The Chairmanship an Ibe
. i'arty.
The following Tenncssea Congress
men were appointed on oommittee by
Mr. Carlisle: Pcttibone, Republican,
on Kleotions; Dibbrall, on Agrieul'
tare; Dibbrcll, on Miliury Affairs;
Billet-tine, on Naval Affairs; Taylor,
on Postofficcs and Pcstroads; Caldwell,
on Railways and Canals; Caldwell, on
Manufactures; Warner, Chairman ol
Mines and Mining; Ballentino, on
Militia; Benton McMillan, Chairman
on Claims; MoMillan, on Revision of
the Laws; Casoy Young, second place
on Publio Buildings and Grounds;
Taylor, on Expenditures for the War
Department; Houk, (Rop ), on Ex
penditures for the Navy; Casey Young,
Chairmainof Expenditures for the
Interior Department; Warner, on En
rolled Bills. Tennessee, it will be
seen, has three chairmanships: War
ner, MoMillan and Young. If Mr.
Randall had been elected he would
have done as much or more for Ten
lessee and for tbe south. Mr. Ran
dall when he tru Speaker, the
list time appointed J. D.C.Atkins,
of.Tennessee, Chairman of the Com
mittee on Appropriations, the place
assigned the ex Spcakor by Mr. Car
lisle. II 3 gave W. C. Whitthoroo the
Committee on Naval Affairs, now
given to Mr. Cox, and .gave John M
Bright, of Tenncsaoe, the Committee
on Claims. Looking over the two
lists it is seen at a glance that the
South had more important chairman
ships and important plaoes on com.
' mittees in the Forty-sixth than in the
present or Forty eighthCongresa. Mr.
Carlisle is a pure an 1 able man, but
lbs charge of sectionalism and the
painted spsotre of "the Southern
Confederacy again in the saddle,"
made him over oiutiom, if not timid
He dared not be ovar liberal with the
South, and yet be has made an
equitable distribution as to m;re
numbers, and with regard to State
representations. The Hjutb, inoln
ding Maryland, Kentucky, and Mil
ouri, had twenty two Chairmanships
under Mr. Rindall m the Forty-sixth
Congress. This time, not so many,
and or at least none of them first in im
portance But so it is. an J perhaps it is
all for the best. 1 his Coagresa may
formulate good doctrines and plat
farms, but as the Ledger said months
ago, it can not enact any tariff reform
laws. Intelligent discussion will en
lighten the publio mind, and may sug
gest good policy and lead to the success
of the Democratio party next year.
The pirty, undoubtedly, is in favor
of a tariff reform, but how far, and
how soon, remains to be determined;
we are not fully deoided as to these
points. One fact is undeniable: there
ii no longer any such a thing as an
absolute free trade Democratic party
in the world";

London, December 21. It is cur
rently reported that Miss Mary Ander
son is to be married to the Duke of
Portland. There is goed authority for
this statement. .
TE1K HAPPY MAN.
The contracting parties to the forth
coming marriage are both to be con
gratulated. Miss AndcrBon will cause
much jealousy among the belles of
Knelisn society lor bavin the good
fortune to oapture so eligible a parti
as the Duko of Portland. On tbe
other hand, there are few married
bnilish noblemen who will not teel
inclined to envy the young Duke. Tbe
stage has furnished many beautiful
wives to the bnglish anstocraoy, out
so far as is known no American actress
has heretofore made so remarkable a
conquest. The Duke ot Portland is a
fine, manly young follow ot nx anu
twenty. He was for a time in the
Coldstream Guards.where be was very
popular indeed among his brother of
ficers. A good ihot, a genial, good
tellow, a capital man in a canter across
the oountry, he was a general favorite
bvcry one wished him hearty good
luok when, in lti? 9, he succeeded the
late eooentrio Duke ot r ortland, his
first cousin. For twenty-six years this
last named personage lived the lite ot
a recluset For more than a quarter of
a century all he oared
for was tha oarrying out ot bis
wooderful works at Weibeck Abbey.
He usedto dincalone.no one approach
ing him but bis valet. There were
drawn for him every day two quarts of
beer and two ot ale.but be never drank
them. lie was free from vice, and his
usual manner of lile was laid to have
been caused solely by an overmaster
ing desire to eary into effect hi,
rare constructive skill, ilia "eccen
trinity" found employment for thou
sands of hands, and his worxs it Wei
beok remain a great monument to his
memory. The late Duke had refined
taste in architecture An arohway
was at one time built for him by an
architect which, when completed, was
an eyesore. Instead of manifesting
his displeasure to the aroniteot be
aimnlv had it nulled down one even
ing, aod when the arohiteot oame next
day he did not even mention his work,
and not a word was said about its dis
appearance. On the death of the
Duke, Weibeck went into mourning,
and tbe multitude of people who
looked for bread to a tasteful and libs
eral nobleman asked themselves how
far tbe works it Weibeck would be
continued.
WKLUECK ABBEY.
The present Duke, thotiBn he did
not spend his money with the lavish
band ol his predecessor, still ex
pended large amounts in completing
the works at the Abbey. Tbe work
of reconstruction waa oarried on in a
prudent manner, and the present
owner sremed to be imbued with the
desire of the late Duke to make Wei
beck Abbey architecturally perfect.
The Abbey will always be famed for
its underground passages, which ex
tend for miles, and for its subter
ranean apartments, including a spa
oious ballroom and suits of rooms in
the bosom of the earth. The most
striking feature in the buildings
above ground is the large Gothic hall,
restored in 1751 by the Countes of
Oxford; and the visitor oannot fail to
be delighted with the fan-like traoery
of the ceiling, the elaborate designs
and the splendid decoration!. In the
early part of his career the late Duke
devoted himself ardently to the culti
vation of art, and the hundreds ot
paintings which adorn the walls of the
Abbey testily to the good taste he
must have possessed Extending in all
directions from tbe Abbey are those
lofty and spacious passages which
have been for so long the wonder
and admiration of the privileged visi
tor. Tboy are brilliactly lighted
by means of oostly apparatus for at
trading the sunlight, and where sun
light cannot he admitted, by gaslight.
Toe eeleb-ated "riding school," the
like of which is not to be found in the
world, is reached through one or two
underground passages. Kntranoe is
gained by a trap door, which is opened
by a curiously designed crank in the
passage. The building was used for
the purpose of a riding school in the
Duke of Newcastle's time, hnt hu

Large numbers of pictures, are ar

gallery is lighted by means of four
chandeliers, each weighing a ton, sus
pended from the roof. There are up
ward of two thousand gas jets, and
when all are illuminated the effeot
must be brilliant in the extreme.

The place seemed Quite deserted at
first, but as we neared the house an
old woman, a regular Aunt Dinah sort
ot contraband, came out and mot us

"Without paying much attentiou to
the old woman s talk, I stepped upon
the porch, and though she tried to de
tain me, pushed her aside and put one
hand against the half-opened door.and
received shock that will Jaat my
lifetime. Slaml The door waa jerked
wide open, and right against my cheek
was planed the muzile ot a big navy
revolver, and u 1 saw the trigger jerk
and the hammer fall I laid my prayers
very quickly, for I thought it was all
tp with me, it was done so suddenly.
I tell you, boys, when that hammer
fell with a dull thud, and nothing hap
pened foi a ectend, it kind oi stunned
me. Then I grabbed the revolver,
and for tbe first time realized that
it was girl that had tried to
desperately to shoot me. She strug
gled . viciouily, and '. I am
alroid I hurt ber a little, but I thought
she might have better luck the next

then. She was very pretty, but she
did hate the Yankees anr1 some of the
abuse she heaped upon tne really
stung me, for I Late to be abused by
any woman, and speoially by a pretty.

the abuse was not the worst, ,1 had
barely aecured tb revolver and freed
her from my grasp when she picked
up a pail of dirty water, witb which
the negro woman had evidently been
sorubbing. and just doused me with it
from head te foot. It wa horrible.

laughed at me so scornfully that for a

of the mess, I did not interfere with
tbe boya who had made both women
prisoners. When I finally recovered
my temper I mads a plain statement
ot tbe case to tbem. I told tbe young
lady Miss Honey tbe woman -called
her that, while I did not wish to
harm them in the least, they should
both be kept prisoners unless they
pronged not to make any more such
unpleasant attack upon any oi us
They finally promised, but would

in tbe views expressed by Congress

Ucpresentativ V iliis.ot Kentucky.
whose relation! with Carlisle are
known to be. intimate, hays that in
making up tin eommitteei the Speaker
paid most regard to the character and
experienoe of the men to be placed,
and there was no intention or desire
to punish anybody for the part taken
in the Speakership eontest. As proof
ol the latter assertion, W iliis relcrs
to the fact that Randall and a numbor
of his prominent supporters were given
important chairmanships, and that all
the members of tho New York dele
gation occupy committee places of
responsibility. "It anything," said
W ilns, there is , danger of Speaker
Carlisle having been too safe."
: Willis, who wa appointed chairman
oi the Ocmmiteee on Kivers and
Harbors, says hn will favor a liberal
policy in that direction.
The nioinbors of the Ways and
Means Committee generally deolined
to aipress any opinion as to the policy
the committee would-adopt or the
work it would undertake to do. Mr.
Morrison, its chairman, is said in re
ply to questions .to have made this
point. 'The makeup of the commit
tee indicated what the noliov would
be, but he deolined to go into details
or express bimsolf more fully upon
tha subject... Mr. Calkins, not a mem
ber of the eommiltoe, says the make
up indicates that "particular thunder
will be raised." r A. prominent con
servative Democratic Representative
from Now Knglund said, ia reply to
questions, that he prelerred to wait a
little belore talking much about the
organization ol the Ways and Means.
H says, however, that the composi
tion of the; eommittee ii not in ao
ordance with the conservative ideas
on the tariff Question.
Most of its members are not men of
moderate views, and the selection of
suoh men was, he thought, at vari
ance With the sentiment exnressed bv
Carlisle in bis speech acoepting tbe
office ot Speaker.
Another Eistern Representative
said bis opinion was that the commit
tee would be found strongly in favor
of ultimate free trade, a majority of
its members being in acoord with its
chairman, Morrison, on that oucstion.
How far they would be likely to go in
carrying out their views was a ques
tion upon which speculation at ores
ent was useless. , He thought that in
view oi the approachiog Presidential
election policy would forbid radical
measures. - A majority of tbe Demo
crat o members of the House seem to
be contented with the places assigned
them, but a few, among them Springer,
express loud dissatisfaction. -
The latter, it is said, expected to be
made chairman of the Committee on
Elections, the position be oooupied in
the Forty-sixth Congress, but was not
even made a member of that oomm'.t-
tee or given any other position that he
regarded in keeping with his expe-1
rience and long eervioe as a member
oi the House. Tbe reason, it r,id,
why Springer was not given a plate on
the Elections Committee was that be
was knewo to bo. unfriendly to Man
ning, upon whose case that committee
would have to pass judgment.
Springer himself attributes' bis ex
elusion, as be regards it, from all the
important committees to tho hostility
oi Morrison. . .
'Just after the adjournment of tbe
Uouse, Springer went up to Morri
son, who wa standing in front of the
Speaker's desk, and laid: "You have
done a d d meao thing to me, and
all I've got to lay is that I'll remem
ber you,"
"Very well," replied Morrison, and
Springor walked away.
S. S. Cox is angry at his assignmet
to Naval Affairs instead of Foreign
Affairi Committee, and telegraphed
bis refusal to serve,
Mr. Horr, of Michigan, said he
thought the make np ot the commit
tees all the way through was horrible.
The Committee on Commerce, with
which he was most familiar, he said,
was made np in the interest of the
"Iteagen bill."
' Curtin said he thought the com
mittees would give general satisfac
tion. They oould have been better.
Judge Lowrey, MoMillan, Cobb aod
many others said about the same
thing.
Judge Murphy, of Iowa, said he
believed , eighty-five per cent of tbe
House were well pleased.
The appointment ot J. Floyd King
as Chairman ot the Levees and Mis
sissippi Kiver Improvement Commit
tee is regarded a good augury for tho
continuation of work on that river, as
King is conspicuously identified witb
that subject. Tbe seleotion is looked
upon as indicating the Spcakc'i in
terest in improving tbe Mississippi
river.
General King believes in liberal ap
pointments for that river and says he
will do his best to lead Congress into
the same way of thinking.
Mr. Henley, of California, says the
present House will probably raise tbe
rates on wool and put a number of ar
ticles on tbe free list, including oertain
drugs and possibly salt
Twenty nine of fifty five of the new
chairmanships go to the South.

BEECHER ON THE TARIFF.
Henry Ward Beecher on th Ialq.
niue of a rroteouvi Tariff
aa B Prtachta Against Slavery,
Ha I" rates ta again! Ine
Mara WMeapraad ser
vitude. Naw York Barald,
After an old fashiaueti nnrtndav
dinner yesterday Rev. Henry Ward
Deeoher threw himself into an arm
chair in his pleasant little atudy. and
talked right ahead to a Herald refor
ter upon the likelihood, in hi opin
ion, that tariff would be the great
question in the approaching Presiden
tial campaign.
1 stood by tha oradla when tb
Republican parly waa born," began
Mr. Beecher. "I have worked for ita
existence for years aod year, and
years; I have been in all ita vicisai
tudea, and I feel a profound interest
n it- a blttorieal intereat in il lint
it has always gone wrong on this sub
ject; and now that all other questions
are ieit aside tor l think it is an lm
pertinrnoe to open the Southern ques
tion again I feel aa ii theKecuhlioan
party, u it expeota longer lease of
power, oas got to meet lb demand
which has just been made, but which
1 going to swell louder anil Inndnr
In the first plsoe, I don't think that

nave Deen, in tavor ot high protection,
i mina m- are beginning to see
the illusion and th deoeption
tbat is praotioed upon them
and whieb ia a doublelold one. The
Stimulation Of anv form of tnannfan
turing by an excessive tariff instantly
oarrics an amount of capital into tbat
uucuiiun, wuicu proauce a ri
valry ner at nome. l b. rs ara mora
iron furnace than are necessary to
supply tbe borne demand, tor iron;
there are more woolen faotories than
are necessary to supply tha demand at
home for woolen goods. It is tbe same
with ootton, and it is ooming to be the
same witb all the products of the farm
Wa are manufacturing mora butter
more oheese, we are raising more beef
and more hogs, than this oountry can
consume or begin to oonsume, and it
is tberetore indispensably necessary
that in aome way or other wo ahould
get a larger market for tbem.
Till RESULT OF THE GLUT.
"But the wall tbat keeps men out
on on Bide keens them out on the
other. 1 be tariff may primarily pre
vent tha importation of goods manu
factured abroad, but directly and in
directly it also prevent our oarrying
our surplus goods into tbe markets ol
the world. In the manufacturing.
the raw material, the staple
elements, tne interest on hied
capital, and so on, are incomprehensi
ble tnoj remain about stationary
and wben the glut comes there is
but one way in whiob they can con
tract, and tbat is by first knocking
down the wages of their men. and it
that creates a row, then the next thing
ia to shut up shut the foundrv. shut
the manufactory aod in that way, if
you lane toe receipts of tha laboring
men with all these deduotions, I don't
think tbat, on an average, they get
any more than they do in Europe.
And then yon must add that the things
for which he spends his money in this
oountry have been stimulated in price
carried np for tha sake of the mor
chant and tbe farmer (for they hare
an interest); so that wben he comes to
spend bis money he buys lea with it
than te eould buy with the same sum
in Europe, and 1 think th werking
men are getting this idea more and
more thoroughly into tbeir minds
hav held from th vet-v kaoinniHa
. . 7 . J
sine I went into an active oampaigo
on the subject of free trade, that while
it ia very important that men in ool
leges and educated men should have
right views on that subject, in so far as
oampaign policy is oonoerned we have
got to persuade the voter. All the theo
res in the world are ot no use if the la
boring men who have got vote in
their hands oannot be made to see
tbat it is to their interest to have a
low tariff. I think we are getting
that beaten in more and more to the
publio comprehension: and when vou
eoma to bring out the silent vote in
tbe next campaign I should not he
surprised at all if there were a ohange
that would overwhelm politicians with
surprise. Ii I eould have my way,
therefore, my polioy would be to let
tha Democrats who oontrol Congress
frame a judicious bill, not overdoing
the reductions, and lot tha Republi
can Senate aooept it and vote it, and
that, so far a the question of party is
concerned, would 1 tbink, be a con
servative a etcp as tbe Republican
party eouiu very well take."
INCIDENTAL PEOTEOT10N POISON
Where would that nlaoa the
party?"
"What matter! 117 We all agree
upon one thing, that ai a praotical
measure th first step to be taken ii
to admit raw material free; and the
seoond is to have a eliding aoale, year
by year, until we have reduced the
tariff to an absolute revenue basis.
Tbe moment you aay 'with incidental
protection,' you are dead; yon are gone;
every aingle drop of protection in the
tariff is dead poison. I wouldn't pro
tect anything. I would make the
tariff cxolusively for revenue."
"Do yon imagine the Republican
party will tak tha matter up in the
way that you suggost?"
"No. I'm afraid they won't; but so
fir aa I oan possibly bring any influ
ence to bear I would nrga upon th
Republicans to advocate, revenue re
form, and aava themselves in the near
future by doing it"
"And if they don't do that?"
"Well, if they don't do that and
go overboard I shall be very sorry;
but I ain't going overboard with
them."
"You mean tbat you will beoome a
Domoorat?"
"I certainly shall not help any oan
didate in the Republican party by an
advooacy or a seeming advocacy of
protection, ion -enow exactly bow
tbat would be. If I had any influence
at all I would necessary be adverse to
those who uphold protection."
"But would you go over totheDcm
ooracy?" "li tha Democrats should oome out
for raw material free and a eliding
cale from year to year of reduction
of tha whole tariff an even out if
theyabould do that, tha Democralio
party would come to my ground," re
sponded Mr. Beeeber, with a smile
"But with - me it is not
a question of party, al
though I have my affiliations. I
am not a politician, and my thought is
purely and simply what ia best for tbe
country,, I have got no office to keep
and none to solicit; I have oo political
influence tbat I am afraid of damaging.
I stand as a spectator and look on."
REPUDLIciNS WHO WILL UPilCLD
TUB DEMOCBAOY,
"Do yon tbink the eleotion of Car
lisle baa defined the Democratio posi
tion aod improved the prospeoti ol the
party?
"The eleotion of Carlisle has bad a
deoided influence, and a beneficial on
But the Democratic party is a peculiar
institution Because it did a thing
last year, is no reason why it should
do the same thing this year. It has
aver been willing to take the govern
ment, but has never been willing to
saotifio a single thing to show that it
had oonviction on any on point"
"There are thnusandi of Republi
cans, Mr. Beecher, who think a you
do on this question. What do yon
i pec t they will do if tbe Democracy
stands squaroly on th issue of tariff
reform?"
"I think there li a vaat number ol
men wbo have heretofore been Re
publicans aod would prefer to vote
with Republicans, but who will oer
tainly vote the Democratic ticket in
that event The ailent voters, I think,
ara increasing in nuiabor. 1 think the
publication ol this discussion in the

thing to agitate th question. The
Herald is doing a great work just now

There was to have been a suit for

farmer down in Springwell waa charged
with having slapped the jaws of his
neighbor, and two wagon loads of wit

Both plaintiff and defendant bar men
to be determined men, and their re
spective wivea sat and glared at each
other like two wilk oat. Some of the
neoessary formalities were being work
ed up wben, all of a sudden, the wife
of the eomplainant wa taken with the
toothache. It wasn't the kind which
growls and mutters and fools around,
but the old fashioned jumping aoha,
and in two minutes ahe was orying.
Her teara at onoe affected tb wife of
the defendant, and after little she
slid over and whispered:
i'oor tning l m sorry.
"Oh, suoh an aobel ' sobbed the
victim.
"I brought along some peppermint,
and here it is," said the first, as ih
produced the phial.
"What's all this?" asked the plain

"Why, your poor wife ia Buffering

"Say, George. I waa a lool to bring

"But I'm sorry. Jim."
"Then let' drop the whole business
and ride horn together and hav a

And in spit of lawvera and suede
