FROM WASHINGTON.
A Lively Tilt on the Floor of the
Senate.
Staid Senators indulge in a Very
Personal Discussion.
The House Determined to Adjourn
by the Last of July.
Especial to the Press.l

WASHINGTON, July 49, the liveliest tilt
which has taken place on the floor of the
Senate for long time occurred this after
noon during the debate upon the oleomar-
garine bill. between ingalls, of Kansas, and
Miller of New York. ingalls,, who was sup
posed to favor the bill, took a stand against
it by contending that frauds were perpetrated
in the manufacture of butter as well as in it's
imitation; that farmers and dairymen needed
the restraining hand of law as well as the
buyer and bogus manufacturer. Miller sent
to the clerks desk and had read letter
from ingalls, to his constituents in Kansas, in
which he said he was against bogus butter,
as he was against bogus politics, and indi-
eating that he should support the Miller bill.
Ingalls, retorted that whatever he may have
said or done he had never presented the
shameful and disreputable spectacle of man,
aging and advocating on the floor of the Sen
ate a bill in which he had personal
and pecuniary interests claimed that the
Senator from New York was proprietor
of an extensive dairy farm, and from the
sales of its products of butter and cheese
received a large income. Such corruption it
had not been his pleasure to indulge in. Mr..
Miller replied with much warmth that while
the Senator might shield himself behind the
Constitution and parliamentary privileges,
he would not dare repeat elsewhere what
he said on the floor of the Senate. 1t was
true that while he owned dairy and stock
farm, he conducted it for an experimental
purpose in the interest of farmers, and for
every dollar received from it he spent ten.
The bill would not affect him pecuniarily
one farthing The relations of the dis
tinguished Senators may be somewhat
strained for the balance of the session, but
it is safe to say no blood will be shed.
Mr.. Morrison says today that the ways and
means committee will report next week the
resolution for adjournment on the 31st; that
the House will consider only such measures
as will provoke no debate in the Senate,
leaving that body to devote itself to the ap-
preparation bills. The Senate will probably
amend the resolution SO that adjournment
can take place August I'd or Sd.

The beardess picture of Abraham
Lincoln recently published in the Gem
tu1y, has curious history, says
carp" in the Cleveland Lcddor.
Abraham Lincoln usually wore q full
beard, and few men remember him
without 1t, save at the period at which
this picture was taken. lie was in
duced to shave off his beard by the
request of little girl in New York
State. The little girl wrote to him,
and told him she liked him very much,
but that she thought he would look a
great deal better IL he would shave off
his beard. Shortly after this Lincoln
passed through the village in which
this girl lived. He met her, aud she
again preferred her request. and he
promised to oblige her. When he
came back TO Washington he took off
his beard, and his friends say the re.
suit was that he was homelier than
ever. 1t was not success, and he let
1t grow again.

WHERE INGERSoLL WAS BORN.
RecoIiections of tho Family-young
Roberts Early Discipline.

hOberts Curiy Dlsclpiincs
Says an Elmira special to the New York
Tribune: In the little village of Dresden,
N. Y, elk miles west of Penn Yam, is the
birthplace of Robert G.. Ingersoll. The
building is an old-fashioned one story and n
half house, built nearly sixty years ago, and
one of the first erected in Yates County
The house is now the property of a Dr.
Lampneau, and occupied as a tenant house
The room where the great unbeiever first
saw the light of day is low apartment,
about ten by twelve feet In size. Several of
the older residents recollect the Ingersoll
family, although their remembrance is not
distinct, and only one person, an old man Of
seventy, seems to remember Robert. Those
who did know the family say that 1t was
composed Of Mr.. and Mrs. Ingersoll and
four sons, of whom Robert was the
youngest. His father was the pastor Of the
Universalist Church, and was described rs q
strict discipllnarian, often carrying his no.
tions Of propriety into extremes. With
them Sunday began at suDdown on Satur-
day night, aud ended with the first gray
streaks of dawn on Monday During that
period the children were scarcely allowed to
stir from the house, and were kept poring
over their Bible with their father. 70 his
fathers vigorous discipline may be attrlb-
uted Roberts present principles.
