V THE TIMES. Published Every Thursday. DR. J. II. DANIEL, Editor and Proprietor. OCR WASHINGTON LETTER. (From OurRogular Correspondent J The effort of President Cleveland to place Wheeler H. Peckham npon the Supreme Bench of the Unitec States has failed, as did a 'similar endeavor as to William B. Hortiblows er. There is perhaps, a trifle ot" com fort for Mr. Peckham's friends in the fact that Mr. Peckharns Gtness is not involved, th.it Mr. Peckham is a mere incident, as it were a iris fling gram of corn, in the grinding of which the upper and nether party mill stones have become dangerously heated. This diQIculty as to who bhall fill the vacancy on the bench has gone far beyond a personal differs ence of opinion bstwecn the PresU dent aud his arhenemy. It may be that Mr. Cleveland will with his next nomination endeavor allay the fire of strife, but it is not likely that ha will take any action which can be construed as a snrrcader to Hill. A the same time, the people demand that the Supreme Court vacancy be in public interest speedily filled. It is over seven months since Justice Blatchford died, and in the meantime the business of the Supreme Court has so greatly augmented as to ne cessitate prompt action. Contingent cies are rare when the Supreme Court justices are constrained to an alignment on party grounds. The memorable episode of 1877 s never likely to be repeated in the history of the government. The Senate is busy preparing for the great tariff debate, with the pros' pect that the discusion will continue for at least one or two months. The best authorities on the tariff are not always the men who say most about it in public, and a great many of the cleverest speeches delivered on the floor of the senate are not written by the men who deliver them. There are indeed few ready tariff debaters in the Senate and the running discussion of the Wilson bill will beconflnned to fiye or MX men. The other Senators Trill guard local interests and make set speeches. The Senators who will be beard most frequently are Vest, Mills, Jones of Arkansas. McPherson and Harrison the democratic side; Aldrich, Allison, Sherman, Teller and Lodge on the republican. Then ' there are Stewart on the republican side and Call on the democratic side, who will be on their feet as frequent ly as the rulers of the Senate permit, chiefly because they like to talk. i'ji. van is iuo nwru ui me iamous j jest: "The one thing more tiresome than a call of the House is the call of ihe Senate. Se: ator Sherman is preetmnentlv fitted to go into a tariff discussion. He has an 'awkwaur memory, which is of great value to the republican side in the tariff dis cussion. Great pressure will be brought to baro by the representa- tives of business interests to have the debate brought to a speedy ter- ruination, so that the country may know what business conditions it has to meet. But there is very little doubt in the minds of "those who know" that tue debate will drag for several weeks through the deliberate and circuitous "courtesy" of the Sen ate. It is very well known that Hon. Jerry .Simpson, the ambidextrous slugger of ravenous monopolies, was a sailor in his salad days aud went down to the sea in ships. It is not irpnprlli' L-nn..n i .

By nothig in his personality is his past life so strongly accentuated as by his trousers. They' are tight m the waist, tight in the seat, and have the regular seaman's "spring" at the bottom. He has several pairs, and ltTt ( they vary. Some are very sa indeed, and some only slightly saline, but they are all more or less sugs I creative of a wet sheet and a follow in4 sea and a wind that follows fast. Partially concealed by diplomatic clouds is a most interesting situation in which Great Bntan aud the United Siates are deeply concerned. That friction exists between the two governments as to the Bering Sea seal"fishery regulations is no secret, but it wa3 supposed that when the court of arbitration decided us to the legal rights and equities of the pow ers involytd all real trouble was at an end. But it was at once evident that Great Britain was very much disgusted at the findings of the arbi trators. Tue arbitrators decided against this country in its claim to supreme jurisdiction oyer Bering sea. but they gave to this nation a right to protect the seals from destruction . It seems to be understood eround the State and Navy Departments that the policy of seal protection during the season just about to open will be of t-he aggressive variety. This "will accord with the popular American idea. It might be well for some of the Senators to take steps to have the Constitution amended so that in the phrase "advice and content of the Senate" the word advice will appear in capital letters. THINKS HE HAS IT The Wilksboro Chronicle tells of a young man in the vicinity of Job's Cabin who has. invented what is thought to be a wheel of perpetual motion. The 3Toung man's name is Albert McNeil, son of Esq. G. W. McNeil. He is going to carry his wheel ' to Washington, accompanied by Dr. Triplett and J. F. Norns, thi latter part of this week, in order t obtain a patent upon it. Those who have learned anything about the wheel have great faith in it. He has been at work on it three years, although he has kept very quiet about it, not even letting his folks know. N. O. C. A STORY ON VANCE. Senator Zebulon Vance is the hero of this story, and it is Wade Hainp ton who tells. Zeb's client had been worsted in the lower court, and he took an appeal. It was his first argu . ment in the State Supreme Court, and you may Know was a tremens dousty heavy one. When the judges come to render a decision the chiet justice quoted Vances argument in full. As he wet along Vance looked around at the other lawyers in a way that showed he felt aorry for them, though, of course, he did not want to appear too proud. But he couldn,t conceal his opinion that that argument was the greatest one ever presented to the courts, for the judges who had sense enough to see this he felt the deepest respect. Well, after a time the chief justice finished the reading of that argument of Vance. Then lift paused for a mo ment, and with judicial deliberation said : "For these reasons we affirm the decision of the court below." Not folk Land ra ark. A good story is told of a well known Presbyterian minister of To ronto, who not long ago attended a swell dinner party while visiting in New York. It was a dinner amon the upper ten, at which the ladies sat idown to the table. "What did the i ladies wear?' asked the miniatPr'c wife, anxious to net a nointpr frrr l,er husband as u the latest fashions, WeI1 mY dear," responded the hus- band "really I could r.ol. tell from what I saw ulnivo the table, and von t K r , toioot o5ler it.
