Delaware is a small State, but still it is larpe enough to sport a rump legis lature in addition to tlie regular aggre gation. Oi r next United Mates Senator, Doics Penrose, may he a young man, hut there m ill be few abler men in the I't.itol States Senate than he. The people votei on the tarifT ques tion in Xowraber quite as much as they voted ou the money question, and the next Consresw will art accordingly. The discovery of a big spot on the sun is now nearly a week old, and still the prophets have not warned us of an era of cyclones or an epidemic of pink eye. The post ollice department Las de cided that no one, not actually resid ing within the corporate limits of a city or town, would be appointed port master of the town.

It is difficult to make the farmers b: lieve that they uo not need more pro tection against fireign competition when tii oiVi-ial rei:rts toll them that large quantities of agricultural prod u -U are living imported under th? pres ent tari.T law.

Sena tor Money, of Mississippi, just home from a lit Lie investigation on hi own account in Cuba, is straiigely reticent, and declines to give any intimation as to his whereabouts d-.iriugtwo days of mysterious a'.isenc-.? from Havana. The Government certainly ncetls more revenue, aud the country needs more protection. Both of these things were voted for by the p.-opte when Mc Ktuley was elected, ami they will both y provided !ts s.kiii as possible after the beginning of the new Administration. Ox presidential elector for Kentucky is still in doubt Governor Bradley has signed certificates for eleven R -publicans aud one I lemoerat As there were two Republican candidates for elector who received the same vote, it will de volve on the electors certified to choose one of the two as the thirteenth mem ber of their body. At the recent election Minnesota adopted a constitutional amendment to the effect that no alien shall hereafter exercise the right of suffrage until he sha'l have been fully naturalized; and Texas has decided that hereafter no p ron of foreign birth shall vote in that Stat? unless he shall have been a resident for one year, aud declared his inteati ci to become a citizen six months before the e lection.

Donald Cameron iu the United States Senate as a representV.ve from Penn sylvania. This was decided in joint caucus by the State legislators Tuesday evening of last week, the first and ouly ballot resulting: Penrose 13.'$, Wanania ker To. A majority of the entire Legis lature is liS. Penrose then-fore carried a majority of the whole vote of both Hou-, making the action of the cau cus final and decisive and his election, whieh will follow on the reconvening of the Iegislature ou Monday of next w -ek, will le but a matter of form. Tae n-al battle was fought in the cau cus, nnd Penrose won, and won hand somely. No man in this country has been m re wantonly abused and vilified than llo'es Penrose since he first presented himself as a candidate for Myor of Philadelphia two years agtt. No charge was too mean for his political enemies ti circulate, no slander too foul for them to repeat. The fair fame of a young mtn, of whom any people should feel prou l, was blackened that his laudable a-spirations might lie defeated. It 'nut ters not that these slanders were time and again proven to be untrue, those ugaged in the work of defamation vrnald repeat them on every possible occasion. I u this contest the same old slanders that had lieen used against liim la his fight for the mayoralty, and mhich had been shown to be utterly and basely false, were made do service again. He came out of the fire with a character untarnished, aud m ill enter the United Stat esScnateas the youngest tii'-mber Pennsylvania has ever scut to that body.

I vania of her representation in the - - ., . e highest council of the nation ty one oi the most carefully trained, thoroughly cultured and naturally ablest of the young men within her borders. The attempt to belittle Mr. Penrose as being one of Senator Quay's hench men will fall flat Mr. Penrose Is Senator Quay's preference, but not his creature. Ilia senatorial canvass took shape from his own abilities at a time when Senator Quay's attitude was un certain, and the belief was ueld by many who take their lead froni him that tJorernor Hastings would be his preference. So far as the aspects of the political situation afford any indica tions, the relation of Mr. Penrose to Senator Quay is one of friendship, but not of subserviency, and we have no doubt that Pennsylvania will be repre sented in Congress by two Senators. With an able spokesman, as well as a shrewd negotiator, in the State repre sentation, its weight and influence in the Senate of the United States will be greatly increased. Skxator Boies Pexho.se, of this city, was nominated by the Republican Legislative caucus, held last evening, for United States Senator on the first ballot by the decisive vote of 133 for Penrose, 75 for Wanamaker, 1 for Cam eron, 1 for llobinson and 1 for Judge Bice, with 4 absent or not voting. As VJS votes would elect a Senator in a full Legislature, the caucus vote for Penrose is iu excess of the number re-quin-d to assure his election, aud he may, therefore, be accepted as the suc cessor of Cameron in the United States Senate. Senator Penrose comes to the front as a new and imposing factor in the poli tics of the State and Nation, lie has been hindered in public appreciation throughout the State, aud iu broaden ing his creditable intellectual force, by his absorption in the local political con flicts of our city. But called to the highest legislative position of the Un ion, with every incentive and every needed ability to attain distinction, there is little doubt that he will take high rank as a n'spectcd and efficient Senator. He will enter the Senate on the 4th of March next to qualify as the youngest member ever called to repre sent Pennsylvania in that great tribu nal; and with a reasonable prospect of extended public service, it is not to lie expected that he could fail to impress himself upon his State and upon the country at large as a national legislator. He is young, ardent, ambitious and Hole, and with a field opened to him that covers the entire Republic, there is every reason to assume that he will d honor to himself and to the State he is to represe'iit. Fate teaches strange lessons in the mutations o." American politics. Sena tor Penrose would have been unthought of fur the United States Senatorship at this time but for his erfidiou3 betrayal and defeat for the nomination for Mayor two years ago. He had liecn ncoui mended for the Chief Magistracy of the city in the editorial columns of even daily newspaper of Philadelphia, and a man who could command such a trib ute from journals of every faitli and inclination should have been invincible against the shafts of malice; but perfi dious leaders who hated htm for his in tegrity, with words of friendship for his ears while aiming the dagger at his heart, invented the most malicious and bewildering calumnies, which misled many good citizens into distrust of his pc'sonal character, and under that dis trust he was betrayed and cruciiied by the very political leaders who had call ed him to the field as the most availa ble candidate fWr Mayor. It was the blow of the malignant scandal-monger that overthrew him iu that contest; the reciil has made him United States Sen ator. That Senator Penrose has largely profited by th-e. attempts to defame him throughout the State after the defamers in his own immediate vicinity had long been silenced, can not lie doubted by any who dispassionately review the ex ceptionally bitter content just closed. The sentiment of fairness and manli ness is masterful in the minds of the American people, and iu no State is it more potent than among the intelli gent, fair-'uinded people of Pennsylva nia. Seeing that every Legislator in the Senatorial district in which he and his chief competitor both reside, with two-thirds of the Senators and a ma jority of the Representative1 of the en tire city, rallied to his support for Sen ator, all the cflorts to defame him sim ply intensified his friends and quick ened every attribute of manliness in sympathy with him. While he pos sesses the ability and character to make a formidable candidate for United States Senator unde-r any cniditiors, it is certainly true that the inexorable laws of fate, which hold retributive jus tice as their chief weapon, have made Boies Penrose the new United State's Senator from Pennsylvania. Where now are his defam-ers? Philadelphia Times. To Fnt a Stop to "Tieting." Iuxwrv, Conn., Jan. 9.

BOIES PENROSE SELECTED AS CAMERON'S SUCCESSOR. Boies Penrose, 133 ; John Wanamaker, 75. It was by this vote that the Repub lican joint caucus held at llarrisburg last Tuesday night settled the question of a successor to J. Donald Cameron in the Senate of the United States. Mr. Camer on himself received one vote, that of Sen ator John C. Grady, of Philadelphia. The hall of the House, where the cau cus was held was crowded, althongh ev ery effort was made to prevent the admis sion to the floor of any but those entitled to seats. Mr. Grady, as Chairman of the Senate caucus, assumed the chair. Sneaker Henry K. Boyer nominated Boies Penrose, speaking as follows : "I desire very briefly, said Mr. Boyer, "to perform a duty that 1 was but recent ly requested to discharge. I rise to nom inate for the highest legislative office in the world a man whom we all know well; a man who is without fear and without reproach. lie is a man of honor to whom a dishonorable act or purpose is foreign to his nature and as far removed as Yenus from the Nadir. I nominate the Honorable Boies Penrose, of the Sixth Senatorial district of Philadel phia." At this point Mr. Boyer was interrup ted by a salvo of applause, and as soon as it had subsided he continued . "He is in the prime of young manhood the peer of any man of his age in these United States. He was educated for col lege by his own dear mother, without any assistance. He was graduated from Harvard with second honors in every branch, and was only excelled by his brother, who took first honors in every branch. Where lias the breath of public suspicion or of scandal ever blown across his face? lie has stood iu the glare of public opinion, and he has been dissect ed by the press and individuals, and he remains without a staiu or bieuiish upon his reputation. I sincerely hope aud be lieve he will be the choice of the caucus by a large majority." Itdpresentative Hermann, of Snyder county, seconded the nomination. Sen ator Childsey, of Northampton, followed on behalf of the veterans, and Senators Gobin and McCarrell testified to their associate. Then Senator Christopher C. Kauff. man, of Lancaster, was recognized to say : "No higher honor could have been paid me than my selection to nominate Hon. John Wanamaker, a God-fearing, law-abiding citizen and a typical Penn sylvauian. He has risen from the lowest ranks to be the greatest Postmaster General the country has ever seen, as well as the greate-t merchant in the world. lie is a manufacturer and a busi ness man. The idle wheels all over this Commonwealth testify to the necessity for more business nien in the United States Senate, Mr. Wanamaker sent the first shipload of provisions from this -ou!itry to the starving of Europe. He has improved the schools of Philadelphia, and almost every charitable institution there is a monument to his beneficence nnd generosity, lie is the choice of nine-tenths ef the people of the State. Attention should bo paid by legislators to the richt of petition. We are the servants and not the masters of the peo ple. Xotriinntc John Wanamaker and you will never have cinise to blush." Mr. Wanatuaker's nomination was sec oikIihI by Representative Stewart, the Father of the House ; Senator William Flinn, of Pittsburg, and "Representative Young, of Tioga. Then the roll was called, with tho result given atiove. Senator Penrose was not in tho caucus. Ho remained at his hotel and had the re sult telephoned to him. When the vote was announced the Penrose people in dulged in a display of wild enthusiasm. When it was over Senator Kauffman arose and said : "We have fought a won derful fight ajriinst tremendous odds, but we are loyal Republicans, and at the re quest of Mr. Wanamaker and his follow ers I move to make the nomination of Senator Penrose unanimous." Senator Flinn seconded the nomina tion, and it was majj unanimous. Then the caucus adjourned. After th'j caucus Mr. Wanamaker gave a dinner to the 73 men who hail voted for hitn. The defeated candidate made a speech in which he declared that he would stick by his friends, and Jthat the business men would keep up their or ganization. Boies Penrose now represents the Sixth district of Philadelphia iu the state senate. He was born on November 1, lNirt. He Is the eldest son of R. A. F. Penrose, M. D., L L. D., a professor in Jhe medical department of the Universi ty of Pennsylvania, and a grandson of Charles B. Penrose, one of the best- known lawyers of the state, speaker of the state senate for several terms and so licitor of the United States treasury un der Presidents William Henry Harrison and John Tyler. His great-grandfather was Clement Biddle Penrose, who was educated in France and Switzerland, and who, on his return to Philadelphia was appointed by Thomas Jefferson, then presidentof the United Stales, one of the three commissioners to take charge of the recently acquired territory of Louisiana. Boise Teurose was educated by private tutors at home until, at the age of 1C, he entered Harvard College, front which he was graduated in 1H1. He was one of the graduates selected to deliver an ora tion at the commencement, and his sub ject was "Martin Van Buren as a Politi cian." He studied law in the office of Wayne McVeagh and George Tucker Bisnhani, and was admitted to the bar of Philadelphia in lcst. In iss be was ele1ed to represent the Eishth Ward of Philadelphia iu the Pennsylvania House of Representatives and in ISA the Sixth District in the Senate. May , 1889, ho was elected president pro tempore of the Senate, and was re-elected January 6, 1S1, to the same office. November 8, I, and again in 1SH, he was re-cleeu d to the State Senate. He is the author, in con- nection with his law partner, of a history , of the city govern moot of Philadelphia, 1 a volume enti'.led "Philadelphia, 16fl 1SS7," and a "History of Ground Ret ts in V I' Philadelphia." At the session of 1JWI he was chairman of tho judiciary special committee. OaTS sp Two Killion. Sax Francisco, Cab, Jan.

Death in a Wooden leg. Shamokin, Pa., Jan. 7.-Owing to a wooden leg John Comlaugh met with a tragic death last evening. Some time ago he lost a leg, and procured an artificial one. When winter set in ho fastened a sharp piece of steel on the bottom of tho stump to prevent himself from slipping on ice. He was returning to Excelsior from this place last evening, and turned from the Reading Railroad to traverse a shoit route home. The path led over the Lehigh tracks, and when he stepped on a sill the steel became entangled in a splintered silL As he struggled desperately to free himself a Lehigh train rounded a short curve. The man strove frantically to free him self. On the train came. With a jerk, the cripple freed the stump, but he was too late to jump. The cow-catcher knocked him down the bank to death.

To see Florida is a pleasure ; to visit it is a privilege ; but to spend a fortuight within its Ixirders is an epoch. There is a great satisfaction in witnessing the ri pening of tropical fruits in their own native land, and a peculiar joy in wrest ling with old ocean's waves when lakes and rivers at home are all icebound. One appreciates the wonders of moc'ern invention and railroad development up on leaving tho neighborhood of g;d skating one day aud finding himself in the vicinity of good bathing the next. Yet this can be done, and the man who pre fers hunting or fishing will take his ac coutrements along with him, for Florida extends a cordial invitation to all sports meu.
