A POSTPONEMENT.
At a Cabinet meeting held last Friday it
was decided to postpone the e.ttrn session of
(Jongresafrom tho 4th ot June until tbe Hub.
of October, The reasons assigned are that
the business of the country would sorter
from the heated discussions that would en
aue, and members of Congress would be in
convenienced by having to remain in Wash
ington during the hot days of summer. It
seems more probable, however, that the true
reason Is, that Hayes has given up the hope
of securing an Administration Speaker for
the House of Representatives if the House
meets in June and accordingly postpones
the meeting until later in the season. The
difficulties that immediately present them
selves are numerous. There is no appro
priation for the support of the army, and
the troops must be kept In service on tho
supposition that Congress will make an ap
propriation in October. Butthe House is in
clined to the belief that the army can be re
duced to 17,000 men and will also think that
the appropriations hitherto made aro too
large if the army can exist three months
without money. The Navy, too, is in a had
way. Robeson used tbe appropriation for
pay, for other purposes and the men have
not been paid since April 1. There has been
some plan patched to up carry the Depart
ment, over until October, but it is sorry bu
siness at the best and will be apt to lead to
trouble hereafter. The House, it will be re
membered, insisted at the close of the last
session, on having a clause inserted in the
Army bill prohibiting the use of the troops
in Southern State for political purposes.
Wbat.etfect the withdrawal of the troop
from Louisiana and South Carolina will
have in this regard remains to be seen. It
is quite likely that a reduction of the twee
will be warmly urged.
THE WAR.
New complications are arising daily in the
positions of the various great powers which
bid fair to result seriously. Greece is more
tffan anxious to take arms against the Turks.
Kbumania is in open revolt against them and
fighting between the Roumanian and Turk
ish forces has already occurred. Austria's
attitude in menacing and her troops have

rostfonliR the Extra Session.
Tho postponement of the extr.i session of
Congress till October was carried In face of
the actual business interests of the country,
In view of political contingencies the Presi
dent did not care to meet. Notwithstand
ing urgent reasons for calling tho extra ses
sion of Congress at once, tho President took
counsel of his prudence and pushed tho evil
day as far away as powihle, liecause unwlt
ling to face an opposition vhlch may have
proved too powerful, and at any rate would
have provpd exceedingly troublesome. The
Democrats hold the House, and need less
than a hall dozen votes to control tho Sen
ate ; and thero nro disaffected itopuldlcnus
enough to unite witli the Democrats ami give
them actual coatrol of Congress and block
tho Administration.
It is well known that ther.' are Di-mocrats
who are determined if piwihlo to push their
opposition beyond measures of public poli
cy to an inquiry Into the lltla ot the Presi
dent tohtsotfice; and itisiiuposaihletotcll

that it would prove preju liolal to the busi

was a shrewd stroke of p illcy o.i his part
but it was neverthclttMii sacrilba of solid
business interests to a political exigency;
and ono which brings out the defects of our
present system of government in strong
colors.
There were hut two courses open to the
Preddent under the Constitution ho could

The Secretary of the Navy is thinking ot
asking Congress for an appropriation ol
$509,000 to fit out eight vessels should the
war in Europe render them necessary. We
earnestly hopo Oongrt&s will do no such
thing. Robeson spent millions ostensibly in
fitting up vessels for service, and the navy
to-day exists only in name. There is hard'
ly a possibility that thU country will be.af-
fectod iu auy nianuer by the war between
Russia and Turkey, aud an appropriation
will result only iu patching up, some of the
unseawurthy hulks which Robeson and his
ship building friends have been tinkering at
for years. Let the Navy alone until it falls
to pieces of its own weight. If any money
is to be spent, let it be in bunting up some
of tho workings of the Department uuder
Robeson perhaps it could be ascertained
what becime of the $1,000,000 arising from
the sale of tbe Philadelphia, Navy Yard
The United States Navy is in such a condi
tion that it would require millions of money
to place it on an equility with that of any
one of the Great Powers,aud $500,000 would
be but a drop in the butket of expenditure.

Judge Schaeffer of Utah rendered an im
portant decision rt Salt Lake City, a few
days ago, in the divorce suit of Ann Eliza,
a wife of Brigham Young against her bus
band.
The Judge decided that the plaintiff was
notentltled to a decree of divorce, the alle
ged marriage being polygamous, and there
fore null and void ; also, that "during the
time plaintiff was with defendant as polyg
smous wife, be wag serving him as a menial
servant, and would be entitled to reasonable
compensation for her service ; but, having
received Intbia instaace, in tbe form of ali
mony ptndtnte lite, more than such services
are shown by the proof to be reasouably
worth, she would go hence without further
compensation."
The importance of this opinion will be
seen at a glance. The numerous wives of
Rrigar Young and other have no legal ti-.
tie to. their positions, their marriage being
contrary to law and consequently null and
voidL If these unfortunate women have no
rights which the law acknowledges, how
can the law tolerate the existence ot the

On the morning of the day after the Pre
sidential election of November last, des
patches were sent from Republican head
quarters in New York to the chairmen
of the Republican State Committees of South
Carolina, Florida and Louisiana, instructing
them to hold fast those States for Hayes and
Wheeler. The machinery to execute these
instructions was promptly put in motion ami
the scheme of Zith Chandler and bis con
federates iu due time received the sanction
of tho Electoral Commission. To-day, how
ever, in spite of all tho fraudulent preten
sions which were set up, each of tbe above
mentioned States has a Democratic Govern
or and Legislature. This fact aione is a suf
ficient commentary upon the validity of
HayeV claim to bo President of the United
States.
Last fall A. P. Barber, Republican, had a
majority of over 900 for Prothonotary of
Luzerne county. His competitor was S. W.
Trimmer, Democrat, then Prothonotrry, who
contested the election on the alleged ground
that be was defeated by fraudulent votes,
Barbel obtained bis commission from tho
Governor, but Trimmer refused to abdicate,
claiming that under tbe act of 1839 he could
hold over until the contest was decided. His
opponent maintained that tbe actot 187-1 re
pealed the act of 1839, and took possession of
the office on January 1, at night. Tbe next
day Trimmer captured the fort. Barber had
writ of quo warranto issued, aud Trimmer
was ousted by order of tbe court of Luzerne
county. To-day the Supreme Court reversed
the action of the court below, and Trimmer
will assume tbe functions of Prothonotary
until the contested election case is decided.
which will scarcely be within 4 year.
According to an Associated Press tele
