President Grant and a portion of the Cab
inet a re off in the eastern States, where they
have been celebrating the Centennial anni
' vcreary of the battles of Concord and Lex
ington. Yankee histories have created an
impression that these were the opening
scenes of the revolution, but some envious
writer dissipates it by referring to the cap
ture of aship and other belligerent acts by
the Rhode Islanders long before. The truth
is there were numerous other instances of
hostility and rebellion, which led to the or
ganization of "minute men" at all points,
and it was that organization which surprised
and drove the British troops at Concord and
Lexington. The Massachusetts yankees have
always been adepts at excitingthe sentiment
of pity and it was tins that gave them the
preponderance of attention in tho opening
of the revolution, to which they contributed
little after tho commencement and first cam
paigns. The'preslding officers of the two Houses of
the Legislature of Louisiana have declared
the general appropriation bill, which Kellogg
has declared n law, a forgery. They say it
is not the bill that passed the Legislature,
and that it was altered after it went into the
hands of Kellogg. Some of tho items are
increases!, and others decreased. Tho only
oxeuse offered for the forgery ii that it was
done in tho interest of the tax-payers. This
is Grant's model Governor, whom lie sup
ports by bayonets, nnd whom the Senate a
few days ago thanked him for upholding
IIo's a beauty, indeed! What a delightful
state of things prevails in Grant's satrapy.
The Governor turns forger to protect, as ho
alleges, the people against a corrupt legisla
ture, whose appropriations nro beyond the
ability of the treasury to meet. What will
be the next Infamy in tho Louisiana busi
ness ? We wait new developments. Kr.
Let Republicans who are hugging the d'
lusion to their breasts that President Grant
canuot saddle himself upon their party for a
third term, consider how the Republican
National Convention will be constituted
when it meets next year. The States will be
represented by 3G9 votes in tho convention.
A majority will be 185 votes The Republi
can party in the south is composed almost
wholly of negroes. They are controlled by
carpet-baggers, who being office-holders, are
favorable to the retention of Grant, the great
dispenser of the patronage, in the executive
chuir at Washington. They will sec to it
that a solid third term delegation goes up
from the bouth to the National Convention.
The sixteen Southern States, including Mis
souri, will be represented by 138 votes. With
such a beginning in the Convention, the
President has t win but a few delegations
from the north to insure his triumphant
nomination. What may he not hope from
the labors of his zealous henchmen In New

debts. Tho charge upon the debt of Spain
is $55,000,000 per annum, but she pays it by
borrowing moro nt a higher rate of interest
(15 per cent is the last quotation). Now
with a general European war to follow with
its attendant increase in expenditure nnd in
debtedness, how is it possible that many of
the Continental nations will not eventually
reach' the paint of repudiation? Spain is
already on the verge of it. The immense
wealth of France may carry her through,
but can Austria and Italy stand the strain ?
i'lie burden of taxation will bear heavily
upon their people, nnd heavier as the years
roll on, and somo day tho question will be
whether they can bear it and live."
To Judge by the comments of the radical
press in various parts of the country the
mere fact of success of the Democratic party
at tho November election last year should
have healed every ill that flesh is heir to.
Some sediment of grief, sin, poverty and cor
ruptiou yet remaining to atllict and worry
mankind, it is assumed the Democratic par
ty is responsible thereforaud that it is a fail
ure and a fraud. This persiflage is probably
not intended to convince anybody of Demo
cratlc dereliction ; it is a light and airy way
of slighting over Republican short-coming1
which arc not likely to bo tolerated after the
power of rectifying them passeH into the
ands of their opponents. Tho change of
November, though sudden and overwhelm
ing, was not by any means absolute. In
most ol tnc bintes it only amounted to n
check upon Republican administration.
There remained impediments in the shape of
hostile executives, legislatures and forestall
ing laws which it will tako many hard
fought battles to remove. The value of the
success of last year is mainly to be measured
by the power it placed in the hands of the
minority of arresting bad legislation. Inthi
State the Democrats could do no more than
to refuse their assent to bad laws. They were
powerless to enact good laws that were of
fensive to the majority. In the next dm
gress ttiey will lc placed in the same re
strained position. The Republicans still
have charge of the government train and are

The Great Strike.
The great coal strike still continues with
out immediate prospect or settlement. The
corporations are evldtutly able to control all
other operators, aud we therefore do not be
lieve that they will ever yield. It is a com
mon saying that they have no souls to save,
but more unfortunately for the strikers they
have no sUmachs to feed,aud with their Im
mense aggregation of capital, they can hold
out for an indefinite period,
or at all ovents not to resign themselves to
it. Tho true doctrine of representation is,
that tho proper man to represent any con
stltuency is the very He-t man that can be
got to elect, and that no community is fairly
represented which is not represented by its
btst nieu. Its bad elements are entitled to
representation, or to enter into the average,
as a matter of legal right or expediency, no
doubt. But they hnvo do moral right to
any reprefeiitatiou at all, or if they have, it
is to that of the vuy best men ouly. The
wag who declined to go West and clear a
farm for himself 09 tho ground that "the
highest dvilliivLioo w-oa uot a bit too good

truth. It is from this great rule, that every

honestly, that political progress has In our

An Interesting suit, touching the liability
of banks to their depositors was concluded
in tho New York courts recently. The de
positors kept their nccounts in the Citizens'
National Rank. Tho suit was one brought
by them against tlie bank to recover $11 10,
alleged balance of their deposit, nnd turned
upon the genuineness of certain checks paid
by tho bank in 180S, signed with tiie name
of tho firm, and which were declared genu-
ine by tho cashier, te'ler and bookkeeper.
Tlio jury, however, decided them to be for
geries, and rendered a veidict in favor of
the firm for $2,137.(17, tlio full amount claimed
with interest.

The. Pras says tlie State Treasurer is "hard
up" for cash. Rut wherefore should he he ?
We believe there has been no complaint that
the revenues of the past year showed any
fulling off, and the appropriations of tlic.Ses
sion just closed have not depleted the Trens
ury. There must be'ssmething rotten in that
Denmark on the Hill. What has gone witli
tlie money: Who can tell the tax payers
who nre anxious to know? For tlio first
time in our memory tlie Treasurer has refus
cd to pay the members, and they returned home
empty-handed. It is pertinent to inquire
whether tlie Treasurer has loaned the public
funds out to favorite, banks and cannot get
them hack ? At ull events there is no doubt
the State Trcasiuy is seriously embarrassed
and there is no money to meet the ordinary
expenditures. There ought to be a remedy,
and there is, if the people will seek for it.
The management of the Treasury should he
taken out of the hands of tlie ring that have
so long controlled it. The revenues of th
State are ample to meet all expenditures, and
will if the funds are managed by honest, care
ful men. Sunbury Democrat.

A Wise Speech. During the senatorial
