The impression prevailed some time
ago when Senator Brown, of Georgia,
offered a resolution in the Senate for
the appointment of a clerk for every
Senator, that the Georgia gentleman
was indulging in a little bit of humor,
but when Senator Morgan yesterday
urged the providing of a messenger for
each Senator there wasn't a bit of fun
in it, for he was in downright earnest,
and we gather from his endorsement of
Brown's resolution, or amendment to a
resolution by some one else, that Brown
was not joking either, but in dead earn
est, Mr. Morgan in furthering his de
mand for messengers imparts a piece of
information that will surprise some
people, and that is that so many of our
honored Senators are martyrs to duty
. and are killing themselves with work,
doing twenty-five or thirty times the
amount of labor that members of the
lower House are called upon to do. We
knew all along that the boys in the
House were having a pretty good time,
but we were not aware of the fact that
the select circle in the Senate were being
sacrificed in that way on the altar of
duty, and mercilessly worked to death.
They seem, however, to stand the
martyrdom pratty well notwithstand
ing, and seem to be perfectly willing
to go right along and continue to
die that way, for we have not
yet heard of any of them resigning that
they might escape death and live. ' If
it comes to this, however, and amounts
to a question of dead Senators and live
messengers and clerks, by all means let
Mr. Morgan's plaintive appeal be list
ened to considerately, nor be made
sport of, for this country could not get
along without its great Senate. Dead
Senators worked to death would be
a greater calamity than one hundred
and forty odd fourteen hundred dollar
messengers and clerks. Let this mor
tuary havoc cease, though it may cur
tail the business of the Washington un
dertakers, and if clerks and messengers
can save the lives of our Senators, why
let the saviors be summoned to come
fortii and that quickly, before another
victim falls crushed beneath the weight
of work.
As hard worked and poorly paid a?
they are if they were selfish they would
resign, but they patriotically and hero-
ially stick to the post of duty, and
face threatened death with a devotion
and resolution trulv admirable. Not
only that but when the first term of
duty expires they are always willing to
magnanimously sacrifice themselves
again and again and go right along
killing themselves with hard work for
their dear country. We never fully
realized what a fearfully rough time
, our Senators had, and how cruelly they
were worked until we read Mr. Mor
gan's remarks. Hereafter we shall re
gard the poor United States Sena
tor with more tender compassion, and
extend to him that heartfelt sympathy
to which his hard lot entitles him.
Talmage's Tabernacle, it is estimated,
will yield an income of $25,000 this
year.
Ireland has 576,000 holdings, 50,000 of
them less than an acre mere town lots,
Of the rest, about 150,000 tenants are
excluded from the benefits of the land
act by the size of their holdings, and of
the rest 300,000 G2,331 have already
made application to the Land Court In
970 cases decided, the average reduc
tion in rent i3 about 25 per cent.
Chas. F. Kring, of St Lous, is a hard
man to hang. He was convicted of the
murder of a woman in 1875, but by the
manipulation of smart counsel has sue
ceeded in getting five trials, and now
the Supreme Court of the United -States
has set aside the decision of the Su
preme Court of the State, which gives
him another chance for bis life.

Macon Ga. Telegraph : "It is pretty
much in politics as it is in astronomy,
When a one-horse star cuts loose from
its own home circle to cruise for itself
it generally brings up with a crash in
the system which attracts it most ; and
when an ambitious Democrat cuts loose
from his party he is independent only
during the time it takes him to land
with a splutter among the Bepubli
cans."
It is now believed that the reason
why so many Democratic Senators op
pose the repeal of the arrears of pen
sions act is because they think the He
publicans only sprang the question of
repeal to trap them. The idea is that
if the Democrats favored the repeal i
would so prejudice the soldier vote
against the party as to lead to its de
feat in 1884. It was the fear of offend
ing the ex-soldiers and losing their votes
prevented serious opposition to which
the bill when it passed, and the same
thing now prevents its repeal.

Interesting-Marriage in Pintvl le
To the Editor of the Observer:
The evening of the 14th February,
1882, will long be remembered by the
citizens of Pineville as a very interest
ing epoch in her history the occasion
being the marriage of two of her most
accomplished and popular young peo
ple. By 7 o ciock p. m. a very large au
dieDce had assembled in the Presbyte
rian -church to witness the marriage
which was to take-place at half-past 7
o'clock. Soon the merry marriage bell
rang the hour which immediately pre
ceeded the entrance of the bridal party
in the following order: Miss Annie
Grier, Mr. J. 5. Miller, Miss Mattie
Grier, Mr. W. M. Morrow; Miss Maggie
Barnett, Mr. H. E. Morrow; Miss J una
Shell, Mr. W. E. Younts; Miss Alice
Grier, Mr. J. J. McCreieht ; Miss Beu-
lah Younts, Mr. E. W. Russell ; who,
proceeding down the two aisles of the
church, crossed to opposite- sides in
front of the pulpit Following after
came the contracting parties, Miss Em
ma M. Grier and Mr. Junius A.Russell,
who took position immediately in front
of the pulpit in full view of and facinc
the audience. It was indeed a beauti
ful sight and one which will not soon
be forgotten. A handsome arch ot
evergreens spanned the hall, depending
irom which was a miniature horse shoe
wreathed in laurel encircling the silver
letters J. A. R. and M E. G. Under this
beautiful arch stood the bridal couple,
and as we looked upon their pure and in
nocent young races, we almost imagined
ourselves in fairy land, and we kuow
that many a silent prayer went up to
God that nothing might ever mar the
joy and happiness or these pure young
nearcs.
The ceremony was beautifully and
impressively performed by Rev. John
Hunter, assisted bV Rev. L.. She! .
Much credit is due Mr. J. II. Ross and
Mr. J. H. Barnett. for the very happy
ana pleasant manner in which they dis
charged the duties of ushers on the oc
casion. Ohl this was all nice, so nice
But to many the next step in the pro
gramme was more splendid when the
invited guests were ushered into the
hospitable mansion and were seated
around the bountiful board of Mr. Ar
thur Grier, the father of the bride
Something nice was expected, but the
supper was too good for the average
epicure. While no attempt was made
at unnecessary display or extravagance
tne repast was simply magmheent and
everybody went away satisfied that it
was good that they were there. The
bridal presents were both numerous
and valuable, unmistakable evidence of
the very high regard entertained for the
young couple.
A splendid dinner was given yester
day by J. W. Morrow, Esq, uncle of the
groom.
We here leave our young friends with
many congratulations, and bespeak for
them a life of happiness and pleasure.

II and Shake on it,
Richmond, Va Feb. 15. The ru
mors which have prevailed since yes
terday atternoon to the effect that Sen
ators Smith, of Alexandria, and Riddle-
berger meditated a hostile meeting
were given their quietus to-day in the
Senate chamber by Smith who, rising
to a question of personal privilege, and
referring to the differences which oc
curred the day before between the Sen
ator from Shenandoah and himself,
frankly confessed that he left the house
on that occasion with no friendly feel
ings. Since then he had been assured
by his friends and his own cooler re
flection conhrmed their opinion, that
ne snouia nave been satisfied with the
disclaimer made by the Senator. He
was now satisfied that Riddleberger
had said all that he (Smith) had a right
to exact from the gentleman, and he
took this occasion of expressing his re
gret at tne onensive language he had
used.
Senator Riddleberger said that ho had
meant on yesterday to say everything
that would be satisfactory to the Sena
tor irom Alexandria, lie never meant
to do less than that which he deemed
would be satisfactory to him and he
nopedtne senator now felt as kindly
towards him as he (Riddleberger) felt

IN CONGRESS
THE SENATORS WANT RI ESSEN
6ERS FOR COMMITTEES, AND
TACKLE THE ANTI-POLYGAMY
BILL..
The Hoote Kotnmea the Debate on
the Apportionment Bill and De
votee Mont of tne Day to that Ques
tion Washington, Feb. 15. Senate.
Miller, of California, made an adverse
report upon the Senate bill to confer

ficers of the engineer corps of the Uni
ted States Navy, indefinitely postponed.
J acKson introduced tne Dill present
ed by Morgan in the last Congress
for tne relief of doojc agents of tne
Methodist Episcopal Church South. It
appropriates one hundred ana ntty
thousand dollars in compensation for
property connected with the publish
ing house of said book agents in Nash
ville wnicn was tanen or destroyed Dy
the United States in 1864 or at any oth
er time.
The resolution offered by Call was re
ferred to the committee on foreign af
fairs directing the secretary of State
to open negotiations witn Spain for re
mitting the tax on cattle imported into
Cuba from the United States.
A resolution reported by Piatt from
the committee on contingent expenses
to provide a messenger for each of the
committees on finance, postpffices, pen
sions claims, judiciary and engrossed
bills, was discussed. . The aDsolute ne
cessity of a provision to facilitate com
mittee business was generally coincided
n, and on motion of lngaiis tnedistr c:
committee was included in tberesolu-
ion.
Morgan offered and advocated an
amendment providing a messenger for
each Senator who is not a chairman of
a committee. He said that by reason
of the onerous character of their duties
many Senators were literally working
themselves to death. Their labors being
from 25 to 30 times as great as those
devolved upon members of the House.
He thought the resolution introduced
by Mr. Brown for a clerk to every Sen
ator not already supplied witn one as
committee chairman, ought to be pass
ed. Several memDers attacked tne res
olution as calculated to increase the
already too numerous army of useless
employees of Congress.
Morgan s amendment was rejected
yeas 10, nays 28, and the resolution as
modined, on motion of Piatt, was pass
edyeas 33, nays 15. It directs appoint
ments to be made by the sergeant-at-arms
upon selections made by commit
tees, providing that the messengers so
appointed snail not be paid tor that
part of the year during which the Sen
ate is not in session, and regulates their
pay at the rate of $1,400 per year.
i ne senate tnen, at 2 o ciock, look up
and temporarily passed over the regular
order the anti-polygamy bill, and Call,
on leave, addressed the Senate in sup
port of the proposed amendment to the
pension arrears resolution, declaring in
lavor or pensionsto survivors of the
Indian wars prior to 1845. He said that
every argument in favor of the grant
ing and continuance of pensions to sol
diers oi the late war applied with equal
force in behalf of the disabled of the
Mexican and Indian wars.
At 2:25, the anti-polygamy bill, to
amend section 5,252 of the Revised
Statutes of the United States, in refer
ence to bigamy, and for other purposes,
was taken up and amendments pro
posed by te committee on the judiciary
were read.
lne sections and amendments were
agreed to up to the fifth section, which
authorized the President bp grant am
nesty to classes of offenders guilty be
fore the passage of the act of bigamy,
polygamy of unlaw! ulco-habitation, on
such conditions as he shall think
proper.
The wholesale exercise of the par
doning power contemplated 'in this
section was objected to as trenching
upon tne legislative prerogatives, but
aner some discussion the section as
amended and the remaining committee
amendments up to the 8th section were
adopted.
The 8th section provides .for the con
duct of elections, registration and can
vassing of votes, etc., in a territory
until provision for the same is made
Dy legislative assemDiy provided in a
bill by the apppointeesof a board of five
persons, to be appointed by thePresi
dent and confirmed by the Senate, all
or wnom snau not De memDers or one
political party, etc.
Brown moved to amend so as to re
quire that not more than three of the
board shall be of same political party.
Several of the members debated this
section until 4.40, when a motion for
executive session was lost, yeas 21,
noes 29, and after several efforts to se
cure an adjournment for avote on the
bill, interspersed with motions Ito ad
journ, it was finally agreed that the
measure should be proceeded with im
mediately after the morning business
to-morrow, and the debate upon it clos
ed at 5.30 p. m.
Upon this understanding, Edmunds
in charge of the bill, consented to an
adjournment.
Coke, on leave, introduced a bill, ap
propriating $100,000 for continuing the
improvement of Galveston harbor,
Texas,
At 5.40 the Senate adjourned.
House. The morning hour having
been dispensed with the House resum
ed the consideration of the apportion
ment bill and Hubert, of Alabama,
continued his speech m opposition to
any increase4in the membership of the
House.
It was said that large bodies had the
advantage of Deing more difficult to
corrupt, Dut he contended that more
members would bring more schemes.
Just in proportion as thejnembership
was increased the members would lose
their individuality and perspnal"f e-
sponsiDinty, ana wouia reiy upon com
mittees. A corrupt man instead of en
deavoring to corrupt the Mouse would
apply himself to the committees The
committees could not be made large
enough to put tbem beyond the reach
of temptation. He favored a constitu
tional amendment limiting the number
of representatives.
The debate on,4ae apportionment
bill occupied the remainder of the day s
session after it was taken up, to the
exclusion of all other business. ,
Thompson, of Kentucky, who was en
titled to the floor for the last hour of
the debate before the demand for the
previous question was recognized, but
feeling unwell he yeilded to the mo
tion tjo adjourn which was voted down
Dy tne republicans.
An arrangement was finally agreed to
whereby at the conclusion of one hour's
debate to-morrow the previous question
shall be considered as seconded and
before voting UDon thn various nrnnrv
sitions begin a vote will also be allowed
upon the question as to whether the
old or new method of apportionment

The House at 5.15 adjourned.

Bald monntaiu on a Slide.
Washington, Feb. 15. A special
from Asheville, N. C., says on Monday
a section of Bald Mountain half a mile
square slid off into the valley with a
crash that shook the earth and fright
ened the inhabitants for miles around.
The horror was as great but not so
long continued as four years ago when
it was expected -that Bald Mountain
would become a volcano. No explana
tion is offered, but many speculations
are made. People are afraid to venture
upon close examination.
Senator Hill's Tongue.
PniLAUELPHiA, Feb. 15. Notwith
standing the reports to the contrary,
the professors at Jefferson Medical Col
lege informed a representative of the
Associated Press, at 6 p. m., that Sena
tor Hill's condition was very favorable,
and that the operation on the Senator's
mouth, performed about a week ago,
was a highly satisfactory one, and Hill
was now getting along well.

fThe Evening Post's Cotton Market Report says
utore deliveries at the first call opened 7 poluts
lower, but advanced Immediately and the call clos
ed about 1 to 2 points high than yesterday at the
dosing. After the call prices rose 6 points; May
for Instance from 11.77.72 to 11.78, but lost
again until Mar was sold at 11.66. At the second
U May brought 11.72.73 and was run up after
the call, at 1.15 p, m . to 11.81. This will best
show the unsettled and feverish state of the mar
ket As soon as the demand falls off or orders
arrive to sell prtoes fail and on the contrary re
newed buying sends them up. The opinion as to
the near future evidently differs a good deal, yet
on the whole the feeling would seem to Improve,
at least the recent great depression has come to
an end.
