Lamar, as the report goes, white with ex-
citementr and shaking his fist and saving
the air, said:
"Mr. PRESIDENT have just stepped into
the Senate and have not yet heard the resolu-
ton which is under discussion. I presume it
refers toa publication of some papers relating
to the war Of secession that are now on file in
the War Department. [ should not
have made any remarks, except to have fol-
lowed and to have given my vote silently upon
this question, but for the speech | have lis
tened to from the senator of Ohio. That
speech, sir, is marked by fragrant inaccura-
cies in his statements of the issues between
General Sherman and Mr.. Davis.
General Sherman WAS betrayed by his feel
ings and by transformation into an allegation
and charge against Jefferson Davis that he
cannot sustain and that no man can ever sus-
tain, and which is not the truth.
owe of the South have surrendered upon
all the questions which divided the two sides
in that controversy. We have given up the
right of the people to secede from this Union;
we have given up the right of each State to
judge for itself of the attractions of the Con-
stitution and the mode of redress; we have
given up the right to control our own domes-
tic institutions We fought for all these, and
we lost in that controversy; but no man shall,
in my presence, call jefferson Davis traitor
without my responding with stern and en-
phatic denial"
These are the last recorded words Of this
extraordinarily conservative" statesman.
How warmly he defends jefferson Davis, and
how eloquently he talks of the ''rights" Of
secession and of "control of our domestic

dered," while he says with the utmost warmth
that nobody can call jeff Davis traitor SIN
my presence" without "stern and emphatic
denial" We submit that if Secretary Lamar
is to be Haunted in the face of the loyal people
of the North as the greatest Conservative
man in the South, and Of the Democratic
party, we are warranted in the inference that
the general average of Southern and Demo
cratic Conservatism is yet very far from what
it should be- if the Nation is to DO nodded
into any safe and patriotic homogeneity.
There are other members of Mr.. Cleveland's
Cabinet whose Conservatism" is open to sus
picion, notably Mr.. Garland and Mr.. Bayard,
but we are not asked to consider them. An
forced, not because of desire on our part to
expose the old skeleton in the Democratic
closet, but to answer the insolent sheer against
the Republican press of the North, which
dared to intimate that possibly the Union
soldiers of the Nation would not feel the most
was liable to be appealed to the final decision
of a man who, less than three months ago, stood
up in his place in the Senate to eulogize Jef-
ferson Davis, and to proclaim the deathless
and indestructible fright of secession.

THE great statue Liberty Enlghtening
the World" will arrive in this country within
two months. The shame Of having failed to
provide for its reception will then be upon the
people. The citizens of New York are re-
sponsible for this thing. There is wealth
enough in that city to pay for the pedestal out
of hand, and never feel the effort. 1t is a
shame that the work is not complete.

THERE is hope yet for another Presbyterian
church in Washington, possibly the one on New
York avenue. A paper of that city says it is
the general impression that Mr.. Cleveland will
hire pew in another church, retaining that in
DR.. Sunderlands, also, in order that he may
avoid the notoriety consequent upon attendance
at only one place of worship. The Presidents
well-known shrinking modesty probably gives
rise to the supposition that he will play "hide-
and SEEK with the crowd by owning two pews
