of the Ssnate of the 3d instant, all tbe
information in my possession not
heretofore furnished relating to affairs
in tbe State of Arkansas. I will vou
ture to expresv the opinion tbat all tbe
testimony shows that in the election
of 1872, Joseph Brooks was lawfully
elected Governor of that State: that he
'has been'unlawfully-deprives of the
possession of his office sinoa that time;
that in 1874, the Constitution of tbe
State was by violence, intimidation
and revolutionary proceedings over?
thrown and a new Constitution adopt?
ed and a new State Government estab?
lished. These proceedings, if permit?
ted to stand, practically ignore all the
rights of minorities in all the States;
and what is there to proveut eaoh of
tbe States recently re-admitted to
Federsl relations on certain conditions
from changing their Constitutions and
violating their pledges, if this action
in Arkansas is acquiesced in? I re

In the Sonate,{Spencer, of Alabama,

of Representatives in Congress from
tbe State of Alabama. A number of
bills, reported by the Committee on
Patents, were passed; but one to ex?
tend the patent for a trimming at?
tachment for sewing maohines, used
only in tbe manufacture of boots and
shoes, was rejected by a vote of 23
nays to 18 yeas. Several Senators de?
clared their opposition to extending
may sewing machine patent. A bill
to amend tbe steamboat laws wan de?
bated at some length, but a final vote
was not reached. Morton, from the
Committee on Privileges and Elec?
tions, made a report, recognising Eel
logg ?8 Governor af Louisiana,.nnd
declaring Pinckbaek entitled ? to .tbe
?eat as United States Senator from
that State, from March 4. 1873.
Hamilton, of Maryland, raised a point
of order, that' tho report was aiguod
by only four members of the commit?
tee, which was not,^,n}eipritor?the
committee being composed of nine
members. Morton-argued that there
were seven members present when the
report waa made, and Qvo constituted
a quorum. The report was signed by
a majority of those present. Him*
iltonV point of order was over ruled,
when he gave notice that bo would
submit a minority report.

veys for a permanent plan for tho re?
clamation of the alluvial basin of the
Mississippi River; rejected?yeas, 122;
nays, 73; not two-thirds in tho affirtnu
tive. Speer, of Pennsylvania, moved
to suspend tbe rules and adopt a reso?
lution declaring that, in tbe judgment
of tbe House, the election of a Presi?
dent for a third term is against the
[ tradiliona of the republic, is iu viola?
tion of the example of Washington,
now fcaorud as law itaslf, and would be
hazardous alike lor the iibertiea of tbe
people aud tbe free institutions of tbe
country. The motion was lost, tbe
previoaa question not being seconded
?57 to 102. All who voted for it,
with the exception of Smith, of North
Carolina, were Demoorats, und all who
voted against it were Republicans.

The Modbbn School Oibl.?Every*
body is aware that sentimentality,
slate-pencils and picklee, go band-in
haud with the .modern school-girl,
She is an completely saturated with
the first as David Copperfield was with
lovo for Dora; she believes that friend?
ship is a plant of immortal verdure,
though her own limited experience
ought to teaoh tier that it ia of deoidu
ous growth; she keeps a volume of
autographs of persons remarkable for'
nothing but their insignificance and
bad baud writing: her scrap-book is a
mosaic of moral maxims, comic songs,
love sick rhymes and deoalcomanie;
her diary is not so muoh a reoord of
her individual emotions as a reflection
from the inner lifo of her favorite
heroines in romance; she eats sweet?
meats and digests sensational novels;
her ideal is a black-browed lover at
whom society shakes its head, after the
manner ol Rochester; while Lucy
Snow's Paul Emanual seems to her a
very poor apology zor a hero, at whom
she would not vouchsafe a second
glanco. Iu composition, she is prone
to indulge in the melaucholio style,
and if sentimentality is her god, Mrs.
Hornaus and L. E. L. aro the prophets
whom sho most affects. Read her let?
ters to her comrades and those she
writes home, and you will hardly guess
that tho same mind bad framed them
both; the one is all extravagance und
poetry, while the other is apt to be a
meagre statement of progress?a
financial complaint?with suggestions
toward a dress reform, for our young
girl bus her practical side as well as
her sentimental, and puts no faith in
beauty unadorned. She poors out her
soul to her bosom friend, but enter?
taining an idea that older folk have no
sympathy with tho longings and aspi?
rations of youth, and are wholly ab?
sorbed in the sordid cares of life, with
small interest in the piny of the finer
emotions, ber nearest of kin are often
left in utter ignorance of ber peculiar
faculty for gushing. And perhaps
this is not so unnatural as it seemB,
siuoe confidences must be invited by
confidences; the bosom friend gives
measure for measure, but are there not
often gulfs o! reservo existing between
the school girl and her mother or older
friends in the matter of the emotions?
Perbapa we would not have oar school?
girl other than ahe is, with the excep?
tion of the pickles and oluto pencils,
the too early lessons in flirtation which
she pruoticea, and the respect for dress
which she develops. Only a few gene?
rations back our mothers sent us to
school in cool ginghams?yes, and in
warm liuaey-woolseys fashioned in all
simplicity; the jeweler did not bore
our ears, eor haug chainn about our
small necks; nor did the mantua-maker
shape our figures to her patterns a
generation ago. But to-day we hear
inquiries for corsets for children of ten
years, and we begin to reflect that the
school-girl may not be altogether to
blame for ber weaknesses and morbid
tastes. She wears finer clothes at her
recitations now than her grand-mo?
thers donned on holidays?clothes
more elaborately designed, and in
such sickening mimicry of adalt fa?
shions that it would seem, after all. as
if ber precocious fondness for adorn?
ment might be reasonably charged to
the vanity of her guurdiaoB. How?
ever, our school-girl will doubtless
work clear of her weaknesses in time.
Her sentimentalities will get winnowed
in the process of living, and the chuff
separated. The girl who weeps over
"The Children of the Abbey" and
??The Mysteries of Udolpbo" at sixteen
will be convulsed with laughter on a
second reading at twenty; and ahe will
one day discover that tho safest ear
into whioh ahe can pour her confidence
is the maternal; while even the inor?
dinate lOveof dress and of masoaline
?nl mi ration that lias been engrafted in
tho tender sailing, may be Btibordi
unto to higher impulse* in proportion
as too original stock iu healthy and
v i gorous. -^-Exchange.
