oPectot Correspondence Of The oasrRvnp
WAsnSeroN, D. G., May 20, 1880.
The condition of the appropri-
alton bills is such that adjourn
ment on the 3lst, the day agreed
upon by the House, will be en-
tEeiy practicable. The Senate
will mqnestionably adopt the
House resolution. Senators are
even more anxious than Repre-
sentatives to get away.
Mr. Bayard's Deputy Marshal
bill will undoubtedly pass the
Senate to-day, and tie House ON.
Saturday or Monday. 1t will
reach Mr. Hayes on Wednesday.
the 10Th, perhaps. He can APP
prove it, veto it, or allow it 10
become a law by doing nothing
with it. The bill is substantially
a reproduction of that part OF
the Immediate Deficiency bill
which led to a veto two weeks
ago.
Gen. Gordon, U. S. Senator
from Georgia, has resigned.
Gen. Joseph e. Johnston, Repre-
sentative from the Richmond.
Va, district, some time since in
dicated that he would not accept
a denomination for office. These
are two Southern men who serv-
ed gallantly and conspicuously
III the Confederate army land who
have, as representatives Of por-
ton OF the country, given their
time and influence to the bust
ness of the country. Like all
Southern men,-and patriotic
Northern men, for that matter
these men are proud of their
States, and jealous in the defence
of the rights Of States. / have
watched their course carefully,
and do not know of a vote or a
word in the record of either, while
in Congress, that either might
wish to obliterate. They are of
the best type of American cit
liens.
The great boat race of yester-
Gay, between Hanlan and Court
ney, was not much Of a race.
Hanlan had everything his own
way and the hundred thousand
people who witnessed the perfor-
nance came away, without ex-
ception, impressed with the idea
that Courtney feigned a greater
portion of the sickness given by
him as a cause for his ignomin-
ious defeat. Thousands Of dol
lars changed hands, and those
who bet on Courtney are loud in
their denunciations of his cow
ardice III giving up SO easily. Ii
is said that he was SO nervous
that on the night before the race
he didn't sleep a wink. Much
indignation is felt by Hanlan's
friends at the action of Riley in
Dullinoe over the course ahead of
HanIan, and as an outcome of
this feeling a race is not improb-
able between Hanlan and Riley
on next Wednesday. Riley is
not afraid of Hanlan and would
make him work harder for bis
money than Courtney did. Ham
lan's friends return home laden
with attn" as the results of their
champions success. MCKAY.

Stripped of all yerbiage the

borrowed the money, but the
money has been unwisely expen-
ded by our agents. (2) We can

pay the money borrowed, because

not be sued. (3) The money
having been unwisely expended
by our own agents, the creditors
should suffer all the loss. (4.)
1t is equity to plumber a bloated
bondholder on general principles.
(5.) 1t is an act Of charity as
wei as a matter Of justice to
pluck a capitalist, who has no
more common sense than to loan
money on such thin security as
the honor and good faith of. the
people Of Tennessee. (6.) If
we did not plumber this foolish
capitalist, somebody else would
plumber him.
