SATURDAY EVENING, JUNE 3, 1882.
Evidently Seed Ameadmeau
Tiie United States Senate ha3 great
trouble with its presiding officer. It
holds that he has no fixed term of office
and that it can change him at any
time; and its rules de net allow the
elected officer te appoint a substitute
"ever an adjournment." The latest
disturbance has come from the designa
tion by President Davis of Senater In
galls te take the chair at the opening of
the Senate. It was objected te this that
Davis by failing te appear in the chair
had left the place vacant, and that it
could only be filled by election. The
Senate rules in this regard seem te be
embarrassing, and it would seem better
that they should be amended se that for
a certain period, however brief, the
right te the chair should net be subject
te dispute.
The lower Heuse of Congress is trou
bled, tee, with the presiding officer, but'
for a different reason. The difficulty
there is that the speaker is elected for
the Congress and the Heuse cannot get
rid of him save by the harsh method
of expulsion. A large majority of the
members would greatly like te have
another speaker, the one they have
chosen having proved himself very unfit
for the place. Hut he sticks and cannot
gracefully and readily be shoved out.
The Senate has net in times past been
much exercised ever its president who
has net been chauged during the session ;
nor at a succeeding session, unless his
term as senator was out or his party had
gene out of power. Hut lately President
Bayard was put out after a very brief
experience and President Davis put in ;
in execution of the authority claimed
for the Senate te change its officers at
any time. The majority were inspired
te find this authority by their preference
for Davis ever Bayard as next in line of
succession te the presidency. And the
doctrine they proclaimed then brings
them into perplexity new ever the ques
tion as te whether the president they
had yesterday is their president this
morning if he happens te come in
late te the session. If the pre
siding officer vacates his office by his
uen-appearauce at the opening of the
session it ought te fellow that if he is
net then: at Hie lime fixed for the open
ing lie loses his place. The consequence
of this doctrine may be that some day,
when a president dies during an adjourn
ment, the minority of the Senate, if they
are alert, may be en hand at the stroke
of the clock or may even put the hands
forward and get a president elected
who will b the acting president of the
"United Stales. Indeed, uuder the con
fessed practice of the Senate, this thing
may be done should a president die sud
denly during a session. The minority
may possibly be for the moment the
majority ; in which event the presiding
officer of the hotly could be instantly
changed. The Senate rules evidently
need amendment se as te give a fixed
term te a possible successor te the pres
idency, by which all dispute as te the
succession may be avoided.
The issue which has been keeping
Congress in a stale of excitement and for
raising which some of the slipshod
newspapers have been denouncing the
Democrats as " revolutionists" is very
much further-reaching than in its
application te the election tsisa
which provoked it. If such
amendments' can be made te the
rules as have been forced through
by the most despotic methods of a shame
less speaker, they can also be changed
te make in order anything en apprepri
atien bills, and se make the way le the
treasury clear for the most. extravagant
plundei'ingschemes, which it is well
. known the present Heuse was organ
ized te promote. The continuance of the
internal revenue taxes brings into the
national treasury a surplus f
many millions, and upon these the
eyes of the Republican jobbers have been
feasting. Keifer was put into the chair
and Robeson into command en the deer,
se that this money could be had for the
benefit of the speilsmen and the peli
ticians, who want te enrich themselves
and help their party by its misappropria
tion. Under existing rules, with the
party majority in the Heuse se close,
and wilh the grealer number of skillful
parliamentary leaders en the Democratic
side Ibis jobbery can lie blocked. Keifer
is willing te resort te any sort of rulings
te facilitate this end and the election
cases are only seized upon jis a pretext
for such amendments te the rules as will
enable tiie various jobs te get through.
A prolific oil field has just been dis
covered in Warren county and the price
of oil has gene down accordingly. Te
the outside observer it seems strange
that when these new oil fields arc opened
they are net secured under one control,
se that no mere wells may be sunk in
the basin and no mere oil be produced
than can be marketed profitably. It
would seem that capitalists in testing
new territory would secure it for a long
distance around their well se as te save
it from being tapped and te secure
te themselves the full fruit of
their hazardous enterprise. Things
de net seem te be worked in.
this way; when a new big well is struck
ether big ones around it also begin te
drain the natural reservoir, and costly
tanks are built te held what the market
will net take. The oil would be safer
left in its natural repository until want
ed ; "but it has te be diawn up te save
some one else from getting, it. It is cer
tainly a wasteful way of treating our
precious oil deposits and seems te need
legislation te correct it.
Bisiikk, who has been seated in Con Cen
yiess by the vole of his party, is a pro
fessional contestant, and generally man
ages le get the salary of a session by the
tenacity with which he hangs en te a
contest. lie was sworn into the Heuse in
1S77, and served until within about ten
days of the close of his term when be
was ousted te make room for the same
Finley whom he new displaces ; Bisbee
then, like Finite new, having drawn a
fair thaie of the salary for the term. In
the next contest in Flerida his opponent
get the certificate and the seat, and Fin
ley, hopeful as ever, contested for two
years and finally wen just about the
time Congress adjourned. New, again,
when his term is half ever, he gets his
seat, and altogether he seems te be a
lucky sort of a man.
Cooper can "call spirits from the
vasty deep," but will they come ? He
has summoned his state convention to
gether, but there seems te be some doubt
whether all of its members will reassem
ble. Lear intimates that he will be there
only in case he can have the pleasure of
holding Tem Marshall's bonnet, and D.
Stewart ' Elliett, of Bedford county
who was a delegate te the convention e
May 10, writes that he won't go te the
convention of June 21. He considers
the convention dead and Cooper without
power te reconvene it, and while he is in
favor of the regular ticket he fears it
will be hurt by this novel usurpation of
power contemplated by the state com
mittee and a defunct convention. This
raises an interesting question, which is
certain te further complicate the dis
orders from which the hopeful Republi
can chairman is new suffering.
Gen. Beaver advises the Columbia
girls and boys in particular, and the
American people in general, te cultivate
patience. This will be an excellent
trait of character for the general te de
velop in himself during the pending

Bkferi: Chairman Cooper assigns Blaine
te duty en the stump in this state, he will

Bisuer Gilmour, of Cleveland, has
written a pastoral, te be read in all the
churches of his diecese te-morrow, excom
municating all Catholic women who shall
hereafter attend meetings of the Ladies'
Laud League, or become members thereof.
The bishop says that organization is
" calculated te make brawling politicians
of women," and that membership therein
is "incompatible with womanly uiod uied
Oity." The New Yerk World thinks that when
Jehn Bright, in praise of American liter
ature, recommended Bancroft's history
aud Whitticr's poems te the people of
Birmingham in oue breath, he probably
did net knew that Mr. Whittier has been
an auti-slavery Quaker for mere than
forty years past, and that Mr. Bancroft
earned his distinction as a publie man by
his fidelity te the standard of what used
te be called the "pre-slavory Democracy"
of Massachusetts down te the outbreak of
the eivil war.
RrPRESKNTATIVE ROBINSON', of NOW
Yerk, has had a long interview with the
postmaster general, during which he urged
a Sunday delivery of the mails and the re
duction of letter postage te ene cent. The
postmaster general said the matter should
receive immodiate attention. The argu
ment for Sunday delivery is that "as the
mails are brought into the several offices
en Sunday, aud as the clerks are present
te receive them, it would be much mere
convenient and no mera expense for the
mails te be immediately distributed than
te nave them locked up for thirty or forty
hours, while it would add but little work
te the carriers."

THE VKSKltABLE ITALIAN HERO HEAD
Kail of a Kemaiitlc Career The New of
Tbe Day.
Giuseppi Garibaldi, whose death is an
nounced this morning, has filled a large
place in the history of Italy and of repub
lican movements in Europe for half a cen
tury, ne was born at Nice, of peer
parents, July 22, 1807 When quite
young he made voyages te Odessa and
Reme. Fifty years age, in 1832, he was
implicated with Mazzini in a conspiracy
against Charles Albert, king of Sardinia,
and was compelled te quit the coun
try. Twe years later he was condemned
te death, in his absence, en account of an
other revolutionary plot. He escaped te
Marseilles, France, and for some years be
came a "soldier of fortune," save that
for the most part he fought en the side of
freedom with little prospect of pecuniary
reward. He was for a short time in the
service of the Bey of Tunis, and after
wards ijught for the republic of Rie
Grande against Brazil. He was taken
prisoner by the Brazilians, and cruelly
treated for an attempted escape, and after
many stirring adventures returned te
Italy. In 1847, wheu Pius IP was elevat
ed te the papacy, he offered his services,
and was in Reme in the thick of the strug
gle when the French attacked that city.
He was closely pursued by the French and
Austrians after the French entered Reme,
but escaped, and became a manufacturer
of candles en Staten Island. He Iod a
reaming life for some years', settling for a
time en the isl.tud of Caprera, where he
earned en farming with great success.but
turned from it te organize a body of 17,
000 men, called Alpine Chasseurs, which
he commanded in the Sardinian service.
With this force he fought at Magenta,
Solferino and ether places. He landed at
Marsala in May, 18C0, aud took Palerme,
and carried en the struggle te Naples, from
which he drove King Francis II. It was
en the march te Gaeta that he saluted
Victer Emmanuel as "King of Italy."
lie could net get en well, however, with
his brother officers, and returned te his
home in Canferra without money or
honors. In 1862 he sought te foment
a revolution in Hungary, and engaged in
au ill-advised revolutionary attempt, in
which his troops were captured aud he
himself wounded. He had the best of
medical attendance, however, recovered,
and was pardoned ou account of his ser
vices in the causa of Italian independence.
Iu 18G4 Garibaldi visited England and was
received with great honors net only from
the people, but from the authorities of
Londen. . He stayed but a short time
and returned thence te Caprera. In 18(5G
Garibaldi was again iu active service,
and in 1807 organized an invasieu of the
States or the Church. He was captured
and returned te Caprera, where he
was guarded by a man-of-war te prevent
his escape. Eluding his guards, he reached
the mainland in October, 18G7, and de
feated the Pontifical troops at Mente Ro Re Ro
tendo, but was himself defeated by the
Chassepet rille, in the hands of French
troops, and this time was imprisoned in a
fortress. Here he claimed protection as an
Italian deputy aud an American citizen,
and was finally set at liberty. When he
heard of the dewnfull of the French em
pire he hastened te the new born republic,
and was given command of the regular
forces in the Vesges. But his troops
were of litle service and brought
discredit en their cause by their treat
ment of the clergy and inmates
of convents. In 1871 he was elected a
deputy te the National Assembly at Paris,
but resigned, "loving the republic but
hating the priesthood." He seen after
wards retumed te Caprera, aud siuce that
time has been engaged in the arts of peace,
being especially active in furthering a
scheme for changing the course of the river
Tiber and improving the Reman Cam
pagna. In 187-1 it was announced
that Garibaldi was in needy cir
cumstances, aud eflbrs of help wcre ex
tended te him from his admirers every
where. He declined, however, t) accept a
national gift, which was ettered te the
almost unanimously by a vote of him
chamber of Deputies. He served as a
member of the Italian Parliament iu 1875,
and in 1S7G accepted 100,000 lire, present
ed te him by the nation aud the king.

This morning three mere Arabs put in

number of papers and documents, all of
which were in the Arabic language, ex
cept one which was in English. It was
probably given them by some one in Phil
adelphia. It stated that they were from
Jerusalem. One is a baker and the ethers
hoi se trainers, and they are all peer and
destitute, but willing te work. They
spoke te the mayor and ethers in their
own language, but no one was able te un
derstand them. They seemed te be in
great distress, and while in the station
house ene of them took a rope and, plao plae
ing it around his neck, drew it tightly as
if te show what he intended te de. After
tbe hearing the mayor took them te his
office where he gave them some money
and wrote them a paper te assist them in
procuring work. -They left the office iu a
geed humor and secured mere money from
ether persons, after which they went out

Second Day's Meeting of the Mlniaterluin
l'regrees et Church Werk.
The morning session et the Lutheran
ministcrium in Philadelphia yesterday was
largely occupied in the consideration of
changes iu beneficiary education. The
bed' at present donates money te needy
students preparing for the ministry, and
the executive coramittce recommended
in its report that this gift should
take the form of a lean without interest.
It was further suggested that the commit
tee be giveu power te remit the lean for
cause, and require students who abandon
the service of the church te repay the lean
with interest. There was decided opposi
tion among many members te exacting a
return of the money, as se many ministers
barely received salary sufficient te support
their families. The committce explained
thai it was only intended te place a moral
obligation upon the students te repay the
lean if they could afford it, aud in this
shape the lccummendatiens were adopted
by a vote et 72 te 48.
The officers elected for the ensuing year
are : President, Rev. A J. Seirs, I). D.;
English secretary, Rev. M. C. Herinc ;

GENEKAL BEAVEK IN COLUMBIA.
Ue Makes a Speech Before the Dish Scheel
Graduates, and Tells Theui What Is
the Musing Link In the
American Character.
General Beaver went te Columbia yes
terday afternoon, where he was announced
te deliver the address before the graduat
ing class of the high school. He was the
guest of Wm. B. Given, esq., a leading
Democrat of the place, and during the
afternoon there were a geed many people
who called around te Mr. Given's office te
meet the distinguished stranger. He
drove ever the town, and ameug the
places visited was the grave of Gen. Welsh,
who was Beaver's commander at one time
during the war. He expressed himself as
well pleased with what he saw and the
people he met, but there was no political
significance extracted from the visitation,
as Democrats and Republicans alike called
te pay their respects.
In the evening the opera heuse was
crowded from pit te dome. Every scat in
the auditorium and gallery was occupied
aud a large number of parsons wcre stand
ing in the aisles. The graduates aud
teachers of the schel, beard of directors
aud orators of the cvening,toek scats upon
the stage, amid a round of applause, and
about eight o'clock the exercises were
opened with music by the Arien orchestra,
after which Rev. it. W. Humphriss offered
prayer, and then Mr. J. A. Meyer.0, pre
sident of the school beard, introduced the
orator of the evening Gen. James A. Bea
ver, of Bellefente.
General Beaver began by saying he fult
a peculiar charm iu this visit te Columbia.
He had been cemniunyig with the dead
and with dead men's thoughts as he steed
by dead men's ashes. Referring evidently
te his visit te Gen. Welsh's grave, he said
he felt the thoughts of twenty years age
come surging back upon him aud iu fancy
he heard the prattle of his old command
er's little children, new grown te vigorous
maturity, aud whose letters te their father
during the war had given such a chaim te
the olden time.
True scionce, said the orator, rides
safely in the quiet harbor of well-defined
and well-matured thoughts, auchercd as
it is te the verity of everlasting fact. But
there is a false science of which we have
heard much, whose votaries are tilled with
doubt and are the followers of men them
selves diiven by the wind and tossed by
the events of days geno by ; for years thej
have been endeavoring te find a "missing
link" tl'.at should bind men te a dead
past and ally them te an order devoid
of higher life. It was net the
speaker's intention te discuss this missing
link which se-called philosophers are
striving fruitlessly te find, but te speak
of the link that is wantiug in American
character. What he meant by this term
was net the character of individuals but
that character common te the mass of the
people of this country. We have a na
tional character made up of clearly defined
elements, cosmopolitan in their nature,
but nevertheless clearly-drawn and dis
tinct qualities. The first clement te
engagd our attention in an examination of
the American character is that of Pluck
It makes itself evident en every baud iu
the courage with which our people at
tempt great achievements and enterprises
te the execution of which there are ap
parently insuperable barriers. A practical
aud notable example of this trait of the
national character was presented in the
civil war, which,onbeth sides of the strug
gle, furnished an exhibition of pluck and
ceurage never before equaled and in which
Americans steed arrayed against Ameri
can?. Porscverance is uuotl.e.- admirable trait
in the characteristics of our people, and is
strikingly exemplified in the advances we
have made and are making in manufac
tures, commerce and science. Americans
net only have the pluck te go at a thing,
but they possess also the capacity of carry
ing it through, sticking te it until they
have beaten down the obstacles that rise
te deter thorn. The Amcricaus are a
cheerful race. They believe in looking en
the bright side of things aud are always in
a geed humor. The clement of Charity
stands out conspicuously in American
character ; net merely that which gives
alms te a beggar and moves a man te be
stew a portion of his world's goods en
theso who have been less favored than
themselves there is indeed a vast degree
of this impulse in the American heart but
that ether charity that tliiuketh no evil is
net wanting in the character of our peo
ple. Americans believe in fair play, and a
very pleasing and admirable trait in their
composition is their unwillingness te be be
eove a thing that is net creditable until
the truth of it has been proveu.
What then is wanting ? Where is the
missing link ? Foreigners fail te portray
the American character in its true light,
and writers like Dickens have distorted
and raisrepiescntcd it. What we need te
get from the Germans in addition te some
of the ether excellent traits they have
given us and that enter se largely into our
national character is the p.iticucis te
wait. Pluck aud perseverance we
have in abundant measure, but we are
always iu tee much of a hurry for results.
Wc sec examples of this in every phase of
our national life. Take our system of
education it is forced and unnatural.
Children arc sent te school and hurried
through their studies at a killing paceaud
the result is that they are turned out
stunted and undersized ; they are net
physically equipped for the battle of life.
The mind is cultivated at the expense of
the body in disregard of the old saw
"mens nana in mtne corperc." Let the
bodies be the first consideration. The
cultivation of the mind should come
after the physical structure has
been assured. The same tiait of
unreasonable impatience is witnessed iu
ether aspects. We can't even brook
waiting the payment of our national debt,
but go plunging along paying it oil at au
enormous rate of speed,, and the secretary
of the treasury who can't show a decrease
of anywhere from ten te twenty-five mill
ions a month is apt te hear the query of
the peeple who want te knew the reason
why. By such a course we rob our chil
dren of a glory that rightfully belongs te
them. By our unreasoning haste we are
only depriving them of an educating in
iluence which would teach them te prize
thcir-liberty, wen by the expenditure of
se many millions of troasure and vast
sacrifice of human life, mero than they
otherwise could.
The men of America have no time fin
ally thing but money-making. They must
get rich and in a hurry. They can't sleep,
they can't eat, they can't rest ; they can
de nothing but rush ahead under full
pressure all the time ; and the result is
painfully apparent in the softening of
brain and mental disturbances that are
sending such a number of these pushing
go-ahead persons te lunatic asylums, hos
pitals and untimely graves.
Where's the remedy? Yeu must be
gin iu the nursery ; you must take care
te see that the body is net being neglected
while the mind is being trained. Carry
the same idea into the school room and
every ether phase of life, and with this
fatal disposition te hurry conquered and
controlled, and the quality of patience
acquired, then will the missing link be
found and the national character rounded
te the fair proportions that it only lacks
through this cause.
General Beaver spoke for a little Ie-s
than ene hour, and was applauded at iu
tervals during the delivery. The oration
was by no means conspicuous, either for
matter or composition ; the sentiments
were for the most part trite and well
worn, aud neither in literary merit nor
the usual qualities that are went te char
acterize au address of this kind could the
oration be considered up te the mark that
had been reasonably set for ene of Gen.
Beaver's distinguished reputation as an
orator. The whole thiug was thiu aud con
veyed the impression that the speaker
was attempting te spread a very
small quantity of material ever a
gieat deal of ground ; it was reanifcstly
wauting in continuity and complete
ness, whilst the net infrequent grammati
cal slips in the general's remarks scut a
perceptible quiver through the sweet girl
graduates seated behind him. Gen. Beaver
was presented with a handseme basket of
llewers.
After the orchestra had played another
selection Wm. B. Given, esq., delivered
an addrcs3,his subject being "Daily Life,"
directed te showing the influence of
what are deemed ordinary occurrences
upon the events of the world.
The diplomas wcre then presented te
the graduates, who came forward as their
names were called and received the cov
eted document from the hands of Prof.
B. G. Ames. Each graduate was loudly
applauded aud all were very generously
rewaidcd with tleral gilts.
