Mr. Hamilton, arming the half dozen pletures'ix
posed, does most credit to his '3l! a pOn r d genius
in the larger of them ; he cannot Stretch
wings in a cage.
Let TIEI stand with our backs to his " Atlantic
City," the first In the catshigue, which does its
author scant justice, and besides is most injuri
ously affected by the water and skies of the Dan
bigny and Troyon 'beside It; let us plant our
backs, If you please„against this too, too solid
Orpiment, and lOok • across' the, room ,Into that
world of plunging waters which Dickens created
first in words and Hamilton has condensed into
reality. There, in a great golden square, is' the
very orgie of self-conscious melodrama; such
a picture should be framed in the sodden, ship
wrecked spars they find on angry beaches, and
which never dry, 'so sea• changed they are with
the water.
Having used the word melodrama, we may
pause to explain that we consider our term the
true definition of Dickens's often-vaunted dace
o hie master-work; and Hamilton, launch
ing into this subject with a keen enjoyment of the
agony, outdoes the romancer in the voluptuous
ness of terror. "I never knew before," says one
of Reade's characters, "how delightful danger
wits !" Hamilton's "David Copperfield" repre
sents the,"green hill-sides of water" which beat
the life out of both the lovers of "little Etn'ly."
A dead sailor, in lie picture, lies flattened on the
steep beach, but a great, grovelling wave, of a,
strimgtb to 'exCavate the whole edge of the coast,
dra*iblin imperiously out to sea again—a stren
uous Wave; s'emi'solid - with the sand beaten into
it,' a hybrid Monster, half sea and half shore, hal
liquid and half flint, sucking out the profile of the
beach, with something like animal hunger, and
minglilfg the carrion that was once a man
into, the huge quarry on which' it has
gorged itself. Meanwhile, a hurrying group,
half seen ' through the solid wall of spray,
ftutter out from the left, headed by the dashing
figure of Ham Peggptty, who flies to sea, whore
a desperate :figure is seen lashed to a leaping spar'.
The ocean will conquer, the hero will die; and
them on the shore, "on that part of it where she
and I had looked for shells, two children—on
that part of it where some fragments of the old
boat had been scattered by, the wind—among the
ruins of the home he had wronged"—the villain
will wash to land, and lie "with hie head 'upon
his arm, sal . had often seen him lie at school."
Hamilton is obliged to indicate the irresistible
and unrepenting character of the ocean; he must
declare, through its proper lips, that the sally
will not be successful, and that the battling vil
lain will not be saved. He must.paint the pre
sent instant and foreshadow the future one:
with this intention he purposely makes the
human figures a great deal too small, and depicts
such cataract-seas as never rolled out of any
other horizon than a mental one, lifting and
"looking oveNne another," to use the words of
the text, and with every advance indicating more
prodigious judgments to come.
A commonplace man would have little success
in representing such an ocean of nightmare, the
"sea of dreams." It is a situation where ordi
nary nice, of imitation are at fault, for an artist
cannot often stand drawing the curves of storm
waves. Yet only one or two painters,
and those of a single nation, have sue
feed better in analyzing the forms of
water precipitated on a windy coast, when
"Es brie& sick die Wells nzit Micht, mit Micht.'
There is no way to prosper, in a case like this,
but to deliver the whole soul over to the species
or possession which comes with a grand idea—
and then arrive all the perils of bathos and anti
climax, and whatever chances can compromise
the man who leans across the limit of self-control.
These aro the moments which drain off the strong
men from the mass of poetasters. To recognize
be port and presence and neighborhood of an
athlete, yon should stand an hour before this
s cene of formidahlo faery, and try to comprehend
those wide sands devoured by the waves, those
titanic waves caught by the hurricane and
spun into the clouds, and those clouds
built like forts of iron
.along the opaque
horizon.
The "Monitor Fleet" (89), is intended to de
velop in the spectator another quality of terror •
It is the terror of sullen, boding preparation.
The whole scene dresses itself close and dense
like a warrior arming for the final day's conflict.
The shore is a dead flat; but the ribs of a man o
war,: the . worsted of some previous encounter
roll up from the sand. The lines of the advancing
waves, stretching tense quite across the picture,
come up as'sharp as razors, one behind another,
and bite' upon
,the strand like the teeth, file be
hind file,of a marine monster. The flattened water
growing darker and darker toward the distance
at length embraces the deep-planted hulls of the
monitor4leet, whose squat towers, low, black and
venomous, fringe the horizon with a horrible
battlement. So much say the
.solid objects repre
sented; but where the medium exhales and grows
lees dense—where the ocean gives off its cloud;
and the steam-fort its black plume of smoke; and
the sunset its darting shaftis of light, the man
sion grows more distinct. The gathering
thunders ascend iu strange, concentrating spirals
of lurid cloud, that seem as if in another
instant they would explode. To par
allel these, and mingle with them,
wind upwards the wreaths of fetid smoke, like
the steam that coils out, in Bunyan, from the
by-way to hell. The nitrous thunders of earth
have come to comprehend the purpose of the
storm, and twist up under, and bear the tempest
on their sooty wings,and caress and twist around
the vapors like assistant gnomes. A sinister par
allelism, a boding sympathy, has been estate
Relied, in WIS. great pairiter's imagination, be
tween the respiration of the monitors and the
breath of the storm. Then, from the vaporous
corner where he sinks, the sun, still in sympathy
and still traveling with the tempests and the en
gines, opens his red hand and darts his upright
lighttings across the sky. In the opposite part
of the heavens the blue is still undisturbed, and
the crescent moon, indicated with a touch, sends
a drop or two of helpless, milky light down to
the kutuld sands.
The remaining subjects exposed by Mr. Hamil
ton Ibis year are smaller and perhaps in every
instance less interesting, than those we have at
some length described. The moonlight sky in
"Belmont" (98) is completely' wanting in depth:
as the perpendicular and horizontal lines of radi
ation wheel across it from the moon in the centre,
it looks as brad as the top of a hat, or like the
immense and very bcamy discs which the makers
of saws expose at industrial fairs. In front of
this Sky of burnished metal, like profiles cut. out
in pasteboard, rise the Lombardy poplars, the
balustrade with Lorenzo and Jessica, and
the moonlight beating on • the flat Venetian
lagoons. Mr. Hamilton, who has done so many
better thir ,, s, fad who reveals himself at tills
same er:l,lli (ion hi exposures which do him such
lofty erilit. may deliver this infelicitous canvas
to the critics. thl "Lowering Weather" (1:;5),
has the r.,11111 , :, fcalt, of opicity, which vo, were
troubled with in the Atlantic City ;""liiit' being
more mercifully hung, out of the dissolving,
gastric of the subtle art of France, it
looks better. iris .• Woods in Winter" (249), is
a small, slight short. hardly worth exposing, but
a happy (Bough indtc,„tion of some effect he has
obeprvt d among the leaileths groves - of his pretty
Fraoktord.
But these are hardly the- measurable effort of
kis Mind. In his pair of tragic nietures—in the
sittirstions where be has grappled moat hotly with
his ido, and forced' from it the honey of
thi Hebrew riddle—he has proved himself to be
etili at the lcVel of his best. .As the only Amerl
can painter who thoroughly succeeds in im
buing landscapes with the deeper . sentiments of
drama, the compositions we have analyzed
vindicate his fame, and maintain it in its unique
altitude.
mr 0 N CHESTS IN
PE ILO.
We gave last month an extract or two from
Hon. E. G. Splices narrative of explorations in
the Lake Titicaca - region, the progress of
which forms the chief attraction. of Ibirper's
Monthly.
The basin in which the rains of Tialmanaco arc
found. Is one of those -broad depressions in the
:earth's
,surface, encircled by hills, provided with
reservoirs lind fluvial systems detached from thtf
external water-sheds, and deprived of outlets to
the sea, which exist in two other places in, this.
lieniliphere,viz., in Central America and
The Titicaca basin may be estimated at 600 or 700
miles in length, and about 200 in breadth, givicg
it an art a sonic three , times that of the State of
New York. Almost in the centre of this great
bowl lie the ruins of Tialuana co, which have been
regarded, by all students of American antiquities,
as in many respects the most interesting and lin
portant,and at the same time most enigmatical of
any on the -continent. Unique, yet perfect In
type ; and harmonious in style, they appear to be
the work of a people who were thorough mas
ters of
,an architecture - which had no infancy,
passed through no period of growth, and of
which we find no other examples. Tradition,
which mumbles more or less intelligibly of the
origin of many other American monuments, is
dumb concerning these. The wandering In
dians told the first Spaniards that "they ex
isted before the sun shone in the heavens,''
that they were raised by giants, or that they
were the remains of an impious people whom an
angry Deity had converted into stone because
they refused hospitality to his vicegerent and
messenger.
Mr. Squier arrived in this place with a single
assistant (an amateur draughtsman), and the
fellows who conducted his mules. His photo
grapher Laving died, he promptly taught himself
the art. -
The ruins consist of structures, foundations
&c., arbitrarily named the Fortress, the Palace:
and the Temple, whose component stones, often
separated and pilfered from, remain in sufficient
quantity to give an estimate of the primeval
architecture.
"Remove the superstructures of the best built
edifices of our cities," says Mr. Squier, "and few,
if any, would expose foundations lai with equal
care, and none stones cut with such accuracy, or
so admirably fittedtogether. And I may say,
once for all, carefully weighing my words; that
in no part of the world have I seen stories cut
with such mathematical-precision and admirable
skill as in Peru, and in no . part of Peru are there
any to surpass those which are scattered over the
Plain of Tiahuanaco."
From the author's absorbing,. account and in . -
telligent speculations, we have space to extract
only the following, description of a
,very singular
monolipie doorway:
"The most remarkable monument in Tiahutur
ace, as already intimated, is the great monolithic
gateway. It now stands erect, and is described
as being in that position by every traveler except
D'Orbigny, who 'visited the ruins in 1833, and
who says it had then fallen down. Of this unique
monument I took two photographs, of some in
terest to me as the first it was ever my fortune to
be called ou to take. It has been broken, the
natives say by lightning ; the fracture extended
from the upper right-hand angle of the opening,
so that the two parts'lap by each other slightly,
making the aides of the doorway incline toward
each other ; whereas they are, or were, .
perfectly vertical and parallel—a distin
guishing feature in all of the door
ways and sculptures of Thibuanaco. This •
monolith has attracted tso much attention, and '
the drawings that have been given of it haYe been
BO exceeding erroneous, that have sought to re
produce its features with the greatest care, using
the line, the Pencil. the photograph, and the
cartridge•paper mould.
"We must imagine first a block of stone,some
what broken and defaced on its edges, but orig- •
inally cut with precision, 13 feet 5 inches long,
7 feet 2 inches high above ground, and 18
inches thick. Through its centre is cut a
doorway, 4 feet 6 inches high, and 2 feet 9
inches wide. Above this doorway, and as it
now stands on its southeast side or front, are
four lines of seulpture in low relief, like the
Egyptian plain sculptures, and a central fig
ure, immediately over the doorway, sculptured
in high relief. On the reverse we find the door
way Surrounded by friezes or cornices, and above
it on each *side two small niches,•below which,
also on either side, is a single larger niche. The
stone itself' is a dark and exceedingly hard tra
chyle. It is faced with a precision that no.skill
can excel; its lines are perfectly drawn, and its
right angles turned with an accuracy that the
most careful geometer could. not surpass.
Barring some injuries and defacements and
some slight damages by weather, I do not believe
there exists a better piece of stone cutting, the
material considered, on this or the other cond. 7-
nent. The front, especially the part covered by
sculpture, has a line finish, es near a true polish
as trychate can be made to bear.
"The lower line of sculpture is i inches
broad, and is unbroken, the three above it are 8
inches high, cut up in car/ouches or squares of
equal width, but interrupted in the centre, im
mediately over the doorway,by the figure in high
relief, to which I have alluded. This figure, with
ifs ornaments,covers a space of 32 by 21, 3 ' inches.
'I here are consequently three ranges or tiers of
squares on each side of this figure, 8 in each
range, or4B in all.
"The figures presented in these squares have
human bodies, feet and hands ; each holds a seep
tre • they are winged ; but the upper and lower
series have human heads wearing crowns, repre
sented in profile, while the heads of the sixteen
figures in the line between them have the heade of
condors. The central and principal figure is an
gularly but boldly cut, in a style palpably Con
ventional. Its head is surrounded by a series of
what may be called rays each terminating in a
circle, the head of the coddor, or that of a tiger,
all conventionally but forcibly treated. In each
hand he grasps two staves or sceptres of equal
length With Lis body.
"The radiations from the head, which I have
called rays, for want of a better terni, scorn to
have the same action. An ornamented girdle
surrounds.the waist of thia'prinelpal figure, from
Which depends a double fringe. It stands upon
a kind of base or series of figures approaching
nearest in character to the architectural orna
ment called grecques; each extremity of which,
however, terminates in the crowned heads of the
tiger or the condor. The face has been some
what mutilated, but shows some peculiar figures
extending from the eyes diagonally across the
cheeks, terminating also in the heads of the ani
mals just named.
`'The winged human-beaded and condor
headed figures in the three lines of squares are re
presented kneeling on ono knee, with their faces
turned to the great central figure, as if in adore
, lion, and each one holds before him a staff or
sceptre. The sceptres of the figures in the two
upper rows are bifurcate, and correspond exactly
with the sceptre iu the left hand of the central
figure, while the sceptres of the lower tier cor
re.pond with that reuresented in his right hand.
The relief of all these figure is scarcely over
tae-rtsths of an inch; their minor features
are indicated by very delicate lines, slightly
ricised, which form subordinate figures,
representing the heads of condors, tigers and
serpents. Moat of us have seen pictures and
portraits or non and animals, which under close
attsrition.reeolve themselves into representatives
of a hundred (Ayer things, but which are so art
- fully arranged as to produce a siuglq broad effect.
No with these 'winged figures. Every part, the
limbs, the garb, all separate themselves into
Miniatures of the symbols that run through
the sculptures on this singular monument.
"The fourth or lower row of sculpture differs
' entirety . from the rows above it.
It consists of repetitions—seventeen in ail
--;smaller and in low relief, of the h ea d o f th e
great central , figure, surrounded by correspond
ing rays, terminating, in Idia . mannsr with the

heads of animals. These are arranged alternately
the top and bottom of the line of sculpture,
within . 'the zigzags or' •greeques, and,
every angle terminates in the head of a condor.
It is impbssible to describe this arrangement of
figures and ornament, and . I should require a
drawing to make what I have said intelligible.
"These are the onl seniotorei; on the face of
the great monolith ofTiahnanaco. -I shall not
tan nips to explain their significance. D'Or
bigry finds in the winged figures With human
brads, symbols or representations of conquered
chiefs, coming to pay their .homage to the ruler
who had his capital in Tiabuanaco, and who, as
the founder of Sun worship and the bead of rc
ligion as of the state, was invested with divine
al tributes as well as with the insigniA of power.
The figures with condors' heads, the same fan
ciful philosopher 'supposes, may represent the
chiefs of tribes 'who bad not yet fully ac
cepled eivilization,ond were therefore represented
without the human profile, as an indication of
their Unhappy and undeveloped atm ie. By . parity
of interpretation we may take it that theeighteen
unfinished figures were those oras many chief
tains as the ruler of Tiahnanaco had it iu his
mind to reduce, and of which, happily, just two
thirds had claims to be regarded as civilized, and
when absorbed, ta be perpetuated with human
heads and not with those of condors.
"another French writer, M. Angrand, finds a
coincidence between these • sculptures and those
of Central America and Mexico, flaying - cor
responding mythological and symbolical signifi
cance, thus establishing identity of origin and in
timate relationship between the builders of Tin
huartneo and those of Palenque, Ocosingo and
Xochlealco.
- .
"Leibnitz tells us that nothing exists without
a cause; and it is not to be supposed that the
sculptures under notice were made without a
motive. .They are probably symbolical, but with
no knowledge of the religious ideas and concep
tions of the ancient people whose remains they
are, it Is presumptuous to attempt to interpret
them. Nowhere else in Peru, or within the
whole extent of the Inca empire, do we find any
similar sculptures; and they are, as regards Inca
art, quite as unique in Peru as they would be in
Boston Common or the Central Park "
In considering the elaborate system of ruins
from which we have selected a single stone, Mr.
Squier remarks :
"We can hardly conceive of remains so exten
sive as those of Tiahuanaco, except as indices of
a large population; and as evidences of the pre
vious existence on or near the spot of a consider
able city. But we find nowhere in the vicinity
au) Madded traces of ancient habitations, such •
as abound elsewhere in Peru, in connection with
most public edifices. Again,the region around is
cold, and for the most part arid and barren.
Elevated 13,000 feet above the sea, no cereals
grow except barley, which often fails to mature,
and seldom if. ever so perfects itself as to be
aysilabln for seed. The maize is dwarf and
scant, and uncertain in yield, and the bitter po
tato and quinua constitute almost the sole articles
of food for the pinched and impoverished inhabi
tants. This is net, prima
. facie, a region for
nurturing or sustaining a large population,
and certainly not one wherein we should expect
to find a capital. Tiahuanaco may have been a
sacred spot Or shrine, the position of which was
determined by an iucident,an augury or a dream,
but I can hardly believe that it was a seat of on
minion. Some vague traditions point to Tia
ithaeaeo as the spot whence Manco Capac, the
feurider of the Inca dynasty, took his origin, and
whence he started northward to teach the rude
tribes of the Sierra religion and government; and
some late wi hers, D'Orbigny and Castelntu
among them, find reasons for believing that
whole Inca civilization originated here, or was
only a tefldx of that which found here a devel
opment, never afterward equaled, long before
the golden staff of the first Inca sunk into the
earth where Cuzco was founded, thus fixing
through superhuman design the site of the im
perial city.'
The indigines, however, are less amply fur
nished with the speculative faculty. A strictly
mercantile Bolntion sufficed to explain the travel
er's investigations.
"I have no doubt the curet of the town believes
to this day that our visit to the ruins was for the
purpose of digging for treasures, and that we had .
some "itintrario," or guide, obtained from the
archives of Old Spain to direct our. search."
In the views of these Monuments,however,wbiebt
embellish the pa. CB of Harper,. the aborigines or
"Gentiles" are introduced stolidly regarding the
explorations. In that representing the aforesaid
Gateway, a bunched-up figure is seen with his
back planted against the enormous monument,
and holding between his knees a block of stone
which he seems to be embracing or caressing.
The explanation of this figure is contained in the
following paragraph, with which we close our
selections:
"What the Indians themselves thought they
did not tell us. But on our very first day among
tire monuments, and within an hour after we bad
pitched our photographic tent and got out our
instruments, we became aware of the presence of
a very old man, withered, wrinkled, and bent
with the weight of years. His hair was scant
and gray, his eyes rheumy, and his face disfig
ured by a great quid of coca that he carried in
one check. He wore tattered pantaloons of
coarse native cloth, made from the fleece of the
name, kept together by thongs; his poncho was
old and ragged, and the long woolen cap that was
pulled low over his forehead was greasy from
use and stiff with dirt. He had an earthen vessel
containing water suspended from his waist, be
sides a pouch of skin containing coca, and a little
gourd of unslaked lime. In his hand he carried a
small double-edged stone-cutter's pick or hammer.
He paid us no perceptible attention, but wan
dered about deliberately among the blocks of
cut stone that strew the ground, and finally se
lected one of a kind of white tufa,which he rolled
slowly arid with many a pause up to the very
foot of the great monolith, then seated himself
on the ground, placed it between his legs, and
after pr.( paring a now quid of coca, commenced
to work on the stone, apparently with, the pur
pose of cutting it In halves. He worked at It all
day with scarcely perceptible effect, and during
the whole time neither noticed us nor responded.
to our questions. Just before returning to the
village, in the edge of the chill night, I prevailed
on one of our arrieros, who could speak Aymara,
to ask him what was his occupation Ho got
the curt answer from the old man that he was
"cutting out a cross." Every morning he was at
the ruins before us, and he never loft until after
we did at night. ' All day he pecked away at the
stone between his knees, apparently absorbed in
his work and oblivious ofkOnt'presOnce. After a
time we came to look upon hiat an an integral
Part of the monuments, and would have missed
him as much as, we would have done the great
monolith itself.
"One evening I mentioned the old man to the
c4ra, who again put on mystery, toqk me out for
a turn in the plaza, and explained in whispers,
heavy with fumes of canaso, that the old man
was nothing more nor less than a spy on our
doings, and that we made no movement in any
direction that he did not carefully observe.
'lie Is,' said the eura, 'ow) of the guardians of
the tapadas. He is more than a hundred ye tre.
old. He was with 'rupee Arum when he un
dertook to overturn the Spanish poorer, and he
led the Aymaras when they sacked the
town of Huttneaue and slew every white man,
woman and child that fell into their hands. He
is a Gentile still, and throws coca on the amo:ke
las. Al)! It I only know what that old man
knows of the tapadas, Senor,' exclaimed the eura
with fervor, "1 should not waste my life among
these barbarians! You can pity me! And for
the love of God, Senor, if you come across the
treasure, share them with me! I can't live much
longer here !' And the padre burst into a maud
lin paroxysm of tears."
As we take leave of the antiquarian at the close
of this month's paper, ho is absorbed in prepara
tions for visiting the Sacred Islands of Lake
Ticicaca.

e Wealrwroig, May 2...
Mr. Pat NE, oeWisconsin, Introduced a resolution,
which whit adopted, calling on General Grant to ur
nish the number of votes cast in Arkansas on the
adoption of the ConstituLlon for that State.
The members then ricaaltnpanied the managers to the
bar of the Senate.
When the members returned from the Senate Cham
ber, Mr. DONNELLY obtained unanimous consent to
make a personal explanationOn March 20 be asked
leave to Introdhee a bill for the construction of a rail
road from , Taylor's Falls by way of Fort Cloud to the
western boundary of the State of Minneeols. Lie had
naked that it lae referred to tha Committee on Lands
and printed. Objection was made by the gentleman
from Illinois (Mr. Washburhe), and he heard no other
objection. 'lt subsequently seemed, however, that
Mr. Reiman had pujected. tie went to ML Wit& hu rne
and informial him that he was about going to Con
necticut to labor in behalf of the Republican party,
and therefore ho would be obliged to him If he would
• withdraw his objection, so that he alight Intruduca
the bill. His antiwar was that Mr. flohron had ob
jected. Re then went to Mr. Holman, and thatgen
tleman, though nripo‘ted to him in politics, said he
would not interf.ire to prevent the reference of the
but Mr. Washburoo renewed his objection.
Stung with indignation at the conduct of Mr. Wash
burnt,, he eat down and wrote a letter to Mr. Folsom,
of Taylor's Falls, merely stating the facts. The letter
was then read, in which It was stated that it seemed
that Mr. .Washburne resisted every , effort of his to
procure legtalation for the benefit of his constituents.
Mr. Donnelly added that Mr. Washburne bad a
brother there who sought to supplant him as a ateat-',
bet of Congreali. This leiter having been pub fatted'
in the papers, Mr. Washbarrie wrote one, without a
parallel in the history of Congress, and so shocking
.and offensive and outrageous in its character that he
would not now have it reed were it hot that Justice de,
mended its reading.
Washburne's letter was dated Washington
April 10, ana was addressed to Mr. Folsom at Taylor's
Falls, In which he- stated that I. Donnelly seemed to
be searching for sympathy, and asked Mr. Folsom to
took at Mr. Donnelly a Jesuitical performances, Mr.
Donnelly knowing that the bill had not the ghost of a
chance, as theta was but little land to go to the State
of Minnesota; and it was further stated that Mr. Dea
na), might have introduced hie bill four months
(artier from the period at which he sought to intro
duce it. Row contemptible mutt apy Repreeentative
appear who wee f ,and guilty of attempting to impose
or, his constituents. From his knowledge of the
character of Mr. Donnelly, he (Mr. Waehburne) had
become extremely auspicious of anything which be
<Mr, Donnelly) proposed He left Philadelphia be
tween two days, changing his na ne, and also chang
:ng from a Buchanan Locofoco, and made hie appear
ance In Minnesota as an office beggar. ° It was Don
nelly's asheme of plunder which made Mr. WaStiburne
oppoie him. • He trusted that his f 11r. Washburne's)
record was nit stained with venality, corruption, and
crime. livery corrupt measure in Congress bad re
• ceived Mr. Donnelly's support.
The letter of Mr. Washburno having been road by
° the Clerk, Mr. Donnelly remaraed that ho was net
t:drily justified in the declaration be had made, that
the annals of Congress presented no pardllel to that'
litter. and ho thought be should establish that there
mere in the letter twenty-three distinct statements,
but were twenty-three distinct faleeboods. fie
ahouln attempt to deal with them as rapidly as pose!-
nible. •
Mr. Donnelly went on to explain that he had only
received the draft of the bill on the2d of March; that
he had suited leave to introduce it on the 4th; that
Mr. , Wenbburno had tobjetted; that he (Mr. Donnelly)
bad teen gone to Connecticut, to aid the Republican
partym the canvass of that State. He expressed his
hellirf that the objection made by Mr. Washbarne
had sprung from personal and malicious motives, and
remarked that that gentleman could not speak the
truth, even when the truth would best serve hie per
posea. - Raving referred Wand answered other points
in Mr. Washinarne's letter, Mr. Donnelly went on to
speak of Mr. Washburn. of Wiacollain. as "mousing
around” in reference to some otuer bill .
he SPEAKER Interrupted. and said • that that was
not parliamentary language towards a member who
was absent, and who was not involved in the contro
versy.
Mr. DoaNzinv said be would withdraw the re
mark.
Mr. Weslentriteis, of 110nole, expreseed the hope
that the patty would be aletwed to go on.
Mr. DRKEEI4. - E, after teeming teem that point, re
ferred to the charge in Mr Wit&barite's letter Ilea his
!Mr. Donnelly's) opposition to the bill offered some
time slime by Re Washbarn, at •Viiiscorusin, to reduce
the farce on the PacMc Raitreed, miseet be attributed
to the fact that he had a free pass to ride over the
road. Be declared that he had never ridden over a
mile of the road, and did not expect to until it was
'completed from tbe tlisaisslppl to the Pacific. it
would be a censolatene then, tee krow, be said, that
that mighty work had been nested and opposed by
the meet blatant,- loud-voiced, big-chested,
small
headed,bitter-heart"ed demagogue in •all the land,'
[Laughterein both sides of the tetember.] .• -
Referring to the charge made .against inlet le Me-
Wasbleutte's letter ; of bib being "ail otiled hewer,"
Mr. Donnelly said; AnMike begger, sod that teems' ,
eentleman bearing the name Winch lus doest
Brute." .An °Mos ttivtaele Why, Mr. Soothe. eilheff
I entered the State of Mtn it was Demometic
When I ent e red the donate IA I live it Wee two
to one Dianocrette. 1 aeleadtree .ofilett, and I expected
tone. But the chaige cow* front each n quarter
that I cannot fail to note% it The gent eman's
family are chronic office bemire They are nothing
ii
not in ollk-c. Out of Mad they are miserable,
wretched, God-forsaken, and as . uncomfortable as
that famous stump-tailed bull in fly tune.[Laughter.]
This whole trou tee arises from the persistent determ
ination of one of the gentleman's family to eft in this
ledy. Every young male of the gentleman's family is
born into the world with "M. C." franked on his
broadest part. [Laughter.]. The great calamity seems
to be that God, in His infinite vrisdom, did not make
any of them bread enough to make room for U 8. 8.

The SPEAKES interrupted Ur. Donnelly, and ne
minded hint that bar. language was beyond the usual
limit of parliamentary propriety.
Mr. Viesitetmes again intimated his desire that
'the party." should, be permitted to soon. •
Mr. Doerietee said he was sorry to teanegress the
proper limits ot eubate, but the House would per
ceive that the character of the letter on which he was
commenting made hem speak under some feeling.
I was drawn let° it, ho said, by the charges made
against my personal character by the vile insinuation
contained, in that ,leitur that I was a fugitive from
justice, and that I ded from the City ot Philadelphia,
"under suspicious circumstances, between two des's.,"
This, Mel:Weaker, is an absolute, unqualified,
mitigated falsehood, and but for the respect which I
have for you, and for this Rouse, I would use stronger
language.
Mr. Donnelly then went on to refute that charge,
and had read by the Clerk a letter from the Attorney-
Generalet Pennsylvania, with whom Mr. Donnelly
bad studied law, speaking in strong terms of the
probity and purity of his character. and of the public
esteem in which he is held in that community.
Mr. Donnelly then went on to say: I stand here re
peating theeballenge that if anywhere on God's earth,
down in the mire of filth and all nastiness.the gentle,-
man can pluck up anything which touchee my btonor,
let it come. I shailineet it melte merits. I have gone
through' the entire' catalogue. I have analyzed the
entire contents of the gentleman's foul stomach; I
have dipped mylands in its gall,' and I have examined
the halt-digested tiagments which I found alert in the
gastric juice: But if it is possible fot the gentleman
from Illinois, by his .peristaltie action, to throw up
anythipg more loathsome, More disgusting than ho
has vomited over me in that letter, in God's name, let
it come..
The SPEAKER again interrupted Mr. Donnelly, and
reminded him that his language was out of order. •
Mr. Weeneunes, of Illinois, again repeated the'
hope that the "party" might be permitted to go on by
unanimous consent.
Mr. Dornierea• Went on, and stated that thecharges
were not original; that they had been r, ot up by one
•of the editors of the St. Paul Press, a man named
Driscoll, who hid been to Philadelphia and had placed
the detectives there for some days, and had returned,
having found nothing affecting his (Mr. Donnelly's)
reputation, but it seems, he continued, that these
charges are brought up here again. I shall not stop
to amplify that Pplendid passage in Shakspere, which
my friend from lowa (Mr. Price) was compelled to
quote the other day against the gentleman from Illi
nois:
• "Who steals my purse steals trash.
'Tie something, nothing; 'tees mine, 'tie his,
And has been slave to thousands.
Bat he wbolliches from me my good name,
Rohs tee of that which naught enriches him,
And makes me poor indeed."
Why, Mr. Speaker, the cringing, sneaking thief
who picks your • pocket or steals your overcoat is a
Christian gentleman compared with that monster
who would rob you of the precious mantle of your
reputation, and leave you shiveridg before the con
tempt of the world. The assassin who strikes you
down in your blood leaves at least your memory sacred
among met; and your grave may be bedewed with the
tears of affection; but he who would assassinate your
, , reputation, who would strike at the life of your char
acter, and befotil you, who would cover you, all over
with night eoie la wretcleyvhom it were base flat
ten, to calla coward." Beside such a ntan the mem
ory ot Booth grows respectable.
Mr. Donnelly then•weut nn to .refer to the charge
that be had cbanged his es - Attics, and declared in an
swer to it that he bad become a Republican twelve
years ago, and that his Republican' politics wore al
most coeval with the birth of theerarty.
The hour allowed for debate • having expired, a
motion was made that Mr. Doemelly be allowed to
,proceed.
Mr. WAORRUPSE, of Illinois, expressed the

and whom they shall not select, kf,y friend Mr.
Price) meete ill the newspapers of his district the as
saults of the gentleman. He Is ragging the whole
vast amphitheatre. Why does he do tufa) There is
a simple explanation which is given Oat 'ln my dis
trict, and which is one of the great arguinents why,
they ehonld send the distingaisind gentleman's
brother to this House, namely, that he owns General
Grant. That Ile carries Ulysses 8. Grant inhis
breecher! pocket. Why, sir, he already feels on his
shoulders the cares of empire. He already le fore•
casting cabinets, dispensing foreign missions, set
ting men up and patting them down. We can
apply to him the language of Cleopatra to Mark
Aetony:
"In his livery walk crowns and coronets; empires and
islands •
Are like plates dropped from his pocket."
Has be not lived in the same town with General
Grant, and should bp not therefore, perforce, be the
Warwick. the king maker- the power behind the
throne. I never could account for that singular fact
that he lived in the same town with General Grant,e
except on that great principle of compensation
which runs through the created world, the town of
Galena having for, fio. many years endured the gen
tlernan—God Almighty felt that nothing lees; than
Ulysses 8. Grant should balance the account.
[Laughter.] Josh Billings, talking of compensation.
says: "It is a question aehether the ,eatisfection of
scratching will notpay a man for the punishment of
having the itch," I leave the gentleman's constitu
ents to apply the parable. I bow in profound admira
tion before the gentile of Ulysses 8. Grant. I recog
nize him as the greatest, broadest, wisest Intellect of
this generation. I cannot think that he will degen
erate into becoming a puppet to be played by wires
held in the bands of the gentleman front Illinois, or
that he will degenerate into a kind of hand organ, to
be toted around on the hack of the gentleman from
Illinois, while his whole family sit on the top of the
machine vennir e reand catching pennies likda troop
of
monkey'. 'General and (mid newts laughter.] I

- You all expect to get into Heaven by holding on to
my coat-tell; but. I will fool. ' you all; 11l
wear a monkey jacket." fLaughter.l General
Grant has got to wear that political monkey jacket.
We had General Grant np in Minnesota, and, of
course the distinguished gentleman from Illinois
was with him, and when General Grant was serenaded,
the gentleman from Illinois Enid,: his head ont of the
window and thanked the crowd, and when they rode
in an open barouche: together, and the crowd bar
rabed, the gentleman from Illinois laid his hand upon
his heart, pad .hoysed his profound eclaaowledg
merits: 'e. , ~. ea

like some of the ancient warehouses p. .site great

to overflowing with the richest merchandise.
The intellect of the gentleman from Illinois is like
some of those: establishments that we see in Pennsyl

above it alabeir "Anything in this window for one

vast stores of his erudition, "Shake not thy gory locks
at me; thou came not say I did it?" given with a rdar
like a woundad,gordia, and rash into the cloak room
amid the shouts and lauehter of the Howie.
Donnelly then went on to draw a fancy sketch
of Dlr. Washburne as he might appear in the Congress
of the heavens addressing the archangels and angels—
how he would sail, into them—bow he would route
them, horse, foot and dragoons--how he would atr ack
their motivels and t- fling biiiinustion at them--how he
would declare for economy; that the wheels of the
universe meet, be plopped, - for they consumed too
much grease, aid that all expenditures should be
stoppeo except that which would construct for the
gentleman' an e.x.trit water closet. One word in con
common.. The gentlemen has assailed me, and it is but
right that I should put his own character in the bal
ance. What great measure, in his sixteen years of
legislation, has the gentleman ever originated: What
liberal measure has ever met his support: What
original sentiment has he ever uttered: .What thought
of his - has (tier risen above the dead level of the
dreaming platitudes! If he lay dead to morrow in this
Chamber what heartin this body would experience one
fence/0 pang of sorrow? Who is there in this House
whom he has not assailed
Ile told the gentleman from Vermont, the other
day, that every corrupt and profligate measure that
was passed on in this body had met with his support,
and when the gentleman from Vermont rose upon
him, be cringed out of it like a whipped spaniel. Did
he not say to my friend from Pennsylvania, Mr.
O'Neill, the other day, that he would not say--for
that is the gentleman's way of making an insinuation
—that the gentleman was one of a "ring" to swindle
his country? Has he not attacked my friend Mr.
Price, of lowa, and aspersed his motives in his legis
lation in this body?
He has taught to build himself on our dishonor, to
glorify himself in our disgrace, to pollute and befoul
and traduce the very bqdy of which he is a member.
Ills harangues are the staple of the newspapers of
the opposition. We meet his charges on the stump.
Ho has lowered, by his wholesale, reckless assaults on
the honor and character of the members, the standard
of this body. He has furnished arguments tor the
wit of Dan Rice. He has furnished substance for the
slanders of the pot-house.
Mr. Speaker,' need enter.into no defense of the For
tieth Congress. In point of intellect, of devotion to the
public welfare, of integrity, 'of personal character, it
will compare favorably with any Congress that ever
sat since the foundation of the government It is il
interested by names that would do honor to any nation
in any age of the world. If there be in our midst one
low, sordid, vulgar soul. one barren, mediocre intelli
gence, one heart that is callous to every kindly senti
ment and to every generous emotion, one tongue lep
rous with slander, one month whice is like unto a
den of wild bate, giving forth deadly odors; if there be
here one character which, while blotched and spotted
yet raves and rants and blackguards like a prostitute:it
there be here one bold, bad, empty, bellowing dema
gogue, it is the gentleman from Illinois.
Tee beassions, with severity in his tones, stated to
Mr. Donnelly that his remarks were not honorable to
the House of Represeatattves, of which be was a
member; and that. although the Hotuie tolerated them,
the Chair could not consent that they should go on
record, except with :his protect:t
Mr. DONNELL) , begged pardon of the House, and
said be had no desire to trespass on its rules, or to of
fend its sense of propriety, but the House would ac
knowledge that no man who eyer sat in thief body had,
met with so vile, so extraordinary, PO cruel an assault
es that of which he had been a victim, lie called the'
house to witness that he bad never before vloiated its
rules, nor said a dieconrteons word to any member.
lie hoped the House would pardon the natural heat
which he exhibited.
Mr WAPILBURNE ' of Illinois, said: During my en
tire time of service in this House I have never asked
leave to make a personal explanation, and I never ex
pect to. 'rho "party" from Minnesota has had the
letter which I wrote to a gentleman in that State read
to the House, and it goes upon the records of the
Douse and on the records of the country, and there it
will remain for all time. Every assertion made in
that leiter is true, and whoever says it is not true,
gates what is false., It I were called upon, I aesire
only to say this: If'!, under any operation of circum
stances., were over called upon to make a personal ca
pitulation in reply to a member, it would not be to a
member who had committed a crime; it would not be
to a member who had run away; it would not be: to' a
member whose whole record in this House is covered
With veniality,• corruption and crime. .
The SI.EANEA reminded the gentleman that his'' re

of the House, no bilainess could be transacted unless
the House return from the Senate before three o'clock,
and in pursuaece of notice given.

Mr Wasursonsig —I said I should not reply torch

The Brizareste, interrupting him, stated the reason
why' he ruled the gentientan frp a Illinois oak of prdeft
It. was owing to the gentleman's attitude, geatiires

Chair reminded the geqtlemato frqm Illinois, as he
several times reminded the gettlenfan from Ulnae

Mr. WINDOM gave notice that when the House
again met for business he would offer his resolution of

whom be was looking, then they were not out of order.

make a personal explanation. I should make it,witit
