The resolution as amended was agreed to. The senate proceeded to the considera tion of the hills on calendar under the five minute rule. On reaching the Fitz John i’orter bill, it was agreed that it he made a special order for next Thursday. Piatt’s resolution providing tor open ex- ecutive sessions was objected to and went over, Vance's bill to repeal the civil service law was, on motion of Hawley, indefinite ly postponed—33 to 6.

The Scotman puts the question fairly and ' closely. It says any general professions l by the ministerialists of a desire for sclf- : government in Ireland will save them. One question will test the value or mean ing or those professions. Let the candidate I be asked if he would, in the new parlia ment, support Gladstone’s bill if reintro duced with alterations explained at the foreign office meeting. If he will, he is for disunion and ought to lie rejected. No play upon words will help him out of this position. Now, mark the coining words. Safe self- government for Ireland is the one thing , most desirable in Gladstone’s bill. But I there is another most undesirable feature, i I now make the Scotsman and all agreeing with it a very handsome offer. I am sure when they mention safe self-government j they don’t mean by “safe’’to emasculate the substantiation. They mean that with reasonable precautions the Irish ought to ltid>.

It bottled up the passions of Vermont repub licans and made their state convention a t une and spiritless affair, instead of a red- hot bear garden, which it would have been if no restraint had been imposed. Bitter as Mr Blaine’s feelings doubtless are toward the Vermont senator, there is no doubt that he strongly urged abandonment of opposition to him, at least for the prom!.

There was a I sensation and a calm. Each one looked at j the other with an expression suggestive of j interrogation. At last one of the party legislature that chooses Mr. Edmunds’ suc cessor. so that the re-election of Mr. Ed munds can now hardly be considered as imperilled. The Edmunds men, there fore, fail to see how a blow can now be successfully aimed at their leader from any quarter. Furthermore, they feel quilt* safe in making liberal promises of support of Mr. Blaine in 1888, because not one of them believes that the Maine statesman's chances of renomination are worth a picayune. So everybody is happy to-night, and republican politics in Ver mont are apparently as placid as a summ r evening millpond. The Blaine men have done a great deal of missionary work among the delegates to-day, and some even talked as if they expected to secure a Blaine delegation to th** national conven tion in 1SH8 as the result of to-day’s com promise. The convention nominated tlie Hon. J. E. < Minbec for governor without much op- p >sition. Ih r< reived 340 votes on the first ballot to 195 for J. K. Hatchelder, and about 70 scattering. The nomination of Mr. Ormbee is without general satisfaction, in view of tfie understanding arrived at among the delegates before the conven tion met. He will receive the support of his party, hut his candidacy will awake no enthusiasm. Gov. Smith’s carefully plan ned still hunt against Edmunds has of the question. Nobody questions these conditions. They are admitted to be just and rational. The principle has been reiterated over and again. It is now idle to say that the coun try will be asked to vote on the details of the bill. The bill is dead with parliament. [Cheers.1 The principle of the bill sur vives.
