The MITCHELL WAR CLAIM. - Four
Southern Democratic Senators recorded
themselves against the Mitchell cotton
claim on Tuesday-Coke, Hill, Ransom
aud Morgan. There are, however, TWEEN
t7-tbree Democratic Senators from the
South, and there will be moro after March
4. The Southern votes against the bill
wore almost equa!ized by those of North
ern Democrats in favor of it, including
Grover Of Oregon, Hereford of West Vir-
giuia and Voorhees, OF Indiana. Further
more, just as many Democrats voted for
the claim as voted against il, so that the
measure was killed by Republican votes.
1t should be remembered that it was
proved in this Mitchell case that for three
years the claimant furnished commissary
stores for the Confederaoy.

book he was perusing, with vacant
stare, aud said he, II would like TO know
upon what authority Ihey are isJuingN
these four per cent. bonds" Thinking
he misunderstood me. | repeated my
words. but he paid no sort OF attention,
only turning to his deputy, he said,
Here is an Interesting serief OF acts and
resolves on the financial question. passed
BY Congress, which you will do we'll to

his want OF attention, when person
present significantly put his hand to his
forehead and looking first at me and then
at Cove, gave me TO understand that Cove
is a monomaniac on The financial question,
and to be piticd rather than blamed for
his manners. 1 have since learned that
whether y. the State House or at his
boarding house, he wants to talk OF moth
ing else bat bonds, fiat money, greenbscks
aud currency. His wife complains, so |

financial issues. and grave fears are en-
tertained that unless his mind can be de
verted from the subject, it may become
permanently disordered.
