An amendment to the Constitution,
providing for the election of 1.
Senators by tho people instead of the
Legislature is being agitated. That
would be proper euough, the people
should have the right to deterroiue who
shall be their Senators. Under such
an amendmeut it would never have
been possible io saddle a Simon I am*
eron upon our state, who never was
elected to any office by the people.
And now Sumner is opposing the
centennial jubilee. On the -• ult ~in
the senate the centennial bill came up
when Mr. Sumner offered his amend
ment in the nature of a substitute,
providing that the government haii
not take any responsibility with regard
to the ceutenuial. Mr. Suuincr then
proceeded to address the senate iu
favor of his proposition, lie dis
claimed any opposition to the celebra
tion of the centennial of American
independence, but he was op|w*.d to
mixing it up with a world's fair. He
then proceeded to sketch the history
of American independence, speaking
at considerable leugth without dis
cussing the merits of the bill before
the senate.
If the Philadelphia linjt were
killed ofl", there would not be so uiu£h
hcsitaucy iu some quarters to give the
ceuteunial more earnest encourage
ment. But people have an idea
that if the riug gets its dirty fingers
into it, they will steal the bigger
part of the funds.
A New Yorker has sent #SOO to
the conscience fund —rnouey which he
had unjustly taken from the govern
ment. A few fellows have cheated
the Reporter after lifting it some rears,
if conscience dont strike them, the
sounding of Gabriel's trump on the last
day, will be the commencement of a
warm time for tbeni.
John Latta, some time ago, was
mentioned iu connection with the
next democratic nomination for gov
ernor. Now we notice that he is
mentioued for lieutenant governor.
Mr. Latta may next be recommended
for chief clerk of one of the depart
ments.
Bruce Petrikeu also was mentioned
for governor, a month ago. We now
hear a Huntingdon paper "tetchiiig
him out" for lieutenant governor.
Trot out your second rate material,
there is some more of it on hand.
Our member, Mr. Orvis is on the
committee to investigate the recent
black-mailing scheme to aid in the
passage of the usury bill. He has
given the witnesses a thorough sifting,
and if there was anything in them, on
ly the deepest perjury on the part of
the witness, could prevent Mr. Orvis
from getting it out.
Senator Cameron meets with i
success in putting the centennial hi
through the senate, and has failed in
several attempts. No wonder, any
measure in such hands must be look
ed upon with suspicion. Cameron is
the wrong mau to put at the head of
any thing reputable.
The bill allowing parties to take 10
per cent interest by special coutract,
was defeated in the house, the other
day, which settles the matter for this
session.
Brown's last week's paper pelts u
broadside at representative Oryis.
Wc thought Wiliiam had learned to
know, ere this, that all his shots are
as paper pellets against an iron clad,
bo far as Orvis is a fleeted thereby.
W. W. "went for him" right hand
somely last election, and the result
was a largely increased majority for
Mr. Orvis. Brown is past hurling
any one, and never would be held
guilty of slander, for bis abuse has
the opposite effect, and no one believes
what he Bays. Better print Mr. Orvis'
record, and let your readers know
What he is doing, and make yourself
respectable—Mr. Orvis is gaining
strength every day, no matter what
Brown says.
The state of Massachusetts and the
radical parly of that commonwealth
io particular, has been iu tearful com
motion, on account of the appoint
ment of oue Simmons a collector at
Boston. Butler and his faction were
for Simmons —the balance of the Mas
sachusetts delegation and the inost of
the leading rads were against him,
and the war was terribly bitter. The
matter was decided on 27, by the con
firmation of Simmons. Iu fact, the
fight could not have oeen more bitter
and caused more ugly mouth-malting,
if it had been a peck of Green per-|
simmons that the anti Simmon's rads
were made tc swallow, aud everybod/
knows how quick gaeen persimmon
will draw a rnau's mouth into a whist
ling attitude. Senators Boutwell aud
Sumner again severally spoke iu op
position to the nominee. Senators
Conkling and Carpenter advocated
the nomination, speaking in praise of
the gentleman and of his business ca
pacity, and were unable to see in the
remarks presented any proper reasous
for rejection. Finally the vote was
taken, and the senate confirmed the
nomination by a vote of 27 to 17.

The Philanthropic allusion of Mr.
Cox to the colored patriot!*, "sit it>g
uniformly in the galleries, and to
their urgent, desperate need of decent
clothing, suggests a question which
somebody ought to consider and m l
upon, ai d that wontbody should be
the Senate or tlio House of Kepreeu-1
iativ*s. It is, Shall men and boys,
howev* r well colore*!, but ragged to
I rhe poiut of indereuey, and dirty to
absolute filthincaa continue to enjoy
the freedom of the galleries? 'l'hey now
make them their lounging and rest
ing places. Soiue of these habitues
are famous sleepers. Keen when the
rights and privileges and wrongs and
disabilities of their own race are un
der discussion, somnolency * vcrcomea
them, and they sleep "not wisely but
too well." Senators have told me thai
ihorugh ail their night sessions thev
:iir 6ncotnpAtt\ k il about tv thii uiiik
cloud of oblivious witnesses, who some
limes spend the entire night, especi
ally if the weather In* cold or stormy,
luxuriating in the warmth and com
fort of the suiunur-like air aud soft
cushioued seats of the gallery. Now
the quesliou is. Should the I uitrd
States Senate Chamber be u*ed as a
station-house for vagrants, however
meritorious, sud tatterdemalions, how
ever patriotic ? Colored women, hav
ing a more lively sense of propriety,
and not having the franchise, seldom
visit the Capitol except in their Suu
day best, vet 1 saw the other day in
i the ladies gailt ry of the Senate a cou
i pie of elderly ©oloivti UUIKIUSM** who
[evidentlv did not do their own wah
ing, ueithsr did they put it out.
1 was a irieud to the colored peo
ple when they needed friend-—when
the politicians who court and use them
now were ridiculiug, reviling, and
hunting them down;
harsh or fault finding spirit I sjwak
now. "Faithful are the wounds of a
friend." I mean all I say in kindness,
but somebody oogjit to sp-ak out
when there is a general cause of corn
plaiut. Sloth aud squalor are uot
confined to our lately enfranchised
citizens, but here at the capital they
oftenest put on that color—a color
which always inclines mo to lenient
judgment, remembering the long,
dreadful past, the hard condition ot
the old life, the cruel hindrances, the
darkness, the boudago—all unfitting
them for habits of rder ami industry,
for selfrespectiug respectability ztiil.
1 think it is time they were taught
either by the precept aud example of
the most intelligent and refined ot
thairowu race, or by the authority
yet f>r a lime renting in ours, to re
! gard the proprieties and decencies of
life. Into our street care, especially
those on the avenue, come rneu and
boys whom it is uot disagreeable but
positively perilous to set by anima
ted masses of rags, giving out foul
and sickening odors Ihe street car,
| tis true, "is the poor man's carriage,"
but it it extravagauce in the poor
J man to use it when he can as well
j walk. How men ragged as Xeapo
! litan lazzaroui tan afford frequent
indulgences of the kiud is to rue a
profound and baffling mystery. 1 have
known great hulking, lazy boys, with
rags fluttering in every wiud, like
signals of distress, tske a street ear
for a lift of three or four blocks.
I Colored youths of this sort show a
raauly jealousy of their rights under
the fifleeutb amendment, aud seldom
| are known to offer a seat to ft women,
| whether she be a delicate white girl
or a feeble old colored "aunty,
are almost as uncivil as New York
merchants, lawyers, and (tjlton. I
hope I need not say lam glad that
colored people can ride in the cars,
but it does seem to me they are over
doing the thing in this city, he
hardly have a fair chance; they have
so taken possession of that popular
vehicle that we think of petitioning
the munificeut and magnificent cor
poration of the Georgetown and Navy
vard Street Railway to furnish a set
|of new aud eleguut cars, and put new
straw in them aud colored eouduo
tors on them, and set them apart for
our colored citizens, leaving to us the
present* old, dilapidated concerns,
unchanged, except that they shall be
plainly lettered. "While people
allowed to ride in these cars."
To be serious and not invidious,
It seems to me that for the honor
and safety of the community, regu
lations should be established exclud
ing all persons indecently ragged or
offensively dirty not only from the
galleries of the Capitol hut from the
public conveyances of the city, and
that these regulations should be rigid
ly enforced without regard to age, sex
color, or previous condition of servi
tude.
Since winter weather and black of
funds have suspended operations of
the Board of public Works, many
poor colored men are quite out of em
ployment. How do they live ? Do
the ravens feed them ; and who are
j the ravens ? They are not riotoua or
disquieted. They seem rather to en
joy their leisure in hanging about the
City Hall, and thronging the head
quarters of the District Governmeut.
Any point where voting is going on,
and their race is represented, has still
a novel attraction for them. The
more ignorant have wild ideas of
their political privileges. They seem
to think that offices are lying about
loose, and that they can help them
selves to the franchise at any time.
What man so ignorant and so poor
among them all as to be wilting to
change his political status for that of
an intelligent, well-to-do white wo
man ? They are adopting, I fear, come
of the questionable social philosophies
of the highest civilization. A friend
lately overheard a little street-corner
talk between two young colored la
borers, Says one, ou the broad grin
of friendly delight at the encounter :
"Why, I declar, I'se mighty glad to I
see you: how is you, and how's yer
family?" Says the other, ou a broad*r
grin, "O, I'se fust rate —but I haint
got no family," "Whatl is yer wife
dead ?" "Bless ye. uo, she's only run
ned away with another roan; how's
your woman ?" But slavery was not
the best of schools in which to learn
respect fur the marriage bond as a
sacred, irrevocable compact, ami per
haps it is well that they take its oc
casional rupture iu this easy philoso
phical spirit—not considering that the
emancipation proclamation ami con
stitutional amendments give them the
right to stab ami smother inconsistent
consorts, like so many Othellos, or to
avenge their domestic infelicities by
shooting right and left, like ordinary
Anglo-Saxon heroes or great am
bassadors and envoys extraordina
ry.

Mr. Young, from the Di'uiuick
Committee, will report in fall on
Tuesday.
The Special Committee, of which
Senator An*lers*>u. of Allegheny, is
chairman, appointed to investigate
the charges of lieen'.iousiieos, preferred
against A. L. Guso, of the Caosville
Soldiers' Orphans' School, have ie
turned from Huutiugdou county,
where the Committee held meetings
at Caasville and elsewhere on fuc?
day, Wedueadny an.l Thursday of
this week. They adjourned la-t night
to meet again in Huntingdon on
Friday of next waek, whet) thetvi
deuce will be closed, and the Com
uiittee wilt make their report.
At this week's meeting of the
Committee upwards of oue hundred
ami fifty witnesses were examined on
behalf of the defendant, Guc- The
testimony was entirely of a negative
character, and was aimed to excul
pate Guss hv the evidence of persons
who hail uever eeeu him commit the
acts complained of. The general
impression is that the evidence put
duccd for the prosecution was uot
shakeu iu the least.
There are rumors at Huntingdon
that extraordinary cttbrU are being
put forth to induce some of the wit
nesses who testified against Guss at
the past meetings of the Committee, to
put in retractious a' the meetiug uext
week, and that money is being freely
used to accomplish this purpose. Oue
pretty straight story is that a girl
whoso testimony seriously iucriutiua
ted Guss, has been offered four- liuu
dred dollars to go on the stand again
aud contraiict herself. There is
rather strong evidence of this.
The closing meetings of the com
mittee are expected to be very excit
ing. The people of the county ate
! intensely interested, and the feeling
. runs high. The majority believe
IGuss guilty, while ne has a few
\ friends who staud by him and say lie
is a persecuted saiut.
Feb 27- House bili No. 18; re
galing the usury law,,, expo pj ou
j second reading.
The pending question was a motion
of Mr. E. Reed Myer to postpone the
bill indefinitely,
Mr. Wolfe entered into a personal
explanation of the motives which had
induced him last Friday to call tie
previous question in the midst of a
speech by Mr. Orvis iu favor of the
bili. liw bad taken that action be
cause it had been apparent to him
that Mr. Orvis had intrnded to "talk
against time," i e , to consume all the
time until the hour of adjourumeul,
and thus prevent a vote upon the bill.
He had been confirmed in that view
by tindiug upon the floor, at the foot
of his desk, a noto addressed to Mr.
Orvis by another member, saying,
"Orvis, can't wc prevent them from
getting a vole today? Wide is
! preparing to call the previous ques
j tion."
At this point Mr. Wolf* wa„ jpter
I rupted by the speaker pro Inn. Mr.
, Newmyer, who alluded pointedly to
the impropriety of presenting a nols
obtained in such a manner, more
I particularly in be absence of Mr.
Orvis (who is on duly out uo an In
' vestigating committee).
Mr. Wolfe defended himself by say
i ing that the note had contained notii
j ing improper, nnd that Mr. Orvis,
j who war effected too by it, was fully
able to take car* of himself on his
return.
Mr. Talley said that he bad made
a definite agreement with Mr. Wolfe
on that day by which he [Mr. Wolfe]
promised on his houor as a man and
a member not to call the previous
question, yet lie had violated that
promise a f;w moments afterwards.
Mr. Wolfe admitted these facts,
j but explained that he had only vio
lated the agreement when it had be
come evident that Mr. Orvis intended
to talk uutil the hour of adjourn
ment. He had moreover, become
irritated by some |tersona! allusions
made by Mr. Orvis.
Mr. Talley replied that a member
who allowed himself to become so
irritated as to forget a solemn promise
ought not to spenk.
Mr. Newmyer (Speaker pro tem.)
said that the attempt made by Mr.
Wolfe on that day to force a vote on
the usury bill immediately on the
heels of tbo developments of the at
tempted bank swindle, was as bad as
calling the "previous questisu" in the
midst of a member's speech.
Mr. E. Reed Myer considered that
Mr. Wolfe had violated no rule of the
House, and was in his opinion entire
ly justified it) the course he bail ta
ken.
The bebate then took h discursive
form. Various members explained
the reasons which would influence
them in their votes upon the usury
bill, all of them alike disclaiming
being influenced in any way by out
side pressure or by any of the acts of
irresponsible parties.
The motion to indefinitely postpone!
the bill was agreed to by C 8 yeas to
14 nays.
House, Feb.2B.—Mr. Orvis rose to!
a question of privilege, und staled
that lie saw from the proceedings of]
the house that a private letter ml-j
dressed to him had been read by the
gentlemen from Union, nnd said he
was very much obliged to the gentle
man for withholding the name of the
writer, and hud no objccliou to the
gentleman's reading all his letter
under the same condition, and only;
rose to let the writer of the note
know that his confidence had not
been betrayed, as lie (Mr. Otvisjj
did not know how the gentleman
from Union (Mr. Wolfe) had ob
tained possession of the note.
Mr. Wolfe stated in reply that
the note referred to hud been hand
ed to him by a third party and
had not been picked up by him
self.
Mr. Orvis replied, und lite mallei
was further discussed by Iwitii yen j,
tlemeii.
