But the usual oourse is sim ply to notify the House the speaker that the resignation has been sent to the governor of the state from which the member comes.

There seems to have been a clash be tween" the independents and republicans yesterday. The republicans were evi dently disappointed in not receiving the support of the independents in the elee tion of doorkeeper. When nominations for assistant doorkeeper were made, a republican remarked: "if the independ ents don't stiok to us this time we will cuss 'em out."

The letter of resig nation of course will appear in the Rer cord tomorrow, and is, an offioial pro mulgation of Mr. Reid's intentions. It is a souroe of general regret that there should exist any cause to prompt this action. I suppose the governor ; will oall an election at onoe, as the district can yet have a representative for the last thirty days of the session. Mr. Mr. Reid s successor would of course draw pvv from Deoember 31, 1886. The Hause has started out with a vim. : At the present rate the seoond session of the, 4.9th congress will be memorable for its dispatch of business. In the Senate Mr. Mitohell, republican,: reported a bill to grant Mrs. John A. Logan a pension of $2,000 a year, to whioh; Senator C oke, of Texas, very properly objte'ed. It is a bad pre cedent, and an imposition op ra the tax-piyersof this country. Besides it is creating a privileged class of pen sioners, contrary to the spirit of our it stitutions, and an unjust burden upon the toiling masses. The republicans are very uneasy for fear that a minority of their party wi 1 ad aaaee a revenue bill. Mr. Reid, of Maine, is fighting this, feeling strenu ously. Many republicans say that they can't stand still and see the surplus piling up in the treasury aad the coun try suffering from so much currency being withdrawn from circulation. I am inclined to believe that if ne action is taken for relief that the President will call an extra session on the 4th of Mar oh. The democrats would coon a .a w n m a, remeay uii evu ii sxxr. i&andau s mi nority would eome to their aid-.
