He called attention to the ill-construction of the Capitol, particularly to that of the Senate chamber, now excessive in size, and secluded from light and air. July 23. Works, vol. x. pp. 495-499. July 24, Congressional Globe, p. 4072. He resisted the resolution authorizing a contract with Vinnie Ream for a statue of Mr. Lincorought on himself the criticism of being too partial to Mr. Seward's department.

s liberty by a foreign government, to use such means, not amounting to acts of war, as he may think necessary and proper to obtain or effectuate a release. Sumner opposed this amendment as conferring undefined powers, even those of reprisal. July 23. Congressional Globe, pp. 4359, 4360. His colleague Wilson, once a member, like Banks, of the Know-Nothing order, supported the bill, even voting for Williams's amendment. He approved the definition in the bill of the rights of citizenship growing out of expatriation, but Williams's amendment left the measure in such an unsatisfactory shape that he did not vote upon it. The bill passed with only five negative votes. Speaker Colfax urged Sumner, in an interview, July 23, and by letter the next day, to support the bill for political reasons. On the other hand, letters approving his course came from E. R. Hoar, P. W. Chandler. Marshall O. Roberts, and George Wilkes. Agassiz, referring in a letter, July 21, 1868, to talks with Su

has occurred, that courtesy is not applicable here; we are dealing with sterner things now. The Administration senators yielded to a recess from 6 to 8 P. M., and Schurz finished his speech in the evening. Flanagan, now remembered only for his antipathy to civil service reform, was the first to reply to Sumner; but the day of adjournment being extended for a week, the principal replies were made three days later by Carpenter and Logan. Conkling reserved his reply for Cooper Institute, July 23. Carpenter's reply was not wanting in vigor, but it was wanting in decorum of speech. He always found it difficult to rise above the atmosphere of local courts, and this me he fell below even his habitual plane. He said that the senator from Massachusetts had identified himself so completely with the universe that he is not at all certain whether he is part of the universe or the universe a part of him; that his presumption was such that he was likely to issue an enlarged edition of t

The seizure of the Virginius by the Spanish authorities in Cuba, with the summary execution of a large number of men on board, on the ground that, though flying the American colors, she was on her way to assist the insurgents in that island, was made the pretence of indignation against Spain, then a republic with Castelar at its head. There is always in the city of New York a filibustering interest which draws to its support a certain class of merchants
