Especial to the II. Louis Republican,
srRINaFIEp, Jan. l5.-The members oil
the legislature are on slippery ground in
more senses than one to-day. For several
DAYS the streets have been under thin
crust ct snow. and last night and this
morning drizzly shower fell and super
laid the snow with glade OF slick ice
The way the Legislative dignity tumbled
and rolled about the streets leading to the
capitol was sufficient to humble the ideas
OF the least ambitious civilian.
THE SENATORIAL QUESTION
Was the sll.absorbing topic after to-day's
adjournment, and the canvass wakes
warmer and warmer each hour. Ihe
trains bring in hundreds of passengers
from every direction who are taking
lively interest in the campaign. The
chief politicians are very quiet, aud seem
to keep up powerful thinking as to
what move is best TO make in order 10
put their respective candidates ahead.
On the senatorial question there seems
to be doubt whether Senators Riddle
and Haines and Representatives Reed
and Roche, Republicans, will act
with their party under Logan.
The doubtful Democrats are supposed
to be Senators Frantx and Jones and
Representatives Glover, Conkrite and
Sexton. The senate Anderson lndepen
dents are Brown, Glassiord, Harold.
Parish and Plumb. The house or Davis
Independents are Representatives Al
bright, Allen, Ashton. Heron. Jack ant
Plnney. These twenty noating vote
will have to decide the senatorship. i
all the members of the general assembl!
are present in joint session on Wednes
day it will require 1903 votes to elect
The lowest possible number is iifiy-two
or majority ola quorum.
EXPLANATIONS WANTED.
The Republicans, who are tenaeiou
about the rights OF the Industrial classes
are demanding public explanation iror

the law either house will be able to de-
feat the election of President and rem
der new election necessary, without
taking the responsibility Of contra
vening the letter OF the law. After the
counting Of the vote of Louisiana, If it
is ever connted, there will remain to be
counted the votes of some twenty odd
States, and hardly more than two weeks
time to do the counting in. II the
House should resolve to defeat the work

the States would not be exhausted be-

Curious Antique Collins.

In the year 1857 an old burial ground
was discovered 10 Shelby, England, by
some persons who exhumed several COT
fins. These collins were formed OF the
trunks Of trees split In two and followed
out. One Of these, now preserved in the
museum at York, contained the skele-
ton Of a woman, and near the neck were
lying seven beads Of graduated size and
oval shape. In the centre OF the skull
a small, round hole was detected, re-
sembling the perforation In the skull Of
a Roman lady, recently discovered in
an old cemetery at York. In the sum
mer Of 1876, on the rebuilding Of a house
in Shelby. some fifteen or twenty other
tree collins were discovered. They were
closely packed together at depth from
five to eight feet; and at the head Of
several an upright oaken post three feet
high was standing. In four out Of seven
collins examined, hazel rods or twigs
were found in the right hand Of the
COrDSe.

First it was Judge" Abel. Secretary

now we read in the dispatches of the

Cavanac's testimony. We apologize to

Honing his honored name in connec-

In contact with Radical perjurers. He

though he figures in the papers as

posing Radical frauds, will never cease
TO be appreciated by this community so
long as Its remembrance of its suffer-
