The Senate heard ten witnesses in ' the Swayne impeachment trial Mon- j day, and devoted the remainder of its time to the consideration of the agricultural appropriation bill. The major portion of the debate in connection with the appropriation bill was based an an amendment suggested by Mr. Bacon, providing for semi-monthly reports on the condition of the cotton crop, which was amended so as to cover the last Ave months cf the year, and adopted. Mr. Bacon, in offering his amendment, said that no provision could be Incorporated to the bill that would be of so mu<y importance to the cotton producam as this one. He traced the failurjaf the growers to secure profitable returns from last season's crop to the infrequency of the offl- j ; clal reports.

The bishop first enters an emphatic plea against any social intermingling of the races: a question -which must, of course, be left to the people of each community to" settle for themselves, as in such a matter no one community? and indeed no one individual?can dietate to any other; always provided that in each locality men keep in mind the fact that there must be no confusing of civil privileges with social Intercourse. Civil law must not regulate social practices. Society, as such, is a law onto Itself, and will always regulate its own practices and habits. Full recognition of the fundamental fact that all men should stand on an equal footing, as regards civil privileges, in no way Interferes with recognition of the further fact that all reflecting men of both races are united in feeling that race purity must be maintained. * NATIONAL DESTINY SAFE. Let us be steadfact for the right; but let us err on the side of generosity rather than on the side of vindictiveness toward those who differ from us as to the method of attaining the right, let us never forget our duty to help in uplifting the lowly, to shield from wrong the humble: and let us likewise act fn a spirit of the broadest and frankest generosity toward our brothers, all our fellow-countrymen; in a spirit proceeding not from weakness but from strength, a spirit which takes no more account of locality than it does of class or of creed; a spirit which ,is resolutely bent on seeing that the Union which Washington founded and which Lincoln saved from destruction shall grow nobler and greater throughout the ages. I believe in this country with all my heart and soul. I believe' that our people will in the end rise level to every need, will In the end triumph over every difficulty that rises before them. I could not have such confident faith in the destiny of this mighty people if I had it merely as regaros one portion of that people. Throughout our land things on the whole have grown better and not worse, and this is as true of one part of the country as it is of another. I believe in the Sputherner as I believe in the northerner. I claim the right to feel pride in his great qualities and in his great deeds exactly as I feel pride in the great qualities and deeds of every other American. For weal or for woe wc are knit together, and we shall go up or go down together; and I believe that we shall go up and not down, that we shall go forward insted of halting and falling back, because I have an abiding faith in the generosity, the Courage, the resolution, and the common sense of all mv countrymen. PROBLEMS WILL VANISH. The Southern States face difficult problems; and so do the Northern States. Some of the problems are the same for the entire country. Others exist in greater intensity in one section; and yet others texist in greater intensity in another section. But in the end they will all be solved; for fundamontollv mii> tannic are the same throughout this land; the same in qualities of heart and brain and hand which have made this republic what it is in the great today; which will make it what it is to be in the infinitely greater tomorrow. I admire and respect and believe in and have faith in the men and women of the South as I admire and respect and believe in and have faith in the men and women of the North. All of us alike, Northerners and Southerners, Easterners and Westerners, can best prove our fealty to the nation's past by the way in which we do the nation's work in the present; for only thus can we be sure ^ -V M .1 l_ .LIU ? -L-11 a ?

Lew Wallace, author, ex-minister toTurkey, and veteran of. the Mexisan and civil wars, died at his home in this city at 9:10 o'clock Wednesday nighty aged 78 years. The health of General Wallace has been .waning for several years, and for months it has been gen- ^ erally known that bis vigorous constitution could not much longer withstand the ravages of a wasting dis- ease. For more than a year he has been unable to properly assimilate food, and this, together with his extreme age, made more difficult bis fight against deat?. At no time has he ever confessed his belief that the end was near, and his rugged constitution and remarkable vitality have been responsible for prolonging his life. Besides his physician, only Mrs. Wallace, his son, Henry Wallace, of Indianapolis, and his wife, were present. * When told by his physidan that he was dying, General waiiace _ fectly calm and his last words^rcrTT expressions of cheer1 to his griefstricken family. Bidding them farewell, .be said, "I am ready to meet i. my Maker," and lapsed Into unconsciousness, from which he did not recover. No definite funeral arrangements have been made. General Wallace was born at Brook- \ rllle, Franklin county, Ind., in 1827. He served in the Mexican volunteers. Dur; lng the civil war he commanded a division of the Federal army at the capture of Fort Donelson, and was promninr general of volunteers in 1 March, 1862. In 1SC3 he prevented the g ' capture of Cincinnati by Gen. Kirby " Smith. On July 9, 1864. he intercepted ! Gen. Early, who was marching upon i Washington with 28,000 men, while he | had only 5,800, and succeeded, though of course driven in defeat, in detaining Early for some days until Washington could be re-enforced by Grant. In 1865 ! Via xitqq m n<!tf?rprt out of the volunteer ! service and returned to the practice I cf law at Crawfordsville, lad. He was Territorial Governor of Utah in 1878-Sl and served from 1881 to 1885 as minister to Turkey. From this period until r his death Gen. Wallace ^confined him- , self largely to a literary career. Jj It is as the author of "The Fair God," R a story of the conquest cf .Mexico, his first novel, and "Ben Hur" (1880), that ' he achieved his mosll Willi! Ml ing distinction.
