An Exciting Debate Yesterday After- noon. MR. KENNEDY'S ATTACK ON SPEAKER CARLISLE AND MR. CRISP—HI8 REMARKS HISSED BY THE DEMOCRATS—MR. CRISP'S REPLY. Mr. Kennedy, a member of the House from Ohio, made a very bitter attack upon Speaker Carlisle and Mr. Crisp in the House yesterday, his speech being upon the “southern outrage” or contested-election question. Referring to Speaker Carlisle he said: “When 4,500 Kentac- kians stood at the door of this House on a con- tested-election case what did the Speaker of this House, who was the contestee, do? He remained as silent as the Sphinx, and the com- mittee of this House, headed by Charles F. Crisp, of Georgia, reported back and denied the contestant the right to a hearing on this Mr. Bland made a point of order and tried to keep him from proceeding, but he went on as follows: “I say that only once before in the history of our government there been such a case as that. I will not mention any names, but I will say that the press of my state, Ohio, secular and religious, independent, democratic, and republican, demanded that that case should be heard. Not only republicans, but democrats, state officials and others, demanded that that case should be heard ——" THE ATTACK ON TRE SPEAKER.” Here he was interrupted again, but he per- sisted, saying: “I refer again to the case which I have just mentioned. That gentleman will go into private condemned by his politial asso- ciates and despised ar his political enemies, without society save that only which hi gotten wealth can purchase, too low for pity and beneath contempt. [Hisses on the demo- cratic side.) I reer now to a case in this House, and I ask is it any wonder that the contestee in that case which was reported upon this floor on the 20th of January last, should, after that report was made, be covered with humiliation and shame? Was it any wonder that it required the exhilarating and stimulating influences of Washington a the balmier breezes of Old Point Comfort to restore him to his mental and moral equilibrium? Mr. Chairman, I leave the question to him, to the country, and to the people of Kentucky. [Hisses on the democratic ide.) The gentleman from Georgia (Mr. Crisp) asks whether I have ever BEEN IN GEORGIA. I desire to say to him that in 1863 and 1864, if he had not been moving so swiftly to the south, he might have made my acquaintance in Geor- ia. [Hisses and jeers on the democratic side.] presume, sir, that my standing in Georgia will not be ashigh as that of the gentleman from Georgia— Mr. McMillin—Or anywhere else. Mr. Kennedy—(continuing)—Because he wore the confederate gray and I wore the Union blue in that great_contest. I have no e to compare records with the gentleman from Georgia, but I believe that in the estima- tion of every loyal man in this land my record is as high above his in that great contest as the angels of light are above the angels of dark- ness. [Derisive laughter and jeers on the dem- ocratic side.) When he had concluded his remarks Mr, Peel asked unanimous consent that 30 minates be allowed the opposition to reply. Mr. Owens, of Indiana, objected, but it brought such a storm about his ears he was oe to withdraw it, and Mr. Crisp was recog- nize ‘MR. CRISP’S REPLY. Mr. Crisp said he would expose to the House the willful and deliberate inaccuracies of Mr. Kennedy. He was careful to state that he cast no odium upon Mr. Kennedy’s record as a sol- dier. He then reviewed the utterances of Mr. Kennedy last summer charging that Mr. Cri had come to Congress by suppressing the al- most entire vote of his district, and Mr. Ken- nedy’s strictures upon Mr. Crisp’s appointment to the chairmanship of the committee on elec- tions which reported the Carlisle-Thoebe con- test. Mr. Crisp described the proceedings of the House by which the elections committee was elected, and said the criticisms of Mr, Kennedy, of Ohio, did not proceed from ignorance, but was a case of malicious defamation against the Speaker of the Honse. “I use that expression in its fullest definition!” he added. Mr. Crisp then alluded to Mr. Kennedy's record while lieutenant-governor of Ohio and president of the Ohio senate, in declaring that seventeen senators out of thirty-seven could adopt a report unseating¢our democrats and seating four re- publicans. Fatal Result of a Fall. COLE DIED OF HIS INJUIES THIS MORNING. Beverly F, Cole, who fell down the stairs in the Interior department building yesterday while sufferlng from an epiplectic fit, as stated in yesterday's Star, died at 1 o'clock this morning. He never recovered consciouness, having in his fall struck on his head on the iron steps, fracturing his skull.

Dinner was served at 7 o'clock, and shortly after that Gen. Harrison and Mr. McKee took a brisk walk of about two miles. Cards were re- ceived from the White House, the President and Mrs. Cleveland thus paying their respects, and it was arranged that General and Mrs, Har- rison would call at the White House to-day. A number of callers were received after 7:30, the last of them leaving about 10:30.

It is thongbt that the decorations will be considered finer than on any previous occasion, and from what is de- veloped of the plan at it, the members of the committee believe that this part of the in- augural preparations will be a success.

This room is the one occupied by the commissioner of pensions and the walls are covered by the decorator with garnet plush. A kind of a fringe of old gold plush extends around the room, while the over the doors and windows are of old gold and blue plush. The furniture, which is very rich, corresponds in color with the wall decorations, The entire decoration is handsome, and when the room is brilliantly lighted the effect will be striking and om room adjoining on the west will be set apart for the use of the ladies accompanying the President.

SOME INTERESTING REMINISCENCES. To the Editor of Tax Evexrxe Stan: You asked me to write something about Han- nibal Hamlin’s early life, which I told you I could not well do without reference to my own; so the reader will, [have no doubt, make al- lowance for any apparent egotism. Before me is a bound volume of the Jeffersonian, the first number of which bears the date, “Paris, Maine, Tuesday, May 4, 1830,” with what I remember was then, to me. a most important announce- ——. ‘Printed and published by Hamlin and ing. That was the style of the partnership of two lads—I am not going to tell you how old, but I am sure thatone of them was several years “under age,” while the other was not imuch older, One was named after the famous war- rior who crossed the Alps with his army some years ago, aud the other, as my beloved friend, Judge MacArthur, would tell you, was named specially for one of Shakespeare's characters, who was assured that there are more things in heaven and earth than are dreamed of in his philosophy. But their names are of little mo- ment compared with the immense responsibil- ity now devolving on them, to keep the great ublic informed by a weekly circulation of five undred copies of their Papet, of what was go- j ing on throughout the world, ’ The senior part- ner was a “‘city boy,” that is, he was born, I believe, and grew to manhood on “Paris Hill,” the capital of Oxford county, and a noted place of not less, probably, than one or two hun- dred inhabitants, while the junior sprung from the ground, or we may better say from a rough farm near the foot of “Streaked mountain,” 3 miles ‘in the country” and same town. Hannibal's family ranked among the aristocracy of “the city,” his father being a fine old physician, as I remember him, of the ; but in those days we did not have any aristocracy in the country, where they wore coarse clothes and | leveled forests for burnt land, on which to | raise melons for the “city” boys to “hook” (no | personal allusion) on Sundays when the folks were at church, Years before this newspaper enterprise I used often to mect Hi among the boys when I went to “the mean “Paris Hill”), and I hardly nee: that I remember him as a bright, wide-awake lad, ever in the Jead and full of exnberant fun, I do not think he wore a “swullow-tail” coat at that time, and maybe not any overcoat, because I know he was warm-hearted, as he has been ever since, toward his friends. His father owned a farm below the hill, but I do not think Hanni- bal did much work on it, although I saw him sometimes driving the cows to and from pas- ture. He went to Hebron acedemy at one period, and T have a nice poem he wrote about it, as his alma mater, not many years ago. he, fortunately, never having been to college. Premising that I went into the office lof the Jefersonian with a view to pur- chasing the establishment after learning the trade, when I had worked only about one year ag the youngest apprentice, Hannibal came to |me one day, saying. to my surprise, that, in connection with the foreman of the office, he | sick of his bargain, and he asked me if I would j take the foreman’s place. Lat once assented, and the foreman was let off on agreeing to work | for us without pay two weeks, which he did, not, however, in the best of temper, and the junior partner immediately thereafter’ jumped trom “printer's devil” to foreman of the office, The senior went to “the case,” and we had one apprentice, Henry Carter, who afterward stud- ied law, was some years editor of the Portland Advertiser," and is now on the judicial bench’ at Haverhill, Massa position he has ably held for many years, Our senior took to the types like ducks to water, and he was equally soon at home at an old Ramage or Franklin press, on which we printed our paper, striking off one side, or two pages, at a double pull—printing the first and fourth ages first, and afterward the second and third. ve inked the forms with puff-balls, one of us applying the ink and the other handling the sheets and pulling at the press. I think it took us about two hours—possibly only one hour— to print one side of our large issue. Now, Ihave said that my partner was quick at the trade, and he has been quick and Jucky in his achievements ever since. You might say, confidentially, that one day when we were working at’ the press, a callow country boy came in, full of wonder and admiration ‘at be- holding the mysteries of the printing office, wishing to learn the trade, end that he was told (uot by the junior) that a prerequisite was to eat a certain quantity of printer's ink, which he proceeded to do, when the joke was stopped. That noe foes has since become quite dis- tinguished, being an ingenious inventor and mechanic, and is still vig: There seems to have been something about the Je rather conducive to longevity, if no Now, Ihave runonat such a rate that lam afraid you will not find room for a little anec- dote, which I will give you from the aforsaid old volume, Somebody came to the office and related it, and Hannibal was so pleased with it that, without stopping to write it out, he went to the case and set itup, Here it is: Two Negroes being out ona hanting excursion y cidentall e where stowed sway bee teorsbe heneath tes rene, cpeetally stor away her ‘bh the roots where there wass vacuum.
