CHARLESTON, W. Va, February lj.-The
proceedings Of the joint assembly to-dly
awakened more interest than has been mani.
festd since the taking OF the brst ballot.
The prrliminaIics having been gone through
with the Clerk OF the Senate proceeded in
the "sing song" manner into wulch per-
sen occupying this position invariably falls
TO call the roll, with no surprises until the
last name was reached aud Mr.. President"
was called. Calling Seuator Price 10 the
chair President Carr took the door. and In n
firm. steady voice said that in explaining his
vote he desired to say that be thought the
tine had arrived when United states sena-
too should be elected. He wanted 10 say
to the joint Assembly tia, hereafter hrs vote
would be cast TO that end. He recalled the
troubles Of two years ago IN eiectng sens-
tor, and the calling Of an extra session. He
said be considered 1t the duty OF the Leris.
lature to avert This by electing a senator
during this session. TO that end he said he
would cast his vote FOR Nathan Goh. \ buzz
Of conversation ran over the hail for se-
c0nd, checked a. every one eigery watched
for further developments. The Clerk OF The
Senate proceeded to a call OF the roll OF the
House. When the name Of Mr.. Dorr vas
called by the Clerk every ear was strained:
but when his vote was cast for W. 7.
Ice II was known that the deadlock
was not broken unless something ex-
iraordinsy happened. When Delegate
Harris name was reached be simply
east his vote for JOhn L. Benua. thereby
showing that all Oi the Union Labor vote
was rot lost to the Democracy. The roll
proceeded, the Democrats voting Tor Keuna
and the Republicans for God, until the name
OF Delegate Kirk was called. when he too cast
mis- vote for Nathan Gon. The roll proceed
ed. The Democrats voting for kenna and the
Republicans for Con. rwO ballots were
tsEeD. the results being siike, Dorr voting
each time for Ice. The whole number OF
votes east was So, Of which GoG received Il;
Kenua, ~, aud lee, /. Kirk will staud

by politicians OF both parties, but Csrr's post
ton Is not so we'll understood. u will
be observed In voting for Coli he did
not pledge himself 10 continue so to vote
hereafter. II he is sincere IN wishing to at
tain an election his duty is apparent. as bis
vote for Keuna will elect tha, gentleman.
u Is the belief among both Republicans and
Democrats that that !. precisely his nten-
ton. some Of the most slnguine kenna al J..
