Thurlow Weed said last night 70 n TRIBUNE re-
porter:
81 have watched attcntivcly tho controversy be-
tween the President and Senator COnkliug and |
have found nothing to justify the course that Mr.
Conkling has taken. Judge Robcrtson's nomination
was in all respects n proper one his personal and
noIiticol record being entirely clear He had been
i'm the public service. in Congress and in the Lrg,la
ture. for thirty years. and there has never
been a breath OF suspicion against his pOliti-
cal fidelity or official integrity. There was
no lust ground, therefore for Republican senator
To oppose him. and Mr.. Conkling had 10 reason for
doing 30 other than the fact that Mr. Robertson
chose TO act independently instead OF following his
d;ctation After an obstinate and unjust resistance
for nearly two months in the Senate against Judge
Robertsons confirmation, Mr.. Conkling found
, that no was to be beaten, and instead
of submitting gracefully, as ho should
have done, he resigns in the expectation
of reelection by Legislature that has expressed
its unanimous sentiment in favor of Judge Robert
sons nomination. That Legislature must stultfy
| itself by complying with Mr. Conkling's wishes. l
think however, that it has too much selfrespect to
| be trfed with in that manner.
elf Mr.. ling and Mr.. Plat choose to resign
their seats, men worthy of such high positions
/, be found to supply their places. Ex-Governor
| Morgan, ex-senator Rogers, Controller Wadsworth
| OF Senator Astor are in all respects qualified
| and worthy of seats in the United States Senate.
1t is difficult to foresee what effect the party the
designations will have. There is great danger that
they will seriously injure the party In this State 1t
Is reckless and wicked thing in these men TO do
what they have done. Judge Robertson has sup
ported and voted for Mr.. Conklng when he

casloned the phenomenon; hence the
theories connecting it with the move.
ments OF the heavenly bodies fall to the
ground and share the fate of the wilder
and more faneifui flights of the imagina-
ton that some maintained.
In connection with these facts and
circumstances pertaining to this day in
the history of New England, it may not
oe amiss to add that q similar day OF
mysterious darkness occurred on Octo-
Der 81, 1716. There was also remark
able darkness at Detroit and vicinity
October l9. 1852, being almost total for
The greater part of the day. The phe-
nomenon was observed throughout a
vast region of country, and though vari-
Gus conjectures were indulged In as to
Its cause, the same degree of mystery
attaches to it as to that of 1780-con-
founding the wisdom even of the most
learned philosophers and men of sci
ence. Early in the present century,
also, IN the memory of many now liv-
ing, there occurred In New England a
Gay OF unusual darkness, but not SO re-
markable in its extentor peculiarities OF
effect as those previously mentioned.
Another famous dark day was that
which occurred in Canada early in the
last century, there being in addition
9 phenomenal electrical disturbance.
The observation was principally con-
fined to Canada. and created great con-
sternation among both Indians and
whites. Boston Transcript.

Marry ing o Widow.

A genuine comedy in real life was
played here yesterday. Mrs. Frances
Kennedy is young widow twenty-five
years old. Her husband died about a
year ago from fall Six months ago
William Cumming came courting her,
and, his attentions not being distaste-
full to the widow, she finally consented
to marry him in twelve months and q
day from the date of her first husband 8
death. The happy day fell on Wednes-
day, and the ceremony was to take
place at the brides house. A magnifi-
cent wedding feast was prepared, and
about eighty guests were invited to
partake Of it. The hour appointed for
the marriage was set at six p. m. In
the forenoon the bridegroom ar
rayed himself in his best and went off
to invite few friends in the country,
who had been forgotten. The after
noon mail brought postal card from
him stating that he had conscientious
scruples about marrying woman so
recently widowed. He would make it
o matter of prayer. and would abide the
result OF his feelings when through.
She was not to take this as a positive
declination to marry. but if he did not
arrive at six o'clock p. m. she might
consider the marriage of. Mrs. Ken
nedy did not faint or go into Mysteries,
but she decked herself In her bridal
robes and smilingly received the guests
bidden to the feast. When the minis
ter and all those with wedding gar
ments had arrived the lady called the
meeting to order and read the recreant
Cummings card. Loud and prolonged
were the denunciations of the absent
groom's conduct.
'eThis need not prevent the feast
said Mrs. Kennedy, and the guests fell
to banqueting Immediately. After sup
per the room was cleared for dancing,
and Mr.. Washington Williams, an
elderly bachelor. led the german with
the bride. He became so enamored of
her that within an hour he proposed,
and was accepted. The minister was re-
called and at eleven p. m. Mrs. Kennedy
was made Mrs. Washington Williams.
The marriage had scarcely been per-
formed when the door-bell was ruug
violently, and in stalked the conscien-
