House Is hereby extended 70 the unhappy
laboring class OF ireland in its effort to
effect a reform In the present oppressive
tenant system prevailing In that country.
Sympathy was also expressed for the peo-
pie Of France in their bereavement by the
death OF Madame Theirs.
Mr.. Lowe asked leave TO offer resolu'
tion recitng that the laws Of certain States
regulate within their Jurisdiction the ex-
ercise OF the electoral franchise, and that
such regulation, particularly in the States
OF Rhode 1slARd, Massachusetts,, Pennsyl.
Vania, Delaware, Virginia and Georgia are
claimed to be restrictions on the electoral
franchise, and providing for the appoint-
ment OF committee to examine into mat.
tiers relating to the exercise OF the electoral
franchise In several States as far as the
same may be In violation Of the Constitu.
ton.
Mr.. Morse objected.
A discussion OF the electoral resolution
followed, and Mr.. Davis, Of South Carolina,
having charged the Republicans with
fraud In 1873, Mr.. Reed said the Demo.
cratic party had got into . condition on
the subject OF fraud which might be
termed chronic. Il reminded him oil a
dog which he once owned, which after
getting thrashed would rub his ear and
growl, and then rub his nose and growl.
He hoped that time would cure the
Democratic party as It had cured the dog.
He was dead. [Laushter.l II the
Democratic party had in its in.
most heart ever believed that idea
of fraud in connection with the election Of
70, 1t ought to have presented 70 the peo-
pie at the last election, s. ]. Tlden, the
ablest and keenest man who belonged 10
that party. Never had there been baser
thing In the history Of the country than
this "irAudn business which has been re-
vised by the gentleman from North Caro- |
lima, Davis. It had been born In sin |
and conceived in iniquity. The country
bad become satisfied that the only fraud
which had occurred had been found in
the cipher dispatches. 1t was useless for
the gentleman to endeayor to revive that
issue before the American people. He
denied that the vote OF Louisiana had
been counted on forged certificate. Mr.. |
Davis reiterated his statement, and after |
some further debate the subject was drop |
ped and the House adjourned.

JAY GOULD having secured control Of
The western outlet from Pittsburgh, the B.
and o. has been shut out, and the chances
now are that some attention will be given
to the extension OF the Hempfeld east
from this place. Washington, Pa, Rtport;r
Of yesterday.
We do not know where'the Reporter got
this information, but as it is generally
careful in making such announcements
we have no doubt that it has some author,
ity for its statement. However, we take
the announcement with the proper amount
Of reservation for the present. We do not
well see how the B. and o. railroad could
be suddenly headed of in its long cher
ished plan Of reaching Chicago junction
from Pittsburgh, but, Of course, such an
occurrence is quite possible at the hands
Of bold strategist like Gould, who opsr
ates with nerve aud celebrity that sets Al
defiance all such hesitating old fogies Al
Mr.. Garrett. II the news is true, 1t Il
important only in one sense. It will
soon revive the talk OF complet
ing the HsmpGeld, and we shall
probably see a divided sentiment herea
bouts and in the coke regions as to the
policy OF waiting on the movements oi
the B. & O. Company, the same as in the
past. This Is TO be regretted, for even Il
the Company were to really seriously
mediate the completion Of the Hemp6eld
line, they would pursue their old policy o.
waiting to trade and dicker about every
little detail, as they always do under suct
circumstances, before entering on th'
work. This, too, Notwithstanding th'
TACT that the Company know that there Il
agreat deal Of money to them in an outle
from the coke fields to the West. The re
cent report Of their Connellsville branct
shows that their revenue from coke OF
that short line during the fiscal year wa
SslS,444 %. Imagine then what It woulC
be had they an outlet to the West owe
their Chicago line from this city. Imag
Inc also from this showing the profits tha
would arise from the building Of an indie
pendent line from this city to the COX
fields, which would not only supply al
the coke now used hereabouts, but vast
ly increased consumption, and in addition
create a coke depot here for the supply G
all points accessible by the Ohio and Mit
sissippi rivers.
