Others to make thorough re-cxami-
nation Of the question and has
brought the republicans sQunrely to
the position that the old rule for
ascertalning the presence Of a quo
rum was erroneous In principle and
unsafe. The trainers Of the constItu.
tl0n seem never once to have con-
templated the possibility that
members Of Congress would refuse to
do their duty and sit mute when
their names was called. The moderp
tactics OF flibustcring by mlnorlty y
had not then been developed, They
did not anticipate the possibility
that members Of Congress might re-
fuse to do their duty and sit mute
when their names were called. The
modern tactics Of filibustering by n
minority had not then been dc, e'opetl.
They did anticipate the possibility
that members might embarras the
business Of the House by absentlng
themselves, and they provided an
effective remedy for this by authorls-
ing the arrest and forclble return to
the House Of all absentees, thus pre-
venting, as they supposed, the possi-
bility Of u factious minority defeating
necessary legislation. 1t Is now
seen that the precaution Is rendered
nugatory II the obstructing minority
when brought into the Chamber may
continue to obstruct.by simple device
of refusing to answer to their names.
The republicans abandon the theory
that silence implies absence because
the recent course Of the democrats
shows that II means the tyranlcal
rule Of an irresponsible minority.
In this they are supported by excel.
lent democratic authority, and what
is infinitely more to the purpose, by
both the language and the spirit Of
the Constitution OF the United
States. That they did not always
like this view, only shows that they
are willing to profit by the lessons Of
experience, and abandon rule once
cherished but which is found by
them to be pernicious in practice and
subvcrsive OF good government.

A little while ago stood by the
grave Of the old NapOleon-a magnifl-
cient tomb Of gilt aud gold, fit almost
for deity dead-and gazed upon the
sarcophagus Of rare and nameless
marble, where rests ut last the ashes
of that restless man. 1 leaned over
the balustrade and thought about the
career Of the greatest soldier of the
modern world. saw him walking on
the banks of the Seine contemplating
suicide. i saw him at ToulOn. l saw
him putting down the mob In the
streets Of Paris. I saw him at the
head of the army in Italy. saw him
crossing the bridge at Lodi with the
tri-color in his hand. I saw him in
Egypt in the shadows Of the pyramids.
| saw him conquer the Alps and min.
gle the eagles Of France with the
eagles Of the crags. saw him at Ma.
rengo, at Ulm and at Austerlitz. l
saw lin in Russia when the infantry
of the snow and the cavalry Of the
wild blast scattered his legions like
winters witllered leaves. l saw him
at Leipsic In defeat and disaster
driven BY million bayonets back
upon Paris-clutched like u wild beast
