Last oi' tho Corans.
Among the many f.iir castlo-hoines ol Ehg
land thcro could bo none fairer or more
stately than ComnCn3tle, SuiTnlk. There
lived Squiro Coran, a fino specimen of tho
olden school stoni, rugged, nnd unbending
as ono of his own oaks, yet Withal genial and
kindly. The meanest peasant on his estate
walked brisker when lio saw tho Squire, nnd
smiled for fivo minutes after heating his
merry "Fine morning: first-rate weallierl"
Nearly forty years had pa&scd einco tho
squiro laid his fair girl-wifo in tho vault of
tho Corans nearly twenty had passed sinco
he had buried by hcr-sido tho ono son of
their short wedlock. Yet Corau .Castlo was
not desolate. Tlid "heir," though lio had
died young, had lived long enough lo leave
a widow nnd two orphan babes to his fath
er's care. Thcso orphans wore now growii
up, ond the names of Hugh and Emma re
sounded through tho castle, shouted in tho
full, cheery voico of tho hearty old man.
Dclarly did ho lovo (horn both : but Hugh
was somewhat Wild atid way Wdrd j and tvould
sometimes thoughtlessly thwart his grand-
siro's imperious will. Ono soro object over
lay between them. Tho old squire was a
giant in stature and strength s hisyouth had
been signalized hy feats of prowess and dur
ing) of which lio never wearied to boast,
Hugh Coran, on tlid contrary, had small
tasto for field sports, and being small and
delicato in frame, constanly tooltto himself
his grandfather's careless seofls about "lady
men" and "dogeneracy."
Not halt a mile from Coran Castle was ft
large tract of heath and moorland, very
wild and lonely, and nt that timo infested
with highwaymen. It was neeossnry to
cros3 this district to reach tho neighboring
villago of Wrottcl. Ono day, in tho winkr
time, Hugh Coran had occasion to go to (his
villago. Ho did not return when expected,
and dinner was served without him, Just
as it was over ho catno in, excusing his tar
diness, by saying that suspicious characters
had been seen on tho moor, and, therefore,
bo had waited for companions on his home
ward Journey,
His mother was about to commend what
tffher seemed butprudcncc.when tho squiro
burst into a storm of invoctivo nt Hugh's
'cowardice." When had Aefenrcd any mor
tal man, least of all a midnight robber? Tho
moorland offered no shelter for a band t
highwaymen, and ho took shamo that ono
of his race dreaded encounter with any sin
glo foe. Old as ho was,' ho would rido over
Coran Moor alone at midnight, and no hand
should harm him or touch his purse. He
blushed yes, that was tho stinging word
for tho last Of the Corans of Coran.
In vain did Hugh answer gently that ho
did not think his courage would fail if put
usefully to tho proof, though he owned ho
hadbutliltlo of tho reckless daring of tho
aneicnt Corans j but still ho thought ho
modoetly said ho thought, for the youth was
no brnaaart that ho would risk his own life
to savo another's. Hut the squire's jast words
were too much. His bluo eyes Hashed, ho
throw down his knife, left his dinner unfin
ished, and his mother and sister in toarsi
Ho did not show himself all that evening.
Late at night a messenger name from Wrot
tcl, bearing tidings of the sudden and dan
gerous illness of an old friendof thesquiro's.
The man who brought the letter went on
with another to a more distant neighbor.
' I shall go at once," said the squire to
Emma nnd her mother) "I must see him
again in life."
" Theri Rogers will attend you ?" suggested
tho wldotv tfmidly.
No j Lalymcr Coran was no court popin
jay, who could not take care of himself; ho
was not afraid of the dark oowards wcro
unknown in his young days.
Squiro Coran went to his room to prepare
for his Journey. Boasting never strength
ens ono's own courage, and he took great
care that his pistol was itt good order. At
another time, notwithstanding the reality
of the danger, he would not have taken tho
pistol but now ho loaded it with deadly
precision, and laid it carefully in his great
coat pocket.
Emma rait to call her brother to say good
by, but she found libs door locked and eould
get no answer.
" Let hitn atoue," said her gran.lS.lher i
"let liltfi alone example is better than pre'
ceit ;" and so he rude away.
There was only a cloudy moon, but the
stout-hearted traveler knew his rood, and
was as little likely to inias his way on the
moor as is a street Arab to loose himself in!
London. His thoughts went before him to
his dying friend, and bis indignation with
Hugh slowly faded fr.iin his mind, when,
just as a cloud obscured the moon, lie he ird

on his path, a liatld suddenly caught his
Bridle and a pistol was pointed at his head.
"Your money of your life I" f,-"'u
The words word s poltCn qilicklyVln n, (lis
gulscd but agitated voicoi Theio was jint
light enough to see that the hlghvraymnh
was a slightly-built man of no apparent
physical force, yet tho squiro remembered
his vain boast as ho felt how completely hd
was in tho striplhig's power. There was a
moment's silenco. Tho squire's hand was in
his great-coat pocket. Did tho robber think
ho was getting Ills flUlsor Did tho squiro
kriow lio was searching for his pistol ?
The highwayman spoke again in tho same
6trango Voice, which seemed full of smoth
ered passion and grief "I havo heard (hot
you would never yield to a singlo man."
ThoSquiro's blood boiled at tho implied
taunt, but yet the pistol was terribly noar his
head, and ho felt that in such case neither
strengtli nor courage can always win the
victory.
"Nor would I yield to you," ho said ho
know not what prompted him "not to you
nlono; but that other follow looking over
your shoulder "
Tho robber started ehuddcrinely nnd turn
ed. Swift as lightning tho squiro aimed his
own pistol and fired 1
for a nioment tho moorland seemed illu
minated ; out of tho fiendish brightness came
a light, sharp almost girlish shriek. A sec
ond moro alt was dark nnd quiet, and tho
spiiro realized that ho stood nlono in tho dim
moonlight, with a dead man at his feet.
A slcrn man was Laty mcr Corort of Coran,
and ho was not to bo brought to a pauso on
his journey becauso ho had chanced to slay
a thief. Nor was il tho nwo and horror of
bloodshed which blanched ond Hushed his
check as ho rodo on. No, his rigid justice
argued that the man deserved his death, only
it was llol lncct that such as ho should hav8
betrayed nn honorablo gentleman to deceit.
For ho know that ho had verified his boast
and saved himself by a lio 1
That haunted him nj ho etood in thd grim
chamber of Wrottcl clock-houso and saw tho
lat of his old friend, tlie county magistrato.
Ho despatched no ono to tho dead robber
timo enough for that when ho returned in
tho morning.
Then ho took officers of justico wfith him,
arid these respecting his position ond .the
depression iu which ho seemed plunged,
walked quietly stdo by side, a littlo way be
hind his horse. At last they reached the
spot where tho deadly deed hod taken place,
To their astonishment a littlo group of peO
plo wcro gathered about, and as they drew
near they heard a sound of Iatncntalion,and
tho squire saw hisown liveried servants, ono
nf them holding tho bridlo of a riderless horse.
They turned startled whito face to him as he
tode up, ond wcro silent.
"What is tho matter?" he demanded, im
periously.
" Oh I ho canna bo dead 1 tho bonnio lad-
dio I" sobbed on old Scotch groom.
" Sotnd ono has shot Mr. Hugh," said two
or thrco at once.
'It must havo been a duel," said some ond
"for tho young master has Lis own pistol
with him."
Tho squiro pushed his horso through the
crowd. On tho blood-stained heather lay
his antagonist of tho night before his own
young grandson tho back of his head com
pletely shattered nnd stains of blood on his
fair, boyish face. Tito steward knelt by tho
corpse, disengaging tho pistol from tho stiff
grasp of the dead. Ho looked at it will:
wondering, bewildered eyes, and said: " It
has never been loaded 1"
Then old squiro understood it allj ho un
dcrstood that his boastful, provoking words
had aggravated Hugh to put his courago
to tho test In tho hopo of convincing him
that thcro is no trial of bravery between an
honest man and a robber. And tho squiro
understood also that had that unloaded pis
tol been what it had seemed, ho, tho Honor
abld Coran of Cot an, had only escaped by a

" 1 did It I" ho said glooniiiy, and tho two
deferential ufilecrs of justico camonnd stood
at either sido of Laty mcr Coran, and hisown
servants fell back in horror and dismay

Congress lias adjourned, nnd the issues
hiado between tho two battles during tho
extra session havo been sttbrtilttcd to Iht)
high collrl of the pcoplo for their vcrdlcti
Tho closing scenes In the Senato were with
out any excitement whatever. Whfch tLe
executive session closed and tho doors wcro
opened It was fivo minutes of tho hour fixed
for adjournment. Captain Basectti with a
broomstick In hand) glided to tho block and
turned tho hands bands bade fivo minutes,
wl.ilo Mr. thUrman looked In another di
rection. Tho Senato was waiting for an
enrolled bill from tho House. Whilo so
w'aitliiK lio order tas observed, Senators
scattered about tho floor and conversed In
loud tones, visitors surrounded Mr. Thur-
man, and several men strolled round With
hats on, under tho impression that tho ad
journment hod taken placo. Tho clock
bauds slolo along, meanwhile, towards five,
and as it tbu3-nearcd that figure, ijapl
Bassett manipulated tho broomstick oncd
moro nnd put back the tide of tihle six mini
utes. This was tho last backward turn that
was necessary. Clerk Adams made his ap
pearance with tho bill which was duly
signed by Mr. Thurtnan and rushed In to
Mr. Hayes. In two minutes it was nrn
proved, and at thrco minutes to five, by tho
clock, but about Ictt minutes' past, In fact)
Senator Thurnian delivered his brief addfcsS,
and adjourned tho body sine die. Tho Sen
ators miiieled together, bidding each othef
goodbyoj Republicans and Dcmoerala laid
aside alt Iho cares of state, forgot tho bittef
contest of tho session, and gaVd expression
to tho kindly feelings they fcally felt fof
each other. Senators Thurmail and Conk
ins wcro surrounded by Senators bf both
partiesand each ono expressed the hopa
that a summer's rest may restoro Iho health
of tho former, and that tho hatchet between
tho latter and Lamar would bo bdried for
ever. Senate officials and employees went
upon the floor, nnd joined in tho hand-shal
ng which lasted about twenty minutes. At
olf-past fivo everything was deserted and
gloomy j tho last man had departed, and
tho chamber woro on air that was positively
grave-like.
Tho House, liko tho Senate, permitted thd
session to cxptro in tho most quiet aud or
derly manncf; A recess was taken front
about thrco until foUr o'clock, and the mem
bers scattered throughout tho Capitol. An
other recess for ten minutes was taken after
four o'clock, in order to kill little, and that
was consumed bv members In bidding each
other good bye. As iu tho Senate, all parti-
sari feeling disappeared, and thd Houso was
unanimously in a happy framd of mindj aw
though longer would havo probably beeil
objected had tho sentiment then prevailing
taken legislative shario. A inlnulo before
fivo o'clodk the Speaker Very briefl ex
pressed Ids thanks to members of all parties
for their uniform courtesy, and adjourned
tho Houso. Tho announcement wa? ap
plauded by the members and tho galleries.
8 mo of tho members lingered fdr a while,
btit thany hurried to their lodgings to pse
paro for departure on tho first train. In less
timo than half an hour tho hall was surreal
dercn td tho sweeper and cleaners and the
voico of statcm.inslilp was hushed until next
December.
Tho President nnd his Cabinet wcro early
at the Capitol the former occupying his apart
ment north of tho Senate chamber. Tho
custom of having tho executive and his ad
visors near at hand on tho eve of flintl ad
journments gre out of tho fact thatoftorf
times bills and resolutions nro parsed just lit
time lo bo signed on tho very threshold of
tho Senate) and it is not unfroquently thd
C130 that tho lastdar of a session is tho busi
est for tho 1'rosideut and his cabinet. But It
was not so to-day, for only a very few bills
wcro passed, ami thcro was littlo or nothing
for tho Trosidcntto do. Thlswos evidenced
by the restless manner in which the differ
ent cabinet officers wandered about on tha
floor of tho Senato during the afternoori.
Tho fact that no bills or Jobs wcro to bo rail
roaded through had tho salutary cQbct Of
ridding tho corridors and approaches of that
largo class of hanger-on known as lobbyists;
At half-past four lit tho afternoon, tho
President was informed by Senator Don
Cameron that, after making a full canvass1
of tho Senate, it had been ascertained that
thcro was nd quorum of unpiirod Senators
present and it was inipossiblo to socure the
confirmation ofllon.'R. Stockctt Matthews,
to tho Maryland judgeship. Tho President;
who had waited until tho last moment; ex
pressed his regret at this intelligence, as hd
bad wished aud oxpectod that Mr. Matthews
would ultimately bo confirmed. Up to yes
terday it is said that it was the Presidant's'
intention, In the event of a failure of the Sen
ato to act upon the nomination, to appoint
Mr. Matthews Ui the vacancy, and renomin
ate him at tho next session, vrbcii with a full
Senato and the nominee's six months' pro
bation upori tho bench, much of the preju
dice against him would bo dispelled, and Ills'
confirmation obtained by a flattering ma
jority. Tho Attorney General, after exam
ining tho tenuro oloulee law carefully, de
cided that, If Congress adjourned and Mn
Matthews' nomination remained uriacted
Upon, not only could not the President ap
point Mr. Matthews to the vocantjudgcshlp;
but nobody else ooUld be appointed, and tho
office would, thorefo'e, havo to remain va
cant until next winter. Both the President
and Attorney General decided that tho pub
iio Interests demanded, Under the circum
stances, that Judgo Giles' successor should
bg confirmed before tho final adjournment,
as the vacancy in tlie office- had already ex
isted too long, arid Had caused serious incon
venience to the litigants in that court. Tho'
President, hotvevcr, said that ho should de
fer the withdrawal ofMr. Matthews' name7
until his friends had every opltortunity to
eireet his confirmation. Accordingly when!
Senator Don Cameron declared that noun
paired quorum could be obtained to vote on
the rpuMiou, the 1'resldeut taut a messago
to the Senate withdrawing Mr. Matthews'
name and nominating Mr. Thomas J. Mor
ris, u gentleman who ra acceptable to Sen
ators White ami Umome and D-m Cameron.
The nomination Was relieved by 'I1 Senato"
nt 4:3(1 P. m. just a half hour before the
flinif adjournment and was Immediately re
furred tn the Judiciary CoininiUe. Tho'
latter body forthwith retired to the cloak
room, ami having been assured by the Mary
land Senators that the noiii'inaUon was tnt
isfactoty, a favorable report was at ouco
made, and as promptly or ifirmed by a una
nimous voir, fliii'h was the termination of
