slavery extension, a party antagon'
| iStic to the South, and believing in
] centralizing powcrin the federal gov,
ernmcnt, controlled by the executive
department.
Having devoted halfOf the present
volume to the exposition of the
causes which led the South to desire
a separation from the federal gov
ernmcnt, Mr.. Davis proceeds, in sew
eral chapters, to defend the right OF
secession. In justification of this
right. he quotes largely from Web
Ster, Calhoun, Douglas, Greeley,
Seward, Benton and Clay. In main
tanning that the compact between
the states was of the nature of a
con federation, he draws largely for
the basis Of his argument upon the
debates in the constitutional cOnven-
tiOn of 1889, and tortifies himself
with extracts from "StOrey on tho
CONSTITUTIONS" Eliott's debates, and
Bancroh's history. lie refers to the
memorable debate on the purchase Of
Louisiana. when the venerable Josiah
Quincy. of Ma, sachuse'ts, asserted in the
house of representatives that that act vir-
tually dissolved the union, so that the
ates were freed from their obligations,
and should prepare for peaceable or torci,
b separation. lie gives the history of
the adoption of the 10th amendment to
the constitution, by which it was provided
that "the powers not granted to the Unit
ed States by the constitution nor prohib-
tied by it to the states, are reserved to the
states respectively, or to the people" He
vindicates the right of secession as per
fectly compatible with the constitution
and claims, besides, that the general gov
ernment has no richtful power to prevent
it The question, he maintains, rests W th
the people, from whom all power is de-
rived.
Arriving in the latter part of the first
volume, at the period when hostilities
commenced, the narrative makes rapid
progress. The author refers to Northern
protests against coercion. lie maintains
that the South did everything in its power
to 90 out of the union peaceably and qui-
ety. lie takes friendlier view of Lin
coin at the beginning of his administra-
ton than of his compeors in the federal
government He speaks Of Lincoln'S In
augural address, and says that Lincoln
did not so far violate the traditions Of his
country as to defend coercion, while ar
guing against the right of the South to
secede, and stating that be would use force
to protect United States property. Mr..
Lincoln's inaugural led the Southern peO-
pie to hope that separation would be
brought about in peaceful manner, and
among the arguments with which he sup
pors this theory he cites contemporane'
Gus debates on this subject in the senate
of the United States, and quotes Senator
Douglas resolution ordering withdrawal
of the Garrisons occupying Southern forts.
He speaks at length Of the journey of the
peace commissioners, who were sent by
the confederate government from Mont
gomery, then its capital, to Washington,
to negotiate for peaceful adjustment of
the questions at issue. lie severely crlti-
cises the conduct of Secretary Seward and
his colleagues, during these deliberations,
and asserts that the Overtnres Of the South
were not met in frank and candid spirit.

CONKLING DESERTED.

Republican Senators to Meet in Caucus
Monday and Repeal Their Rule Allow
ing Conkling to Postpone Vote on Rob-
ertsOn.
WASHINGTON, May 7.-Another Republican
caucus will be held Monday to take up the
new phase of the Robertson question and adj
ministration Senator's will contend for repeal
of the last carfcus rule, allowing one objection
by Senator to send nomination over. Conk-
ling expects to be beaten on this. He expects
that the rule will be repealed and is trying to
muster all the strength possible for
a fight in the Senate. Conkling complains
of Dawes and other Republicans, who, he says
made voluntary professions of friendship
for him, but deserted him when the President
made his attack. Hawley and Hale will lead
the administration side IN caucus. 1t appears,
too, that Conkling has lost confidence in
James, as in the executive session, yesterday,
he alluded 10 him as that man James. Mon
days caucus will decide the whole matter, and
the prevailing opinion is that it will agree to
take up and confirm Robertson at once.

An Extra Paragraph of Representations
From the Chief Signal Office.
WASHINGTON, May For the Upper Missis-
sippi and Lower Missouri valleys, partly
cloudy weather and occasional rain, southerly
In the latter district, stationary or lower ba-
rometer and temperature. The Missouri rivl
er will continue to fall The Mississippi will
fall at St. Paul and Cairo and rise at Dubuque,
lie Claire and Davenport.
The chief signal officer furnishes the follow
Ing special bulletin to the press: The barom-
eter is highest on the middle Atlantic coast
and lowest in the northwest. The temperature
has risen four to ten degrees in the lower lake
region, and fallen slightly in the northwest.
Easterly winds continue in the South Atlantic
States. Elsewhere east of the Mississippi,
and in the west gulf States the prevailing
winds are southerly. Rain has fallen since
last report in the northwest Elsewhere fair
weather has prevailed. The Missouri has
fallen twelve inches at Leavenworth, twenty
one inches at Lexington, twenty inches at
Bismarck, twenty-eight inches at Jefferson
City, and twenty-one inches at Hermann,
where it is ten inches above the danger
line. The Mississippi has fallen six
inches at st. Paul, and risen seventeen inches
at Dubuque. 1t is three feet above the danger
line and falling at st. Louis: two feet four
inches above at Cairo. 1t is below the danger
line at Memphis. The Ohio has fifty-one
inches at Pittsburgh. The indications are that
fair weather will prevail in the middle Atlantic
States, the Ohio valley and Tennessee and the
lowdr lake region to day, followed in the lat
ter two districts by increasing cloudlness and
local rains, by to night, and that fair weather
will prevail in the south Atlantic States to-
day and tomorrow. The MISSOURI will
probably continue to fall The Mississippi
will probably fail at st. Paul, La Crosse and
St. Louis and rise at Dubuque, LIE Claire and
Davenport.

THE ST. LOUIS FLOOD.

River Falling and Hopes Entertained That
No More Harm Will Come to the City
over the River the Water Still Spreading.
ST. LOUIS, May THE river is now falling
at the rate of about half an inch per hour, and
everybody seems to think no great amount Of
additional damage will be done in this city or
East St. Louis. The water is still pouring
over the dykes, but, as the rise has ceased the
reaction will soon set in, and the flow
will be towards instead of from the
river. Something of a scare was created east
of Venice last night, by a report brought into
that place, that Mr.. Reynolds, who occupies
and works Judge Smiths farm just outside
Venice, had cut a private roadway, which was
directing the water towards his land. Several
men Immediately armed themselves with
shetguns and revolvers, repaired to the
spot indicated, found the road cut, damned up
the opening and notified Reynolds not to in
terfere with it again. The low lands east and
north of Venice are rapidly filing up from the
break of yesterday at Horseshoe lake, but it is
hoped the river will fall 80 fast that no great
damage will be done. A large force of men is
working on the break at Choteau slough, and
1t is believed it will be stopped by this eve n

{. New YORK, May IA London correspon-
dent sends the following account of the latest
scientific sensation: ga remarkably interest
ing experiment has just beea made at Calais
and Dover, between which places conversation
has been kept up RIGA roce by means OF new
kind of telephone which has been patented
under the name of 'electrophone. No: only
were words whispered into the apparatus at
Calais distinctly heard at Dover, and of course
vice versa, but the listener at one end was per-
fectly we'll able to distinguish by the mere
tones of voice the person who was speaking at
the other end. 1t should be observed that
while the human voice was being transmitted
through one of the wires, the other was being
employed for transmission Of ordinary tele-
graphic messages; moreover the experiments
were conducted between the hours OF
10 and 4, that is, in the busiest part
est reauistion The voice of the speaker was
distinctly heard as soon as the wires were
Joined to the apparatus, and conversations
were carried on without interruption, in the
presence of competent specialists. Expert
ments with the same apparatus then con-
tinued with the same results, and in the midst
of the confusion produced by the simultane-
GUS working of several machines In the Lon
don terminal station the voice of the speaker
was heard as plainly as though ne had been
in the same room. There can no longer be
any doubt that it is perfectly practicable to
converse across, or rather under sea by means
of any submarine cable. The inventor main
tans it is Just as easy to talk across the At
lsntic as from one room to another"
