RAILWAY ACCIDENT
On the Lake Shore and Michigan
Southern Railway.

CLEVELAND, Ono, March 23.-The
Lake Shore and Michigan Southern
express train, due here at 7.5O last
evening, ran off the track at Noting
ham, eight miles east of this city,
while running at high rate of
speed. Engineer John Lace and
fireman John Henderson were killed.
They were crushed against the head
of the boiler by the tender, which
turned completely over the locomo-
tive and landed on the track several
feet ahead. The engine was thrown
on one side and the mail, baggage,
two express and two passenger cars
were thrown from the track, which
was torn up for two hundred feet.
The smoking and three sleeping cars
did not leave the track. No passen-
gers were injured, though all in the
forward cars were considerably
shaken up. The express and bag
gage cars were badly wrecked. Mes
senger August Schneider was Sc
verely, but probably not fatally hurt.
He had a miraculous escape, the
only part of his car left whole was
the roof which was forced on top of
the car ahead.

Mormon Problem.

WASHINGTON, March 2O.-President
Garfield will have a well-defned
policy as to the Utah problem. He
is to>day reported as having said to
a Senator Polygamy must end
shall be stamped out. This plague
spot on our institutions must be
banished. I ask you, as my friend,
to take your stand in the Senate and
fight this evil until it is crushed out
of existence. We must, however, save
from illegitimacy the seventy thou
sand children born in Utah of polyg-
amous parents. I feel bound to do
this, because two of my predecessors
saw tit to recognize the institution
by the appointment of Brigham
Young, the head of the church, GOV
ernor of the Territory"
The President alluded to Buchan-
an and Fillmore as his predecessors
who had made Mr.. Young the gov
ernor OF the Territory.

been adopted. The proposition
which he (Mr. Voorhees) had sub
mitted, needed no concurrence bv
the House. 1t was to give informa-
tion upon the great overshowing
question; it was to give the departs
merits of this government the opin :
ion which the Senate of the United
States entertained on the great pub
lie matter, and it might be very inns
portant to certain branches of the
government that this expression
of opinion should be given.
Mr.. Morrill, said it would seem
from the precedents that the Senate
had always had great reluctance to
doing anything except what it had
been specially called to do. So far
as he was concerned, however, he
would withdraw the point of order
as the resolution would, at all events,
have to go over until tomorrow,
and if there was a disposition to dis
cuss thls question or any other the
Republican side of the chamber was
quite ready.
Mr.. Morrill, withdrew his point of
order against Mr.. Voorhees, resolu-
ton, which was laid over for one
day under the rules.
Mr.. Dawes offered resolution for
the election of the Senate officers
and naming the candidates selected
by the Republican caucus yesterday.
Laid over.
The Senate then, at 10, went
into executive session, and when the
doors were reopened, at 1.45, adj
iOurned until Tomorrow.

Mr. Blaine, it is reported, favors and
Mr.. Window opposes it. No deciss

as it was a few days since.
Gentlemen interested in the aps

recalling of General Longsteet from

Mr.. EDITOR: The road known as
the Rutledge pike, leading by the fair
grounds, is in a most horrible and
criminal condition, and the question
is, who is responsible ?
At or near the crossing of Barlram
street gully has been washed across
the pike, and to-day 1t Is unsafe, even
in the daytime, to drive Carriage or
wagon there. This road leads to four
cemeteries, and it is almost impossible
to drive the hearse over the same. The
people living on the road are poor, la
boring men, yet the most Of them own
their homes and pay their taxes. The
work house hands could fix the road
in four days. and if come few rich men
lived there it would have been done
long ago; but the people are poor, and
what right has squire got to notice
poor people, except to assess their little
homes for taxes and solicit their votes,
which happen to count as much as q
big mans? *x*.

THE SENATE.
Report Of Proceedings OF the Sen
ate in Extraordinary Session.


ate in Extraordinary Session.
WASHINGTON, March 23.-Mr. Voor-
hees agan submitted the resolution
which he had yesterday offered and
subsequently withdrawn, declarino
that the hostile attitude assumed by
the national banks to the refunding
of the national debt at a lower rate
of interest, and their resent attempt
to dictate the legislation of Congress
are contrary to the best interests of
the people and calculated to excite
their alarm for the future.
Mr. Morrill, raised the point of Orr
der that the resolution was not in
order, inasmucb as it WAS a legisla,
tive proposition.
Mr. Sherman thought that it would
be unjust to the chair to require
him to decide the point until all the
precedents on the que ton had been
cited. His recollection was that
propositions like this had been de-
Dated IN every executive session
which had ever been called, and he
hoped that Mr.. Voorhees, would be
PERM ted to speak to the point of
order.
Mr.. Morrill, said he had no obiec-
ton to the gentleman speaking to
the point. HIS only reason for OBJ
jecting to his speaking to the merits
of the resolution was that he desired
to adjourn at an early day, and that
proposition would probably give rise
to protracted debate.
Mr. Voorhees, then proceeded to
argue that The proposition was
clearly in order, and cited
from the precedents to show
that at special executive session of
the Senate any busine-s could be
transacted which did not need the
cooperation of the House of Repre>
sentatlves. He quoted from the
oP1hlons OF such men as Chase, Sew
M aio ana Douglass, to the effect that
Lhe oehate, In special session. might
90 any act which it was competent
for 1t to do by itself without the co
operation of the House. and stated
that that theory was embodied bv
MIR. Seward, in a resolution. and
unanimously adopted. He regretted
to convince any one against his will,
and most of all, the Senator from
Michigan (Mr. Ferry, who had yes-
terday sprang to his feet in opposiA
ton to the pending resolution; but
1T was a fact that that gentleman

HE house of representatives at
Nashville passed the State credit bill
yesterday, by nearly a two-t thirds
majority. Now let the senate pass
it without delay. There are doubts
less many who do not approve all
the features of the proposition, and
who honestly wish that it could be
changed. But majority of those
who oppose it would oppose any
honorable settlement of the debt.
It is absolutely certain now
that the bill which passed the house
yesterday is the only one that can
possibly become a law now. It is
fair and liberal, and the man who
opposes it runs great risk of de-
feating a settlement of the debt at
all, and thus subjecting the State to
the greatest disgrace imaginable.
We think we know enough of ma
Jority of the senators in the Tennes-
see Legislature to warrant us in say
ing that the bill will become a law,
and that we are saved at last from
the disgrace of rrpudia ion.
