Well, as the pop ulation of that Stato

against emigration to that benighted

Female suH'rago is still troubling
some male ladies and some female gen

editors. Soth sexes are far more orna

the Stato. Thia class of society are

That is a sensible Hoard. The

And yet, Michigauders continue to

The Next Congress. Tho Forty
fourth Congress meets at Washington
on Monday next, the Gih of December.
For the first time in eighteen years
tho House will erganizo with Demo
cratic officers. In that Interval the
Republican party bos controlled the
House for nine consecutive Congresses.
At tho beginning of the Thirty-fifth
Congress James L, Orr, of South Caro
lina (who lately, died aa Minister to
Russia), was elected as a Democratic
Speaker and served from December 7,
1850, to March 4, 1853. Ho was suc
ceeded by William Pennington, of New
Jersey, who was elected Speaker, as a
compromiso Republican, after a pro
tracted balloting and exciting contest
of nearly eight weeks, on February 1,
1859. Then came the Thirty-seventh,
or War Congress, of 18C1, which mot
on tbe 4th of July, and elected Galusha
A. Grow, of Pennsylvania. Schuyler
Colfnx, of Indiana, succeeded him for
the Thirty-eighth, Thirty-ninth and
Fortieth Congresses, and James G.
Bluine, of Maine, in turn succeeded
Mr. Colfax for tho Forty-first, Forty
second and Forty-third Congresses.
Mr. Blaine, therefore, bas the honor of
giving way to a Democratic Speaker.
The next House is overwhelmingly
Democratic. Of the 292 members, the
Democrats bare 178, the Republicans
108, and the Independent 6. . , ...
Knocked in the Head.- Tbe
"crooked" whisky trials going on at
St. Louis are making loyaldom howl.
The other day It waa considered of
sufficient importance that Mr. Constan
tino Mcgrue should sound by telegraph
a sweeping exoneration of General
Babcock, CollectorCasey, OrvilleGrant
and other intimate friends of tbe Presi
dent, from all connectiou with the
Whisky Ring. But now Gen. Boyn
ton comoe forward and spoils Megruc's
telegram by swearing before the St.
Louis jury that be is not worthy of be
lief on oatb. Silence on the part of
Mcgrue would havo bettor served tbe
cause ot his friends. "Tho Govern
ment" should have seen Gen. Boynton
and kept him off the witness stand.
The prosecution, by other witnesses,
established tbe fact that twenty thou
sand dollars were squeeaed out of tbe
St. Louis Whisky Ring in 1872 for tbe
Repnbiican campaign fund. Nothing
mora was needed to obtain tho money
than fur Joyce to whisper Iu tbe ears
of tbe unnotified distillers the mysteri
ous cabalistio word "Bab," which, for
short, means Babcock, Grant's private
Secretary.
In Limbo. Gonoral McDonald and
Joyce, two of General Grant's butties,
have been convicted at St. Louis, of
defraud Ing the Government out of hu n
dreds of thousands of dollars by their
"crooked" whisky transactions. Here
after, if the President want to "talk
horse" and lake social nips with these
modol Government officials, be must
visit them at the Missouri Penitentiary.
But then, they will soon be pardoned
out Joyce, who seeina to have been
the biggest scoundrel in tbe Whisky
Ring, plead guilty, and waa sent to
limbo at once, so that the prosecution
could not nse him as a witnoss against
the members of the Ring wbo make
their headquarters in the White House,
How exceedingly sharp! but "how

puu.0 wnere the permanent, headquar
tors of tbe Committee should be estab
lished. It is a delusion under which a
lurgu number ot persons labor, that
the Chairman of a State Committee Is
politically omnipotent, and tbat he
practically holds the result of a cam
paign in the hollow of bia band. If
tbe party Is victorious In tbe contest
to him is ascribed all tbe honor, and if
it ia defeated, at bia door Is laid all the
blame. A Chairman of a State Com
mittee Is neither all powerful nor can
be be ubiquitous. His business is
peculiarly that of organization ; but
this la net to. be effected by merely
signing, his name to lengthy and elo
quent addresses, which are usually
mora for ornament than tbr any sub
stantial use. As a party organizer,
lion. Wm. A. Wallace in b is capacity
of Chairman acbievod marked and
well-curnod distinction, owing mainly
to the fact that bo bold tbo position
for successive yours and wits not su-
fiercuded by a new und Inoxperienced
iand just when ho had acquired thor
ough knowledge of tho work he was
selected to perfbrm. For this ame
reason, John G. Thompson, Esq., who
for many years has boen the Chairman
of the Democratic Stute Committee of
Ohio, is perhaps tbe most efficient or
ganiser in the country. He is bold
and aggressive and possesses untiring
industry, and bis name is as laminar

bold words. But after all is said, the
work of organization rests mainly witb
tho Chairman of the different County
Committees, and tbia for many cogent
reasons which which will readily sug-
gost themselves. A Chairman of a
ounty Committee, if he is an active,
energetic man, and Is supplied with
only a moderate amount of funds to
be expended for purely legitimate pur
poses, can accomplish wonders. The
Chairman of the State Committee may
advise and counsel with him, but still
the effective work must be done by
himself and others whom he may sum
mon to bis aid. Our well settled con
viction Is, that the Chairman of the
State Committee should be appointed
by the Committee itself, and not by
the Stuto candidates, as bas been the
practice for some years, and that he
ought never to be elected by tbe State
convention. Many reasons for this
exist, but we have neither time nor
space to givo them in detail. Wo are
equally well satisfied tbat tho head
quarters of the Committee should be
at Harrisburg, and that there ought
to be a spfrial Chairman appointed by
the Committee exclusively to super
vise the organization and perfect the
party machinery in Philadelphia, with
bis headquarters in tbat city. Of
course he should be a resident there
a man of positive qualities, well ac
quainted with tbe prominent and ac
tive men of the party and who enjoys
its entire confidence. What satisfac
tory results can be accomplished in
Philadelphia by a Chairman from an
other part of the Bute, no matter how
able and competent' be may be, we
confess we never could comprehend.

Hon. William H. Witte, editor and
proprietor of the Philadelphia Common
vxaUh, died in tbat city on Friday last,
aged 67 years. He waa the leading
tump speaker in thia country. He
was able and could make a speech In
German aa well as in tbe English
language. He addressed the Democ
racy of tbia county on several occasions,
and will be remembered by many of
our readers who will regret to hear of
bia death. An exchange says : .
"Mr. Witte was a native of Morris
county, New Jersey, and was born in
May, 1818. In 1840, be went to Phila
delphia, and entered mercantile life.
Subsequently he failed, but by success
ful land operations be afterwards accu
mulated enough to honorably discharge
all the debts due at tbe time of bia
mercantile failure. He was an aclivo
Democrat, and in 1852 waa elected by
tbat party to Congress, in which be
served one term, liia subsequent as
piration was to be Governor of Penn
sylvania, and in 1857 he sought the
Democratic nomination, but was beaten
by the late Governor Wm. F. Packor.
He again Bought the nomination in
1860 and 1863, but was Beaton. In
1864 Mr. Witte presided over the Dem

delegates to the Chicago Convention.

the new Postoffice in Philadelphia will

funds left to purchase additional stone
and other materials ueccisary to the
structure, and barely sufficient to con
tinue work on the building after the
resumption in tho spring. Unless a
special appropriation be made, and

Tbeso two well known revivalists

waa an unusually early boar ol tbe
Sabbath day for l'hiladelphians to turn
out, , yet, notwithstanding .the rain
poured dowa in torrent, and tbe wind
blew bitterly from the north aast, a
congregation of 10,500 people met to
welcome them, At tbe afternoon
meeting about 15,000 persons crowded
into th building and 35,000 more had
the door closed against them., , That
there is a revival needed here, there caa
be no doubt ; that an interest has been
awakened in all the Evangelical
churches of this city ia evident, and
that much good will result from those
religious services, is inevitable.
1 or a week previous to th eoming

editor of our city waa botielessly affect

their papers the contagion spread to

tb portraits oi M. and 9. were placed,
and for 10 dava orior to the betrinninor
of tbe work of revivication, a choir of,
boo ladie and gentlemen met to proo
tloe for tbe great occasion j these latter
represented almost every Protestant
Christian church in Philadelphia; all
the things, witb th reputation that
preceded the coming of Hanky, of bia
being the most renowned baritone

them out. During his long lifetime he
managed bis proprrty witb grenl sa

in real estate greatly increased its
value. While ytit a young man he
married Mis Armstrong, a daughter
of tbe General Armstrong wbo waa

of Madison. The family now consist
of three sons and two daughters, one
daughter having died some time ago.
Mr. Astor was chiefly distinguished
on account of his enormous wealth,
