NATION’SJAPITAL Senator litchell Vints Senators Elected bj Popular Yote. Tli Ugisktiie Ippftpriiiiu BUI Stirs Up th lout. Awards lor Can a log tha United States Mall In Maloa. WiiHi.ioToR, April H—Plumb's resolu t on Tor an increase of purchase and coin age of silver was presented and Eastis moved, asac i idition to it. a further re«o 1 art on that tbe free coinage of silver is essential to sound financial policy, and that all laws limiting the roiaage of silver onght to be repealed. Tbe resolution wae laid over for the pree ent so as to give Mitchell an opportunity to address the .Senate. Mitchell addressed the Senate in favor of the constitutional amendment proposed by him for tbe election of Senators by a popu lar vote. He declared the present system of electing Senators, un republican not democratic, and vicious in all respects, in effect of declaration it was unsafe to com mit the election of Senators to a vote of the people, and it waa to be a reflection of honesty or capacity or both) of the voting body. Public criticism on the Senate was to effect it an aristocratic body, too far re moved from the people, and was in fact an American House of Lords. Although it should be, and was, the most dignified, J most important legislative body in the world. the tendency of public journalism and T public mind is to belittle us importance, to minimise its dignity, and power, aud cast obloquy on its members. Any move ment that would give to the people the right to elect Senators directly could hot result beneficially to all concerned. 1 At the conclusion of Mitchell's speech the concurrent resolution was referred to the committee on privileges and elections. A bill making appropriations for the an- r nual expenses of the government of the n District ur Columbia was takt n up. During c consideration of the bill, Morrill, from the conference committee on the bill for the e organization, improvement and mainten- a ante of a national zoological park, moved that the Senate recede from its position c and agree to tbe House amendment which tj requires that half of the expense be paid t| by the district government. After some j, discussion the motion was agreed to and t| the bill goes to the President for his signa- tnre. Consideration of the District of Columbia appropriation bill was resumed t| and continued to the close, when the bill j, was passed. After a brief executive ses- f sion the Senate at 5.55 adjourned. h Bualoesa la tbo House. a Mr. Dingley of Maine, from the com- ti mitte on way and means, reported a bill providing for the classification of worsted j cloths as woolens. The secretary of the treasury is authorized and directed to class ify as woolen cloths, all imports of worsted cloth, whether known under the name of s worsted cloth, or under the names of e worsted or diagonals or otherwise. lie- n ferred to the committee of whole. 8 Mr. Chandler of Massachustt's moved r the House corcur in the Senate amend e mentn to the World's Fair bill. This being agreed to, the bill is Anally passed, and will c be sent to the Senate for Us action Tbs House Labors Over tbe Legisla tive Appropriation Bill. E The House went into committee of the a whole on the legislative appropriation bill, j Allen of Mississippi failed to find any g reduction in this bill. He quoted from the a civil service plsnk of the republican party and from Preside it Harrison's letter of ac ceptance. The republican party has gone back on its promises. He wanted to call the at option of the country to the civil ser- vice pretension of the administration. He had some respect for a man who ac- j knowledged himself a spoilsman, hut a r man who ohtained office under hypocritical t guise would never get the respect of peo- pie. Bland of Missouri discussed the monetary question. He bad never regarded this as a party question, hut from the fact that the republicans holding caucus after caucus it V would seem they were going to make it ti one. Let the hill be brought in as any other business hill would be, not under the gag law of caucus. He proceeded to speak in favor of unlimited coinage of silver and characterized the Windom bill as a demon etizing measure He wanted to raise thi* question from the degradation of parti' can- I1 cus and bring it before the House. If it is s not brought before the House let the n responsibility rest where it belongs, on the a Secretary of the Treasury. c Kerr of Iowa suggested that when the n democrats hail controlled the House in the I Fiftieth Congress they had not passed an f unlimited coinage hill. The seal of the gentleman from Missouri (Bland) would I be better had it been shown when he had some influence in the administration. Cannon of Illinois reviewed in detail the increases in offices and salaries and justi- 1 fled the committee on appropriations in having reported them bore. In the Fiftieth Congress w?re created 986 offices with an ■ggrvgate expenditure ot $1,164,000. The f increase in salaries made by the pending 1 bill was only $6.ofl0 while the iacrease in I salaries made by the Fiftieth C »ngre«§ was c $1,200,000 He denied the chirge made by Allen to the effect that many of the Federal appointees in Mississippi were men of had character. When the gentleman was making that charge, be (Cannon) could not help thinking that while there I were thousands of postmasters to be ap- pointed in each State, there was hut one State treasurer to be elected (Laughter) 1 He proceeded to read amid laughter a list c of the defaulting State treasurers of south- ern States. Spinola of New York, said the civil ser vice law, was un-Jeffersonian, undemo cratic, and an American; and there were not five men on the other side who honestly believed in it. It bad been operated as a j fraud, the present administration had not paid the least respect to it whatever. Grosvenor of Ohio, said he did not be 1 lieve in civil service law and its adminis tration was not approved by ooe-flfth of the members of either House of Congress. He believed that if each member of the House would vote a deliberate opiiion. they would declare the whole system founded on a mistake and its administra- f tim on a false principle. It was detrimen- trsl to tbe very purpose it aimed to sc com- 1 plish. (Applause.) Clements—W bat civil service reform t was endorsed by tbe Chicago convention? Grosveuor—To turn democrats oat, an-* pu'republicans in. (Laughter) Grosvenot I said he would vote against increasing the force of the commission, but would vote to repeal the whole law. (Applause.) Lodge of Massachusetts defended the 1 civil service law and resented its being I characterized as a humbug and frsud. It t was not un-American, or unrepuhlican To him things un-American and unrepubli can were favoritism, nepotism and personal interest by which a spoils or patronage sys tem must be always operated. It was un American to see representatives of the peo ple hanging about ante chambers of gov ornmcct offices. It was neither respectful, decent, nor manly to have officers of the government giving hour after hour of their time listening to personal and political ap peals. The system of spoils is not Amen Subsequently, in debate. Lodge read j from the New York Evening Poet a list of occupation* of the member* of Tammany i executive committee. Spinola read from the same paper an ar tide reflecting upon the character of Sena j tor Quay. He wai called to order by Grosvenor. The chairman ruled the point well taken. Darling* on of Pennsylvania aaid that the •ta ement that Senator Quay waa a defaulter whoa he was State Treasurer, as false in every particular. He was one of Treasurer Quay’s bondsmen, and knew what he was miking about In extolling Tammany Hall, Spinola said it had stood for liberty for a hundred yean. I Allen of Michigan—“How many of Its l members lost their own T* q Laughter r j 8ptaola—Then may have been a few. Washington of Taonaa— criticised tha administration of Um civil service lav. de claring that the lav had been joggled vith Keer said that President Harrison's ad ministration vas standing fairly up to tlu civil service lav. Donnell of Minnesota moved to striki on: ’be appropriation of $31,780 for clerki for Senators. Pending the vote the committee rote, and the House at 5.10 adjourned.

Boynton s work is a quite masterly survey of the magnificent events crowded within the years given on hia title page, and is the work of a ripe scholar and deep thinker who is at familiar with the events of history and their causes and results as school boys are with the plainest rules of arithmetic and who in his first book takes a commanding position as an interpreter of history. The mauuscript of the second volume is already complet ed and will soon tie placed in the pub lisher'* hands. It will make a volume much larger than the present oue, and may he expected early another spring, lien Henry Boynton was born in Monmouth and received his education in I the common schools and at Newport and Hast C orinth academies. When hut a boy he went to alifornia where lie spent two years, and returned to Kansas where he studied law and was admitted to the Bar of the L S District Court at Lawrence in 18CJ0. In 1856 he raised a company of sixty five men to aid in protecting Kansas from the attacks of the “Border Ruffians/ In the battle of Big Springs, during tl»€ I Kansas War, Clen. Boynton received a i -abr* wound in the forehead, the scat of which he now carries He remained in Kansas in the law ami real estate busi ness till 1861, when became East. Five days after the firing upon Fort Sumpter he raised a company of men to march to the defense of the Nation. A second company was also raised by Gen. Boyn i ton. both comprising a total of 250 men, raised and put into the service at his i own expense. He went to the front as I captain of Co. D 8th Maine, partici pated at the battles of Fort Harrison, Chapin's Farm, Fort Gilman, Laurel i Hill, Fair Oakes, Spring Hill and Dewry’s Bluff’, at the latter of which he was wounded, a ball passing nearly through his body This ball wascarried f«»r seven years and was then extracted. At the close of the war he returned as Colonel of the 7th Regiment and was mustered out in March 1805, previsus to whL'h he had been commissioned as Brevet Brigadier General for personal bravery at the battle of Dewry's Bluff, having been specially commended for galantry by Geo. Weit/eland Smith, i in person. Gen Boynton was ametnbei of the State Senate in 1800-07, and wa* I C.

In 1881 and again in 1880 Gen j Boynton went abroad for the sole pur pose of historical study aud research upon subject* embraced in the work he j has now in hand. It is the ripe fruitage j of years of study and thought, and as such is sure to coinmaud candid atten tlou from geueral readers and the most competent critic*. j “It is a rare gift," remarks the Even Ing Transcript, “to speak the apposite j word at the exact time, when everything seems to conspire to endow it with a felicity, beauty ami grandeur directly j derived from the occasiou. Secretary Blaiue's farewell to the Pan American conference is one of these unusual, mas terly uttereuces, combining all that is 1 dignified, weighty and elevating in pro ceedings, that, if not pierced to their ultimate cousequeuces, might appear petty and frivolous. In his speech Mr. Blaiue touched the very pith and sub stauce of what the conference had really accomplished." Such praise, from this conservative but scholarly journal, is indeed high praise. The Memphis, Tenn., board of health has ordered the destruction of ninety tive pestilence breeding human rookeries and the fumigation of a hundred or so more. Mempnis evidently means to do her part toward preventing a fever plague this summer, an example it were well for all to follow, north a§ well as south. It is revolting to read that live female Dahomiao warriors who were held as prisoners by the French were recently beheaded in retaliation for the aim liar execution of four French soldiers cap tured by the bahomlans The repre sentatives of a civilised nation should be above barbarism of that type. In some English factories is an ar rangements by which the engine can be stopped by the breaking of a glass ball attached to the wall in any room iu the building. you"g girl whose clothing had become entangled in the machinery was recently saved by the successful working of this device. The old-fashioned vaults at the treas ury department in Washington are tiring fixed over since an expert locksmith demonstrated to the astounded officials that he could get tnto some of the most “burglar proof of them in fifteen minutes It is strange to see Mr. Cleveland so sensitive about his sire.

It is seldom, however, that the nuptial day is so crowded full of mem oriesas was that of a Dover, N. H youth who was recently married in Biddeford. He csme before the pnPce court in the morning, but in spite of this embarrassing It le episode was able to be before the alter in the evening The ceremony was duly celebrated and the happy pair went on their way rejoicing. The death rate is reported to have been unusually low in Maine the present month, s fact which is probably due. in no small degree, to the pleasant weather we have enjoyed. M. D Noyes and his nephew, G lbert Noyes, had quite an experience with a bear a few days since. They were returning from 4lder stream when they came across a hollow tree, which f rom appearan ms thev concluded to be the home of hedgehogs. They immediately set to work to smoke them out. Before they had gone far, how ever, 'hey were surprised by the sudden appearance of a bear’s hetd at the opening and an evident disposition on the part of the awakened bruin to have a square meal after his long fast. Luckily young Noyes carried a Heavey cantdog in his hand and with great presence of mind struck the bear a heavy blow across the nose with it- The blow stunned him. and he was quickly kill ed by driving the pick iuto bis brain This is the first bear story of the season. We trust that all which follow it may be equal ly free from casuali-ies and have a similar happy ending. The Maine Central will undoubtedly have the largest and most profitable run of busi ness the coming summer which it has had in its whole history. Everything shows that the Maine boom is built of substantial material. The people of Aroostook still continue to show their appreciation of the great work which the Journal is doing for that county in making known to the world its magnifi cent resources. The Journal is a live paper with the interests of Maine at heart, and it is glad to know from the warm en couragement that is given it, that its push and enterprise ia appreciated. This is a world abundantly blessed with incons ruiti* s. A lady recently came into a Maine bookstore and purchased a very niae wallet worth nearly $5 00 and got trusted for it! The clerk has not decided yet just why it was that she did not strike him for a quarter with which to christen it The arrangements for the 1791-1891 an niversary of Berwick Academy are being vigorously prosecuted by the alumni.

Miss Sarah Orne Jewett, the authoress, is one of the committee. Trout stories are beginning to come to the front. The longest measures about a foot—that is in type. We don’t know how it was with the fish. A law school could be started in Portland with a little push. It wouldn't have to go outside of the city to get one of the ablest faculties in the country. This has been a great month for the oainters. TRACK AND STABLE GOSSIP. We call tbe attention of those interested to the advertisement of the State Fair Colt States published this week.

No; that’s going a little too far. There have to be steels in it. Steels will break. We don’t mean the steels; but they are not the part that troubles corset-breakers. What we mean is the "bones" don’t break. The reason is they are Kabo, not bones at all; and Kabo don't break. This corset that never breaks is the Kabo, mysteri ous Kabo, wonderful Kabo. Let every corset-breaker make the acquaintance of Kabo. If the corset doesn't suit you, after wearing a week or two or three, bring it back to us and get your money; and, if the Kabo breaks or kinks in a year, come back for your money.

Not a house in right —not to much as a barn, a toll gate or grist mill; nothing but bleak hillaidee, scantily clothed with scrubby pine*; grim, black boughed evergreen woods and pasture lands, where the cattle hud dled in the corners of the fences to es cape the knife like point of the keen west wind! And, of a gray sunny afternoon like this, with the sullen rush of the river booming in the valley below, and a knot of crows cawing mournfully in the tree tops above the farmhouse roof, it was lonelier still. Mr. Trott was in the kitchen, with a solder kettle bubbling over the fire; h* was mending a huge kettle wherewith he proposed to rifle the sweetness of a neighboring grove of maple trees in the coming month of Ma.xh. Mrs. Trott waa studying out the complicated pattern of a new device in patchwork, lent her by a friend, with half a dozen blocks of Tur key red, four of white and two of corn colored calico; and Deborah, the only 'laughter, was trimming over her Sunday hat with newly ironed pink ribbons and a cluster of artificial rosebuds which she had bought cheap at the clearing off sale of the Stock bridge milliner—and all three were silent. Suddenly the clock struck, with a whirring sound, like an asthmatic lo cust! “Is that 4 o’clock?” said Mrs. Trott, still puzzling over the blocks of Turkey ICU. “That’s 4 o’clock,” said Mr. Trott, look ing into the boiling silvery mass over the stove. “We shall have to light a candle soon," said Mrs. Trott. For she had never seen that modern AlxnniuatioD, a gaslight, and made it her boost that no drop of kerosene had ever crossed tier threshold. She burned symmetrical white candles of her own running, in obi fashioned brass candlesticks with snuffers and ex tinguishers to match. “I wonder where Isaiah is? We need new logs for the sit ting room tire to-night. Squire Draper's son told me he should drop in. in a friendly way." Pretty Delnirah frowned over the bunch of rosebuds: she was adimpled, blueeyed girl, quite unaccustomed to the business of frowning, so that it was rather an effort for her to contract her bronze brown browrs. “Isaiah," slowly repeated Mr. Trott, still intent on the kettle. “Why, I’vs sent Isaiah over to Marshall Hill's with that fifty dollar bill!" Mrs. Trott dropped her spectacles. “Thomas Trott! You haint, never!" cried she. “Yes, I have," said Thomas Trott. “Why shouldn’t I? Whitef«x»t is lame, and I've no notion of walking over to Hill’s with my rheumaticky old bones. And the interest on my note is due to duy, so I just gave it to Isaiult, and told him to step lively and get back before dusk." Mrs. Trott drew* an ostentatiously long sigh. Then you may be very sure of ons thing, Trott," said she. "You’ll never sea neither Isaiah nor that fifty dollar bill again." “Why not?" said her spouse, staring. “Because Isaiah Ix-longs to a gypsy race, and lx>cause all our neighlmrs ad vised us not to take him in when we did!" “He’s worked just as well as if there wasn’t gypsy blood in him. hasn’t he?" demanded the farmer, sternly. “I don't say but what he has," ad mitted Mrs. Trott. “I only know that w hat's bred in the bone won’t 6rrub out of the flesh, and it ’ll be just like Oypsy Isaiah to cut and run with that fifty dol lar bill. And you're a bigger fool than I took you for. to trust a wild fellow like that with solid money." But here pretty Delx>rah rose, flushed and panting, from hf*r chair. “Mother!" she cried, her blue eyes ail aflame, “you shall not talk so! Isaiah it as true and good and noble ns if the blood of kings ran in bis veins." “Hoity-toity!" cried Mrs. Trott in amazement. “And what is Isaiah Black burn to you?" “Just this," said De)>orah; “that I’m engaged to him.*’ “Engaged to—marry him?" “Yes—to marry him." “Debby," said Mrs. Trott. “are you crazy?" “I love him, mother," Debby simply made response. “And he loves me—and we are to married as soon as he has laid up a little money to rent a farm of his own." “Indeed!" said Mrs. Trott, frowning darkly. “And your parents' consent, I suppose, is a matter of no consequence whatever?" “We thought, mother," said Debby, with downcast eyes, “that you would offer no objection to what would make me so very, very happy." “Perhaps," rigidly added Mrs. Trott, “you don't know* that Orlando Draper is coming to-night with the especial inten tion of making an offer of marriage tc you—Squire Draper’s son, with a red brick house and a bank account at Stock "Then he may go away again,” said Dabby, resolutely. "For I never, never will marry anyone but Iaaiah Blaok burn!” "A stray gypey lad, brought up in tha woods, with nobody knows who for his father, and a knack for chicken stealing at his finger ends,” sneered Mrs. Trott. "Mother!" pleaded the girl. "Noy, Betsey, don't,” said the farmer; "that ain't fair. Isaiah *s as good a young chap as ever stepped. And if you'll just remember. I was aa poor as any gypsy of the lot when first we mar ried. Deborah's my only child, and ah* shan't he teased! Come here. Pussy, and give the old father a kiss.” And the stormy February afternoon darkened into snowy nightfall, and Debby gazed wistfully down the road, wondering why her lover hsd _>ot re turned. "He has had time to go to Marshall Hill s and back twice,” she said to her self. "It is strange,” said Mr. Trott. "Isa iah ain’t one to loiter, in general.” "Didn’t 1 tell you so?*’ said Mra.

Paid me that there fifty-dollar interest money, and I give him a receipt four good hours ago. Ain’t he got home yetT And Thomas Trott scrambled once more into the sleigh and drove rapidly away. Upon a dreary side hill, where to the left a steep precipice extended almost perpendicularly downward, and a fir clothed slope seemed to reach upward to the right. Obi Whitefoot stopped sudden ly. Thomas Trott caught up his whip with energy. “That's the second time you’ve done it. old fellow r cried he. “You shied just so when we came by before.” But ail in vain the whip descended. Whitefoot stood with bristling mane, dis tended nostrils and four feet firmly im planted in the snow, obstinately refusing to proceed. “I declare,” cried the farmer, scratch ing his puzzled head, “if 1 was a believer in such things, I should a’xuost think Whitefoot saw a ghost.” At that moment there came a brief lull in the storm and tempt>st, and as Farmer Trott sat there he heard a groan. “It ain't the old pine tree creaking,” said he, “nor yet it ain’t the wind. It's something human." And straining his eyes through the snow illuminated darkness he saw a figure crouched in a crevice of rock half way down the steep precipice, clinging to a cluster of stunted savin bushes. “Help!" it cried feebly. “Help! help!" “Bless me!” said Farmer Trott, “it's our Isaiah!” And so it was. Plodding homeward from his errand, his foot had slipped in the storm and darkness, and falling half way down the hill, he had broken his leg and badly bruised himself, only es caping from a still more disastrous fat* by holding desperately to the savin roots. “1 don't know what I should hav* done if you had not heard my voice,” said he. “1 could not have held on much longer.” “And you may thank old Whitefoot for that.” said Mr. Trott, as he helped Isaiah into the sleigh, “ile'd a-stopped nn lliu (For ilmrn if I v.tul.l hov, lal him." So Isaiah Blackburn reached the old farm house safely at last, where Debby and her mother were anxiously Bitting up, and told his tale. Mrs. Trott hurst into tears. “Isaiah," said she, “I spoke evil of you, and I'm sorry for it." And Deborah's blue, tear wet eye* •poke all that was needed on her part. They were married in the early spring, and Isaiah rented half of the Trott farm, and lives in the wing of the old house, a select tenement of three roon with his blue eyed wife. “I do believe. Debby," says her moth er, “you've got the best husband in the world l” And Debby, playfully parodying her mother, says: “Didn’t I tell you so?*’—Amy Randolph in New York Ledger. PERSONAL GOSSIP.
