The death of Justice Lamar has recalled his well known devotion to the confederacy, and his love for the leader of the lost cause was productive cf one of the most dramatic scenes in the history of the senate. The Mexican pension bill was under consideration and an amendment pending extending its provisions to all veterans irrespective of their course in the war between the states. Congress, it was said could best show its desire to forgive and forget by extending the benefits *f the measure to those who had once borne arms against the country. The amendment was utai adoption, says the Washing, ton Post,when senator Zach Chandler came to his feet with a short speech in which he said that while in the main he agreed to the general tenor of the amendment, yet under its provisions even Jeff Davis would be restored to citizenship. And he added, “1 am not prepared to go so far as that.”

Lamar' rose. His intense excitement was evident. Betweeu him and Chandler a strong personal antagonism existed. An outburst was expected and it came- “ Mr. President,” said the Mississippian, with outstietched finger pointiug at his foeman, his tall form trembling with emotion, but his voice bell-like in its clearness and without a quiver m it, “when Prometheus lay bound to the rook it was not the king of beasts who availed himself of his distress.— It was not any of the nobler brutes of the field or birds of the air. It was the vulture, the scavenger of the animal kingdom gluttoning upon cairion which preyed upon his vitals, knowing that in a defenseless man who could move neither hand or foot, he had one into whosa vitals he could dig his beak.”

He sat down amid a stillness so profound that the rustle of a paper sounded harshly, chandler was deadly pale. Drops of per*, spiration stood Upon his forehead aid he clenched the arms of his ch air until the strain’d wood creaked, It was expected that he wo’d reply, but be failed to do so. The Hoosier drill company of Richmond, this state, in answer to a letter of inquiry as to how the result of the recent election had affected their business, s« nt the following reply: Richmond, Ind. Jan. 21,1898. We have to sav ii. answer to your inquiries of 10th instant that we do not see that our busineso has yet been afFected by the election and have so fer no indications of diminished orders for 1893 on account of tariff and silver agitation aud have not reduced wages, but our business is not o. e to be affected so soon by the result of the election and the change of policy likeh to follow. Other lines will feel the effect first and we expect ours to suffer in the near future in common with others from the unfavorable legislation, or the liability of it, and the mism nagement that will follow as a notural result, when the ‘unworthy, mcom petent and unscrupulous party,” soon to assume the reins of government, actually get control. Hoosier Drill Company.

Democratic farmers of Indiana, after perusing the last four lines of the at ove letter, will likely tumble over| each other in their wild Irate to purchase a “Hoosier” drill.— They should certainly feel flatter* ed at the high estimate placed upon their integrity by this pamper* ed pet of monopoly. ' On Thursday night of last week George Randolph, an ex Catholic priest, undertook to lecture to a Lafayette audience on “Why I left the Catholic church.” A riat oc* curred in which over twenty shots were fired.

All th > best citizens, of all denominations, greatly deplore *he unfortunate occurrence.
