INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT THE
ROMAN SENATE.

From the Speech of Senator Turpie)
Some Of the rules of the Roman Senate
assembled our own. No business could
no transacted without the presence of a
quorum. The question of Il quorum, rs
| familiar in that assembly as in this
MIGHT be raised at any time, by any mem
hor in two words addressed to the pre-
! siding oficer--numera senatum-count
tho Senate. \ Senator desiring to speak
sometimes addressed the chair, but in
ovarv case his fellow-members collective
| 1v nc natres COnscripti. The speeches
| Of tho Senators might be and often were
road from manuscript, a practice which
has lasted even until this day. There
uos no nrpyious question or cloturc. De
hate was held without limit as TO time.
Those who grossly abused this right of
sneokinc without interruption were some
times forced to quit by the noise and clam
ar made hv their fellowmembers. Oc-
on sionallv the whole Senate joined in
these demonstrations. The presiding of
ficer attempted to interrupt, more than
once. an obnoxious speaker, but this was
not tolerated by the Senate.
When a certain Senator one day. in
order to prevent a decree from being
passed. tried to waste time in speaking,
Caesar. who was then Consul, and by
virtue of his office the presiding Of
ficer of the Senate, ordered him to he
arrested and taken to prison; but the
whole house rose to their feet to follow
him. which caused Caesar to rescind his
order, and the Senator held the floor
The debates were sometimes. though
lamps were ordered and lighted: but
night sessions of the Senate were espc-
cially discouraged by two of its rules.
No new reference could be made or cues
ton raised after the tenth hour. or 4
o'clock in the afternoon: no decree could
be passed after sunset-rules the reason
ablness of which might well be. in our
own day, worthy of consideration.
The Senate held executive or secret ses-
sions, when every one except members was
excluded from the building. and a COM
mfttee of Senators was appointed in such
cases to make and keep journal of the
proceedings of the session. One of the
Consuls for the year usually presided
in the Senate In his absence some other
of the high officers of the Government
duty, but the Roman Senate does not APP
pear to have ever had the power to APP
point its own President. The vote of the
Senate was taken by division A major
ity vote decided all questions.
There are two very old DEGREES of the
Roman Senate yet in force and universal
ly obeyed. They do not relate to general
policy or Jurisprudence. They are in the
strictest sense of the term special legis-
lation. These DEGREES were passed after
the death of the first two EmperOrs, and
enacted that the fifth and sixth months
of the calender as then in use should
thereafter be named and called in mem
DRY and in honor Of Julius and Augustus
so that the whole world, in speaking of
July and August. continues yet to pay
a certain verbal tribute to the Caesars.
No other earthly rulers have had monu-
ments SO well known or so enduring.

Among a multitude of those methods

which have succeeded best in recent
years, none has been more adroitly work
cd than the Exposition" 1t was inau-
gurated at Philadelphia to celebrate the
Centennial Anniversary of this Repub-
lie. in 1876. This first exposition appro-
prlated for from the public Treasury
was the beginning Of series of shows to
be viewed and enjoyed by few tax
payers at the expense of all the tax-pay-
ers of the United States. The annexed
tabulated statement tells how much sue
cess IN financial way the 'show bust
ness as function of Government has
achieved. In the beginning of its career
even the Philadelphians and other per-
sonally interested patriots dared to pro-
pose only loan from the general Gov

SuCCESS OF WOMAN'S ENFRAN-

1t IS now four years since the elector-

,"enty-one years Of age by act or the
local parliament: and, as the parllaments
an New'Zealand last for three years, there
nave been two general elections III which
the Women's vote has been a most impor-

lnefe are no symptoms OF pubic regret

lar any indications of the change nav

the persons who have put themselves
forward in positions Of prominence in the
Women's Rights" movements in Am

the women Of New Zealand would I'M
doubleday have seemed slow and supne
to an extraordinary degree. They held
no meetings; they sent no petitions; they
published no Letters or pamphlets--either
to denounce men or to praise women.
