A few days Iater I received a letter from the sen- stor, acknowledging the generous me of his warm friendship. T havesaid this much to show that I was Paddock’s senstorial earcer to »ld him in secaring & foothold among repub- ioan leaders of the pation, and make himself popul:c with the people of the state. Sx years have elapsed; Mr. Pad- dock b3 come home to ask sn en- dorsement of his scnatorial career at the bands of a loglslature made up largely of young men who kaow nothing about hie political history, and precious little about his record es a senacor. Many of theso members have come (0. Nebraska since Pad- dock's election, acd very few know what a weak, vascillating and medi- ocre representative Paddock has been, #5 compsrd with men who represent other states. 1t is for their benefit that T now give my personal observations of his conduct. During the six yesrs of Paddock’s senatorial careor, 1 have vistied the national capital cight or ten i Washimgton.

Barring the historic tact that he wes an Andy Johnson apostate— fu open collision with copperhoad dsm- ocrats—and when elected to the sen- ate wanted it understood that he was » “conserrativerepublican,” and never propored to take part in s republican caucus, I caunot comprehend how a man with his record can lay claim to stalwertism, A man is usually judged by his as- sociates, and Paddock’s most intimate ewmoclates at Washington, snd his monitors and advisors are J.

Epecial Dispateh to The Eie. Wabuinoros, Jenuary 12.—Soon as the journal bad been read, Mr. Buckner moved to dispense with the ‘morning hour, his object being to pro- ceed with the eomsideration of the fun bill, Mr. Weaver, on behalf of the gresn- backers, resisted the motion, but the morniog hour was dispenced with, after a stroggle. committee of the whole on the fund- ing bitl, and purposed to limit the de bate on the pending amendment in ro- lation to rate of intereat to thirty mlu- utes. Thid was also resisted by the oppon- f the funding bill. ‘The debate limited, and the houso then won into committe on the whoie, with M. Govertin the chair. The pending sinendment was that offered by Mr. Wood to make rate of interest 3 per cent. Mr, Wood said that from what in- n he had received since the last under cousideration, his opinion was streagthened thita § per cent. bond cviild be fosced if cougress would repeal the tax on deposits. e believed that the question Ui option woald be ablluiely immaterisl, for | { trol of the bonds in its hands. Mr. Stevenson,.of 11 was op- posed toatiy legilation wleh would take from the ireasury tho option to rodcs: the bond at its pleasure, Mr. Woaver, of Iowa, argued that it way idlo to aay that & 3 poc cant. bond could not be flyatad. Tho bond- holder had altady been paid more than the agaregate of the pr-:ent na. tional debt. He wanted tho low rate of intirest posmsible, but he would prefer to lot the bouds remain aa they are, subject to speedy lijuidation. Ho was opposed to a long tune bond 8t 3 per cent., a8 they were more ex- pensive than to redeem the bonds at the present rates Mr. Cacar Turner opposed a long bond, and the depriving the sovern- ment of its option. He thonght there ehould be coupled with the bil a pro- { itton to fund the debt was in the ia- terest of nationa! banks. M+ Randall sald be roso a: advocate with increzsed confidc plecing of these bonds at 3 with an op‘ion to the_goverum redeem them at any thue aftor ono or two years. Hehida stasement p pared by Mr. Elliott, of the treasury departmenr, in which he fixes the 1 bstwean the market vlue of bonds, st the present ratcs of inter- est, and the 3 parceat. bonda. From the statement thus presented, ho ba- lieves that even inan open market a 3porcent. bond can be_negotiated. Mr. Rundall consumed the timo al- lotted, and by & voto the time was ex- tended 1o an hour. After Mr. Randall had finished_his apoech ho was taken to tark by Mr. Frye, of Maine, which resulted in & running debate, participated in by leadera of both sides The debate having closed, the ques- tion was taken on Mr. Wood's motion to make the rate of interest threo per cent., and it was adopted by a vote of 182092, The greenbackers all vot- | ed for the low rate of interest, al- | though they intended to vote against the whole proposition. Finally, Mr. Sanford offe following proviso to the first which was adopted: Provided, That_before any of tho bonds or notos authorized by th's act aro issued it shall be the duty of the secretary of the treasury to pay bonds acoraing in 1881 with all tho silver dollars of 4124 grains, and all the gold over and above $5,0€0,000, now held in the treasury for redemption | purposes. No quoram voted on the ahove proposition, but the point was not made antil it was too late. Mr. Wood gave notics that ho would call for a vote in ths houso by youa and nay M. Mobllan, of Tenn., offered an amendment. providing for tho taxa- tion of bonds to be iseued under the act, but it was rejected—yeas 67, nays 87 Mr, Randall moved an amendment to strike ont g0 much of the section 23 make the bonds redecmablo in 40 yeara. Also to atrike out the clanze authorizing the issue of troasuy notea, exd to make tho amount of bonds to be ismed $650,000,000. His proposition was to mako {ho debt | & three per cent. bond alone, and nof | isue auy trewsury motes. Ho aleo | offered a proviso givicz notics of the ! cosaation of interest on tho six per cent. bonds to be rofunded Mr. Wood moved that tho comimit- which was esrried, and the house at 4 o'clock adjourned. SENATE, In the course of the morning busi- ness, Mr. Hoar addressed sn 1uquiry to Mr. Edmunds as to the probability distribation of the balan eva award. Mr. Edmunds, not being chairman of the judiciary committee, could cn- | ly express his individual viows, said the committee had devoted con- siderable attention to ths bill, and ho believed would lsbor diligently to bring the bill before the senate for its | action.
