In the House Mr. Chew, from the Financo Committee, reported back the bill' to appropriate money to build a sewage crematory at the AVeston asylum, with the recommendation that it do not pass. House Bill No. 235; to authoriza the Kanawha & Ohio Hallway company to build a bridge across the Great Kanawha botween Charleston and the mouth of the Gauley river, was passed. In the afternoon the consideration of tho Genoral Appropriation bill was resumed and wrangling over the different provisions consumed the afternoon session. An amendment waa mado giving the President of tho State University $3,000 yearly salary. The bill to establish a State Reform School was_taken up on its second reading, and Mr. Kidd moved to provide for the admission of girls as well as boys to tho proposed school, la opposing this amendment Mr. Hamilton said ho had nover ssen a female under 21 years of age in tho penitentiary and ho had been there several timea. This caused a smile, which increased to a laugh when he added, "as a visitor?as a visitor." Mr. Kidd'a amendment was rejected. Dr. Hensley moved to locate the school at Now Haven, in Mason county; Dr. McOlung at Aldorson, Monroe county; Mr. Young at Buckhaanou. Upahur county. The latter two proposals were voted down, and Dr. McOlung moved to locate at I31uo Sulphur Springs, Greenbrier county. Mr. Kidd moved to tnblo tho whole matter. Lost. Eluo Sulphur Springs was rejectod, and Mr. Garden moved to insert Onio county. This ho said ho did out of economy, as nine-tenths of tho bad boys lived in Ohio county or its immediate vicinity. Mr. Kinsey moved to lay the bill on the table. Carried. APPROPRIATION* BILL. In considering the general appropriation bill a motion was made to striko out the appropriation of $500 in each year for tho State Fish Oommiesion was also debated at some length, and lost. The appropriation of $3,000 to pay O. O. Watts for legal eervices in the litigation concerning the taxation of tho Oheaapeake & Ohio Railway Company caused considerable discussion, and successive amendments, to reduce to $2,000 and to $1,500, were rejected. 'Mr. Whitaker then moved to reduce to SI,200; and to add $S00. to be paid to Col. Robert Wliito for services in the same case. He made a short speech in earnest support of this amandment. Mr. Kidd opposed, and Mr. Hacans favor od, the discussion taking a wide range. Mr. Kidd accused "certain attorneys of Wheeling" of lobbying agftinBt every fee which did not benefit them personally. Mr. Hagans called attention to the fact that ex-Governor Boreman had been allowed but $000 and Caldwell & Caldwell $500 for their services in cases involving the right to tax the Baltimore & Ohio and Panhandle railroad bridges across the Ohio, and wanted to know if the discrimination was simply because these men did not live in Charleston. Mr. Whitaker referred to Gen. Watte' request for the fee as an exhibition of cheek. The debato was pending whon the House at G o'clock took a recess until 7:30. At the evening session Mr. Whitaker accepted an amendment offered by Mr. Woods, to omit the clause concerning Col. White, it being explained that Col. White had no claim on the State and did not want to be considered in connection with the matter. Mr. Hagans moved to allow Gen. Watta $20 00. Judge Hoke opposed any reduction, and said there "must be improper influences brought to bear" on tho other aide. This brought Mr. Hagans to his feet. He thought his motives had been impugned. Judge Hoke explained that this was not the case, and Mr. Hagans "rccepted his apology." *"Mr. Toler advocated the cut in the appropriation in a characteristic speech. Mr. Brown also favored tho reduction. A good deal of fun was gotten out of the matter, and finally Mr. Kinsey demanded the previous question. Mr. Hagans' 8mencimont was rejected, and Mr. Woods moved to make it $1,GQ0. This was alao loat and after noma suggestions aa to the desirability ol hastening action on the bill, Mr. Whitaker. withdrew the $1,200 proposition, and Mr. Kidd moved aa a compromise to "make it $2,500. Mr. Gorrell at onco moved to make it $l,S00. This was adopted by a vote of 31 to 30. Mr. Kidd then moved to cut down exGovernor Boremau's and Caldwell & Caldwell's fees from $500 to $300. This croatod another long debate, and at length Mr. Kidd withdrew hia amend ment, Dr. iienBley demanded the previofis question on ordering tho bill to its engrossment and third reading, and it was bo ordered.

Homo Stirring Spoechus Miulo In the Joint Aaiiemhly, Special DUpatch to the Intelligencer, Charleston, W. Va., Feb. 24.?When the joint assembly opened to-day Mr. Hamilton again placed In nomination Mr. Johnson N. Oamden. He said ho had heard it said on the lloor in this joint assembly that tho session would ond without tho election of a Senator, but ho nevor bo* llovcd it for this Legislature was Bent hero by tho peoplo to elect a United States Sonator and not to defeat the election,of one.' The peoplo regardless to tho party wanted to Bee ono elected, He hoped it would bo the pleasuro of this assembly to elect Mr. Johnson N. Camden as it was their duty to elect somebody, Mr. Dawson named a man in every way fitted for the position of United States Seuator, Hon. Nathan GofT, of Harrison county. Mr. Dawson said it may be that 1 we are charged with tho duty of olectini? n United States Senator, but I understand, i Mr. President, that that trust was placed in the hands of the Democratic party of this State*. There was a contest before the voters of tho State us to which party Bhould bo chargod with tho duty of electing a Unitod States Senator and that duty was placed in the hands of tho Democratic party and if that party cannot perform that truBt it is no business of tho Republican party. I should like to know, sir. by what code of ethics, political or otherwise I am to prove recreant to my principles and the principles of tho Republican party and vote for a man whom his own party will not elect. That I 'am to vote for a member of the Standard Oil Company because forsooth a number of Democratic gentlemen refuse to BUDDOrt hiai it ia tllH mnnfc wmawtna proposition I ever heard; that I should betray my principles, ray party and myself to elect a man whom his own party will not elect! No, sir; I take it that the Republican party will stand by their flag, i Mr. President, and by their'gune, by their ; principles, and if this Legislature adjourns without electing a United States Senator 1 we will put the responsibility upon the i party that is charged with that duty by ! the people. If you want a United States Senator elected put tho Republican party in power and they will elect him." Tho vote stood: Camden, 41; Nathan GoQ', 30; James D. Armstrong, 11; A. R. Barbee, 5; W. H. H. Flick, 3; Lewis S. Newinau, 1. Mil. SYDER CHANGES. Senator Snyder voted for Mr. A. W. Campbell, but before the vote was announced he aroao and changed his vote to Camden. In doing this he said: "I want to change my vote, and doing so I dcsiroto make a remark or two." When ho arose 1 tho hall became as still as death, and when he had proceeded thus far there was a slight ripple of applause and then all : again became as Bilent as if nobody were J in the room. "I have no speech to make. 1 neither have I any apology to offer, but 1 claim that I am violating no plighted faith when I say to this joint assembly that in tho first caucus held by tho Republicans of this Legislature I then and there 1 declared that certain contingencea might j arise under which I would vote for John- r son N. Camden for the United States Sen- . ate. It strikes mo that those contingencies are here." (Applause, mingled with hisses.) There is no hope of electing a Republi- 1 can. If anybody had any hope of that. I had too much Bonse to have any hope of ( electing a Republican in a Democratic Legislature. (Laughter.) This Question now is narrowed down to two Democrats. 1 It is true, Mr. President, that tho Demo- 1 cratic party has a majority of this joint 1 assembly and could have elected a United 1 States Senator if they were not so con- j trary. (Laughter.) But as they are con- ' trary, it does not satisfy my conscience in : this matter that there is no responsibility 1 resting upou me. It will not do for me 1 nor for any other man from my stand- * point to lack the moral courage at this 1 crisis to como up, sir, and as we sometimes say, 'face the music.' It does not do to say that I am not responsible for any of 1 these results. I say, sir, I am responsible ag far as one vote goes for the result of this 1 election. I for one, have the moral couiage, sir, to assist my manhood upon this ] floor, instead of shifting and shirking that responsibility and placing it in the hand^ of another man to do what I was afraid to 1 do. t AN AMUSING COLLOQUY. [ Mr, McKinney?"How much moral courage does it take to desert a man's 113g i in tue lime oi battle?" (Wild applause j on the Republican Bide.) j Mr. Snyder?I waa a Rapublican before i ho waa born. (Cheero.) Mr. Morria?"Mr. President, I don't believe be ia one now." (Applause.) 1 Mr. Snyder?I don't propose to be die- j tated to in relation to my coureo by a pro- i fesaional bolter of the Republican purty. e (Great laughter and applause.) When- ! ever my Republican friends want to have i a picnic out of me I would prefer it should l not bo for tho amusement of the Dorao- ( cratc party. (Liughter.) I hold myself responsible for tho action I will take. I t do not propose, as I have juet remarked I hero to get up a picnic for tho amusement 1 of my Democratic friends. IwilljuBtal- 1 ludo to one thing: If thero had been a 1 little more "boodle" in Uncle Sam's Treasury thero would have been a Uaited' t States .Senator elected long ago. This cry ? of boodlo and coalf oil monopoly is a clap trap to scare the timid. I am not a very brave man, but that doea not scare me. j At the proper time and propor place I am prepared to vindicate my course before 5 any reasonable constituency. Then if ray Rapublican friends want to have a picnic I will gratify them to tJleir hearts content, t This is a question, sir. whether I Bhall i help elect a Democrat United State3 Sena- 1 tor, or whether one man shall elect him. It is a queacion whether the ninety-one mombers of this assembly shall elect him 1 or whether one men shall elect him, < THE HITTER OF FROTECTJOS. ] xs guea luttuot wivu uie.

But the only reason I care to assign to the audience why I vote as 1 am going to vote is that I prefer to vote for a Democrat I know, than \ for one I don't know. I prefer to select j my own man instead of letting aorae one \ else select him for me. I have already | said perhapa all that my Republican frienda , desire to hear from me. I vote for Johnaon N. Camden." j Mr. Dawson aroae when the appoal and j hisses.which greoted tho close of Senator , 8nvder's speech had subsided, and said: , "Mr. President, I desire to change my , voto." This caused aome surpriae, though , nearly everybody knew tho propoBed chango was merely a pretext for a speech in response to Senator Snyder and so it proved, Mr. Dawson continued: dawson's rbplt. I belong to the same district as tho Senator from Monongalia, He was a Republican perhapa beforo I was born, but whether he is a better Republican than I am now In voting (or Mr. (Camden I '| bIibII lcnvo it to the people o! tlio Tenth J District to decldo, a district composed ol the grand olii counties ol Preston and s Monongalia. The gentleman says ho breaks no plighted faith in voting for Camden. 1 Bay hero ho conld not have A been Fleeted hud we kuowu that he would voto for Camden. I ear tho election ot Camden was a square Iruuo in Preston county and that tho Senator never could havo been nominated if wo had known he was going to turn on us In this manner. I say ho violates the confidence of the Its- . publicans of Monongalia county and of 10 the Republicans of 1'reston county. I havo always had great respect for my pi aged friend, but that ho has mnde a mistake to-day I have no doubt, That he has .. violated tho confidence of tho ltepubll- u cans of 1'reston county placed in him I si know. I voto for W. H. H. Flick. (Ap- hi ^ Mr.Toler arose anil said: "Mr. IVosl- " uum, x vulvu 10r ur. .uftruuu. i uefliro 10 change my vote." ?' The clerk called his name. to "I now voto for the Hon.

He said though he was ^ here as a Republican ho believed that if jo ha returned to his people without doing as ho did and as he felt it to be hia duty to "J do, they would not look upon him with pc approval. He was cheered and his3ed, Y the President pounding for order in vain. .. Once or twice during the excitoment of i J tho session President Price had to bo very 1C Bmphatie in calling for order. Mr. Somraeryille moved that tho assem- }V blv nrccoed to take another ballot. Mr- ^ Uayinond moved to adjoarn which took procedonce. The ayes and noes were de? PJ raanded and the vote resulted 44 ayes to P( 40 noea. This looked favorable for Mr. JjJ Camden, but the second ballot Bhowed no . pain.

Nkw Youh, Feb. 23.?'Tho Sun ban tho How-inn spocial (rom Washington: Senator Sherman's resignation ol his isltlon ill President ot th? Benito is genrally accoptod as bin lint open dcclaradu ol his Presidential candidacy, and a Itnal to his supporters and Irlonds that 3 is in the Held (or himeolf, and that his impilgn has formally opened. Sherman's lieutonants have boonputag In 6omo quiet but very effective work r some months, and tlio results have eatly oncouragod thorn. This movement Mr. Shermau's, who rarely makes politi1 mistakes, will still further encourage em. Mr. 8herman accepted the Prcaitncy when it was a good advortlsemont rhim. Ho leaves it when it is just as iod an advertisement for him to do so. e is now loft free to attend to his own ?litical fencoa, which reach from Now ork to Mansfield, 0. In view of the prominence into which r. Sherman is coming as a candidate in iSS, the political situation in Ohio bonnes interesting. For thirty yoara Ohio is supportod Sherman, and kept him to ie front in the liou3e, and in tho Bono, and in tho Treasury; but every time s name has como up for the Presidency ) has failed to obtain a solid delegation )m his State in a National Convention, i long as Ohio refuses to support him ith an undivided delegation he has small lancefor nomination. The appearance dicatee that next year Ohio will send a lid delegation for Sherman, and that tho (legation will stick by him to the last. In his long career as chief manager of iiio Federal patronage, ho has, of course, ade many enemies, and they have had Qlciont strength to divide the dologa)ns to the National conventions. When o Republicans went out oi power Sheran was relioved from his trouble, and hen ho could no longer command patron ;e, and it was no longer expected oi him, e Ohio Republic ana began, to think oro freely at bia real merits and recogze the fact that he waa the only man ft that could restore the old political eatigo of the State. Back of Sherman, as a commanding ;ure, is a horde of more or less able genjmen who would be glad to eee him out tho way in order that they may have a ance for advancement. Thoy have mo to tho conclusion that the only way do bo is to make him President, if pusale, and now Mr. Shermeu baa tho adtional strength of self-interest among ch men as Foraker, Foster, Butterworth, eifer, McKiuley, Hayes, Cox, Bingham d others. The goal all these gentlemen ek is the U. S. Senate, and between em and that body the figure of John lerman always looms up. OPENLY AVOWED CANDIDATES. The openly avowed candidates for tho nate, and the men who will fiupporfc r. Sherman, are Foraker, Foster, Butterarth and McKinley. They know that long as Mr. Sherman desires to remain tho Senate the Ohio poople will keefc> oa there, and that their only hope is in liting to push him up instead of pushing mout. It may be said upon tho befit authority, at Governor Foraker dooa not desire the !ce Presidency, but would like to repreat his State in the United States Senate, d look from that standpoint into tho fu- , re; and that ho recognizeo that the part 1 wusuuiu ia iu book mat piace, ana oy , iRg hia beat ior Sherman, get him out ' hia way, and possibly have a warm , end in tho next President. In conversation Governor Foraker de98 that he has any arrangement with 1 aine, and declares that he will not make y, and that he will be for Sherman lether he goes as delegate-at-large, disct delegate, or upon tho outaido. This the stand for all Foraker takes, and tho ' e he says he will hold. Ex-Governor Foster is not as much of a : litical factor in the State as ho once was lenhe defeated General Thomas Eying ! 1879 for tho Governorships a plurality over seventeen thousand votes. He is the political ideal of the party, and , thing short of the Presidency was p rested for him. ' When Garfield was nominated at Ohi?o the fact added to Fester's power and : sstige, and up to the time of Garfield's ath he was looked upon as a power be- | ad the throne. Ho had served with disiguiahed success in National affairs for ; ;ht years, but was comparatively un- , niliar with State'politics. Ehe paseage of the prohibition amend rnt in Iowa and tho election of St. John j Kansas, misled him as to the drift of inion, and ho believing that a great pro}ition wavo'was about to sweep over tho intry, and that it was the proper wave j mount, took that coursg. Ho turned ay tho solid German Republican vote, , lichia tho balance of power in Ohio; med tho vote of Hamilton county from * 00 Republican in one election to 10,000 ( imocratic in the next; turning himself t of oilice and power, and turned a imccratic Administration iu. It should ] Hiua mai vury policy m ueauug witn " ) liquor question that retired Foster and * i party in 1834 is now the eatubliahed ) d successful policy of tho party in the i ite. there ia apparent friendliness between erman and Foster, but it ia not more in akin and policy deep. They do not rticulnrly like cach other poraonally. Foater haa always been a Blaine man, j d in the Convention of 1SS0 expectod to necond upon tho ticket if Blaine was minated. Ho ia highly ambitious to some a Senator, and no doubt will very rneatly anpport Sherman next year. [n the Convention of 1880 Garileld and Bter, who were elected delegates-atge, aa Sherman boomers, roomed to;her in the Bamo hotel in Chicago. It iB lieved that Mr. Sherman never felt ite satisfied in his mind aa to the loyalty their support, though he had himaelf blame lor having the worat crowd of tediluvian workera ever Been in a itional Convention then. rhese gentlemen were ex-Governor Denion, Brother-in-law Moulton, General aring, General,Warner Bateman, B. J. omis and others. It is known that a egram was sent from the Garfield-Fos room, three dayB before the nominan, saying: "General Garfield will be e nominee of this Convention." The egram was eubmitted to General GarId and ho consented to its being sent. After the Convention there waa a very arp correspondence between Mr. Sherin and Governor Foster, which left me scars, bat resulted in the declaration mi Senator 8herman that ho believed ister and Garfield had been truo to him, ,t had been unable to stem the tide of thusiaam for Garfield. Just after this : rrespondenco Fo3ter became a candidate r the Senate against Sherman. FOSTER AND GARFIELD. This was while Garfield was at Mentor. le public sentiment was ia favor of lerman, but tho General Assembly was voted to Foster, and at last it began to pear that ho would bo elected. Then Lerman took tho alarm and bo did Garild. About this timo Mr. Tom Nichol ipeared in Oolumbus as tho accredited presentatiYO of both Sherman and Gar Hold. Ho had nn ?1l-nliiht Intervlow with Governor Foalor, and nt lout obtained from him a reluctant agreement to withdraw from tho contest, although ho then nasertud that a majority of the members ol tho Legislature were pledgtd to Jiia Buppoit. It was the Implied understanding that 1 Govornor Foster wm to bo given a placo In tlm Gartlold Cabinet, preeuiuably that of PcHtmaater General. ! Just before thla Gr.rlleld had wrltton to Foster, saying that he did not think they couli afford tu smiernnnuata Hhormah, and suggested that Hhertnnn bo allowed to go back to thu Senate, and that ho [Cos- ' tor] bo Riven tho Ohio nitronngo and run | again for Governor. What Foster wanted | was that Sherman should bo mmle Hecre- ( tary of the Troaiury, anil ho [ Foster] tako , bin place In tho Senate. c In tho end Garfield left Foster out of tho B fiahlnnt nnil Vnufnr ran a?aln /?? Bgwu.ui UUYOIUUI and beat Bookwalter by 25,000 plurality. ? After that 'Foster went into tho toraporance matter, and favored such legislation aa enabled Hoadly to boat Foraker, turn j, over tho State to the Democrats, and mako Mr. Payne tho Senator in place of Mr. Pendleton. Just now it appears that all the diflier- a encoa will bo arranged, tho heart burning n assuaged and Mr. Sherman socuro what he j, has novor had before, a united delegation. If Mr. Sherman should become President * thero will bo a scramble among tho Ohio u politicians on tho principle of every roan t! for himBelf. b it iB generally understood that Mr.- ii 8herman in tho fnturo will abandon his ti old plan of running his own campaign, ti and intrust its management to some singlo n person, after tho mannor of Blaino with a ElkinB and Cleveland with Manning. It u is said Congressman A. 0. Thompson, of p Ohio, will bo tho first Lieutenant in the q management of Sherman's atTairo. tl Tho Shermau men claim a solid delega- v tion from Ohio, and the same from every * New England Stato except Maine. Vir- q ginla will be given to Sherman by Ma- a hone in return for Sherman's aid in his a last campaign, and West Virginia, Ken- n tucky, Tennessee, Alabama. North Oaro- v Una anil Goorgia are claimed by Sherman d men. Some leading New York llepubli- 1< cans assert that Sherman can divide the delegation witii?a majority for him, and a that the Indiana delegation will be in the t< same condition. - tl Sherman looks upon this as his last a chanco with tho conditions more favor- n able than ever before, and the most of the Bituation will bo made. It is hinted that n ati arraugemeut between Sherman's pre- b mier, ia not impossible, and it is believed tho Sherman mon would gladly consent to v Buch an understanding. cl t] MACDONALD SUCCEEDS v In Defeating tho Opposition in Cn?mlu-Iulluenco of tho Klectiou. k Ottawa, Ont., Feb. 24.?Tho corrcctsd returnB from all parts of Canada Rive tho present Conservative Administration a p majority of 19.

Tho vote on tho adoption of he substitute (133 to 123) was too close to tamp tho House as being unqualifiedly in ivor of its own destructive proposiion, and tho Conference Commitae in discussing tho mattor can ot fail to take the fact into consideration.

With unanimous Senate in favor of its own leasuro and a House very uncertain and erv much divided in opposition, it is not illicult to predict a result in conference janing to tho Senate side. It is pofisiblo even that the Senate bill lay be reported again from this commitio, thougn it is more likely that some of le features of tho Belmont bill will be dded, not to change the purpo&o of the lG&snre. hnfc nnni?r??* ?? ? ?- ? uuiikooaiuu ) the opiaionu of the H0U30.

These proisions will naturally bear tho brunt of ae attack in tho conforenco committee, ut they may be made acceptable by lere changes in the wording. When once ' ie substitute was agreed to, the bill as :ius amended was passed by a vote of 252 ) 1.
