,
and getting down on all fours, after q
long and desperate effort, he succeeded
in reaching it. Having but a single
match in his pocket, and Knowing that
life depended ON starting fire, one can
imagine his feelings as ne, having placed
kiniling wood In the stove, attempted to
ignite it. The attempt proved successful
and he was saved. He stayed In this
house from four o'clock Thursday after
noon until the next morning at ten De'
fore he dared TO start again for the top
of the mountain. The people in that vi
cinity turned out in large numbers to
hunt for his supposed frozen body.

The New York Press ON the Mess
NEW YORK, Dec. 8.-The Herald, COM
menting on the Presidents Message,
says: Its views in the main are sound
and indefensible. The President Is
sound on the Cuban question, on finan-
ces, on the questions afecting
cable monopoly and on the Mexican
question. but ON the combined re-
ilgious and school question he is wild,
Ouixotic and utterly absurd. This at
tempt to introduce religious con:
trolling element in our National
politics is most mischieyous ana mon
strous violation OF fitness and propriety
ever perpetrated by President OF
the United States. On the school
question he anticipated Speaker
Blaine's proposed amendment to the
Constitution, and makes some very com
mendable propositions, but others are
made to make political capital.
The Times approves the message, and
considers it sound on the school ques-
tion. although the propositions made In
that connection are not within the prov
Iince Of Congressional legislation. !.
The World, Democratic, believes the
school question is brought up simply TO
secure third term.
