KCHURS SPEECH. THE SCEXE IX THKSEXATE.
While Senator Schurz was delivering his
speech on finance the Chicago Tribune's
Washington correspondent thus describes
the scene: Whenever Senator Schurz gives
notice that he will deliver a set speech on
any subject, at the appointed time the peo
ple crowd around him. feeling perfectly
confident he will sav something worth lis
tening to. lie announced iust belore ad
journment Friday evening, that he would
discuss the finances when the senate met again, and, notwithstanding the threadbare
condition of the subject, the galleries were
crowded to-day. Even the diplomatic box
was filled. To use a theatrical expression,
the largest and most delighted audienceof the
season greeted the uistinguisneu senator.
Mr. Schurz has been credited with making
several great speeches since he be
came prominent in American politics,
but his efforts to-day fairly surpassed all of
bis previous successes, ins bitterest oppo
nents acknowledge its brilliancy and re
markable force, and say they never listened
to such a strong presentation oi me specie
resumption side of the financial problem.
At the finish. Mr. Schurz was warmly complimented by Senators Howe, Sumner, 1 'en-
ton. Hamlin. Thurmau. Jiogv. ana otners.
That the expansionists were taken by sur
nnse and their cause badly damaged, was
evident from the frequent consultations held
while Mr. Schurz was speaking, by senators
Morton, Eogan, Cameron, and lernmon,
and tho bad temper shown bv Mr. Morton
while attempting later in the day to reply to
the argument ot the Missourian. several
times during the delivery of his address Mr.
Schurz was loudly applauded, and no effort
was made bv the chair (Mr. rerry, or .Mien-
iean) to restrain the audience from express
ing thetr appreciation of the good points
with which the speech fairly urisiieu.
PLENTY OF AXES. I From the Sullivan Iemocrat.
Hon. Thomas 11. Cobb, of inceunes, was in
reasons, Conkling feneers; briefly, these lead-J towu a few days ago, forming the acquaintance
man, but hia qualifications for the office were neither known to me nor the men who procured and forced bis nomination upon the convention. Captain Jones does not reC resent the democratic party of Kentucky, ut only a faction of that party, composed of those ex-confederates such as were willing to accept amnesty, but are themselves unwilling to forgive those who defeated them in the late civil war. That he is the distinctive representative, of that faction is abundantly established by the facts. Counties where Captain Jones bad never been heard of, except by a few of his brother braves, instructed for him over men who were well known and favorably throughout the state, and whose thorough qualifications for the office every voter well understood. The only recommendation Captain Jones bad with the people of the great majority of counties that instructed for hint was that he was said to be a crippled ex-confederate soldier. This wach-word was passed along the lines, from county to county, and the connty meeting were fully attended and controlled by those who still remembered and revered "the "lost caKse." So far as the country knows the sole merit of Captain Jones which procured his nomination over well-known and tried democrats is that be was a confederate soldier and was wounded. He was nominated because he was a wounded ex-confederate soldier. Whether he possesses other qualifications, neither myself nor the people are advised. We must take him, if at all, upon his soldier record. We must, as democrats, fill in line and do homage to the lost cause by voting for a man only because he was wounded in the confederate service. It is not necessary that I should say that in good faith I have maintained, by word and action, that it should not be counted as merit or demerit in politics how any one stood during the rebellion whether he fought upon the one side or the other but that his present political status, personal character, and qualifications of office should alone be considered. Soldiership is no qualification fo civil office. Certainly I can not bo called upon to vote for any man
merely upon the ground that he fohght against me. I do not propose to
Ut.OIUKY HIS SIDE OF THE BATTLE
bv being controlled by such reason. I have
again and again voted warmly and heartily
lor men wno were in the conieuerate ser
vice, and expect to do so again, but it was
because they were, in my judgment,qualified for the offices they sought, and because they sought the offices as good citizens, and not as ex-confederates. If the democratic party of Kentucky chooses to join in the "lo triomphe" of the "exanimate" confederacy so jubilantly sounded upon the nomination of Captain Jones at Frankfort, I will not join in the chorus. If the democracy of Kentucky choose, by the support of Captaia Jones, that it was a democratic merit to have been wounded in the confederate service, I will not subscribe to the proclamation. If the 'democratic party or Kentucky intends to go back on its previous declarations, and at this late period assume it to be a democratic duty to reward those who were in rebellion Wcause they
were so arrayed, I can not co-operate in such
course, but enter my dissent and my opposition. This attempt, through the name
of democracy, to revive the issuei
and antagonisms of the civil war,
bv declaring it a meritorious ac-
of democracy to have fought on the side of
rebellion, is to my mind as reprehensible, and to be as severely condemned by conservative men and patriots, as that sentiment announced by the other extreme, to "make treason odious" by oppressing those who fought and acted on the southern side.
Those who in good faith fought upon the side of the south, and in good faith yielded
to the force of arms, must and will depre
cate this revival of the war issues and mein
ones as earnestly as l uo. ine faction or
clique of bitter and unforgiving men within
the democratic party ,hat desires to keep
alive the animosities or the civil war I be
lieve to be a very small element.
THE DAVENPORT TRAGEDY. PARTI CTLARS OF THE TERRIBLE MURDER OF A MOTHER AXD HER CHILD. The terrible tragedy at Davenport, Iowa, has already been mentioned in the Sentinel. The Davenport Democrat gives the particulars: About seven o'clock last evening Mr. Brownlie left bis home and laiuily, consisting of wife and four children, to go over to hU father's house, about a mile distant. Aiout half an hour, or less, after be bad gone, the tragedy occurred. Mrs. Krownlie wa3 sitting at a window sewing. Beside her, on a stool, was the youngest child, Andrew, four years old. The other three children were in the same room, playing upon tho floor. Soon Mrs. Brownlie heard a noise at a window in another room. She listened and said "Hush!" to the children. That was tho signal for her death. In an instant a large brick was thrown through the window, crashing through glass and sash, and falling upon the lloor. Then followed a deafrniug report, and a shot gun was discharged from eutside the window, the entire charge entering the lelt shoulder, and almost tearing the arm from the socket. The murdeier saw that this one shot was not fatal and in a moment, before she could get awav, another one followed, the contents of the gUn striking the poor woman in the left breast, fine gave one long agonized shriek, fell to the lloor, and in a minute was a corpse. The last shot had been so close to Mrs. Brownlie that her dress was set on lire. Willie, next to the oldest child, noticed this, and coiu; forward extinguished the llame with his bare hands. A large portion of the f-tot that killed his mother struck tho face of the little boy Andrew, cutting it eo seriously that death or disfigurement may result. The child to-day is undtr proper medical care, and may possibly recover. The father returned home in about an hour alter tho murder took place, at alxut half-pasts o'clock. The first thing he saw was the dead body of his dear wife lying upon the floor in a'pool of blood, and blood over her clothes.face and breast. He gazed at
tne a wru I 6ight in abject horror. The olde.'t child, who with the others had been biding in terror in a corner, came forward and told tho story of her mother's death. Two men, at least, wer? concerned in tho murder. The prime object of tho villains must have been either robbery or something worse. No one can imagine what was the real objeet of the murderers, or who they are. Some of the neighbors started oil in pursuit, but nothing further was learned of them. It is thought that the perpetrators belong in that vicinity, although nothing is known as yet to justify such a belief.

NOT JOIN IN THK CHORUS." The Louisville Commercial, of yesterday prints the following sqbstance of an inter
view with Ex-Governor Bramlette on the
stand upon the record of this session before j recent democratic convention at Frankfort
the people in the fall, and as thev have be
come watchful over our expenditures, we mast cut them down to the lowest practical figure. We must avoid inflation, and we must avoid contraction iu order to avoid any financial disturbance in the country. "We shall, moreover, have to cut down our regular and incidental appropriations as lar as we can, in order to avoid increased taxation; and all great jobs in the way of internal improvements, steamship and telegraph subsidies, will have to be put off to a more convenient season. And ye on tea. coffee, tobacco and whisky we ma have to put on some small taxes that wil give ua fifty millions additional revenue. Wt may have to do something for the Westert granges, in the way of cheapening theii transportation to the east, but a committet of inquiry on the subject, as the last resort, will serve for present purposes.

and the nomination or C aptain Jones as
clerk of the court of appeals. Governor.
Bramlette states his reasons in a sufficiently
clear way to be comprehended. Reporter
It is rnmored that you will not support the
nomination of Captain Jones, made at Frankfort on Wednesday. Is this rumor
true?
Governor Bramlette It is true that I have
announced' my determination and the rea
sons for not supporting the election of Cap
tain Jones, and my purpose to vote for and sustain any competent man who may run
tgainst him, without regard to party. Reporter The public will be glad "to learn
your reasons lor that course, and I will be

misapprehended.
Gov. Bramlette captain Jones may be a
competent clerk, ana personally, a worthy
franking privilege, or a portion of it, will be restored the present session. The symp
toms are infallible. Members of congress do not cluster around new and fifth-rate

In two days of dish-water arguments for a return of the frank, the small potato members have chirrupped in favor of free postage-stamps to wide ears and nlenty of them. Tupper platitudes and Buifuz logic were as good as Ciceronian eloquence, if they only led up to the
