SENATE.

SENATE.
WASHINGTON, March 31.-Mr. Dawes
called mp pending business
Mr.. Cameron lPa. said the present
issue is too plain to be misunderstood.
The Republicans said their majority had
the right to decide who should be officers
of the Senate. The Democrats said the
minority had it. The Republicans could
not abandon their right. though the Dem
oorats made ii u question of endurance.
The majority could endure as long as the
minority. The contest was something
more than TO secure the Offices: it was .
coming political contest in Virginia.
Malone had terrified the old Demo
Gratis OF the South. who had appealed TO
the Democrats to cover Malone with ap-
probrium SO his followers at home would
not dare to support him. He had made q
political slavery in Virginia, impossible.
He had the sympathy OF the Republican
party.
In championing free elections Virginia
would see the north fraternized with ex-
confederates who. by act as well as By
word, favored an honest ballot and fair
count. They voted for Riddleberger as
an Indication that il was not sectional. This
was the only bargain it had to offer. No
southern frauds OF Virginia took her stand
on 9 platform of an honest ballot. Tbs
solid south was thing of the past.
Senator Maxey said, though Senator
Dawes Insisted on the will of the minority,
he had taken part in setting aside eight
thousand Democratic
MAJORITY IN LOUISIANA
in rs Dawes might claim that the major
isy was procured by fraud. our people
thought that the majority OF this senate
was procured by crooked means, he knew
not whether this was so. but he demanded
an investigation into the strange methods
by which the majority was obtained.
The Democratic party stood here 20
secure to the American people the boon of
q free ballot and an honest count, and
demand If there was sespicion it be re
viewed. Dawes said there was difference
between what he called vote aud what
Maxey called vote. He counted nothing
vote that had not free ballot behind it,
though such ballots as he held ID
his hand - about inches square - had
been found in the ballot boxes, with
nothing behind but the villainous hands
that put them 10. Because attempts
had been made to substitute these for
freemen's votes in ballot boxes. In some
states, and to put blunderbusses in the
place of freemen's flags Ia another. he had
done what he could to stand by what he
supposed every freeman In the land
understood to be the meaning OF ballot

the question of money for the next four
months is no longer onewhich has important
influence in the calculations respecting the
prices of stocks all agreeing that il will be

sidertion which have important bearing on

Investments and this will depend good
deal on the treasury programe and second
on the crops.
There is little doubt that winter wheat
has been greatly injured by the severe
winter-but this may be made up by M
increase in average of spring wheat--in q
word there are many uncertainties to be
looked after and OF course will be the
usual amount of misrepresentation about
crops for tbs next three months as their

SO far as railroad securities are concerned
but for their Influence on foreign exchan~

the winter as whole has been a very

which their net earnings have been affect

SET AND SIT.-Many of the agri-
cultural journals are surely troubled
to know whether a hen sits or sets.
IF some editor of dignity would set a
hen on her nest and the editors
would let her sit it would be well
for the world. Now man, or wo-
man either, can set a hen, although
they can not sit her; neither can
they set on her, although the old
hen might sit on them by the hour
if they would allow. A man cannot
set on the wash bench but he
could set the basin on it, and neither
the basin nor the grammarians
would object. He could sit on
dogs tail if the dog were willing, 0,
he might set his foot On it. But il
