Tho South carolin. senator.hip.

The republican or Nackey Legislature
went through the form of electing United
States Senator yesterday, the choice falling
Attorney. 1t is not probable that he will
ever take his seat as Senator. There are
too many sound republican lawyers in the
federal Senate to admit member whose claim
has SO little foundation. The Mackey House
has never had o quorum and therefore no
right to participate in the election of Sena-
tor. To be sure it does not depend on tho
courts of South Carolina, but on the Senate Of
the United States, to determine whether Cor
bins election is valid; but the Senate must de-
eide with reference to the State constitution
The point of law involved is SO clear that the
ablest republican Senators can have but one
opinion upon 1t. We assume that the Senate
will reject the claim of Corbin on the ground
that he was not elected by valid Legisla-
ture /; but this decision cannot be reached
until some time in March, during the extra
session of the Senate But the Mackey
Legislature meanwhile exists by frail ten
ure. 1t is already on the point of tumbling
10 pieces. The democratic Senators will
probably secede tomorrow, and it
is expected that some dcsertions from
tho other side will give them a
quorum, when the regular Legislature will
be fully organized, Wade Hampton inaug-
untcd and a democratic Senator chosen.
This result may be facilitated by the fact that
the democratic members are getting their
pay, while their rivals are mover likely to
receive q cent until after they shall have
taken seats in the Wallace House.

Maine and Nova Scotia, while aDother, with
q central pressure of only 1928 inches, is
rapidly advancing over the lakes. Thewin-
ter storm belt is thus agitated by frequent
storms which cause extraordinary alter
notions of temperature throughout its
length. For instance, at North Platte
the temperature has ranged within a
few days between zero and sixty-two
degrees above, while at other points
the changes have been still greater. Yester-
day morning snow was falling along the
storm track from Pembina to Halifax, and
in the evening in two areas--one in the
Northwest and the other in the Northeast.
The wind at New York varied between five
and twenty miles an hour as the depression
moved eastward, while the temperature sem
sibly rose toward night. To-day the weather
will be cloudy or partly cloudy and warmer,
probably with light snow toward evening.

Flremen at tho Theatres.

The orders which Mr.. Eli Bates, Chief Of
the Fire Department, has issued, and which
will be found elsewhere, will be read with
interest by the public. We congratulate the
Fire Department upon the promptness
with which it has acted upon the advice of
the HERALD. 1t has, in the first in
stance, ordered thorough investiga-
ton of all the theatres in the city,
and the experienced fremen who are
intrusted with the inspection are di-
rected to report as soon as their important
labors ore finished. In the second place the
Fire Department has detailed some of its men
for duty at the Union Square Theatre, and
they are instructed to remain on duty from
the time the doors open till they shut. All
theappliances for the extinguishing ofa spark
are to be supervised and every precaution
taken. We are glad to learn that the Union
Square Theatre and the Fire Department
have adopted this prudent measure, which
will 90 far to restore the confidence of the
public. All the other managers should fol-
low SO excellent an example. Theatres
are really not as dangerous rs is supposed,
but when fire does occur it is likely to be
disastrous. Churches frequently are quite
as unsafe, but a church is generally open
but one day in week, while n theatre is
open six nights. Yet the accidents to
audiences in American theatres are not as nu-
merous as many persons believe. The burn
ing Of the Richmond Theatre and the Brook
lyn Theatre is without any parallel. Still
the absolute importance of better protection
is comprehended by the people who trust
their lives to the guarantee Of manager,
and the measures taken by the Fire Depart
ment will meet the hearty approval of the
cop, m nifv
