Southern Senators Provoke Logan to a Towering Rage, In Which He Tears His Hair, and Also the King's English, A Lively Dialogue Between Senatcrs Voorhees and #Meiione SENATE. Spoctal Dispaich to Tho Bes. Wasmmorow, April 1—It was moved that the serate proceed to the consideration of executive busiuees, and that being lost, Lamar arose to make aspeech. He reviewed the sit- uatlon in the senate and arraigned the republicans for the obstruction of public busine Something elso should rule the senate than the sordid detormination of the constitutional majority. The minority h-d the pow- rto reslst oppression and mean to ise it. Republicwns darel not give . for their desire to change the organization of the senate. It was not in for:herance of cvil service prin ciples, nor in reward £r gallant ser- vice in the confederato rmy. tsunted the oppositi m to divaige the true resson. Mr. Lamar gave way for the recitatlon of the executive communication, and Mr. Pendleton Interpcasd another motion that the senate go into executive session. This motion was aleo loat. The republican party contained elemer ts in sympathy with southern ideas, but they could never gain a footing there by gifta of federal spoils. Senator Lamar here closed his speech prematurely, on ac- count of sheer exhaustion, and stated that he was unable to make further reply at present The same line of debate adopted by Mr. Hoar was taken up by his col- league, Mr. Daves, who recalled the history of & Rorthern capitalist who, relying on the statement that he had only to know the people of the south to love thew, weut to Mississippi to make » home and business for his fam- ily. He refused to abandon sny of hus political principles. His factories were burned, he had to put iron shut ters on his buildings to preserve his workmen while they slept, and now he had been compelled to sbsndon the field. Senator George pronounced the whole story an unfounded myth. The senator from Massackusetcs might have been so informed, but his refusal to give dates cast a shadow of sus- Piniun. He defied the senator or his [aformant to give proof of the charge. He warned all northerners against placing credence in the stories of life in Mississippi. There was little or no troth in them. Mr. Dawes informed the senator that he held in his hand the names and date of the incidents referred to by him, and could give them to him if he th ught best. Mer. Gsorge thought he had a_right to » .o« the evidence in the case, and sh.uld totally disbelieve it as long as the evidence was withheld. Mr. Bill made a long speech, in the couzse of which he regretted that the nate had again beun subjected to taking up these southern outrages, which were generally flse. Mr. Logan reminded eim of General Sheridan’s report, containing the | names of 2,000 people murdered in view between the sena and the president in regard to the New York nomipacions. It denies that Garfield ever mentloned to Conkling or James Platt an intention to nominate Rob- ertaon - for ‘the collectorship of New York, aud says they had no idea of such ncmination, uatil the nomination was seut to the senate, the president never having even foreshadowed its poseibility to them. Adjournment of the senate was effocted yesteriay autil Monday, to accommodate Vice-President Arthur, who started for New York last night. Business of importance calls him to New York, but he will return in time for the opening setsion Monday. The president haa decided to appoint Oaptain Kenny, of Ohio, United States marshal of the Distrist of Columbis, in place of Frederick Doaglas.

Mr. Logan tried to point out the : forence between kuklux and militia, | and became greatly excited, as did also Senator Butler, in attempting to reply. Each taunted the other with trying to awe his opponent with bra- vado, and neither appeared to be greatly scared. Mr. Logan, in proceeding, r an incident of a republican boy in Florida who was taken from his horse and his mane and tail were cut off, This stirred up Senator Farley to ask whether it was the boy or horse that loat his mane and tail. This led Senstor Hill to ask if it was not time this nonsense stopp-d.

When ength was somewhat spent, Mesers. Beck and Voorhees occupied some time in having read a journal and newspaper article bearing upon the present ques- tion. An editorial from The Phila- delphia_Telegram was insorporated by Mr. Voorhees as his own speech, for the sake of having it read. It re- ferred to Mahone as a democratic renegade, a repuiationtst snd one en- gaged in a bargain with the republi- cans. Mr. Mahone asked him if these personalities were part of his speech. Mr. Voorhees at first said he dis- clalmed thr. speech, because he did not care to creste any personal feeling, but Mr. Mahone pressed him so_that he finally replied, “Well, th-n, I do; I endorse every word of it—demo. cratic renegade, bargainer,—all.” “Then,” replied Mr Mahone “I characterize the statements such as no brave or honorable man would make. Take that and wear it.” This ended the discussion,and at 7:15p m. the senate adjourned until 12 m. Monday. CAPITAL NOTES, Spectal Dispatches o The Bee.
