It m Doticed that t!ie President nor any of

who came into the Hall. The question as
to who should preside tilled the minds of
some, "but the (juiet demeanor of Mr. Mal

tlie Convention to order, convinced every
one that he. at least, had no misgivings on
that BUleci. The Convention was called to
order, the roll called, and a quorum found
present, after which Mr. Buroank offered a
resolution tliat they now proceed to busbi'S

iiainel individual grew (eroeinus and looked
-daKUer at the presnmptioua (?) Senators
-who had lared to invade tlx- sanctity of the
House, after a motion had been maele and
carried by the Senate to adjourn. Several
motions were made to adjourn, but were
vote.il doun in regular order. Mr. Burlnk
was tailed to tflo chair, and the Sjieaker took
tlie tl(Mr and flung law and gospel at them
in a ri-dlsit iivianor. He didn't want any

House tiiwhng they they were getting the
worst of tiie argtiment. had snddeu oulls

had it all their own way then, and proceed-e-d
to utiininate candicUtes for the office of

If the Sesxte. There being a tie Tote
in the fcienate on all political questions there
is unusual interest fe-lt in its proeeodings
by tlsxe iki the ont-ridu. The lobby baa
lx-cu almost constantly filliil during the
whole of tins week and an equal amount of
interest shown m its transactions with those
of the House, although perhaps the Canal
and Lrn-k Hill did for a day or two attract
the largest crowd to the House. Yesterday
afternoon tlie Senate was for sometime dis
missing business of local interest to Salem,
in which, if course, the citizens of the
place feel a lively iutereat. The location
of the Capitol linikluiff wiu what
ailed Umto and Jfr. Fay with his usual
zeal ofnamed it with all his power and prac
ticed all the dodges of padimentary law in
order to delay the matter in such a'manner
that the bill raiglit die in the hands of a
committee or else be laid upon the table
beyond all redemption. But through the
?ersistet efforts of our worthy Senator J.
. Munres assisted by other friends it was
referred to the committee on Pnhlic Hnild
rngs with instructions to report at 10.30
o'clock this morning. Mr. Fay and others

arveral Senators that now use their utmost
mdi-arors to retard the erection of this
building and who beat around thu bush in
-very dira-tion to dodge the main qcestion.
Again on the question of going into joint
convention for the purpose of electing Com
missioners etc. The House Joint Jlesolu
tion agrtjng to go into Joint Convention
l;ist evening was setit in fur the action of
the Senate. Mr. Fan opposed the passage
tif this Ri-soluuon bm it prevailed in spite
of his etfoits. tteveral motions to take a
recess were voted dowa aud finally amotion
was iuade to adjourn which was carried.
Democrats claimed that this motion knock

time and were rejoicing wer the fact. But
when we left the Republican members liad
resolvud to gu into convention anyway.

The Senate Chajcber. Another day of
political wire-pulling and sharp practice has
passed with its usual amount of interest
pro and con." From the time of conven
ing yesterday morning until six o'clock in
tiu- evening it was, as one might say, a con
tinned struggle lor the ascvtidam-v; and all
manner of subterfuges were indufgt.il in by
which private interest might be promoted
let the consequences lie what they might
to the State. ' Uwing to tlie weakniisof cer
tain Republican members the Democracy
have had full sway on evrtain questions of
momentous importance, but tliauks to those
who are true blue, tlie yeas and nays were
demanded on nearly every question, and
their record stands as a living monument to
blast or brighten their political earner, as
the case may be. The Canal and Lock Bill
came up in the morning, and no sooner was
the new s spread that the Bill was nndercon
sideration than lobbyists began pouring in
to the hall nntil tlie re was scarcely standing
room left Several well known ladies
brightened the otherwise gloomy aspect of
the room by their cheerful faces, while
members of the House who were friends of
the Bill were rushing in and ont of the
room, whispering and button-holing in the
most approved atyle. Certain Republican
members appeared to be more confidential
than usual with members of the other
side of the House, The reason of this was
apparent when the roll was called on the
adoption of certain laudable amendments
offered by Mr. Dolph, and the vote stood 13
to 9 in opposition to said amendments. 11 of
the former being Democrats, and tho re
maining two what? Why, Republican (?)
Sternberg, of course. The bill was again
brought np as the special ooler at 3 P. M.,
and further consideralion again postponed.
Points of order were raised on every imag
inable score and Legislation delayed in dis
cussions that were at times more than un
necessary. Bui "any tiling to get the Lock
Bill through." With 13 members for it,
the opposition could not help themselves,
although they made a gallant resistance.
As usual the motion to adjourn was quar
reled over for some time, but they finally
effected an adjournment until 10 A. x. to
morrow, although a special order of busi
ness had been made for an evening session.
"For ways that are dark and tricks that are
vain." the Heathen Chinee is less peculiar
than he was.
A Worthy PrrrnoH A petition was be
ing circulated yesterday and receiving the
signature of .nearly every person to whom
it was presented asking the Legislature to
locate (lie Capitol buildings on the grounds
already owned by the State en W Olson's
Avenue. The list of names was very
lengthy and the petition eemed to be fa
vored by nearly every one.

On thk Sick List. Quite a number of
the Legislators were on the sick list yester-'
day afternoon. In one or two cases they ,
are coutiued. to their rooms. Me-ssrs. Cra-'
nor and Cooper of the House were both ab
sent from their seats last evening during
the exciting contest over the Canal and
Lock Bill. Yesterday afternoon a lounge ;
was brought into the Senate Chamber for
the use of the President, Jas. D. Fay, who
was indisposed the most of the afternoon.
The Honorable Senator could recline at bis
ease aud vote for or against a measure as ho
saw tit, and towards night when a motion
was made to take a recess until 7 o'clock, it
was reallv surprising how inauv of the Sen
ators were unwell. Mr. Hoult arose and
laving his delicate "tin" over his bread bas
ket complained of sickness in piteous tones.
Mr. Brown of Marion had his bead over a
spitt-sm mid ill a pleading manner asked
to bo excused from voting for a recess.
Mr. Brown of Baker tottered from his seat,
unci in hollow tones assured the Senate that
he felt a goneness where he lived and would
be unable to honor tlie evening se-ssion with
his benign countenance. Mr. Fay's emaci
ated form spoke volumes in a iiiiiimer moie
pathetic than words alone could do. Mr.
Tohn lookeel ill and no doubt he felt so.
Mr. Myers felt ill although he elid not lisik
so. MY. Myers looked as though he wanted
to be sicker and Mr. Mourou wished he w as,
while nur obese friend Stratum really im
agined be was sick. But tlie whole Dcmi
cratic force really were decidedly down in
the mouth about 9.30 o'clock after tlie de-fi-at
of the Canal and Lock Bill in the
House.
Fihally Paid. Mrs. T. J. rhillips, who
for many months past has been tndeaveir
ing te sei-ure the iiiaurane-e due her em the
death of her husband has, we are informed,
riuully met witu success, and her claim lias
been paid.
Appointment. The County Commis
sioners have appointed Irwin B. Uleason
Justice of the Peace for Sublimity precinct.
From Unity of Tuesday Oct. 22.
Tue Senate Chambeh. The week lias set
in under the most favorable auspices, and,
although the time allotted by law for tlie
Legislature toailjournisup. still there seems
but little like lihood of au aeljournmeiit in
this, the uppe r house. St tialc 1U solutions
and innumerable House bills still UckkI the
Secretary's table, through which it would
take a week of legislation to wade success
fully. The main bill of local interest con
sidered in thisbody yesterday was the enti
locating the Capitol "grounds. A strenuous;
effort was maele to effect the bs-ation eif
these builelings across the e reek, but the
committee to whom the matter was referred,
af ter a pe rsonal examination of the se verm
locations propeised, decided in favor of the
plot of ground alreaely owneel by the State,
on Willson's Avenue. It is preijsweel to
fmrchase a block of ground udjace nt to this
oc ttion, and present it to the Stale, which
will make ample room for the buileling and
grounds. Messrs. Fayand Hoult opposul
the measure with their usual pertinacity,
bnt their votes were not sufne-ieiit to defeat
the plan. The tug-boat question elicite d a
bvejy discussion, and whether or 110 Cant.
Flavel's contract with the State should Imj
cancele-d. was uneler consiile-ration for some
time, but the Senate linallygrauted its con
sent to the rescinding ef a contract which,'
in our humble opinion, should have bee n
alloweel tei remain in feirce. The appropri
ation bill having been delayed leiiig enough
to suit the Democratic side eif tlie bisly, itwaa
magnanimously (?) allowed togo through by
a unanimous vote. It being "breael ami
butter" for the members uotloubt led to
this condecension on the part oftlie Demo
crats. But as usual they refuseel to go into
joint convention; neither would they vote
for any definite day to adjourn sine die.

the friends of the bill, to rush it through
without the customary reference, lie
offered his ami'iidineut to supply an
important detect in the hi I. He had
examined the bill carefully, and he
had found that there was no' provision
in it, by which the company would be
compelled to give bond to convey a
lerlcct title to the State; at the expira
tion oftlie lease, lithe State prooses
to give Sl-0.iWK lor souwtniug, it is
worth while for the State to know
