ran bioh coubc or ixrsAcnxxirr
wan called to order by the Chief Justice,
9:30 a. m.
The minutes were read.
When the court adjourned on Satur
day, Senator McDaniel had the floor,
and this morning he resumed hia argu
ment on the order of Senator Cam
ming.
Senator McDaniel eaid that the Treas
urer did not deserve the credit of float
ing the bunds of ih.< State snooesatnlly,
as the scheme by which this waa accom
plished did not originate with Benfroe,
but it was simply the result of former
legislation, which he carried out just as
any other man could have done.
That he would not take time by going
over the ground covered eo ably by Sen
ators Clarke and Lester, but he bad this
to say, that the money deposited in the
banka by Becfroe was still in bis hands,
for this reason, if for no other, that it
wm deposited for his own benefit, and
not for tbstof the State, as prescribed by
law.
I deny that it is necessary for a statute
to be paused before a section in the Con
stitution becomes operative. This is tree
if yon wi.hed to pat bim in jeopardy of
life and liberty in a criminal court, but
this is not a proceeding to poniab John
W. Benfroe as a man, bnt it is the Coart
uf the state to try the Treasurer, a Statu
officer. When the Constitution speaks
with its ‘‘shall not,” no statute is nocessa-
•7-
Tbe Constitution forbids imprisonment
for debt. How, what statute is neces
sary to enforce that prohibition ? Can it
be that aft.r tbe acts passed and tbe pio-
visionaof the.Constitntion that the peo
ple are powerleea to impeach a Treasurer
who has received thousands In violation
of law, when it is established by tbe plain
est proof ? What treasnror of an obscure
county will not say, if this kind of of
fense goes unpunished here in the capi
tal, can he not do likewise and go free7
Senator Simmons said he did not re
member that any law bad been men
tioned allowing Runfroe to do what bo
bad been charged with. He did not
wish personally to be bard on any man,
bat that he would stand by tho voto cast
l.y himself before hia constituents. The
order offered by Senator Camming bad
no other effect than to give tho Senate
the question in broken doses.
Senator Bower said that ho waa op
posed to tbe order, because tho samo end
tmnld be accomplished by o.her means.
Toe Senate was approaching the dosing
■cents of another solemn drama. He
did not seek to become a partisan on
either side, or to question tho motives of
any Senator. The question addressed
itself to eaeh individual and conscience of
eaoh Senator. He had hiB own rale of
action, and wonld accord tho same to
each Senator. Tno law on tbo question
had already been argued by men having
preeeeded me, and though I might tread
grooud trodden before, I will give some
of tbe grounds wbiob will u flaeuce me,
J canno* oonceivo as a lawyer, stripped
of all irflaenoea within and without some
men who know tbe law, and look at this
question in the view presented here in
this Senate Chamber, I moan tbat, I esn
not see how a partial mind eon look at
it in tbe way they have. Men are often
partial not from meanness or corrup
tion, bnt from a most nobis eentiment
of friendship. That be granted the jus
tice to those Senators wbo have taken
tbe other eido that they were influenced
by tbla noble sentiment, and thus be
could not being biased, give tbo trne view
of tbe matter. Tne laws say in the con-
stitution In three plaoes that tho Treas
urer shall not receive any other compen
sation, save hia salary. Tbo Treasurer
pleads ignorance. When tbe constitu
tion said thu sold offense was a felony, it
was a felony. Whon the constitu
tion declared that a part of the penalty
waa disqualification to 'hold office, the
defendant was disqualified from holding
office. Now tho question that presents
is shall it be enforced. If the Legisla
ture for a hundred years to pass a law on
tbe subject it would not modify the pro
vision of the constitution, bnt here we
have a court, which requires no legisla
tive machinery to put it into operation.
I stand here, not os an individual, but as
a servant of tbe people, as a Senator
dealing with a Treasurer. The question
is not whether IJenfroe made a good
Treasurer, if, indeed, he only did his
duty; if he was a better treasurer than
his predecessor—it waa becamo his pre
decessor waa only a bad treasurer. Nor
do I look to what pubtc opinion tays. If
the people wish mo to vote otherwise than
my conviction, I will resign before I will
do it. I will vote as tbe law and my
dnty directs, it I stand or fall.
Tbe Court hero adjourned till 3:30
P. Die
The Senate also adjonrned
IN GENERAL.
The Senate will probably reach a vote
this evening on the Camming order,
which will in effect be a test vote.
It is with pain I have remarked tbo
immense amount of lobbying, not only m
tbe hotels and streets, bnt even in tho
privets rooms of the Senate, which has
been employed in this case. The city
has presented the appearanoo of election
times on several nights daring the prog
ress of this trial. Tho defendant and
his friends have not been idle both in and
ontof tbe Senate. Night and day have
they been at work. An immense amount
of lcflnonoe has been brought to boar on
tbe Senate, bat let them do their dnty.
If Benfroe is gnilty, say bo; if he is in
nocent, let them find bim so without any
fear or favor.
PERSONAL.
Again, it is my pleasure to mention
mwolieited the honorable oonree and in
telligent views of Senator Bower. His
is a pars heart and a clear head. Suc-
oets to bim. I would also mention with
huh commendation tbe speech of Sena
tor McDaniel. Caboltnn.

Panama, September 5.—The last mail
from tho South Pacific brought a Peruvian
official report and reports of Antaifagas-
ta newspapers as to the bombardment of
that city. . ,
Bear Admiral Gran states that h-» had
„j intention of opening fire upon the
town, but entered the harbor in ortier to
see if anything oonld be done to cot out
the Abato and Hagalla vessels, whioh
wars anchored there, without injuring
neutral ve.sreta.of which there were over
a dozen in port, and also to cut tho^cable
communicating with Santiago, it “>a
were possible. He waa surprised, "bon
about two thousand metres from tne
landing by a three hundred pound shell
which passed through tbe fuanel, break
ing the hoisting chain and port coamiDg
of the boiler hatch, and striking the
deck, where it exploded.
The crew of the monitor were at onoa
beat to quarters and the action com
menced. The batteries on shore were
three in number, north and south re
doubts, with two 150 pound Krupp guns,
and the oentre containing only one J.-
000-pounder. The latter fixed but one
shot when as it was badly flinged she
wm dismounted. The other Dattenes adu
one ship tired about 120 6bots, none of
whioh did any special d&m^kge, other than
cutting away rigging and upper works.
The Huasoar fired 26 shots from her 300
pounder and two from her 40-pouuder.
on deck.
The two Cbillian ships were ccreful
not to expose themselves. One, the
Abate, whose machinery was being re
paired, hrifVing on a line from her aafe
position behind a oonple of English ves
sels, firing a broadside and then hauling
ahead again out of range or our guns.
This movement, whioh was several times
repeated, was not always so rapidly ex
ecuted aa to avoid danger. One of the
Hnaecat’s sheila hit her amidship, killing
fire of the crew and wounding several
others, including Captain S. R. Sanohee
and the executive officer. The Magal-
Uues, it is understood, adopted the same
tactics, and as her movements were live
ly, than the Abato’s, she e-c.ped with
but trifling injury. ,
Admiral Gran claims that he silenced
the batteries on shore, and the fire of the
ships, but the papers deny these allega
tion,).
There are no losses of life and no spe
cial damage reported on shore.
Admiral Gran reports a lieutenant
killed and one man wounded by tbe shell
which Crat struck his vessel.
The Peruvian Corve’te, Union, has
been reported at Materiaa, whither she
has gone in search of the English
vessel Genoese, which sailed from Ant
werp July 20th with a large cargo of
arma for the Chilians. On receipt of this
intelligence at Santiago, the ship was or
dered to the straits to look for the Geno
ese.
Tho Genoese carries heavier metal
than the Peruvian ships. The white
Amorizon is also well armed. The con
test will be unequal, should the Chilian
ship remain together, orders to which
effeot have been given. The people are
oonfident of tbe capture of the Union,
although she is fast enough to ran away,
if not caught in a tight place in the
etralt.
Admiral Rsbollodo is commandi ag the
fleet with unlimited power. He is a
man of dash and action.
We are promised a lively campaign, in
which tbe destruction of the floating
dock at Callao, and the osptnre of the

Messes Weeks a Poixkb — Geatlemea- i
have beon a great sufferer with Salt Rheum for
Saves re, commencing in ray bead and fare and
extending over the greater part ot my body. I
have taken gallotiaol meoiemas for the blood of
different kmJs. and tried gvod physicians, all of
which did mo no good, and I came to the conclu
sion that 1 could not be ourod. But a friend
called my altenuon to an article m the Union on
skin disease., anil I got a box of Cuticura. Tne
first application wav a great relief and tbo third
took the acsles all off. and I felt like a new man.
1 have used three 80 cent boxes and myskiuia
smooth and I consider myself entirely cured.
Himing that it may bu seen b.v somo one alllicted
as 1 have been (if there is any) is my earnest
wish. And I cheerfully recommend it to all
persons alllicted with the above diseases.
Yours truly. B WILSON LORD.
