AFTER A CONTINUOUS SESSION or TWENTY
EIGHT HOURS THE SENATE PASSES
THuRMAN's RESOLUTION, AND THE
DEMOCRATS ARE VICTORIOUS.
Special to the st. Louis Republican,
WAsuINoToN, Noy. 27.-At half-past
three this afternoon the continuous ses-
sion since u o'clock yesterday was
brought to close by the passage OF
Thurman's resolution, the vote standing
90 TO ". The session to-day was dull
and monoton0us, the speech OF Conkling
at three O'Clock this morning being the
last event to arouse any excitement.
From that on the struggle was merely
one of human physique and as all sides
were weared and all that could be said
had been said senators lolled about the
chamber answered to roll calls OF which
there were torty.ninc in all.
' COMBINES SPEECH,
which was IN impromptu effort, is pro.
nollnced by all as one OF the best Of bis
life. He spoke about an hour, and made
more reasonable argument against
Butler, on the ground OF his connection
with the Hamburg affair than has ever
vet been made IN or out of the senate.
without waving the bloody shirt, he held
up the massacres in Edgeiield and L.au.

they affected the election of the Iegislas

Noticeable after Conkling's speech was
Bayard's, in which he alllded to the OK.

saying that things had been charged by
senator's against man who had no voice
in the chamber, and which the same sena.

he would at some time from his place in
the senate again refer to the indiScrml-
nate charges.

fresh from their homes looked down up
on the weary senator's who had all
through the night been in the close air Of

however, as TO the question OF privilege.
Republicans will claim that Kellogg g
case is OF higher privilege, but The
Democrats will probably prevent Wheel.
er from deciding the question by moving
to lay upon the table, which motion in
the senate does not dispose finally Of a
subject. This being carried they will
move to swear in Butler, and then debate

 We think that the communication in the last Enquirer by ..Dickey," in regard to the religious movement, was calculated to give wrong impression, and we fear will hurt the feelings of our North Corn wall friends. who have so kindly assisted Dr, Waite in the meetings. We have heard from no other source of the exist euce of any jealousy pn the part of the christians of South Cornwall.
 Rey.C. Fitch has occasionally preach : ed for us and Mir. Dwight Pratt has ta- ken charge of the Young Peoples meet ing and their labor has been appreciated. In regard to the conversions, we would say that there have been about fifteen. and is it very deplorable that they are so young? They are among the most re. spected boys and girls of this community. and have long life of usefulness before them. The good work has by no means closed. and the young peoples's meeting is we'll attended and we hope mvch good may yet be done. DAMON.

Presidential Prospects.


 The general expectation now is that Hayes will be declared elected President, sometime next week. Louisiana seems to present asstronger moral, but a weaker legal case for Tilden than Florida. The throwing out of votes by the returning board in the former state was enormous in quantity and fraudulent in design, but their right to throw out votes has been sanctioned by the Supreme Court of Louisiana, while the like action. on the part of the Florida counters, was decided illegal by the court of highest resort in that state. It appears, too, that the de- cision of the Commission in the Florida case leaves just room enough between the count of the canvassers and the certificate of the governor to cast out -Cronln. of Oregon. There is nothing else between Hayes and the presidency.
 It is not surprising. perhaps, that there is disposition on the part of some of the Democracy, in case of Hayes success be- fore the Commission. to throw matters into the chaos out of which that Commis- sion has taken them. They say that the Commission has only proved to be another President of the Senate, counting the face of the returns and declaring the nar- row, technical result. They look back reluctantly at all the lost labor of com mittees. searching for truth in the ''dis- puted states" The spectacle of fraud ulent Counting Board slowly tortured by Mr. David Dudley Field scarcely affords the satisfaction it did when it was sup posed the revelations of the examination might influence the Commission.
 No doubt it would have been to the advantage of the Democratic party to have MT. Hayes counted in illegally by the President of the Senate, rather than legally by the Commission; but would it have been for the advantage of the coun- try? Plainly the country needs peace and certainty, not doubt and discord, and war or rumors of war. If the Democrats are the patriots they claim to be, they should show it by decently submitting to the inevitable.

fcers on the sixth of December last; that their official duty was confined to the act of voting for President and Vice Presi- dent on that day, and the sending of those votes to Washington; that. having performed that duty, their term of office was at an end; that no subsequent legal or legislative proceedings in Florida could affect the legality of the votes thus cast; and that the Commission, exercising the powers of Congress, had neither the right to institute Quo Warranto proceed ings to try the real title to the office, nor the time for such trial had they the right.
 The Democrats maintained that al- though the Florida vote had been cast before legal proceedings to attack the ti- tie of the electors de .facto had been con- cluded, the weakness of their title had been ascertained before the votes were counted, and the mistake of the Return ing Board should be corrected by the Commission. They argued that any other view would make the power of State re- turning boards over the electoral vote su- preme and irreversible. even in case of fragrant illegality, fraud. or corruption
 The Commission, by strict party vote of eight to seven, adopted the Republican view of the law, ruled out all the subse- quent proceedings in the Florida courts and legislature, and reported in favor of the Hayes electors.
 There is much force in the Republican argument that second count of the face of returns, which give the Tilden electors majority of less than a hum dred on total vote of near 50 1000. would be only the substitution of one techni- cality for another. They claim that on a real trial of the merits of the election they could easily overthrow this small appar- ent majority. Still we cannot but think that the decision of the Supreme Court, and the subsequent action of legislature and courts. at least upsets the 20rins0 facie title given the Hayes electors by the first count. Such is certainly the moral if not the legal aspect of the case.
 But however individual opinions may differ about the correctness of the decis- ion of the Commission, we ought to be thankful that the great case is having calm and thorough trial before as inn partial a tribunal as could be obtained, and that there IS no longer any danger of dual administrations and perhaps of civil war.

 Union Hall has passed into new hands, it's principal owners, being Messrs. D. and W. Burnham, and has
 been for some time undergoing repalrs which will soon. be com pleted. It has received new seats, some twenty seven settees, made in Winsted. May it's public spirited owners be well repaid for the improvement they are making.
 -Burnham,s Hall has also received some 100 chairs within the past few weeks. greatly increasing it's seating ca- pacity." This also is great improvement.
 The "mock trial' proved a success. Before the hour for it's commencement had arrived, the house was full to it's ut most capacity, the door was locked and a great many were obliged to go away. The trial was interesting. Mr. D. Kinney was foreman of the jury. At 11:15 the verdict was given in of ''Not Guilty" The audience had lots of fun out of the affair. Probably another trial will come of in few weeks.
