ator Hampton, on the Kellogg
Spofford contest, were the rule
instead of the exception, it would
be much better for the south. 1t
was a calm, dispassionate review of
the rights of the case, and not of
the policy or prejudice Of the situa-
ton. He based his argument only
upon two grounds; u the case has
already been decided and ~ it can
not of right be opened. These two
premises are all that is needed to
combat and defeat the arguments
of the opponents of kellogg.
The precedents Of a thousand
years, the very highest principles
of our social economy, unite to
say that cause once tried by the
chief judicial power, and lost, is for-
ever lost. A man who had lost his
case before the supreme court of the
United States would be considered
the monumental fool of this age of
fools if he should attempt to reopen
it in a Justices court. And yet
this is exactly what the democrats
in the senate attempted to do, and
there may be found many who sus-
tain them in their course.
The constitution declares that the
senate, or house Of representatives,
has the right to decide upon the
qualifications Of its members. A
former senate in accordance with
this provision determined that Kel-
logg was elected and had a right to
represent Louisiana in the upper
house. Now not only is the senate
the judge, but it is the sole judge of
this, and when it thus decided no
power could reject that judg-
ment. If it was otherwise
no senator could be secure in his
seat because every time the majority
changed it would be in their power
to throw out every member of the
opposition and thus disfranchise
those states whose majorities were
of a different complexion from thai
of the governmental party.
This position assumed by Hamp'
ton, Bayard and one or two Jesse
democratic lights, renders it IN
necessary for the republican side 0
the chamber to say anything, and
beside one or two speeches, none
will be heard. They might say
much of those peculiar circum.
stances that led to that situation in
which a democratic senator wa:
possible in an overwhelming repub'
lican state but it is already known
and no time need be wasted ii
order to expose it. 1t is a disgrace
to all the ideas of civilization
and humanity, but enough has beer
said of it. The facts are vel
known to every one, and if the
American people choose to SO forge
the traditions and faith of theil
ancestors as to countenance such ar
undisguiSed persecution for princi
pies sake, it is their own fault.
The CHRONICLE thought long
since that right upon the brink of q
presidential election, the democrats
would not, even with their talent
for fatal blunders, unseat Mr.. Kel>
logg, and time has only confirmed

Sermons Heard by Telephone.

On Saturday last telephone was placed
in Plymouth Church, the transmtters be-
ing at the back OF the Mount of Olives
reading desk, and connected with the resi-
dence OF Mr.. Alfred e. Beach, Of New
York, brother of Moses S. Beach, and
with the house of Mr.. Henry Pope at Eliz-
abeth, N. J. Yesterday morning, before
the congregation assembled, gentleman
tried the instrument, saying to Elizabeth :
81 am standing six feet from the trans
mitter, can you hear ?" and the reply
came back, 1--WE hear you Distinctly"
With the residence of Mr.. Beach in this
city equally satisfactory communication was
assured, and Mr.. Beach enjoyed the SER
mon by wire. Mr.. Weld, the sexton Of
the Church, shook his head gravely when
speaking of the introduction of the tele-
phone. "I am afraid" said he, "that
this will be the end of our prosperity as,
church, for who will pay 5000 for u pew
when he can have a telephone and listen to
Mr. Beecher in his own parlor ?"
The experiment in the morning was
reasonably satisfactory. The line from
Mr.. Beecher's church to the central Office
in Montague street. Brooklyn, was strung
at the suggestion and expenses of Mr.
Beach for the purpose of the experiment.
AT. Mr.. Beach's end of the line five re-
ceivers were attached to the wire. Mr..
Beach's line from. the central Office to his
house was not in perfect order and so Mr..
Beecher's words came over the confused
wires with the signing of winds and occa-
sional noises like sharpening saw. When
Mr.. Beecher thumped his desk (under
which the transmitters were securely a
sudden croaking as Of a frog sounded over
the line. However, with occasional inter-
ruptions of one kind and another great
part of the mornings sermon was distinct
ly heard at Mr.. Beach's house. The
singing by the large choir and the playing
of the organ were distinctly heard

Bound to Win.

Down in Chester county they have a
queer way of doing many things, and
among those queer things is the auctioning
off the repairs of the township roads.
The other day the public roads in East
Bradford township were sold for three
years, and are to be kept in perfect order
during that time. Three years ago the en-
tire public roads of the township brought
$3.50, but on Monday about So, ESQ was
realized, or gain over the last sale of 3d.
500. 1t appears John NJ. Hildeburn and
Aaron Davis were competitors for certain
piece of road, which at the sale three years
ago brought $40. They commenced bid
ding at this contract at the above figure,
and gradually came down to nothing, when
Mr. Davis said he would give one cent for
the privilege of mending and keeping it
in repair for for the next three years.
This stirred up Mr.. Hildeburn's mettle,
and he said that he would give dollar,
and SO the contestants crossed each other
alternately until the contract was knocked
off to Mr.. Hildeburn for the sum of SO.
The laugh comes in just here, inasmuch as
the lucky purchaser will be compelled to
keep the road in good repair for the next
three years and pay So year for the priv
ilege of doing so, and also pay his share
of road taxes in the bargain. This mode
of doing business is novel one and the
first of the kind on record but what's the
use, mettle will tell.

A Strange Suicide

Stephen Pillsbury, aged thirty, was
found almost decapitated yesterday in his
fathers barn, at Chelsea, Mass. The in
strument Of death was a perfectly executed
guillotine, which the ingenious suicide had
probably spent month in manufacturing.
The machine consisted Of two perpendicu-
lar pieces of the joist about two feet apart
and reaching from the floor to the roof Of
the barn. About six feet from the floor
had been adjusted in piece of wood a
large, sharp axe, so that it moved up and
down in a groove. This axe was held in
its place by water-pot filled with water,
attached to lever, which in turn was
made to support the axe. A hole had been
made in the waterproof, SO that when suffi-
cient water had leaked from it to over
come tho leverage above the axe would fall.
When all arrangements had been made the
young man got upon his knees, with ether
to his month, and awaited death.

eB- Near Lampases, Texas, farmer
named Reuben Comet was sitting with
his family around a fire, at 8 o'clock at
night, when lightning struck tall tree
near the ..rcof of the house, ran down the
chimney, and descended into the group,
tearing everything to pieces. George, boy
of fourteen, was struck on the temple and
instantly killed, the lightning lacerating
his foot and tearing his shoes and clothes
to shreds. The entire current struck An
ma, little girl, on the top of the head,
and passed down through her body, but
she was not killed. The father and the
youngest daughter were knocked senseless,
but both recovered. Mrs. Comet, who
had been out visiting, came in and found
the whole family spread out on the floor.
