The llepublicnn senators concluded net te play ent the game which Cooper nnd Quay set up for them. Thcsotwe leadcra went te Washington te set up another gaine with Arthur, which Lee and Stewart, representing the Inde pendents, were te join lu. Tliore wns n mlscnrrlnge here, because the Independ ent senators were " unavoidably " nb- Bent. Messrs. Cooper and Quay should net underlnke te arrange tee many things at once. Their undertaking te persuade the Republican legislators at Harrlsburg te forego any part of tliclr per ilfcm was sufficiently arduous te demand their personal attention, if the legislators aforesaid could only have felt Bure that they could play the game without losing anything by it they would have dene it cheerfully. They took te it very lovingly In the Scnate at first, and the committee reported the bill which Senater Mylln says was set up in 1'hiladelphia. The idea was te put the senators en record as demanding pay ment only for their days of actual mt vice : and te let the members of the IIouse take as much as they pleased But when the Democratic IIouse threat. eaed te display as much virtuous self, renunciation as the senators, the Repub lican legislators became suddenly persuaded that it would be very foolish notte take all the compensation the law allows them. Se tiie senators turned upon the bill that had been prepared for them te swallow, and appropriated In a brief paragraph enough money te pay tha legislators for every day of the st sslen. The lovely encomiums which have iteen passed upon tlis senators in the'.r party organs new need revision. It is deflnite ly determined that they arc as fend of ten dollars a day as the Democrats. There has been a general suspicion ntleat which we new knew lias dene the He publlcau legislators no injustice, that the extra session would have come te conclusion long age if the ten dollars a day had net bsen as scductive te the Republican as te the Democratic legis lators. Honors are very easily between them en this rcore. The Democrats l.ad te bear in the late canvass the burthen of the ten dollars nday, because the Republican Senate pretended that it wanted te adjourn, when it did net burn te de anything of thekind. It found it very profitable te stay in session when it met for a few minutes but twice a week, at ten dollars a day for every day It would liave been very well if the pre tence of net wanting the money could have been kept up, until the Democratic Heuse forced them te take It ; but it is amusing te see iiew quickly it was drop pad, when there came a fear that the Democratic Heuse would net de .no thing of the kind. When the Legislature gets through with Its appropriations the governor will take a hand in tl.e gan.e Theie seems te be a suspicion that the ten dollars n day men will need te recruit their nurabars up te two-thirds te get away with their money under the gov ernor's objectieu. One thing is plain, uud that Is that the money has net been earned by the majority of the lrgis lrgis ters. They had a plain duty In perform which could have been done m ten das. It was net done. The ques tion is whether the majority should be paid te prevent injustice being denn te the minority. We de net think that the Republican legislators liave earned any compensation; and there is a strong Hessian contingent among the Demo cratic legislators, who liave been sitting only for their money, who de net do de serve te get what they liave been after A bill appropriating ten dollars a day for every day of the session should net be passed. We are persuaded that t he present Legislature can mt determine what it lias really earned. It had better adjourn without an appropriation bill and leave the adjudication of the matter te the next Legislature. The 91 nil for I'rcsldcut. Mr. Watterson, of the "Louisville Courier Journal, thinks that .McDonald is just the man for president ; and we are quite lu 8) mpatliy with him in ene wasen that he gives for his choice. " He is net a brilliant man " he aajs. " If he was, 1 for ene would oppose his nomination. We de net want a biilli.uit man in the White IIouse. We want a man of sound Benae and deliberation, for if we are te ceme Inte power we shall need te go ex ceedingly slew." Jii3t se. Brilliant men lire tee likely te be erratic. We de net want any 2:10 rast and vie eus heises In the presidential traces, but steady, strong pulllug animals that will get home every time with their cargo un spilled. When a party leeks about for a presidential candidate tt should examine with care the record or these who nre trotted out for inspection, a'ud should leaolutely leject all who have at any tlme pulled wrong. There Is Uaynrd, for instance, who has an excel lent record in general, but who went astray en the electoral commission bus! ness, which wns such a great misstep that we would fear te fully trust him in a position where such political mistakes would be very disastrous te the party and the country. There wns one man In the Senatethen who went stinlght, Eaten ; uud he has never uone wrong en any relltlcnl question within our knowledge, though lie has been in political harness through n long life. That man la very ellgible for a presi dential nomination. McDonald may le, tee, though he has net been us soverely tried. Mr. Wuttersen saya that he is " calm, trained mid true ;" and that is whatn president should be. We are Bomewliat timid, though, about Western training, which Mr. Watterson thinks la the very best klud. He saya that Me Donald, "born lu Ohie and reared lu Indiana, lias grown up with the great West and represent Ita robust, home, upun nsplnitleus, nt the sawe tlme thnt Le Is n type of the better and manlier civilization of that great empire which Ilea en the ether aide of the Alleghenlea andRluoRUlge." That Is nil very pretty ; "robust and homespun aspirations" are geed; we llke them : but we lmve never mulct- steed them te be particularly typical of Western civilization, wuicu is miner suspected of tinsel begulleuicnt, Green back adulation, speculative addiction and visionary tendency generally- Te be born in cjhle Is net se much ei a Democratic as a Republican rccemtneti datien te high political honors ; and we think we hnve heard of another man of Ohie, who is entitled te the Democratic palm, it Ohie Is le get It, and whose name 13 Thurmnn-the noblest Reman of them all. When we ceme te Ind aua, we come te another presidential candidate, like Mr. McDonald in net being brilliant. If Gov. Hendricks will let McDonald liave the Indiana delega tion, and the convention agrees that the true tpe of presidential manliness is te be sought across the Alleghenlcs and the lllue Ridge, the Ohie and the Miami, and en the hither side of the Mississippi, McDonald will de very well for us. Tint Egyptian army in Soudan, under the English General Hicks, lias been annihilated by the overwhelming num bers of the followers of El M.vlidi, the false prophet, after a valiant defense, lasting three dajs. The followers of El Mahdt are net an army ; they are a people, permeated with the wild religious fauatieism which brought the same races te the feet of Mahomet when lie came from his austere seclusion In the lonely cave lu Mt. Hara, as a prophet and teacher from Allah. Since the dajs when the sacred flresef tiie Parsees.wershlppcd as the gift of the great Zoreaster, were extinguished and the imperial palace at Mecca swaed like a reed before the wind from the terrible recklngs of a mighty earthquake, and ether preligies caused the devout worshipper of the East te call upon Allah for protection, because he knew net thnt these unnatural things were the heralds which proclaimed the birtli of Mahomet, down until to day n like fanatic zealousness and le iigieus sophistry has characterized these desert races. And when live years age there came from the banks of the White 2s lie " a man of noble bearing, exactly forty years of age," and " aunrm longer than the ether,'' as the prophesy te tin' faithful predicted, thousands (locked te the green standard of the sheik and swore allegiance te him. With efforts consonant in nature ami spirit te these of Mahomet, El Mahdi has led his hordes ever the burning plains of the Xumidt.ui desert into the dense feres'.s of Soudan, and with varied success has retained his precarious leadership, until new his power, for a time, is assured. I r licgitis te leek as though Autumn m its closing had borrowed a few days from soft, sensuous spring. It would liave been almost better for tbe Democrats te liave lest control of Cougrefs if sectionalism is te be dragged mte the speakership contest.

Is tbe false prophet new stronger among the Arabs n Will the wave of revelt which was nprend from the sleix of El Olield te Ceral Island, Suaklin, Hew into the Delta of the Xile ' The government Is already preparing for these contingencies. A cabinet council was held te day. The general clamor w.ir that tioneral Hicks must be aseuged. The forces of El Mahdi comprised, it is estimated, 300,000 men, and Included UervishcR, lJedeums, Mulatteesand Regu lar.

The army of Hicks Pasha, which early in the btltle wai divided into two bodies, va subseiiucntly teunitcd and formed into a sqtiaru. which tbe forces of the false prophet broke after three I'ays' deporate fighting. The Atu- corresjioudent says Hicks P.iHh.i had divided his arm, sending half te El Obicd te demand the surrender of that pi tec. He awaited the arrival of the Madhi.whe was aiivauclug (rem the soutu seutu cast. The Madhi. however, met the half of Hick Pasha's army, advancing te El Obii'd, nmi attacked it. Hearing the tir ing, Hi-ksP.ishncanie up with hl whole force an I formed a sqmre. The Mahdi brought up fresh regulars, who, it is sup posed, were the soldiers who wcre cap tuicd when El Obied fell, and who ncn-ed te take sers Ice under the Madhi. These numbered thrce thousand. Thefquare of Hicks Pasha's men was then brekcu, and his army was anuihihted. A council of mlnistcni has been held, and it has been decided te concentrate at KuartJiim what 1-gypthn troops remain at Iuen, OeUi and ether places in the S tudau. The force uudcr Hicks Pasha com prised 10,50i men. He had with him ten British officers. Mr. O'Douevan, of the Londen Aii'.v Xtir, and au artist cou ceu uecfcd with 'a German illustrated p.icr, aUe accompanied his army.

When Hicks Pasha reached Xaraua, uear the Obid Hills, he divided his army into two parts, sending ene half te demaud the siirrcader of the fortress. El Mahdi, ad vancing from the southeast, met this por tion and sent lerward dervishes, saying : 'We, like you, you are Mussulmaus. Why fight ' Surrender te the derv isliM." They wcre received with a volley, and fighting then began. Hearing the tiring, General Hicks eime up, and his whole force formed a cquare. Tne Arabs attacked with reckless valor, tl e camels stamped, and confusion was caused among the camp follewors, who numbered 'J, 000 The Egyptians fought well, aud at oveu ing the Mahdi fell back. Xext day he found allies m the soldiers captured at El Obeid. The battle racd all day. On the third morning the square was breken and General Hicks' ferce was annihilated.

Throughout the Soudan, he said, much power was exercised by religious chiefs and dervish.-, who could be readily con trolled by conciliatory measures aud the allowance of a mii.i'1 stipend, a nractlce which had been unwisely discontinued. The uullercrs by this discontinuation tlnew in their I t with the hlave dealers, honce the present misiortune, which might liave been avoided if the railway from Makim te lierbrr, en the Xile, had been completed te the Soudan. The abandon ment ei that scheme, he thought, was false economy. He attributed te defeat of Hicks Pacha te the constitution of his ferce. Egyptian Eeidieis, 'ie said, needed, mero than ethor soldiers, a flag, military music and all the oclatefwar. Without these they could net aud would net fight. The army in cluded Arabi Pacha's disbanded seldiers, who had been sent up like malef icters. Hew could Hicks Pni'ha, he asked, t'ght with such material. The ex kedive wan net surprised at the calamity. He would net advise the sending ui j.iikiisu troops te me seuu.in, as such a ceurse might invelve greater evils. J'he llrltlMi Win net ivithilriiw.

It is rumored that he had lust icoelved about $50,000 from Texas lit pivment of sales niade en the ranch. The bankers say that no money was deposited with them by Mr. Crouch nnd It Is presumed the meney referred te was in Mr. Croueh's possession. Mr. Policy was stepping nt Mr. Crouch's place, having just oemo from Texas with a large amount of meney for the purpese of buying blooded stock. The prevailing theory Is thnt Mr. Pelloy was (allowed from Tex.is by the murderer or niurdcrers for the purjiose of robbery. The house was thoroughly rausaeked and everything of valtte carried away. A young girl, an adopted daughter of the bites, and au eighteen ear old negre, w he wcre sleeping in apartments up stairs, say they heard no firing, although, the negre says he heard a thumping neise about the tniddle et the night and thought it wns caused by n floreo wind which was blowing nt the time. Mrs. Whlte was ex pected te beceme a mother shortly. There is iutense oxeitouicnt nnd hundreds or per sons have tlccked te the scene of the mur der. Mr. Crench slept 111 an alceve opening into the sitting room, near the front part of the hotise. His daughter and her bus band oceuplcd front bed room, while auethcr bed room, opening into the parlct was occupied by Mr. Policy. Mr. Crouch was lylug with his face te the wall and had a bullet hole in the left side of his head, two I110I103 back of the ear, the ball having passed through the brain and caused in stant death. Mr. White had been shot twioe, ene ball euterimg the right side of the neck thtee inches belew the ear, sev eriug au artery, and the ether entering the temple near the right eye. He was dis covered lying en Ins back, as if peacefully sleeping. His wife had been shot six times and judging by tbe position of lier arms and her disordered clothing had made n hard struggle for life. She bad two balls through the right arm, ene through the left, ene through the right breast, which untered the lungs, ene through the chin and neck ami oue through the left wrist. Sir. Pelloy was shot twice, ene ball entering the right ear aud passing directly Inte the brain and the ether pis.-, ing through the chest from the right side. In his case there wis no Indication of a struggle.
