the Interview of a little interest:
Correspondent—Do you mean to
Hay that there was an understanding
between Senator Colliding and the
friends of Mr. Tilden with the ob|ect
of defeating Mr. Hayes?
Mai. llurkc (smiling)—Well, I am
surqrised to hear a newspaper man
ask that question. I supposed that
they all knew that it lias been kept
wonderfully quiet, to lie sure, hut I
thought every newspaper limn in
Washington last winter knew about
it. I know positively that Senator
Conkling had a speech all prepared
in favor of throwing out tile vote of
Louisiana, in which event lie was to
have been elected President of (lie
Senate, and

|lending tlie new election, would
huve taken place a year afterward.
Mr. Tltden’s friends were satisfied
with this arrangement, because they
thought that, with Ids wounds fresh
bleeding, he would have no trouble
in securing the Democratic nomina
tion; and Senator Conkling doubtless
thought that with the control of tlie
nutronage, he would easily shelve
Mr. Haves and become the ‘Republi
can candidate. The cause which pre
vented an attempt at carrying this
programme out was the distrust fell
by Sir. Conkling’s adherents on tlie
Republican side -tlie carpct-bug Sen
ators from the Southern States. They
were all ready enough to slaughter
Hayes, because they had become
alarmed at some of ids utterances and
at Grant’s declarations. Rut it was
feared that, instead of supporting
Conkling, they might .vote for Mor
ton, as they probably would have
done."
Correspondent "Major, tlie state
ment has frequently been made that
there was, nbout that time, an agree
ment muiie in writing between tlie
President, represented by Stanley
Matthews, Charles Foster and others,
and leading Southern men, prominent
among whom have been named Gen.
Gordon, Mr. Lamar, Mr. F.llis, and
Mr. Gibson, of which you were the
custodian. May 1 ask whether you
huve now, or have ever had, such a
document in your possession ?”
Major llurkc (after considerable
hesitation)—"You may say that no
true statement on that subject lias
ever been published; that 1 have no
agreement signed by Stanley Mat
thews, Charles Foster, or anybody
else for Mr. Hayes, and never hud.
As to themethodsby which Southern
Congressmen ami myself were con
vinced that Mr. Hayes would be al
lowed by his party to carry out
Grant’s declarations about witlulraw-
ing troops from interfering with tlie
local aflairs of our State, l do not care
to spciik at present. Stanley Mat
thews and Charles Foster have been
unjustly assailed, as pretty much all
of their connection with the Electoral
business lias been published.”

THE DARDANELLES.
Just now they are important factors
In KurofieBii politics. Regarding
these, Rnglnnd seems to base her
claims respecting tlie violation of
Hritish interests. The strait was
anciently known as tlie Hellesjxint.
It is about forty miles in length and
from three-fourths of a mile to two
miles in width. Xerxes crossed tlie
channel on a double bridge of bouts
in 470 B. C., and Alexander in 334
II. C. Gulliopoll on tlie )>eninsiilu
which forms the western Imundury
bus a population of about 35,000. A
strong force at tills place, could close
tlie strlt from the Mediterranean us
completely as tlie Confederate butte
ries did the Mississippi river at Vicks
burg.
Tlie Dardanelles have a modern as
well as ancient history. It takes Its
present name from tlie four forts
built at its entrance in tlie seven
teenth century—two by Mahomet II.
and two by Mahomet IX. They
were designed to prevent thoapproueli
of ships to Constantinople, but they
have liccn repeatedly passed. Guns
cannot now delay ships under a de
termined commander, so that the
closing of tlie strait will he merely a
diplomatic curiosity. This formal
pretense has been recognized by trea
ties in 1809, in 1841, in 1866and in
1871. In 1871 the Conference of Lon
don, called in consequence of Russia’s
repudiation in 1870of certain clauses
of the I’arls treaty, decreed the con
tinuation of the restrictions ns dc
ulared by the Treaty of Paris, but
conceded the Multan's authority to
penult tlie passage of the sldps of
friendly Powers in time of peace.
There lias been a constant struggle
for Russia to get the upper hand. In
1833, Turkey in return for u favor by
Russia in a secret treaty closed til
entrance of the Dardanelles to all for
eign vessels of war. They could not
enter but Russia would go out. Tills
gave the Czar two much power. At
any time lie could attack Constanti
nople from the Rluck Sea. The Pow
ers became alarmed, and In 1841
speolal convention of them closed the
strait to the war vessels of all nation
and thus checkmated Russia by shut
ting up her fleet in the Black Ben.
At the treaty of Paris in 185(1, con
sequent upon the conclusion of the
Crimean war, the rule of the exclu
sion of foreign naval vessels from the
Dardanelles was maintained, and il
was further prohibited in cither
Russia or Turkey to huve arsenals or
keep up a heavy navy in the Black
Bea. This destroyed the Russian
naval power in (lie Black and Med
iterranean sens. Russia bided her
chance. When tlie Franco-German
war commenced she declared she no
longer considered tlie treaty of Paris
binding, and Russia began to rc-liuild
her arsenals and navy in tlie Black
Bea, but could not get her navy into
the Mediterranean, Now she asserts
her power and demands from tlie
Porte the free passage of her ships of
war through both the Bosphorus and
tlie Dardanelles. Rnglnnd demands
lo have a word in this matter and
declares it a matter of European de
cision. Austria has claims against
Russia witli similar demands in
another quarter, and with such
strength arrayed against him after
sustaining terrible losses, and with a
bankrupt treasury, tlie Muscovite
must cease his haughty wayandyield
to the Inevitable. Turkey is fairly
buried lint Europe will not see Russia
take possession. Enlightened nations
will say to tlie barbarous, semi-civil
ized Russ, thus far.shall thougoand

Excluding tlie value of Trinity’s

Quakers, neither being burdened by
debt, the amount of (lie debt ill round
numbers about $8,000,000, is about 30
tier cent, of tlie value of the church
property in tlie city. This includes
a large number of mortgages held by
savings banks, insurance conqianies,
and individuals. A targe number of
tlie churches ulso have lloutiiig debts,
and others have issued homls, for
building or other purposes, upon

LAIARl TRIBUTE TO THE NOl’TH.
The following is the eloquent con
clusion of Senator Lamur’s recent
speech. Although we cannot endorse
Ids views us to silver, we shall not
quurre! with him. He is an honor to
the Senate, to Mississippi and tlie
South:
Sir, go nil the way back in this
country and where have you found
tlie steady advocates of free - trade, the
opponent's of extravagant taxation,
the opponents of moneyed monopo
lies, tlie opponents of those who are
not capitalists, hut who by Congres
sional plunder seek to make them
selves capitalists in tlie passage of acts
for the enrichment of great nionopo-
lies; who but the Democratic repre
sentatives of every class in this coun
try, the farmer ortho West, tlie mer
chants of the North, and the planters
of the South? Why, sir, wore not
the planters of the South at t|ie time
they were denounced as Idohtcd slave
holders, as an eflfete aristocracy, al
ways considered as the eye of Democ
racy of the North? They stood by
them, and with Jetl’erson and Madi
son, Jackson and Polk. They always
kept in the interests of lubor the pow-
crof capital from interlacing itself wilh
(lowers of government, and they did
draw the very distinction in their ln-
Huenceund their power in tliisGov-
.ernment. I can never forget tlie clos
ing hours of that (lower, for 1 was
hero and saw it pass from tlie hands
of Southern Democratic statesmen
into those who now wield the desti
nies of tills country. I remember
here on tills Hour the then distin
guished Senator from New York (Mr.
Seward), wild lias since become more
conspicuous in the eventful times
that have occurred, declare that power
had departed from the South; that the
oeptre was now taken from her linnd,
and that thenceforth the great North,
by reason of its superiority in numer
ical nowor and roll of sovereign Stutes
would grasp this power as her own
prerogative and become responsible
for the administration of the whole
Government. I am aware that I lis
tened to him with impatience and
perhaps with prejudice, and thought
Ids spirit wus too much that of exul
tation, not realizing tlie magnitude
of the greut undertaking which was
about to develop upon him unil iiis
associates. It struck me that he did
not have tlie sadness and solemnity
which touch the heart of every great
man when confronted with the great
events and great responsibilities in
volving the Interests of untold mil
lions. I shall never forget the answer
that was made to him by a Southern
Senator who sat near where my friend
from I ndianat Mr. McDonald) now sits.
He wusBurroundcd by aclrcle of South
ern Democratic statesmen, which, in
ability und purity, will never be sur
passed in the history of tills country,
whatever may be its glory—which
glory, J trust, will lie always great
among the nationsofthccarth. There
was James M. Mason, whose square
and massive simplicity of character
and purity stand monumental-in our
annals. Thera was his accomplished
colleague, Robert M. T. Hunter,
whose clear and broad statesmanship
found lit expression in u scholarly
eloquence Hint drew into the same
admiring circle Ills friends and oppo
nents in the same admiring friend
ship. And then there was Mr. Slidell,
shrewd and wise and prudent, and by
his side sat J. 1’. Benjamin, whose
astuteness and skill, eloquence and
learning, luivu since won him fume
and fortune upon tiiat high Olympic
Held of mental conllict, the great
courts of Westminster. There was
Robert Toombs, who never spoke
without striking at the heart ofu big
thought and kindling tlie ideas of all
who listened to him. There was Al
bert G. Brown, from my own State,
who never hud a sympathy outside of
the wants and feelings of his own
people: who yet was never overawed
by their prejudices or swerved from
ills course by their passions. There
wus another, Mr. President—shall 1
not be permitted to mention his
name in tills free American Senate,
which has been so free to discuss
and condemn his errors? —one who
has been the vivarious sullerer for liis
people; who lias been in prison cell
the solitude of whose piuiisliment
should lift him above the jibe and
jeer of popular passion, whose words
will ever remain as the sail and grand
memoranda, not of triumph, not of
defiance, hut of earnest purpose, the
sincere motive of tlie great struggle
for representative liberty and consti
tutional government. Among these
und surrounded by them this Senator
spoke to his associates In terms which
I have never read from that day to
this, but which are stereotyped upon
my memory, and which if the Senate
will permit me I will repeat: "Sir
said lie, addressing his Northern i
soeiates. "wluit the Senator says is
true. The power has passed from
our hands into your hands, but do
not forget—it cannot be forgotten ;
it is written upon the brightest (luge
of history— thut wo, the slaveholders
of the South, took your country in
her infancy, and, after ruling her for
sixty of the seventy years of her exist
ence, we returned her to you
without a snot upon her honor;
matchless in her splendor: incompar
able in her power, the pride and ad
miration of the world. Time will
show what you will do with her; but
no time can dim our glory or dimin
ish your responsibility.^ Sir, it is
not my purpose to say wluit lias been
done with it; the arraignment of tlie
Senator from Ininnn(Mr. Voorheesl
is still before the country. There is
testimony, however, by a witness
who may be regarded ns'more impar
tial than he; a judge sterner than he.
I will read what liesays. [Mr. Lamar
here quoted from the remarks of Sir.
Hoar, one of the managers on tlie
part of the House of Representatives
in tlie Belknap impeachment trial, in
regard to ollleinl corruption In the
Federal Government, New Yorkl’ity
and various States ; the expulsion of
members of the House of Representa
tives for selling cadetships, etc., and
resuming his argument, said:] Mr.
President, we, tlie successors of these
men, are here to-day. By a (Hiliey
which is a noteworthy fact in the
nineteenth century we have come to
mingle with tlie representatives from
tlie States of this Union in a common
council for tlie good of this country.
We come no longer as representa
tives of tlie capital interests of tlie
South. We come not us allies of tlie
laboring men of tlie North, but as
lalsirers ourselves—every one of us
and all our constituents taught the
stern lesson of the necessity of ear
ing our subsistence by tlie sweat of
our face. But, sir, we come with our
convictions unchanged as to tlie in'- 1
cessity of tlie laboring class being j
protected in all their rights and all j
their interests, for when they sink,
tile social fabric of society must sink
and erumble witli them. But we !
upon this great question, but of one
thing the world may be assured, that
no Southern Senator, representing
the Southern people, will give a vote
upon the one side or the other ..which
is not designed to protect tlie laboring
elusses or this country nlike with its
eupitul, or on tlie other that will not
preserve untarnished the sacred honor
of America. (Applause in the gal
leries.)
Trending on Hellenic tiround.
The Cincinnati Enquirer says of
the closing portion of Lamar’s speech :
Tlie third part of his speech was an
exceedingly well executed eulogy of
tlie Southerner* who were in tlie
Senate when tlie South seceded and
went out. This part of ids speech at
tracted much attention. It seemed
like a resurrection of tlie past to hear
tlie names of Mason and Slidell, of
Boli Toombs, of Hunter, Benjamin
ami tlie rest, wild were once n power
in tlie land, but whose very names
huve liecn under a ban for more than
a decade, alluded to witli pride, their
memories mnde green and their vir
tues and abilities extAiled, in tlie very
chamber from which they went out.
When tlie Mississippi orator went
futrher, and ventured to quote from
Jefferson Davis himself to sustain his
assertion that tlie Democratic party
hud jealousy guarded and safely kept
tlie public credit and the national
honor for over sixty years, and fol
lowed that witli a quotation from
Hoar’s speech on tlie Belknap trial to
show how that faitli had been
maintained by tlie Republican party
since, it seemed that lie was walk
ing dangerously near a volcano,
and more than one face be
trayed tlie fear of an explosion.
Blaine sat almost within reach of
Lamar’s swinging arms. He sat bent
forward, like a tiger ready to spring,
and watched every word ns it passed
from tlie speaker's lips. Conkling
donned an extra sneer, turned his
hack on tlie speaker, and, while lie
was quoting Davis, said to a Senator
in front, in a voice audible ill the gal
leries, and in a tone evidently intend
ed to tie insulting: “Now we are get
ting Jeff Davis.” It was a ticklish
piece of strategy, clearly calculated for
the latitude of Mississippi, and evi
dently meant to counteract tlie mon
etary portion of tills speech, so utterly
at variance with tlie will of ids State
as expressed through its Legislature.
But Lamar executed it so clearly,
carefully uvoidingeven a condonation
of their secession sentiments and
stopping just short of mentioning
Davis by name, that tlie proprieties
were not violated, and no exceptions
were taken to his remarks except
what Blaine and Conkling showed
uiion their faces. Quickly repressed
applause greeted tlie Senator us lie sut
down.
Of this portion of his speech, the
Chicago Times says:
He finally drifted on to a consider
ation of tlie sponsors of tlie govern
ment, and tlie care they took of tlie
nation’s credit. Here lie drew a very
happy picture about tlie time of 1800,
placing around him tlie noted South
ern Senators of old, and at tlie snme
time vividly portraying the character
of each. He quoted from Seward,
then a Senator, when lie said in the
Senate that tlie sejitre of (lower had
passed from tlie South to tlie North,
and they would wield it for the whole
country from that time forward.
Then lie said that there was another
statesman present upon that occasion
whoso name lie hoped lie could men
tion in this free Semite. He did not,
however, name him, but described
liini'so that ttiere was little doubt
that it wus no less a person
than Jefferson Davis. The latter’s
response to Seward lie said lie
well remembered. He trod here upon
very delicate ground; as Blaine sat di
rectly in front of him watching ....
opportunity to pick him up on a sec
tional question. Lnmur wus very
adroit, as lie said nothing himself lint
read three extracts from speeches that
conveyed liiH idea. One was from
Seward, where he prophesied that
(lie sceptre of power wusabout to pass
away from the South. Then Lamar
read a reply from a Southern Senator
who proudly said that if tlie power of
tlie South was to puss away it was
their boast to say that they had con
trolled the country since its infancy,
und they could turn it over to their
successors witli its honor und credit
unimpaired, with no stain ot corrup
tion upon it. Then Lumnr read Sen
ator Hoar’s blistering review of tlie
Republican administration in ids
speech ill the Belknap case, as if to
say "this is what tlie power of tlie
North lias done,” and inferential!}’
with it lias come all this catalogue of
financial heresies.
The nomination of Hilliard for
Minister of Brazil was reported favor
ably by tlie Senate foreign commilte
on the 2Uth. The indications are Unit
there will lie no immediate action by
the Senate in his case, and neither
Democrats nor Republicans seem to
take any great interest in tlie mat
ter.
