Anderson. the convicted member Of
the returning board Of Louisiana, was
q senator in the legislature of that state
for about twenty-eight years in unbrok-
en- succession. He was . democratic
senator for some sixteen years before
the war, and q Confederate senator for
four years during the war. and then q
senator with democratic proclivities for
the eight years that followed the war.
While Henry Clay Wormoth was Cow
ernor of louisiana, Anderson was one o:
that peQlniar class of politicians known
as armoth Democrats" Since that
-hAs called higself republi-
&lerson was -e a. lucky
r. -..-:--sas.--s-A. The hands
of the visiting star. Their ma.
nipulations brought L u. 20 grief and
to rum. As he looks up from his fallen
condition to the high 2laces now occu-
pied by his seducers. how bitterly he
must curse Hayes. Sherman. Motthews,
Stoughton, Noyes. and the rest of them.
A Detrsit widow occupies a
cottage under the shadow of a
church steeple, that is supposed
to be in danger of falling should
a high wind blow. At midnight,
short time ago, the wind blew
fiercely, so she got up and dress

and dressed them, and folding
her arms remarked: " If that
steeple falls and kills US, people
will know we were a respectable
family. George, you brush up

The number of people who have been
killed during the Chinese rebellions and
wars is awfully enormous. During the
past rebellion in the northern provinces
the aggregate is estimated among the
millions. These Chinese atrocities are
Of the most horrible description. At
Monas, town of kasEgar, the Chinese
trooIs recently massacred $4,000 men,
women and children with the most ap-
pallIng outrages. A robber chief, who
routed the government forces. is said to
have massacred 600, 900 helpless victims
in one day. and few days afterward he
butchered 400, 900 females. He was not
long after shot by one of his own men.
These figures are SO enormous as to
seem incredible. and make one suspect
that they love to extol even their barba.

The SeuaIe had another excited executive session

The calendar proceeded with quietly at first, and
q number OF the Senators left the Chamber, not sup
posing that business OF any special interest
coming up. When the nomination Of Mr. billiard,
OF Georgia, to DO Minister Brazil reached,
the minority report OF the Committee Foreign Rc-
lasions called up. and Senators Hamlin, Conking
and Howe, who constituted this minority, subjected
Mr. Hilliard's character to most extensive airing,
going ovcr period Of nearly twenty years The ma
jorsy OF tho committee who urged the confirmation.
were Senator Matthew'S, republican. and the four dem
