Senator Cameron will not ask for the
withdrawal of the nominations of Jackson
and Kaufman, and both men will be con-
firme1 this week. Senator Mitchell asked
Mr.. Cameron if he intended to push Jack
Son and Kaufman through the Senate,
the senior senator replied IN the affirma-
tive. Mr.. Mitchell called Mr.. Cameron's
attention to the editorial in the Press on
the subject Of the Objectionable nomina-
tions, that contained the views OF MIR.
Marshall, candidate for congressman
at.large, on the removal of Mr.. Sullivan.
The senator read the editorial and said,
so far as ex-Collector Wiley, Of the Ninth
district is concerned, there was cause for
his removal. Jackson he regarded as
man OF irreproacbable character, and he
should insist upon his confirmation. A
member of the delegation, who has con-
versed with the senior senator on the sub
iect of the contested nominations, says
| that he does not believe there is any gen.
eral demand for the retention of either
Sullivan or Wiley. Their successors were
both nominated prior to the convention,
and the new appointees met with the ap-
probation of all representatives excepting
those Independents who would not be
satisfied with any appointment that MIR.
Cameron was supposed to bave influenced.
He does not think the withdrawal of Jack
son and Kaufman would tend to smooth
over any difference in tho party, because
the Independents who are fighting him
personally would never credit him with
any disposition to yield a point. On the
contrary, they would regard it as victory
accomplished by their threats, and would
take the occasion to renew war on every
Pennsylvania appointment that the presi-
dent might see fit to make from within the
ran ks of the regular organization.
This gentleman says Mr.. Cameron feels
that the representatives of the state have
nominated ticket that every Republican
can support. Every demand made by tie
Independents, as tho result of the peace
conference, has been granted. Three Of
the candidates on the ticket are Independ-
ents, and ifin tho face of tho fair spirit
shown at Harrisburg, gentlemen who have
heretofore acted with tho Republican
party feel they can best promote its inter-
ests by opposing it, the senator is power
less to do anything more. This gentleman
said Mr.. Cameron felt disappointed that
he had received no credit for his effort to
bring about good feeling between the fac
tons, but he presumed every disposition
manifested by the regular organization to
correct the abuses complained of by the
Independents would be considered a con-
cession wrung by force from the Regulars,
and not an honest endeavor to keep all
elements in accord for tho benefit of the
party in the state and to the credit Of the
Republican party of the nation.

A GREAT

The present era is distinguished for
the application of science to useful pur-
poses. The devices that have been in
vented for the preservation OF perishable
articles Of food are numerous and re-
markable. Professor Barff, an English
chemist, announces to the Society Of Arts
that he has discovered a new antiseptic
compound, tasteless and colorless, which,
by extensive experiment, has been proved
to be efioacious in preserving a large
number Of staple articles of human diet.
Professor Barf calls his compound
boroglyceride, consisting of glycerine,
the water of which has been expelled
and replaced by anhydrous boracic acid,
forming a new compound. The London
Times editorially says that the discov-
erer exhibited to his audience "a table
covered with various articles of food
preserved by this method--pigeons, tur-
ties, fruits from Jamaica, sardines from
Spain, Holsters, behring's, sprats, fowls,
pheasants, a tongue, oysters, beef and
mutton" These had "all been kept for
periods ranging from a few weeks to
several months, and in none of them,
either to the taste or smell, was there
the slightest evidence of decomposition"

II EILL.NATURED "sENrINEL."

The Eureka SENTINEL, says the Nlr-
ginia Chronicle, is never happy except
when saying something ill-natured of the
Comstock. 1t has from time to time
started unfounded stories concerning the
mines. Its latest achievement in this
line is an interview with a mythical ex-
pert, who is alleged to think that the
southend mines will never be pumped
out, and that the northend claims have
already proved to be failures. The SEN
TrNEL should learn that anything which
hurts the Comstock abroad, is also a
detriment to Eureka and every other
mining camp in the State.
The Chronicle is altogether mistaken
in ~attributing vicious motives to the Sen.
TIyEL in the discussion of the Comstock
mines and their management. As ex.
planned in Thursdays issue, the SEyT1-
MEL has not gone beyond its legitimate
journalistic province. The welfare OF
Eureka is, of course, directly involved
in that of Virginia City. We appre-
ciate this fully. The Chronicle will find
our reply to the Enterprise, just re-
ferred to, ample and satisfactory.

A REPUBLICAN sYLLOGISM.

A San Francisco attorney, Republican
in sentiment. is reported as saying to a
Democratic brother: "You said once
the negro never should vote, but the
great Republican party said they should,
and they did, and you have to walk up
to the polls with them to-day. Now you
say the Cinnamon shan't vote, but the
great Republican party says they shall,
and You have got to come to it. You
have got to be educated to it once more,
and we shall educate you" The logic of
which is: The Republicans have made
citizens of the negroes. This is a good
thing; hence it will be a good thing to
treat Cinnamon in the same way. When
the judgment of the voters of the United
States is next registered at the polls. the
universal brotherhood hoffman party will
have the undistributed middle of their
fallacious argument pointed out to them.
They will find out that, in the matter of
citizenship, there is a material difference
between a negro and a Chinaman.

the original plan Of inscribing her name

to her hearts content. Some came in
shabby clothes, some stretched themselves
at full length on the sofa and made them

THE CASE.

The suit OF Hallet kilbourn against
John G. Thompson, which is now being
tried in Washington, and summed up by
the New York Herald, presents some
highly important points of constitutional
law. The beginning of the controversy
dates back to 1876, when a committee OF
the House of Representatives was inves-
tigating the affairs OF the Washington
real estate pool. kilbourn was summoned
as a witness and refused to answer
certain questions put to him. The mat
ter was reported to the House, which adj
Judged him guilty of contempt and or
dered him to jail, where he was confined
fortv-iye days. He was then released
on a writ of habeas corpus, and there
upon brought suit for false imprison-
ment against Speaker Kerr, ~Sergeant-at-
Arms Thompson and all exceptone OF the
investigating committee. Speaker Kerr
died, and the action as against him
ahated. The case against the remaining
defendants went to the United States
Supreme Court, which held that the
affairs of the real estate pool were not
within the jurisdiction Of the House,
and hence that that body had no con-
stitutional authority to require hilbourn
to testify or punish him for contempt.
The arrest was therefore declared illegal
and the Sergeant-at-Arms who made it
By order Of the House was held to be la
bic for false imprisonment. The other
defendants, however, were shielded by
reason Of the fact that they We're men,
bers of the House. They had reported
the case to the House and had voted
for the resolution ordering the i'm
~prisonment of the witness for con-
tempt, but had taken no part in the act
nal arrest. The Supreme Court decided
that under the Constitution no Senator
or Representative can be held to answer
or be questioned in any other place for
any resolution offered IN congress-, any
speech or report made or any vote cast
there, though the Court intimated that
proceedings Of an extraordinary, revolu-
tionary or high handed character might
perhaps be regarded as an exception to
this rule. The suit was therefore dis
missed as against all of the defendants
except sergeant-at-Arms Thompson, and
against him kilbourn brought his case
before a jury. The jury awarded him
damages to the amount of 800, 900.
Judge McAllister, as reported in this
mornings dispatches, has set the verdict
of the jury aside, thus happily putting
an end to the serious looking farce.
