Ex-GoV. KELLOGG owes his admission
TO the Senate entirely to the excitement
which has been caused during the past
week by the action of Senators Patterson
and ConoVer. In the Republican caucus
held about two weeks agoit was discovered
mat there oOds no undI,tnlity Of opinion upon
me question OF his enthusiastically. Y. Tribune.
We have very little confidence Ill any,
thing the Tribune says, yet it is the opin-
ion of many that delay and inaction on
the part of the Democratic Senators has
been :he cause of their defeat in prohib-
iting the seating of the impostor Kellogg.
The Democratic party in the Senate has
plenty of strength in intellect, but lacks
in leadership. There are pretenders in
plenty, but in a real leader of consum>
mate ability it is deficient. We hope one
will be supplied otherwise king caucus
will have TO be invoked. We do not
want to see the party lash used as it is
by the Republicans. But we deny the
right of Democrats to refuse to support
the party when its policy does not suit
their personal views, to use its discipline
upon others when they differ. Insubor-
dination in the officers will produce it in
the rank and file.
The triumph of the Army Ring is now
followed by the triumph of the carpet
bag triumverate in and out of the Senate
-ConoTer, Kellogg and Patterson. Aid
ed by Davis, of ILL.,, they have had the
audacity TO make fight against the Ad-
ministration and nti-Administration
Senators, and 10 defy and beat them in
voting in body against the Democrats,
AID thus make their victory over HAYES
and his Cabinet and Stanley Matthews
and his followers a success. These three
men are scoundrelS, if we believe what
IS said of them by their own party, and
yet they are the masters of the situation,
Ot all the members of the Senate the one
who lacks independence most is he who
claims to be independent par erceEence.
Kellogg may now snap his fingers at him
as "a dead cock in the pit" One of the
most disgusting features of this govern
ment for the last decade has been the T..
5. Courts. Its scandalous decisions, on
and off the bench, and its juries (negroes
and whites) summoned to convict, are
enough to freeze out all former faith in
1t as dispenser of exact and impartial
justice. Let it be given a wide berth.
Organize associations of arbitration, and
in this way make its affections productive
OF blessing that will save money and
vexation of spirit.

Congress, on March Is, 1862, passed an
act III which "the United States pledges
It's faith TO make provision at the earli-
est practicable period for the redemption
OF United States notes in coin" and on
January IA, 1879, day was fixed for that
purpose. The paper dollar is now worth
" cents IN gold, and represents n weight
OF about Twenty-Five grains of that metal

cent. during the last two years. and nearly

ana there is no apparent good reason
why II should not soon become of the
1uIl standard value, when both the paper
and the gold dollar will be an equal mea-
sure OF value for the rich and poor alike.
The Government and the banks of the
country suspended specie payment ON
Dec. -, 1851 and il is believed that the
national banks will cordially unite with
the Government IN restoring the true
standard OF value whenever the acts OF
Congress referred TO shall be carried into
effect

THE PRESIDENTS NoMINATIoNs.-
While the CORES pondent OF the n. Y. Her.
aid says all the nominations that were not
confirmed by the Senate at the extra ses-
sion will be sent in again to the Senate in
regular session, others hold another opin-
ION. The correspondent of the Sita, of sat
urday, says: "There is much difference
of opinion as to the tenure OF Office act. 1t
has been held even in Johnson's time, by
Lyman Trumbull and others. that in the
event of failure of confirmation the Presi
dent loses the appointing power for vacant
Off ces.
The Administration and anti-Adminis-
tration Senators are agreed, however, on
the point that the same names cannot be
sent in at the next session. Mr.. Conkling
has to day and tonight fought all motions
for an executive session, all of which have
come, by the way, from the Democratic
side"
An executive session was held on Satur-
day afternoon, when the appointment of
Mr.. Fitzsimmons, of Ga, a Democrat, was
confirmed, and one or two others. This, it
Is said, was effected in oppoiition to Mr..
Edmunds.
1t is said that Senator Edmunds would
not have made the report in the Fitzsim-
mons case at all, but would have smother
ell IL In committee hal he not thought the
republicans would vote solid against him.
On Friday he learned that Senators Como
yer and Patterson intended to vote for the
confirmation of Fitzslmmons. He then
wrote Il letter to the President acouainting
him with this fact, and suggested that the
withdrawal of the nomination of Fitzsim.
mons would remove one great obstacle in
the way of harmony between the Presi-
dent and Republican Senators. The Presi.
dent did not respond 10 this suggestion,
and as Mr.. Fiizsimmons has been confirm
ed his case need no longer be an 'obstacle.
Another report is that should the Senate
and House. by concurrent resoluti q. ad.
journ sine die before noon to- morrow the mo-
n.inations fall, but should the special session
run INTO the regular session Ii ey stand be-
fore the Senate in their present shape. The

WHAT SHE HAS OBTAINED BY
PRAYER-HER METHOD OF EN-
HORrING SINNERS

Amanda Smith, a colored woman who
of revival meetings in the Centenary
Methodist Episcopal Church in Newark.
She always addresses white people.
In appearance she is tall and muscular.
She wears a plain dress shawl, and
Quaker-like bonnet. There is II great
novelty about her singing and exhorta-
uon, and hundreds attend her meetings
out of curiosity. Many of them are SAID
to come away with sober thoughts after
experiencing change of heart. Aman-
da holds an open Bible i'll her hand, reads
passage latter passage and comments
eXtemporaneously thereon, using eX-
tremely simple language land illustrating
her meaning by apt and pungent anec-
doteS.
Amanda has thoroughly experimental
upon Tyndall's prayer test. She says
that God gives her everything she asks
for, He has given her a building lot at
Ocean Grove, has clothed aud fed her,
and has placed her in an envlable posi-
uon III Christian organizations.
That being the case, would it not be
well for President Hayes to get Amanda
to pray for enough gold to pay Off the
national bonds and greenbacks. Inas-
much as the debt was incurred to free
the negroes, Amanda might with all
propriety undertake this work by way
of gratitude to the Republican party, to
keep which in othce the war was contin-
ued from year to year until peace was
restored by the withdrawal of the army
by Mr.. Hayes.
