The Accuracy and Delicacy OF His JudG'
ment-Why He Was an Orator.
IfarQus dc ChambrRn IN Scrtbilq's 4agasiRe,
ANY one hearing him express his
ideas, or think aloud, either upon one
OF the great topics which absorbed him,
or on an incidental question, was not
long in finding out the marvellous rec
titude OF his mind nor tho accuracy OF
his judgment,
have heard him give his opinion on
statesmen, argue political problems, al.
ways with astounding precision and
business, Ihave heard him speak OF q
woman who was considered beautiful,
discuss the particular character OF her
appearance, distinguish what was
praiseworthy from what was open to
criticisnl-all that with the sagacity Of
an artist. Lately two letters, in which
no speaks OF Shakespeare, aud in par.
ticuIar Of Macbeth" have been pub.
lished; his judgment eyinces that sort
Of delicaCy and soundness OF taste
that would honor great literary critic.
He had formed himself by the difficult
and powerful process OF lonely medita'
ton. During his rough and humble
life he had had constantly with him
two books which the Western settler
always keeps on ono OF the shelves Of
his hut-the Bible and Shakespeare.
From the Bible he had absorbed that
religious color in which he was pleased
to clothe his thoughts; with Shakes
peare he had learned to reflect on man
and passions. In certain respects one
can question whether that sort OF in
tellectual culture be not more pene.
trating than any other, and ii it be not
more particularly suited in the develop.
ment OF a gifted mind to preserve its
native originality.
These reflections may serve to explain
Mr.. Lincoln'a talent as an orator. His
incisiye speech found Its way to the
worry depths OF tho soul; his short and
clear sentences would captivate the
audiences on which they fell. TO him
was given 10 see nearly all his definitions
pass into daily provorb. 1t is he who,
better than any one, stamped the char
acter Of the war in these well known
words, spoken some years before it
broke out: "a house divided against
itself cannot stand; this government
cannot continue to exist half free and
half slave"

Tho U.s. and Abuse of whlaltoy.

This subject could be dwelt upon to q
considerable length, and yet much
would remain untold, but all agree that
the use, the proper use OF pure rye

ans prescribe rye whiskey, and Justly
claim that Klein's Silver Ago and Du'

THE QUESTION OF CLOTURE.
A Significant Resolution Introduced by
Senator Blackburn.
Probability That Senator Hills Rule,
At Length Adopted.

The STILL small voice Of cloture was heard
In the Senate this morning. 1t came in the
form Of resolution introduced by Senator
Blackburn. chairman Of the committee on
rules. as follows:
Resolved that the committee on rules be
instructed to inquire and report to the Sem
ate what revision of or amendments to the
rules If any. should be adopted to secure
a more efficient and satisfactory disposition
of the business of the Senate"
This resolution was adopted without re-
vision. 1t will be remembered that Senator
Blackburn was quoted as saying when Sem
ator Platt first introduced his resolution
providing for a cloture rule In the midst Of
the silver fight that such a rule could never
be reported from his committee while the
fight was in progress.
He took determined stand against any
revision of the rules pending the settlement
of the silver question, but on two or three
occasions voted to compel member Sem
atOr to vote who had sat silent during a
roll CALL 1t now appears as though 1t has
been determined by the managers on the
democratic side to let the committee on
rules take all the propositions that had been
submitted looking to cloture, which now
aggregate upward of a dozen, and from
them formulate the best rule that can be
desired to put an end to unlimited debate.
1t is generally thought that the rule intro
duced by Senator Hill and afterward re-
introduced by Senator Voorhees, with
a slight amendment will be reported. This
rule provides that after thirty days debate
on any proposition, bill or resolution 1t shall
be in order for any Senator to move to fix
a day on which vote shall be taken. and
such a motion shall not be debatable or
amendable.

PENSION OFFICE REDUCTIONS.
The List Will Not BE Given Out b,
the Authorities.

The list Of reduction which took place
yesterday in the pension Office is still in
hiding The officials will throw no light on
the matter. They maintain that as a reduc-
tion in rank Is a reflection upon the eff
cheney Of those reduced the suppression of
this news is only me-ciful to the victims.
Others interested in the matter declare that
this reason for suppression is a sham.
They say that 1t is merely to cover up
partisan methods. Personal preferences
may also be pande-ed to under this system
of secret promotion; personal spleen may be
vented on unfortunate clerks by secret re-
duction or dismissal. They think that the
ployes.
Some of the Victims.
One Of those injured in yesterdays cy-
attache Of the government. He was ap-
pointed from New York on June 8, 1863, and
to the position he held on July IA, 1884.
He was reduced from 81, 800 to $l6OO. He is
a republican.
Wilson y. Paxton, so a Star reporter was
Informed on what he considers reliable
authority. was also reduced from 81 500 to
1850. He was appointed from the twenty
third congressional district of PENNSYLVANIA
on April T. 1881. and to his present position
on August IL. 1882 His politics could not be
learned, but The Star man was told that he
was republican.
Acting Commissioner Dominick /. Murphy
stated to reporter for The Star this after
noon that he could see no good reason WHY
list or those who had been promoted
might not be given to the public. But q con-
trary rule of the department stood in the
way.

TIE LIE G r A MS POUR IN
Congratulating the President on the Silver
Victory.
How the News Was Received Mt the
White HOuse-The Cabinet
Meeting Today.

The President and his cabinet are ex-
tremely gratified at their silver victory in
Congress and make no effort to conceal
their joyful feeling, in perfectly dignified
way, of course. They refuse, however, to
say anything on the subject for publication.
Private Secretary Thurber said this morn
ing that the President is very much pleased
Of course at the result. but that he has no
statement to make in regard to it.
When the vote was taken in the Senate
last night the result was Immediately tel
egraphed to the White House, where Mr.
Thurber was in waiting for it,
1t was SO agreeable to him that he could
not wait for details and jumping into a
him to "Woodley" as fast as possible.
There he found the President awaiting him
and there was general felicitation in the
household over the glad tidings."
1t was expected that some of the senator
ial leaders in the repeal movement would
call at the White House this morning to
congratulate the President, but for some
unexplained reason none of them put I'm an
appearance 1t was probably owing to the
fact that this is cabinet day and that as
the President does not usually reach the
White House until 10 o'clock. he would have
no time to spare for visitors.
The cabinet met promptly at IL o'clock.
full attendance of members, for the first
time in several weeks. 1t is assumed that
although the financial situation engrossed
the principal share of attention, other ma {
tiers of importance were also considered. in
cluding the policy Of the government in
the Brazilian affair.
A flood of kilograms streamed into the
White House during the day, congratulate
ing the President on the success of his
efforts to restore the public confidence by
the suspension of silver purchases.
They began ticking into the telegraph
office Of the White House as soon the
Office was opened in the morning and con-
tinued their merry music all day. They
were mostly from individuals. Mr.. Thurber
would not make any of them public. He
said that they came from all parts of the
country, from Maine to Texas and from
New York to California. In response to a
direct question he admitted that so far no
congratulations had been received from
Colorado or Nevada

Executive Clemency

The President has granted a pardon in
the case OF Franklin w. Hull of Pennsyl-
vania, convicted Of aiding and abetting the
Misrepresentation of the funds of a national
bank, and sentenced November %, 1890. 20
five years Imprisonment in the eastern
state penitentiary at PHILADELPHIA The
President indorsed the application for par
don as follows:
Granted Eminent surgeons certify that
an operation is necessary to save the re-
naming sight of this convict one of his
eyes being already blind and the other
seriously affected and growing worse They
also nave convinced me that if such an
operation Is to be successful in its results
the patient must have more favorable sur-
roundings than a prison affords These are
the reasons upon which my action in this
case is based"
