The Republicans complain bitterly of
the absence of Sharon from the Senate,
who represents the rotten borough of
Nevada. The seem to forget that he
bought his seat in open market, paid for
it in hard coin, and therefore has a right
to do with his personal property as he
pleases. They made Nevada State to
secure two-thirds majority in the Sen
ate, without the least regard to popula
lation. To-day the population of Neva
da is hardly one-half of the ratio for a
Congressional district, and Jones and
Sharon of San Francisco can offset
the votes of Herman and Conkhng, who
represent five millions of people.
The day of retribution seems to have
come sooner than was expected for all
the vicious legislation and ruinous rule
of the last twelve years. The Republi-
cans manufactured States for partisan
nse, and the borough Senators are
either specializing in San Francisco or
legislating for their silver mines inWash-
ington. Y. Sun.

Mr.. Bayard's Remarks.

After the ali night session, about twelve
O'Clock yesterday, Mr.. Bayard is reported
as having taken the floor Oh the Demo
cratic side: "Mr. Bayard said a good deal
had been SAID to-day and charges had been
made against the Democratic party. The
Senator from New Hampshire said there
was desire on the part of the Democratic
party to exclude from the country the facts
contained in three large volumes of testi-
mony taken nearly year ago The hon.
orable Senator knew that the testimony
was not taken in the case of Mr.. Butler
1t was taken by committee of the Senate
called into existence and which passed out
of existence before any one had any idea
that the present case would ever come be-
lore the Senate. For all the just purposes
of this debate the Senator IN light as well
have sent to the Clerks desk HOrces'eF'S
Dictionary, ana had IL read by the Clerks.
He was ready TO test the gu stion whether
the usage of the Senate had become an
abuse. He would not prevent any man
from speaking his full mind, had he the
power to do so, but no one had the right to
lntiict upon the Senate the reading of use
less documents. When he (Mr Bayard) }
first came into the Senate there We're but
nine Senators belonging to the party with
| which he acted. They had never attempt
ed dilatory motions, but had they acted in
manner as witnessed here Tonight for tn
purpose of delay the majority would have
| put them down.
Mr.. Edmunds asked ifs the Senator re-
membered, along about 1850 when Mr.. JEFF
| ferson Davis and Mr. Soule and some 9TH
| ers occupied the Senate whole night by
having messages of the President read
Mr.. Bayard said he did not remem Der
| that time, though it may have happened
Resuming his argument he said this was
| a motion to discharge the Committee on
Privileges and Elections from the further
consideration of the credentials in Mr..
| Buffers case and 1t would not do for the
| Senator from New Hampshi1e (Mr Wad =
| leigh) TO make the allegation that the Sem
| ate did not want the facts. After the COM
mittee shall have been discharged, the de-
bate upon the merits of tho case would go
| on and all the facts be brought out. He
| then referred to statements in the Senate
| to the effect that ou TRACES had not been de-
| nounced by the Democrats, and said it was
| well known that he had repeatedly de-
nounced them. He hardly knew how To
answer such statements. He only knew
| that no man on this floor should make @
charge that he would not make in private
| conversation.

The WAY OF THE WICKED Is HARD,
While the Republican, of this city, is
weeping bitter tears over the quarrel be-
tween the rascals of its party in the Sen,
ate, the Philadelphia Telegraph (Rep. }
takes the matter more philosophlcally,
and puts the case thusly:
Senator Patterson yesterday dared the
thick-and-thin Republicans who are clam
oring for Kellogg's admission to bring
up the case of the moribund PinchbacE
again. Edmunds, ''that giant" of Yer
mont, was reminded in an unpleasant
way of the persistency with which he
had voted against Pinchback, while Pat
terson himself had been equally persis-
tent in voting for Pinchhack. And he
expressed his readiness to vote for Pinch
back again, if some Senator who had
voted against his admission would only
be so obligng as to move reconsidera.
tlon OF the case. But he met with nc
response. Pinchbaek, alas has gone
over to the Democracy without any quail
lfications, and even the Republican Sena
tor who has since been so sorry that he
voted to keep him out was not ready tc
oblige Mr.. Patterson.

SPEAKER RANDALL's VoTE.-In the
reports OF the voting of the Pennsylva-
ma and Philadelphia delegations in

1t is hardly the fair think to say that "the
Phlladelphia members, ercept Mr.. Ran
dali" and Mr.. Kelley voted against the
bill and it is hardly fair, either, to re-
port Mr.. Randall as not votinr,n He is
Speaker of the House, and it is not the
custom for the Speaker to vote excent
When there IS ga tie" or where his vote,
II given, will change the result. When
ever either of these contingencies occur,
his vote will be found upon the record,
and upon any matter of public honor, or
economy or honesty, it will be pretty sure

was not required to vote, as there wa.
enough honest votes without his. TIL,

THE speeches of Senators Patterson
and Conover in the Senate on Monday
were of higher order than the people
were prepared to expect. They were
very severe upon the Republican Sena-
Tors who evidently hoped to use the votes
of Patterson and Conover to aggrandise
themselves and defeat the expressed will
of the people. Both Patterson and Como
yer declared they had always been Re-
publicans and expected to continue Re-
publicans but they knew Gen. NJ. c.
Butler, of South Carolina was man o.
unblemished character; that the people o.
that State, without regard to party, want
ed him TO be their representative in tn,
Senate, and as honest men and judges O
The members of that body, they were de
termined to vote for him. The imperiou
manner assumed towards these gentle
men by Messrs. Edmunds, Hoar, Cenk
ling and other Radical leaders in th
Senate was so offensive as to disgust
number OF their own friends.
