Iieck slipped bin muzzle off to day, and opened tbe de'o&te npoo the Army bill w ith long, disconnected, irrelevant political speech. Since the Army bill first came into sight, Sen ator Uiaiue has repeatedly challenged any Democratic Senator to refer to a single well - authenticated instance where a qualified voter Las been de prived of his right to vote by reason of the presence of United States troops at ths poll The pending question was on Mr. Blaine's amendment, providing for the punishment of any person carry ing a deadly weapon at tiie polls when an ejection for Representatives in Congress is being hclL Senator BUine in his challenge has always asserted that thousands upon thousands of American citizens have been, on the other luuid, deterred! from voting by the presence of armed I ru&ans fit the polls, in support of which assertion many official docu ments could be produced. This chal lenge and its acccmpanhnents have been exceedingly troublesome to the Democrats, and a number of Demo cratic Senators have at different times esscyed to wrestle with it, al ways however coming to grief. The Senator frcm Kentucky pre pared himself to-day with great care, , , . - r i rl , ttnj fortified himself with a large pile L,f newspapers and records, to de- niolish the troublesome obstruction ; which JIr Blaine ereetej Ln political .)atv :,rr. cet.fs 1Iiaurials j wenj whol;v drilwn fronl tvonts i,,i :.,,,. t-ft :n tion which took place in August, lS(i5.

After enlarging upon ... , f l,.,- .... 1 l,lf and mixing in with them incidentally almost every topic which has been referred to in political debates of the last three niondis, he gave way. Senator Blaine made a characteris tic Fpeech in replr, occupying about an hour, and as usual, distributing during the war, iiad surrounaea Mr. Blaine then took up the ttory of the Peters burg election, n which occasion, ac cording to Mr. Withers, Virginians had beeu outraged and intimidated to such an extent that many of them had not ventured to approach the polls.

Nothing, he said, fronj the pens or lips of eminent Southerners of other days or from the gieat lights of litr erature from other lands had been found worthy of a place in this work Senator Yooruees then made speech of two hours in length, care fully prepared and designed exclu sively for circulation in country dis tricts as a campaign document. He 6et up men of straw and with tre mendous force tilted at them until their remnants were scattered by the whirlwinds which his own stormy eloquence created. He ascended above the mountain tops for his met aphors and descended to the lower depths for his terms of hissing re proach. At six o'clock Senator Conkling called attention to the fact that Sen ator Beck and Senator Voorhees had consumed the greater part of the day, and that several Republican Senators wished to make speeches on the army bilL He expressed the hope that a night session would not be forced upon the Senate, and he moved to adjourn. Mr. Withers, in charge of the bill, expressed his willingness to adjourn if unanimous consent could be given to take a vote at some fixed hour to morrow. To tbis proposition Senator Conk ling said he wotdd not assent, and threatened that if such an unfair pro cedure should be attempted the Re publicans woidd stand upon their reserved rights. Filibustering thereupon began, and a scene of confusion, of roil calls and points of order, of decisions and ap peals, and more points of order fol lowing in rapid succession, continued for hours. After Fpending half the night in me hlubustenng, senator oonKiing, at midnight, made one of the most scathing arraignments of the Dem ocracy for hypocrisy and unfair treat ment ever heard in the Senate. It created intense excitement. Inci dental reference who made to Mr. Lamar. The latter arose and denounoed the statement us a falsehood. Mr. Conkling leplied tis follows: "I havi'dn'y fo say that if fiie mem-! ber fro r Mississippi imputed to me a fakeiiood, nothing except the fact &at this is the Senate of the United States prevents me from denouncing him as a blackguard and coward. Let me be more specific. Should the member from Mississippi impute falsehood to me. nothing except this presence should prevent me from de Doutcng him as a blackguard, as a coward and a liar ; and understand ing what Le said as I do, the rules and the proprieties of the Senate are the only restraints upon me. I do think and I intend to say nothing else." Mr. Lamar, in intense excitement, said : " I did mean to say just pre cisely the words I used. I beg the pardon of the Senate for unparlia mentary language. It was severo. It was such as no. good man deserves and no brave man would bear." Mr. Cockrell was in the chair and did not apjiear to know what to do. The tones of both Senators were in the highest degree offensive, and each was applauded by his friends in the galleries.

A FEMALE I'OHGEK. How She is Operaling in Philadelphia Ha Ingenious Swindle. A brief paragraph in The Press no ted the fact that a woman was calling on the charitable and benevolent people of Philadelphia and soliciting subscrip tions for Christian Work, aud tbat the person alluded to was a fraud." It has since transpired tbat she is a swin dler and a iorger as well, and tbat she bas already succeeded in victimizing a number of ladies who were taken in by her plausible address and specious at le. Her maruers are so suave, and ber stock of stories so well constructed, and ber make-up so well calculated to deceive, that it is not ti be wondered at that she is gathering quite a harvest in Philadelphia. Among others oo whom she haa recently called is a lady of wealth and influence, residing oa West Spruce street. To this lady she presented he-elf last Friday, and in explanation of the visit handed her a cote, of which the following is a copy, tbe names, of course, being omitted : Mr Dear Mas. F. : May I apolo gize for thus troubling you, but some irionds of ciioe bave been using every effort to try and gather fuffiioot money to pay the expenses of sending two sis ters the youngest of wbota is blind and in the first stage of censumptiou, out to tbe father in Calcutta, India, where be is now laboring as a missionary, and they bave to leave Gurmantown this afternoon for New York to go in tbe emigrant train to Sao Francisco, thenee per ship for ludia.

I am sending Mif-s Adams out with my note, as 1 am going out to them now. She will return your answer to me, aod if yon have any cast-off warm garments it would be most acceptable. The case bas excited tbe deepest sympathy, and is fully worthy, or you may feel sure I would not thus write. Yours, with regards, ' Mrs. A." It ia bardly necessary to add tbat subsequent inquiries proved tbat tbe note was a forgery, and tbat the story of the two sisters baa no foundation iu fact. As the woman is uuderstood to be still making ber rounds in this city, it is to be boped that some one will de tain ber, with a rtquest for a history of The Two Sisters," which will be of sufficient length to enable the police to be present at tbe conclusion. Phila delphia Press. Gored to Death by a Bull. An old man named Jesse Stem, of Somerset, Pa., met with a horrible death ou Thursday evening a week. It appears tbat be was not oo good terms with his family, and for a number of years' past bad been making bis Lome with Mr. James Parsons, wbo lives on a farm aout half a mile east of Som erset, on tbO old Pittsburg and Bed ford pike. Mr. Parsons is a stock fancier, and owns soma of the finest AMernev cattle in SomtTset county. I Mr Stem's ?nrv to water B sj m aw ww J and feed them. Tbe king of 'be stock yard was a little Alderney bull, which was inclined to be fierce and intracta ble on certain occasions. About six rb 'clock on tbe evening above mentioned tbe old gentleman started to lead tiif bull from bis (tall to tbe wateriog trough, and the supposition is that just as tbey wert going t of the stable door the bull turned on Mr. Stem, with its bead down, and thrust its horns into bis body. Mr. Parsons as sitting on the porch of bis bouse, duectly oppo site tbe stable, at tbe time, and beard the old man cry out twice for help. Running over to tbe stable he found Mr. Stem lying in tbe yard, completely disemboweled. Both boms of the bnll bad penetrated his stomach, and be must bave died almost iostantly. Mr. Parson' eon, aged about 17 years, came running into tbe yard while bis father was bending over the victim, and the bull lowered its bead and started for bim, one of its horns teaming bis clothes in front. It then tnrned, and was abont making another dash at the boy, when Mr. Parsons picked op a band spike and strack it a heavy blow over the bead, partially stunning it, sod giving bim an opportunity of removing the victim's body to the bouse. Mr. Parson soon afterward returned to the stable with a rifle, and shot fbe bull dead. Mr. Stem's remains wete bnried in Somerset on Friday. Be was about 71 year of age. Ex. ciEXER.tt new.
