Washington Letter.


WASHINGTON, d. c., April %. 1881.
The Democrats seem absolutely unable to
comprehend the motives and reasons for
Senator Mahone's course III voting with the
Republicans. Senator Butler devoted almost
the entire day in the Senate yesterday in an
attempt to. prove that corrupt bargain was
made between Senator Malone and the Re
publicans. After so many lamentable fail
ures in a like attempt by other Democrats,
the failure of yesterday was really lpdicrous.
The Senator gave seventeen reasons to prove
that a bargain was made, the last Of which
was as follows: The reason assigned for
the coalition was toat the Senator from Vir-
ginia was in favor of free ballot and fair
count; gives the real reason why bargain
does not exist, and why Senator Malone
votes with the Republicans. The salvation
of the South rests here. to that party who
will secure TO its people its free and ultram-
meled suffrage, viii bring 70 il prosperity,
and no true friend Of the South car act with
the Democratic party, as long as il persists
in the methods of the last twenty years. No
Republican objects TO Democratic ascendency
in the South. provided it is the result of free
and legal elections. ut which Republicans and
Independents are allowed. without fear Of
outrage and murder. to vote their sentiments.
1t is not love for the South that induces
Southern Senators TO charge Mr.. Malone
with bargaining or to break him down, il is
not friendship and regard for the Southern
whites that induces the leaders TO drive from
the polls negro Republicans. II is hatred
for the North and love of personal aggran-
dizement. The South has natural aGvanta-
ges of climate, soil and minerals, second to
none in the world, but just SO long as the
Fundamental principles of free government
political freedcm--is denied men there,
just so long win industries anguisli. hear
this Spring that t1e exodus of negroes is

ever before, and that commercial powers
South are spending much money trying TO
stop it. But money cannot buy assurance.
II was reported at the Capital to-day that
the star route "ring" are going to open fire
on the administration, that they will charge
that mail contractors were assessed last year
to raise money for the Republicans in In
diana at Garfield's request. and that the latter
knew how the money was to be raised The
rumor also alleges that other attacks will be
made on the President, some of them going
back some wears ~ 1sfMO
The Senate committee ON Foreign relations
this morning referred the Morgan resolution,
declaratory of the Monroe doctrine, TO Sena-
tor Burnside ss subcommittee. for him To-
consider. and report il back at an early day.
Senator Burnside is an open advocate Of the
resolution. aud will therefore report it back
favorably.

New Era Of Good Feeling Inaugurated. |
On the first. page Of this weeks

for Ns to add. When Gen.
Rice first suggested this excursion we
believed that if carried out it would be
the means of fosnaing many pleasant
between the people OF
lola and Fl. Scott. Thus believing, we
were anxious that it should prove q
pleasant affair and success in every
respect.
Aided by the united effoEts Of our
best citizens, arrangements We're made
to care for one hundred and fifty guests;
the Kansas City Opera House Band
was engaged at considerable expense;
q grand ball arranged for, and social
entertainment for those who could not
attend the dance.
Owing to the fatigue Of the excur-
sionists and the excessively hot
weather many did not 60 to the hall
where they were to be assigned as
guests, and some of our best citizens
were thus disappointed in not receiy-
ing them after. having made every
preparation to entertain. But as this
was the only error made, possibly we
were more fortunate than is usually
the case, as all well understand that
on such occasions more or less mis-
takes are naturally to be expected.
The excursionists were met at the de-
pot by Mayor, and City. Council, and
representative citizens of lola, and the
Opera House Band, and escorted to the
Opera House where they were welcom-
ed by the Hon. Jno. w. Scott in be-
half of the citizens of lola. Gen. Rice
responded in appropriate terms
