The Senate ORGANIZATION.

Senator COnkliny pretendS to think
that it would he very indecent for the
Democratic majority in the Senate to
proceed to organize the Senate commit
tees while several Republican seats are
vacant. Mr.. Conkling, in the expressive
language of.the street, talks great deal
more sOlicitous to speak with sincerity
and sense he would command 4 far
larger share of public esteem than he
now does. Even though the Democratic
senators were taking wrongful advan-
tage of their power, it does not lie in the
mouth of any Republican senator to re-
buke them.
That party has too fully demonstrated
its disposition to take every possible ad-
vantage to be in condition to throw
stones. Even in this very matter of or
ganizing the Senate it proposes to secure
its aim through the vote of the vice
president, who is not 4 senator and who
is only gwen vote when the Senate is
equally divided. 1t is not in the first in
stance any of his business how the body
is organized; and the Republican effort
to secure 4 delay until tie can be oh
tanned and till the Senate, therefore, is
unable to organize itself, so that the
VICE president may do the work, is in
itself sharp attempt to secure a politi-
cal advantage.
The proper course for the Democratic
senators to pursue seems obvious. The
Senate is in session and its committees
should be organized. The senators pres
ent should proceed with the work. 1t is
not for them to await the filling of un-
filled seats. IL the senators yet to come
shall see fit to change the organization
let them do so, if it is their right and is
in their power

At the First baptist Church Last Nlgl

At the First baptist Church Last Night.
A large assemblage congregated in the
First Baptist church, on East Chestnut
street, last evening to hear the lecture de-
livered by the young converted Burmese,
San-Ah Brah, on the condition of his peO-
pic in Burmah. The lecture, properly,
was but an introduction of q moro ex-
tended lecture which he will deliver this
evening in the same church.
After the reading Of portion of tho
scripture by the minister and prayer, San
Ah-B was introduced. The hymn,
From Greenland's Icy Mountains" be-
ing sung, the lecturer sang several verses
of the hymn in Burmese language to the
English tune !; the words of which sound
ed strangely musical.
In his introduction the lecturer re-
marked thai the subject upon which We
wish to speak "was ono which requires .
great deal of care" The depth and inn.
pOrtance of the theme being Of vast con.
Germ to the Christian world. "The sys-
tenn of India's religion were founded ages
ere the the American people were dreamed
Of. The great tenacity Of the people to
their forms was not to be destroyed by
light labor and in a short time" The
hereditary questions of the religious ideas
of idOlatry in India are deep-seated, pro-
found and venerated, yet it is not real, for
''amOng the Heather religion is matter
Of convenience and enforced by command"
In a comparison between the observance
of religious forms and cerem0niesin in India,
the lecturer remarked that, as no Sabbath
was observed, men worked and wOrshiped
ing was observed by ali, the observer alb
evening. In their offerings to tho gods
they can take all offerings to the idols
but money" In commenting upon the
ielusion OF these offerings Sa,,-Ah-Brah re-
marked, "yet to the minds of the heathen
it is as sincere as the religious observance
Of the Christian is to him.
San-Ah-Brah then entered into de-
scrption Of the manner of going to w0r-
ship, in which nc said "the moro beauti-
fully you dress the better you are fitted
for worship. A short description of the
interior of temple and its idols was given
and then the lecturer described the mode
of mourning and disposal Of tho dead.
