A One.Sided Debate i'm the Senate.

One.Sided Debate i'm the Senate.
EXPECTATIONS OF 4 BRILLIANT DISPLAY OF oRATORY
NOT REALIZED.
The silence OF the democratic Senators upon the
Sherman resolutions was subject OF general COM
ment last night and to-day, and the common ex-
preston was that they adopted the wisest course
open to them. Since the opening day OF the ses-
sion no such crowd as thronged the Senate galleries
yesterday has been seen there. In anticipation OF
a bitter partisan debate and the exchange Of
savage personal thruSts, every seat was nled, and
the corridors contained many who were unable to
gain admittance. Mr.. SheTmanS speech was re-
garded as simply the prologue Mr.. Mahone's
effort was expected to start the excitement; but It
proved disappointment. His speech was made up
OF general1t1eS, delivered In liStleSS manner. He
seemed TO be performing an unpleasant task. There
was neither the fire OF arOr the earneStneSs OF
conviction about him. Even the republican Sena-
tors, as rule, did not listen, Some OF them read
the time In thecloak-room smoking The edemocratic
Senators listened in an Indifferent sort of way and
indicated their desire to avoid further discussion by
calling for vote almost before Mr.. Malone had
sat down. When the adoption OF the resolution
showed that the proceedings were at an end, the
people slowly retired, most OF them commenting
upon the extreme dryneSS OF the occasion.
Mr.. sHERMAN's sRNTLMENTs.
Mr. sherman, In the course Of his speech, said
that II the time had come when members of the
republican party, through whose agency largely the
existence OF the government had been maintained,
murdered at the ballot-box without fear on the
part or their murderers OF punishment, were
driven from their homes by outrage and terror,
and that black and white alike were subjected to
ostracism and injustice, and as party were dis
franchised, then, indeed, was patient inquiry de-
the rights and equalities OF citizens should be
maintained and enforced at every hazard. II the
Copiah resolutions were the creed OF the democratic
party in the south, then, indeed, was the war a
failure.
NE. MALONE ON THE COLOR QUESTION IN VIRGINIA.
II rejoice" said Mr.. Malone, that personal say-
cry is no longer legalzed in our own fair Eden OF
Liberty, and that all men are liberated to an even
chance In the OF life, to which God and nature
have given them the title In Virginia the coIored
people ask no more, and the white man there who
envies him this privilege and apprehendS his su-
premacy reDroacheS the intelligence and manhood
OF his own race"

The Senate committee on elections will probably
be called together about the aast OF this week to
take action for conducting the Investigation ordered
by the Sherman resolutions, but no call has yet
been issued. 1t is understood that there is some
testimony about ready to be submitted, and it is
supposed that the democrats will be compelled to
present some evidence as a defense against that
presented by the republicans. The committee Will
probably begin by hearing such testimony as can
be submitted here, and Ii that seems to justify
further proceedings, subcommittee Will be sent to
Danville and to Mississippi. A democratic Senator
said to-day that the republicans Will ''get more
than they bargained fOr' at Danville. With regard
to Copiah county, he had no knowledge Of the FACTS
but thought that an investigation will show that
more fuss has been made than the facts warrant.

OIL NOTES.

Saturdays Derrick gives the fol.
lowing account of the Agnew we'll,
the largest which has been struck in
the Balltown district for several
months. Emery g. Agnew's well on
3,195 was drilled into the sand to. day
and is reported as starting at 33 bar
rels per hour. Its location is south of
the Gartlan producers in the north.
east corner Of the same tract, and
northeast of the old Porcupine well,
No. 1, known as the "Good Friday"
well. From its being large produc-
er it looks as if there was another
spur running in that direction from
the Balltown District. 1t is a quar-.
ter Of a mile southeast of the Porcu-
pine, No. 7, dry hole"
We learn that the estimate of the
Derrick is considerably under estimat-
ed. The well started at the rate Of
5S barrels per hour, and at last ac-
counts was doing 90 barrels. The
drill has penetrated the sand only
about four feet. The 81 acres on
which this well is located is a part Of
several hundred acres owned by Pro.
per q Agnew, and is lot chosen by
Judge Proper as reserve for himself
and Agnew when there were several
thousand acres to select from. He
has always contended that it would
turn out the best territory in the
field, and although indications were
often against his theories, he was still
unshaken in his faith. The Judge be-
lieves that the largest well yet to
come will be on this same piece at the
mouth of Wildcat Run.
The council run we'll at this place,
is again on a stand still.

The CochrantoD Times says
From now until the first of July is
the usual time for sowing buckwheat
with our farmers. Whether it is be.
cause the crop was short and the price
high last year or not, the farmers of
this vicinity, the centre of the best
buckwheat growing section of the
United States, are sowing more than
the usual amount this year. From
present indications, and taking the
price of wheat into consideration, the
crop will be larger and the price low
er than last year.
