up a1d more partisan political speeches
I Wgsre8 mad 8. .slse1atoi. Beck, Of "a NantuclSy,
h was the principal speaker. He asserted
I that the Republicans accepted the alli-
ance with Malone as means to control
the next Virginia election. and invited
Republican Senators to meet him on the
stump in that State during the APP
preaching canvass, where he could talk
as it would not be proper to talk in the
Senate chamber
ApEm l3.-h the United States
Senate, Mr. Pendleton spoke in defense
of the action of the democratic side in
opposing the election Of Senate officers
and in eulogv of the democratic party.
Mr.. Malone created a "scene" in en-
deayoring to elicit an explanation of
certain language from Mr.. Hill, Of
Georgia, but got but little satisfaction
from the latter's answer.
April H. There was decided calm
in the Senate, after the violent storm of
angry words which prevailed the day
preceding, and the proceedings were Of
the most uninteresting nature. Mr.
4 Morgan, of Alabama, led off for the Dem
ocrats in a three hours speech, going
over the old ground that has been trav-
ersed by nearly all the speakers on his
side since the commencement of the
deadlock. Mr. Brown, of Georgia, was
the next speaker, and created a slight
ripple of excitement by affirming if nee
essary to defeat the coalition of Repub-
Hcans and Readiusters in Virginia
brought about by Malone, the regula
Democracy or Funders would vote to re
pudiate every dollar of the Nirgini;
debt Messrs. Hoar, of Massachusetts
and Hawley, of Connecticut, replied II
very brief speeches, and the Senate lat
G:15l adjourned until Monday next.
ApRm lS.-The Senate reassembled
after recess since last Thursday. il
was evident early in the proceedings
that the predictions of compromise by
which the deadlock was to be broken
were not to be Immediately realized
and as the day wore on there were nc
indications Of any such arrangemen'
being made at an early day. Messrs
Brown, Of Georgia, and Dawes O
Massachusetts, in the course Of debate
announced the intention Of their respec
tive parties of fighting the thing ont i
it takes all summer. The only sensa
tional event was a misunderstanding
: between Messrs. Beck and Dawes, VIII
for few minutes were almost at dag
gers points, but upon Mr. Beck explain
:, ing his words peace was restored.
