Gr. svi-uor said that he desired to heap no stimulation or condemnation upon the Preailent for his veto messages. They were anted by total misapprehension on the art of the President of his relations to t* eioiinistration ot iho government. He Mr. Groavenor) hud read all the vetoes Jjomg from that prolific source of vetoes, udlm thought the trouble was that the President understood it was his duty to ex - mice every set of Congress, and to veto it a IS a member of Congress he would not rote for the bill. Hb gave no sort of con trition or weight to the fact that the 1«- jUkiinibrsueli of the government had acted affirmatively upon it. The President act'd lion the idea that the executive had the light, and it was his duty,to deoide absolute ly on every question. Another ide, 2 if the President's was that no jp: ivat.r at elrou d beipitoved uuless tbeie was a law author ing it, shelly oblivious to the fact that Congress was a law-making power, and had the r.jtat to confer a pension on anybody.

London, July 10.—Et. Hon. George Olto Trevelyan,who,with Chamberliau, reigned from tbe cabinet to oppose Gladstone's Irish policy, baa been ilctuite ins a Unionist ciindidat- in Hawwick for Parliament. Iu the list election Trevelyan wan returned as a Liberal from Hawwick, without op position. This year * John Dillon stumped tbe district against him, denouncing him for his opposition to the Premier's policy toward Ireland, and pointing out the uure sonahleness of Trevelj au’s attitude, in view of the fact that ho had been chief secretary for Ire land, aud by actual observation knew the merits of tbe issue. The result has been Spicy Debate—Executive S-ulon With Clowd Door*—Uoodo Rejected. Washington, July After the presen tation of the usual variety of petitions the Senate took np'ltiddleberger'a resolution offered yesterday to have the executive ses sion of the day held with open doors. Harris made the point of order that the resolution proposed a change of the rules, and that proper notice of it had not been given. Riddleberger conceded that (he point of order might apply, but ho bail merely wanted'to call attention to tho matter,' and was going to do so on every occasion that presented itself. Tho chair sustained the point of order, and the resolution was laid on the table. Sewell, from tbo ooumitteo on pensions, iresented a rep'dt lu the case of the vetoed rill granting a pension to Margaret D Mir- ebanri, widow of Commodore Mnrcbnnd. The committee repents iin former 1,-poit in the cna», and recommends the passage of ppote _ Nothing could be farther from the truth, that out of a total of 5,018 votes polled in Daring the entire eight yearn of General Haw nick borough, -A.

It was said that the Confederates ought to have thought of ,this matter of pensions twenty-five years' ago. He acknowledged that at tbe beginning ot the war he had not given the n»' ter that due consideration to which it had probably been entitled. [Liughler.l He had been quite a young uoy then; but along about tbe third yeurof tbe war he began to think seriously of it, and so much had he been impressed 'with ■he fact that tbe course he was pursuing would bankrupt the United States govern ment in pensioning widows of the soldiers he was killing, that finally, gun in hand, he retreated across five or six States with the enemy in his rear rather than slay the whole army. [Laughter.] The contest had finally come to the point that he aaid that he would have to slay tbe whole nrray or give op, and he laid down his gnn like a man and went home. He wanted to call attention to a lit tle incident which occurred when he wps on his way home. He had gone into the war at the age of fourteen, und had remained four years, and he was pretty well tired of fighting. There was suother boy with him, as he was going home, who had not been in tbe war so long and who wanted him to go across the river into Arkansas and fight with Kirby Smith. He had had enough fighting and did not wish to go, anil they were arguiog about the matter when they saw »u old gentleman coming across the field, aud waiting for them at the fence. When they reached him he was very muoh interested to know shout the surrender and “about our institution.” “1 told biui," continued Allen, in a doleful tone, “that our institu tion Was gone.” [Lmghter.] Ha then asked me wbat I was going io do. I told him I was going home. He said; “Voting man, you ore right; you go home and go to ploughing. My experience it that when you fight and get bc.uen yog, ought to i. i to s. thing cl-.. " ’ 1.. gan to philosophize^ and he snid: “Boys, it lias 1... n .i niii.-l.iy I. cl sir. W.. 1 iv. lost a good'many of our best men. We have a great many one legge I and one- armed soldiers in onr midst, who "can scarcely earn a living, and a great many widows and orphans. Society has been terribly 'demoralized and our homes have keen desolated aud devastated. Dojs, thiahssbeen a terrible war, but wo can ataud all this. Tbe only thing terrible is • hat some damned fools who have not mode much reputatiou out of the war, will be wautiog to throw this thing up to us for the next twenty-five yean.” [Loud laughter.] I make no appli cation of this incident, bat it doca look like tho words of proplietio wisdom. The message was then referred without objection. The next and l*st veto message the Hi>eaker'* table was then before the House. ' It wits Grant’s administration, only 512 private pensions were granted. During the Forty seventh Congress, which waa Republican in both branones, only an hundred and fift; - one privato pension bills were . passed. But during the last or Forty-eighth Con gress, which coutuined a majority of Demo crats in tins House, and when the gentle man from Indiaan, Matson, was ctiairmsh of the committee on invulid pensions, there were 552 of such bills passed und became laws, and during this Congress, since De cember last. Congress had passed GG5 pn vuto pension bills, of which about 575 had either been sign-d by President Cleveland or bad become laws witnout his action. 1 In had vetoed about 90 private pension bills, but 03 more had pissed aud become laws during his administration up to this time than were passed during the years of Grant's administration. General Black, commissioner of pensions, hie granted over 110,000 certificates to pen sioners since he assumed the duties ot his office, being 10 per cent, more than hod atonian candidate, received a mu. ijority of 30, obtaining 2,423 to 2,393 secured by Tr ■ ‘ " fsvelyan. Tho announcement of ths re nit has produced a’ sensation throughout tbe coumry. The Liberals are now predicting that Lord Harrington will also be defeated by tbe Glodstouian candidate iu Roseendslo, Lancashire. Tho eiectiou takes place next Monday. In tlie last election Lord Hart- iugton Was returned as a Liberal by a ma jority of 1.832, iu u total poll of 10,288 His opposition to the government's Irish policy induced ths Liberals to a-k Michael Divilt to contest Rassendole. D.nitt hesitated and filially declined, Burning that Lord Hsrtiogtou's attitude was purely patriotic aud disinterested. Subse quently the Liberals and Faruellites found reason to suspect that Lord Harrington's opposition to the Premier bud un uLerior purpose, and at the last moment they de termined to contest the district. Lord Harrington's opponents do not, how ever, make public their reasons ever before been issued by any of hia pro- | {or believing they wdl be ablo to give him decessors dating the same length of time. t i, 0 f ate 0 [ 'i' reT eIyau. uni, noiwiiosionuing iuia in- Hcaly however, in in pension payments, there had ;6i)6 over that he polled m l reduction of expenditures dur- Literal* and Tories > past fiscal year of over $10,900,D O Unionist, instead of di' The treasury of the United Elates attested to the effect of General Black's increased effi-. viency in the administration of the pension office.

The reduction of or dinary expeuUtur.esfor 1880, as compand with 1885, amounted to $21,500,0.0. This statement was from tho Treasury Depart ment.

Matson, of Indiana, said that the attempt at this time to pass tbe bill without referring it to tbe committee on pen sions would result iu a vote to sustain the veto, teoanse there were gentlemen on tbe Democratic side who are not satisfied to vote for the bill without the veto message being considi red by th- { oiumitlee.

If this were true, the committee was, indeed, con victed of e gross carelessness, and doubt leu the President made the statement to illustrate the loose method* of the commit tee and hie own accuracy in examining these private pension bills. If this charge is untonnded, then the President was con victed of a etUl grosser carelessness, be cause the report of the committee had warned him thet there wee a esse in the office. He (McComu) held in his hand the very handle of pension paper in the case of Joseph Botuiser. The packet recorded all the proceedings from the time of filing the chum in 1879 uniil ite rejection.
