dent has supporter:? enough in the Senate to execute his wishes when he chooses to. express them, and say the deadlock must be broken. It is evident that there has been considerable bluster in the talk of making war against the Administration be-6 cause of Robertson's nomination. Mr, Conkling much prefers compromise to war, aud he and all his friends are using all their energies and influence to obtain some little concession from the President, so that a retreat may be sounded and called a compromise. A thorough canvass of the Senate by the reporter of the Western Associated Press shows that Conkling is doomed to deteat, and he knows it only two Democratic Senators even talk of voting with him. Messrs. Maxey, Voovbees and Garland who have been published as his supporters, deny aud denounce the report as false. On the Republican side, Conkling, should he press his opposition to Robertson to a vote, would not get exceeding a dozen Senators. Conkling was elected to go to Wisconsin with Carpenter's remains, knowing that whatever might occur ii the Senate, his fight could not open in his absence. He is seeking every means to delay the opening of the battle in the hope that some arrangement wil be made by which he can retreat without dishonor. t- Commodore Meade, of the United States Steamer Vandalia, in a letter to the Navy Department, dated March SO, says: "Havana is healthy, but lawlessness prevails and goeft unrestrained.

; ; mASHWM&TQm ' VVasjungton, April 7. The statement contained in numerous dispatches from here that -the President may decide to revive the ancient custom and go in person tp the Senate to break the deadlock, is all bosh. There ia no necessity for the President to resort to any extreme or even ancient measures to break the deadlock. He is embarrassed .by the situation, and would like to have .his
tempt be ma.de in executive session to select certaii men for confirmation the Democrats would probably resist and insist on takiug up the nominations in proper order. The Republicans would be glad to confirm the most important nominations if they could do that and then resume their fight, but if they go into executive session one time they know it leaves the Democrats with an advautage. Judge Tourgee, author of "A FooPa Errand, " seems to control the Federal patronage in North Carolina. He got the President to withdraw ex-Governr or Holden nomination for postmaster at Raleigh and send in the name of Nieoil, an ex' dm federate friend of Tourgee's. North Carolina Republicans here are kicking about Tourgee, who they say is a citizen of New York, interfering in North Carolina State matters. It is reported that Tourgee has advised the President to turn out all of the old Grant Federal appointments in North Carolina and put in new ones, .with a view of preventing any attempt to organize a Grant or Conkling movement for 1S84. Emery A. Storrs and J. B.

Notwithstanding the statement that the President desires the dead -lock in the Senate broken and action had on his- nomination, tit can be said on the authority of prominent Republican Senators who have talked with - the President, that he is entirely in synv paty with the course pursued by the Republican Senators, and has :. no'.-intention of trying to produce a changcj of programme. He says that he believes the success of the liberal movement in the South depends upon the Republicans standing' by Mahone it.

THE STATE LEGISLATURE.
The House has indefinitely postponed tho bill repealing the act authorizing couniie.and townships to aid in the construction of railroads. The Senate, by a decided vote, has laid the Beaver Lake land bill upon the table. , The House, on Wednesday, rejected on its passage a bill allowing persons to selefjt tho paper in which Sheriff's fales shall bo printed. The Senate Judiciary Committee, on Wednesday, reported favorably on the prohibition law amendment to the constitution. The same comm It tee has also reported in favor of a constitutional amen dir. en t limiting regular sessions of the General Assembly to one hundred days, and special sessions to thirty days. The Senate, on Wednesday, amended Mr, Gibson's House bill by striking out the provision relating to the jurisdiction of city Felice Judges, and adding a provision that pre cepts for street improvements shall cover property brick 120 feet. , This amendment heads oil a recent dodge by which owners conveyed one inch of the frontage on streets being improved, and left nothing; to enforce payment from. The amendments were concurred in by the House. A Senate amendment to the genera appropriation bill, concurred in by the House, gives the Deputy Attorney General $1,000 a year. The House, on Wednesday, passed a bill authorizing railway and other employes io organize mutual benefit and aid associations, aud to legalize existing associations o? that character. The committee's fee and salary bill has been introduced in the House. The coal oil inspection bill, as it goes to the Governor, provides for the appointment of an inspector in each
I Congressional district except the one iu
j which the slate inspector resides, in
which district he rna3 it he so elects, perform the duties ot Inspector himself. A bill was ordered to engrossment in the House, on Wednesday, which requires a $250 license fee Jrcm saloon keepers. It is believed by many to be the best bill on the subject that has been presented to this Assembly. Another hill lias reached the same stage in the House which provides that all persons who drink in saloons shall firs:, procure a license for which they shall pay So per annum. The House parsed a bill on Wednesday giving cities tho benefit of the ncv tax law. iu the assessment of banks, etc. Also the bil: authorizing the employment of Commissioners to aid the Supreme Court in uuioading its docket. It is probable that an amendment to the constitution will be proposed by this Assembly authorizing an increase of the number of Supreme Judges. The appellate court plan ..of relief to the Supreme Court didn't pan out. The House bill to au thorize aliens to hold land in this Si ate. failed to pass the Senate on Thursday, lacking two of a constitutional majority. The House bill (codification) concerning husband and wife, passed the Senate with amendments. The House bill amending the railroad whistling act of 167!) passed the Senate without amendment. A test vote in the Senate on Thursday, shows that the House joint resolution proposing the prohibitory liquor lav7 amendment to the constitution will be passed. Tho House on Thursday passed a bill authorizing township trustees to levy a tax for tho repair and purchase of cemeteries; also the Cabbage "owl bill" for the protection of poultry; also a Revision Commission lull concerning witness fees; also a He vision Commission Senate bill concerning the
redemption of lands from sales on exo-'
cutious and decrees. This bill reduces the rate of interest in such oases from ten to eight per cent. . The House, on Thursday, also passed a joint, resolution proposing an amendment to the con
stitution 'giving women the eight to
vote on. an equality -with men. Heveral Democratic members voted for the resolution, and the vote upon it stood, yeas, 62; nays, 24 The world "do" move. Both the Senate and House held sessions Thursday evening for the consideration of code bills. The House is badly discouraged by the treatment it is receiving from the Senate. The latter has passed only a bout a dozen House bills, while the House has passe 1 between forty and fifty Senate bills The House now has 125 bills on the files of the Senate, In the present temper of the House, Senate bills won't .pass worth a cent until the Senate passes some House bills.

The force of the electricity has to bo nicely graded, as a too powerful shock would numb or kill a man , The other method is by condensing a number of intermittent sparks on the flesh.

A distinguished surgeon of whom questions were asked concerning tho machine, said: "The best way to explain it is to givo you actual experience; then you will know exactly how it feels. Here is a Faracic induction coil. I pull out this tube a little way. Now let mo place this electrode in your hand. There.'! "Oh. 171 exclaimed the inquirer, as a tingling, thrilling sersation ran through every finger, and his hand closed in an involuntary' grasp.... "Does it hurt?" asked the doctor. "A little." "Well, we'll try it again. Now, you see, I pull this tube further out. I again tueh it to your hand and V. "Whoop!" shouted the victim, "take it away!" The. feeling was as if the hand was crushed in a vice. Every nerve ached and tre m bled wi t h pain. "That hurt, did it? Why, that's nothing. Here's something of a very different sore." He fattened to one wire a small wet spongOj and to the other wire something like a naint brush, with the brush part made of line wire. He put the sponge in the visitor's hand, and touched the back of the hand with the wire brush. The pain was. unbearable. The surface of the,sliin was scorched, and the muscles of the. hand were contracted in the most violent manner, "That hi called the electric scourge," said the doctor. "If it were dark you could see unarka Sly from each wire. Imagine the effect if the electricity were ten times more powerful." "Could any man bear that torture?" "I think not. Any man would confess under it, but it is a question what confidence could be placed in such a confession. A man would confess anything to escape the agony, " "What could you compare the pain to?" "It would bo the same as burning alive." "Would it injure the man?" "No, not unless the pain drove him insane. It the battery was too powerful it would kill at once. Applied to some parts of the body the scourge hurts more thau other parts."
Our Interest in Ireland. .Loga.asport Journal. The people of this country are more deeply concerned hi the speedy and equitable adjuatmeut of the difficulties of Ireland than many suppose. The flagrant abuses of the Iiisu land systems yearly impose a heavy load of indirect taxation on us, which, we can not avoid so long as they continue. For over a half century the burden of receiving and caring for millions of paupers, made so by English legislation, has been chiefly borne by tho United States, "in the life ot one
generation nearly three millions of the j
victims of the Irish land sysi.c n have been disembarked at o u r pi rts . ' ' Not always have these emigran ts come voluntarily. The only plausibly remedy which English economists have been able to suggest for Irish misery is emigration. This has received .'official reeoninifsndatiou and government aid. According to the avowals of many landlords they would willingly sweep the island' of its population and convert it into a pasture. The Irfoh peasants, having been mercilessly impoverished, are driven here, not with money and well trained skill in tb? mechanical arts, but poor, .and .adapted to perform only the moat menial wotlc.

McPheruon's Grave. New Yrok Tribune. ... We left Atlanta by a broad, muddy, clay road, went northwestward almost to the si te of Sherman's headquarters during the siege, and then turned into a road eastward lead ing o vei a poor! y wooded ridge to a thicket of small oak and sparse nine, about three miles from Atlanta.: By this latter road McPherson galloped to his command and to hisjdeatb. The enemy, about 80,000 strong, had turned his right, aiad were driving his men, a parcel of whom
were standing under a bunch of piues, up a woods road and on a knoll. They had shot down the veteran confederate General Walker, a great loss ; to the enemy, but the powerful gray line of bat tie a wept a h ea d en velopi n g: them , and while MoPherson was fresh from his gallop in their midst the deadly ball came straight to the great young spirit. The t ide of the battle swept on, and, returning again before the union onset and shout of vengeance, h is corpse was recovered by his soldiery, yet al most warm. The wood 3 path up which he rode is marked ova signboard, "MoPherson's .Lane." From tho point of entering it Atlanta is visible on another hlh with a cluster of spires. . We rode up the rooty and white clay lane to the spot, nearly a mile back, where at a partial clearing or rather, Eilenee hi the woods, thre is a cross lane, aud at the intersection rise some dozen of half-grown pines, some to the height of sixty feet, talking together like the dead man's soul, hovering there among his spirit comrades. Here fell MoPherson, the Hoche of the great war; ann Ohio boy, raised at Clyde, near the shores of Lake Erie, the son, I think of a country blacksmith. , His memory and moctesty arc respected by frieud and foe Hherman said the day he died : "I thougnt MoPherson would have finished up the war af te r G ra n t and I we re k Hied or dismissed..

New York Sun, According to a dispatch from Geneva, Kussakolx and JalibofF, the killers of the Czar, have been mercilessly put to torture in the presence of G-?u-eral Loris Melikoif. Ptussakofl was eleciricized by powerful batteries, and forced by the intolerable agony he suffered to answer, questions put to him. Park Benjamin, the scientific expert, said yesterday: "The idea, of torturing criminals by. electricity is not original with the Russians, It is a Bvitisliinvention, and was first suggested about five years ago, by an lOuKlish mechanical journal, in commenting upon the execution of criminals by electric shock instead of hanging. The English writer wanted to do away with thecat-oMiine-taih, which
is administered in England to garroters and other ci iminals ol certain chesses, aud use the electric ba ttery as he so m what ex Dressed it, so as to produce indesciriable torture (unaccompanied by wounds or even bruises), thrilling through every fibre of such miscreants There was an. American . inventor who had a design for indicting this species of punishment. Ho fitted bracelets of iron on the arms and thighs of the criminal, and placed In then wet sponges When connected with a current of electricity the shock by this system passes through the legs ami shoulders, and avoids the vitaljparis of the body." The torture inflicted by electricity ia of two kinds by contraction ot the muscles at rapidly recurring intervals and by burning with sparks. The tortures of old days, when not done by fire or compression, were the strain lug and tearing asunder of the muscles: Of this kind were the rack, Se&ven isw's daughter, and thu cages of TjouIb XTV.j in which a mp n c;nild not stand up or lie down. The electric shock exactly reverses theso conditions. It products an enormously rapid contractiou. in the body ol? the muscles a.t

You would have been very fortunate, my children, if you had known , my Uncle Bayle, because he alone knew more stories than you have ever read. He was an advocate, and lived at Foix, and almost every Saturday we would see him coming on his horse, and our joyous cries hailed him at a distance. The servant, my old Jeannette, came immediately to salute our Uncle Bayle, who carefully informed himself as to supper- Then, after haying added or changed something in the -bill of fare, he seated himself iu a large chair of carved wood, which he dragged up to the fire, and without delay we all began to. cry, "A sforyj a story t" On this evening the cry was less boisterous, because we had formed a little
eonspiracy, ana no one aarea to speas: first. Finally my pretty cous'n Dorothee, the most talkative little girl of the house, and now the grave superior or a convent of the sisters of charity, ventured to cry : UA ghost story!" and we replied altogether: Yesa ghost storytl1 ,: ' . We gathered around him closer- than usual; the lamp hung by a chain at tached to the mantle-piece, ami there our undo told his sory: : y One autumn evening, it must have been 40 years ago, because I was scarcely 20 years old at the time, I was returning from Toulouse. I had made a good iouruey, because I had already
Eassed Auterive, where some friends ad urged me to pass, tne nigh tv but I was very anxious to reach Swurdum, .which,, you know, is nine miles further, and I resumed my. journey. I had arrived almost in trout of the Bolbonne menastery, beyond the beautiful woods of Lecourien, where.. Father Vaniul com posed his 1 Preadiura Rustfcuni?1 when a sudden and irightful storm, dke those that come down; from our mountains, unexpectedly broke forth. In less than no time the night became black ... and traveling impossible. ; I would certainly have asked shelter at the monastery but the moment I took the resolution my horse frightened at the flashes. of lightening . ana ' noise of thundsr, darted into a by-path and wrrled ma with him in suite of ail my efforts to the contrary. Notwithstanding his rapidity I soon recognized .that he had taken the road to St. G belle, and that he was leading me there all richt. In tha meantime my horse galloped on until he stopped of his own accord as he had started, and I perr eeived that I was at the door of au inn. I entered. The company was numerous, a. mixed crowd of Spanish" merchants and sportsraeu of the vicinity; overtaken like myself, by. the atomy. One had been thrown from his horse; another had heefi detained an ; hour in getting himsel t and" cart out ;of the mud. Finally . soma one exclaimed: 'It'sau infernal night, just . the time for a meeting of witches." This remark which was very simple; gave place to a single observation .maae in a tone still more singular:' ' t 'Sorcerers and ghosts prefer for their meeting a beautiml moonlightnight to a night ao unpUasant as this." We all gazed at the man who' had said this, and saw that he was a. Spanish merchant. None of us had .thought of replying to this: obser vation, made in a grave, severe voice, wneu my neighbor, a youug man with a frank and open manners burst out Isaigbiag as he said : "It appears that this gentleman knows the habits of ghosts, and that they have told him that they do not like to get wet or dirty." ; :, He had uot finished his sentence when the Spaniard threw on him a terrible look as he said : ' "Young man. do not speak so ilightly of things you know nothing about." 'Do you think vou can make me believe there are gliosis?" replied my neighbor, disdainfully. Perhaps," replied the' Spanisrd cil you had the courage to look at them." The young man jumped lip, red with anger, but calmed himself and' sat down again, quietly saying i : "You would have paid decily for that remark where it not that of a fool." ...... "? "That of a fool! "cried the Spaniard, jumping up in his turn. Well. .then added he. 'slapping his fist on the table,
anu turowiug .oown . a .mg' ipainr purse, "here are 30 quadruples (about 216,) which I offer to lose, if within an hour, I do not make you see-r-you Who sire so positivethe face of one ot yourfneuds that you Willi name, let him be dead for ten years; and if,; after having recognized him, you dare to per salt his month to attach a. kiss to yours.1' The Spaniard had an air so terrible in fraying these words that we all started. Ky neighbor alone pi eaerved his laughing, mocking manner, and replied 14 You will do this; you?"
"Yes.' I replied the Spaniard, "and I will lope SO quadruples if I do not do it, on condition that you willf'ioso aa equal amount if t keep my promise,
and you acknowledge if7: The young man was silen t a momeat; then he said gayly : "Thirty quadruples! My worthy j-oroerer, that is more than a: atudeift Of Toulouse ever possessed ; but If ypvt will kfeep your word for the five quadruples which aref here I am yo,.ur man." . ... J r The Spaniard quietly took the purse again, and aid. scorn (uUy: 1 "Ah. you back out my littl0: gentleman??. . . . "' " . ... VI back .out !" cried the young -man.
