lated did it read: i think the nomination
Of Judge Robertson should be promptly
confirmed for the healing end good of the
party" Did Mr. Conkling resent this as
an endeavor to teach him the "A B O. of
his duty?" Whether these hints have
foundation in fact or not, it is an open
secret that Governor Cornell, the official
head of the Republican party in this state
has not appeared impatient to see the
Legislature rescind it's resolutions ap-
proving the nomination Of Mr.. Robert
son. Republican Senators at Washing
ton may rest assured that the Republican
party Of this State does not desire to
frighten or to bully them into antago-
nism with the President. On the contra
ry the great majority of the Republi-
cans of New York feel that the President
has sought to act justly and fairly tow
ard all classes Of his supporters, and that
he ought to be sustained IN that endeav-

Candidates for the several county Off
ces to be filled this fall begin to peram-
bulate the county. Somehow these gen.
tlemen who have generally reposed i'm
es" to yut them through regardless of
the will Of the people, begin to lose con-
fdence in the ability to fulfil all all their
contracts. The Republican party is
strong enough to insist on the nomina-
tion of good men, and we think the rauk
and file will assert their prerogatives re-
gardless OF previous contracts by self
constituted agents.

Four poor Philadelphia housewives,

than their previous practice of bnylng a

the plan to other supplies, and then to
additional members. Next they hired
room and woman to superlntend the
purchases and distribution. Fifty fami-

The Tribune concludes an article on
Senator Conkling's untenable position in
his relation to the President in these judi
Cious words:
The plain truth is that, in opposing the
confirmation of Mr.. Robertson, Senator
Conkling is at issue with the great major
ity of Republicans Of New York. Even
many of the journals which advocated the
nomination of General Grant as earnest I
ly as the Tribune opposed it, dissent from
the course of Senator Conkling, and
therein represent the feelings Of a major
ity Of those who have been his supporters.
The question is asked very significantly
by an Albany paper: "Does Mr., Conk-
ling ever receive kilograms in cipher?
Did he receive one not long ago? Trans

Forty-Seventh COngress---Extra Session.

WASHINGTON, October 10.
 SENATE.-The assembling of the special session of the Senate was witnessed by a large number of persons who, as early as Il o'clock filled the galleries to their utmost ca- pacity. The desk formerly occupied by Sen ator Burnside was tastefully draped with black, while several bouquets ornamented the desks of prominent Senators. The Senator's elect, Aldrich, Lapham and Miller. occupied seats upon the floor on the Republican side. The Senate was called to order by Mir. Harris (Dem., Tenn.). After prayer by Chaplain Bullock. who alluded in a feeling manner to the deaths of President Garfield, Senator Burnside and Secretary Bureh, MT. Harris said: q have been requested by number of Senators on both sides of the chamber to call the Senate to order. If there be no ob- lection will call the Senate to order that we may proceed with it's business. The Senate will please come to order, and the clerk will report to the Senate the message of the Pres ident converting the session of the Senate"
 The Presidents proclamation having been read, MT. Pendleton (Dem., O. moved the adoption of the following resolution
 s'That Thomas E. Bayard, Senator from the State of Delaware is hereby chosen President pro tenn. of the Senate
 Mr. Edmunds said that, of course, he did not object to the present consideration of the resolution; but he thought that, under ex- isting circumstances, it was his duty to pre- sent the credentials of the Senators elect, which he thereupon did. The credentials having been read MT. Edmunds moved that the oath of office be administered to those gentlemen by Senator Anthony Rep., R. l. ), the senior Senator.
 After the rejection of Mir. Edmunds' mo- tion, yeas 32, nays 34, panty vote, except that ME. Davis, of Illinois, voted with the Republicans, Mir. Edmunds moved, in order not to stihe the voice of two States, as he said, to add to the original resolution of Mir. Pendleton the words 'sfor this day.'' lie cited the election of Lewis Cass as President pro tem. for one day, which was done on mo- ton of MT. Hunter, of Virginia, prior to the swearing in of MT. Foote, of Vermont, and only two sessions ago, while Mir. Thurman was unable to be present it was moved that MT. Eaton be President pro ten. for one day. They could thus follow law and Democratic precedent.
 Mir. Beck, of Kentucky, desired to say that the law of 1879 and the rules of the Senate require that the President pro tena. of the Senate be elected prior to the swearing in of new members. That they proposed to do no more and no less. He had seen often times modest and apparently harmless words do great mischief. He remembered the words Eff any'' in the electoral commission bill played a very important part in that transaction If the Presidentof the Senate had followed the almost universal practice tens there would have been no occasion for this session. They now proposed to follow the law. Nobody denied that an oath could

The Brown Abortion Case.

The Accused Bound Over Under ST 200
 Bonds.
 The arguments in the case of the State vs ''Dr." Henry Brown, charged with causing an abortion on Mary Hartenstein, were con- menced soon after 5 o'clock yesterday after noon. Prosecuting Attorney Pickett argued for the State on the question as to who produced the abortion, and then re- hearsed the evidence to show that Henry Brown was the offender. He claimed that the witnesses brought by the defense were either employed by 'Dr." Brown or William R. Shelton, and that their testimony should have but little weight with His Honor.
 MT. Asher, in replying for the defense, claimed that the burden of proof rested upon the State, and they had not showed that the accused had committed this abortion. He referred to the unreliable evidence of the ac- cused, and claimed that she was not substan- tiated in her statements.
 Judge Sheldon, after listening patiently to the arguments, concluded that there was probable cause for binding the accused over to the January term of the Superior Court, and he so ordered. The bonds were fixed at $1, 200, and Charles W. Bradley, of the Flor ence House, became Browns bondsman.
