DEFEAT OF THE STAY LAW.
The Bill . providing for a Stay of Execu
tion, which has been pending for two
years, in the House of Representatives,
was defeated oa its final passage, on
Wednesday last, by a decisive vote. The
Legislature of Pennsylvania, by this ac
Lion, has deliberately turned its back upon
the thousands of debtors, honest men, who
want to pay their honest debts, and tells
them, in language as strong as language
can speak it, that they have nothing to ex
pect at its herds. No, honest debtors, you,
the many, are to be left to your fate to
oblige capital, the few you who have
wrought and toiled and skimped and starved,
for the last two years, are turned away as if
you were the mere toys of wealth. Who
has done this thing ? It is said the lawyers
did it. We do not believe it because we
know that the ablest lawyer in the House
favored the Bill.
We know that lawyers, like other
people, take care of their own interests,
sad the presumption arise?, naturally
enough, that they opposed the Bill from
selfish motives. But this is certainly a
mistake. Lawyers are making no money
out of the present depressed condition of
the country. Judgment notes containing
a waiver of everything, save Civil and Po
litical Rights, are no advantage to lawyers.
A ruined community has no money to go
to law with. An impoverished people can•
not buy real estate, nor . institute great
ejeetments, nor engage in any legal dis
putes. Good times are the times for law-
yers. They make money when every one
has plenty of money to spend. Any thing
that will better the times will add to their
practice. No, no; we are not willing to be.
Leye that lawyers are so short-sighted as
to defeat a Stay Law in the face of the
wholesome provision which gives a free
holder seven years time to pay his debt.
No lawyer ever lost money by this stay,
nor will any lawyer ever loose money by
any other stay based upon good and sub
stantial reasons as this one is.
Then, again, we hear that the large cit
les opposed it. There are a few
hundred men in the large cities who are in
the wholesale trade or, perhaps, in manu
factories, these appear to think that a Stay
Law would operate against them. This is
also a groat mistake. A Stay Law oper
ates Is a bar to immediate recovery and
as soon as it becomes operative, the efforts
to compel payment cease fur the reason
that the creditor does not wish to wait two
years for his money, and consequently be
comes to the conclusion that if the debtor is
left alone he will pay in less time, and in
mine cases out of ten, he does. This was
the case in 1862. City creditors are oan
accinantly sure of their money because men
eannot continue business without settling
up old scores. Wholesale dealers and
manufacturers, therefore, stand in their own
light by opposing a measure of this sort.
While they are reported as being against a
Stay Law the hundreds of thousands
around them need the law as bad as the
country does. As an evidence of this fact
it ill said that tha late Sheriff of Philadelphia
cleared, during his term of three years, a
half million dollars !
It is high time that something were
dose to atop the wholesale wreck and ruin
which is to be found everywhere. The debt
or clue have no longer any rights in Penn
sylvania. They are entirely at the mercy of
.the creditor class. Yes ! proud old Pennsyl-
FIUlaiS about to drive hundreds and thous
ands of workingmen from her farms, her
workshops, her railroads and her factories .
It cannot be otherwiSe. The laboring classes
will find more liberal laws and greater pro
tection, and they can find them in every
other State in the Union. Just think of
it I Pennsylvania is virtually without an
Exemption Law ! virtually with Out a Stay
Law ! ind virtually without the advanta
gee of an Inquisitorial Jury ! The creditor
elms has asked all these concessions to the
debtor class to be ignored and the Supreme
Court has sustained them in their infa-
mono assumption. Now, then, when the
country is going to the dogs as fast as it
can there is not a single ray of hope for
the debtor unless the Legislature comes to
his relief. And—it refuses to do it.
IT is plainly talked in Washington, so
says the newspapers, and the action of the
House, on Saturday, seems to give war
rant for what it said, that the Democrats
now having lost all hope of Tilden being
counted in, propose to prolong the session
until after the 4th of March, and thereby
require a new election next fall ; and it is
claimed by the Democrats that there is a
loophole in the law by which the House
can recess themselves from day to day
forever. A Washington special dispatch
to the Pittsburgh Telegraph, on Saturday,
823 :
A Democratic revolutionary scheme is being
secretly talked about to-day. They are de
termined to prevent the inauguration of Hayes,
cost what it may. If the Louisiana eases shall
be decided in favor of Hayes, the Democrats
intend, if possible, to prolong the time by re
sorting to various kinds of dilatory proceed
ings, so as to prevent a decision of the Presi
dential question before the 4th of Match,
-thereby making another election necessary.
It is feared that, they will experience very
little trouble in consuming the remaining
twenty-two days without reaching the end of
the list of States. Already ten days have
transpired since the counting of the Totes be
gan, and only one of the several contested
,eases Lave thus far been reached.

The Commission's First Decision,
The Electoral Commission decided yester
day to take notice of no evidence in the case
of Florida except the certificates sent in from
the two houses, and such extraneous evidence
as may be submitted touching the eligibility
of Humphreys, one of the Hayes Electors. The
decision was supported by the three Republi
can Senators, the two Republican Represen
tatives, and Justices Strong, Miller and Brad
ley. It was opposed by the Democratic Sen
ators and Representives and by Justices Clif
ford and Field.
The effect of this decision is simple, but im
portant. It confines the attention of the Com
mission to the certificates, which are three in
number. "Certificate" is a technical term
used in the Constitution to indicate the pack
ages sent to the President of the Senate, and
purporting to contain the vote of a State for
President and Vice President. In the present
instance, there were three such packages.
One contained the vote of the Electors who
were declared elected by the Board of State
Canvassers, who held commissions as Electors
issued by the Governor in accordance with the
declaration of the State Canvasser, and who
also forwarded with their vote, the certificate
of the Governor, required by the Federal stat
ute, stating the names of the Electors. The
second "certificate" or package, contained a
statement of votes cast on the 6th of Decem
ber for Tilden by a body of men claiming to
be the Electors of the State, and sustaining
their claim by the proceedings of a Circuit
Court of the State, copies of which were in
closed. The third "certificate," or package,
contained a statement of the same votes cast
by the same body of men, with a certificate
made out in January, by a new Governor, to
the effect that by an act of the Legislature.
approved Jan. 27, a new canvass of the votes
in the Presidential Election bad been made;
and that its result was to give the office of
Electors to the men who had cast the alleged
Electoral votes in December for Tilden.
These various papers, so far as the vote of the
State is concerned, constitute all which the
Commission consents to censider.
Some light is thrown on the disposition of
the case likely to be made after consideration
of the papers, by the arguments on which all
other evidence was excluded. The Democrats
asked the Commission to go into an investi
gation of the acts of the State Board of Can
vass and of the facts on which they were bas
ed. They asked the commission to enquire
whether the board had exceeded its powers,
and whether it had used them erroneously.
These things the Commission declines to do.
The Democrats produced certain proceedings
in the Florida courts and certain acts of the
Florida Legislature, based on the alleged error
and abuse committed by the Board of Canvas
ers, and intended to remedy such error and
abuse, The Commission having refused to
enter upou.au inquiry into the conduct of the,
board, will not probably give any weight to
legal or legislative proceedings relating to
that conduct. The only thing which remains
fcr the Commission to decide is which -certi
ficates" contained the votes of those Electors
whom the State of Florida appointed, and on
the face of the contents of the certifi
cates there is hardly room for any doubt as to
what the decision will be.
Concerningthe eligibility of Mr. Humpbrey's
it is on record that at the meeting of the Flor
ida Electors Humphreys, who had been a
United States Shipping Commissioner, testi
fied, under oath, that he had resigned his office
previous to election; that his resignation bad
been accepted by the Judge to whom he was
required to send it ; that the letter of the
Judge, notifying him of its acceptance, had
been receiveda week or ten days before the
election ; that another person had been di
rected to perform the duties of the office, and
bad, in fact, performed them since before the
election. These statements are now fully con
firmed by documentary evidence. We know
of no evidence capable of overturning this*;
and the decision of the Commission to con
sider this point does not seem of any essential
importance in the Florida case. Of its force
as a precedent it is too soon to judge.
Finally, in regard to the decision just ren
dered, it is to be remarked that it appears to
exclude the evidence taken by Congressional
Committees, a large amount of which the
Democrats sought to introduce by the device
of citing it in their objection and attaching it
to that document. It is probable that the
Commission, refusing to .consider such evi
dence in the case of Florida, will do the same
with reference to Louisiana and South Caro
lina. It will not, however, be bound to de
cline the consideration of evidence taken by
committee in the Oregon matter.—N. Y.
Times, Bth inst.
THE whole of yesterday was consumed in
the argument as to the eligibility of Mr. Hum
phreys, one of the Florida Hayes electors. He
was a United States officer, but resigned and
his resignation had been accepted before Ile
was voted for on the 7th of November, and
there would seem to be no sound reason for
excluding his vote from the electoral return if
it shall be decided that he received a majority
of the legal votes of his State. We think that
it would have been better for the friends of
Mr. Tilden had they passed the quibbles which
were thrown out to obstruct Mr. Humphreys'
vote, and gone at once to the controlling is
sues raised by the several Florida returns.
There were no intimations given by any of tht
commission during the day which can be mag
nified into importance, and the real work on
Florida will begin to day. The decision as to
the eligibility of Humphreys will decide noth
ing as to the Louisiana or Oregon disqualifica
tions of electors, so that no consequence what
ever will attach to the declaration to be made
to-day that there are no ineligible electors in
Florida. The outer brambles of the contest
will be pretty well cleared off to-day, and the
commission will now get down to the marrow
of the dispute.—Phgadelphia Times, 911 i inst.

It is stated that the reason Representative

was because a similar case would come

The ineligibility of George D. Chaffee, it is
alleged, is due to the following facts :—He
was appointed United States Commissioner
March 12, 1858, and he has never resigned to
this date. A certificate signed by Judge Treat,
the Circuit Judge, shows these facts. The

Correspondence of the JounNAt.]
WASHINGTON, Fob. 10, 1877.
The Question and Quesiioners of the Week —Republican
Prospects Bright—Not oat of the Woods Yet—lnterview
with the President—Grant as a Talker—llls style and
manner described by an old "Merchant of Eloquence"—
Does Fame give happiness—What Grant said.
Only one topic has been talked of this week—
the probable result of the debates before the Elec
toral Tribunal. Every man and woman in Wash
ington has disappeared. The bipeds that look
like them are only Interrogation Points—mere ?
divided into males and females—cunningly disguis
ed in dress—or—overcoats or else carrying hair
pins and the rest of the costumes usually worn by
women. The Republican Interrogation Points for
the most part "guess" that Hayes w ill win ; and
the Democratic Interrogation Points generally
"reckon' that Tilden will be counted in. The
present outlook unquestionably is that Hayes will
be declared elected. But altho' the prospects fa
vor him, the result is not yet sure. Florida does
not decide the - dispute beyond a doubt, al&ho' nine
out of every ten Republicans believe that the first
decision given practically ends the case. I have
spoken with Some of the best lawyers on our side
of the Senate, and I find that they are hopeful but
not confident. The telegraph will tell you the rest.
Congress is "making believe" that it is doing
business, but it is only "marking time." Nobody
cares about it and its members can hardly keep in
their seats. The Supreme Court for the time being
is dissolved. The Legislative and Judicial
"branches" of the Government are withered limbs.
Only the Executive Branch is left in a healthy
state. It is still run without calling for outside
help. ,"Let the dead bury the dead." Let us
wait until its "suspended animation" is restored
to vigor before noticing Congress again. I shall
speak about the live Department of the Govern
ment this week, and leave the graveyard and hos
pital departments in peace.
I had a long talk with the President last Sat
urday—that is to say, he did the long talking and
I did the long listening.
The "Silent Man," the "Sphynx of the White
House," when he does speak, is one of the best
talkers I have ever met ; and for seven weary
years I "sampled" the best talkers in the country
every week of my life, and for several hours of
every day of every week. As other men deal in
hogs or whisky, I dealt in orators and authors. I
was a wholesale merchant of :eloquence, so to
speak ; and sometimes I did a brisk retail business
in Talk that could not be called eloquence wiat
any loyalty to truth. There are a few fam
ous orators in the land—outside of the . strictly
professional orators—whom I have not listened to
by the hour in their private as well as public
talk. If "practice makes perfect" I ought to be a
pretty fair judge of tongue-goods, for I served a
full apprenticeship to the art of listening critical
ly to conversation, in order to decide whether the
talker would succeed on the platform, and to un
derstand, for practical business purposes, the
grasp, scope and complexion of his mind. The
habit thus formed has become a second nature.
I listen critically to every one. If I were in the
dock and doomed to die on the scaffold, the ter
rors of the hour could not overcome this habit;
for I should watch the judge's construction of his
periods and pass literary sentence on him while he
was passing judicial sentence on me.
Grant's talk is noteworthy for its clearness, its
Saxon simplicity, its terseness, its.grasp of facts.
and its strong massing of statements. He talks
rapidly, never pausing for a word, never using a
word more than is needed to make his meaning
clear, never uttering a word that tells of a doubt
in his mind. No man I have . ever met obeyed
Goethe's advice so faithfully—" Tell me what you
think; I have doubts enough of my own." He
never once said "perhaps," or "possibly," or "it
may be," although he spoke of South Carolina pol
itics and of the financial problem that are thick
with chances to use them. His verbal Style has
one charm very rare now, and daily growing rarer
among our public men, because, I fear, the mental
soil that it springs from is less prized by the peo
ple. He always chooses the shortest words: A
child would not have been able to grasp his argu
ment, because it dealt with an abstract question ;
but it would have known the meaning of every
word he said. For five minutes once his talk was
as rugged as Carlyle'e in the form of his thought;
but be was as clear and simple as Bunyan in hie
words. It is only the sham great minds that wal
low in long words. The pages that thrill us in
English oratory; the poems that have soared high
est in the pure air of song • the hymns that have
stirred for ages the souls of the'pure in heart ; the
prayers, the blessings, and the curses, that have
moulded. the life of a hundred generations—each
of them and all of them are clothed in the words
that the children prattle in their play-grounds.
Lincoln's Gettysburg speech, Butler's farewell ad
dress to the army of the James, Grant's every-day
talk are specimens of the purest Saxon that Amer
ica has given to the literattire of the century.
There are pages of Grant's War reports that will
be quoted some day as models of official rhetoric.
They have all the great qualities that such writing
should embody ; clearness, brevity, modesty—and
above all, they have the rare merit of stopping
when the story is told.
Grant's tone is as decisive as his words. Ile
speaks with an earnestness and power that leave
no doubt that he sees his points clearly, and, so
seeing, believes that the one duty is left is to make
them a base of operations against all who assail
them. His mode of stating his views is so strong
that it sounds aggresive—not offensive, not intol
erant either in phrase or thought ; only he seemed
to be addressing the viewless opposition with an
"unconditional surrender, or I shall move on your
works at once."
Grant's manner forms a striking contrast to his
words and tones. It is a modest or rather a bash
ful manner. It is Hercules with the distaff—the
manner of a man conscious of power but half
ashamed to find himself toying with words instead
of fighting with armies. As he talks, his eye lights
up and shows the hidden power that has made him
the greatest single force of our times. No an in
America is so truly tho representative of reserved
power.
thant's memory is a marvel. Ha never furgets
anything. Ile can talk by the h.iur about the po-
Utica! condition of every State, and give the dales
and facts that most of us prefer to recall by prosy
in the Tribune Almanac or McPherson's }land-
Book. I found that he knew all about the politics
of South Carolina ; and whoa he talks of the fu
ture of the party he shows by his accurate knowl
edge of politiCal staristi••s that be foresees dan
gers that hardly any of our public men even dream
of.
Grant is a good listener. Men who suffer with"
the verbal complaint think that they are good
talkers and they cannot wait ion g enough to listen
to any other voice. A healthy talker can be
known always by his power of listeniag As soon
as Grant answers a question or ends a topic, his
lips Laity together; he reaches out for a match,
lights his cigar again, faces you and never inter
rupts you. If he has nothing to say he cultivates
international good will by adding to the income of
Cuba. (If any man can invent a more diplomatic
synonym for smoking let him draw on me at eight
for a cigar.) If I were a French writer and de
lighted in epigrams I should say that Grant listens
like a loaded mitralluse—collected, cool, silent, but
giving one in front of him the impression that he
is ready to fire off a volley if he should not chanee
to like your style. H .wilt knows all about this
trait. He never stands in front of Grant now.
A •• bar'l of money" couldn't tempt him to do it
:,gate.. _ _ •
What Grant said abont the financial situation
was a brief of his message that he had ready for
Congress but had not yet signed. The only con
fusion of ideas in it that I could see was his theory
that there is any such thing possible ass "healthy
inflation" of the currency. InflatiOn is the mere
fat of the financial system; and when men or sys
tems go into training they must first of all get rid
of their fat. They need purely mus,ulitr develop
ment. A bloated man looks healthy, but he is
sick in exact proportion to his e,:tra bulk. It
seems to me also that the message, one of the
ablest he has ever sent to Congress;. would have
been entirely unobjectionable if he bad left out his
suggestions as to the repeal of the law that limits
the amount of fractional currency and silver coins.
They complicate an i 3,110 which is simple and wise
when presented on its own merits.
Republicans who have been led to belicue that
Gov. Chamberlain is not worthy of the entire con
fidence of the Nation, inay be interested to know
that the President, who has studied the Southern
question thoroughly, regards him as a man of it. -
tegrity, who gave a pure administratio t to South
Carolina, and is to-day "the ablest man in the
Union who is the Governor of a State or among
those claiming to be Governors."
But I do not intend to report the conversation.
as I did not visit him as an interviewer but as a
private citizen.
. _
The old question always comes "p one
brought into personal relations with men rd great
genius or in lofty positions : Ln fame and power
make men happy? litre is Grantwh, has risen
from the humblest rank in life to the highest po
sition on this planet ; from a tan-yard to the White
House ; from the dull obsedrity of a poor man's
struggles for bread in a Western village to the
dazzling eminence of the greatest historical repu
tation of his nation. Surely, he must be a happy
man—or regret onl: that he must soon lay „own
his symbols of power and popularity ?
"Well," he said, "I have just a month left; ami
it seems to me that I eon hardly wait for the time
to leave to come."
So, sixteen years of glory anti power, end will
an eager longing for quiet and rest ! Epectetus
was right. Our happiness must come Lot from
what we have but from what we ore.

A Wedding In High Life—The Legal Bripinth—Politi
cal—Crime—Beanies,.
A WEDDING IN HIGH LIFE
The papers are filled with accounts of a gorgeous
•'wedding in high life," which has afforded an itn
tnense deal of amusement in the clubs and among
the men about town. The lady in the case is the
daughter of a very wealthy man, who has some
thing over a million in her own right, and the
groom is a young man from a Western State, who,
only fortune was his voice, and a handsome face
and figure. The voice a very rich tenor, by the
way, has brought him SSOO a year, in an up-town
church, which sum has had to take care of his per
son, for that was all he had. The lady is past her
hey-day, and has the additional disadvantage of
not being a sylph in proportions. list the million
and over ! Half that sum would convert a much
uglier woman into an angel, and the young singer
found her defects in person no drawback whatev
er. Especially wero they not noticeable, after she
settled upon him an income of $16,000 per year
for life, and made over to him $lOO,OOO in his own
right. That proceeding eovered all her defects,
and he was led like a lamb to the—nuptial altar.
Prom this time out the gorgeous rooms of the lady
at the swellest of the swell hotels, will have two
occupants. Rather a good speculation counted as
a speculation—for a young man with only $6OO
per year! But then think of his being pointed out
every where as the husband of the rich Miss Croe
sus ! Think of bow hie fellows, who havn't mar
ried a million and over, will sneer at him, and turn
up their noses at him, for doing what ihey would
give all their earthly possessions to be able to do.
It will be hard lines for the young roan, and pos
sibly he his more than earned his money. lie
professes to be happy, tund swears, as he drinks
his wine—wine is a late habit with him--that he
actually loves her.
BLUE: GL ES.
Some years ago lien. Pleasanton publi ned an
article in which the assertion was wade that rheu
matism and a dozen other diseases could be cured
by permitting the beams of the sun to shine
through glass alternate white and. blue, and fall
upon the afflicted parts , that vegetables grown
under blue glass would produce infinitely more
than that exposed in the n tural way; and that
animals—carves, pigs, chickens, etc., kept under
blue glass would grow twice as fast as when in any
other light. A few weeks ago the article was re
produced, and this rime i took. The city papers
published it, with a lot of wonderful experiments
that had b en tried, and immediately a demand
for blue glass sprung up that was svonderful. In
two days every particle of blue glass was taken
up, and the astonished dealers had to telegraph
for supplies. Rheumatics used it, animal fanciers
covered their quarters with it and all carts of ail
ing and bed-ridden peopla are trying the new cute.
One writer asserts that he cured himself of rheu
matism by this simple ar,, , en,y, and others are
claiming that they are getting great benefit from
it. If there is anything in it it is queer ibat it
has never been discovered before—if it is a whim
it is certainly the most whimsical whim that has
ever struck the people. Look out for a blue glass
mania in your part.
EXCESSIVE FEES,
It pays to be a lawyer in New York, if you can
get any thing to do. The will case of the late
James It. Taylor makes an exhibit that is start
ling. Mr. Taylor left an estate that is worth
$200,000 cash, which has been enhirely eaten up
by the lawyers. One firm getsslo,ooo commission
for the sale of ten shares of Tiine9 stock. Other
firms got fees ranging from $4,000 to $211,000. and
now the litigation stops because there is nothing
more to pay the harpies with.
The papers in the city have taken the matter
up, and are urging the formation of an association
to resist the robbers. The charges for legal ser
vices are always exorbitant and oppressive. They
have more the appearance of robbery than charges.
and there is no use in going to the courts about it,
for•the judges aro lawyers, and never decide
against the craft. A young lawyer considers him
self amply provided for two or three years, if he
can become counsel in a decent bankrupt case.
There is never anything left of the assets, but the
attorney gets a fair start in life. Ile always con
siders himself in condition to marry when such a
plum drops to him.
POLITICAL.
The action of the Commission in the ease o:
Florida gives great satisfaction to the Republicans,
and the Democracy are correspondingly depressed.
In fact, they give np the case, and privately admit
that they are beaten. But don't suppose that the
struggle is to end here. Notwithstanding all their
professions of a desire for an amicable settlement.
and that this Commission would do it, Tilden will
carry tho case to the Courts, and make another
fight there. He has set his heart upon the Presi
dency, and his followers upon the fat plunder, and
neither he nor they are willing to give it up as
long as there is a plank to hang to. Tilden, in
anticipation of an adverse decision by the Com
mission, has gathered around b , m the best legal
talent attainable, and every day they are in con
sultation at his house. Depend upon it, that so
long as he o' his gang have a dollar, they will con
tinue the fight. They are playing for high stakes,
and it makes difference to them how much their
perversity may cost the country by keeping it in
an unsettled condition, or how much the inflam
matory appeals they make destroy confidence and
retard the business of the country. AB this is
nothing whe, put in the scale against the neces
sities of a hundred thousand bummers who want
places. But the thing will come to a sudden end
as soon as the Cominission 114. s registered its de
cree. The business men in that party are tired ut
being made the cat's-paw of the speculators, and
they will insist that that decision shall be final.
But look out for the Democratic papers just about
this time Mr. Tilden's bureau has just sent ott
a batch of ready-made editorials of the bull-dozing
order, breathing slaughterings and vengeance if
Titden be not counted in. They announce their
determination of going to the Courts, and if that
fails, "freemen know how to secure their rights,"
which is to say, if they are beaten in the Court
they will appeal to arms. Of course, they won't
do any such thing, but if they can frighten th.
Republicans Into a a urrender, it will be so much
made.
CRIME
The police columns have been unusually full
this week. The most terrible murder that has oc
curred for some time was that of Mrs. Flood by
her husband. It is the old story. Flood was a
working man, and Mrs. Flood was, in these hard
times, kept on very close rations. Mrs. Flood's
sister, an abandoned woman, came to live with
them, and she very soon showed her how to mend
her condition. Flood discovering his wife's re
peated infidelities, lett her, but could not keep
away. lie knew that she was criminally intimate
with a man named Alfka, and so last Saturday
morning he went to Alfka's room. The guilty
pair attempted to escape, Mrs. Flood running in
her nightdress toward her room. Flood, crazed
with liquor, followed the affrighted woman, and
just as he reached her door, plunged a tinsmith's
reamer into her breast, killing her instantly. He
escaped, wandered about for a day or two, and fi-
Daily gave hiintielf up. Ile said he srui tired of
life, and wanted the authorities to hanz him as
