The schoolmaster of the Senate.

Washington, March 24-Ex. Senator
Hood of Massachusetts,, who is the school,
master of the senate, made himself very
odious to Senator Coke, of Texas, to-day.
The debate was upon the bill to increase
the salary of United States judges, and
Coke wanted to add an amendment for
tho purpose OF preventing judges from
committing that q ful CRIME of nepotism,
which senators all can practice without
alarm. The clumsy way in which ne
worded it was, that no person connected
with the judges by the ties OF consanguin-
ity or affinity shall hold any position in
the courts over which they preside.
"Does the senator accept the scriptur.
al doctrine Of the origin of tho human
race?" asked Mr.. Hoar. "Does be &C.
knowledge Adam as the father of man.
kind?"
II will discuss that question at some
other time," replied Coke. testify.
IF the senator does believe that" con
tinued Mr.. Hoar, "he knows that every
human being is related by ties Of con-
saDgnlnity and affinity"
This was more than man of Coke's
desh and blood could stand. He got red
in the face and houndered around for O
while trsine to say something very sar.
castle. but couldn't. and had to content
himself with telling Hoar that the terms
that he used were understood by every.
body but the senator from Massachu
setts, and no one could expect to please
his fastidious taste. Hoar then tried ia
help matters, but only made them worse,
BY offering an amendment prohibiting
Judges from appointing relatives within
the degree of first cousins.

Col. G. 81. Lamborn, land commission
or of the Northern Pacific, says there is
no probability of any hostile action be.
ing taken by congress in regard to the
Northern Pacific land grant. The gen.
eral impression now is that the action
heretofore taken by the house has been
for political effect only. During the
past few weeks, however, the leading
men OF both parties lave given the mat
ter much thought, and they are now dis
posed to doubt the advlsability of an
indiscriminare forfeiture. The tone of
sentiment in congress is much more rea.
sonable than it was supposed to be a
month or two ago. No lands earned by
actual construction will be forfeited.
Some forfeiture bills may pass the house
but it is doabtfal if any such measures
will get through the senate. The very
conservative report of Senator Morgan,
from the senate committee on public
lands, on the subject of forfeiture, and
proposing the passage Of bill by con-
gress that all questions of forfeitures be
taken before the circuit courts of the
United States, the colonel says, has had
the effect of inducing many congress-
men to hesitate before giving congress
the power to confscate lands of railroads
to which the railroads have attained
legal rights. This is now generally con-
sidered question to come before the
courts rather than congress.

very likely that the bill will not be
