"'S FartinE Words to the Diss0lviny
Fity-firat Congress.
WAsHiNGroN, March 5.-Just prior to
final adjournment of the Fifty first con.
gfesS Spea ker Reed took occasion to saw:
After two long stormy sessions, in some
respects unparalleled In u hundred years,
the house of representatives OF tae Fifty
nrst congress- will soon pass with COM
pleted record into the history OF the country
and its work Will follow it. What we have
done Is in large measure political. What
ever rs polltical rouses the sternest. most
turbusent, most unfjrgiying passions OF the
human race. Political action can never he
justly viewed from near standpoint. Time
anu distance are needed for ripe judgments
anu the verdict of history Is the only verdict
worth recording. To state in language
which would seem to me to be adequate for
the achievements OF the house would not be
sultaDle 10 this time or this place, nor Is 1t
In the least needful that should here and
now rekindle the old disputes or fan the
dying 3nbeHs. The struggles OF the past
are gone. Whether we have disposed of the
questions OF finance with wisdom and broad
craftsmanship time will surely show.
whether In the things we have done and
the thlhgs VIC have attempted for the fur
ther2nce OF human liberty we were actuated
" high and honorable motives wi be WIS.,
'oie TO all the world at no distant day. Our
actions are catalogued, and an expires sion
OF praise by ourselves would be all in vain.
if our deeds do not praise us our words can
not,
Confident rs l am OF the verdict OF time
On what We have done. / am still more con-
bdent that the highest commendation will
be given us In the future, not for what
measures we have passed. as valuable AS
they are, but because we have taken such
long strides in the direction OF re-
sponsible government; having demon
s'nted to tho people that those
who have been elected to do their will. can
do 1t. Hepceforth excuses will not be taken
for failure OF performance and government
by the people will be strong in the land.
Toward those who have opposed what a
majority of the house have desired we can
have no unkind or personal feeling. Who
ever offers to battle the old convictions and
faiths must expect that the battle and vigor
OF resistance must always bear some pro-
portion to the vigor OF the onset.
To the members on my left, with whom I
am politically associated. beg to tender
my most sincere and heartfelt cknow ledge
ments. No man ever received Il more an
grudging and unfinchng support OF from
u band more patriotic. am proud to ac-
knowledge in all that has been done / have
been but one in multitude aud that tho
honors OF the Fifty-frst congress belong to
you alone. l now declare this house ad
jonIned without day.

en- route to st. Petersburg. With the
approval OF the Gear he came to this

purpose OF studying the theory and
practice Of cotton raising. He believes
that Central Asia offers great
possibilities for tho raising OF
the cotton plant, and he is now on Ills

put his knowledge into practice. He and
Prince Dolgorouky already own large
plantations In the Asian cotton belt
which they will Ut once plant into cot
ton, assisted By some Louisiana cotton
planters as 0versecrs, snd with some
negroes who will be taken there to teach
the natives. Possessed OF the Imperial
favor and confidence, they have the
promise that the tariff on American and
Indian cotton will be made prOhibitOry,
and that transportation facilities be-
tween their plantations and the markets
not only OF Russia, but also those OF
other European countries. The price Of
