Mr. Ingalls, for wealth of diction, for
aarcasm. for invectlve, for marvelous
powers of description, for a vocabulary
Blockeu with nn array of strange. pro
tesque and forcible words. has no peer
in American lifei He drew upon all the
reaources of liis vigorous and rasping
vocabulary in deliverinR the extraordi-
nary phlllipplo wliicli was lieard in tlie
Senate. Tlie attendance was a neat
complimeat to Mr. Ingalls. Mo man in
either liouse in Congress has received
auch an ovation as was given to the
Senator froni Kansaa. It has been ex-
peoted for a week tlmt he would speak,
and the gallaries, even upon the uncer
tainty of debate, and in spito of disa
greeablo weather, have been lllled; but
today they were not only packed, but
tho corndors leadtng to them were
densely crowded. About the glass doors
through which but a very scanty 'peep
hole' could be found. there gathered
long lines of men waiting and lioping to
get a glimpse or catoh a word of the
torrent of denunciation which could be
heard liisaing and roaring below. And
the nudience was not composed of
etrangers.the idle and the curlous alone.
The gallaries were fllled with veterans
of tbe Qrand Army, whose cause Jlr.
Ingalls was so clcquently to plead ; hy
scores of old soldiers who were glad to
Ilght their battles over again, by leadere
of society who wished to bear the. man
of whom, in the giddy whirl of Bocial
life so little is seen, and whose words
cut like a Damascus blade. To the ftoor
the public is not admitted. but the ftoor
was packed alniost as ulosely as the gal
leries. Only tlie memhers ot tlie liouse,
ofHcials of the Government and priv
ilege.l persons flnd entrance there. Yet
every seat in the broad chamber was
fllled, and in all of the vacant epaces in
the area back of the Senators' desks
chairs were brought in until tlie cham
ber took on the appearance of an inau
guration day or sorae gre.it state ocra
sion, Conspicuous among those present
coming in just before Mr. Ingalls began
to lake up the case of the old soldiers
and defend them against tho astaults of
the ex Confederates, was the Gencral of
the Union armies, Philip II. Slieridan.
He entered by liis right, he having re
ceired the thanksof Congress. Ile took
a seat where he could get a glinipse at
one of tlie orators of the Senate
who says what he menns and
never has any difliculty in being under
Btood. What Mr. Ingalls said is told below.
He spoke alniost without notes, nioving
about in the space behitul liis desk.
which had been cleared for hlm. He
seemed impelled at every Btep with in
dignation, which incrensed as hu went
forward. He used a fierce invective
md acerbity of expression, to which he
Bouglit to placo no bounds. It will be
said that he ijndeavored to revive sec
tional issues; that ho told the story of
the bloody shirt ovrr ngain: that he at
tetnpted at the threshold of tlie Prcsi
dential campaign to excite the soldier
vote and pose as a PrcBidential candi
date. Whatever may have been Mr.
Ingalls motive there are few men wlio
followed the Union llnc in the last great
contest who will not bo glad to riad his
words.and there are few men any where
who hate shams and who admire cour
age who will not be glad to know that
there is one man in the United States.at
least, whocan stund up and strip tlis-
guises from pretenders, who cin expose
the mawkieh sentimentality of Henry
W. Grady, for instance. He in May,'80,
in Atlanta, ilelivered what Mr. Ingalls
characterized as an 'eulogy coming to
the fronticr of sacrilece and the llne of
blasphemy' on JefTerson Djvis, 'the un
crowned king of the lost cauje,' whose
presence in Allanta on (he event of a
dedication of a monuiiient to Den Hill

best Easter that we have had since
Uhrist rose from the deau.' Ihe satne
Grady, as the apostle of tho gospel of the
New South, in December of tlie same
year, at the New England dlnner in New
York, did, as Mr. Ingalls put it, 'spilloil
and wine over the wliole American peo-
ple.' Mr. Ingalls had characterized the
assault of Senator Vest on the Grand
Army of the Repul.Iic as an exhibition
of 'corabined, concentrated, coagulated
synicism.' Mr. Ingall's reply was that
and more, To the cynicism of Mr. Vest
is to be added the llery indignatlon of a
man who loved hia country and who
could not sit still and receive with pa
tience the ex-Confederate notice that
the time had cnme when the Southern
men in Congress had determined to call
a halt upon the granting of any further
pensions to Union soldiers.
THE SPEECH.
Mr. Ingalls (the presiding oflicer),hav
ing called Mr. I'latt to the chair, pro
ceeded to addresa the Senate, the gal
laries being crowded to their full capac
Ity. Ho Baid that considerations of de
corum and propriety. perhaps excetsive
and overetrained, had delerred him thus
far from participating in thedcbates of
the Senate. He had Iherefore been sur
prlsed one day last week, on returning
to the chamber after a brief absence, to
learn that the Senator from Missouri
(Vest) had referred to him in terms not
complimentary in a debate in which he
had taken no part, intimating that the
people of the District of Columbia were
incapable of disinierested patriotism,and
that tho veterans of the Ucpublic wero a
tnob of Bordid plunderers. As to himself
he would say that the nomination and
election of Grover Cleveland had made
the nomination of any American citizen
to the I'residenny respectable. There
was no man so ignorant or inean that he
might not asplre to a nomin.ition to the
Presidency by the Diinocratio pirty.
Laughter and applause. J He regrettcd
that the Senator from Missouri was not
in liis neat today, Tlie Senstor from
Kentucky (Dlackburn) had aleo referred
sneeringly to the auper loyalty of the
soldiers of tho Union. He did not clial
lege the honor or courage of these Sena
tors in their devotion to tlie South and
to the Southern Confederacy. They
could not be suspected of incincerity.
They had gone into the Confederacy be
cause they wanted to go: because they
believed that slavery was belter than
freedom. and secession better thun
union. It was curious that Confeder
ates from Union States were a little
moio pronounced and a little more ag
gressive and a little more violent in their
denunciations of the North than Confed
erates from States that had seceded, He
did not know where the Senator from
Missouri bad got the flgures from which
he stated, that but 8000 of Lee's army
had surreHdered at Appomatlox. If tbe
Senator had plucked a few of theplumes
from the dszzllng tnil of hia imaeina'
tion and had stuck them into tlie wings
of liis judgment he would have flown a
more accurate Might. InBtead of 8000
men with inusket'.who werein tbe final
crash and collision of the war, there bad
been 73,011 men. The Senator'a raathe
matlca were certalnly glddy. But one
parallel was to be found to the extraor-
linary inaccuracy of tliatstatement,nnd
that was the same Senator's statement
that of Ihe 2,300.000 soldiers of t he Union
army more than one half had applied
for pensions. Such speeches as those
of the Senators from Missouri and Ken
tucky were intended to catch the Con-
federate vote, and they would catch it.
They were 'centre shots,' Btriking the
bull'8-eye every time and 'ringing the
bell.' He wanted the Senators on the
Democratlc side of the Chamber to un
derstand that their disguisc foropposing
pension bills waa so exceedingly thin
that nobody waa deceivcd by it. It was
not a iiuestion of the cost. The South
did not love the Union army. Neither
did llieDemocratic party.
In 18SG there was In Atlant t a greal
historical occaslon, when a statue to the
memory of an honored Senator was to
be unveiled, a man whom he (Ingalls)
honored and respected, and on that oc-
casion tlieex Pretiident of tlie Confed
er.icy was invited to be present. Men
flocked to tlie city as they go a banquet
as waves come when navies are strand
ed, and the city was decorated with the
Confederate emblenis to make a Confed
erate liolulay. Mr. Ingalls quoted from
the speech of Mr. Grady at the unveiling
of the Hill statue at Atlanta, in which
Jeflorson Dvis was spoken of as one
who.-e 'gray haira were crowned with
deathless love,' and as one who, 'though
an outcast from the privileges of this
great government, is the uncrowned
kingof our peop'e. He did not propoee
to reliearse tlie reply of Mr.Davis except
to quote one sentence in which he re
ferred to Senator Hill as having'mashed
the injurious Yankee,' (meaning,ha sup
posed, their friend now in Florence.)
He epoke of the same orator, Mr.Grady,
having gone to New York and NewEng
land soon afterward. and made Bpeeches
there, pouring out liis 'treacle, uold
cream and honey and maple sirup all
over the North.' When, ho asked, was
that orator sincere? When did he speak
the Bentiments, the feelings and tbe
conscience of the Southern people? Was
it when he delivered that speech in At
lanta on the 1st of May, 1880. or was it
when heepllled oil and wine over all the
American people in the North?
Coming back to tbe opposition of
Southern Senators to pension bills, he
stld he did not blame them for It. He
often wondered how he would have
acted if the relations had been reversed,
and if the Federal Government had been
overllirown. He did not beheve he
would have felt comforted in voting
pensions to Confederate soldiers. He
believed he should have been a conspir-
ator against tlie Confederacy to the cnd
of liis days. But he should have regard
eil as the climax of elTrontery, ai tlie
very apex and sumtnit of hardihood and
audacity (he would not say of pusillan
mity and dn-honor), if, after he had ac-
cepied a pardon and had had disabilities
removed, and had taken the oath of al
legiance to (he succeesful Southern Con
federacy, he had denounced (day after
day) the eHorts which those Confeder
ates made to reward their own soldiers,
and if he huggled about the price which
the conquoring country had seen (it to
bestow on the men by whose nrms it had
conquered. He did not think that the
North was at all deluded by the preten
sions of Senators on the other side. It
was a little singular that.in all the years
wbich had elapsed slnce the war, there
never lus come from one of Ihe Statee
that had been in the rebellion (o far as
he knew) a Uniun soldier ns reprcsenta
tive In eiiher branch of Congress elecled
by Democratic voles. Tlie Democratic
pnrty. iu tliose States never had hlunderr
ed at eending to Congress or tlecting as
Governor a man who had not Eerved in
tlie Confederate army in some capacity.
That had been tho supreme test. When
he looked over tlie rolls of the Senatf
and of the liouse and reilecled how few
of those who hsd eerved in tlie Union
army wero found in the councils of the
natlon, he was not surprised at witness
ing such domonstrations as were wit-
nessed when peniion bills wero up for
action. Criticising the statement of Mr.
Vest that, of the ;$883,O0O,O0O paid out
for pensions, $290,000,000 had been con
tributed by the South, ho declared that
such a statement waa a 'glittering gen
erality.' He doubted whether Ihe South
had aclually contrlbuted ?290,000, in
stead of $290,000,000. Dut even if the
South had paid $290,000,000, it was very
lucky that it did not have to pay tlie
whole of tlie pensions. lnstead of com
plainin&and grumbling that it had paid
$290,000,000, it ought to be thankful that
it did not have to fsot the entire hill, as
France had to do after the Franco Prus
sian war. And yet here.siid he.wehave
the jailers and murdercrs of Anderson
ville, Belle Island and Libby Prison, sit
ting under the (lig which they altempt
ed to pull down, legialating for the
country which they endeavored to de
stroy, and trying to pinch and belittle
and minimize the amounts to be paid to
tbe mutilated and disabled survivors of
the army of the Union.
The Senator from Missouri has asked,
in a burstof indignant impatience.where
all this voting of pensions was going to
end. He had gone thus far, he Baid, but
he Bhould go no further. I will tell the
Senator, eaid Mr. Inga!!s,anf every Sen
ator ou that side of the cliamber(wheth
er they like it or not) what we intend to
do. I will tell the Senator from Mis
souri and tlie rest of hia associales just
where this thing is going to stop. It is
gning to stop when the arrears of pen
sions are paid; when the llmitation is
removed and every soldier on the rolls,
or who gets on the rolls, is paid Irom
the day of hia disability, or (in case of a
survlvor) from the date of the soldier'e
death; and when every surviving soldier
of the Union army is put upon the rolls
for service only. That is when it Is go
ing to stop, Applause in the gallcrles.
And if you do not like it make the most
of it.
Mr. Ingalls repudiated and denied the
assertion of Mr. Vest that Ihe National
Encampment of tbe G. A, R.at St. Louis
latt September had made threats of vio
lence against President Cleveland. The
President could have gonu there with
entiie Bafety. The Grand Army, which
had been stlgmatlzed on the floor of the
Senate as a gang of sordid plunderers,
orgamzed for plunder, were organized
for charity. They had expended in
charity during the year 1880-7 $253,054,
relieving 20,000 persons. It was to eup-
plement this charity that the organiza-
tion had asked from Congress that this
bill should pass. And we propose, Mr.
President, he Baid in conclusion, to pats
it. I hopo that it will pass the other
Iloute of Congrem, and If it docs.let the
President of tho United 8tates veto it at
his peril. fVery general applause on the

UUILDING HAILItOADS AND HUN
NINfi TltAINS.
Very few people except railroad era-
ployes know or imagine the thrilling or
exciting experiences and practical jokes
so intimately associated with some of
the placea over which the awift nioving
train makes its daily trip. Tbe writer,
not long since, was deeply interes'ted
while in conversatinn witha gentleman
who had spent snme of the best year 8 of
liis life on the lines of railroad In Minne
sota and Dakota. Ho gavo an interest
ing account of the lifeof the road build
ers, their strong altachment to each
other and the practical jokes which were
often indulged in.
The following story ia true. except
that the real namea ot the persons are
auppreased, Jack Sharp and John Ben
son, a conductor and engineer on a
Western construction train, were asso-
ciated with Jim Powers and Tom Bur
ton as brakeman and man of all work,
The work to be done was building
bridges, pile dnving and grading, and
much of the time tho caboose was their
parlor, dining room,bedroom and kitch-
en.
Somelime8 when worklng near a vil-
lage they would occupy rooms in the
publio houfe, and so enjny better ao-
commodationa than could be had in tlie
caboose, One nlght Burton and Powers
retired to their bedrooms earlier than
usual, and in doing so had to pass thro'
the room occupied by Benson and Sharp
the conductor and engineer.
As swiftly as possible they took the
bedding apart, emutled out the Btraw,
and tied liard knots in Ihe sheela and
pillow cases. They made the room as
uninhahitable as they could, and then paa
sed nn to their own room and secured
the door with lock and key.
Benson and Sharp went to their room
soon after, and with wide open eyes
looked upon their accommodations for
the nlght, They knew who the guilty
persons were, nnd, calling thn proprie
tor, asked permission to break down the
door, saying that they would pay for
it,
The proprietor advised them to get
oven with their friends in some other
way. and, while they remained undecld
ed about breaking into the room beyond,
the two brakemen, with thoir windows
raised, stood ready to run if necessary,
The engineer and conductor began
setting things to righta and afler an
houranda halfof hard labor thoy part-
ly succccded, and then turned in for the
night.
Burton and Powers were wide awake
oarly the next morning and while their
comrades were asleep they tied up their
pants and coat steeves in hard knots,
and fllled their hoots from the water
pitcher.
During that day they were on their
guard against a surprise' but the engi
neer and conductor appeared to have
forgotten, or concluued to let it pass
without notice.
The roguea became iess watchful to-
wards evening. when euddenly Powers
was seized from behind and after a short
struggle ho was overpowered and so
nurelv fastened in a hox and slats were
nailed over the top for a cover. The
box was su small that there was ro room
to exert himeelf to burst o(T the slals.

A'Famous Doctor
Once said that tho secret of good health
conaisted ln keeplng tlia hcad cool, the
fcet warm, and the bowela open. Ilad
this emincnt pliyslcian llved ln our day,
and known the mcrlts of Ayer'a rills
as an aperlcnt, he would ccrtainljr have
recommended them, as so many of his
dlstlngulshcd successors are dolng.
The celehrated Dr. Farnssrorth, of
Korwlch, Conn., rccommcnds Ayer's
rills as tho best of all remedies (or
"Intermittent Fevers."
l)r. I. E. Fowler, of Brldgeport,
Conn., says: "Aycr's rills aro hlghly
and unlversally spoken of by tho people
ahout here. I make dally use ot them
ln tny practlce."
Dr. Mayhew, of New Bcdford, Mass.,
says : " Having prcscrlbed many thou
sands of Ayer's Pllls, in my practlce, I
can unhcsitatingly pronounco them tlie
best cathartlc in use."
The Massachusctts State Assayer, Dr.
A. A. llayos, certities : 44 1 hnve made a
careful analysis of Ayer's Pllls. They
contain the active prlnclplcs of well
known drugs, isolatcd from inert mat
ter, which plan is, chemically speaking,
ot great importance to their usefulness.
It insurcs artivity, ccrtalnty, and unl
forniity of cflect. Ayer's Pllls contain
no metalllc or inlneral suhstance, but
the virtues of vegetable remedies in
ekilllul comblnation."

WHO OOT WHAI.TIIV.
No talk with Jlr. Ilonnrr would be
complele without a leaf from the inter
estiiiR experiences of liis boyhoou and
youtli.
I went into th Harlfoid Cimiant of
fice,' fie fnid, 'when I was 14 or 15 vears
of app, and it was at that time that I
etarted out into life. I'revious to this I
had been a Fomewhat lnzy and ind ffer
ent boy, allhouch I was very fnnd of
reading all kinda nf iKiok.. From the
time I aclually be;aii work for imsHf
my naiiite fiemeil to MtiderRO an entire
clinngp. 1 becHine iiulmtrious. ulxerv
ant, deterniinc'd to learn evprj tliing that
I could, and resolved to Kt nn in
the uoild. I began as an idhVe h ij-.and
tnj dut es. utside of tj p -settinr, In
cluded sweepuiK out the prnitini! rimm
and liKbtini; tlie fire. For llns I receiv
cd f 25 a year and my board. I was ap
prenticed for several years, and tny t-al
ary was to be increased $10 on each su
cessiye 1st of January. I poon not out
of this, however, as another boy was in
troduced in the oflice and he relieed
meofthe sweeping and flre kindlinn
iliversions. When I really got into type
settinf; I kept on the lookout to learn
overj thiiiK poslb!e nbout ll.e business
of printlnc. One day one of the pnnt
ers asked ine to jo down stairs and t:el
him a bucket of water, :i n tpiest wbleh
lie had no liuht whatever to niske. I
told him, however, that I would do s i
if on my return he would teacli ine how
to justlly the form which he was tlnn
tnak ng up. He readily agreed to this
proposilion, and in that wny 1 addtd in
importnnt fashion tn my sioi k if knowl
edge. Sotne'inie fubsupiently another
of the printers a-ked lue to wm-l, off the
ink roller, which as you know, is abuui
the dirtieht joli that there i in a piiiu
ing oflice. Hereag.iinl aRited lo do
what was atked. ar.d in this case de
mandid that he would fchow nie how to
place Ihe forius of the paper ou the pres' .
The printer acceded to my deiiiand.aiid
in nji like this l.ttle by ht.le I leartnd
evcrj thing aLout the ollice that there
was to learn, fn ni tetting type to get
ting the paptr out. The whole thing
was done by a very few men. Thero
were only a very fe copie9of tlie paper
printed, cnd thry were printfd by four
o'clock in ihe morning and distributid
by carrieis. The paper was nn etly tet
up in the daytime.and at 11 or 12 o'clock
there were about four or livetnches of a
column left for the introduction at ll e
last monient of what we call he post
scrip, which might detail how Jlr.
Jones' barn had been burned down or
how theCoinmon Council had passed
an ordinance with reference to some lo
cal matter. Hartford was shut out from
the world to a great ixtent then. as tlie
railroad extendcd only to New Haven.
The comcquence was that when the
man who tifually put the paper to presB
announced to tlie proprietor that he wao
about to leave. Ihe propiietor begged
him to stay for a week or two longer
until he could procure a substitute.
There was nobody in Hartford to lake
the man's place. Tlie man told the edi
tor that he need be under no uneasines
as Hobert, meaning me, was ihoroughly
competent to undertake all his duties.
This etutenienl was received with sur
prise, but when I was a6ked if 1 cared
to take the vacant place and could per
fnrru its duties I said jes at once ard
thus got the firet round of the ladder
under uiy feet. 0' course I was the en
vy of all the other bojs in the cflice,
particuhirly as I received as a compcn
sation for my new duties Ihe tiinnillcent
silary of IJ a weik.which in tho-e ilays
was a good dial of moniy for h boy. I
contitnied doing this work for about a
year, w hen one morning tlie propneU r
of tho paper told ine, very much to my
astonishmeiit, th.it the other boys in the
oflice fe't so unjtily tieated becaufe I
had been given oppi.rtunilies notaccord
eJ to them and declared tnat it wns his
purpose to institute asyi'eniof rotatinn.
It was a great blow to me, and I reluct
antly resumed my place in the ranks.
Then the other Loys took ho'd Tlie flrst
day they made a veiy bad mi.-take in
theimportant po'tscript of the paper,
leaving out n report.if I remeniber right
of some important action of the city
fathets. The next day was exceedingly
cold and the ink on the rollers became
very bad ly frczen. They did not know
enough to tliaw it out. bf.t ran out the
paper with the ink in this condition.
The retult so far as the appearance of
the paper is cnrcvrned, can 1 e better
iniagined than described. I never saw
such a typogratihical apparition in all
my life. I would fcarcely liave bem
human if I had not rejoiced at least ln a
niild way over Ihe reeults of my enforc
ed retire'ment. That afternoon the prc
prietor came downinanangry condition
of mind and said that no such blunders
had happened under my administration
of the meclianical work of getting out
the paper nnd told me to rei-ume my
duties at once. whk-h, it is needless to
say, I very promptly did.'
1IOSESTV IN 1IVSINKSS
Mr. A. T. Stewart once discliarged a
salesman for telling a woman that a
p'ece of good would wash when he
knew that it would not. The Dry Goods
Chronicle reports a similar case: A cloth
ing dealer in an interior town had occa-
sion tn visit tlit city to buy goods Wl ile
he was gone a young man entered the
store to buy a coat, A salesman wnited
upon Ihe customer aud rhowed him a
coat plalnly marked f". The customer
tried it on and said. in a pleasant, con
flding way, '1 want a good article, and I
can aHord to pay a little more. The
aileetnan showed him many coats. and
linally. having retnovul the tag. again
olTered him tlie $7 coat, which had fitted
him at flrst, and said here is an article,
just your lit, which I cin sell you for
12.' The coat was Bgsin tried on. the
young man seemed plensed. paid his
money and went awav. On the mer
chant's return the salesman, with a
sniil.' nf triumph all over his counten
ance, rushed up to him and bnasted of
what he had done The tnerchant looked
grave. Ile only said, 'Does any ono
know who thc customer was?' A little
boy had recognized him aa n workman
in a neighbon'ng factory, and remem-
bered lus name. The meichant sent for
the young man. told hlm of his mortifi-
cation, gave him back $5 and the privil
ege of returning the coat if ho chose,
and then said to the salesman. 'Notv,
slr, I will pay you,your week's salary,
and I with you lo go. If you cheat my
cuitomers you have not principle enough
not to chrat inc. If I can't have my
people sell goods honeslly. I will go out
of business. Good day, sir.'
