According TO the views of the lead

cOnspire 10 overthrow and break mp
our National Government does not
-cOnst itu.e treason, and the conspirators
are not traitors. As the Senators from
this State did not open their mouths
during the progress Of the debate, II
may be inferred that they regard the
matter in the same light as their Demo-
cratic cumpatriots, and look upon JEFF
ferson Davis as being more sinned
against III n SHINING. The standpoint
from which his actions ar- viewed,
make Il very material difference. To
Is Jefferson Davis has always appear
cd as the blacklist of traitors, and We
can never regard him in any other
light No man ever lived who deserved
q greater degree OF pdolic odium, and
yet the men who ~ regard him may be
rebuked, and ostracisoi in a very short
time.
To -peak of him and the late rebellion
in cnndemnatory terms will soon con-
stitute crime at Washington. The
Southern brigsdiers will be securely
seated in the saddle, and the Northern
doughtaces will be ridden over rough

A cowH1DINe, NOT A DUEL.

Mr.. Gresham Assaults Mr.. Gihon on
the Street in tho Presence OF
Friends.
The corner of Twentieth and Q streets
was the scene yesterday morning of q
cowhiding affair which terminated n
quarrel that at ono timo looked rs
though it might end in q duel. The
trouble that caused the affair grew out OF
q theater party last Tuesday. Mr.. Will
Gresham and Mr.. Albert Gihon wore the
parties involved. An article was pub.
lished in a Sunday paper purporting to
give an account of the affair, which until
then was virtually settled. The princi-
pals denied the truth of tho story as pub.
lished, but their friends, by injudicious
gossip, revived the warlike aspect, which
ended in tho cowhiding. Mr.. Gresham,
accompanied by II. T. Smith and
w. Ruff went to tho corner of
Twentieth and Q streets in q carriage
Mr.. Gresham sprang out aud found Mr..
Gihon ON the corner, whom he proceeded
to cowhide in orthodox style. Mr.. Ores.
ham struck Mr.. Gihon several times, and
the latter sensibly ran away, and the ven-
detta was at an end.
Gihon was not badly hurt. He gives as
MS Blue OF tne story tne following YER
sion: Ho was suddenly assaulted at the
corner Of Twentieth and @ streets by the
throe men in question, who beat him over
the head with clubs, with which they
were armed. Before any of the neighbor:
who saw the circumstance could render
any assistance the three assailantsj jumped
into tho carriage and were hurriedly
driven of. Warrants were at once sworn
out by Medical Director Albert Gihon fol
the arrest Of w. A. l.. Gresham, No. 1907
X street; Hubbard Il. Smith, No. TIC
Tenth street, aud VIM. Ii. Ruff, No. 1882

1t is denied by Mr.. Gresham's friend:
that any clubs were carried or used.
Messrs. Gresham, Smith, and Ruff were
arrested by the officers Of the fourth pre-.
cinct station and released on $40 collat.

X. Ward, the Alderney proprietor, who
had been drawn on tho petit jury and
was being examined rs to his competency.
well, l have been convicted of being
a nuisance" meekly replied Mr.. Ward,
but tho answer convulsed the court and
audience with laughter. There were very
few present in the room who were not
aware of how the gentleman had been
driven by injunction from where he was
conducting legitimate business and
compelled to locate elsewhere, aud his
crack back ut tho court who forced him
to make tho departure came in so neatly
that it scored one in his favor. Judge
Macarthur was by no means insensible
to the burden which Mr.. Ward has had
imposed upon him, and very kindly ex-
cused him from Jury duty.

what MIR. VIM. Saunders Says OF the
Display at New Orleans.

Display at New Orleans.
Mr.. William Saunders, the able super
intendeut and representative of the agri-
culir."i department at the New Orleans
exposition, returned on Saturday morning,
and 10 a REPUBLICAN, reporter, In speak
inH Of the exposition, said that to tho
general visitor IL will seem equal TO that
Of the centennial at Philadelphia in 1876.
A detailed investigation would probably
lead to the conclusion that in the display
of agricultural products and the exhibits
Of the states IL is somewhat superior to
the Philadelphia exhibit, In the
department of education IL is most
decidedly vastly superior. In
horticulture IL is so meagre as
to bo put down as failure. In pomology.
so far as displaying tho fruits Of tho
orchards Of the east and west aud the
orange groves of tho south, the collection
has at times been simply wonderful in
variety and quantity. This portion Is
constantly being renewed from time to
time as fruits decay, new supplies coming
by car loads. so that 1t is sometimes better
than 1t Ia at other times.
The finishing Of tho surrounding
grounds and the formation of roads and
WhiAn h6o uoth BISdtiJ hhut III lhct
nearly wholly retarded on account of tho
continued wot weather.
1t is perhaps too late now for anything
to be done that will greatly effect the
general appearance Of the grounds this
season, but the grass is becoming green
and the trees and shrubs, which have
been put In place, are growing into i'm
proved appearances. ..
Tho government exhibit 10 quito as
interesting as that shown at Philadel-
phia, and, considering the limited time
in which IL was gotten together, 10 a very
interesting and instructive collection,
aud conveys fairly good idea of tho
workings Of the various departments OF
the government.
As whole the Exposition will disap-
point those who suppose that it IS q fail
ure. All things sconsidcred--the short time
in which II has beon built up, the small
amount Of money expended upon IL, aud
tho determined force and push in sur
mounting difficulties by those in admin
istrativo command-it 10 safe to say that
1t is unequalled by any similar exposi.
tion of which we have any knowledge.
If the Exposition could be carried over
until next December and then again open
ed, the knowledge of the wonderful display
being meanwhile widely difused, the at
tendance of people would then be large
enough to pay all expenses and profit
besides. And the advantages sure to re.
suit to tho industries of the country
would justify the country in aiding th,
management to the extent of continuing
the exhibition for another year.

THE NIGHT LoDe1Ne HOUSE.
Quiet hut Effective Work Being Done

The Night Lodging House since its
opening, Dec. % last, to date has accom-
modatod 1850 persons, and distributed
2,4OO meals. The average number ad-
mitted nightly during tto past few weeks
has been 10. During tho past winter
there have been more females applying
for lodging than ever before known. In
some cases whole families have been
cared for. A notable fact is that but few
colOrod persons havo so far been regis
tered. Contributions of cast off clothing,
especially underwear, are solicited by the
managers. No sickness or disease has
appeared thore owing TO tho severe rules
governing the admission of applicants.
A matron is much needed TO caro- for the

modated. Occasionally broken down
