It will bo a good deal as Itindall sijs about It , though , as ho is most decidedly an ad vance guard of the hens ? , nnd a candl date for tpcnkcrship of the Forty ninth congress. It Isn't easy to toll just what that man's plans are at all .times. Yet ho can bo counted upon for koop'ng an eye upon his own bast interests whtlo serving fiithfully the ' democratic party. If ho gold the sponkershlp will depend in a great measure npon who is put intD the cabinet , and If the "solid south" gets the lion's eharc , and it looks that way now , Sam Randall will have n clean sweep. HE IS AFFLICTED WITH TUB C10UT just at present a dlscaso that stmawhal Interferes wi h the calm , mirror-like E'ir- ' face of a man's temper. Yesterday ho was so holploes that Itwas necessary to carry him to his carriage , and couldn't chaperon the guilelets members that wonl to Philadelphia last night to attend tbc "Amoricus club'1 reception. However , Gen. Blugham hid them in charge and I think they were well protected and of all class of innocents away from homo members of congress need the moil careful attention. Gen. Bingham , like Mr. Randall , represents the pious Qua ker element of Philadelphia , and ii es pecially renowned for his "silent devo tions" to the cauto of humanity. Ho has a handtome residence In Philadelphia and lives like a prince not the prince ol Wales , for ho is a widower , and the object joct of sheep's eyes from the galleries. Ho carries himself well , and is not given to much epoach making , thank heav. n , ] always feel devotional toward the mem bers of the house who ara intollligenl enough TO KKEl1 TIIEIK MOUTHS SHUT when they _ haven't anything to say. Gen. Bingham is that member. Ho h r.Vher distingue looking , being very bald headed and wearing glasses and altogether a pink of perfection in dre > s and Dppaaranca. Not a very tall man or a very largo man in pliya'qno ' , but good deal of a man in most things , and ii one of Blalne's devoted admirers , or was during the cnitennlal year , as I happened to bo a visitor across the street when Mr. Blaine was so ehoontely on- tertslned at Gon. Bingham's homo. Men have been known to change their minds after bslng elected to congress and learn ing the ropes , eo to speak , and possibly Gen. Bingbom may not be to in love with the ox-senator as ho was. As Mr. Bhino Is now only spoken of socially , wo cannot judge how it is with Gon. Bing ham ootliat | footing , as ho Is not In society this wintcrhis wife having died but a few months ago. However the code for mourning is very brief In Waahinpton , haven't time and political life is too ileot- Ing. ONE OF THE BUSIEST MEN , and makes the least fuss about it , Is Mr. Cannon , of Illinois , who Is a leading re publican member cf the appropriation committee. Ho seoma to have the greatest facility for gliding about , dart ing hero and there , alwaya oa hand to vote , and drawing in the lazy pokes who rather lounge and tell good ( ? ) jokes In the cloak rooms , or lying sprawled out on the sofas In the rear of the house. I do feel that eomo of these loungers are indecently disgusting in the way they flop around on the lounges , smoking cigars , and talking and laughing loud enough for the galleries-to hoar. At the luttance of Mr. Cannon ( [ am now epeiklng the republic m side of the house ) , off they roll with a dull thud , like eo many saw logs , and In the hzlest manner possible drawl out , "Mr Speaker , no I" or * Yes ! " as the vote may require. Mr. Cannon is cno of the watchdogs , tho' ho Isn't eternally talking at a mark , as eomo of the others are. When ho has anything to say ho says It In a forcible way , and well understood by the gillcrlcs. This Is eaylng much , for It is l.ttlo wo understand of the gib berish beloir. Mr. Kasaon was consld orod the graceful , elfgant man of the house. Ho could bo BO when eolf-for * getting , but his manners were studied and adectod and at times most rndo nnd iniDolite , while Mr. Cannon is alwaya eo gelt and very graceful in manner while speaking , and not being the p'd man that Kaeson is , ho enjoy * society in a ra'ional ' way and waltzes beautifully. Ho is abpvo medium height nnd well per. tloned , light brown ha'r ' and whijkcw , and a clear pink and white completion that a woman might envy. Hit Friuce Albert ccat fits him perfectly , showing oft his broad shouldrrj and full chest to per fection. Ho doesn't look to bo nvoi forty , yet I presume ho ii for ho lias baer In congreis ever since I can remember , ; You cm dooldo that matter for yonruulvoi by lookiug In the Congressional which gives correct lUtes about ages o conwr , as oao i member writea his owi hi'.tary over two years.

What moro can the yonng aiy desire 1 THE LATEST GOSSIP about the incoming cabinet Is Hut Sena tor Larnar will bo chcstn for the interior. It Is evident that no national view is taken cf the "ttcnml fitntss of things. Senator Lunar Is a great moii , a learned man , a good nun and a mcst gifted and accomplished statesman. A statnnnu rather than n politician , yet none have a bettor knowl- ulga off or Is a more clcso stndcnl of political economy than la he. Do is n earnest legislator and at times impetuous , but this is physical.Vo all know that be is called , and ii , thn most tcholarly mm in the senate. Ilia people , tbo Misiisslppians , revere him , believe in him and repose their full confidence ia him , and I believe the entire sooth feel that Senator Limar Is the wan they would select to fill the high position rf ( ccrelary of state , yet would struggle agilnst having him Icavo the toca'e , for who could fill his place there ? But Sen ator Bayard Is the one chosen for that position From high authority I have It that Bayard will go Into the cabinet aa necrotary of slate , and Mr. Lamar will bo offered the Interior. If he'll accept It or not Is another matter. Ho is looking well phys ically , moro like the active legislator of eight years ogo. For the past few years he has been in wretched honllii and his taken little or no part in active debate. The death of his wife a few wcoks ago was a terrible blow , and ho says ho haa but little heart in personal honors. Mrs. Lamar was one of the most devoted wives end fond mothers it has been my pleas nro to mott ; a woman of rare cnlturo and accomplishments , and In every sense a fit nndjtruo companion of her gifted hus band. Society know very little of her , aa she preferred the closer ties of homo and a few choice friends. Tliolois of such a companion la Indeed n great sorrow to Mr Lamar and his family. Hla yonng unmarried daughter is with him , a lovely girl of about 10 years , very like her mother In appearance and lovable traits of character. Senator Lamar his never mingled much In gay society , Is domestic in hla hab.ts , and is too much of a book-worm to enjoy par ties , balls and recepticns. Yet , should ho RO into the cabinet , ho will do the so cial honors , assisted by h's ' young daughter , with o-sa and simple elegance. Senator Baratd Is moro heard of In so cial circles. Ho likes a good dinner , and knows how it should be cooked. Ho prides himself upon the art of cooking terrapin , and is also fond of thothoatre. ] Last week , while Horny Irving and Miss Ellen Terry were hero , ho wai often seen at the theatre , and gave a box party and a supper afterwards to Miss Terry , his daughters being of the party. This only shows how well England will fare when he has International affairs to attend to. While Mits Terry played the part of a charming young lady well , I siw nothing great In her , wishing to call out very marked atten tions from our most distinguished statesmen , but no doubt she is a beautiful dinner commpanlon and understands the ait of pleasing , and as the Princa ol Wales delights to honor onr beautiful women , and bestows favors npon our actresses , It is veiy kind and clever in Senator Bayard to show such marked at tention to Miss Terry. While this dis tinguished supper was going on at Welk- ore , Willie Walter Phclps , M. 0. from the Jerseys , assisted by the Blaineeos were dining and wincing Henry Irving at Willie Walter's homo. So these Eng lish actorj rfbt only cirried away a whole pile of money , but a whole pile of re nowned attention , enough to furnish him with advertising for yeara to come. CON.

HURT BY AN ELECTRIC SHOCK , A Man WhomsHafloa Cripple for Lifcbytdo fculiile Final Trial ol'Ills Cult lor nmnn CB Against the Coinimny. Denver Tribune-Ilepubllcan. The distnjt court was engaged yester day afternoon In the trial of the case of Charles Lubber ve. the Colorado Electric company , which la ganeially known aa the Electric Light company. The a.tiun was for damages fcr InjurioJ caused to the plaintiff while In the service of the defend ant , nidged upon work which lie was di rected to do , but which was not within the ntuil scope of h's ' omploymcnt. Ho Is by trade a carpenter , and It was us n cirpinior that ho was usually emiilojod by the dofcudnnt. But en tbol7ihday December , 1881 , ho was directed by Mr. Ilutul'o ' , the manager of the Electric com pany , to go the corner of Fifteenth and Champa streets and remove an electric lamp which was situated there , and which would no Kngor bo in use. The lamp was placed upon a polo nt in olova- tlon of about fifteen feet atovo the sldowa'k , and Lnbbar had to stand upon a step-ladder in order to ramovo It. After ho had removed the lamp , and was In the act of uniting the ends of the several wlroa , so as to complete the elec tric circuit , and while ho had hold ot the with each haud , a carrcut of electricity was sent through the wlror. Lubber re ceived the full foreo of Iho shock , and wai thrown backward upon the sidewalk , falling upon his head. Ho was seriously injured and was taken up in an uncou- Bciuiu condition and removed to his homo which was with his mother. Ho testified that ho did not fully re gain his consciousness until the 10th of January following the Injury , and that ever ticca then ho has been subject to epileptic fits. His heating is impaired , ai B-O also the nervcsof his loft eyelid. In consequence nf the injury his eyelid ho ii unable cither to cpen or close hia loft eye without uting his hand Ho went to California with the hope of regaining hi ] health , and wai absent from Denver for about fifteen months , but his health was not improved. Sinca the receipt of the Injury complained of Iho plaintiff has fallen five different times from buildings upon which ho was work ing ni a carpenter. Ho Is about 23 jcira cf nga , and is the only support of his mother. General Sam Brown and Judge Mills appeared for the plaintiff , and Mr. Pctt- tcwon appearing for Mr. K. 0. Wolcott a * counsel for the defence. The case was argued bofcra tha jury last night at a night saeslon. The dofouao introduced no testimony of much weight , but confined their of- fotts tD n fight over the legal and technical point ] . They claim , with soma shorr of reason , that a suit like the one brought by Mr. Lubbers cannot ho'd good In law ; that corporations cannot always bo held responsible for careless ness In employes , and that tlio mansgera of the company were not to blame for the turning on of the current at the time named. The defense presented Berne strong authorities to sustain thesa and similar positions. The court , however , partially dissented from the claims of the defense by refusing to grant a non-suit and letting the caeo go to a jury on its merits and the arguments of attorneys. Tha jnry returned a verdict in favor of the plaintiff for § 5,500. BECK AND.MORGAN. A Very Warm IDeliate In tlio United States Senate1 , During the debate on the Texas and Pacificforftituro bill quite a Bcniation was created by the tilt between two dem ocratic senator" , Beck and Morgan , which well foreshadows what Trill bo a frequent oourcnco within the democratic party whtn it comes into pow\ir. In the courao of some remarks on the hill during the debate , Mr. Beck eald ho supposed In 1878 , when the Thurman bill was passed , that congress had Eccurad tome practical control over the Pacific roads , but ho had been mistaken. Now this house bill Is met by a counter prcposi tlon. The Reagan bill had boon met by a counter proposition , A number of other measures had been up , but had been foaght to the end. This was whut the ra'lroads ' wanted. Ho would not vote against Mr. Sheimiu's amendment and others because ho thought it batter to have imperfect legislation ihun none at all. all.Mr. Mr. Morgan said rtho effort of Mr. Beck to Impeach the democrats who had opposed the Reagan bill and had adopted an independent corns3 on this bill would not deter him ( Morgan ) from doing his duty. Ho had been in the democratic party baforo tin senator from Kentucky ( Beck ) enjoyed the privilege of citizenship - ship In thia country. Ho ( Morgan ) had been a true and faithful democrat and it did not rest with the senator from Ken tucky to Impeach his democracy by such ( lings as that convoyed by his last re marks. Mr. Morgan would bo found to bo a supporter oE the Incoming adminis tration , also , of principle , If it should be an administration of principle , and as long as the senator from Kentucky he would stand by the dornoc'a'ic croed. Ho did not enjoy these declarationaraado at the expense of party associates ; they wera not kind. Mr. Beck disclaimed any allntion to the senator from Alnham * ( Morgan ) , or any other i en a tor. "Ho U not quite si Important , " Mr. Berk slid "In my esti mation , In regard to those questions as ho may tbink he la.

In conclusion Mr. Bock mid : "I regan tha suggestion as to my nativity ai tin worthy of the sen tor , unworthy of tin senate and tmwerthy of a reply " Mr. Morgan said he made no reforeno to the senator's lutivlty , only to thotimi ho bad been in the domccfat'c ' ratty ane while hl ( Morgan's ) sof vices to the demo cr < ktlo patty had not born as orniplcaom is those of Mr. Back , they had been at honest anil heartfelt.

Two influences have tended to main tain a high price en barbed wire , which in many parts of the country , where etono ana wood are difficult to obtain , hla be come almost a necessity to the farmers' . These influences are patents , and tariff on wire and wire ro3s. The fanner have been held by ft clcso monopoly , which has been able to retain Its monopoly through tariff , and whfch 1m "farmed ' out at exorbitant royalties tha privilege of mailing mo of all or of some of the pat ents on this article. Such bes boon the demand for barbed wiro.ttat a Jarcjo uum- her of wira mill turned to its manufac ture , and , until recently , were willing to ( ay the royalties demanded. Now , however , tha cesa Is very differ ent , and for B m ? yearn a contest has been pending between the holders of the patents andttusa who mo them. The cjutts have bean called to paHj npon the validity tf the patents and every possible means of evading the piyment of thoroy- allies. Natuia ly the Western farmers have shown the r strong interest in this question , and it looks as if they were at last to have cheap wire * , for , us well bo saon by a despatch wo print th's ' morning , one of the Important patents has expired , and is now hold whcrj It ran bo used at lower rates. To reduce the royalty by two-thirds would prove a great benefit to mrsiref who are selling their wheat at prices which hardly cover the cost cf production. To complete the benefit the tariff on wire rods ehould be reduced. All "Played Our. " "Don't know whnt alls molataly. Oan't oat well can't s'oep well , Oan't work and don't enjoy doing anything.
