The Destitute and Homeless.

Yankton, April 13.-The citizens to-
day appointed committee which
makes a statement to the public, show
ing that from six to seven Thousand
people are homeless from the foods on
the Missouri, and many citizens entire
ly helpless, and will need aid three
months to clothe and feed themselves
and get grain to plant.
Gov George H. Hand and other citi-
zens will receive contributions.
The gorge extends from Yankton to
Vermillion filling the river channel,
over thirty miles wide, with solid ice,
sometimes thirty feet high.
One hundred and thirty people were
rescued from Maysville last night,
where they had been surrounded by ice
and water two weeks.
There are twenty families in a river
bend fifteen miles below here who can't
be reached on account of heavy ice
surrounding them, and have not been
heard from since the flood covered the
bottom. Great anxiety is felt for them
and heroic efforts are being made to
reach them. Fifty people are impris-
oned also at Meckling.
Washington: The government has
responded nobly to the appeal OH behalf
of the Dakota sufferers, with fuel, med
icine and means of transporting the
sick and helpless.

SEC. WINDOWS POLICY.
The New York Press Criticism,

The New York Press Criticisms
New York. April 13.-The CONNER
nercial Bulletins Washington special
says: 1t is now apparent that the trea-
sury policy in regard to the six per cent
bonds will be an entire success, and it
is probable that the fives will be dis
posed of in the same way. This policy,
if successfully carried out, will make it
unnecessary for congress to pass
funding bill next winter, and its success
is hourly assured by bankers who wish
to escape the troubles of the passage of
funding bill like that of last session,
which Hayes vetoed. The more the
treasury policy is considered the more
it is approved. 1t now looks as if by
far the larger part of the skies, notified
for payment July 1st, or for extension
at three and half per cent, would be
extended, and it is known that the pur-
chase of sixes have already begun in the
market for the purpose of getting the
benefit of the extension at three and a
half per cent, many holding the opinion
that these three and half per cent.
stamped bonds will run long time.
The World attacks the treasury pol
icy as follows: The more Windom's
brilliant financial scheme, by which
holders of government securities to the
amount of S195,O00, 900, bearing inter-
est at six per cent, are invited to ex-
change them for the personal obliga-
tions of William Window to the same
amount, bearing interest at the rate Of
three and half per cent, payable out
of the assets, whatever they may be of
Mr.. Window, the moro it is disliked.
The Herald wholly approves the plan.
1t says: 1t opens the way to that rapid
extinguishment of the debt, on which
good many men of both parties insist,
and does it without necessity for spe-
cial refunding bill. There is, there
fore, every reason to wish the secretary
the fullest success with his plan, be-
cause it in every detail promotes the
public interest and guards the treasury.

Has 1t been resurrected after twenty
years of war disaster and surrender on

atory, beg to assure that senator that
SO far as my constitutional duties are
concerned they will be performed as
earnestly and as constantly, and trust
with more frankness and manliness
than the senator has performed his on
this occasion. l meant simply this,
that your boasted constitutional major
ity is no majority.
This tilt was highly enjoyed.

THE ENDLESS DEBATE.
A Tilt Between Dawes and PendIe-


ton.
Washington, April -Pendleton
said that the republican course was un-
precedented; Hoar had charged, but
subsequently retracted the charge, that
the democrats were revolutionary.
Hoar said that he had not made, but
did now make that charge.
Pendleton said that he would leave
it to Brown, of Georgia, to make him
retract the charge as he had done be-
fore. Sherman had said that this was
the scheme to destroy the democracy in
Virginia, through the installation of
Riddleberger and the brigade of paid
employees Of the senate. as instruments
To perambulate the state and win the
local elections. He took up this gage
of battle in behalf of the democracy.
They would discharge the public busi-
ness under the lead of the republicans,
would consider the nominations and
then adjourn, but would not unite in
desecrating that altar, pointing to the
clerks desk, consecreted to discharge
the great public duties. dedicated to
the service of all parties but for the
partisan use of none, and permit it to
be used for political warfare and the
spoils of petty partisan triumph. The
republicans might call it improper, ir-
Irregular, revolutionary and reasonable,
but the democrats would prevent a
great wrong and appeal to the Ameri-
can people to decide the right. He
asked Allison and Dawes whether, if
Malone had not voted with the repub-
licans, the republican caucus would
have nominated Riddleberger. Neither
answering, he said, ''silent one, silent
ALL"
Dawes said it was unfair to impute
silence to the republican side, because
they didn't break into and spoil the
speech and figure which he had pre-
| pared at home and committed to men,
ory. This was fight in which there
could be no compromise without de-
struction and he who would yield a
hair of omnipresent to the will Of the
majority, as 1t spoke through the con-
stitution and laws of the land, was a
traitor to his country. Applause in the
galleries.)
Harris: Does not the senator know
when he speaks about majorities that
without the aid Of this side of the
chamber, the thirty-eight senators on
that side are utterly powerless, under
the constitution, to perform any act
which would be binding on any indi.
vidual in the landp You would have
no quorum.
Dawes: Does the senator mean that
he will again secede as he did twenty
years agop Does he mean that he will
not perform his constitutional func.
tions here, and that there stands will
him the whole Of that party which the
senator from Ohio tried to light ur
to the sky this morning. They will
abandon their seats, they will refuse
to perform their functions, they will
declare that this senate shall not pro
ceed with its deliberations because they
do not like what the majority propose.

Washington, April 13.-The republi-
cans will caucus on the dead lock in a
few days. Much reliance is placed on
the advice of Edmunds, who is now
here. Some republicans say that the
caucus will decide to stand firm; others,
that compromise is probable.
David Davis letter favoring break
up of the old parties, is pronounced by
democrats and republicans as merely
a declaration of the natural policy of an
independent who would be the leader of
a national independent party. Neither
party considers break up likely.
The president is withholding several
nominations, particularly for foreign
missions, until the dead lock is over.
The colloquy between Dawes, Butler,
Harris, Beck and others as to the as
sertion of Dawes that Malone had been
approached by the democrats, was
spirited, and at times very personal.
Both sides denied that any offer had
been made to Malone.

two persons, when Wilson discharged

Both fled, but the dead body of the

twin brother, Luther, also student.
The latter, after the shooting, appear
ed and made full confession. they
are residents Of North Andover, Mass. !,
and are Of the most respectable CON
nections. They had attempted three
weeks previously to enter the same
place.
Further investigation shows that
Arthur Foster was n theological stu
dent, studying for the ministry, and
chat on completing his studies at the

RAILROAD MATTERS.

The Maine Central Considering PROPOSE
ton to Lease the Knox & Lincoln.
RocKLAND, Dec by invitation President
jackson, Superintendent Tucker, Director
Young and the road master and bridge master
of the Maine Central met President Berry. Su-
perintendent Coombs, the directors and other
gentlemen interested in the Knox & Lincoln
to-day and made an examination of the road.
Committees appointed by the cities and towns
interested in the Knox & Lincoln, more espec-
tally the committees representing Bath and
Rockland, have had several conferences of late
concerning the interests of the road, and the
question of lease or sale has been discussed.
President Jackson met a committee of the
directors of the Knox & Lincoln at Wiscasset
last Saturday, and at this conference he init
mated that the Maine Central might be will
ling to lease the road for ninety-nine years at a
fair rate, but nothing definite could then be
said. as his directors had not been called to
consider the subject, and as large sum would
have to be expended on the Knox q Lincoln
in case of such lease, examination and esti-
mates would be necessary before final consid-
Grafton Of the question. The invitation to the
Maine Central officials was given as q result of
this conference. The company left Bath by
special train at a. M, stopping at various
points, and arrived here for dinner, returning
this afternoon. The road was found in excel
lent condition and the party were gratifed at
the result of their examination. Should the
Maine Central effect lease of the Knox &
Lincoln new ferry boat at Bath, capable of
transporting six cars, a more rapid transit of
freight and fast day express from Boston are
among the improved facilities talked of.

SATURDAY MORNING, DECEMBFR 8.
The York County Attorneyship.


SAco, Dec. 2, 1851.
The recent nomination of John 5. Derby Tor
County Attorney of this county, raises at an
earlier day than it was anticipated, the question
as to the duty of the Executive Council with
regard 10 that and other nominations which
are vet to be made by the Governor.
The Lewiston journal has recently publish
ed an article which has been quoted approving
" by leading Republican newspapers in the
State, taking the position that as the vacancies
TO be filled are in offices which are elective and
not appointive in character, and the present
power to appoint to them is merely incidental
I, The change IN the Constitution, and tempo
rary, not one of the general functions of the
Governor, consideration should be given by
him 10 the wishes of the people as they were
indicated by the choice of the present lncum-
bents. 1t would seem that no suggestion could
be fairer under all the existing circumstances,
and if adopted by him as the rule for his action
the Council will he bound to confirm the nomi-
nation of Judge Derby, the people at their last
election of a County Attorney having made
choice of Fusionist, and Judge Derby being a
FusiODist and having the needfui quallhcationS
for the position.
While this course would manfestly be fair to-
wards both Judge Derby and the people of
York County If his case were to be considered
independently of all others, the Council should
not lose sight of the fact that many other va
cancies are to be supplied, some in everv
comfy in the State,-and that in many instan-
ces the present incumbents are Republicans
Now if the Council having disposition to be
magnanimous, is inclined to confirm the Gov
ernor's nomination of County Attorney in
York County because at the last election of
that official The choice fell upon a Fusionist,
should il not before allowing its magnanimity

that lis desire for fair play is appreciated by

ent incumbents are of that political faith?
