F0rty.SIxth Congress.

"WEDNESDAY January q. Nothing was accom-
pished in either branch Of congress except inter
minabe talk in the senate over the Baird resolu-
ton and in the house over the Buckner bill So
much oratory in one day was hardly INDUCED In
since our fathers established our independence;
nor, II Is safe to say has 40 much froth resulted
from It, The proceedings OF congress since Its
re-assembling have been OF the least possible in
terest to the general public, and never has the
public welfare been so little regarded.
THURSDAY, January 22-Both Wednesdays
and Thursdays sessions Of the senate were
mainly consumed over Senator Bayard's resolu-
ton deprving United States treasury notes OF
their legal tender qualities, with little or no
progress. At the conclusion of Thursdays ses-
sion the senate ad journed over until Monday In
the house Judge Buckner's bill, requiring govern
ment banks to keep half their revenues in coin,
was forced for consideration without debate, and
was mercessly strangled by vote Of two to one
A resolution was adopted directing the secretary
Of the interior to inform the senate what grants
OF public lands made by acts OF congress to rail-
road companies or to states or territories in aid Of
such companies, remain incomplete by reason Of
the failure OF the grantees or bcneciaries to COM
ply with the terms of such grants.
FRIDAY, January 23-There was no session Of
the senate, and in the house but little was ac-
complished, save a general discussion, in which
occurred notable but bloodless passages at arms
between Sunset Cox Of New York aud Iorr Of
Michigan, and between General Hawley and
Greenbacker Weaver The rest OF the day was
consumed over private bills.

Edmunds' Turn.
again.

Entirely regardless of the quality or meas
ure of ones service as legislator and states
man, when for any cause he is brought
prominently into notice the headlights of
party are turned upon him and the fish
womans vocabulary of epithets is hardly
sufficient for the occasion. And now it is
Senator Edmunds' turn. The Cincinnati
Enquirer-chafing doubtless, under the we'll
understood fact that Senator Thurman 10
the fast personal friend of Senator Edmunds,
and will do all in his power to secure his
confirmation should he be nominated as
Judge OF the supreme court,-spurts out its
partisan malice as follows q We fear that
he will be confirmed because there are
half dozen or more mean-spirited Democrats
in the senate who will either vote directly
for him, or make it convenient to be sick or
absent when the vote is TO be taken. Ed
munds must first carry the committee on
appointments, which is composed of ma
jority Of Democrats, before his case comes
before the senate. We call the attention of
the Democracy of the country to the fact
that Edmunds, a deep-dyed federalist who
has approved of every outrage that has
been committed by the federal government
for the last fifteen years, is now asking Dem
ocratic senators to make him United States
Supreme Judge. There is not a
man in the senate who has stronger inclina-
ton to arbitrary power and greater con-
tempt for the rights of the masses than this
same George F, Edmunds, and yet there are
Democratic senators who intend to vote OF
dodge vote in his favor We ask the
Democrats who make and unmake United
States senators to keep sharp eye on theil
senators when the case of Edmunds comes
up for confirmation"

Dedication at Richmond.

The new Unversalist church at Richmond was
dedicated on Friday last. large number Of
people were present, Burlington being especially
well represented. The services were opened with
music and reading of Scriptures by Rev. s. c,
Hayford, the pastor, and Rev. l. G. Ware of Bur-
lington, the latter Offering prayer. After the
singing of the thirty-third hymn, Rev. J. Edward
Wright spoke on mot power, but holiness"
taking for his text Luke K: 90 Notwithstand.
ing in this rejoice not that the spirits are subject
unto you, but rather rejoice because your names
are written in heaven" The discourse was clear,
forcible practical full of truths worthy the con-
slderation of any church, and was highly COM
mended by all. Rev. Mr.. Iiayford spoke OF the
work that had been accomplished in the last few
months by the parish, and especially Of that
done by Henry Gillett, ESD chairman of the
building committee Besides aiding largely with
his money, Mr.. Gillett has given nearly all of his
time during the past six months to the overseeing
Of the blilding; and, on motion Of the pastor, "A
vote of thanks was given him, It was also stated
that the house, costing about $1,000 is paid for
and the parish is free from debt The morning
service closed by singing The Lord is my Shep-
herd" when refreshments were served in the
vestry.
