ugly little old uncle he is.
Each State glided gracefully
and swiftly after the other;
even Colorado, without a sin
gle trip, till Florida, with her
roses, her flags and her five
counts, jumped out of TIE box.
Then the bar dome Of the lof-
ty Field at once scared in mid
air-the image of the Kaiser
William, with his nose lens
gthened. He objected. OF
course he did. That is what
he came from New York for.
Then Senator Sargent object
ed to him. And Kas>on OBJ
jected to something else.
Then the Senate thought it
time to go home: and it went,
and the counting went over to
another day. At half-past 2
o'clock the crowd spread
through the avenue into the
sunshine, so transcendent, so
life-giving, and in the sun
bath met the President and
Buck, we'll fed we'll bred and
content. It was none of their
count.

THE FLORIDA DECISION.
IN. O. Democrat

~. ~. DCAioCil0'I
At late hour last night we
received the intelligence that
the Electoral Tribunal have
decided that the vote Of Flor
ida shall be counted for Hayes
and Wheeler. We are not
informed as to the ground
upon which this decision was
reached, and cannot, there
fore, express an opinion as to
it's merits. The case seemed
clear one to us in favor of
Tilden and Hendricks, but i.
is shown from our Washington
dispatches, for a week past,
that the opinion in Washing
ton has been that the vote Of
Florida would be either coun>
ted for Hayes or thrown out,
and bets were made, Of three
that it would be counted for
Hayes, to five that it would
oe thrown out. 1t would seem
from this that there was all
inherent weakness in the case;
and, for the honor and Gre dit
of the Supreme Court Of the
United States, we trust that
Was so, and that the decision
is d fair one. Otherwise, we
are left to the conclusion that
members Of that court, who
were really the arbiters in
this great cause, have descen-
ded to the level OF pothouse
politicians, and dragged their
robes through the filth of
Radical fraud and partlsanism.
The Louisiana case will
probably be referred to the
Commission to- day. We shall
watch the action of the Com
mission in this instance with
intelligent eyes, and if it is lii
truth animated by the base
and degrading spirit Of par
tisanism, it will be the duty
of the Democratic member
to withdraw from the DELHI
erations Of Tribunal which
has 1isgraced the Republic.
and show a disposition to try
one Of the greatest causes re-
corded in,history in the spirit Of
shysters, and in the interest of
a wicked and infamous con-
spiracy against the liberties of
the country.

gain by being massed, and the
United States Senate never
looked better than when it
appeared two by two fling
down the central aisle of the
House of Representatives on
Thursday morning. They
were preceded by the hox-
bearers-two men carrying
mahogany boxes, in which
were locked the precious
votes which are to decide the
fate Of eighty thousand Office
holders and five hundred
thousand ehce-seekers. Then
came Vice President Ferry
and Secretary Gorham, follow
de by two clerks Of the Sen
ate.
In some instances the Sen
atorial couples looked oddly
paired, again fifty paired, ac-
cording to temperament. For
example. the ruddy Welsh
cheeks of Senator Jones were
wonderfullybrought out by the
Indian lines of Logan, whose
arm he held. Roscoe Conk-
lin Was thrown into relief by
the whitened crown of Sargent,
of California. Blanche (what
a name for a man y Bruce
looked like a cocoanut beside
the milky Conover, the Pen
nsylvania doctor from Florida
Blaine looked twenty years
older than he did FIVE years
ago, in that aspect outdoing
Conkling, who is beginning to
freshen and brighten up again
Edmunds took a back seat !;
Booth, the beautiful, fell to
whispering. The great Frel-
inghuysen lifted up the light
of his hereditary countensnce
on the GRAPHIC artist, and
condescended to indulge in a
slight pursuit Of knowledge.
Randolph Tucker and David
Dudley Field began to COM
mune, and Simon Cameron
dropped into the ears Of his
son Don a few of tn ose mighty
secrets of MISUNDERSTANDING
your nest-with which he is
supposed to be richly laden.
Martin I. Townsend, of Troy,
exchanged jokes over his
chair with Fenton, trotted his
grandson on the end of his
toes, and munched apples.
Elder Cannon, deprived of tie
companionship of his four
wives, did likewise, to the
wonder Of the English specta-
tor. IF they could have add
ed their gingerbread, peanuts
and pipes, bis amazement
would have been complete.
Alone, unassisted, following
his illustrious mates, came
Morton, the rand unweeping
jeremiah Of the occasion.
There was no time to pray-l
take it for granted-as the two
tightly chockered chaplains OF
the front seat were not called
on. During his mcumbency
