CONGRESS ought not TO lose day over the
Grape national bank bill. As the Courier
Journal says, she Democratic party has no
war TO wage against the national banks,
whatever few crazy dreamers, now mas
querading as Democrats, may say" Within
the next eleven months the charters Of 1893
n'tiOnaI banks expire; ii somA law TO extend
their charters is not passed these banks will
go into liquidation. This does not mean the
destruction Of the system, for these banks
can at once reorganize, but it does mean a
short and sharp contraction of the currency
and OF loans, and a serious shock to our
commercial interests. The bill now pending
in Congress to cbviate this trouble, known
as the Grape bill, should receive immediate
attention; delay is full of danger. La May
eleven hang charters expire; in June six
teen; in July tw, n'y-four; IN August ten;
IN Sspts m ber eieveo; ia The three following
months iitesn each; in Jdnuary line, and

THE probability becomes stronger that
Senator Davis, West Virginia, will be a
candidate for reelection. Ex-Speaker MOI
felt, Of the Legislature OF that State, said in

from the race was the safest method he could
have taken to secure his own reelection.

Mr.. DARwIN's death made a profound
impression throughout Europe, and in Eng
land and France especially has been the
absorbing topic among literary and scientific
people. The papers Of the United King
dom printed Icing, exhaustive and eulo-
CYSTIC obituaries of the man whose name the
London Times couples with that of Beacons-
field as the two most powerful men of this
century. In France the news of Darwin's
death was received with profound SORROW,
especially in, scientific circles. The jour
mails speak of the deceased sasan. with
respect bordering on reverence. One
of the highest boulevard publications even
ssys'of him His was unquestionably by
common consent of sauuH's and of the public
the most famous name in modern science"
The same paper calls attention to Ddrwin's
modes y and tolerance. Though" it says,
he was to stir up the most furious int illect-
uae battle OF the century, he never strove 10
violate a conscience or TO upset faith or
even a supersiition.o

THE Boston AdUeTtiser, in an article ON the
death of Darwin, says that since 1859, when
the Origin Of Species was published, the cata-
logues Of great publishers have had a new
subdivision. There are "History," "Phi-
iosophy," Theology" etc, and then there
is "Darwinism." As Max Muller happily
said in 1861, Mr.. Darwin, with his theory of
natural selection" gave birth to neU genus
of human thinking, and by SO doing won
recognition as the most original thinker that
England has produced since Sir Isaac New

Sergeant MasOn's Case Argued Before
the Supreme COurt-The Chinese
Bill in the Senate.

WASHINGTON, April 26.-lSenate.-A bill
passed for public building at Fort Wayne,
Ind.
The political disabilities bill was laid
aside without action and the Senate resumed
consideration of the Chinese bill.
Senator Slater said he would remind the
Massachusetts, senators that the people of the
Pacific coast were of the Caucasian race and
defendants of the men of Massachusetts
who threw overheard tea in Boston harbor.
They had reclaimed that beautiful land from
wilderness and they would not surrender it..
Senator Hawley reiterated his uDcondi-
tionsl hostility to the measure.
Senator E5munds moved an amendment
.disining the words Chinese laborers," to
mean persons who are usually engaged in
manual labor.

Mr.. Randall raised question of considera-

The reading of the report consumed an
hour and half, and at its conclusion Mr..
Pettibone Tenn. took the floor in support
of the case of the contestant Lynch.
Ma Anterior [O.1 made a long argu-
ment in favor of the minority report, declar-
ing Chalmers entitled to the seat.
Mr.. Moore Tenn. in advocating the seat
ing of Mr.. Lynch, protested against the
shilly-shally, milksop policy of the managers
of the Republican party in the House, if il
had any managers. He insisted on a vigor-
Gus policy in regard to contested election
cases, warning his party friends that unless
they did simple justice, and that soon, to Re-
publican contestants, who had almost liter
ally fought their way 10 the doors of this
House, the Forty-eighth Congress would be
in the hands of round majority of Bourbon
Democrats.

GENERAL WASHINGTON NOTES.


Star ROute Trials.
The case of Reredell came up in the Police
Court again to-day. Ex-Postmaster- General
James and Ex-Attorney. General McVeagh
testified. Mr.. James was on the stand at
the adjournment.
Nominations.
Among the nominations seut in to-day
were Louis J. Sauer, of Louisiana, appraiser
for the district of New Orleans, and r. For
tune Reard, of Louisiana, assistant appraiser
for the district of New Orleans.
Combinations.
Alphonso Taft, of Ohio, envoy extra
ordinary and minister plenipotentiary to
Austria, and William L. Dayton, of New
Jersey, minister resident to the Netherlands
were confirmed by the Senate too day; ALSO a
number of consuls and postmasters.
The war on WOrthIngfOn.
The Senate Committee on Commerce will
to- morrow take up the nomination of Worth
ington to be collector of customs at Boston,
and they expect to act upon it. Senator
Dawes will appear from the committee and
make arguments against Wortbington's con-
frmation. The burden of his argument
will be that Worthington would convert the
customhouse and its patronagei into a
political machine, and that the people of
Massachusetts, are opposed TO that. Repre-
sentatives Bowman, Harris and Norcross, of
Massachusetts, and Ex-senator Boutwell,
viii make arguments in favor of Worthing-
ton-Hoar and Dawes to carry their fight
into the Senate, but unless they get consid-
cradle Democratic aid they will be defeated
and Worthington confirmed. The present
indications are that most of the Democrats
will vote for the confirmation.
Masen's Case Before the Supreme Court.
In the Sergeant Mason case, before the
United States Supreme Court, to-day, Solicit
tor.General Phillips made an argument of
about half an hour for respondents. He
took much the same ground as did Gardiner
yesterday, holding that the court-martial
had full jurisdiction to try Mason under the
sixty second article of war; that its punish
ment was not excessive if army discipline is
to be maintained. Liddy closed the argu-
ment for the defense. He maintained that
the Supreme Court had original jurisdiction
TO review the case, but if this was denied it
certainly had appellate Jurisdiction. He
had applied to the District Supreme Court
for a writ OF ha6eas corpus, and it having
been denied, the case came before the
Supreme Court just as if the writ had been
denied by the United States Circuit Court.
The court then took up the case and will on
next Friday adjourn until the Sth of May,
when it will assemble to deliver opinions
before the adjourning of the term.
