Mr.. Hallett by great effort COM
posed himself sufficiently to meet his
guests; but if his lips were pale and he
turned away from them to shade his
eyes with his hand, they saw nothing
suspicious I'M it.
On the contrary, their conviction
that he was thinking of their father. OF
whom this grey-haired, stately gentle
man was the living image, drew them
towards him. They lowered near his
chair, they left off speaking when they
heard his voice, and, when complain
ing of fatigue, he rose to 60 to his
room, moved by the same impulse,
both girls ran forward to put their
arms about his neck and hold up their
fair young faces for q goodnight kiss.
It was plain that he had been mis-
taken when he fancied they had come
to wrest his home from him, but he
was none the happier for the knowl-
edge. He tried to appear calm and
cheerful to respond to the affection
with which his nieces were disposed to
regard him; but when they talked-as
they did freely-of the trials and strug-
giles they and their mother had gone
through, before and after their be-
reavement, his heart tainted within
him, and his remorse would become
overpowering.
John Hallett would fain have made
atonement. He thrust into Nell's
hand q roll Of notes; but it was
promptly returned.

SENATE, Jan. 10 Mr.. Harrison's resolu-
ton Of yesterday, to admit Mr.. Moody Of
Dakota to the floor of the senate was laid
before the senate. Mr. Vest said
He yielded to no man In courtesy to po-
litical or personal opponent, but thought
the people whom Mr.. Moody represented
had not been courteous to the senate, and
believed that courtesy should be reciprocal.
These people had acted against the deliber-
ate parliamentary action of congress, and
had taken action that Mr.. Vest declared to
be revolutionary. He denied that Dakota
was state, either de jure or de facto, or
that it could become 50 without the author
ity Of congress- He quoted remarks Of
Judge Campbell to the effect that Dakota
had the right to become q state in spite of
congress. Referring to Mr.. Harrison's al
lusfons yesterday to Thomas ii. Benton of
Missouri. Mr.. Vest denied that there was
any similarity between the case of the ad-
mission of Missouri and the case presented
for Dakota. Mr.. Benton had discharged
his duty - . senator, and Missouri took
pride in his distinguished public service;
but Mr.. Vest did not agree with Benton liv-
ing, and did not agree with him dead It
would be peculiar If Utah should come

tho president had, without {he
ate, in violation Of the constitution,

state commerce; to reimburse territories
