Terrible Destruction.-'!' ho North
Branch Valley has boon awfully
scourged by tho recent flood. I'itts-
ton suffered probably the most. The
town was overflowed and three iron
bridges of great ruluo were washed
away. The editor of the local paper
has but one consolation to offer his
readers "at least ono million of rnts
were drowned by the overflow.
'''Tut New State. Tho population
of Colorado wns set down at 39,000,
and yet at the last election they tal
lied 15,000 votes. Sixteen thousand
votes In this Stato would represent n
population of 90,000. We suspect that
their system of voting is of tho "free-
and-easy" kind. Thero is eomo fear
the Stato will ho led without a quo
rum when tbo trail Is open to the
Black Hills. Candidates for tho Sen
ate and other high offices ought to be
on the look-out.
The Local Option Vote, In leg.
islativo otiquotte, "the bill of tho ses
sion" war the repeal ol tho Local Op
tion law. This was uppermost with
both tho liquor and tempernnco leagues,
one consuming about as much whisky
and bcoras the other. Tho vote for
repeal was a very decided one, and
goes far to convince tho public that
the act in question was, in a great
measure, a fuiluro. Tho vote in the
Senate- stood yeas, 27 ; nays, 20 ; In
the Houho yeas, 122 ; nays, OS. U

A Suabht Trick. Grunt's pocket
. veto of the soldiers' bounty bill will
not Increase his popularity among the
soldiers and veterans of tho war who
have horotolore sworn by him. The
soldiers' friends didn't manago the
thing right. In order to obtain his
. signature they should have coupled it
with an incrooso of his salary to a
hundred thousand dollars a your.
Or if that was unconstitutional have
in some mannor mado tho donation to
him of that amount. . Vice President
Wilson ia considerably huffed at the
"government," and has written a let
ter taking Issue with the conduct ot
Grant & Co., and lays the defeat of the
bill at Grant's door.
; ' Read It. For a full and complete
Index of the internal strife now pro
vailing in the Radical party, because
of Grant's reconstruction measures, we
refer the reader to an article in this is-
' suo entitled, "Sam Bowles on Grant."
It is aotorious that ever since Congress
met in December, until the day of ad
journment, the Radical members spent
more timo in secret caucuses to ar
range party alTniin and the business ot
the country than they spent In the
halls ol legislation. And why was
this infamous system so tenaciously
adhered to by tho Radical leaders, if
all it well insido of tho organization ?
In our judgment, at least ono-third of
the party hat broken with Grant, and
can nover be rallied to his support if
ho docs succed in nominating himself
for a third term. .
Our Model Minister. Gen. Rob
ert Bchenck of Ohio, now our Minister
Plenipotentiary at the Court of Great
Britain, has in his lefsuro moments,
when not perplexed by tho affair of
State, compiled and publishod a band
book on "draw-poker," and card play
ing generally. Bchcnek is the repre
sentative abroad of a party whose
principle "come from God." The Eu
ropeans will wonder what kind of a
' God tho Yankee refer to when thoy
manufacture platforms, 1 This lust
move of Gen. Bchonck Is as great a
burlesquo on "christian statesmanship"
at his Vienna maskod battery move
ment in 1861, was disgraceful to him
at a soldier. As a warrior, ho is a
coward ; as a Plenipotentiary, he ia a
blackguard, and at a Congressman, he
was a failure. In fact ho fans succeed
ed In nothing, except as agambler,and
in disgracing his constituents at home,
and tho wholo nation abroad. Why
does Grant not call him homo ? .
The Bdriavists. The Radical phi
lanthropists who havo expostulated so
elaborately In the most pnblio places
for years, over the wrongs of tho ne
gro, teem now to bo tho very worst
enemies of that race. In tbo guise of
friendship, the longhaired, smooth
tongued Nuw Kngland agents havo
tubbed tho confiding people of millions
of dollara. It ia being more fully dem
onstrated every day that' the Freed
man's bank tt in a worso condition than
heretofore supposed, so much so that
ill commissioners appointed to tettlo
op iU affairs ask to be relieved from
Airther connection with It, There is
no palliation for this crime except res
titution with compound Ink rest. Uut
this, of course, will never be done, and
the millions of dollars invested in the

A RASCALLY THICK.
The last Congress wa, without
don lit, tho wickedest body I lint ever
assembled nt Washington. Tho mem
bers were guilty of all maimer of pub
lic and private wrongs, up to the hour
of adjournment. The doubling of piMt
ago on newspapers, wo presume, was
tii ofl'srt and make up tho deficiency
which was cuuscd by the salary grab.
Yet, now, after tlio net is passed, sago
Senators and honest (I) members stand
up and (Ittcluru that doubling tho post
age on transient newspapers was done
without tho knowlodgo or consent of
either llouso. , Tlio trick wai concoc
ted in n committee of conference, and
upon an appropriation bill. The amend
ment did lint reach the Senato until
two hours aftor midnight on the -lib
of March. Responsibility for the
amendment is tracod to Senator Ham
lin, who is the author of tho little joker.
PoHtmaitor-Gonoral Jewell, in his
letter of February 18, to tho Chair
man of tho Senato Postal Committee,
suggested tliat tbo rote bo doubled for
nierchandiso only, and his suggestion
did not npply to any mailable printed
matter liko newspapers.
All wo have to say oil this point is,
that ii Congressman who refuses
to replenish a depleted treasury, which
has been rendered so by himsolf and
his confederates by imposing a tax on
imported luxuries, and then will
turn around and vote for a law of this
kind, is either a kiinvo or a fool. The
infamous act couh i)iJ .ilwivo been
mado a law if thero hod''iiot been a
few of the creature indicated, iii'ou
gri'HS and tho Poatofllco Department,
who evidently acted in concert and
have consummated tho infamy. Ham
lin is not tlio only nscal engaged in
tho plot. ,.
WHO' PAYS THE TAXES t
In speaking of the recent salary
gliib that passed tho State Senate, the
Clearfield Republican remarks:
"This If n handsome Inoreess, but Ihelr pn7
eomrl chiefly from corporations, we Sitka 11 Bit no
objcetluoa at thla lime. '
Wo aro aw a it that tho revenues of
the State arc derived chiefly from taxes
on corporations, but does anybody sn
pose that these, in turn, do not levy
them upon the people, with n very
largo addition for collection? When
coal is taxed, as now, four cents per
ton, arc not several cents added to the
price to meet the taxation f So with
transportation, liverything thut the
farmer or manufacturer produces and
sells is taxed by the corporations if it
is carried over rnilnmds or canals, anil
so is everything that people tin-, if
brought from a distance. However
taxes may ho iiniMiscd they are finally
collected Irom tlio people. A direct
tax is least expensive and burdensome
to them, hecniiHO it costs less to collect
and being directly assessed and ap
plied, can readily lie accounted for.
Uut who can now tell how much State
tax ho annually iiavs In settling' bis
colli bills, his store purchases, or how
much less no receives tor his iirouucc

xew Hampshire: '
The Democrats havo lost tho Gov
ernor by a few hundred votes, but
they havo carried the Stato handsome
ly on tho Congressional ' Vote, and
thereby gained a Congressman.
Should tho election of a President de
volve upon the . House .New Hamp
shire will cast her vote for tho Demo
cratic nominee. Tho delegation in tho
last Congress stood two Radicals, and
on Democrat. In the next the rule
will be ravened. Tho Temperance
party sold out to tho Radicals on Gov
ernor and Assembly, and employed
the negro, Fred Douglas, to stump the
StAte in their joint interest. Tho vole
is the largest over cast In that State,
and it Is strongly suspected that Mas
sachusetts and Vermont helped their
Radical noighbors amazingly.
- Grant & Co. made a desperate effort
and they intended to havo 3,000 ma
jority. Kvcry clerk at Washington
from that Stato had a two week's fur
lough granted, and tho Stale was later
ally overrun with black and white
stumpers. Postmasters, Custom Honse
officers from Boston and Portland, to
gether with hundreds of thousands of
dollars, were sent into the State fur cor
rupt purposes ; and after all, they only
carried it by loss than 200 majority.-

PRETTY CLOSE. " .
Tho extra session of the United
State Senato has boen , prolonged
through the folly of the Radical lead
en, who eocmed determined to forco a
settlement of tho Louisiana question
in favor of Grant and Sheridan's poli
cy, although the Force bill had been
defeated, a well as to teat Pinchback.
Morton, of Indiana, who leads the
Radical hosts,' in addition to accom
plish hit Louisiaaa scheme, aiso con
tinued tho session for the purpose of
testing the temper of tho new Sena
tors, especially thoso who displaced
Cui-pcuter, Chandler, Ramsey and a
number of olhor prominent leader of
his party, and after debating tho sub
ject for two weeks he feared to put tho
question straight, so ha had a 'motion
mado to postpone tho question until
Doocmber next which resulted yea,
33 ; nay, 30, and 12 dodgers, or ab
sentees. This vote shows that tho ad
ministration Is in a decided minority
in the Senato upon tho brother-in-law
question in Louisiana. What a shame (
Kvorythlng seems to bo changed ex-'
cept Grant and his Washington ring,
Which seems dead and blind to every

missed them with the conviction that
they aro lost. Certainly, tho session
has increased the division und deepened
tho demoitilixation. There is a real
and radical difference of opinion in the
Itcpublicau party, not only upon men,
but upon measures, even upon princi
ples. All attempts to heal this differ
ence, to smother it, are failures; and
its legitimate progress to its legitimate
result is beginning to bo accepted by
the wisest leaders on both sides. Dif
ferences between currency nnd turiff,
oven between economy anil extrava
gance in administration, might be tol
erated or postponed in tho presence of
union upon a more pressing issue ; but
tho difference uiion tho more pressing
issuo thut of dealing with the South
ern question has come to bo greater
than any others; and, coupled with a
sharp difference over the head of the
Administration, as tho representative
of tho side ot that issue, has eomo to be
incxornblo and stringent.
' For it is not to be escaped that the
policy of Gen. Grant With the Southern
SUtes, and the manner in which he
has illustrated it, is the rock ubon
which the ltepnhhcnn party issplittlmr.
There are shades of dilieronco with nil,
but nearly all tho strong mcri of Hie

morally repudiate Doth the policy and
the manlier of its enforcement. Wil

Hoars, Willard, Hawley tho forty best
Kepublicans ot the llonse are more
ir-rcconciled to tho Administration on
this question than cither their speeches
or their voles hnve yet indicated. The
cnbinet, cten, might bo entered for
protestants. '
Nothing is more obvious here now
than the increased realisation and con
fession of this third-term ambition
Sinco December tho President's strange
ambition finds many more open advo
cate, much more open recognition
among Republicans than it did then.
Tho names that could be given in au
thority for tho President's pnrposo
would almost carry a convincing weight
with tho country. I think at least
filly ot the most prominent Jlepulilican
Congressmen now confess it all ot
them with sadness, most of them with
indignation. ' The cabinet and tho Su
premo Court both furnish supporters
of tho theory. - Tho Democrats all bc
lievo in it ; and, moreover, they believe
that, so tar as tho Kepiilihcan nomina
tion is concerned, tlio President will
win. On tho other hand, most of the
strenuous supporters of General Grant
and his Southern policy cithor embrace
or accept tho theory, or will not com
mit themselves upon it. A few, liko
Hcnator Jones, ot jNovada, and 11 owe,
of Wisconsin, arc infidels. They affect,
At least, to believe that ho has no third
term purpose, and they are against it
if he has. So some of his personal
friends out of politics. But tho great
bulk ot tho Grant men, pure and sim
ple, cither advocate Ins re-election,
accept it B a possiblo contingency, or
dodgo it a painful question. General
Butler, tho accepted leader of tho Presi
dential policy in tho House tor the pant
moptn, tins not oounteii uencmi umnl i
third-term ambition these two years,
ana nan already given significant token
of his willingness to support it. While
amoiiir tho rimes and iobborsVnd lob
byists, tumnorury or permanent resi
dents in the District, the contractor
and sutler following ol the H bite House
and tho departments, and all that crowd
oi cuttle-fish that circle around power,
and in wlinso company tho President
and many of his porsoual advisors havo
found too congenial associations, pro
testations are growing louder thai ho
is the only man who can auvo the
country and the party and themselves;
as many of them seem really sincere in
their belief that ho can bo re-elected.
Defeat in his only too manifest de
sire for this measure, tho question
come np : Will Gen. Grant abandon
bis., wild ambition, or seek it by the
samo agencies, so fur as ho (lures tu
employ them, or teir.e upon other
means for gratifying his desire? if
tlio theory ol the third-term purpose is
correct ut all, it is a deep desire, and
will not bo readily abandoned. The
feeling among those who thoroughly
believe in its possession of tha Presi
dent, as I havo described, is that it w ill
carry him on to rule or tho ruin of his
party; that ho will command his own
ro-eluction or forbid tho choice of anv
other Republican.

77 K A lJO VRXMENT. - -Tho
Legislature lias adjourned tiller
a sessiou of two and a half months.
While it is true that nil was not done
for tho public buiiuUt, the people of the
State may congratulate theimlvos thai
under thu limitations of thu Constitu
tion, il has passed ten times less evil
legislation than any of its predecessors
during tho dwnde. -From Ilia outset
it was determined by tho Ritdlctil mi
norily in the House that business in
1I111I be sly should bu obstructed, and
tlio Sjreuker badgered upon every oc
casion, tor tho purpose ol making 'capi
tal against the Democracy. How per
sistently the factious inuiiorlty curried,
out this idea, the published proceedings
dtow, Hut the Radicals overshot the
murk und find an ugly record against
them.
The turhiilunco of tho House, whl. h
contained a Domuuruliu majority, is
compared with the proceedings of the
Senate which contained a liudiuul ma
jority. ! or the purpose of getting up
the grounds lor this oinpurison such
men us Wolf and Uiihn were continu.
ally prccipitaliug scenes of disorder in
the House. Tho Radical idea is that
they shall profit by their own wrongs,
and make thu Deinocrutiu majority re
sponsible fur the riotous conduct of tho
leaders of tho Rndicul minority. This
might win in a community of i'ools,but
not uniuiig intelligent men. ,
1. Tho House was four time us large
as tlieSoiiato. proportionately harder to
keep under control, especially when
there w as a factious clique who set out
with the intention of creating disorder,
nnd never failed to produce it when
tho opportunity offered, und in one in-
stance at least there is tolerably strung
evidence that with arms in their hint
llltus
they defied the Speaker, and his olliceit
When tliey attempted lo restore order.
, , 2. The Semite was composed ot flfly
members, instead of two hundred, with
a minority that was neither luclinus
nor disorderly.
3. In Hiiriisluirg, us in Washington,
at tho close of the sessions, where largo
legislative bodies uro assembled mora
or less disorder prevails. Spoaker
Blaine, acknowledged to bo one of the
best parliamentarians in the country,
found it impossible to control oven his
own friends. It is hardly lo ba won
dered ot, then, that Sponkor Patterson
met with difficulties with a clique in
tho House bent upon a system of dis
organisation from the beginning. Ac
knowledging his inexperience when
elected, which it would have been follv
for him to have attempted tu conceal,
ho mado a fair presiding ofiflcur, amid
all tho predetermined irritation and
misconduct of tho minority, lie was
as lenient to tho last degree as circum
stances would admit, in tho view of
tho iingentleiuunly treatment ho re
ceived at the bands of the leader of
the opposition, whose solo mission from
tho start was to prevent tho Speaker
from fairly nnd properly discharging
tho complicated and often delicato
duties of his nflico. Theso fitclionist
wore not content with tho Spcuker's
rulings, although they were sustained
by parliamentary law, and w hen these
ruling wore sustained tv a hireo ma
jorlty of tho House, they still attempted
to override them, and these acts brought
on all or nearly nil tho disgraceful
scenes 01 the. post winter.
Against this line-of conduct on the
part of a dozen or so ot determined
disorganitor the Speaker and tho ma
jority of tho Houso were powerless,
unless iney expelled or ejected the nil
mlv momhers. Wo repeat what wo
havo said upon former occasions, thut
tins was u mistaken leniency upon the
part of Speaker Patterson. Ho should
have put theso malcontent down with
n strong hand when their object be
came apparent. If iho llonse had not
th requisite number of votes to expel
them liir their notorious conduct, it
had the power tu deprive them of the
privileges of the floor, and in our judg
ment such a policy would havo met
Willi public approval.
But Speaker Patterson and the ma
jority of the Houso chose to act with
more leniency, nnd proceed with legis
lation, subject continually to tho irrup
tion of a clique of legislative hush
w hackers, who now seek to repay that
leniency ny trying to cast tho odium
of their inexcusable misconduct upon
Speaker Patterson ami the Democratic
majority, by contrasting the disgrace
ful scone in tbo llouso with the pro-
ecetiines 111 the ricnste. We predicted
mora than two months ago that this
would be the outcome, and our predic
tion ha been verified, lint in their
extreme anxiety In cast odium upon
tho Democracy, the Radical minority
in tho llouso have only injured their
own and their party s prospects. filtt

REBELLION IX SOUTH CARO
LIXA. Grant excitement bus prevailed at
l.onimbin, tho Stato I apitol of Houth
Carolina, for ten days past. The pnb
lio plunderer who havo been robbing
that Stato for ten year passed a bill
through tho Legislature appropriating
a laruo sum of money to cancel the
floating debt, held chiefly by those who
bad passed tho lull. I he Governor
Chainherlin, vetoed the bill, and among
other things says:
Tha resiionse given by tho legisla
ture to hr efforts to enforce 'a policy
of rigid economy, has not met his ex
pectations. The passage of the Legis
lative appropriation act and an unlim
ited amount of questionable claims, nnd
tho failure to pass the bill tu reduce
salaries hove rendered it impossible fur
him to consent to add ono dollar to tho
weight ot taxation which now oppresses
tho people, and ho would regard the
aiqirovnl of this net as an act of un
pnrdonahlo injustice to all thoso whose,
interests ho is sworn to protect.
