He was turning out a plow of his own in

Pardou of ICoonejr, In for Life, nnd
«.f I .Inti V. I i-li. r.
Atlanta, November S3.—Governor Gor
don this morning pardoned and
ordered the dlsohirgo ot the only white
woman in the Georgia penitentiary. A
full history of the oase was published in
the Teliobapk some time ago and attracted
a great deal ot attention.
The woman, Isabella Rooney, was in the
penitentiary under sentence for murder.
She was, in foot, only an accessory. The
crime grew out of a fond between two
neighboring families and in a desperate
fight in whioh it found culmination, one ot
the opposing family, was killed by I lo
belia's brother. He has been hanged for
the crime and her mother died in jail,
where she was confined for the samo
cause.

Fight on tho Executive.
6 pec lxl to Oourler-Joaraal.
Wasuixotos, November 22.—From pres
ent indications it would appear that there
to be a consider able battle waRed by tho
Senate at tbe coming gesflion of Cougreos
ngainst the President. It will grow ont of
tho action token by Mr. Cleveland in the
appointment of Messrs. Angoll And Pat-
nam bb commissioners or special envoys to
confer with Mr. Joseph Chamberlain, Sir
Charlos Tapper nnd Minister West, tbe
British representatives in the settlement of
the ii9beriea troubles. It will bs claimed,
and with eome fferceneas of spirit, by Re
publican Senator*, tha*. the President has
acted oontiary to the prerogatives granted
by tho constitution, to mako each appoint
ments without the consent of the Senate.
In the first place, it ie claimed that the
Plftaiuolxt noa in OO -"lllSlizii tj
Congress to appoint a commissioner At all,
and, had this right been granted him, he
would not have named tho commissioners
without the consent of the Senate.
The j)alou«y of Senators in regard to the
8ecato T * power over appointments, which
tho comitiiation has placed in that body,
has heretofore been many timea manifoated,
and some of the loading Senators of to*dAy,
who partake of the spirit of tboir prede
cessors, aro prepared to raise with reference
to the recent appointments of tho fisheries
commissioner*, questions similar to those
which grow out of carUiQ aots by Presi
dent Madison and John Q lincy Adams.
SecroUry Bayard, however, thinks that tho
President without the previous consent of
the Senate, has tho power to negotiate Any
treaty, and in tho negotiation he may em
ploy such person or persons as he thinks
advisable for the bo«t interests if tho (Jol
ted States The Secretary believes the
President will be able to ward eff tho pro
posed hostile attitndo of tho SonAto by
characterizing the commissioners as Ins
“Agent*,” or “negotiators,” «« tho 8ecre-
tary has already diplomatic dly termed
them.
I a years past the Senate has vehomontly
“re.-mltiled” upon aimilar sobjeots and en
tered Its most solemn protest against what
it hui mildly termed “oanrpatlon” of power
by tbe chief executive. It onoe “solemnly

Tho reuon for this protest wm tbst tho

of tho constitution, which gives to
tho President the power to fill

tablished by the Senate, It looks that there
