Mr. Cameron thought no good could
come of this matter, and bo opposed tbe
Sonata taking auy part in tbis useless pa
geant, lie did not want any bail or any
dance in these halls. When Jefferson
wss inaugurated be got nn jlus horse, rode
ap to the capitol, hi tched his home to a
nuke and walked into tbe Benate cham
ber and took tbe oath, and then went
homeagMin.
Mr. Kye asked if there was anything to
prevent General Grant from doing tbe
same thing if be could find the stake.
Laughter.
Mr. Cameron was wilting to pay bis pro
portion of ball expenses; supposed it
would cost them 930 a piece ; he did not
mind tli is, but be did not want any of it
in the Capitol. Four years ago we were
disgraced in this chamber, in the eyes of
tbe world, and the foreign ministers in
sulted, and although he had no fear of a
inpMhiuii of that scene, he thought ft ww
kattar to avoid all these ceremonies. The
next tbinar we might hafig a" President who
WoaM eame up here and demand to have
mf nau in fcu pn"i. -
Mr. Trumbull thought it exceedingly
jnapinnpfhiW to bald a ball In this build
kef. It was aaid that there would be no
whether to have a ball, but

resolution was essentially hip in itself,
and would set a bed precedent. People
would want to dance at other time than
the inauguration, and there would be no
end to tbe applications that would be' made
for the uae or tbe Capitol tor a uance.
Mr. Patterson, or New Hampshire, ke
lieved it would offend tin prejudices of a
large portion of the American people to
fire up this building to sneh n purpose.
H would sooner danee in n tent.
Mr. Fessenden- Can't get one big
enough.
Mr. Patterson Well. then, let them
danee under the tent of Heaven.
Mr. Hendricks asked whether the Capi
tol had ever before been used for a danee
honse t
Mr. Nye was sorry that tke religions
prejudices of the Senator from New Hamp
shire had been aroused, but they had
scriptural authority for dancing. There
bad been dancing before the ark, dancing
alter coming out of the Red sea, and va
rious other times when dancing was per
mitted.
Mr. Doolittle asked it there liad ever
been dancing panuaut to act oi Congress T
Laughter. j j-
Mr. Patterson, of New Hampshire, ask
ed if it would not be proper 10 bare an
amendment providing for a show in con
iiection with the other ceremonies ; tke
lllack Crook for instance ?
Mr. Nye There have been many worse
shows here than the Black Crook.
Mr. Doolittle asked if the Senator did
not know that a largo proportion of the

palian, and by inclination a jwemoaisf,
rrr, at laughter. I but desnite all this, and
and old as he waa, , ke felt like dancing
himself. Laughter,! He imagined that
i he crrcat trouble with Ins friend (Mr
Doolitil. ) was that tbe dance was for Geu
firdiit. (Iinarhter.i
Mr. Cameron thought it would be mueb
hotter for all concerned to have the ball
umawhn else. Xo lionors wcit! to be
had here, it is said, and this would make
it very dull ; for a dry dance is no dance
at all. Laoghter.l
Mr. Ooukling remarked tbat undoobt
edly a large part of tbe American people
would regard the giving up or mis upi
tol to a ball as most inappropriate. Tin
ball would be held, of couns whether 1:
waa held here or not. and General Grant
could certainly be inaugurated in pnnu
an of the constitution and laws, even if
no ball was held.
Mr. Fessenden could see no harm at
all in letting the parties have the Capitol.
His moral and religious sensibilities niigln
be very obtuse, but he could see no dan
ecr in It. and those who thought the Cap
itol would bo desecrated could stay a ways

slmost simultaneously, was upon the un

with extreme rapidity, instantly prostra

The inhabitants were unable to crawl to
the church doors, and those vast churches,
which are characteristic of all South Amer-
can cities from tbe largest to the smallest,
descended in ruins around them. Ten

killed in the churches alone.
The churches of La Trinidad at Aha
Gracia. more than one hundred and fifty
feet in height, with naves supported by
pillars ol twelve and fifteen feet in diame

more than a man's height. In the bar
racks of a regiment of soldiers which bad
just drawn np under arms, ready to form
part of a procession that was to take place
alter divine services, scarcely a man of
