RepeaI a Civil war Bill.

Senator Pettus, who holds the age rec
ord among bis associates, made quaint
speech in the Senate Saturday afternoon
10 favor OF the bill repeating law pass
ed Immediately after the civil war pTovid-
ing that no claim held by any southern
citizens against the federal government
prior to April 10, 1861, should be paid
to any person who bad been guilty Of
treason. Senator Pettus argued that this
statute was sbrogsted and replaced by
the Presidents amnesty proclamation Of
December %, 1868, and said this opinion
is now entertained by all lawyers.
He began by thanking the Senate for
its uniform kindness and courtesy to
ward him. "The kindness Of the Sem
ate" he ssid, "has not been surpassed
by that OF my own people at home and
the Lord knows that has been abundant. 1"
BE apologetically observed that the Sem
ate may be sliiicted with him for eight
years or more aud hence he did not de-
sire to trespsss too much on It's coed
nature. The bill was passed without
further discussion.

The ThaW Trial,

New York, March, 4..-There was the
same esger, interested crowd OF specta-
tors in the court room when the trial
was resumed as a result of the prospect
that Mrs. William Thaw was to go on
the stand
Dr. Evans was the first witness called.
Jerome showed that he was not
through with the insanity expert, when
his corps of assistants came trooping in
carrying the same heavy volumes OF
authorities of insanity which have been
carried in daily since DR.. Eyans's cross
examination began.
The examination WAS on liues pre-
viOusiy pursued by Jerome. Dr.. Evans
at different times avoided direct answers
and the examination proved tedious.
The doctors testimony can be sum-
married as follows: "At the time Thaw
shot Stanford White the former wSs
suifersng from one of the iDsanites OF
adolescence, and it is thought he had an
insane knowledge OF his action"

LONDON on Saturday voted munich
pal ownership failure, the retOrmers
obtaining majority in the election OF
the county council. For several years
the socialists had control Of the county
council and we're running wild with the
expenses of the city, . very SINAI! part
of which they paid themselves. The
taxpayers, after bearing their burden
with forbearance, il not with Christian
fortitude, finally took matters in their
own hands and wiped the socialists, With
their municipal ownership humbug, off
the face of the earth. What was said
TO be one Of the greatest ratepaYers'
demonstrations in London in many years
occurred q few days before the election.
when several thousands marched through
the streets to Trafalgar square, where a
mass meeting was held to protest against
further municipal ownership expert
ments on the part of the London county
council. The procession, Which was
more than 3 mile in length, included
many unique features intended to cast
discredit upon the municipal industries.
The meeting adopted q resolution stat
inH that "this mass meeting of London
ratepsyers indignantly protests against
the increasing burden of rates, caused
by the progressive socialist party, and
pledges itself to exert every effort to
turn the wsstrels out on March 2 and
place in power the party Of municipal
reform" This was accomplished most
efectually and London's example should
be followed in every other city in the
world where socislists and the municipal
ownership craze have secured a foot
hold.

luton expressing the dOnma's loyalty to

The.Currency Bill,

Representative Carter Glass, of Vir-
GINA, has prepared and submitted to
the House the report of the minority
members of the committee on banking
and currency in opposition to the Fowl
er asset currency bill, upon which q
favorable report has been made. The
minority report points out that there is
no urgent need for the proposed legis-
lation on account Of there being no gen.
eral business demand for it. 1t also de-
clares that the effect of the proposed
measure is to swell the already ample
profits of the national banks, while 1t
will fail to provide the desired elastic
currency The banks nov refuse to
issue the circulation they are permitted
This report has to do with a bill that
will not be voted upon by this Congress.

MONDAY EVENING. MAR. 4, 1867.

THE STRENUOUS and shady methods
nv which the House leaders jammed the
ship subsidy bill through that body Fri
day was Of no avail, for the Senale dem
ocrats we're prepared at once io ak the
measure to death even if they had to
maintain a continuous flow Of speeches
from the hour the Senate met Yesterday
until the final fall Of the gayel at noon
today. They made the republican
leaders aware Of their determination Sat
urday afternoon, and the latter knew
there WAS no hope for the bill, but they
made a show of trying to force vote on
on Il for effect. Some of the democratic
Senators who do not believe 10 flibus-
tering "a general rule OF par
IiAmentsry conduct, felt they we're
justified in resorting to a filibuster IN
this instance because OF the means
by which the bill Was put through
the House. They cav the House leaders
broke pairs, took advantage OF. the abb
sence of democratic members and other
wise resorted to discreditable practices
In order to turn their first defeat into a
victory. Moreover, Senate democrats
regarded the proposed Legislation as Of
such vicious tendency that they felt 1t
their duty to the country TO adopt any
legitimate means Of defeating it. The
bin as II stood did not amount to much,
bat they knew the republicans were
anxious to secure its passage at this time
- an entering wedge for measure OF
Il wider scope liz the future. Senator
Csrmack led the ilibusters, being ably
abetted by Senators Dubois, Newlands,
Overman and others, all frankly con-
Tossing their intention to hold up the
bill and all talking on subjects that bad
nothing to do with it. This morning
the republicans admitted defeat and
withdrew the bill. No better work was
done by the democratic Senators during
the session than the defeat of the chip
subsidy bill.

Senator Spooner Resigns.

Senator Spooner startled some of his
colleagues about noon yesterday by quiet
~ informing them that he had rendered
to Gov J. O. Davidson, of Wisconsin,
his resignation as senator from that
State, effective May /. Later, his letter
TO the governor was given to the press,
and the news became at once the princi
pal topic of conversation at the Capitol,
where both houses were in session, and
in Official circles generally. Senator
Spooner. on retiring from public life,
will devote himself to the practice Of his
profession
He denied that he was ~ go on the
United States Supreme Court bench, and
stated that the report that he would be
retained by the Hill and Hartman in
terests YVES without foundation. He ex
poets to practice 10 some extent in New
YORK, but will retain his home in Wis

Senator Spooner has served sixteen
years and is one of the ablest constitG-
tional lawyers in the State. He declares
that he must now devote himself to pri-
vste practice, and his determination to

Socialism suffered a decisive and over
whelming defeat Saturday at the hands
of the London electors. The result OF
the county council election is the choice
of 70 refoi ners, Sc progressiyes (progres-
sive socialists), and 3 labOriies. the

munity has there beer such an ex-
IRENE reversal of the popular will with
regard 10 a party or policy. The progress
sives have cOntrolledLondor for eighteen
years, since the creation of the county
council. From the outset they have en-.
gagged in a constantly broadening policy
Of municipal ownership, and it was this
policy that formed the sole issue of the
present campaign. London has now
condemned and repudisted it in decis
ion so emphatic that its revival is in
possible The old councils record OF
extravaganza, waste, Encouragement,
deception by false accounts and general
incompetence was perhaps the worst ever
made by public body, whose members
we're not accused of personal dishonesty

AFTER long and useful career as
Judge of this judicial circuit, Judge
Charles f. Nicol today sent his resigns-
ton to Governor Swanson. He will re
tire from the bench to begin an active
canvas for the seat in Congress made
vscant by the recent death of Hon. j..
+. Rixey. Friends Of Judge NicOl all
over the district urged him to remain on
the bench, or, st least, not to resign I'M
ill after the nomination OF Congress
iousl candidate had been made, bu., as
before stated in the Gazette, he thinks it
beat to resign by reason Of his couyic-
ton that the judiciary should be kept
apart from politics. Judge Nicol succeed
ed Judge James Keith IS circuit Judge
years ago when the latter becamea mem
her of the Court of Appeals, aud while
q number of popular, esteemed and able
jurists have filled the position, none has
been more acceptable to people Of all
classes throughout the district than has
Judge Nicol. Possessing the natural
ability for such post, he has given it
his undivided attention, aud his rulings
have always been on the lines Of wisdom
ssd equity. Carefully studiDg each case
in all its details, his decisions have gen
orally been such SIS to appeal to all fair
minded people. His retirement will,
therefore, be regretted throughout the
circuit by all who have had business
with the court over which he has pre-
aided.
