The Michigan SenatOrsIiip.

DETROIT, Feb. l5.-After the first bal
lot yesterday for Senator, the L"gisla
ture took recess until p. M.
Upon reassembling five ballots were
taken. On the first two no change was
made in Ferry's vote, bu, on the fourth
seven Fusionists went over to him, run
ming his vote up to SO. On the fifth
ballot there was deep interest as one
more accession was scored from the Fu.
sion ranks, making Ferry's total $40
less than necessary to choice.
The sixth ballot was taken amid much
excitement. Eight new recruits from the
opposition ranks again recorded their
votes for Ferry, but one of his staunch
supporters. who deserted him under
similar circumstances on the last days's
voting. before the recent ten-day recess,
voted against him. The joint convention
then adjourned for the day.
The last vote stood: Ferry So, Judge
Nm. Newton (Dem. of Flint 35, Stout
5, Willets IL, Burrows s, (Republican)
scattering lion seven different candi.
dates.
Only one ballot was taken to-day at
the joint session of the Legislature,
which resulted as follows: Ferry AZ,
Newton 20, with 13 other Democratic
votes scattering; Burrows II, Cutchen
7, Willets 8, with 8 Republican votes
scattering. The result of to-days vote
makes it apparent that new deal is in.
evitable. and that Ferry will probably
be withdrawn.

An Okolona correspondent of the

school of Mrs. j. L. MATTHEWS, an
instructress well known and appre-
ciated in Aberdeen, in the following
language:
Gatlin st. Seminary, Mrs. J. L.
Matthews principal, has enrolled
ninety pupils and has no rival in its
home advantages aud comforts, we'll
as training school for mental and
moral excellence. The boarding de-
partment is filed with pupils from
the northern and middle parts of the
State. Mrs. M. is highly cultered,
noble and self sustaining woman, and
unparalleled success has crowned her
efforts. Miss Barrett, of Mobile, her
assistant, is beautiful, accomplished
and talented lady,a thorough linguist
and teaches German, Latin and
French, and has charge of elocution
and art department. Mrs. Mazda
Smith has charge of music and is a
vocalist of the highest order, giving
lessons in vocalization to private
classes in the city, as we'll as con-
nected with the institution. As I sit
beneath the roof OF Gatlin Seminary,
whose halls echo to the merry voices
of childhood and beautiful winsome
girlhood, memory carries me back to
the beautiful dead past, where slum-
bers with the silent forget me not
the pure loves and bright hopes of
life's young morn and brings to mind
the sweet refrain,
"WhO can so forecast the years
To make with loss gain to match,
Or reach thrO' time head to catch
The far off interest of tears!"

The New York B ptists Weekly printed
an editorial last week entitled "Heathen
Talk in Congress. Quoting few SEN
tences from the remarks made by Mr..
Ingalls, on the occasion of the Hill me-
mortal services, the editor concludes as
follows:
Mr.. Ingalls,, We believe, is an infdel,
and these gloomy, hopeless utterances
htly embody his sentiments In relation to
"A future life. If he had chosen another
occasion for their expression we would
not question his right to announce them.
But 10 do so i'll connection with the
solemn commemorative services of o
christian Senator, was n piece of pure
impertinence Mr.. Ingalls, views are
simply heathenish. Instead of accept.
ing the doctrine of future life so dis
tinctly taught by Christ, he harbors the
conflicting coujectures of the old hcathen
philosophers whose minds aternated
between hope and fear, and is content
TO initiate them in their nmcntable
hesitation and doubt.
TO which Mr.. Ingalls, replied:
UNITED STATES SENATE CHAMBER,

A. s. Pahon, ID. d., New York City.
SIR: l have received the marked copy
of the BAPTIST Weekly of February s,
which you were good enough to send
me.
In my brief tribute to the memory of
Senator Hill, whom honored MS n man
and loved as friend, | presented those
reflections which rise in all thoughtful
minds when meditating upon the i'm
penetrable mystery which wells the
futnre state of man from all except the
editor of the B ptia WeehM
| suggested the argument for immor.
tality, based upon the imperfection and
incompleteness of all earthly careers,
even the longest and most fortunate,
unless supplemented and rounded out
hereafter, and affirmed that from this
standpoint | knew of no one whose life
was so rich in the prophecy of future
existence as that of Senator Hill.
/ said further, that though his sun
went down at noon, it sank amid the
prophetic splendors of an eternal dawn.
Upon this you publish detached para
graphs of my speech and tell your read
ers, if you have any, that lam heather
and nm intidel. If you are n Christian,
l prefer to be a heather. If your reli.
glon prompts or permits you, without
provocation, to libel those with whose
views upon the great problems of hu
man destiny you do not agre', l pre-
fer to be an infidel. But l am neither
the one nor the other.
[ have had some doubts hitherto
whether eternal punishment WAS con-
sistent with infinite love, but am quite
sure that if there is no hell for such
bigoted slanderers and malignant liars
rs you, there ought to be. With great
respects your oDedient servant.

Railroad Commissioners.

Twenty-Five of the most populous
and leading States of the Union reg
ulate railroad charges through the
agency of commissioners. Such a
law was violently opposed and de.
feated during the last session of the
Mississippi Legislature as hurtful to
the railroad boom then and now
sweeping over the State Water
ford Express.
The States that do the regulating,
as above stated, ale fairly abounding
in railroads--they are to be seen
everywhere and on every side; one
is never out Of ear shot of the sounds
which follow their comings and mark
their goings, and under circumstan-
ces like these it might be deemed
advisable for the States thus grid
ironed with railroads to regulate
them when they become too obstrep-
erous, through the agency of COM
missioners.
But the case of Mississippi, at the
last session of the Legislature, when
it was proposed to throw hampering
restrictions around the new railway
enterprises, which were looking for
encouragement at the hands of our
law makers, was altogether different
from the twenty-five States above
mentioned. She had no railroads to
speak of; they were well nigh as
scarce within her borders as carriages
in Venice, and for this reason, among
others, it was deemed expedient by
the Legislature to do no act that
might give shock to the capital that
was ready, under favorable condi-
tions, to be invested in railway en-
terprises in the State that needed
them so sadly. And so the law reg
ulating railroad charges, et cetera,
through the agency of commissions
ers, was violently opposed and de-
feated then and there, rs we thought
it ought to have been at the tme,a
as we still think.
Men who had the capital would
not have invested dollar in n Mis-
sissippl railroad had the measure
become a law which met it's death at
the hands of the brave, true men who
composed majority of our last State
Legislature. Tie measure thus de.
feated would in the case of it's success
have proved hurtful to the RAILROAD
boom then and now sweeping ovel
the State,' and in consideration Of
this fact, we were glad exceedingly
when we heard the news as it came
flashing over the wires, that by stress
of circumstances the measure ir
question was forced to turn its face
to the wall and die the death thai
brought gladness TO the hearts o
thousands - Yaz0o Ueruld

THE st. Louis Globe Democrat has
Washington dispatch, saying that
an official of the Government who has
given great attention to the questions
Of finance, especially silver coinage
and production, has stated that had it
not been for secret instructions given
to the Commissioners to the internal
conference, European countries would
have come into an arrangement for
fixing the status of silver coinage
throughout the world. The reason
it failed in reality was that the ad-
ministration was hostile to silver and
the American Commissioners were
sent with the understanding that they
were to hinder and not encourage ;and
that foreign Governments were now
holding off in the matter, because
they understood from this policy that
silver coinage here was to be of short
duration, and that the Government
was actually opposed to the policy of
coming silver.-Jackson Clarion.
To show the utter worthlessness of
the Democrats information
upon this subject, it is only necessary
to call attention to the fact that the
u. S. Commission to the International
Conference consisted of Mr.. Evarts,o of
New York, Judge Thurman, of Ohio
and Ex-senator Howe, of Wisconsin
the present Post Master General.
OF these three Commissioners Messrs.
Thurman and Howe were among the
most stalwart supporters OF the silver
bill when it was before the Senate,
and both voted to carry it over the
veto of President Hayes. This being
the case is it reasonable to suppose
that Thurman and Howe would go
back on their records, and not only
give the lie to all of their former ac-
tions and professions but betray those
who voted for their confirmation, as
friends of "free coinage" by acting
under such instructions as this cores
pondent intimates were given? Is
there man in America who believes
that old Allen G. Thurman would be
a party to such conspiracy, or that
Evarts or Howe would cross the ocean
to take part in a grand conference
without being permitted absolute
freedom ofexpression in amatter upon
which both Houses of Congress had
pronounced the verdict of the people
in thunder tones =?
