SENATE ND LoRps.

American and Brlush Upper HouSes
Compared by Mr Edmunds.
From HI Speech al Montpelier.
In the short time have been in the
Senate l have seen the representatives OF
every State pass In and out. Only one
who was there in 1866, when entered, is
now a member. Thus fast the world goes
by, and it makes one feelas though he
stood alone. There has been men in
that body OF the most opposite views Of
religion, OF the most opposite views IN
politics; nevertheless, that body has al
ways been for the most part one OF great
est personal ri.ndliuess betSe iismem-
beers. There has always been in ina!
body that concord Of difference" which
is always essential to the success OF 3
Government, but which Il possi6le only IN
a Government liks ours. Again, the Or
eanization OF the Senate is different from
lLat OF any similar body in any country.
IL differs iroH the Senate Of France and
from the English Higher House. In
England that Old rule holds that, once a
Lord, always a Lord. That gives arule
Of aristocrata, not OF tie people. Such q
form OF government has continued in
England I'LL one branch has unsurped the
power, and the House Of Lolds to-day do
not dare TO reject bill sent up to them
by the Commons. While in England a
Lord asked me il our Senate dared really
to reject a bill passed by the House, and
said such proceeding by the Lords had
been unknown for years, thong constliu'
tionalIy it was tue right and duty of the
Lords 70 do itiE they wished. The evils
Of this method OF government are now
known by the Englishmen, and there &C.
tualy, at the present time, is d move
merit on foot In England to remodel the
House Of Lords on the plan Of the Senate
Of the United States. Thus the example
Of our country has taught the English
that the safest government Tor property
the safest for religion, the safest for per.
sonal liberty, the beet in every way, is
one modelled OH the government Of the
United States.

WHEELING, ". va, OCTOBER .a, 1888.


II all the Virginia deferred bonds, alias
West Virginia certificates, could be mar
keted at the present quotations, the hold
ers would realize about two millions and
half, or one.sixth Of the face value and
Of the old States claim.
According to the terms Of the settle
ment when Virginia 80 Literally set aside
a third Of her debt to follow into the
new State, e third OF her former territory,
those obligations are not to be met until
a settlement Of the debt question has been
had between the two States. Well know
ing that West Virginia never would be
willing to pay, and never could be made
to pay, any such sum as those certificates
represent, Virginia has neither sought q
settlement nor been willing to meet West
Virginia when she sought settlement.
Virginia has never shown desire to
hasten pay day on those certificates, Tor
she has never been ready to add TO West
Virginias share the indefinite but GER
tainly large amount necessary TO meet
thos. obligations.
Now, however, the idea is thrown out
that Virginia is to be in some way indem'
nified by the Wall street syndicate against
any cost to herself by reason Of the settle
ment which it is proposed to force upon
West Virginia by methods which have
been developed in outline only. 1t is
plain that the certificate holders have no
claim against the State Of West Virginia,
they can reach us only through Virgins,
and if that State has entered into an ar
rangement by which she has parted with
her equitable interest in her debt claim
against West Virginia, it does not appear
how the syndicate is going to realize on
its investment unless We place in its hands
the taxing power Of This State and invite
its agents to step in and take whatever
they can get their hands on.
Whatever may be at the bottom OF this
debt question, there is enough onthe sur
face 10 maintain interest at home. New
York capitalists and spectators think
enough OF their venture 10 put in it a
good deal OF money, some Of which has
already found its way into West Virginia,
with goodly promise OF more to come.

The country has never known the full
measure OF its indebtedness to General
Grant. He was not only successful SOL
der when there was fighting to be done;
he was not only the humane and mag
unanimous victor when his sword had con-
quered the Confederacy. He was very
much moro than this; and, his nodesty
equaling his greatness, his countrymen
have been slow to learn the whole truth,
not yet fully revealed.
A certain conversation between General
Grant and Mr.. Chauncsy NJ. Depew, now
given to the public on Mr.. Depew's
authority, presents tho Old Commander
in an attitude OF highest heroism. Not
Donelson, Vicksburg, Shiloh, or Apo
mattox reveals the height and depth Of
the courage which conironteda vengetul
President with the sacred obligation Of
soldiers word.
Grant had promised protection. Andrew
johnson demanded tho gallows for dis
tinguished rebels. Grant threw himself
between the paroled soldiers Of the Con-
iederacS and the President Of the United
States. That was real grandeur. What
nobler inspiration for the sculptor who is
to perpetuate in bronze or marble the
real man Grant, He will never find
more statuesque pose than on that
eupreme occasion in the White House.
The Coulederacy had lain down its
arms on Grants promise, and he was as
determined that his promise should be
kept as he was that the Union should be
preserved. 1t was an hour when the
country needed strong man, and tho
country found him in Grant. 1t was the
same lofty purpose, the same Unborn
sense OF right, which moved him TO oppose
with all his force the Presidents extreme
shoot in the other direction when he pro.
posed to convene at once a Congress in
which the Southern States should be rep
resented on an equality with the loyal
States.
The full story of Grants greatness has
not been told. 1t will come to the world
at last, and then in the revised roll Of
fame Grants name will be written higher
than any contemporary Of his has ever
dreamed Of.

How u Dumb Animal stuck to n speakable
One.
Yargar,t z. Pnsion IN The YOuths Companion.
On the morning OF which l speak, the
whols cavalcade, hunters, horses, baggage
agons,sarvantsapd many pack othOunds,
were gathered together in our stable.ysrd,
awaiting the signal for starting. Horns
were sounding, dogs were baying, guns
were Gathering, eager hunters were laugh
ing and talking, aud general excitement
was over all the establishment. Fritz's
spirits were extremely high. He sprang
up dozen times and kissed his masters
riding horse, brought his master his
riding whip and boots, and seemed fairly
beside himself with joy. But Fritz was
not be OF the hunting party. On the
mountains he was out his elements, and
only maIred the sport so be was to be left
at home. But his master could not bear
to tell him this, and determined not to start
with the party, but make detour and slip
away unperCeiyed. Consequently he had
his horse led round to the front gate OF
the house, intending to mount there, but
Fritz was so alert and vigilant that 1t was
impossible to e!ude his watchiulness. So
his master took him aside, and said in a
low but impressive tone Of voice: Fritz,
you are not to 20 with me-" II the dog
had been shot, think he could scarcely
have fallen to the ground more suddenly,
az il deprived OF life. 1t Was at the end OF
a long hall, that commanded the front
door and front gate, where the dog had
dropped. His master patted him Affect
ionately, passed on aud mounted his
horse, but Fritz no more moved than il
he were dead. His master called to him:
"Good-by, Fritz" but he lay motionleSs.
The household gathered about'ht and
tried to comfort him.
"Look up, Fritzp said. "See your
master is speaking to you," but he buried
his face between his paws and seemed not
to hear, =,
When some one said. "Papa is gone"
a low moan bunt from the dog, and this
finally became a sobbing cry which did
not cease until after midday. TWAS one
of the most piteous sounds ever heard.
We smoothed and caressed him, and
brought him delicacies we knew he liked,
but he wei dead TO our comfortings, and
refused all food, until, a3 night drew on,
we began to grow little superstitous,
least the dogs grief should presage some
harm to the master. The next day, how
ever, he grew more reconciled, but only
recovered his spirits upon the return OF
his master, whom he was ready to devour
with joy.
