House and those were excellent speech
es delivered on both sides of th ques
tion of repealing by -riders on appro

Statutes 'which authorizes the use of
trooDs at the polls Son election; days.
It causes one to think better if his 1
i m
country to read the arguments employ
ed by the opposing forces and to; study
the line of battle, laid down by the con
testants. Knott, of Kentucky, i spoke
fir3t for the Democrats and was follow
ed by Houck, Republican, of Tennessee.
Secor Robeson, Grant's secretary 'of the
navy, followed against the line of poli
cy laid down by the Democrats, and
iudied bv the telegraphic synopsis of
his remarks it is i not to' be denied that
he made - a -' telling speech. 1$ was
a strong and captivating presentation,
of his side of the ease, and it is much to
doubted if more could have been' made
of it than was made of it by this crea
ture of unsavory record. ,
But tlie -peech of the dayj was that
delivered by Blackburn, of Kentucky.
It was a most happy and effective ob
servation which marked the introduc
tion of the logical, eloquent and manly
effort which followed, when hp said,
in reply to Robeson that "the per
formance would not have beenj com
plete, would not have been )f airly
rounded off, unless some member of
the privy council of thali imperialistic
dynasty under whpse administration
the very vicious practice had grown up
to what it was now sought to Repeal,
had testified on the floor on its behalf."
Only this in reply to Grant's henchman,
and. then he addressed himself to Gar
tleld who had spoken only & few days
before on the same question. The as-,
sociated press gave us an outline of this
speech lengthy and most excellent.
A few passages from this report had
fc be omitted from yesterday Ob
server, oo account of the very un
usually late hour at which the 'report
closed, and to-day we take much pleas
wre in laying before our readers so
inuch of this speech as was necessarily
crowded from out columns yesterday
The speech was so forcible and striking
t hat we can afford to withhold no part
of it, and taken in connection with that
which was prmtedjyesterday, tjie fol
lowing will be readily understood :
What provision of the Iederl con
stitution undertook to clothe anybody,
either the President -himself: or foneo
his privy council, the Secretary of State,
to sit as he had done on the floor of the
House last Saturday and by his presence
and approval seem to intimidated over
awe and brow-beat the. American Con
gress? Derisive laughter on the Re
publican side. Who had commission
ed the gentleman from Ohio to tell the
House that it had better be careful be
cause the issue was marie arid tlie Presi
dent would not be coerced into a ioieas
ureof approval?-1 Did the gentleman
from Ohio or any ether gentleman, put
such a low estimate on the self-respect,
the integrity, the courage and the man
hood of the House, without regard to
party, as to believe that such a i threat,
so flaunted, was to intimidate the law
making branch-of the- government and
shape its action-on measures of legisla

IONIjon, April 4. In the House of

between the Porte and Greece, regard
ing the settlement of the frontier opei

commended a resolute guidance of the
forte by the great powers to induce it
to comply with their wishes as express
ed at the Berlin conference.

had known matters of considerably less

WASHiNGTOvspril 4.--Harsc3--rbe
House met air liOur earlier llf an Hne
uantditinta iif mmWvmmkm to g i ve that
extension to the general debate, which
closes at 3 o clock to-day.
The first to address the House was
Singleton, of Mississippi, who stated the
question to be, whether the House had
the courage and determination to re
Deal DeriuciolB il&ws.ioE-nsould5 Salter
and fail in its'duty id the coUntr. He
admitted that under - the present ad
ministration, no troops had been sta
tioned at the polls, but no one could
foretell whether the course of the last
administration in that respect might
not be foUovredJn the next, lie thought
that the return of certain entlem.eu.to
public lif (meaning- perhaps Senators
Chandler and Logan) boded no good to
the republic, jn the face of the dhv
jgraceful 'law whieli it was tiow -proposed
to repeal, the'taated freedom of
America was a mockery ahd: a lie. . In
conclusion. Sincieton stated (in refer
ence to the supervisors' law) that party
fealty taught mm to submit to party
dictates." He, therefore, iaocepted the
partial repeal of "tha supervisors' law,
with notice to all poncemea tnat ne ac
cepted it only as the first instalment of
long-aeiayeu justice 10 an uppiccu
oeoole. and that he should in all? time
to come labor, in season and out of sea
son, to secure the repeal of every line,
word and letter of that law.
The next speech was made by Y eav-
er, of Iowa, one ol the .Greenback repre
sentatives. Heileprecatea keeping open
sectional animosities. He ridiculed the
pretensions put forward, yesterday, by
Knott, of Kentucky, as to Providence
guiding the Democratic party, as of
old He did the chosen people through the
desertnd suggested that the gentleman
was to the army of Pharaoh that the Dem
ocratic party was to be likened. He pre
dicted that in 1880 the Democratic can
didate for the presidency would, instead
of reaching the goal, meet nis doom as
-m w i l j 1 r A T .1 .
Moses uau met nis on jiouni ieuo.
Unless that party would give, relief to
the country in financial ineAsures, it
would have forfeited its opportunities
for victory in 1880. He raised a laugh
by desenbing how the two political
parties in the House, after waging a
titter partisain war, during the week,
met together every Saturday and voted
like brothers to carry over tne session
till Thursday, so as to prevent The
Party of the Centre" from introducing
measures ot financial renet. ihe oia
parties, he sakl, were powerless to give
renei ; iney were partres vt moou, aim
as David, being a man oi blood, was
not permitted to build the temple at Je
rusalem, they would not be permitted
to build tne temple or American hber
tv. The new party, which was theon-
ly healthy and growing party in the
country, wanted m sol4ii-at41inoUft-:
wanted no test-oath tor jurors, and was
opposed to theteoncesitcatu of power
in tne nanas ot tne appropriation com-
mittee. His speech was a great success
and was occasionally applauded on
both sides.
Weaver was followed by three other
Greenbackers, DeLaMatyr.of Indiana,
Jones, ot Texas, anu Wright, ot Penn
sylvania. DeLaMatyre announced his
intention to vote, for the bill as it
stands; Jones opposed the placing of
political legislation on an appropriation
hill; Wright condemned the re-opening
of the dead issues of the war and
predicted defeat m 1880 for the party
that raised them. During a long course
of service in the House he had never
heard disputed the right of the House
to engraft on appropriation bills other
necessary measures of legislation
Hawlev, of Connecticut, followed, de
nouncing the purpose of the majority
which would leave the government to
be carried on by the voluntary service
of its officers or by voluntary subscrip
tions such as flowed into the treasury in
18(i0. It was threatened by gentlemen
of that majority that if the President
should veto-tlie bill they would apply
the thumb-screws to the minority m
order to obtain a two-thirds majority,
and failing in that that the appropria
tions should fail. To that programme
the minority would invariably vote"nay''
to the end- of the chapter.
Tuckero Virginia, next spoke. He
denied; that th$. President had any right
to question ine mode ot proceedings
used by Congress, and if he vetoed
the pending measure he must do so on
its merits and not on account of the
method of i-the passage. Those merits;
he said, took away from his excellency
the right to preside, with, his troops at
the polls. Gentlemen on the other side
said that they would never yield, lie
wouUtell them thttt in the coiffliet be
tween power ana nuerty, it power
would jiotjield liberty wap' just as fiMnj
Itmight be said that he (Tucker) as a
Southern man was opposed to the
army. He denied it; he had never
voted for any bill which would impair
its, efficiency;;, Mt, be favored the army

A Beally Keaeflcent Discovery.
The disgust so generally felt for the taste and
8mellof cod Liver Oil Is almost proverbial. It
seems to be peculiarly nauseous to the consump
tive and scrofulous patients, to whom the whole
medical profession know It is specially beneficial.
Endeavors have vainly been made to disguise its
objectionable characteristics, by mixture with cof
fee, brandy, or by the process of deoderization,
which impairs its efficacy as a nutrient
But in union with the Hypophosphites of Lime
and Soda, as we find it in Scott's Emulsion. It re
tains its healing and nourishing properties. It
moreover combines with the other chemical agents,
to produce not only a medicine of agreeable flavor,
but one of the most powerful and pleasant tonics,
that ever gave vital vigor t the nerves and brain.

A Remedj that has beea Bemedlea .
The Invincible repugnance felt by almost every
one to the smell and flavor of Cod Liver Oil, has
prevented tens of thousands of the victims of de
bility, from reaping the benfits of peculiar healing
and nutritive properties. The almost hopeless
consumptive, the martyr to rheumatism, the bare
ly living shadow of men, women and children that
emerge from the clutches of malarial fevers, all of
these know, or at least their doctors know, that of
all discovered remedies, this oil Is the best, and of
ten the only one that will build up their wasted
bodies, and restore their shattered nerves, and far
more effective than the oil by itself is Scott's Emul
sion of it, with the Hypophosphites of Lime and
Soda. This Is the finest and most natural food
and medicine In the world, and wholly deprived of
its disagreeable qualities.
