Thej people of Mississippi, he said, j had so much inter est in the bill that he felt constrained to present some further views in advo cacy; of the 1 measure, lie called Mr. Morgan's attention to the resolution in troduced by - him (Mr. Morgan) at a former session of the Senate, giving a' month's extra pair to congressional clerks. He .found no warrant in the constitution for such payment, if Mr. Morgan's theory of the constitutionality of the education bill was a true one.

WASHiNGtos, D. d, Feb. 25 Mr. Wheeler, of Alabama, from the commit tee on military affaiisi reported the mili tary academy appropriation 'bill, and it was referred to committee of the whole. (The 1 estimates on which the bill is based, including $314,403 for public works, aggregate 0717.950.)

The guarantee is to begin when the road has' been demonstrated to be a success by carrying a loaded ship of four thousand tons.) : t In the morning hour the House re sumed, in oommittee of the whole, the consideration of tbe Hennepin canal bill. Mr. Murphy, of Towa, and Mr. Rowell, of Illinois, consulted the morning hour advocating th,e passage of the bill. The House again resolved itself into committee of .the wholtf onthe pension appropriation bill. Mr. Townshend, of Illinois, who had charge of the bill, explained its pro is- ions. ' It appropriated, he: iud. 754,200, or about $15,000,000 more than was carried by law. for the current year. 1 his increase was occasioned by the accelerated work that was being done in the pension office, and for this work the commissioner of pensions and is employees deserved commendation, and by tbe larger number of cases that were now being disposed of . xie then passed on to a discussion of the proposi tion to repeal the limitation of the arrears of pension act, and advocated it as a measure demanded by good faith and patriotism. The question should not be how much the measure Would cost but whether it was just. Mr. Henderson, of Indiana, while concurring with Mr. TownBhend in his general remarks on pension matters, differed from bun when he attributed the increased appropriations :. to the ac celerated work of the pension office. He said the amount of the pending bill was $1,091,800 below the average for tbe ast six years. Passing on to a discus sion of the general subject of pensions, he said that-; there appeared to be a well considered effort on- the part of some gentlemen in the Hc-uso to frighten the country with the idea that the appropriations for pensions were now so tremendous: that a halt should in stantly be called. He attacked Mr. Kandall for having asked the commis sioner of pensions for an estimate of the probable cost to the country of the re peal of the limitation of arrears of pen sions. He said commissioner Black's estimates had been excessive and misl eading and he accused Mr.j Randall of officiousness ia attempting : to forestall a bill not yet passed and create alarm trolHoff the government inj all its in the pubue mind against it. He de- branches. Skilled alike In statesman scribed commissioner Black's letter as ship and the display of patriotism, the untrustworthy? and having ? lie In its fttomach." The commisaioheF, when called to account by the pension oom mittee, had revised his estimates ' but mischief had been done because his first etter had been spread abroad in public prints, in reply to a cfuestion by Mr-. Randall, Mr Henderson said he did not believe the repeal of the limitation of arrears would cost tbe' country one hundred i and fifty millions, : but whatever its ' cost, he advocated it. Mr. . HendersOn then went! ; into; an analysis of the negative vote on the bill to increase the pensions of i soldiera' widows. The' total vote in : the nega tive, he said, was 66, of which 64 were cast by Southern Democrats and two by Northern Democrats alt. Hewitt, 01 New York, and Sir. Bragg; qfWisoon sin. Not one Republican, had voted against the bill. This, he said, was a significant vote, and a great lesson was to be learned from it. In the late cam paign in' the North the Republican party had been oharged with being the party of sectionalismthe party that waved the ensanguined garment, the: man that would ever again make the charge after that simple vote must close hii eyes to the truth. Mr. Tillmah, of South Carolina- Considering that ( the Confederate States pay about one-third of the taxes to the Federal, government for pensions and do not get back three cents of it; considering also that, from the founda tion of the government to the present time. K8 Der month was considered a sufficient pension for widows, . can the gentleman: complain that the South ern members are trying to restrain the necessarily large expenditures for pen sions within the ruie mac prevaueu . .. . i 1 .1 J :i 'j heretofore. Mr. Henderson replied that he ar raitrned no man for his vote, but the Southern members were under t obligations with those from the North to pay the debt to Northern soldiers "I have not read this vote for the pur nose of stirrinc up bad blood," he said: "The time has come when sectional lines should be droppfid and when sixty-four members of that side of the .House said ft!2 was too much to nav a widow, the sectional line was sept up ana ne oioouy a . 1 1 i shirt was waved. Mr. Oates, of Alabama, inquired whether Southern members should not have discretion to vote as their can sciences aictatea. ty ere wey oiavco . .

I concede their constitutional right to vote as they please, but there is more than one wav of observing the constitution and trampling it under foot.; Today the nnnatitntion ib thrown in our face as a shield to cofer an almost: solid vote against an increase of the pension bill. and yet were is hardly a constitution of thn United States to be found in that section. I state here . and now, as my conviction, if these gentlemen respected the constitution as they say they would not have control of this chamber. If thAv renresented the constitution. instead df ballot-box ituffing and shot-guns they wouia no nave control vt uiv ox . a.. a. l . m i il ecutiye of the nation. (Applause on the republican 1 side and groans on the democratic side.) You may groan, gen tlemen, but you yourselves do know and you boast of it, too, that you ! will con trol this government in spite of the con 8titut!on, and I tell you here and now iu this chamber that there are as grave crimes committed under the forms of law and the constitution as there- were when Sumter was fired upon, and for one I protest against sectional control of this country with the constitution absolutely de feated These are my sentiments, and I said the gauntlet was thrown in that vote. In closing I desire to say that I sincerely trust that no gentlemen, espe cially those who were in ranks against me will misinterpret me, for I would rather spend an eternity in hell with! a Confederate than an eternity in heaven with a Northern Copperhead. : (Laugh ter and applause.) 1 i - j , Mr Warner, of Ohio, defended the commissioner of pensions from Mr. Hen derson's attack, and in the course of his re marks said he wanted the pension bureau made non-partifan by turning out men who were in there because they were partisans; whereat Mr. Curtin, of Penn sylvania, ejaculated "If you do not turn partisans out and put other parti sans in, what is the use of ,haying elec tions?" (Applause and laughter ) ; Mr.. Randall; of Pa., said he desired to leave the arena of politics for a mo ment to assume the ground of history and truth. He was unwilling that the 'sun should go down without his ex pressing his recollection on this question. He had much experience' on the appro priation committee and this j was the first time, he had ever seen partisan pol itics and .; sectionalism thrust into a de bate on the pension appropriation bill. He should perhaps have remained silent notwithstanding, but whether intended or not, there might go abroad through ihe'eountry a statement that the demo cratic, party, and more particularly the Southern element of that party, had shown any hostility whatever to the payment of pensions. On the contrary, his experience had shown that the South ern clement had developed a wonderful disposition to pension Union soldiers or the widows of Union soidiers. He placed his experience agatuft the im pression carried by the speech of the gentleman from Iowa, that there was on the Democrat side any hostility to the payment of what was justly due to those who were disabled in the war for the Union. I l. Mr.; Morrison, of Illnois, said that alt the years of the war and ten years thereafter the Republicans had had con- Republican party had made ample pro- vision for the payment of pensions ,to J . . . the soldiers, i Since h is experience he did not recollict the name of a South ern man who had ever failed to vote; to the last dollar what that party had pro vided by law should be paid to the sol dier, 1 1 The discussion was continued by Messrs.

Three of the own ers and managers ofthe McCormick reap er works gave an interview to two dele gates from the strikers yesterday. The delegates conceded that the trouble in ar ranging a settlement had arisen from the interference of outsiders. The strikers to the number of about-1,000 appeared in the vicinity of the works this morn ing and for the first time made a dis play of violence. The foreman of the works, named Ward was stopped while driving to the works land during the talk a revolver wast' drawn, but no shots were fired. He was afterwards permitted to go to the works. Mean time another squad of idle men: had stopped the engineer and 'still another the steam and gas fitters, who were on their way the works, where they have been kept busy since the place closed, keeping the machinery in order. After a short parley the engineer was allowed to proceed but the other man went home. Police officer Rowan, who had been Bent out to the works with a good many other policemen in citizens' clothes, to mix) with the crowd and keep' order, was! accosted by a workman who de manded to know what : he was doing. Some words passed and tbe workman, whose name is Ernest Stoneman was arrested and locked up. , More police were sent to tbe scene but the crowd in a measure dispersed. ; : i Conn'ellsvili.1, Pa., Feb. 25. The socialistic Hungarians caused more trou ble m the coke region this morning. A crowd of them assembled at BrOadford and marched to Summit, on the- Mt. Pleasant branch, forcing every coke drawer from work along their? route. They were nearly all armed and fired numerous shots in order to intimidate the workers. , At Summit and the Other works the coke-drawers fled, through fear of violence from' the! mob, and in some cases left their scrapers in this hot ovens, to jnelt, fearing that if they con tinued work the tipple and other build ings at the works would be destroyed. The strikers demand an advance of ten cents per oven, instead of the ten per cent recently granted.

We were sorry tb see such condemnation of an instrument which is so powerful in the bandit of the weak against the tyranny of the strong. Boycotting, when used properly, 1 as manipulated by the Ivoigbts of JUabor and kindred societies, is not only lawful and right, but is a blessing to the poor wage-worker who "earns his living by the sweat of his brow.". Boycotting is a universal instrument, Eand is U6ed in every vocation of life, fit; is thef life of Ireland and the controlling haftd in the English Parliament.
