Toe llollslous Question nt the Hoar-A Charleston l'natprv {jnr-ake Out-Judg ment aoU ftoUcro) fqnUnraoul From the Charleston if cwt and Courier. Last Sunday morning, 13th instant, the threatening aspect of the weather did not prevent the attendance of a large congre gation at tho Citadel Square Baptist Church. The subject of Dr. Chatnbliss' sermon was of peculiar interest at the present time, and his views were uttered with remarkable clearness. The unusual pressure upon our columna yesterday crowded out our report; but we'givo this morning some of tho moat striking passa jr.es from Ute discourse. Dr. Chamblisa saiD : Nobody has ever questioned, BO far as I knov#, that by tho phrase "that day" (the text was 2 Tina., 1:18) Paul meant the day of judgment, the great court day of eternity. The expression waa not un usual with him. In tho first chnpter of. Second Thessalonians it occurs where bo speaks of tho coming of the Lord "to be glorified in bia eaint.- and to be admired in all them that believe in that day." Again, in thia" chapter,, only a few Hues above tho teat, ho employs tho esme phrase, as he sees the glittering sword of the executioner BO near, and the Lord, the righteous Judge, standing just be yond, with tho far outshining crown in his hand for the poor heaoT which was about to roll in the dust. "I know whom I have believed, and 'am persuaded that he is able to-keep that which I have com mitted unto Him against that-day." And so tho truth ia at once put beyond denial ?nd <jeyond the need of argument, for all who accept this book aa God's word, that thero is to be a day of judg ment for this world. Men may discuss this question or that bearing upon the *-..?!._1.1.? .,.,(....., "<. Itw,_Z.L _ l. uv.. ...v. uuvM.w vt I.A\J givaii Ulai. MS the time of it, or the place-but the fact itself cannot be questioned by any one who believes tbe Bible, that "God bas appoin ted a day in which Ho will judge the world in righteousness, by that man whom He bas ordained"-Jesus Christ, tho 8on of Man, the Son of God. Now, I do hot B?ppO30, of course, that a day of twenty-four hours, one of our days of alternate sunshine and darkness, will begin and end the final judgment. But I do believe, and I rest my confi dence on thia Book, that in one of these days of twenty-four hours, when the in habitants of this earth shall be driving ou in pdrsuit of. their various ends of pleasure or of gain, when the ahuttlcs shnll be flying in the looms, and the stones grinding in the - mills, and the piougbsnarej running in the fields-when anxious brows and ousy bands shall be moving here and therein store and work shop, in counting house'' and professional office, when school-room and play-ground shall be vocal with the pleasant Sounds of youthful learning or. amusement, when politicians Bhall be wrangling in legisla tivo balls, and arms shall be clashing on ensanguined fields-in one pf these days of twenty-four boura whether at mid night or cock-crow, or nt high noon, there shall corns a wondrous sound pealing out of heaven, such as never yet smote upon the ear of man. At that Bound the wheels of universal motion shall cease to roll, and the great angel, standing with ono foot opon the sea and the other upon the land, snail swear by Him that sitteth on tho throne that time shall be no longer. Every grave shall then giveback its dead, all whom tin sea has swallowed up shall be cast form, and they that remained alive shall be changed m a moment;-in the twinkling of an eye-for tho Lord shall come with H?B holy angels, and Bit upon His throne to judge tho living und the dead. In the day Lhat Time ends, the final, universal judgment will begin. Its con tinuauco will not be measured by tempo ral atai darda. . We cannot ?peak of it as either long or short, as embracing boura or days or years. We ? only know that however chcuged may be our relations to material things, however new and strange the conditions of our existence then, we shall be judged, every one of us, accord ing to the deeds, done in tho body, and ?hall ve?>*?e sentence for eternity from from the mouth of the Son of God./ Have I said one thing so far which is . not sustained by the plainest declarations; of Scripture? I have said there shall be' a judgment ; that it shall come suddenly, with a great noise ; that ali worlds shall cease to move, because time shall be.no longer ; that those who are alive at its coming shall be instantly changed into another condition-of. being, and that all the dead ahall rise; that tho Lord". Jesus shall appear with the holy angels and sit upon a throne of power. I have said that the last day of time shall bo merged in eternity and the judgment will continue until every human being shall have re ceived an eternal sentence. 1 dare U> say that no one who has any acquair tance with the teachings of the Bibic will dis pute that the doctrine as thus far uufold ed is found thereto. The questions about which there is room to differ I have not raised 'at all. The time of thia awful evunt-^-whether it is near or 'far detailt; the place-whether upon thiB earth, or in mid air; orin another sphere; the.-special characteristics of the scene-whether the innumerable millions of Adam's race shall Btand'id ?rte Vast throng and be in dividually judged iu hearing of ono an other, or whother physical forn.3 and material space ohall bo there unknown all, such' questions, as unprofitable and insolvable, I leave to those who Would be wise above what ?B written. Only so far as tho Divino record runs, plain and clea*, so plain that trie wayfaring man, though a fool, nced.aot err therein, do 1 ask you to go, and I would warn every man to Btop hot short.of that-the truth of a judgment to com?jwbi?h shall begin with the rising of the dead and the clos ing of all earthly Bcenc?,-which shall embrace every human _ hoing, and an nnnnfs? ths? .t.rnnl' Hfiitinv of all. Jesus Christ himself sitting as'King of kings and Lord of lords, * But there is an additional truth en^ folded in this text which wo must not suffer to escape u*. The Apostle prays that "in that day" Oneaipborus may And m?tv? Of the Lord, Now, it m hy seem to n? a little strango that any anxiety should bo felt about so good a man) and there ?B ( a solemn lesion for us bere. Paul does I not doubt the piety of this disciple, but as he hears in imagination tbe awful cry. "the ?reat dav of His wrath is,come, add who shalt be able to etand," ne feels that it cannot be amiss to pray for even Ono niphoruH, that he may find mercy then. This, however, is not the point I wish you to n-iticc nowt Her? it ,in- wbat rf ason was there xs\iv such a prayer should be made for anybody, a prayer for! mercy in that dayt Do you wonder at tho quezon? On'; recall what you have been reading in the papers of late about certain eminent, popular preachers in England an? AH?*'?.ea with refr?enco to tho doctrine of future punishment only reflect bow common it baa become in some quarters tn doubt-or to reject altogether the doctrine that .punishment^ terrible ruin and destruction, will be vis ited upon a portion of mankind after death. Now I ask. what did. Paul moan by making it a nnDjnctbrfcrvent prayer that a man might find mercy cf the Ix>rd on the day of judgment* Did he nut know that everybody would be saved J ' That there was to be no' punishment after death? That tho whole race of maa would be called before the throne of the Judge only to be welcomed into the joys of the Lord? Or, at least, did not Paul know that oven the most criminal of the ungodly would only be required to suffer a while, still aa the objecta of love and mercy, and then would be raised up to Heaven? Why should be erf "Lord grant unto him, that ho may hud mercy in that day 1" Ab, friends, can we doubt it? Pani did not know what Canon Farrar ana Mr. -Beecher have been lately teaching, what so many others would fain believe. Paul thought, Paul knew, Paul paid that "the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angela iu flaming fire, taking vengeance on them that know not Qod and ob>y not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Chrh:1 ; who ihi.W be "unisbed with everlasttss dr; struction from the presence of the Lord, and from tho glory of His power, in that rfay." These are his Very words. If any one imagines the word "everlasting" vs not properly so translated. let him take it out of the sentence, and see how much is left upon which tho rebellious pud dis believing can bang any hope. D'JCS not the fearful truth still burn in every line of the passage? They who object have their controversy with God. IS THERE A HELL! "It ls ) 'u-nlug Now," ?aya tho Ker. De Wit? Talmo ye. From the Nero York Herald. Mr. Tslmngo preached yesterday morn ing, 13th instant, on the subject of Hell. His teat was "Thus saith the Lord" which be quoted from Exodus, 4:22 ; Exodus, 9; 17; I. Samuel. 2:27: Joabus. 7:18; Joshua, 24:2; Judges, 6:8; I. Chroni cles, 17 :7 ; Jeremiah, 6:9. Eight texts and all of them the same, said Mr. Talmage. The strangest thing in the history of modern and .European journalism is that for the past few months it haa been discussing the question of eternal punishment. It makes but vo-y little difference what DoWitt Talmage thinks about this, for lt in only a little while ago he began to breathe, and in a little while he will stop breathing. It makes but little difference what Dean Stanly or Canon Farrar or Mr. Frothing ham think, for they have never been in the eternal world and can give no per sonal experience. This morning I cast aside all human authority. There ia only one being who can tefl me whether there is a hell, ana that bc:ng is God. I reject every opinion except that which 1B written, "Thus saith the Lord." My friends, I start on the assumption that the Bible ia true. As common sense men you know that there must be some common ground where we shall stand together. ' It would be aa billy for me to try to prove to you who reject the truth of tho Bible that there-is-a place of-fu ture retribution as it would be for me to discuss fraud and crime and penalties with a man who denied Blackstone and the laws of the State of New York. I have to ask you who reject the Bible two Questions : "Is there a God ?" "Is He lood ?" You Bay. "Yes." Now, I ask. is it not reasonable that? a good Goa should give us a revelation of some kind -some guide, some directory ? You sayj "Ot coiirse." Is it Shakespeare, pr Con fucius, or the writings of Mohammed, or the Bible? If you can show rae a reve lation better than the Bible I wilt take il and preach from it. Is there a man in this Louee who denies everything? It h easy to deny. Eternal spirit of Almighty God fall upon us now, while with fingers of dual we tu ii the sacred leaves and with lip of asLes recita the most stupendous truths that ever shook the human soul I have no sympathy with the .flippant discussion of this truth, nor with thal manner on the part of the preacher whict seems to say, "You impenitent people will bo lost, and good for you." I thins I am a siGner, and because of the millior. siiia of my life and heart I must perish unlc-a some one can show me out of thi way of condemnation; . IB THERE MR ? . In the first place, I group together al those passages which represent the suffer inga ol the lost aa fire. I might explaii them away, but what is the use of et plaining away, tho fire when God say there is one? A criminal might as wei at' arapt to explain away Sing Sing Prison If there is a mistako about it Christ mad< tho mistake. The last book of the Nei Testament closes with a dark scroll ii the sky. What is it? Smoke. Wher there is no fire there is no smoke. It i the smoke of tho'furnace that ascender! forever and ever. It may be figurati"-. but I know very well (bat if it is not fir it is something aa severe as fire. I knot that it is a torment unmitigated. ] there ia a mental state as Bharp an severe os fire it might as well bo fire. Bu take any figure of your or?n. I prefe God's,' because God'e comparisons ar right and human comparisons may fa wrong. Besides that it may be litera You say. "I don'tfaelieve it ; I won't b( iievo it. Then, be consistent and iuro* your Bible into the East River. Keef ing both your Bible and your unbclit you stultify yourself beyond, all possibi ity of other stultification. The next thing I have to do Is to grou all those passages which show the indi] nation of God against sin. and Mimer, sn henee- tho possibility of such a place i I have spoken of. Out of a nundre sermons ninety-eight are on the lo TO nu mercy' of God ahd only two on the indi] nation cl (iod. The Bible moro fr quently speaks of the wrath of God tiu pf Hialovo, and yet we go on preaching one-sided Qod with a character which y would, despise iq ourselves. Some see to think they-can go on denying God at striking Him in the face and He wi smile on thom through all eternity. A you not persuaded by. the passages whi< show the Lord's indignation? If ti then I shall haveto leave you to be pc suaded by your o?,n experience, im tho torments of the damned, w?tu il truths' of Goda' punishment shall burned upon you. I have nothing to ? with objections to-day. I simply st? that God fifty-six times in thc plaine most unmistakable, stupendous and ov< whelming way dcclnrea that there is hell. It is burning ndw^ it has^be burning very iong. It is pec?me ficrt by the victims that are being dropp into it. There is a probability that th< ave some in this house to-day who w spend eternity in that lost world.. Nol ing but the haiid of an outraged, defli insulted, long suffering, indignant a omnipotent God keeps this wit ol o au ence this moment from sliding like avalanche into lt. But I want to toll y that there is no moro seed that you go that world than that, you leap into 1 geysers of California. Tell the peof gentlemen of tho press, that there la reason that any man should ?o thc and if ho docs he is the suicide of immortal soul, I turn to the samo t book and I find that the Lord has mt it possible for us all to bo saved. He ! only told us that there waa-a hell, but descended into it, and coming forth iff oat to all the ?ges, "I have paid the pi .? - ? : .'*.'.-... . . V ' . for ali those who will make me their aub atitute and viii trust iu me." When a man baa a chance between heaven ?nd hell, to escape the one and win the other, and refuses to. do so, I ask, Does he not deserve to be lost? It is act, civ friends, a controversy between you and me, but between you and God. You may shuffle this subject off your attention, but that does not change the fact that your im penitent course is as certainly leading you to that lost world aa that Fulton street leads to Fulton ferry. You are on the road to bell turn arouud and start on the road to heaven. THE QUEER'S SPEECH. An Kxplanatlon. ol Oveat Britain's Neutral Policy.; LONDOK, January 17. . Parliament met to-day. As the Queen did not open tho session in person, there was no State ceremonial, and the pro ceedings were confined to what usually takes placa when the opening is by Royal commission. The Weather was very fine, being clear and exceptionally mild. Tho Queen'o epeech states that shnsummoned Parliament before the - usual time of meeting, in order that it might become acquainted with the efforts che has made to terminate the war, and that ehe might have its advice and assistance. She * al ludes, to har having declared her inten tion at the outbreak of the war to ob serve neutrality in a contest which she lamented, but failed to prevent 'So far. the interests of her Empire, as defined by her government, were not threatened. The Russian successes convinced the Porte that it should endeavor to bring hostilities to a close: Tho Sultan's gov ernment accordingly addressed to the neutral powers, pasties- to the treaties-re lating VJ Turfc?y^an appeal for their good SuiCes. xl Viid ??t, livn?vcP; Hppc?f to a majority of them that they could usefully comply with the request, and tba Porte was BO informed. The Porte tr m determined to make a sep?rate ap peal to her government, and Bbc at onco agreed to inquire of the Czar whether he would entertain peace overtures. The Czar in reply expressed his earnest desire for.peace, and stated his opinion as to the course which should ho pursued to attain it. Upon this subject communi cations have taken place between thc governmenta of Russia and Turkey through her good offices, aud she ear nestly truste they may lead to a termina tion of the war. She will spare no efforts to promote that result. Hitherto in the war neither of^ the belligerents bas infringed tho conditions on which ber neutrality is founded, and she will ??..,ly believes that both aro desirous to respect them as far as lies in their power. So long as her conditions are not in fringed, her attitude will continue the same, but she cannot conceal from her self that should hostilities be unfortu nately prolonged, some unexpected oe enrrecce may render it incumbent on her to adopt measures cf precaution. Such measures could not be effectually taken without adequate preparation, and ?he trusts to her Parliament's liberality to supply the means which may be re quired, for that' purpose.: The papers on ther.o affairs will be forthwith laid before Parliament. The Queen says that her relationa with all foreign powers continue friaudly. Her Majesty expresses her thanks that the Indian fa mine is nearly ended. She refers to tbe condition of affairs in South Africa rfaich has caused her seme anx iety. The troops there have been rein forced, but abe trusts for a peaceable and satisfactory settlement shortly of all dif ferences. . The estimates of the year will soon be presented to the House pf Com mons. Her Majesty, in conclusion, da tails a number of measures of a local cbaracte: that'will be laid before Parlia ment. ? - j, ?-. A S?ii?ie Charmer. Some new features have just been add ed to the attractions at the Royal Aqua rium at Westminister, which aro likely to pr ve interesting to the general pub lie, end peculiarly so to'naturalists. On? is' an exhibition of the extraordinary power which a female Abyssinian snak< charmer possesses over reptiles of th? boa constrictor class. We had an oppor tunity yesterday of witnessing thia per formaneo, which is unquestionably of i i most singular and astonishing charade! The snake charmer of Snalla diff?re ii some respects from that of the India; snake charmers who were brought t Europe by Dr. Lynn. In the latter caa the venomous cobra was shown to be <. pable of control ; but in the present ia I stance the Borpenta belong to the non venomous class, which kin their prey b; ' compression. Snalla has brought with her tbre small anacondas and a boa constrictor and Mr. Farini, to whose enterprise w owe this remarkable exhibition, oas add ed a splendid python from tho south ?vet coast of Africa. Snalla is app?rentl about twenty-eight or thirty years c ste, of a light brown color, with come wnat pleasing features, ana a Jilho an jrraceful form. Her rovser over the serpents seems t bo complete. The anacondas (wbic must not be confounded with-the gigat tic South American water snake, thoug they are of tho same genus) allow ht to treat them with the utmost familiarity During the performance she keeps u without intermission a low inonotonoi chant, supposed to be ono. of the meat ? employed lor-the charming of the rcj tiles, and they appear to be most dori and even affectionate. One will coll i -self round her waiBt, and the othe round her arma. The immense muscufa power of these creatures is shown whe one of them, clutching her wrist with i tail, extends ita body horizontally, an without app?tant effort, sways itself and fro. or erecta itself Into a vertic position. The boa is about.ten' feet lon and ia a. very beautiful serpent.. It is r markably tame. It curls itself arout Snalla's waist, and its forked tongi plays around ber bead in a manner th would bo alarming if \be performer.d not convince us by ber confidence th no evil would result. The python is recent purchase of Mr. Fanni's. It therefore, at present only undergoing tl taming process, yet Snalla bas in a fi dava go't it under such control that will submit to her manipulations, whi it will fly fiercely at a strange?.-Ixtnd Foti. - A meeting waa held in New Yoi January 17, under the auspices of t Industrial Union Club, to take action the silver question.: The follow! Trades Unions wera represented: .Bric layers, plasterers, machinists and blac smiths, painters, tailors, Crispins a cigar makers. Lengthy resolutions wi adopted setting forth that tho prest hard times ?:o the result of the contn Hon of tho currency, and that tho land filled wi'-h fraud, embezzlement, bar ruptcy, crime, suffering and starvatlo that Congress should at once abolish i Uonal banks and pasa the Bland ail bill, without amendment, and also i Ewing'resumption repeal bill. Dirac aster is predicted in the resolutions these things are not accomplished. OUU NATIONAL FINANCES, A Strong $peach (rom Roo,,' ?. VT. V<W> beer, ot Injllan*. In the United States Senate, tn IPayor of the Repeal bf tts? Resumption Aet ?ad' of the RcmonetlrA tlou of Silver. . ? . WASULNOTOM, January 16. In the Senate this morning the naile ries trere 'full and alli the vacant spaces in the chamber filled. ' Senator Voorhoes, of Indiana, called up the resolution submitted by him on the 13th of December last, declaring that it is of the highest importance that .ho financial credit of the government bo maintained, and in order to do so the government itself in all its departments should in good faith keep all its contract > and obligations entered Into with its own citizens. He referred to thc continued agitation of the finanoial question, and said that it would never oease until the peopie were satisfied that our vast debt ia in process- of extinction upon princi ples of juatico to taxpaying labor, or un til on tue other hana they are subjugated into ellen' Bubmission, and tho govern ment itself becomes changed in. spirit and form into a moneyed aristocracy. It may bo that thia latter nltomutivo ls to- overtake UH. There a.'o dark and plentiful omens in our recent history in dicating such a conclusion, and there is a numerous and powerful class in our midst who believe, as Alexander Ham ilton declared, that the British Govern ment on this, as well as on Other points, is tho best ever devised by tho wisdom of man. Those entertaining this opinion havo thus.far triumphed in tho financial legislation of thc United States, and tho time has now arrived wheo their victo ries must be reversed, or this govern ment will soon cease to bo Republican and thia people be noionger freo. HQ argued ?hat to a great exteut our whole financial system is an organ i red crime against., tho laboring,- taxpaying men and women of the. United States, and those who thought, aa be did, that a great financial reform is demanded in order to secure, tt?o peopie from slavery iu fact, if not in name, were denounced. Ho spoke of unholy avarice having its strongholds, and privileged deanes hav ing entrenched themselves, ana ?id this pica of good faith now BO loud in our ears, has neon invoked in behalf of every wickedness? that ever cursed tho world. He then spoko of tho act of February 25. 1862, as the beginning of our bended .dent. The piecioua metals were 'found to be unequal to the emergency of war. Specie payments were abandoned as soon a? the nour of trial cams, and gold and silver cowered in the rear, .while the legal-lender dollar went to the front with the flag, and stayed there. He was amongst those who' doubted, our right to issue it, bnt experience had shown it (all things considered) the best money that ever circulated on American soil. He argued that by this' act, and by sim ilar legislation at subsequent periods, every bond issued by the government which -did not on its face stipulate for payment in coin,, was made payable by tho express "-ordaof law in legal-tender notes.' He: quoted from tho- language o? the late Thaddeus Stevens to the effect that even tho payment of the interest on I bonds in coin waa an odious and unjust discrimination in favor of the bond holder. He also quoted fro MI thc speech es of Senator Sherman to show that bc expressed the opinion that the bondi were payable in legal tenders. Thc speaker characterized'he-acts'of Con gress proposing to pay tho bonds in coin as the beginning of repudiation. Thc present Secretary of the Treasury rwa? the chief of the repudiators, forSmopl among the violators of contract, and ? leador among those who have in no in' stance kept the good faith of tho Govern ment with its own people a moment aftei they found that bad faith would brin; them richer gains. Mr. Voorhees commented at som? length on. the act of 1869 to pay-tm bonds in coin, and said that in somi countries tho habit prevailed of buildini a cairn, a pilo of stones, to marje the apb where some tragic event had happened So let American taxpayers, wneneve tho act of 1860 is cited, each cast a stoni upon it to mark the place in America) history where r?pudiation began, am where the rights of the people were mer cilessly and treacherously . slaughtered He next commented on tho rcfuodiUi act of July Uth, 1870, and. said that i was brought in to aid in the false asset tion of the act of 1860, that our whol bonded debt was payable in coin. H argued that both of these acts wer framed in the interest Of the bondholder] and under their dictation. But eve under these acts tho bends were payab) with either gold or silver coin, and nc payable with gold alone. Mr... Voorhees then ?poko . at Bom length in regard to the nd vantage 'of si ver coin, and said that the silver dolli came to us with the birth of our govert ment. It was devised aaa unit of vain by Thomas Jefferson and adopted b Congress in tho days of. Wasbingtoi Hamilton and Morris. It stood as not orcd as gold through every storm tbs beat upon this government. It is as? ciated with ail our developments, ot strength, our growth, and our glory. H then Bpoke ot tho act' of 1673 demone iziug silver, and said it was passed witt out a note of. warning to the j America people that their favorite coin was abo; to be destroyed as money. Its chao ment was as completely unknown to1 tl people, and indeed to dour-li tibs- of Col gross itself, as the presence of a burgh in a house at midnight to ita sleepii inmates. He argued that tho silver: dc ?ar wan eiiminaied irom our moneys*/ tem under cover of false pretences, nt that silver had not failed in ita functio; as a specie basis any more than gol Of tho entire trading and coin me rei populations of the whole earth, 696,261 OOO, more have silver alone as' tb< aUic?ard of vaiues, and transact aii,;u< business upon it as a specie basis tbi those who haye. gold alone for aimil purposes, and 761,200,000 more peor, uso silver alone than use gold and silv both aa their metallic currency. Ii ferring to the specie rcsamption act January 14, 1875, he said that an attorn to force the resumption of specie pi menta with gold and silver both aa o metallic basis would bo a cruel Xailuro this timo. He spoke of tho great abrir age in values arising from tho shrinks of money in circulation, and said it * the immediate cause of that gene bankruptcy and ruin which new "Hil t land. If the policy1 of this govcfnra< has been to inflict the greatest misery the greatest number ita success has "bc complete. ' He was not an inflationist any sense that would disturb the true teres ts of trade and commerce. Duri the ?hole four years of 1868, 1864, li and -1866, when the volume of our c i re ney- averaged over a thousand millie .tho business failures bf the entire coi try reached only 2,167, lesa in nam than occurred in any three months of i year just closed. During tho per which is now stigmatized as one of ' flation, tho windows of business hou i were not darkened, and business men not gO a? mu?riic?b ?b?ut. the StTC f The laborer did not. go borne with bread to his Wife and cK:!drcs. Kelp! m ?Moni? did not cower and; tremble at tho approach of winter for the lacie of food audshelter. The public peace was not broken by riots in resistance to star vation wages. The courts were nqf. prin cipally occupied in enfr rcic- rsllec?ons. foreclosing mortgages, ordering sheriffs sales, or in punishing the destitute and the outcast. These are some things which did not take place. Othero that did are equally striking. Good wages and good prices stimulated every labor ing man's muscle, every business man's brain and every power of machinery into tho highest and most productive activity. Hope and encouragement wero in every heart. [ New farms were bought and cul tivated". 'New workshops were opened. New - manufactories were established. New mines of iron, coal and BU vcr were sunk Into the earth, whoso content? in re turn assisted in the glad acclaim of a universal individual ard national pros vu?ritv. Mr. Voorhees argued that there ia not a dollar to-day in tho hands of the' peo ple on which they have rat paid a tax for the privilege or having it put in cir culation by tho government. Tho na tional bank hy tho middleman between tba government and the people, and ls enormously paid for doing what the gov ernment ought directly to do itself. He spoke, of the eyils ol the national bank ing system, and said that if the national banks were a blessing then our public debt was a blessing, for tho debt supports the banks. In concluding be said that those for whom he spoke demanded tho restoration of the silver dollar and its un limited coinage, bot fearing it would be come tod plentiful, and that it bo mado a legal tender. Second, they demanded the repeal unconditionally of tho apecio resumption act of January 14, 1875. Third, they demanded that the national banking avstera be removed arid a circu lating medium provided by tho govern ment for the people without taxing them for the privilege of obtaining it, and they ask that the amouut thus placed is cir culation should bear a reasonable and ju dHous proportion tc tho business ' trans actions and the population of the United' States.

" In tue Senate the very brief speech of Senator Bruce, of Mississippi, in eulogy of Mr. Morton, wt? greatly admired. It exceeded in pathos and was hardly short in poetry of tho closing harangue deliv ered by Mr. Voorhees. The tribute to the dead war Governor by Senator McDonald was very touch* insr. Morning business having been disposed of, Mr. McDonald, of Indiana, submitted the following : Resolved, That from an earnest desire to show every mark* of respect to the mem ory of tho lion. Oliver V.

Resolved, Tust a wide* spread and nub ile corrow on the announcement of his death attested the profound 6er.se of tho loss which the whole cvintry hos sus tained. Resolved, That as a mork of respect for tho memory of Mr. Morton the members of thc Son?to will go into mourning by wearing crape on thu loft arm for thirty days. Resolved, That, the Secretary of tho Seuste communicate these resolutions to the House of Representatives. ' Agreed to. Mr. McDonald reviewed at length tho life, character and ?prvices of tho late Kr-r.at/ir an ri na t ri that bv hlS dft?th S great name had' boen stricken from the roll of the Senate. Nowhere would his loss be felt so severely as among his friends and followers in his native State. He spoke of the warmth and strength ol the affections of thc dead Senator, and said thnt if be bad faults, let them be buried with him. Let his friends and associates remember and cherish only those kindly feelings and sontimontc which his higher .ind better qualities in spired. Mr. Thurman, of Ohio, said thnt occa sions like this were not' the proper time for universal .praise on the ono hand, ,01 criticism* on the other, of the political life of a deceased Senator.' He (Mr Thurman) would speak of tho late Sena tor Oil a mon nrrt au o nnlliiAtcM ?h?&fi?! w? - - -, .? g"". "*. , ?uu"?l it was difficult to separate the roan fron the politician, for he lived ?ud raovec and had his hoing in the atmosphere a Eol?tica. In any sphere of life ho woulc ave been a remarkablo man. Ho wai a Bcholar, but his speeches were distin guished for earnestness. In social inter course he was universally courteous an?: amiable, und it was gratifying to hin (Mr. Thurman) to say that no uukltu word e"*er passed between him and tm lato Senator. . Mr. Conkiing, of Now York, spoke o the practice of undent timer.., when thosi nearest the dead spoke at their funeral and extolled tba virtues of loved onea and referring to . the certainty of deatb said that the dark valley with its wein and solemn Bhad?ws, although illumine! by Christianity, is still tho ground whicl man shudders to approach. Ho then re ferred to the services of the Into Senate and the usage of the Senate of payin, public tribute to those of the membci who have gone before. When a Scnatoi worn out with labora which observed n hours, crowned with honora well.carne and duties well done, beckoned by th shadowy hand, retreated from the din ? life, and the gates had been closed bchin him forever, it wan decorous that thos who wcro so soon to follow should pauf and testify to tho public *he esteem i which they hold him and tl. J approbatio which they knew he deserved. Ho arot only to add his tribute of respect and ut 1 miration for thc services ana the genii of the remarkable man tr hose death wt ! mourned to-day. As a party leader I was too great for any State or any pari to readily supply his place. As a vig lant representative he had no superior i ? either House of Congress. Crippled I I bodily infirmity, his mind nover falten or flagged. No Labor discouraged bin no contingency appalled him ; no disai vantage dismayed him ; no defeat di heartened him. Those who encounter? him in debato would never forget h ability, bis courage, and above all nie i domitable heart. He would go down a far hereafter, not as ono who embe! Ished bis name by a scholastic and st?dii use of words, but rather as ono who, di by day on the journey of life, met rea ties, and affairs, and grappled thom wi a grasp resolute and quick. Ho need no epitaph' but his name, and thom brass might corrode and marble mool men would still. remember Oliver' Morton as ? leading and manful defe der of the ' Republic, in the Rcpubli most dire and heroic age. " Mr. Morgan, of Alabama, said tl upon an occasion like this, when a natl was paying its respect to a dead Senat it was not fitting that -the section Whl he represented should bo silent. A bama laid upon the tomb of tho b Senator a bow of her evergreen magno crowned with the white emblem of pea and with it extended to Indiana 1 heartfelt sympathy. . He then spoke th? prominent traits of Mr. Morto Character, and said that though his H tdro was intensely combative, his ear .> ever ready to listen to the bugles of tm Ho was no conspirator. His nature \ above th st mean level. . lie waa au op bold and defiant antagonist, sud hhs I Eonents always knew where to find h ie lived during tho most corrupt err our history, and bad every ' opportun to grow rich by stealth, but no cscaj every suspicion of dishonesty.

He then allu< to the attachment which the colored i ?de felt for him, and said that porn ow public men, except Abraham I coln and Charles Sumner, were be known to the 'colored people and a loved and revered. Mr. Voorhees, of Indiana, conclu the eulogies, and said that the Sci bad been uttering the last words over gravo of one who played n boid pat ?olitics. . The late Senator and birr ccazne personal aa well as polit friends in early life, and although after years their political opinions \ as widely separated as the poles, t personul fivixiJahip remained unbro He HM.; ? .* tho life of tho late Sen as being ono worthy of imitation, ha1 become a great man by his own efF If he could net bo President himself did much to put others in that office to dictato their policies.* .
