A weekjater the, Republicans will assemble in liarrisburg, and the followimr week tl Democratic Convention will be lipid In litu. burg. The.first named had appointed the l5th,May. for their convention, but the Re publicans calling theirs for the same day, the Oreenbackers changed their date to the Sill, so as. to liave their ticket In IheTeld before both the other parties. The Kepub Jicans were determined to get ahead of th Democrats, who will meet on the 22d May, These early conventions indicate a lively campaign and, we believe, it would be to tho advantage of the Democrats In every county in tne Bute to put their county tickets I thf field as soon as possible. By so doing they will insure thorough local organization without which there can be no success. After this has been accomplished. they can- quietly wait until within n month of th election, when tho ball can be opened nn vigorously coutlnutd until the polls aro closed. i.arly county conventions will not only enable the Democrats to perfect the: organization, but much of the bitterness among candidates and their friends usually engenofrta oy a protracted struggle ft nominations will be happily avoided.

Stearns, and I.. G. Dennis, the little giant of Alachua county, havo made confes- ons in writing of frauds in 187C. by which Florida was carried for Mr. Hays. Dennis's confession covers tho Archer precinct frauds. He says that 2H names were nut on after the votlug. Mcl.lu's confession is said to cover all transactions before tho Slate Can- asaing Board. These confessions havo been rwarded to Washington. After Dennis made the confection, elev- ndictmenU against him fur fraud in Ala- 111a and Ivy counties wero nolle nrotted. McLin, It is said, was also rewarded, but In hat way was not known. Cost of State Legislation. The Pennsylvania legislature h as now been in session over one hundred day. In that time it has rasbfd but fourteen Mil and eleven resolutions. The expenses of the present legislature can be measured bv tboan of a similar body last year. The legislature of 1877 was in setsiou eighty days and cost HO,H0, or an average of $o,&00 per diem, (including Sundays.) The present body having already been in session for ono hun dred days, will cost ut least $550,000, with tho net results, as above given, of fourteen bills and eleven resolutions. The daily average expenses of tho body, based on those of 1877, also continue at tho rate of $5,000 per diem. If the session Is prolonged as desired by about ninety (out of the one hundred and nineteen) members of the Re publican house caucus, which melon Tues day evening, until the 24th of May, the cost to the state will be nearly a quarter of a million dollars in addition to the half mil lion already expended to this date.

To day, In the House, the resolutions of tho Maryland Legislature concerning the Presidency will come up for referenco to the Cnmmltteo on the Judiciary. They look that referenco In tho Senate, and in the House thn bill In givo authority to tho Su re mo Court In the matter wmt to that Com- mltteo without objection. If Mr. Garfield or any other Representative renews to-day the attempt of a week ago tn prevent a re ference to tho appropriate committee of these rrspeittul resolution of a Stato Legldature. ho will be voted duwn with all tho haste that tho rules of the House permit.

W Inch ever party carries on tho light thereafter will do so ngalnst hope. It is generally conceded that MiG.irralian comes out nf the examin ation before the committee in better shape than when it commenced. But the commit tee will announce their conclu-dons soon, al ter careful examination of the voluminous evidence, and they will bo able to reach a far more satisfactory aud conclusive result than any ono now can. In connection with tho famous interview of Senator Conkling, lately published, in which he so fiercely assailed the Adminis tration, his brother Senators, and public men generally, it is proper to say that on Saturday tho Senator declined to make any further statement concerning the matter. So his denial is substantially this: That the wuicumiui, .;,,,, ,), ,,uljli.ho.l re- port was made nn were private, whathn eft((; he was not correctly reported. This leavei any of tho abused parties at liberty to con aider himselflnsulted or not, as he pleases, Mr. Hayes, it is said, will improve the oc casion 01 uonkllng's mistake by sending the Senate a new lot of nominations for im portant offices in New York. It Is supposed to be the belief that the eminence of the gentlemen to be named, among whom are mentioned ex-feenator l'enton and Gen.Joh . Uix, will, while Conkling's influence sulleriugin the Senato from his ill-timed utterances in private life, lead to an imme diate confirmation. This would at onco throw the incalculable influenco of the New lork Custom House against Conkling when it becomes lime to elect a Senator to succeed him, Seminole. liOOK .NOTICES.
