friends have based his clalmi principally Wpon hl service aa . governor of Indiana, and have boeu pleased to designate him as the -'Great War Governor." Bat If his Claims are predicated upa the ability he displayed In war, they will to met by counter claim for hie principal rival, who la na iceaUonably tba greiter military man of the two. General Grant bi often smelt gunpowder, and If the tnator ever d d it waa on a mall scale or at a aafe distance. Toe president may have also tasted it for aught wa know, for aold;era sonietlir ea mix the Tillainoua aaltpolcr with their whisky to give them dash acd daring. In this, loo, he has an advantage over the senator, lor tbf latter la not noted for hi ability to atilire either gunpowder or whisky. Therefore, il Senator Morton relies for lanxM ou bis war racotd, or bU ability to drink wti'ky or burn gunpowder, hi aapi: itions will coaoe to naught. Some other quality or merit mnat be developed and kniwti, or else, in hi contest with General Grint .'or the nomination, he will go to the wall. And happily for the senator, the Gaxitte, correspondent has discovered that he h - a quality of mind not possexaed by any other Uinp. It is this power of determluin vexed and knotty questions, thrown tine medium of drtatns. In this faculty h6 baa no competitor, and It gives him ?r?sS advantage over those who aspire,

witü aim, to the Republican nomination in 1W . His friend should keep this fact bd.'ort tli people, for it is bis bert hold. In th other qualities" claimed for him he Las rivals, but ai a dreamer, he is without a pr. gJ'JS ' 1 The Journal, having authority from Governor Morton to deny as lake that which It published a few days before in ita own column, that ho favored a repeal of the reutuption act, like a truo organ, change it boa on the finance question. In opening Out oq the financial question It claims the riht 16 change ita policy aa often as it may ele- t. but rather congratulated itself that it oco-:;ies tto earne ground that it did a lew Kwtkiggo, Mr. Morton evidently having givf-u that permission. Let us examine the true inwardness of the Journal's position on finance a it now dsnaes it. The Sentinel venture to say th it its tails are not yet properly set to c-.itch the greenback breeze tbat is blowiDg In the West. The people will not be able to underst tad what the Journal means when it iys it does cot favor the repeal ol the reu caption act, and still opposes contraction of the currency. The people will not believe that the Journal favors letting the currency alone at its preaeui volume when greenbacks are being retired everyday by the operation of tbe resumption law. They will not telivj that tuo Journal favors the retirement Of the national btnk currency, when it sets up the barrier that only ?100,000,000 ol greenbacks can be issued, as the people know full well tbat tte same power that limited the greenback Isnva to $400,000,000 could repeal the liaiitiuz clause as they did after the former Im'jm, which, also, had similar limiting cUai. In 'act, every position that the Jor.mal assumes is contradictory and sho-s clearly tbat it Is simply trimming to catch the unwary at the suggestion ol Mr. Morton. In this state the Journal very well knows that three-lourtb-of its own pRrty are now clearly cooiiuittol to the greenback policy, acd this effort Is a mere subterfuge to prevent their reatuncinc a party allegiance ti.at is pursuing steadily contraction, disturbing Commerce and producing the ruin of tousn is. The people will not trust to a leadership o equivocal; that openly professes to be read v to change in a fortnight. Bishop Gilbert Haven, in a religious g itbaring at Beaton of preachers and Sunday-hool workers, proposed an Indorsexnsat of Grant for a third term as a measure of nttlonal tafety. This is a very queer movement, and that auch a resolution ahou'.d have passed unanimously is passing strsrge. Religious bodies, In times of national danger, have often deemed It neces aary that they should not meet without giving encouragement and sympathy to the aolJ'ero in the Held and to the cabinet at home, but that there is any sort of religious necessity for the re-election of Mr. Grant aa president of the United States is so supremely ridiculous that we can scarcely cred-.t the telegraphic reports of the meeting. Thicks have come to a pretty pass 11 Mr. Grant has become a religious necessity, or h:s political supremacy longer to be desired. Whi'e the very air of the whole country in3!'.s of fraud and corruption; while the very white house itself has been invaded by the bailiff of justice, and arrests are screened by the intervention of a court martial, and while habits of personal infirmity are notorious, for a body of Christian to go out of their way to declare that hit further preferment is a necessity lor the safety of the country is n satire upon religion, and a scandal upon the character Of fas virtuous and eminent statesmen of both parties of the country. Mr. Grant is cot the only man in a population of forty mi'.Ücus of people that can save our liberties. Mr. Grant is a tolerably good judge of horse?, was a fair toldier, but he has not proved in atatesmacsblp tbat the world was awaiting bis coming to rule in America in order that tuo mUIsclum might be statted. Ttere wero many resolutions tbat iniht have been more appropriate for the religious meoting over which Bishop Haven presided. They might have resolved that dnnkenrem is a great sin, tbat evil associations have demoralizing eflects, that stealing U forbidden by jositive commandment, that shielding iniquity is partaking in the oSease, sni do23ns of other things pertinent somewhat ts the public and private character or a ruler. But to pass by such legitimate thenars, sins of the day, sins in high places, and simply say that Grant Is a necessity, would appear a prostitution ol religious functions, an Intrusion of political sentiment averse to the moral instincts and religious sensibility of the people, clothed In religious garb, that can but awaken disgust In three-fourths, if not ninetotitha, of the people of the whole land.

AN 1MMXNIK C ROWD PRESRST KLKCTION OF MR KKRR LOUISIANA LOOMS UP FOR A WF.ILK KLKcriON OF OTHER 0FFICKRS KrtU OriHHIIOL'lK The opening of the forty-fourth Coogreea was marked by the presence in and around the cap 1U1 of a largar orowd thia probably ever before watched olmllar proceedings. Although It was wet and dreary, the weather seemed to have little or no effect In laatralnlug the ea gerne, of the multitude which basOoired Into the c:ty for the past few days, And from an early hour the galler lea of the I louse of Representatives were packed as elosely as possible, then the hall Itself and all the approaches and every available Hace be came gradually filled up, until, as the hour of ii'jOD approacuMl, it aa ainioit iruitoaalble lor one to make bis way In any direction through the mm The majority of thtm were directly or indirectly iutereHted In places and cmnluinenta which the cb arizes of pollllsal parties in the lioutie offtrs. At 1 o'cloeS the House was called to order by Mr. Mcl'oersou, clerk ot the House of the Forty-third CiiKiea, and the hall was cleared of all not entitled to 1U privilege. The attendanee of mem bom a very full. neatly every seat being occupied. Air. Mcl'heraon theu called the names of the members by ata es, commencing with Mulne. In repird to the rppre"etitatiou from tbe thirty-third district of New York, tue clerk reiuind-d the Houe that the permm llrst elected bad died and the person elected to fill the vacancy had presented credentials ho peculiar In form that the clerk preferred to hubmlt the question to the House. In reference to the Louisiana delegation, the clerk naid lha. he bad leeeivrd two seta of cerUncaicj for the flist lonr dlatilcta, both sets infloating the election of tbesame peraons. As to the tilth district, he Lad received two certificates, one nigned by W'm. .Pitt Kellogg, bowlng the election of Mr. Morey, and the other signed by John McKnery, howln-t tue election of Mr. Spencer, and that as Kellos was the de facto governor, he (the clerk) had acted on hla certificate and had enrolled Morey. Aa to the sixth district he haj only received one certificate, hlgnvd by Kellasg, and he had acted on that. The cll concluded, the clerk announced tbat two hundred aud elghtv-tlx members baa answered to their names. Tbe absentees were Dobbins, of New Jemey; F.gbert, of i'ennsylvanla, who had returned home this morning on account of death In hla family; Hteveus of tieorRia, and Oliver, of Ioa. These with the two vacancies from the thirty-third district of flew York and the fourth district of Tennessee make two hundred and ninety-two members, of wnicu me iiouse is compoeea. X LECTION OF THE SPEAKER. Mr. Lamar, of Mississippi, moved that the lloQKe proceed to the election of a speaker. Agreed to. Mr. Lamar I put in nomination for the office of speaker of the Ilonae of the Forty-fourth Cougrea, Michael C. Kerr, a member-elect from thu state of Indiana. Mr. Wheeler, of New York I nominate for the f nie poHiiiou, Jamea O. Itlalue, of the tttate of Maine.

Hlaine received IC, Alpheus S Wialams, of Michigan, one. cast by flanks; Alexander (Jam pbrl , of 1 11 InoU. one, cast by Ander.oii,or I'linoii, Wlllam Andemou. 'The clerk appointed Messta, Kan da 11 and JUaine (otscort tue speaker elect to the chair. As Mr. Kerr wis conduced down the main aisle to the ap-aker'a chair there was considerable dapping of bands on the democratic side of the Iiouse. The speaker, ou takln hla position, aald: Oentlenaen of the House of itepreentatlveM: I am heartily grateful to you for the honor which you have conferred upou me in calling me to thia exalted tatlon. 1 profoundly appreciate the Importance and delicacy of ita datlea. I shall, donbteK4, many times need yonr patient Indulgence. I pray tbat you will grant it and with nothing bat kindly feellaga toward every member ef tbe Honse, I proinle that In all my official acta I will dlvettt rayaelf tothe otmost of my ability of all personal biaa and observe complete fairne and Impartiality toward all the greatand diversified interest of our country represented In this House. Mr. Kelley, of Pennsylvania, as the oldest member of the House In continuous service, ad ministered tbe oath of oftlce to the speaker. The oath waa then administered by the apeakr to the metnbera, beginnlirg with those from the New England states, who, on being called, ranged themselves in the area In frjnt of the elrk'a desk and there, with uplifted hands, went through their part of tbe ceremony. What is known as the ironclad oatb was tbe form administered to the members generally, but Mxtyone of the Southern member, being unable to take that oath, tbe modified oath was administered to them. " THE LOUISIANA QUESTION. Mr. Wood.t of New York, objected to Mr. Morey, of Louialana, and Mr. Garfield, of Oslo, objected to Mr. Good, of Virginia. 1 berefore there gentlemen were not per milted to qualify. Subsequently Mr. Wood offered a resolution referring the credentials of Measrs. Morey and Hpencef to the committee onelfctions with instructions to report which of them was entitled to the seat. lie said that he did not propose to raise the que at Ion as to who was the legal governor ol lxuliana. 1 1 waa not pertinent to this inquiry to determine that question, the sole and exe nsive question blng aa to what form of credentials the respective claimants presented Mr. Blaine declared that there was no more official ground for apeaking of John Mcknery as the governor or Ituliilana than there was for eo speaking of Mr. Wood of New York. No department of the government had ever recognized Mch-nery, and Uie House last seKslon, by a very large vote, to which many gentlemen of the Democratic aide of ths House were consenting and many of them anxious that the resolution should pa8, solemnly recognized Kellogg as the governor m IxjuUtanaand for the gentleman fiom New Yotk to make a statement that the governoranlp ot Louisiana was Uli a matter of doubt or was still in suspense was to placs the House in a wrong position. He thought that the clerk woold have been perfectly Justified in tearing up as waste paper the credentials signed byMcttnery. He trusted that the gentleman from New York did not wish to open the whole Louisiana caae on ttiis question. Mr. Wood replied that the papers In the case of all the members from Louisiana were themaelves a sufficient answer to the gentleman. For if there was no poaalble question as to who was governor of Louisiana, why was it that ail the members of that state bad deemed it necessary ts obtain the certificate of McEaerj , They

had all deemed It -Important to come here clothed with certificates from each of these so-called ' governors. He dK not propose to ' raise ' tbe . inquiry as to who waa or who was not governor of lionlalana. The question to be determined in the first place waa whether Morey presented credentials that entitled him to a seat on this floor. Mr. Wheeler said that be had trusted that the question aa to who was governor of Louialana had been net at rest, at leaat until the next general election, and regretted that for a paltry advantage it should be again raised. Not only had Kellogg been recognized aa governor of lionlalana by the president of tbe United States and by both houaes but also by the people of Louisiana, and by a MOlemn statuta paaved by ita leglalatnre at Its extra aeaalon held last April. Beaidea, thia man Kpeneerhad absolutely foreclosed himself by having made himself a contestant. Mr. Frye, of Maine fs there on reesrd since the election held in ISTi, In Louialana. a tingle official act ol MoEnery except this single one f signing those certificates. Mr. Wheeler Not one. Mr. Wood remarked tbat THR QUESTION SETTLED at tbe last sesslen had been confined entirely to the relations of the legislature, and not to the

election of the governor. Mr. Lamar said that tbe clerk of the House had made known to tbe House the existence of controversy not only with reference to the merits of the question, but with refeienoe to the prima facie right to a seat in the House. Tbe Iiouse was in poaae&alon of the fact thnt there was auch a controversy. It might be a very simple and a very intelligible riurstlon.but still it was a question of law aa to whether this certificate was aigned Dy tue proper governor or not. it nad been rrystalir.ed into a regular parliamentary law that a question involving a prima facie right, as well aa the merita of th race, should be reierred tothe committee on elections. Mr. Rialne sked Mr, Lamar whether. In the history of the House, he kuew of any caae wbere the credentials of a member aizned by a pretended governor, who had never been recognized aa governor by any department of the United Mate or by his own state, had been referred to a omro lllee. He trusted that hla friend, Lamar, with his well-known moderation, wou'd restrain his party from placing on record such an onirage, not only on state rights, of which he (Lamar) waa ancii an exam pi ax aud advocate, but on the rales of common decency as well. Mr. Lamar remarked that the question whether oneof these pretended governors waa the real governor, or not.Jwaa the very question to be reierred f o t he com m utee. Mr. Blaine Then 1 understand the Rontleman to mean tbat. thin la a formal opening of tbe whole Louie! una caxe and not merely the question 88 tO the seat ol a member. Mr. Lamar The gentleman simply underRUnd that a qumtlon which the c erlt of the House haa remitted to theHouae.whether or not it lnrolves other questions as tn the validity of the gubernatorial incumbent of LoiUiana. is a question which oiv.'ht not to be decided Informally on the mere aeatlng of a member, but ought to be formally referred to the committee and gravely and maturely decided. Mr. Blaine aaked whether It waa not A MATTER OF HISTORY that last year, in what was known as the Louis iana adjuatment, it waa perfectly understood that the vote of the House declaring Kellogg to be governor was a final settlement, and whether the venerable gentleman from Georgia, (Stephens) the very Nestor of the demcrratlc party, bad not voted with the republicans, In order, avowedly, that it might be a final settlement? Did his hon orable friend (Mr. Lamar) come here now to hear a movement to trample on the other side that agreement and to reopen the whole case? Mr. Lamar admitted mat mere nad been a compromise at the laat aession and that thst compromise did acknowledge Kellot;; as tbe acting governor of Louisiana. He hoped that the geulleman from Itew tork (Wood) would, acting on the suggestion of .Mr. Hoar, of Massachusetts. modify his resolution by omitting the preamble and merely referring the matter to the committee on e'ecttons, with instructions to report on the prima facia case. Mr. Wood modified bis resolution accordingly. The clerk of the House, with the permission of the House. made the following statement: Th controUlng fct which In my Jndgment required I me to accept the Kellogg certlucates was mat prior to the making up of the roll on the 4th of March laat, there had been a recognition by the Honse of Representatives of William Pitt Kcllozg as governor of Louisiana, and at that time he was de facto governor of the at ate. in view of his recognition oy the executive branches of the government, by all the departments of the government and by the part of the legislative oransh of th government to which the clerk is refiponslb.e. 1 felt myself absolutely Included, and therefore I inserted the names returned by Gov. Kellogs without any reference whatever to the political aspect of tbe case.. After a farther discuslou, participated in by Messrs. Holman.of Ind., Banks, Cox and Jones, of N. II., the previous question was teconded. The main question was ordered, ayes 123, nays lot. The question was then put on the resolution, and It vas rejtcted. Mr. Klaine then moved that Frank Morey, having presented credentials s:gned in due form by Gov. Kellogg, be sworn in as a member. Mr. Uandall auggeated to strike out of the motion that part recognizln Kellogg as governor. Mr. Llalnc said that he was perfectly willing todo fo, and, having so modified the motion, it was agreed to without a division, and MR. MOREY WAS BWOBJf in a) a member. The question as to the light of Mr. Uoode, of Virginia, was next taken up, and after a short discussion Uoode was sworn as a member, taking tbe modified oath. The question as to the vacancy In tbe thirty -third district of New York was then taken up, and, after statements by Messrs. Wheeler, Norton and Cox, the representative elect was sworn in, and ths technical question Involved in the caae was referred to the committee oa elections. The delegates from the territories were then called and sworn with the Ironclad oath. 'Mr. Lamar then offered a resolution dcc'arlng the following persons officers of the House: Clerk, Geo. M. Adams, of Kentucky: ser-geant-al-arma. Jno. G. Thompson, of Ohio; doorkeeper, Lafayette H. Fltzhngh, of Texas: postmaster. James M. Stewart, of Virginia, and chaplain, the I lev. J. ;L. Townsend, lnstrictof Columbia. Mr. Wheeler offered an amendment substituting the names of the present Incumbents of those officers, MoPberson, Old way, ttherwood and Butler. The amendment was rejected and the original resolution adopted.' The newly elected otlicers were then sworn in, Fiuhuh and Btewaii taking the modified oath. A message was sent to the Senate to inform that body tbat trie Houee was organize! and ready for business. A committee was appointed to Join a like committee on tbe part of the Senate to wait upon the president and Inform him that congreaa waa now in session and ready to receive any communication that he mtht te pleased to make. Messrs. Cox, Knott, of Kentucky, and Blaine were appointed as auch committee. Mr. liandall offered resolutions adopting the rules of the House in the Forty-third Congress an tbe rules of the present House, except rules 166 acd 167, and also providing for the appointment of a committee on ru'es, to consist of the speaker and four members. Kulea 164 and 1(57 are those adopted In the laat congress, renn I ring motions to suspend the rules to be seconded by a majority, aud 'orbidding the entertainment of dilatory motion a. Mr. Garfield suggested that by immemorial usage the rules of the preceding lloases became the rulea of this House without any special motion to that effect. Mr. Randall replied that immemorial usage might do for tbe repuollsan side of the House but not . for the democratic side, which required a strict construction of the rules. Mr. Garfield, contemptuously-Oh yes? (Laughter). The resolutions were adopted, and then it was ordered that ' the usual drawing for seats should take place at 1 o'clock to-morrow. The Honse then adjourn rd. Many members, conspicuous araocg them Mr. Blaine, stepped up to the speaker's chasr and took this opportunity of felicitating bim on his election and on the manner in which he had discharged his drat day's duties. Among the new model hats for ladies which are described in the French fashion journals are the following: One (for a young girl) of white felt with raised brims, the lower part ornamented with blue bows and two small blue leathers, and the upper part with bows oi white ribbon, a blue bird and a white feather; one of black velvet, with a diadem of white blond and cream-white daisies, trimmed with creamwhite damasked scarf and a white feather; one of black !olt (a "chapeau tromblon" trimmed with a grayish blue damasked scarf, together with a few feathers ot the

same tint, and large blue wlrtgj a velvet bat of a delicate bine shadewith a wellraised front, ornamented with blue thistles and a large bine ft at her f and one of apricot-shaded velvet, the front of which is very couch raised, and which la Ornamente with bows to match the hat, red geranium flowers, a black wing, and a small green bird. Of course these bats are all intended for young women. Mr. John II. Sullivan informs na that the board of director of the Louisville narroweange railroad Lave instructed him to prepare an amendment to the charter of the company terminating the road at Milton Ky., a point opposite thia city. We understand from Mr. S. tbat this is done with a Tiew of ultimately crossing the rirer at this city either by means at a bridge or transfer boats, and continuing the road up tbe river on the Indiana aide. It la generally undeiKtood by railroad men who have been over the ground, that the road from this point to Cincinnati can be made much cheaper on thia side of the river than tbe other. If tbls can be accomplished, we can see bow it will prove a benefit to Madison. Not so much from tbe fact that tbe road is to cross here, but in tbe almost absolute certainty that it would lead to the building of other narrow-gauge roada front this city in different directions out into the richest portion of this and the ad joining counties. Already we bear the subject discussed of a nnrrow-gaage road from this city to the coal fields of Clay county, passing through Hanover, Kent, Woostertown, Frankfort, and ibe richest portions of Jackson county. It is tald that these roada can te built at a very low rate when compared with the broad gauge roajj. A number ot these roads leading into the city would work an immense advantage to us in the way of bringing tbe farmers' produce to this market, eltner tor sale or shipment elsewhere, and furnishing cheap transportation for the tlmter that grows in abundance all around us, but too far off to to available at tbe heavy coftt ol wagon transportation.

THE MAGNETIC SYSTEM. Drs. Darrin it Merrill's practice la mostly in diseases regarded as Incurable. Their treatment la In tome ret recta peculiar to themselves, and although there have beea men In all age who have had the same magnetic power over diseases, both of the body and mind, yet few have seemed to poe5s It to such an extent tat nearly all diseases. ' Recognising the most commendable Idea and principles of the prevailing metbeds of practice, and often making use of them, they do not so rauch come In conflict with other modes aa they asatst and aurpasa them. Ho powerful ts tbls magnetic Influence that persona who have many years suffered have been restored to hea!th in an almost incredible abort apace et time. It will not reStore a lost member Of the body, nor perform other impossibilities: bat it will in a majority

of cases give relief and often cure where other remedies have failed. Are medicines needed? Joined with magnetism they will accomplish Creater and quicker results tban can be obtained from drugs alone.
