A Ursr ro SRoreTany Dtarye.—Whille 20 Tmuch pressure 13 betng brought to bear upon the Secretary of State for appointments tn the diplomatic service, and gentlemen from Onio have been far from backward in coming forward to sccure thelr share of these, a refereace to the succeseful moral suasion of Joba Qalucy Acams in a similar ease when he was Secretary of State, scems speclally opportune. He said to au applicant: “In Europe, diplomatic offices at- for @ condition of life, acareer to which a man Might devote himself enttrely and without look. ing farther. But in the practice under our go ment, foubded upon the nature of our instita_ bs, it 15 merely an incident in the lite of a steteman—a preparation for sometuing else, essentially transient, and offering in Itself no prospects worthy of honorable ambition.” “He said he was satisfied,” writes Mr. Adams tn hts diary of this applicant, “from the view I had igs hira of the subject that ft would not bs for his interest to obtain the appointment which he had destrea, and that he should con- clude upon another course, and go and settle in ihe state-of Ohio.” It appears the adove that this great state was then higher in the scale than now, when it seems led by many simply as a good one to emigrate froza, whe Adams’ time, settling there was prefs toa foreign mission. THE SENATE STUBBORN. No Yielding as Yet on Either Side. ‘The Vice President laid before the Senate the unfinished bustuess—tke resolution for the election of the Senate officers. Mr. McPherson inquired why the Vice Pres- Ident bad not, In compitance with the rules, called for the presentation of petitions and memorials, The Vice President replied that this belng an executive cession of tlw Senate, there Was no Tic ritng hour. Mr. Ferry sustained the position of tho chatr, declasi:g toat the rule to which the Senator referred was applicable only to @ legislative session of the Senate. ‘Mr. McPherson then offered, as_bis right un- der Ue rule, a petition from certatn citizens of the state of New Jersey respecting the cas2 of one Michael Boyton, who was alleged to be confined in an English Guageon arbitrarily and unjustly, and asked that It be referred to the committee on foreign relations. There being no objection, the petition was d, read and referred as Indicated. A tolion, made by Mr. Peddleton, to go Into uttve session having been rejected—yea3 31—Mr. Bayard took the floor. He |, be sald, that there was a justification for the thirty-eight democratic Senators ta aining the attitude before the the coun- try which they had maintained for the past ten days. He wished to try the justice of their position by the light of law and reason, so that when they were called into that court of last appeal—the bar of pubile opinton—they should be willing to submit tot the case which they Were making now. When the Senate hud met at the beginning of the session, it had found {tse f under the contro}, numerically, of tne cemocrats. They had claimed that it was their duiy to reorganize the committees. Their cf- forts had been met by dilatory motions on the other side, and they had submitted to thos motions. When at length the Senate liad ililed UD Uiere were sull on this floor titrty-nine avoved friends apd supporters of the demo- cratic standard-bearer and of tbe principles and party which that standard-bearer repre- sented. The status of the vote had not di closed itself until the thirty-seven avowed re- publican Senators had brought in a resolution assuming that they held a majority. A great amount of mystery hdd been ‘allowed to e velop the vote of one Senater; and that my. tery had remained until the Senator had co:ne forward and thrown the organization of tae committees suddenly Into the hands of tae President, Who was not a member of the S2n ate. The democrats had ylelded withous a dil- atory wotton the control of the comralitees to tne Tepublicans; but the question now was whether It was thelr duty, in the face of ali the facts, as promupliy, a3’ unquestionadly to submit to the present motion to do sometalug for which the only justification Was found tn the dcctrine, that it was the will of the majority, He dwelt at some length upon the rights eon: ferred upon minorities by the constitution the iaws made in accordance withit.

The talk is that the two latter Sens ators are close to Me Administration, and tr was expected of them, if the Prestdent desired a break in the present deadlock, to secura the confirmation of his nominations, ther would be willing to abide some plan to break It. Now, it 4s claimed they have, by their speeches, served notice that the republican Mune will not be broken, and If the President desires to e: execttive infiuence to break It, 1t would be rected to the democratic side. “Another theory is that they have taken thls ground In beaalt of the caucus program in accordance witn tie Meas of the President, after consultation with 1.

Colored Virginia Republicans at the White House. TALK WITH THE PRESIDENT ON YVMGINIA POLITICS. Ex-Senator Lewis, of Virginia, was at tho White Houee to-day with a delegation of col- ored repubiicans of that state. They saw the President and had an anterview with him re- lating to the policy of the republican party of Virginia. 1% was urged upon the President that he encourage the liberal movem: a3 it had been developed of late, especially as re- garded the position of Senator Mahone and What had grown cutof it in thestate. Tne President replied that he was fuliy ia sym- pathy with that movement, and will do ail in bis power to foster it. He thought it the pro- Per policy for the republicans to pursue, that tThcy should coalesce with the disaffected ments of the democratic party whenever such action Was notin conflict with their faterests. Such a course, he thought, would conduce to building ay the strength of the party. Hedid ot, he sald, emviorse Lue position assumed by the ultra-republicans in Virginia, who opposed eny coalition with Senator Mahone and his followers, and were strong in advocating thit he showd recCive no support or counteaance from ut “siraight-out” republicans.

We find in a Conkling organ an explanation of what Is meant by the phrase “Senatorial Courtesy.” Ifa President wishes to make an appointment to any Federal ofiice within the State the Senator represents, itis Senatorial Courtesy for him to consult the Senators b: ire sending in the nomination, If the Sen- ators object tothe nomination tt 1s Senatorial Courtesy for the President;to withboid 1), and substitute a less objectional name. If, afer consultation; and objeciton by u: ors he persists in sending to the nomi; lon, it ts ‘Sebatorial Courtesy” for the Senators to cliv together and defeat the nomtnation. In plain Words “Senatorial Courtesy” has come to tea that the President must make no nom{nation thal dees not tirst have the approval of Senators of the State where the office ts to filed.

PROHIRITORY LEGisLATION.—In_ the lower house of the Pennsylvania legislature last night the bill proposing an amendment to the constitution proaibiting the manufacture and sale of intoxicating liquors in the state was passed finally by a vote of 109 to 59, after an amendment prohibiting the manufacture and Sale of Mquors for mechanical, medicinal and SclenUfte purposes had been voted down by a vote of 117 nays to 49 yeas. There is no doubt that the senate will ralify the actlonof the house. If the amendment should be made a part of the constitution it would deprive the State of a revenue of about $500,000 a year.
