us the proper means Of adjusting differences
between gentlemen. Ex-senator lamar should
challenge him, his (Uonkling's) friends Fay
that in such event his course will neither be
eOwaTdly nor beneath the dignity Of his POSI-
tlOn. On side Of political circles proper, the
scene has ereA'ed a good deal Of gossip. In
front Of the Hotels last night the kunnels,
majahs and Judges were assembled In force
discussing the the several to- les Of "honah"
'1he eo,le," and ''blud." UGcUurse thereis but
one opinion among this class, and that Is that
Senator Lamar has the best Of the position,
and that II Senator Conkling does not chal'
lenge his adversary he must go down TO pos
terity as q coward. AT to-day's session Of the
Senate the two belligerent Senators attract
cd all eyes. The galleries rapidly filled up.
Senator Conkling continued TO lead the fill
clustering Republicans. He demanded the
reading Of the journal 1t was only in part
ready, and he objected to all other business
until 1t was ready. The democrats expect to
get quorum Of their own members on hand
during the coarse Of the day, but as Senator
Conkllng remarked "when they do, we (the
republlcans) will flud other means Of prevent
ing action on the army bill until debate is
allowed" The Republicans insist that the
only terms upon which they will desist from
dilatory tactics is an agreement by the demo-
Gratis that unlimited debate shall be allowed
1t is understood that senator Chandler has n
red hot stalwart speech he wishes to unload,
and that Conkling himself has one, aimed at
the administration generally, and Secretary
Sherman in particular, for what he will claim
is Its policy OF concession to the Democrats.
Society circles here are somewhat exercised
over "a scandal in high llfe," which involves
the beautiful daughter of a wealthy and aris-
tocratic family, who has formed an affection
for her fathers coachman, a Ia ex.Gov. Hnb-
bard 5 daughter, Of Connecticut, and more re-
GENTLY the case in New York. The coachman
in this city is handsome, hut illiterate. and
the family Of the young lady ranks high for
culture, wealth and antecedents. The father,
when warned by friend discredited the story
until, upon investigation, he found numerous
letters from the cuaehman addressed to his
wayward child. During an interview about
the matter the young lady's mother tainted.
| Despite paternal diligence the twain planned
an elopement which was interrupted by the
appearance of the father while they were on
their way to the minister's. The coachmar
was discharged and the young lady trans
ferred to her fathers country residence. A
young physicians to whom the girl was en-
gagged to be married, has been so affected by
the knowledge Of the facts that he is nearly
crazed, and has, by the advice Of his friends
started on n voyage around the world. For
obvious reasons the names Of the parties are
suppressed.
