HOW CONGRESS WORKS.

They are pitching right into business in
Washington. Beck and Voorhees, in the Sen
ate have moved toward such legislation as will
reegate the trade dollar to the company of
the dollar of our fathers; Blaine has opened
the political game by the introduction of the
resolutions which are hereto appended; Fer
nando Wood attacked the Presidents message
in the House, said it showed sighs of weaken
ing in presence of the bloody shirt, was vacll-
lating and unworthy of that Good man; Gar
field came to the Presidents rescue; Cox
pitched into Garfield; Hale replied to Cox and
old Martin Townsend referred to Sammy Til
dens CIPHER kilograms And so the ball Is
begun. Blaine's resolutions read as follows.
Resolred, That the Judiciary Committee be
instructed to inquire and report to the Senate
whether at the recent elections the Cons3ltu-
tional rights of American citizens were viola
ted in any of the States of the Union, and
Whether the right of suffrage of citizens OF the
United States, or of any clsas of such citizens,
was denied or abridged by the action of the
election officers of any State in refusing to
receive tt err votes or in failing to count them,
or in receiving and counting fraudulent ballots
in pursuance of conspiracy to make the law
full votes of such citIze .s of no effect, and
W. eSher such citizens were prevent from
exercising the elective franchise, or forced to
.,se it a -a;rst Their wishes by violence, or
reats, or hostile demonstrations of armed
men or other organizations, or by any other
unlawful means or prsctlces.
ResoIred, That the Judic;a AIRY Committee be
further Instructed to inquire and report
whether it is within the competency of Con
gress to provide by additional legislation tor
more perfect security of the right OF suffrage
to citizens of the United States in all the
STATES of the Union.
ResoIred, That in prosecuting these lnqul-
ries the Judiciary Committee shall have the
right to send for persons and papers.
OF course these resolutions will open up the
whole Southern question and 81 We us some
politics for the next campaign.

urday:
1t was reported by telegraph Thursday last,
saws the Cherry Greek Independent of the 23d
that Ed Hanlev got into a row at a horse
race on the Muddy and was shot dead Ed.
Hanley was a former resident of Ward-was

He moved to Hunter at the time that place
took start and stayed with it until it went

stay left in search of fresh fields, since which
time we have lost track of him until the pres

ELIZABETH, N. j., Sept Sat 8 o'clock
yesterday morning Oryille Grant was taken
in private carriage and conveyed to the
Insane Asylum at Morristown. This was
deemed necessary by his relatives, his
friends and his family physician, DR.. ]. B.
Morton, as measure to prevent chronic in
sanity. For some months past Mr. Grant
has exhibited signs of mental alteration,
and his custody was advised soon after
they began to appear, but his friends and
family were sanguine of his recovery and
were 10th to adopt such apparently harsh
measures But the difficulty seemed rather
to increase than to improve, until at length
the necessity of treatment became too APP
parent to be neglected Mr. Grants pecu-
liarities of mind run in the direction of
gigantic speculations and corners on stocks,
merchandise, etc. He recently purchased
in Boston, it is said, an enormous quantity
of wool with view of cornering the mar
ket but acted so strangely that the sellers
refused to deliver. He talked of buying
million or more sewing machines for the
same purpose, and did contract, it is said,
for large number, which was not deliv-
cred, for the reason given.

New York, Sept. SIN an interview at
Windsor VT, Mr.. Evarts said that Ex-
Governor Tilden's prospects for renomi-
nation are very poor. He thinks the Re-
publican speakers in Maine and Ohio have
followed the wisest plan in giving great
prominence to the financial question and
saying little about Southern topics.
He says General Grants name is one Of
great authority in this country, and will
continue to be so. 1t must depend upon
the events of the next two years whether
he will become of Importance again in party
politics as a standard bearer Of any party
He says the National party will have no
lasting strength, because it has no basis of
idea, and the Republicans are weary of dis
cord and are moving in the discipline Of
harmony.
