The State Senate has just gotten
requesting Senator Malone to resign. The
spf eches of the Democratic Senators we're
as hot as. and pretty much in the strain
of the editorials in be Democratic papers
during the campaign, though this extract
of one of them goes little abe ID of any.
thing we met with in the campaign the
S-nator abiding to Malone sud-
Let his soul be sunk beneath turbulent pillows of
vitrioc fire. ever rolling in wrath to the wild music
of bowling storm.
The debate was anticipated in by Sem
ator Newberry. who led off. and Senators
Meredith, Kniner, Diggs and other Dem
ocrats, and Senators Bailey and Powell
and other Coalitionists. 1t is true that,
outside of adopting the resolutions them
selves, the Senate could have as protitably
spent its time by adjourning to the Capitol
square fountain and pouring water on the
back of the brass swan there, but it gave
every body a chance IT, free their minds.
The fact is that no amount of speaking
could induce the people of Virginia to
think less of Malone than they do to-day,
and no amount of Democratic denuncia-
ton can ever make the late boss think less
of himself than he does. The House of
Delegates when it took up the resolutions
Monday was "strictly business" and pass
ed them without speeches on either side.
Here are the resolutions:
Whereas. it is self-evidentIy improper
for any man to hold the honorable and
responsible position of United States Sem
ator who, from either inca pacigy or indis-
position cannot, or will not, honestly and
faithfully represent the State from which
he holds his commission; and whereas.
General William Malone was elected by
he legislature of Virginia to represent
IN part said State in the Senate of the
United States; and whereas he, instead
of attending to the duties of his Senatori-
al flee abspnted himself from his post
of duiy for about five months while the
Senate of which he was member was in
session, and spent that time in Richmond
for the purpose of debating to and con-
trolling the legislation of Virginia, and of
so controlling it as to advance his own
personal and selfish ends at the sacrifice
of the honour ard best interests of his
said s. ate and whereas the said General
William Malone claimed to he "A Damo-
crat before he was elected to repres
VIRGINIA in the United States Senate, and
boasted of his democracy in the Senate
chamber after his election; and whereas.
