The Washington correspondent of the Richmond Dispatch thus refers to Senator Vance's speech on the tariff. "Governor Vance to day made a lengthy and most interesting speech in favor of a revenue tariff, in which he strongly and logically presented his side of the question. It showed care ful preparation and labored research, and was relieved by a number of bright passages from the dullness which ordi narily characterizes purely financial speeches however able they may be. He pronounced prohibitory taxation robbery, and declared that it was on a par with that levied by Dick Turpin on Black-Heath Common, Both the mat ter of the speech and the earnest and attractive manner of its delivery en listed the attention of visitors and Sen ators alike. He read, for example.with effect, the decision of the Supreme Court in which prohibitory legislation is pronounced robbery, and said that as a lawyer and an honest man, he regard ed the opinion as sound law. Those who think that a brilliant, popular orator cannot be an effectual Senatorial peaker will find in Governor Vance a singular exception to this rule. When published and distributed it will be ex tensively read and attract much atten tion, especially in the South. He is highly complimented to-night bn the success of his effort. It was gratifying to his f rien ds that he had more hearers at the close than at the commencement of his speech, and that Senator Hoar, Hawley, and other Republicans came over on the Democratic side to hear him." THE CONTEST FOR COLLECTOR. The latest advices inform us that the contest over the collectorship of tffis district, for which Mr. Cooper has been nominated by th3 President will be car ried into the Senate, where Cooper's confirmation will be strenuously op posed by Senator Vance, backed by the solid strength of the Democrats. It is thought that a sufficient number of Re publican votes can be secured to pre vent the confirmation. The ITorth State stalwart of this week in a lengthy editorial protests against the nomination of Cooper as a disastrous blow-at the party in this State, which will result in the forma tion of a third party in the event of his confirmation. The North State is the organ of the anti-Mott-Cooper combination which it asserts are as suming, to run the party in their own special interest, and by ways and means that will not bear the lights to be tamed on. It has been a hotly waged contest, and when it gets into the Senate, with Vance turned loose, we may expect some rich ments. and interesting develop- Mrs. Scoville, the sister of Chas. J. Guiteau. has written a letter to the widow of the late President Garfield, in which she pleads earnestly for the life of the assassin. She claims that her brother was "brain sick, deluded and crazy on that dark day in July," and beseeches Mrs. Garfield to "forgive him even as Christ shall forgive us all." It is complained in St. Louis that since the introduction of electric lights great difficulty has been experienced by the hotels in using the telephones. 0e of them has abolished it altogether, an other uses it only in the day, and a third finds it almost impossible to employ it satisfactorily. John Sherman is said to be a sort of walking refrigerator. THE HOUSE. Petitition Against the Anti.Polygamy Bill -Fixing up the Deficiency Appro priation. Washington, Feb. 18, House. The Speaker laid beforehe House a resolu tion of the Legislative Assembly, of Utah, opposing the anti-polygamy bills, and urging that a commission be ap pointed to go to Utah and investigate the affairs of that territory. Shelleberger presented a petition of the American Baptist Home Mission, representing one million persons, ask ing Congress to take early measures, to remove and prohibit polygamy through out the United States. Both were re ferred to the committee on the judici ciary. The morning hour was dispensed with and at 12.35 the House went into a com mittee of the whole on the immediate deficiency bill, which makes appropria tions of $1,822,983. Over the clause appropriating $500, 000 for the coustruction of "vaults in the treasury and sub-treasuries quite an interesting discussion arose upon he silver question. Hewitt, of New York, made a vigor ous attack upon the standard silver dol lar, characterizing it as a cheat and a fraud, and fiat money in its worst and most repulsive and objectionable sense, and assenting that it rendered all com mercial transactions cheating transactions.- Stephens, of Gergia, and Marsh, of Illinois, earnestly defended the silver dollar, declaring that it was the true unit of value. They characterized the act of 1873 as an act passed for the pur pose of degrading silver, and Marsh de clare that the cry that the standard dol lar was fraudulent was false in fact and untrue in principle. Springer, of Illinois, offered an amendment for the issue of certificates on silver bullion, but it was ruled out on a point of order. On a point of order by Blount, of Georgia, the clause for the payment of $600 extra salary to the deputy com missioner of pensions, and $500 to the thief clerk was ruled out : After discussing the clause relative to building the Jefferson school build ing in Washington, the committee arose and reported the bill to the House, when it was passed and the House ad journed. : Bank Failure.

Washington, D. G, Feb. 17. All in terest has centered at the Capitol this week where in one end the solons were venting their views on the polygamy question and at the other members were pounding the unoffending air in their exposition of the apportionment bill. In the Senate the Arrearages of Pension bill was laid aside for the mo ment and the political demagogue for the time being has dropped out of pub lic life. Speaking of this latter bill Beck's charge that it was conceived in sin and brought forth in iniquity, was literally true. There is a good deal of writing of the poppy-cock order now being indulged in by certain Southern correspondents anent Beck, and some have gone so far as to say that he has, JilacedXhe Democratic party in a false ight before the country on this partic ular question. Tbe inside history of how tnat bill for arrearages was brought about sustains Beck's charge. Acer tain claim agent in this city was Its originator. He had printed 500,000 cir culars calling on all soldiers to get up petitions in their sections and forward them to Congress. He furnished the wording of the petitions and all they had to do was to obtain the signatures. All know how easy it is to get up peti tions on any subject. As a rule they are meaningless, for the people who sifrn tbsm do so for accommodation. These circulars had not been distribu ted a month throughout the country before there came pouring in on Con gress a perfect flood " of petitions, all asking the same thing, the passage of the arrearages act. It was a new ques tion anA the average Congressman, whose view extends not beyond a re election, had not the courage to face the iniquity. This cowardice was not con fined to either party, for there are po litical cowards in both. The bill was rushed through in obedience to this fic titious demand, the claim agent has be come immensely rich, the treasury has been drained and the country now finds itself with a well-developed elephant on its hands. The Democrats are placed in a peculiar position ; to oppose the bill is to stand. Deiore the country ngnung Union soldiers; and to approve it is to sanction a raid on the treasury. It is a safe prediction to make that the latter horn or tbe dilemma will be grappled. But it was the polygamy bill and ap portionment bill that were to form the subjects' of this letter. After vain en deavors to put the Democrats on record as sanctioning polygamy, the bill was passed without a call of the Senators. Several important amendments were voted down by the Republicans and by them the bill was passed. As a party the Democrats voted against the bill, as also did the Independent party, which consists of 300 pounds of David Davis. The bill in substance provides that all election returns shall be counted by a board which shall issue certificates of election. It further disqualifies for candidates any poly gam is t, bigamist or person cohabiting with more than one woman. When Cannon, the Mormon delegate in Congress was twitted on the floor or the House about the plurality of his wives ana the question was as& ed him point blank how many wives he had he replied, much to the dtscomh ture of his questioner, who was a gay Lothario, "that he had wives enough to let the wives and daughters of other men alone. It will thus be seen that the only sec tion that actually loses in this appor tionment is JNew England, which sus tains a net loss of 2 members. All the other sections make net gains. Looking at the matter politically and taking the political stajtus of the sever al States and sections as a basis, and assuming that they will vote in future as in pasWthe 32 new members will stand 17 Republicans to 15 Democrats. This was about as liberal a division, politically, as could be expected from a Republican House. Gen. J. M. Leach, who, despite Col. Johnston's desperate posing before the country, is regarded as the Mahone of North Carolina, is here, with the inten tion it is believed of conferring with men in close sympathy with the admin istration as to the liberal movement that is to deluge North Carolina this coming summer. In a published inter view he is represented as saying that "Bourbonism in his State is corrupt, and that he is done with it forever." Following on the heels of this, repre sentative Republicans nominate Gen Leach as the leader of the great liberal party, who is to lead the hungry .hosts into the promised land. Coming from the same source is a statement that the Weekly Newbernian, published at New bern'has renounced the Democracy, and set up the flag of independentism. -All these things, while hailed with delight in rwepu oucan circles, ao not seem to disturb in the least the leaders of the Democracy in eitner noose. oi vxragress. The fact, however, that, Leach beaded the Hancock electoral 1 ticket has at tached some importance to his reported desertion and this new--recruit is held up in the full light that all may see.

Boston, Feb. 18.--A 'fire Started in the business portion of the town of Haverhill, Mass last night, and spread with errant raniriifcv . Ths small flro de partment bein.g unalblei t6 cape jyth the. flames, which soon got beyond control, assistance was telegraphed for to Law rence, Newt uryport, and other towns adjacent. The first direct report from Haverhill says: The JTrrstr National Bank, the Five Cent Savings Bank, and all of the lower part of Vashington street, haye been burned,, and there is no knowing where the fire will stop. The operator at-the depot says the firt is getting uncomfortably vdosft- and he is afraid he will be forced to, desert his post. The fire, he says, cbvers at least ten acres, pretty thickly- built upon. The Smith block, Finney block, Tilton biocK, rescott building, Jjishon build ing, union block, iwffln building, on Washington street, the filing building, on Wingate street, have gone. The loss will be several millions. Engines are coming from Newburyport and Dover. A number of families on Wingate street nave been burned out. This is the biggest fire that has ever occurred in this vicinity. The streets are lined with merchandise and iurniture, and there is no doubt but that a number of people are rendered homeless. Owing to the panicky feeling no really authen tiC reports can be got from any person in Haverhill. The main telegraph office has been burned, the connection be" tween the centra of the city and the depot.teiegraph omce being thus sev ered. At 3 :55 a.m. the fire was got under control. But one block remains on Wingate street, but two at the upper end of Washington street All else in the square bounded by the Merrimac river on South Washington Square, Es sex street on the East, the north side of Wingate street on the North and Rail road Square on the West, is burned to the ground. This territory embraces the largest part of the boot and shoe manufactories. The loss cannot be es timated at present What yesterday was the finest street in the city and the principal business mart is to-day a smouldering, shapeless mass of ruins Some eighty shoe firms are entirely burned out and others suffer more or less damage. Men who were last night worth thousands are this morning pen niless, while the losses of others are fully or partially covered by insurance. Two thousand people are out of em Dlovment and several families home less. The loss is estimated at two mil lion dollars. The most dreadful feature of the ca lamity is the loss of life and the awful uncertainty caused to many anxious hearts. It is feared that the bodies of a score or more of prominent business men are buried in the ruins. Thus far three are known to be dead. Of the buildings burned most of them are brick blocks, about sixty were occupied oy eighty-six firms. About 2,500 people are thrown out oi employment : Pieking up the Oyster Grabbers.
