FIFTEESTH-The Democratic Senators have been
assailed because they voted as their consciences
dictated, in order to divert the attention of the
country from an unlawful alliance.-SeaatOg Butter
VIII the honorable Senator please ex-
plain what, in his opinion, constitutes an
unlawful alliance? Does it consist in a
banding together to intimidate voters, or
to manufacture and use tissue ballots,
Or to carry out the Mississippi plan for
keeping the opposite political party in
a minority at the polls? And will the
honorable Senator also explain the pc
culiarities OLA Bourbon conscience which
permits its possessor to assist in an effort
to "starve the Government to death. -
and yet is so sensitive to opposition that
it is sorely pricked by the action of an in
dependent Senator who feels it his duty
to oppose Bourbon rule, and votes accord
ing TO the dictates of his conscience and
the wishes of his constituents?

SENATOR BUTLER, in his endeavor to
prove bargain between Senator Malone
and the Republicans, gives seventeen
reasons for his belief. Unfortunately, he
omits the chief and only convincing one
to the ordinary Bourbon intellect, viz:
that the course Of the Virginia Senator
IS distasteful to the Bourbon wing of his
party, who believe individual independ-
ence in politics crime if it runs counter
to their wishes, and because his attitude
threatens not only to destroy their pres
tige in the Senate, but also to completely
destroy the Solid South, upon which all
their political hopes depend. When the
Solid South IS broken up Bourbon as
cendancy in that region is gone forever:
and therefore men like the Senator have
good reason for crying out against free
dom Of thought and action With them
opposition TO Senator Malone is amatter
of fself-pTeseryation.

Daylight.

The Democrats have appeared all along
to hope for reinforcements from the Re-
publican side to aid them in the struggle
to defeat majority organization for the
Senate. This was not founded on the as
certained intention of any Republican
Senator, for no sensible person has at any
time imagined that there was any mem
Der of the body who had any thought OF
acting against his party. But there was a
hope on the Democratic side that burning
questions disconnected with. the dead
lock would compel alliances of Republi-
cans with political opponents to control
the results Of factional contests, and that
these causes would reach further than
intended. The reported action of the
Republican senatorial conference on
Wednesday must have destroyedall such
hopes. The opposition will not fail to
recognize the determination of the Re-
publicans to act together SO long as their
united action is made a necessity by the
obstructive policy of the Democrats.
Ordinarily, the question of confirming
a presidential nomination is not a strict
party one. But under the present cir
cunstances, with Senate equally di-
vided. the integrity of the party might
receive q rude and dangerous shock if,
on any exciting question, portion OF
the Republicans should seek victory by
the aid of Democratic votes. To avoid
this possibility will doubtless be the main
consideration in determining future ac-
ton in the Senate. The eagerness of the
Democracy to see the Senate go into ex-
ecutive session will greatly abate now
that such sessions are sure to work no
disturbances in the Republican side. A
battle with the enemy might be lost if,
during its progress, the guns of our own
men were to be turned on each other
The enemies of the Republican party
have been much elated over the unfor-
tunate differences which temporarily
exist in reference to some Executive acts.
We believe they calculate incorrectly il
they expect to be called in to settle these
differences. 1t is not impossible that
the long struggle on which the Repub-
licans of the Senate have entered for
the rightful control Of that body may in
its progress create revival of Stalwart
Republicanism which will obliterate all
minor questions that now irritate the
party.
The committee appointed by the chair
man of the caucus will, it is believed, re-
port plan within very few days which
will carry the party over all the shoals
whereon its enemies had hoped to see it
stranded.

THE mrNsTREL,s TRAGEDY.

They stood on the vine-embowered
posch OF tho old fashioned cottage, her head nest
ling conndingly on his shoulder, while he bent
over The fair, young face that looked so trustfully
Snto his, md whispered fervent words Of love to
ono that drank them in with oil the eagerncss and
faith that the ilrst great passion Of young heart
can produce
snlalie Liuderblom was an only child. Adel-
beSt ". Mulcahoy was another. Eulalie had been
FeAFed in the lap Of luxury. while Adelbcrt had
@fSy enjoyed front seat on one knee. But they
loved cNch other with n dcathess love that was al
lnest wicked IN It's intensity.
" Kiss me once more my sweet" murmured
Eulalio rs she threw her plump warm arms around
Adelbcrs neck, and placed close TO his face pair
of riFe, red lips that would have made IN anchor
lite let 80 his anchor ut once. The young mon bent
down his head, and n sound rs II somebody was
taking or POROUS plaster followed.
"FS-by, Tootic" said Adelbert a moment later
as be lea her at The gnte.
Two minutes have passed. Eulalie is still living
In the cottage-but, oh, how changed There Is n
plainly great grief
III can never forget him, mamma" she said
sadly, kissing the matronly- looking woman who
stands before her good night
u think you had better, my daughter Your
brothers box.toed boot hit him full in the Sleep
ing car, and doubt me fine has stopped running
yet"
The mothers words proved true. Adelberts
proud spirit was crushed and few days later,
whcna companion asked IL he was going up the
street TINT evening, he smiled sadly and said :
mot this evening nor any other evening.

No penalty which can be inflicted by
the regulations and laws relating TO the army will
be too severe for Sergeant Mason, who attempted
ITO kill the wretch Guiteau. His rash act was
q most serious breach of the trust rcposed in
N m by the Government-nomeyt TO guard and pro-
tect prisoner. If n government cannot depend
upon Its regular army establishment especially
when In the performance Of guard duty, where is
there any security that law and order can be main
dained7 In the matter of revenge, If such was the
motive OF Sergeant Mason. he certainly had no
right to constitute himself the agent TO act for the
Nation or its people. The discretion of an enlisted
soldier is not commonly good enough in such cir
cumstances. The punishment of Guteau will
probably be tenfold greater at the hands of the
Government In the regular course of proceedings
than 1t would have been had Mason's shot proved
fatal; and the latter would have deprived the peo-
pie Of Whatever satisfaction they will have in the
future in seeing the assassin tried and punished
either by hanging or sentenced to conyicts fate
of daily hard labor and misery--Erchange.

NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.
NEW York, Sept II, 3.l5 p m.-To. days market
opened Mt about yesterdays closing, and by noon
showed an Improvement Of I3@2I@ per cent. At
two o'clock decline took place, which continued
TO the close. The trunk lines held T@l percent Of
their Improvement Mt the close, but the general
list shows decline OF h@i per cent. The greatest
advance was in the truukllne stocks yesterday,
rumors being repeated confidently as to an carly
adjustment Of their differences. and the general
market followed the trunk line shares. The belief
was also general that Secretary Window would call
