Itf tlio United Slato's S6ntito on FrI
day Inst, tho poinpons and arrogant
'Sumner received from tho mouth of
Lyman Trumbull of Illinois so sovero
'una so inoritcd n rchuko for Jiis "ns
BUiiititlon" his "mis-statements," nnd
Ids 'impudence" that wcro ho otlier
llian ho 13 wo should look fur a change
lit liU manners. Mr. Trumbull In his
'remarks, which wero blttorly stinging1
and sarcastic, showed up In nil its mean
tie and pettiness, tho opposition with
which Sumner had invariably met tho
measures and tho men who favored tho
admission of Virginia. Sumner had
charged that a loyal delegation from
Jhat Stato had been denied a hearing at
tho door of tho Committee room, of
which Commitleo Mr. Trumbull was n
member, and although this had been
authoritatively denled.yet had Sumner
iaken no notice of tho denial. Said Mr.
Trumbull "can Impudence go furth
er?" Sumner for onco was stung out of
his ordinary composure, and squirmed
and wriggled In his chair. Mr. Trum
bull seeing this proceeded, "Oh, sir, I
"havo not done with tho Senator from
Massachusetts. I shall tear away all
theso Imputations and strip from him
all his assumed infallibility and super
iority In tlds body:" Mr. Trumbull fur-i
thcrsaid,"Didany oneever know him
(Sumner) to step down from the lofty1
position of effrontery he has assumed."
And yet again "if tho Senator's assur
ance and effrontery was such that ho
conld not resist his inclination to assail
others, ho must gird his armor about
ldm lot it bo stripped off and cxposo
him to tho American people, as an im
practicable obstacle in tho way of legis
lation." Tho pith of tlio whole matter lies In
'tho last few words. That Sumner Is "an
impracticable obstacle," no ono doubts,
and tho wonder is, that the really pow
erful and able mon In the Senate should
havo allowed such n wordy, empty,
vain and weak nn extremist to havo
attained and maintained such eminence
in their body. "Wo do earnestly hopo
that this speech of Mr. Trumbull's may
bo tho fore-runner of others to tho samo
effect, which may Anally pierce tho
vanity-thickened hido of the Massa
chusetts man, and put an end to his in
tolerable utterances, displaying as thoy
do, in ennal parts, egotism, impudenco
and intolerance
Virginia and her Persecutors,
Tho bill to admit Virginia without
..restrictions, which passed the Houso of
Representatives, a few. days since, was
arrested in tiiQ Senate and saddled with
sundry amendments, .offered, by Drako
of Missouri, allko ungenerous and un
just. Heretofore tho charge of theso mal
contents has been that .tho Stato, was,'
not, "loyal," but.now that sho has ful
filled all tiio demands, which havo been
mado upon her,shoyet is denied froo admission.-
Tho difficulty lies, not in tho
Stato or the people thereof, but lu tho
unreasonable and lrrcconclblo extrem
ists pX Congress, who prefer to sco tho
Union dismembered rather than abate
quo iota, of their ; selfish and unjust re
quirements. The Republican party do
.sired tho admission of the State, but tho
tfew headstrong and vindictive men,
who havo acquired a certain lullucnco'
in Cougress, withstand tho voico of tho
people, to carry out their own mali
cious policy, and admit the Stato only
under galling requirements., And so
.matters will bo, as long as ono-ldead
men liko Sumner, and Drake aro per
mitted by bluster and much talking, to
ovorruio tho opinions of Senators of
ability nnd of broad and comprehensive
views.
Sr. Schocppc.
Wo notico that strenuous efforts aro
being mado toldentlfy Dr. Paul Schoep

the murder pf Miss Steinecke.with tho
Individual who robbed a Count Blan
kensec, In Berlin, some years ago.
' Whether ho bo tho samo person or not,

Dr. Schoeppo is on trial for murder, uot
robbery, and tho only effect thin Inves

mlml unfavorably to his interest. It
certainly cannot old him Inhlsstrugglo
for life, to stagger under tho additional

Tub following, from tho Now York
Times, is sound logic and will meet
with tho approval of tho people. Tho
question of Taxes if submitted to them
would bo decided promptly nnd uccls.

Congressional Courtesies,
Tho debato on tho- Virginia bill lias
led to somo sharp Interchanges of opln.
ion between certain Republican mem
bers of tho House. Ucsldotho lashing
which Sumner received from Trumbull,
mention of which Is mado clsowhcro,

Mr. Bingham, hoped that tho llouso
would concur in tho Senate amendment.
His chief purposo was to stato to gen

Mr. Butler, of Massachusetts, which
sidooftho houso is that (Laughter.)
Mr. Bincliam. (Indicrnantlv). Tho
gentleman is very wlso wlso beyond
his years. Ho cannot read mo out of
tho party with which I am associated,
nor can ho blot out' my record. Vul

(Laughter and much. excitement on
tho floor.)
Mr. Butler of Massachusetts, took tho
lloor, and tbo interest in tho discussion
seemed to bo on tho Increase. Ho said
that ho would begin whero tho gentle
man from Ohio had loft off, not with a
mis-quotation, but simply to-say that
ho had never threatened to read tho
gentleman out of tho Republican party.
Nobody could do that but himself.
Whether ho had dono that In passing
the Virginia bill throueh tho Houso bv
a snap judgment and with tho aid of
his Democratic alliea.thocouutrv would

nave an ovation when ho went to Vir

some hint of that kind in tho papers.

man whom ail their papers announced
as tho murderer of Mrs. Surratt. Ex
citement. What a sight 1 tho lion and
no, not tho lamb, but another animal.
JLiaugmcr.j
Ho referred to tho eulogy passed by
tho e-cntleman from Ohio on tho Vir
ginia constitution, and said that it was
not tnu work or Virginia statesmen, out
of carpet-baggers and scallawogs nnd
negroes irom tlio ileitis, no regaTticu
tho condition or tho mil as a notico to
Virginia and all tho country that if sho
did not maintain, in spirit and in truth
the spirit of tho reconstruction acts,
Congress held and claimed, and with
tho help of God and of tho loyal pcoplo
of tho country would oxerciso tho pow
er to place her hack again whero sho
had been. Ho did not know what new
light tho gentlemen from Ohio had got
which induced him to support tho Sen
ate bill, which was substantially tho
bill reported by tho Reconstruction
Committee.
Mr. Farnsworth said ho understood
very well tho allusion mado by Mr.
Butler to tho acting chairman of tho
Reconstruction Committee, nnd ho had
a word to say on that subject. Ho
would not allow himself to bo instruc
ted in Renubllcanism bv the contlcman
from Massachusetts. He had been a
Republican for twenty-flvo years, when
tho gentleman from Massachusetts was
chasinc fuoritlvo slavcsall over tho State.

tho Democratic side. Ho had been
doing all he could nt the Chicago Con

Laughter. Ho had voted for tho Re
Dubllcan oartv In 18G0. when tho gen
tleman from Massachusetts was voting
tor Breckenrldgo, of .Kentucky. Ho
know that gentleman's facilities for get
ting on tho other sido when his allies
deserted him and went over, and ho
know-that his conviction and conver
sion was so sudden that it shamed that
of St. Paul. ILaugnter.j
Tho lightning that blazed around him
that focal blnzo that illuminated his
understanding shamed Into darkness
tho lieht that shono around St. Paul:
but ho knew that tho gentleman waa
somewhat like Peter when ho had de
serted his Master. His desertion was
so recent that he was obliged to curse
and swear to makoeoplo believo that
ins conversion was genuine LLiaugn
tor. So tho gentleman from Massa
chusetts was obliged to bo exceedingly
radical In order to make people believo
that his conversion wa3 genuine.
Laughter. Ho understood that tho
gentleman's attack was on the gentle
man from Ohio, (Mr. Bingham), but ho
would probably havo named him, too,
only ho know that he (Mr. Farnsworth)
had a chauca to rcniv.
Mr. Butler said that tho roason was
that ho had hold tho floor by that gen
tleman's courtesy, and therefore did
not think it well to arraign him at that
time for ills sins. daughter.
We find in tho columns of ono of our
exchanges, the following spicy llttlo bit
of gossip, which needs no Introduction
from us to commend it to tho minds of
our readers. It is a peep behind tho
scenes not often vouchsafed to tho un
initiated:. "A secret chapter in Senatorial his
tory has lust been divulged hero by Sen
ntor Patterson, who is a great lover of
fun, and unablo to keep a secret. Whon
Mr. Lincoln' Louisiana bill was beforo

alow met in tho lobby, and. after com
paring notes, discovered that oxtremes
nau met, anu tnat thoy were aiiKo on
posed to the bill. Sumner Insisted that
liuckalow should make a speech against
it, hut tho latter thought that a speech
from tho Democratic sldo would havo
no influence and ho in turn insisted that
Sumner should sneak bv all means.
Sumner pload lack of time, but Jocularly
remarucu to jiucitaiow, "it you win
writo tho speech I will deliver it." At
four o'clock the next mornin tho
speech was finished, Buckalow Imving
labored all night,
During tho day ho quietly slipped
tho roll of manifold Into Sumucr's hand.
On tho following morning Buckalow
was late. Arriving nt tho Capitol, and
entering tho Senate Chamber, ho found
Mr.'Sumnor occupying tho Senato with
a speech against tno aumission or i.ou
lsiana, winch speech isucKaicw soon
recognized as tho samo ho had handcU
to Sumner tho day beforo.
Sumner had In tho short Interval
committed tho wholo of it to memory.
Mr. Hamlin, passing Buckalow's seat
ui uiu lime, remarked , -aumncr is
talking sense for onco In Ids life.' "
It has transpired that tho estimates

The only specimens heretofore seen, wo

Ed. M'Henry was thero a couplo of
times. I was initiated. They called
It their "Club Meeting." (Somo havo
called it tho 'Golden Circle,' but tho
name was 'Club Meeting.') Thero was
nothing secret only tho signs. There
was a subscription to raise bounty money
for volunteers one evening xchenJwasin.
We raised over $700; how much more I
cannot tell. Thoy read from Constitu
tion nnd a newspaper. Onco, a nine
months' soldier spoke and Ed. M'Hen

and I told M'Henry to behave hirasslf;
it broke up tho meeting. Nothing said
about resisting tho draft. Edward M'-
.Henry had talked about it; ho allowed
thoy ought to ralso funds to keep draft

Jliram Ash, sworn: "I was at School
Houso in Benton, in 1803; Ed. M'Henry
was thero. I was initiated, Tho obli

of Pennsylvania and of tho United
States; not a word in tbo oath about'

'Union Club' and 'Democratic Club.'
Cross-Examined: Wo did not tako an

live in Fishingcreek township. I was
Initiated Into tho so-called secret meet
ings in Fishingcreek. Tho
oath was to support tho Constitution of

In tho oath about tho conscription act,
nor anything about resisting the draft.
Tho last meeting was in March or
April 1803, that 1 attended. The mem
Vers of the Socuty raised money to pay vol
unteers." Wo havo In provious numbers given
tho testimony of Aaron Smith nnd
Willi m Evans,government witnesses,
very much to tho samo purposo and ef
fect with the foregoing testimony con
cerning tho Club meetings. Charles
Gibbons, another government witness,
testified that ho "attended thrcoorfour
of tho so-called secret meetings," but
no question was asked him regarding
their character or tho proceedings which
took placo when ho was present. Tho
inference to bo drawn from this fact is,
that ho could testify to nothing which
would condemn them or cast suspiciou
upon the motives or conductor tho per
sons who nttended them.
Wo havo then one dozen rcputablo
witnesses who testify to tho Innocent
and lawful character of tho Club meet
ings of 18G3, against a slnglo witness
upon tho othor side. Every witness ex
amined in relation to those Club meetings
whether for the government or for the defense
lave Ed, M' Henry, pronounced their vindica
tion from all censure or evil imputation.
Mr. Dawes of Massachusetts in his ro
cent speech In Congress said that tho first
year of Grant's administration will cost
forty nine millions more than tho last year
of Johnson's. This Is retrenchment and
reform with a vengeance If this bo
virtuo and morality by all means glvo
us vlco as a cliango for tho hotter. As a
natural result of this honesty of speech.
Mr Dawes lias not risen very high In
the estimation of sundry of Ills Repub
lican brethren, who assail him In var
ious ways, but tho conclusion is inov-
itablo that ho speaks, tho truth, end that
tho professions of tho Republican party,
that retrenchment is being carried for
