THE FIFTIETH CONGRESS.

Now that the 'Fiftieth Congress
has passed into history, one may be-
gin to estimate. its Importance to
the country. The first thing that
strikes one, is that all the issues that
divided the two great parties, and
which We're passed upon IN the re-
cent Presidential election by the
people, are left still unsettled.
On the great question of tax re-
duction there had been developed
conflicting views between the Pie
sident and the Democratic House.
that never could be heartily recon-
ciled. While upon the quest on o.
the details of adjusting the tariff
there was founded so widea diver.
gence of views between the two
great parties, that there was no con
citation or compromise possible.
So the great and distracting qustioas
Of tariff, internal revenue and sur
plus are all left just where they We t
when the Fiftieth Congress first
met.
In point of general Legislation
where there was no divergence Of
opinions between the two great
political parties, there was smaller
amount of legislation than usual.
This was occasioned by so much
time being consumed by the dis
cussion of tariff and tax matters.
What was done was on matters Of
no great interest to the people, and
1t is too soon to pass Judgment on
it now.
Ii is noticeable that the Monroe
Doctrine was reasserted by almost
an unanimous vote with reference
TO the Panama canal directly and
Samoa indirectly.
Four new States were at last ad.
mitted, which had long been knock
ing at the door of the Union, namely
North Dakota. South Dakota
Washington and Montana. This
gives the Republicans eight addi-
tional majority in the Senate, and
adds FIVE Republican majority tothe
House. 1t is probable also that it
will add is electoral votes in the
next electoral college. This seakens
the influence Of New York in Pre-
sidential elections. As things stand
now, the Republicans can electe
President without New York.

PARNELL AND PIGOTT.

Seldom ,loes it happen that we'll
laid strategem, aided by perjury and
forgery, comes to such sudden and
overwhelming defeat as In the ease
Of Mr.. ParnelI, the great Irish lead
er and the London Times"
Stealthily Pigott got possession OF
several packages of Mr.. Parnell's
letters that were genuine; though OF
no moment it served Rigott's pur
pose to gain the confidence of the
the London Times" From that
time forward. all the Parnell letters
IN the Times" were fOrgeries of
Pigott alias Ponsonby.
When the final crash came, and
the forgeries and periuries of Pigott,
could no longer avail. the Times
case against Parnell went under,
and Mr.. Shannon, the Times u"
attorney abandoned the case and
went back to ireland.
Pigott fled to Madrid. the capital
of Spain, and stopped at the Hotel
des Ambassadors: failing to get a
check cashed, he telegraphed to Mr..
Soames' Office in London for money.
signing the name Roland Ponsonby.
This led to his discovery and arrest,
whereupon he committed suicide by
shooting through his head with a
pistol. His remains were placed in
public morgue or dead house, and
among the papers on his person. was
a confession Of his crimes. In it
he says, | am deeply sorry for all
those | have injured, and am ready
to place at their disposal all means
in my power to remedy all that |
have said that was false"
Messrs. Parnell. H,KelIy, Davitt,
aud the other Irish leaders stand
triumphantIy acquitted. But look
at the contrast between Parnell and
Pigott. Mr.. Parnell strides into the
House Of Commons with more pow
er than ever. A grand dinner is
rendered TO him at which over two
thousand distinguished men attend,
and over which Earl Spencer pre-
sides.
II is time for England to harken
to the voice Of Gladstone. and justice

the OIL Market.
At the opening yesterday the oil market re-
aected the prevailing apathy in speculative
trading. About / o'clock there was little
burst of excitement caused by New York turn
ing bear and trying to smash things, but Pitts
burg, Oil City and Bradford discovered the
maneuver and turned buyers, thus frustrating
the scheme. The trading was entirely pro-
fessional and of small proportions. Very little
cash oil was handled. 1t brought about u cent
less than September. The market closed
strong on a rally of cent from the lowest
point of the day. The fluctuations were:
