President-elect Cleveland arrived in Wash ington at the dawn of day. but no one was up to receive him except a few small news boys and the ever-present reporter.

Tue Nation stands silent before the cere monies nt Washington to-day and the eyes of the whole country are turned toward the national capital. It is an epoch in American history. It has been twenty-four years siuce the last Democratic president left the White house. Daring all that period what an event ful volume of the country's history has been written ! The Republican party for a quarter of a century has been in control of all the de partments of the government and it has sought to persuade the people that its su premacy was absolutely essential to national existence. The eye runs over the panorama of Republican ascendency and sees the most gigantic struggle that the horrified world ever witnessed, a furious war between colossal brothers, great in genius, wealth, strength and courage; a duel to the death between de termined millions, and when fought to ex haustion the generous victor wept in sym pathy and brotherhood over the ruined and heroic vanquished. Then followed tbe orgie of reconstruction when partisanship, cruelty, greed and robbery ruled the hour. Close in succession came the lesracies of the war — much to be proud of and a jrreat deal to be ashamed of. Great events and mighty men have appeared in the historic arena — some arose to immortality and some have dropped into everlasting disgrace and obscurity. This day inaugurates a change of policy as well as a change of men. The party which has so long been excluded from the execu tive department of the eovernmeut will take control. If the new regime lives rigidly up to the promises of its leaders and the expec tation of its friends the change will be for the better. Tbe Democratic party is being put on trial. It is not the mere installation of a president that calls together the vast con course of people at the capital to-day and will make this inauguration eclipse in splen dor and magnitude all of its predecessors. There is something more important than that. It is the beginning of a new era — the turn iug over of a new national leaf. It closes one volume of American history and opens a new one, and we trust a better one. It is fortunate for the Democratic party, in its first test of party sincerity, that it has chosen its. best representative to commend it to the approbation of the country. The man who is to be inaugurated to-day is a national man, one who while applying the best Dem ocratic principles to the administration of the government will hold his patriotism and conscience above the reach of politics. Free from factional shackles and unem barrassed by pledges or obligations in the chief magistracy of the country, Grover Cleveland will give to the Republic tbe|honest and earnestand patriotic service he has the ability and courage to ren der. Fortunately for him and for the coun try he'lias no contact with Washington life and its Intrigues, and is not hampered with personal and political associations. By hold ing duty paramount in the public service he will commend himself to the approval of all good men of every creed and connection, and in doing so will elevate and strengthen the great party which honored him. This is a big day for the national Dem ocracy and it is no wonder that jubilant Democrats are rushing to Washington this morning to witness an event in which as partisans as well as patriots they have an abiding interest. And every throb of the national pulse at the capital to-day will vi brate through the telegraph to every part of the country and meet a response in the popu lar bosom. It will be a thrillinc day for the country. For the first time in almost a genera tion there will be installed Into office, not the president of a party, either Democratic or Republican, but a man who will be president of the whole United States. Mr. Blame took the stump last fall. Mr. Cleveland takes the chair of office to-day. It U a pity that those demagogues who pre tend to believe in the coinage of silvcrshould not he made to take and ta'M it at every possible op portunity. — Detroit Free Press. If the bonanza man of the Free Press wants to empty bis plethoric purse of the cart wheel dollars there are whole counties of people iv Miunesota would be glad of the opportunity to take and hold on to all the silver shekels tbat can be turned out. That kiud of an argument doesn't daunt the friends of silver coinage a particle. Mr. Cleveland-; cabinet may not be sat isfactory to everybody, but it must be admit ted that Lamai: as secretary of the interior will be an improvememt on Stephen B. Elkins. Pope L*M>*(l response to the address of the French workingmen is brimful of good ad vice. "Nothing good," he says, "can arise from exciting workingmen to hate their pro prietors and the rich. The remedy for the evils of the worker's lot is to be found in as sociations and co-operation, and the render ing mutual assistance in cases of sickness and death." Poor Mr. Reagan and Mr. Mills will have to sit in back pews to-day while the inaugur ation ceremonies are progressing. It is a hard fate for such distinguished deacons, but the rules of the church must be observed. SKCRETART LAMAR. There seems to be universal regret am on;: senators that Mr. Lamar is to be lost to that body by his transfer to the cabinet. The feeling of regret is«s intense among Repub licans as it is among hi* Democratic friends. Senator Allison, one erf the leaders on the Republican side of the senate, pays a worthy tribute to the distinguished Mississippian when he says: "LaJUI Ii a great man. well informed, has knowledge of public affairs, gentlemanly, dignitied, kind-hearted and as honest as he is able." Senator Bowen speaks of him as "a great conservative fac tor" in the senate. Mr. I.avar is exceedingly negligent in his toilet and quite absent-minded. Speaking of hit absent-mindedness a few days ago a Republican senator said tbat '-it would be just like I.AMAR,aftor getting into the cabinet, to forget himself, go to the capitol, take his old seat in the senate and make a speech tbat neither Mr. Inoalls nor Mr. Hoar could answer. An.', we should all be so much inter ested that nobody would want to stop him." The golden rose, which Is to cross the At lantic for the first time in honor of Miss Cv dwell, wbo contributed $300,000 to found a Catholic university in the United is an ornament made of wrought gold and set with gems, which is blessed by the pope on the fourth Sunday of Lent, and afterward is usually sent as a mark of special favor to some distinguished individual, some church or civil community. The ceremonies which at presmt accompany the consecration of a golden rose are of a very elaborate char acter, and are explained by liturgists as de signed to make it especially emblematic of r and the Christian graces- Pope Uh b in V., who sent a colden rose to Joanna of Naples in 1336, is alleged to be the first pope t9 determine that ita consecration should be annually observed. Among the many recip ients of the honor have been Kenrt VDX of England. Gonsalto Dl Cordova and Na poleon HL of France.

This is Evacuation Day at Washington. The ceremonies will be attended with all the rejoicings which the conquering forces usually display and tbe solemnities which mark the departure of the surrendered gar rison. Shouts of victory will mingle with the wail of lamentation. It will be a toueh iug sight to see the great army of Republican Office holders marching out of the depart ments with drooping banners, muflled drums, and all the sorrowful paraphernalia of a van quished legion. The caricature artist gives in last Sunday's New York World a faithful sketch of the anticipated scene. It is a mot ley-looking crowd of public jobbers stalking forth iv discordant column with back toward the capitol upon whose doors are inscribed the legend, "Closed for Disinfectiutr," while with bowed head and sorrowful countenauce they march toward the setting sun. Away in the distance are the indistinct forms of the vanguard disappearing out of sight.the device on their banners showing they belonged to rings representing guano and Venezuela frauds, Indian steals, De Golter swindles, and frauds of the custom house and depart ments of justice and pensions. Just behind tbe disappearing van column goes another battalion in plain view. In this column can be seen the shadowy figures of Howgate, Phillips, Macdonald, and Bcrnside, the postoffice thief. The Sanborn contract ban ner floats to the breeze, while the credit mo bilier and the supreme court purchase en signs have a more modest showing. Next in the retreating column is seen the funeral hearse with its sable plumes and cypress drap ery, in wbich are borne the remains of thf^ Grand Old Party. Prominent among the pall-bearers are Brady and Belknap, and Dorsey and Clapp. Following in the rear are the mourners, chief of whom is a Plumed Knight, with one hand convulsively grasping an anchor of hope attached to the funeral car, while in the other is held a grip sack, labelled "Twenty Years in Coneress," from which suspends the superstitious sym bol of luck — a golden horse-shoe. Looking up into the pale face of the vanquished knight is the upturned and tearful eyes of Soap Elkins, holding in his arms a large box of bis favorite laundry commodity, wbile Attorney General Brewster squats behind, stealthily slipping Little Rock stocks and bonds into the open grip sack. In tbe mourning division little Johnny Roach cries because there are no more fat navy contracts, while he bends to the task of pulling a dog cart in which the United States navy is being hauled, Secretary Chandler sitting on the box and forlorn -looking Robeson pushing tbe tiny vehicle which is carrying all of his hopes to tbe crave. The rear guard consists of Com missioner Evans wearing a whisky ring col lar, Adjutant General Swalm with his brok er's bag in band, and poor imbecile-looking Keifer, tbe glossy essence of congressional folly. To-day will witness the scene which the artist In anticipation has so happily sketched. It is tbe Yorktown of tbe spoilsmen. The ereat army of public jobbers and public rob bers will ground arms and furl their banners forever. Their guns have been spiked, their fortifications captured, and the victors take possession of the fort. — "O, snch a day, So fought, so followed, and so fairly won." But with it all the victors will have to re member that It is not victory to wiu the field unless the enemy is made to yield more to justice than to force. It is singular to find in the New York Tribune a story to the effect that Blame and Elkins lost $00,000 in the Hocking valley speculation ; that the projector, Lee, has a chance of reorganizing the scheme, but that he cannot move band or foot until he pays off Blame and Elkins. How about those letters written by Mr. Blame last fall deny ing that he held or ever did hold a dollar's Interest in the Hocking valley? There is a discrepancy somewhere. The Republican papers are twitting Mr. Manning that during the last canvass the Albany Argus kept at the bead of its editorial columns these words: "The tariff not an" issue." We think it very desirable that the secretary of the treasury should be Impressed with the idea that practical and thorough ad ministrative reform" was the real issue upon which Mr. Cleveland was elected. Mr. Manning is level-headed and will know his business. Thr Democratic Sun rises to-day with healing on his wings. APROPO3 to the great event of to-day tbe Atlanta Constitution says. "It may be well said that the party that has descended from the rugged greatness of Lincoln to the gentlemanly deportment of Arthur is typical of the decadence of the Republicans from the lean and gmewy war party of '61 to the pampered coalition nf '81, and that It deserved the defeat It courted in these latter days as the victory it conquered in those earlier days." Mr. Lincoln was the most typical Ameri can president this country has ever had. His "rugged greatness" made him the central figure of the troublous times he was presi dent. Next to Lincoln Mr. Cleveland has before him the greatest task any president ever assumed, and before he gets through the laborious work of administrative reform be may feel as Mr. Lincoln once expressed his feelings, when be said: "Many a time have I been forced npon my kne-?s by the overwhelming conviction that 1 had nowhere else to go. My own wi«dora and that of all about me seemed so insufficient to the occasion." Or when a9ked if a vacation of a few days had rested him : "Well, res, I feel better. Bnt somehow it don't appear to touch the tired spot, which I suppose can't be sot at." Discussing the duties of his office, he said: "Sitting here where all the avennes of public patronage heem to come together in a knot, it does seem to me that our people are fast approaching the point where seven eighths of them are trying to live at the expense of the other eighth." DAKOTA'S CAPITAL FltiHT. Tub capital removal club was swung about with reckless disregard of results to interested parties in tbe assembly at Bismarck yesterday. Tbe bill was amended so as to take effect May 1, and the opposition bucked and gagged by tbe previous question method of parliamentary legerdemain. The only resource the North Dakota men bad in self-defense was for one friend of the present location to vote aye on the passage of the bill, to entitle him to move a reconsideration of tbe vote. Then, taking the aggressive, they moved thst W ells and Pren tice of Pierre be investigated on a charge of corruption, charging tbat they had attempted to bribe members to vote for removal in the interest of their town. The council may pass the removal bill, but in that event it is likely that Gov. Pierce would veto it. This would kill it, as the constitutional ma jority could not be secured to override tbe executive disapproval. As long as President Arthur was going to put Hazen under arrest why didn't be do it early enough to avoid all this hard winter. There was enough of Jacesonian sim plicity about Cleveland's appearance in Washington to satisfy tbe most Democratic taste. The Republican campaign charge against ' Mr. Cleveland, that be bad never been to Washington, bas no longer any force. He is there now. Ir Secretary Lincoln is makinsr up a ree ' ■ ord as a candidate for mayor of Chicago be struck it wron* in the Hazen triaL Carte* Harrison could take up the Greelt mat ' I ter aud beat the secretary to deato. AMATEUR LEGISLATION. Mayor O'Brien's letter to the city council relating to the redistrictlng scheme now be fore the legislature is a square-toed docu ment. He calls the attention of the bo ly to the dauger of "amateur legislation," and very forcibly points out the dauger to im portant public iuterosts in the event the re disricting bill is passed. The board of pub lic works and the board of education would be "knocked out" if the bill which passed the lower brauch»of the legislature should be adopted iv its present crude form, and all the assessments for the next two years inval idated. The mayor very truthfully says that the city charter is too complicated and vol uminous to be made the subject of amateur legislation. There can be no disagreement with the mayor In his proposition that every amendment to the city charter should be con sidered by the council and the law offi cers of the city before being submitted to the legislature for its action. This is evidently 60 common-sense a view of it that eveu the advo cates of the scheme for redistrietiug the city under the proposed law must admit its force and soundness. We will have no weather now. "Proba bilities" is under arrest. This will be a sad day in tbe history of Miss Gail Hamilton's life. The bill asking the appropriation of $3,500 to pay for printing the Minnesota State Board of Immigration exposition pamphlet in for eign languages, prepared at the instance of the house committee on immigration, passed the house without a dissenting voice or vote, but was reported on adversely by the finance committee of the senate. It certainly looks bad tbat a bill receiving unanimous support in one branch of the legislature, the purpose of which is to place the state in an advanta geous light in foreign countries, should have been thus defeated. The sending abroad of a small descriptive pamphlet, to which the board has hitherto been compelled to resort, is not likely to receive the attention and re spect of the most desirable class of emigrants, while the revised edition of the illustrated pamphlet would not only attract attention generally, but would convey to tbe minds of those who have capital to invest a clear im - pression of the resources of the state; and will be a far more judicious expenditure of money. It will hardly be disputed that many people who have resided several years in the state have expressed their gratification with the illustrated pamphlet and confessed that its recital of the resources of the state as tonished even them. We hope the senate will reconsider its action and pass the bill. President Arthur knows bow to reward his friends and-punish his enemies. ARTHUR'S LAST SLAP. President Arthur distinguishes the last day of his administration by ordering the ar rest of Gen. Hazen, chief of the signal bu reau, for a breach «of military etiquette in having audacity enough to criticise the sec retary of war for delaying the departure of an expedition to the relief of the Greely party. According to the red-tape rules of the depart ments and the severe discipline of military law technically Gen. Hazen is guilty of the charge preferred against him, but according to every principle of humanity he is justified in his criticism . If the war department be lieved it possible to rescue the Greely party there should bave been no delay in sending out the relief expedition, and is properly the subject of severe criticism. While the pub lic has had a good many complaints to lodge against "Young Probabilities" on account of the weather, public sympathy will probably be with him in this emergency. The ARTncR-LiNCOLN combination is strong even in death. It was inspired of a mutual dislike of the chief of the signal ser vice. But the president was fair in appoint ing a court of officers of distinguished rank, marked ability and fairness. The new ad ministration will pass upon the finding of the court and the officer in suspension will get a fair deal. It is perhaps well that the court was ordered, for the charges have been bandied back and forth with reckless aban don, and it will be some satisfaction to have the question settled by .1 competent court. lowa Auditor Bone Wrong. Df.s Moinks, la., March 8. — Gov. Sherman this afternoon served a notice on Auditor Brown suspending him from office, and ap pointing J. W. Cottell, formerly auditor of state, auditor protein. The notice states the suspension is made because of Brown's failure and refusal to account for certain moneys and property of the state intrusted to him as auditor. Cottell, who has filed his bond, accompanied the officer serving the notice, ready to take possession of the office, but Brown refused to surrender the office or books and papers. It Is understood the g >vernor had the office of auditor examined bj a commis sion, tbat com mission reported the state of facts which made it necessary for the gov ernor to suspend the auditor. Matters ol alleged delinquency on the auditor's part, on which the governor has acted, has nothing to do with complaints made against Brown In connection with tbe examination of Insur ance companies. The commission did not inquire into that matter, but only Into the detailed management of his office and ac counts. Brown says the complsinta against bis office are unfounded: that the governor has no power to suspend him, and that be will resist in the courts and has employed counsel to that end. It Is said the governor will arrest him in tbe morning if he shall attempt totals charge of his office. Po9fmaster at M'orhead. Short in His Accounts Special to the Globe. Faroo, March 3. — It is learned this even ing that Postmaster Douglas of Moorhead is short about $1, 500, which has beeu made giK)d by his bondsmen, Mess*. Erickson, Mackali and Burnham.

EXCITING DAY AT THE CAPITAL. Au Immense Concourse of People—To day's Program. Spec ial to the Globe. Washington, March 8. — The number of people arriving to-day and to-night far ex ceeds all anticipation, and it is admitted it is the largest concourse ever gathered in Wash ington. Military and civic associations are parading, headed by bands of music and a mass of humanity. Men, women aud children are singing along Pennsylvania avenue and other frequented streets. Travel is almost impossible. One noticeable fea ture is the excellent humor pervailing and the enthusiasm seems to be general. The' hotel corridors are crowded to repletion and the jam will be much greater to-morrow. Trains bearing visitors will arrive all night and up to the hour of noon to-morrow, and RAILROAD OFFICIALS ESTIMATE that at least 25,000 people will come from Baltimore alone. Every neighboring section in Virginia, West Virginia and Maryland is well represented by leading citizens and organizations wearing distinctive badges. Meetings are being held to-night to bring order out of the apparent chaos, so that no break may occur in the pa rade to-morrow, for tbe unparalleled success of which the chief marshals and aids are devot ing their best energies. The weather to— night is as balmy as spring, and tbe signal service bureau confidently predicts a pleasant day. Upon this largely depends the happiness and comfort of the many thousands. The prep arations for the inaugural ball and supper are very complete, but there is a ■well-founded rcmor to-nigbt that large numbers of counterfeit tickets have been prepared to be put on the market and sold at a premium, as the issue of tickets has been nearly exhausted. Prep arations have been made by contractors to fur nish supper to 8,000 people. Eight cooks with several assistants were busy at work in and about the kitchen to-day. Barrel after bar rel was rolled in and emptied, and as soon as the shelves were filled with crockery ware, the cooks were at the table preparing their salads and dressings, while others were get ting out and putting in shape tbe decorative pieces. There are quite a number of these, handsome in design and finish, and they can't fail to add to the attractiveness of the tables. The supper room starts from the main door on the G street side of tbe building and taking in all the intersecting rooms around midway of the buildiug on the Fourth street side. The tables have been placed at a fa i_;ht to make it convenient to eat while standing, and it also does away with the ne cessity for chairs and prevents the lumbering up of the room to that extent. Another and more potent reason is that persons will not tarry as long if they have to stand as they would if comfortably seated, aud their quick departure makes room for others desirous of coming to supper. AT THE DAWN OF DAY- Cleveland's Arrival at the Capital— Ky His Own Oesire There was No One to Welcome Hi in. Washington, March 3. — At 7 o'clock this morning, when the mists of the night still dung around the Baltimore & Ohio depot, aud but few persons were out, the special train bearing President-elect Cleveland and ids party drew up on a sidetrack in the depot The committee of citizens appointed by Chairman Corcoran to receive the president elect bad beeu informed by him that he de sired to avoid a public reception and would prefer to receive a visit from the committee at hi 6 hotel. They were also informed yes terday evening by members of the senate designated by Gov. Cleveland as a me dium of further communication, that other aud private arrangements had beeu made for his comfortable reception at the station and conveyance to the hotel, but neverthe less when the party arrived only a few train hands and halt a dozen reporters were pres ent: The president-elect was accompanied by his brother. Rev. L. Cleveland, wife and child, his sisters Mrs. Hoyt and Miss Cleve land* his ncice, Miss Mary Hastings; Mi. and Mrs. Daniel Manning and Col. Daniel Lamont, wife and two children. Alt r a delay of about ten minutps Chairman Barrett and Mr. Gait of the inaugural com mittee put in an appearance and were in troduced to the president-elect. Some twenty minutes were required to secure carriages, ar.d it was ten minutes to 8 o'clock before tbe party disembarked. Meanwhile tbe news of the arrival of the party hid spread, aud a crowd gathered around the Pullman car, "Maranon," and stared hard at the presi dent-elect, who bore their scrutiny with equanimity. When the carriages arrived the party aiighted and proceeded through the waiting room to the nortn entrance, the president-elect leading with Cliairraan Barrett. He wore a blue overcoat and a silk hat ami did not appear to be at all fatigued by his night's journey. Carriages were t-iU'-u and the party proceeded to the Arlington, where a hasty toilet was made and breakfast •erred. The sub-committee appointed by tbe in auguration general reception committee to welcome the president-elect to Washington called on him by appointmentthisaiterooon. Their chairman, Hon. Richard T. Merrick, after introducing his fellow memliers, ex pressed a welcome in a few wcil-chosen words, and Gov. Cleveland felicitously re turned his acknowledgments. An informal conversation ensued for some little time and the committee then indiridu ally took their leave. The membership of the, committee was as follows: Hon. Rich ard T Merrick. H >n. Eppa Hunton. Allen Me Lane, John E. Norris. John W. Thomp son, Hon. Horatio King, Dr. Daniel B. Clarke, Adjf. Gen. Drum. Gen. Hazen, Josiah Dent, David R.

Special to the Globe. Washington, March 3. — Mr. Cleveland had scarcely got through bis breakfast before a stream of callers set in. Seuators Gorman and Garland called and left their cards with out going up to sec Mr. Cleveland. Judge S. W. Courtright of Ohio was among the first callers admitted to see Mr. Cleveland.

Cleveland, a brother of the president-elect and a Presby terian minister at Forest Port,Oneida county, N. Y. Dr. Bartlett is an old friend of Rev. Cleveland, and it was the intention of the latter to stop with bis wife with Dr. Eartlett. He will, however, make Dr. Bartlett a visit after Wednesday.

While he was there, Sec retary McCulloeh called and was at once shown up. Gen. Farnsworth of New York, who has been spoken of as marshal of the district, and Col. Berrett of the inaugural committee were among the callers at this time, and went at once up stairs. Mayor Banks of Albany and Representative Dorsbeimer were among those admitted up stairs, and about half past eleven Hon D*u iel Manning and Senator Gorman called. Gen. Sheridan, accompanied by Col. Sheri dan, Col. Gregory and Capt. Bluntre, called to pay their respects to the president-elect, und had a short interview with him. After these gentlemen came MESSRS. P. It. KBLLY AND STETSON ' of Minnesota, and then Mr. W. C. Whitman of New i ork, and after him Mr. Hendricks aud Seuators Hawley, Sher man and Ransom, tie senate committee on inauguration. The president elect was in a very cheerful state of mind and indulged in some pleasantries.

Vilas, Whitney, Manning and Gor man. At 1 o'clock Mr. Cleveland and his party sat down to lunch in their private dining room It was while they were at lunch that the Couuty Democracy SEKENADKP him. After lunch he paid his respects to President Arthur, and after he got back from there he received callers again for two or three hours. There is a custom not very uniformly observed of the outgoing president dining the incoming president on March 3. It has this advan tage that it enables the future tenant of the White house to try the bill of fare and test the capacity of the cook before it is ever lastingly t'K) late for him to refuse to be inaugurated Andrew Johnson, however, did not invite U. S. Grant to dinner. Mr. and Mrs. Hayes invited Garfield and Arthur. OARFIKLD ACCEPTED and perished inside o{ six months. Arthur had an unpleasantness with Hayes in regard to the management of the New York custom boose, so he refused the invitation and sur vived to be president. Mr. Arthur invited Mr. Cleveland to dine with him to-nlgbt, but the latter seems to have prepared to wait until he was master of the White house and had the power to bow-string the cook and bastinado the waiters before dining in the executive mansion, for he ex cused himself and dined with his own party. After dinner ho held a cabinet meet ing of his own and the aforesaid cabinet con sisted of Mr. Bayard, secretary of state; Mr. Manning, secretary of the treasury; Mr. La mar, secretary of the Interiorr, Mr. Garland, attorney general: Col. Vilas, po.-trna-ter general; Judge Endicott, secretary of war; Mr. Whitney, s-cretary of the navy. There seems no longer any doubt as to the correct ' the names here presented, and it is ttiouzht that the official announcement* of the cabinet will not vary from tbe above. YOUNG AND OLD DEMOCRATS Crowd the Capitol In Their Anxiety to .See the Law Maker* — A Mem orable Darf. WA«niNOTo}«, March 3. — The corridors of the capitol are almost impassable to-day. Dense crowds surround every door of the galleries of the two bouses peering through aod waitii% the departure of more fortunate occupants of seats within. They are com posed for tbe most part of weli-0.-nave-I,well dressed people, and by far the larger half wear overcoats of army blue, tneir red-lined capes thrown back the better to display the buttons and military trappings beneath.

Tney bear their disappointment, however, witn patience not unmixed with painful surprise as the sturdy methodical policemen turn them back and ask their equally uninformed neighbors if any way is open to a free bat untitled Amer ican citizen to g*t where be can see tbe pro cesses of law making. The proceedings to which such as get admission as witnesses are not so well calculated to excite feeling* of reverence as those of earlier days session . Senators and members of the house are worn out with the protracted sessions and the ex citement of the last two or three days and nights, and betray the fact in their uneasy attitudes and sometimes in the unparlia mentary vigor of their expressions.

Hazen had asked to be allowed to go South, so.as to be absent when the letter was received, and until Secretary Lincoln's term ended).
