In tale wttar, U la anld, Mr. lllouat daaouaead taa Sub-Trqpiury bill, and atatail that ha "w.ib and nlwaya wotiM We opiiowwl to It, and o would any other teaMbia ma." Ho further Mated that It waa "claaa legislation, nnd he cottkt not aattonw It In nny way." Sir. IJlounl, after girlag his views ihtta, It Is said asked hU friend to feel THK Vl'LSK or TIIK Af.MAXm of the foiinty ami oKartnln Just what olTcct such a statement front him would hnvc. This frltml, It seems. Imparted Mr. lllomit's views In aconltdentlal way to two or three other friend, and In this way they have become pretty generally known throughout the county. That the Alliance men are not satis fied with Mr. mount's position Is a matter of course. It seems to be under stood that they will fetch out a candi date against him, unless he can In some way tquaro htmlelf with them, ami this Is understood to he the object of his present visit to his district. Mr. lllount Is now serving his ninth term, hnvlng been first elected to the Fortv third Congress. 1873 M. He has been a hard-working, COXSCIKNTIOUS LtMltnLATOK. At the present time he is one of the leaders ol the Democratic side. He is a member of the Committee on Utiles and the senior Democrat on Postoftlces and Post lloads. It would be hard to be retired just as he had climbed to the ton. Mr. Crisp of the Third Georgia dis trict yesterday gave out his reply to the tiuestlons of the Alliance. HI nomina tion ami election are regarded as sure, no matter what the Alliance may do in his case. Iteferrlng to the sub-Treasury plan he criticises it because It would cost millions of money and Involve the appointment of TUOl'SAKIM OK OFFICIAL, who would have to be appointed by Republican olticlala. He liiea shows that the merchant, the doctor, the me chanic, the day laborer, the wool raiser, the saw-mill owner, the turpen tine producer, and all others of every occupation who do not have for deposit tb articles mentioned In the bill, would be required to pay their proportionate part of the taxes necessary to sustain the system, and yet could obtain no privileges thereunder. And asks Shall we who have so long, so earnestly aad so justly Insisted upon the repeal of all laws which tax some for the exclusive benefit of others, now abandon that principle? He thinks substantial good to no class could rotae from the bill, should it be come a law, aad closes bis examination of the measure as follows: "I fear it might unsettle values. I fear It would iavlle injurious speeulatloa la farm products. I fear It would result la greet loss to those whose necessities pouit4d theat to deposit their crops, aad 1 fear it would make eartaia aad easy taa formation of roxtuxATtuxa xo tkists to eoatrol, at the will of taa speculator, taa ntiees of taa ariase aeeasiatias of life."

The contracting parties were Mr. Alesander II. ItobarU of Philadel phia ami Miss Mary Mott of this city. Keltber of the parties were of age at the time, ami much comment was made la regard to the wedding it was known, however, that the groom would come In possession of a large estate, and everybody thought Miss Mott was making a lucky catch. She wet him at a reception given at the home of the Hrittsk Minister In 181. It was a case of love at first slxlil, and a marriage would have followed in a few months but for the fact that Mr. ltoberts was not In financial condition to undertake the maintenance of a household.

He Was Foitdd te Iltfsml Uh Mottj He Recwr, WHEREAT THERE WAS MITCH REJOINS A Prattee Tbat Hat Be Aktwed, PrffflMnl Svmrars-In Whs Take Ywr (WBHew It Wwks. Since the ortanlratlon of the Govern ment it has Iiecn the practice for every one upon assuming an ofllce, from the highest to the lowest, to take an oath of allegiance, nnd It has usually been the custom for some one connected with each Department to exercise his notarial functions for the benefit of his own pookct. The time when this was not, the practice Is not r ithin the mem ory of man. "TIIK IATK .tCtlOK IAWI1KX0N for'nearly half a century administered tha oath to employes of the Postofllcc Dcpartmentt nnd many was the quarter that went into his pocket during his long sctvlcc. Hut the practice has fallen on evil times, nnd the clerk with his notarial seal promises to become a remi niscence. Secretary Proctor U the Iconoclast who so rudely Invaded the prcroeatlvo of the clerical notary and his action in the caso of CHIEF C I.KItK TWKKtlALK Is the first step toward the dlscontlntt ante of the combination. It will he re membered that one bright, sunshiny afternoon, not many days since, Mr. Twccdalc donned his coat and hat nnd left the Department. Ho made a .lekyllHyde transformation, and when he reached the Hecord and Pen sion Division of the War Department he was no longer Mr. Tweedale. ttie chief clctk, but "Mr. Tweedale, tho no tary. A number of clerks were to be transferred to tbat division, and It was nccestaty to have them take the oath. The men were sworu In simih, some what after the style Ui which the lale Sunset Cox depicted the swearing In of those who took the oath at the con clusion of the war. Mr. Tweedale ptfckly rattled off the time-worn for mula, "Do you solmcnly swear, etc.," and then each clerk dropped Into his hands a twenty five cent piece. When lite utttlngulslietl swearer-in left he was conscious not only of having done his duty, but of having reaped ipilte a harvest There were five or six hundred clerks, and the net result of the oaths they took increased Mr. Tweedsle's bank arcouut rptlte materi ally. That is. It did for a time, for as soon as Secretary Proctor heard how hit chief clerk had passed the afternoon he ordered that the fee be returned to the clerks, and this was done. The question now arliea: If Mr. Tweedale was wrong In exacting fee for his services are not the notaries In the other Departments 1311-ALLY to nut MX? That the cierKs, or at least one of them, feel highly pleased at the Secre tary's order is evidenced by the follow ing letter: KiMor Critif ft I very gratifying; to the cord aud IYulon IMvislou clerk In tbe Record of tbe War Departuteut tu at lait Ui a urel that there I a blazer man than the two big fellow bo bare for a long time presumed to run tbat ueuartmeat.

Jnly t A Washington correspondent of the Itmnkl .wyi: The fact la, judging by pretty gewentl taikr with Senators, although they dWIke at thta roajtiaeture to lie rpiotetl per aosmlly, that the supports around the Ixidge mil an not strong enough to hold H n Its weakneae was developed In the llonte, and It hae lost strength In the Senate even before It has been put out to nurse. Those .enators who tx? Here In the national control of elections don't think much of Henry Cabot Lodge's offspring. Therefore, umler a tare contingency, should such an act be passed In tbe Senate It won't be one of either the heroh aire or heroic nature of that fathered by Mr. Lodge al though It la more than hinted that a man about lteed's sire had somethlmr, to do with It. Hut those opposed to It do not recoj nlxa that even a contingency Is posri We. It la to be expected, of course, that the Democrats will lie found In opposition, ami the success or failure of tbe measure Is simply A Ut KWIOS or KSm'MASCK. While the radicals have leen Intent upon the formation of a rule to prevent filibustering, or. as they sar In the Sen ate, f teedom of debate, they have for gotten that no more ample field for (111 ruselon would be offered than this very rule to cu. short Senatorial gabble Indeed, some Senators say that It would be much better for the honor and credit of the Senate to put In the FVme hill first to try the efficacy of the alttlmr, out process, ami then no change In the Ittlea would be necessary to gain a po llllcal jwlnl. The truth is. though, that this tiring out expedient might not tire out so effectually as those who !"k to precedent alone Imagine. It wa. I' Is true, a somewhat convenient though dlttlcult method of procedure when the minority representation coasisteJ of about a dozen Senators, for while ibote few spirits were a llllng, even a D m crat cannot talk forever, though iln theme be the Constitution or Its vi ,i thin. With the Scnale pretty even'v divided, however. It would be a to :.p which would go under first the fell i who talk, or the fellows who rote. TWO BKMOCMAT OX Ol'AMP, so to speak, would be all that would i, needed at onetime, oaa of whkh cm ! addreas the sleeping Senator, while tin other could frequently iarlie th? preaenca of the Itepublteaas every time he saw that the absence of a Uorum necessitated aa adjournment. I otci this programme tbe llepubllcans w,n, I figure quite as much la tha Jls ri wiu voles as the Democrat would witu speeches. This la merely tactdeau boa ever, as it lakes no account of th. Republican opposition to this clas f legislation.
