The approach of the close Of the session Of
Congress had already rendered any legislation
upon the tariff improbable, but it is none the
less gratifying to record the vote of the
Ways and Means Committee yesterday that
1t will not consider at the present session any

New-York tribune., 1879-05-21

The Senate has passed the Legislative APP
preparation bill, after refusing by strict
party votes, to strike out the clauses relating
to the test oath, the method of drawing jurors,
and to interference with the deputy marshals
and election supervisors of the United States
The Democracy will now calmly walk up to
be gOred by third veto.
New-York tribune., 1879-05-21

The Tenement House act has unfortunately
been so delayed that it is now in position
where single objection from an in
terested person or from some enthusiast on
parliamentary law can stop its progress. Two
honest attempts were made on Monday to press
1T forward in the Assembly, one by DIR. Hayes
and another by Mr.. Strahan, and both were
defeated. Cannot something be done to push
this excellent measure TO final passage1
New-York tribune., 1879-05-21

Yesterday increased the proposed Commission
TO revise the tax laws Of the State TO seven
members, and named Mr.. Thomas ). Creamer
by q majority vote as one of them I That the
bill in this new and grotesque shape has been
finally approved by the Senate and returned to
tbe Assembly for cOncurenceP This COmms-
sion should have been composed, and was com
posed, as originally named, OF men of excel
lent ability and special familiarity with ques-
tons of taxation. The withdrawal OF Mr.
Wheeler's name and the substitution of that
Of O. b. Potter weakened the Commission
somewhat but good work could still have
been expected from it. In the Senate, how
ever. there was combination between certain
Republicans and Democrats to add various
farmers and retired lawyers to the list, ap-
paIently for the same reason that politicians
press their friends for clerkships III Custom
House or municipal bureau. Other Senators
were naturally led to suggest their friends
for places, but the combination carried the
day. Only a minority of the Senate seem
to have been struck with the idea
that these places should be filed with
men of technical knowledge and conspicuous
ability. The spirit which animated the ma
iority may be inferred from the statement
of Senator Pierce, that Mr.. Creamer was " q
"young man of great promise MIR. Pierce
said nothing about Mr. Creamer's performance
in the past" who had given much attention
" to matters Of taxation" If the many cor
porations which are anxious to evade the in
creased taxation which just revision of the
laws would impose had devised this method
of defeating the whole scheme it could not
have been better fitted to their purposes, and
il will not cause the new movement to seem
anv more inaocent to find Mr.. Sessions and
Mr. Ecclesine so prominent in it. The Assem-
bly, should reject the amendments, and if the
bill goes to the Governor in this shape, he
should spurn it with contempt.

1t should not be forgotten that this action Is
due to the stand taken by Fernando WOOD
early in Che session against the eXpedency OF
all such legislation at this time. Mr. Noou
has thus rendered the country genuine
service, and it should no: fail OF recognition
The Senate has passed the Nassau street
bill, and it only remains for the Assembly 10
approve of the measure Ill its amended ioiin'
The dispatches hold out the hope that this
will be done. The motion to recOmmlt the Dill
to the Assembly Railroad Committee Hlght
have proved fatal to 1T, Tor II d'u
not provide that the bill should retain It's place
upon the calendar, but General Sharpes Vlsl-
lance prevented this. The motion to recon-
NIT was carried by small majority, but II Is
believed that the Railroad Committee will do
Justice to the measure, and that it will pass.
1t augurs i'll for the repute OF the closing
days of the Legislature at Albany to fnd Mr.
Loren b. Sessions playing so prominent
part upon the floor of the Senate as he has
done in the last few days. Every man who
is at all familiar with the political history Of
the State, knows what the record OF Mr..
sessions Is, III tne lODDy anu OuC VI ~, anu
knows also that it was a great mistake ever
to have sent him to the Senate-a
mistake which his constituents are not
likely, let us hope, to repeat. The
honest Republicans of Chautauqua and Catta-
raugus deserve to be represented by differ
ent sort OF character. The Republicans OF tte
Senate should take care now, however, to
have it understood that in his elevated rail
road and other schemes Mr.. Sessions repre-
sents himself, and is not representative
Republican. Mr.. Sessions has been deco
rating TIE TRIBUNE with his abuse; probably
THE TRIBUNE can survive it. But the good
name of the Republican majority may not be
able to survive Mr. SesSiOns's offensive prom
inence in questionable projects in these last
days of the session, when the jobbers reap
their harvest. One man could give bad
name to whole Legislature. and there is one
man in the Senate who may do it, If it is not
clearly understood that his Operations are
solely on individual account.

black tulle, embroidered with jet beads
The inside is Of tulle, trimmed with g

There can not be any established fash
ion for the manner of dressing the hair

wearer, Out there are always some styles

way of arranging the hair at present is to
have it fiat on top of the head with
crimped bandeaus in front. In the even
ing bands of she'll or metal in Grecian
style may be worn.
Two riding habits may be made in the
following manner: The first is of green
cloth. The long skirt is without fullness
on top. The waist is made into a short
basque in front, with two cores. A bias
band is taken around the basque from the
front to the seam under the arm. The
back is cut "tailleur" shape, and forms a
flat position, which is very narrow and
short
The sleeves are long and have cuffs
buttoning on the outside; the collar is
small and straight; the lingerie is plain
white linen. The silk hat worn with
this riding-habit is half high, has the
brim turned up on the sides, and a tulle
scarf trimmed with lace around the
crown, The other riding-habit is of black
cloth. The half-long waist has basque
slightly cut up below the buttons in
front. 1t is very high in the neck, and
has small, high collar. The sleeves are
long, perfectly plain, and very tight
fitting. A row of stitching initiates the
revers. That is not as high as mans
hat, but the same shape. 1t is trimmed
around the crown with gauze torsade.

On the side Of the Democrats the
presence Of strong sympathy has been
declared from the beginning. On the
side of the Republicans there has been
more inclination to coax back Green
hackers, and. to show how nearly
related they are to the Republi-
cans, than lis creditable to the Re
publican party. Putting together
this circumstance and the evasions and
omissions which marked the discussions
of the subject by Republicans Of whom
better things might have been expected,
we must admit that the Ohio victory has
little political significance. 1t settles
nothing. 1t simply confirms the distrust
created by the course Of the Democratic
majority in Congress. 1t does not inspire
confidence in the courage or capacity of
the authorities to whom the Ohio Rcpub-
licans are accustomed to look for leader
ship when financial questions are in dis
pute.

Jeff. Davis's Winifall.

\ correspondent of the St Louis Globe
Democrat has had an interview with
Mortimer Dahlgren, nephew of the late
| admiral, and Il half-broiher of Mrs. Dorsey
of Mississippi who left large estate To the
ex-head rebel. Mr. Dahlgren's account of
the relations of Mr.. Davis to the family. and
the influences that We're brought to bear on
his half-sister, is not very tlattering TO Mr..
Davis.
Early in 1877, says Mr. Dahlgren, he was
induced TO leave New York, where he then
was, by Mrs Dorsey, whose husband was
dead, and go South and take business charge
of her affairs at Beauvoir. This is beauti-
full estate in Mississippi, on the gulf shore.
When he arrived at Beauvoir he found jeff.
Davis there, and acting as if in charge. Ills
wife was in Europe. jeff. spent most of his
time in writing or in conversation with Mrs.
Dorsey he helped her with a book she was
preparing, much of which she probably wrote
at his dictation. Even after Mrs Davis re-
turned to this country Davis spent but lit
tie of his time with her, but remained at
Beauvoir. In little time he began to un-
