Since its occurrence t; e vlngalls-Voor-hees exhibition in the Senate on Tuesday has been the subject of everybody's small talk at the Capitol. In both ends -of the building in every corridor, and at every turn where frienc's and official chanced to meet, the first question put was wether the war was over or whether all was quiet on the Potomac. The oldest Senators, mv-n, whose mem oxies- go bacK to the hh..ing days, can not remember anything like it for acrimo nious abuse and low " unparliamentary language. The Ingails-Voerhees duolo gue stands out pre-eminent. It was the more extraordinary that such a scene should occur'in the United-Stat s Senato, because that body deservedly has the na- mi of being the most polite, dignified, ac eomplishedi and pari iamenUry "body con sidered'as awhole in- the world, and still more astonishing was the break, be cause it was made by two of the most prominent members of that august body JiiVe ry Doa y - regretted ; tlie occurre nee that is, every booyjjwho allows himself to be burdened with any serious sentiment about matters of that kind.' The crimina tions, : recrhmUatiqnfc, and "affluent ex cnange ci personalities snowed sucn a shocking ; lack of digaity, while there was nothing at all to admire in the debate. Mr.; Ingalls rose at times to peaks of bristl ing satire, and Mr. -Voorhees responded from the depths of hi- grim cavernous in dignation, but ther e was no oratory dis played on either side.- The epithets in terchanged such as "liar; infamous liar, asoundrel and 'dirty dog were entire ly unpardonable onth stump but that they . should have been uttered on the floor ofthe United States Senate is unpre- dented. And then the.eatire want of apposite- nes3 of such a debate to any of the living questions ofthe day. Speaking ofthe mat ter somebody rematkad ; "If you will in form me what js the advantage" to the reb ple at large, what is tho statemanship, what is the object, what i the decency of such exhibitions a3 were presented in the the Senate on Tuesday, I will be under everlasting obligations, and so will every other taxpayer in the country. The debate continued for four hours. At its close ; Senator Eustis, of Lsnisaua, said he had heard l- Wasiugton pleasure see -lers congratulated upon having the races, the circus, and . Ingalls Voorhees the same week. They could scarcely be dispointed with the day's , entertainment in the Senate. . Besides listening to ' the above . debate, the Senate h-s this week discussed the Joxesbobo, May, 4, '88 Mb.
