EDMUNDS, From Gur Own Correspondent. Wasutnatoy, D, C., Oet. 27.—Judge David Davis’ method of putting the vote in the Senate has furnished Senator Bayard an op- portunity for a very clever witticism at the expense of Senator Edmunds, David Davis, atter the old manner in town meetings, In putting a vote, says, “Those who are In fa- vor willsay aye; contrary-minded no.” Sena- tor Bayard, after having heard this unacens- tomed way of putting questions In the Sen- ate for n few times, dryly remarked tow Senator who sat near him, “Mr. Edmunds will doubtiess be always found in the lst of negutives on any proposition of that sort.” ‘The contrary-miudedness of Senator Ed- munds hag glyen all the Democrats a great deal of trouble, and materially helped to oust the Chevalier Bayard from his position as President of the Senate, and possible President of the United States, alter an in- cumbency of n few hours, THE BAYARD FIASCO is a pretty good Illustration of the blunder- ing management of the Democrats in the Senate, It would -have been doubtless easy for them to have chosen David Davis pre- siding officer of the Senate ns a Democrat, Moe was elected as n Democrat. Ie has acted with the Domocrats on most..of the: lupor- tant votes since the Senate was close, and he elaimed, in onc of his public utterances at the Inst session, to be under obligations, in great measure, to respect the wishes of his Domocratic constituents. Moreover, the Domocracy tendered him at the last session the caucus nomination of the very important position of Chairman of the Judiciary Coin- nilttee, a place which he declined. A good many Democrats were in favor of se- lecting David Davis for the Presidency of the Sennte at this session, but Bayard and Als friends opposed it. BAYARD WAS AMBITIOUS for tha place. Another Democratic Pres\- dential Convention is coming, and the man who ‘stood next to the Presidency,” accord- Ing tomany notions of polities, might ulti- miately cote Into the possession of It. Har- ris, of Tennessce, to be sure, was the caucus nominee of the Democrats for President of tho Senate at the last session. Usage would have required that he should have continued to reccive the honor of that nomination, espe- clally in view of the fact*that, beyond com- parison, he Is the best presiding officer on the Democratic site In the Senate, But the ambition of the Delaware statesman Inter- posed itself, and this plan was defeated. And Davie Davis, thanks to Republican votes, {3 the President of ‘the Senate, and the Demo-~ terats look upon lim datly as a monument to thelr folly. : DEMOCRATS WEAK IN THE SENATE: The Domocrats are greatly Incking in parliamentary skill In tho Senate at present, ‘Thoir best men ure gone, ‘Thurman, that towar of strength as a debater, the only pos- sible rival for Edinunds, has left the Senate, together with some of the kecnest minds In that party, and the Republicans have the Democrats at a very grent disadvantage whenover any question involving a great debate arises, or whenever recourse Is ueces- Sut pt a knowledge of parliamentary pro- edure, MISSING REPUBLICAN FACES, Tho sume ts not true as to the House.

A Mttle strip of what pretended to be an awning was pliced above his head, but it was entirely Snsut fielent to protect him from the sun, the effect, offects of which he greatly felt, ‘The orator had found tis way some distance through the burning sand ‘and dust on foot from tis hotel to the grand stand prior to the oratlon, tnd, atterwards, the Virglula Committee had male no provision whatever to take hlu to what they called his hotel. He started back on foot, When some of the aides on the stall of Gov, Long, of Muassachtisetts, saw the tis. hap, and corrected the terrible blunder of the Virginia Conunittee by hastening ‘to the headquarters of Gov.

THE RESOLUTIONS adopted were as follows; ‘Tho Conyress of Germun Agriculturists con: aiders the American ear par toy in breadstutts and mest a great duugor to the future exiatonve of German grain-production and cattle-breed- ing, and prays the Imposial Government to take such measures as ure culvulated to ward off these destructive intivences, :Tho Fangroteot German Agrioutturists, with 8 viow to obtaining 4 inure offeutive protection agulnst the two countriga wpich partigularly im- poril German agriculture, bas take into con- Gideration the «qucsuon of xovernmental, or rather international, troaties for the formation of @ custoins convention.
