The House OF Lords.
From London Tralh.l


That the upper chamber will not long
continue TO exist in It's present form can
hardly be matter OF doubt; indeed, 1t has
OILY existed up TO now because there has
never been q Democratic House OF Com
mons. II the Irish disturbance bill was
thrown out because It remotely seemed to
imperiI the rights OF landlords, is ii likely
that the drastic legislation in regard to land
which Is impending will meet with more
favor? With the exception, perhaps, Of
about twenty or thirty peers. the entire
body Is In antagonism with the po-
Itical views entertained by the ma
jority OF Engiishmen. l am not say
ing whether the peers are right or
the majority is right, but II they differ 1t
can hardly be supposed that the latter will
not overturn the former. The question will
then arise whether tw0 chambers or one
chamber is the more practical solution OF
the Parliamentary system. Much has been
said, and much more may be said, on either
side. Probably the most workable Constl-
tuition for Anglo-Saxons Is that ofthe United
States, ia which an elective Senate, the
members of which are elected for different
terms, 30 that there Is never one general
election Of the entire body Of senators, ex-
ercises legislative and executive duties.
Were we 10 adopt such an upper chamber
the colonies as we'll as the mother country
might be represented liz II, which would
greatly tend 10 the consolidation 81 tee Em-

[Chleogo Times, EdlloriaI.l


There has not been, from the beginning
to the end OF the series of Conclave enter
tainmen,s, single unqualified success.
Failure, eXtOrtion, laundering, swindling
have been the main features OF everything
which has taken place OF an official ma
ture, and which had been arranged in adj
vance. The grand parade was at once q
partial failure and complete swindle on
those portions OF the city which have done
the most to give the Conclaye a financial
foundation. The exposition affair was a
confidence game, pure and simple. 1t was
not simply confidence game, hut it was
most disgraceiul One-one In which
there Is net q single palliative feature.
The competitive drill was still another
operation which is disgrace TO every man
who had anything TO do with it in an official
capacity. IL was swindle i'm that 1t asked
Communicates to compete in one way and
then, at later date, forced them TO compete
in another way, and one for which they had
not the time TO prepare themselves. IL was
a most disgracefu affair in that there was
no provision for water, whereby visitors
were obliged to pay for something 10 quench
their thirst. 1t was still further gross, in
excusable swindle in the fact that people
who held tickets were bulldoZed at the
gates, and TO the number OF thousands were
compelled to pay for their admission TO the
grounds.
There is no use in parading all the details
OF this affair, ard inviting attention to those
which are in the nature OF complete or par
iial failures. 1t is much more easy to state
the humliatng fact that not one OF the
promises OF the Triennia Committee has
been fulfilled. OF the gorgeous hopes
which were excited, there has not been
single one realized. All that remains for
Chicago so do is TO purge itself as far as il
can OF any participation In the outcome,
and 10 place the blame where it properly
belongs, &e.

HALIFAX.

DISCUSSION BETWEEN COLONEL SIMNs AND Mr..
PAUL-HALIFAX TRUE AS STEEL.
Correspondence of the Richmond Dispstchl
HALIFAX COURTHOUSE, Va, I.
August 90, 1880.
This has been great day for the national
Democratic party in this county. Colonel
William Il. Simms, OF Pittsyivania, met
Senator Paul in discussion, and the longest
day be lives Senator Paul Will remember the
discussion at Halifax Courthouse and the
chivalrous son of PittsylvaDia.
Colonel Simms opened the discussion in
a speech Of an hour and quarter, and was
followed by Mr.. Paul in a speech of the
same length, and each had half an hour for
rejoinder. Colonel Simms made an able
and logical speech. He avoided all efforts
at demagogical display, and held undivided
the attention OF one OF the largest au-
diences have ever seen assembled at this
place. His speech was listened to with the
closest attention. His ventilation OF the re-
cord Of j. II. Stovall was whitening In the
extreme, and his criticisms OF General Ma
hone were simply unanswerable.
Mr.. Paul is undoubtedly fine, popular
speaker, hut he lodged every issue raised by
Colonel Simms. His applause was confined
mostly to the negroes and few Radicals.
The speech OF Colonel Simms has done
great good, and the true, solid people feel
proud OF their orator and the cause he 80
boldly espoused. NIAT0R.

The Democrats Of Virginia bave two COM

branches OF the Virginia Democracy d'v,uc

A daily paper in this city lately made a
remarkable statement to the effect that II
the two Democratic electoral tickets nomi-
mated in Virginia remain in the held until
November the vote OF that Commonwealth
will surely be cast for Garfield. Seeing q
prospect OF such a contingency, the jour

a cry OF alarm and calls for renewed and
united efforts 10 secure doubtful States
"If these tickets remain in the field I'LL

General Sherman's Letters to Han
cock.

WASHINGTON, August 23.-Tbe demand
which has been made upon General Sber-
man from all quarters for the production OF
his letters to General Hancock, written IN
December, 1876, during the presidential
crisis OF that year, has at last had the de-
sired effect, and the letters are to be given
to the public in an authoritative way. Gen
eral sherman said to-day that the letters
had been sent by him to the publishers OF
a forthcoming life OF General Hancock,
with the concurrence OF the latter officer,
and that they would appear in this volume
in connection with the letter written
by General Hancock, already made
public General Sherman declined, how
ever, to furnish copy OF bis letters to
the press in advance Of the appear
ance of this life Of General Hancock, but
said he thought public curiosity could wait
few days longer for the letters to appear.
There is very great interest felt in these let
tiers not only by the politicians OF both par
ties, but by army officers, who somehow have
got the impression that General Sherman
was very free in expressing his views about
the presidential election OF 1877, and that
the publication OF his letters will create
some ll.feeing towards him at the White
House. These letters and General Ian
cocks answer will constitute an interesting
chapter in the history OF the settlement OF
the presidential contest four years ago.
