Id the executive session of the Sen
ate there was an interesting discussion
over the nomination of John McNeil
for Indian Inspector. McNeil was a
general in the Union servics dqrlng
the war, and was in command of, the
dietuibed distric.tsof Missouri. When
his oase came up for actloh a South
ern Senator charged that be bad wab-
toniy hung ten men. It appears that
the man belonged to one of the gueril
la bands which roamed oyer hliaspuil
during the war^
Senator Butler, of Sputh Carolina,
rose anj! objected to raking up the
dead Issues of the past. I^e said that

years ago ; that whether, Oen. Mt Nell
had been right or wrong, Lb did not
wish to discuss that. So far aq ho waa
concerned he bhoul^l do nothihg to re
vive the unpleasant memories of the
civil war, and that nominations and all
other questions which came before the
Senate should be judged and acted
upon without any reference to what
took place during the WRh
Oen. Gordon took the same ground
as Oec. Bufter. He said that he, too,
had gone through the war in the mili
tary aervlce of the South, but that now
he wlqhed to keep in everlasting sleep
all the bitterness of feeling and of sec
tion epgendyrpd by that strife.
Senator Armatlrphg, of Missouri; said
that during the war the antagonism
between the Union men and the South
ern sympatiiiz ts in Missouri was un
relenting, deep-seated Add lrre6QJi$:ila-
ble, ami Missouri wan to a great extent
literally a heli ; but that was all past
now, and he, too, deprecated any at

These speeches produced a marked
impression upon the Senate, and re
sulted in McNeil’s coEfirtnation.
