Tho student of current events for

"The (juorillns of tho Gospol" receive
some attention on our first page. These
olerical tramps are bringing disgrace
upon civilization, and the step taken
by the Missouri Legislature ia in the
1 right direction.
Judge Dean, of the Blair, Cambria,
and Huntingdon Diitrict, again settles
the fact that a Postmaster ia disquali
fied by the Constitution from holding
any State office. See bis ruling on

Wallace Ahead. An exchange
aayi : "Senator Wallace can now ap
peal to the "Solid South" on the ground
that his resolution adopted by the Sen-
ate was the first to strike down, if not
a war. at least a war time measure.
A Rebel Outbade. We notice that
tho State ot Georgia has just disposed
of a large four per cent, loan to bor
own citizons without tho expenditure
ol a penny in the way of advertising
or commissions. Up here, a Sydicato
would have charged a large sura for
the negotiation.
The stalwart organs accuse tli
Democrats of the Senate of the inten
tion to "steal" Mr. Kellogg's seat. That
cat bos already been stolen. Pretty
fellows they are to charge their neigh
bora witb stealing seats, while it has
been the chiei business of the Radicals
for sixteon years, Iron President

Dismiss Him. From tho figure be
tints bclore the Legislative Committee
we advise the Superintendent of the
Publio Grounds, Col. Uarlshorne,
look after his deputy, Jesse R. Craw

be compromised In that kind of a man
ocr by any individual member of the
party. We know that such eonduct
is fashionable with the Radicals, but we
cannot afford it, no difference bow high
they fly in tha party. No more
such stuff in oars.
Cbuiadivo. The godly editorof the
Philadelphia Prut is waging a vigor

producing bis editorials of twenty years

old political grannies who still fear Jeff

of berocs avoided Jeff during 1861 to

THE DEM OCR A TIC PL AX.
Tho Washington correspondent of
the rhiiiuklphiii Record of the 1st in
slant tells it in this way : ' Tho Demo
cratic conlurenco oomiiiillcu of the two
Ilouao hud no difficulty to duy in de
ciding what should bo dune next, in
view of the President's message. A
session of an hour and a half thia af
ternoon, after the House adjourned,
settled the business, and tbo l'rusiduut
will have an opuprtunity to say, with
out any "ifs" or "ands," whotber be isjin
favor of t vdural bayonets at the polls.
Tho coulerenco decided to formuluto
the Cth section of the army bill into a
Boparato bill, to strike out the word
"civil officers," so that the bill cannot bo
possibly constrned to mean tha prohi
bition of anything but the presence ot
armed soldiers at the polls, and in this
shape to send it to the President as
soon as it can be passed, i t was decid
ed not to debate the matter further in
the House, but to demand the previ
ous question at once and to have a vote
as soon as possible. In the Senate it
was decided to allow two days' debate
and then sit it out if the Republicans
show a disposition to fillibustur. Dur
ing these two days it is proposed to
discuss the veto message pretty vigor
ously, and show up the weakness of the
President's position. With reference
to the legislative bill, it was decided to
be expedient for the Senate Democrat
to go on and pass it in its present shape,
ut not until tuo Bixlh section of the
army bill shall hsvo been passed as a
separate measure. This discission of
the conference committee will be sub
mitted to a Democratic caucus cf each
House, to be held separately to mor
row afternoon, and will undoubtedly
bo ratified. If the President shall veto
the legislative bill, as bo undoubtedly
will, tbore is no doubt the political
olauses in that bill will then be re-enacted
as a separate measure, and the
Prosidont given an opportunity to re
cord bis sentiments separately and dis
tinctly on the subject of the test oath
and tho partisan supervisors ; but this
matter wag not decided at the confer
ence to-day. It was broached, but
Sonator Tburman said at once that
Congress bad no right to assume that
the President would veto any bill, and
it would bo vory bad policy to discuss
what they would do until the veto was
a fact and the question before them.
The general sontimont ot the Demo
crats was well oxprossed to-day by
Sonator McDonald, who said that the
Domocrats did not propose to discuss
those questions any faster than they
came up ; that as fast as thoy did
come up thoy wore abundantly able to
sottle them ; that the talk of starving
the Government was nonsonse, and
that lie had sunt for his summor
clotbos. In other words, tho Demo
crats will not decido what thoy will do
about the appropriation until the Pres
ident has bad a chance to go squarely
on record on eaoh of the separate pro
positions without any quibbling. The
worse cases of lying on record were
some of tho dispatches about tbo cau
cus of the Senate Democrats yesterday.
A very minute account was published
In the Washington Hi-publican this
morning, and telegraphed off last night,
of a blood and thunder speech made by
Senator Voorbecs, which waasorovolu
tionary in its sentiment that the Dom-
ocrats dared not let It get oat. Voor-
heea himself nailed the lie in the Sonate
to-day by quietly remarking that he
was not present at the caueus at all.
As a matter of fact, that the caucus
was very quiot, and not balf as impor
tant in any sense as to-day's confer
ence The fbeling among the Demo
crats of both Houses to-day is excel
lent, and the more they consider tho
position the President has taken, the
more willing tbey are to go to the peo
ple on tbo issue raised. It Is certain
to-night that the President will either
have to concede what the Democrats
ask or declare squarely in favor of bay
onets at the polls, tba test oath and
partisan Federal Supervisors."
The Difference. Over in Indiana
county thoy have three Radical Judges
on the Bench. There has not been a
Democrat made Foreman of the Grand
Jury for eighteen years, and it is an
accident when a Domocrat is appoin
ted a Tipstaff or put on a road view.
That is the way the Radicals manage
tboir local affairs over there. Hero in
Clearfield, where we have three Demo
cratic Judges, more than ball the road
viewors appointed within tho past five
years have"becn Radicals. Evory now
and then one of tbo same kind ia made
Foreman of the Grand Jury, and near
ly halt of the Tipstaffs are Radicals,
some of whom advocated the hanging
of Democrats a tun years ago. Some
Democrats may favor this kind ot par
ty conduct on tbo part of their agont.
but we do not, and we want it stopped
in this county. Over in Indiana thoy
can do aa tbey pleaeo, the Democrats
cannot help themselves, but here It is

Deputy United Btatea Marshals wbo
helped the Radicals last November to

eral states that the wholo number ap
pointed was 6,494 about one fourth

These satraps woro mostly piled into

tricts witb orders in every instance to
do all they could to defeat the Demo
cratic nominees. Thirty Radical Con.

SAMPLE LEGISLATION.
From what Is transpiring at Hnrris
burg, the depravity of our Legislature
coin to he total Hclour we give as
a sample of what is oocuring .in the
Capitol. The cominittoo ot investiga
tion, appointed to look after tho fraud
practiced to pass bill No 103, is develop-
ing some wonderful things, as witness
thefullowing: "B. W. Duvis, of Phila
dolphin., took tho slund and to the reg
ular questions gave a decided "no."
He ttcd that his name bad boon used
by witnesses in connection with bill
103, but that subsequent witnesses had
completely refuted tho testimony. Ah
far as any witnesses to como were
ooncerncd be would Bay most emphat
ically that any use of bis name was un
authorized ; that he had never been
authorized by any persons to act for
tbem in the matter and had never boon
guilty of any corrupt practices in re
gard to the riot bill.
Spoaker Long questioned, the wit
ness.
"Did 1 over intimate to you in any
way that if I wore oloctod Speaker you
should be made Chairman of the ways
and meaus committee ?"
"You never did, sir. 1 will say, how
ever, that another man did."
Speaker Long "I demand the name
of that man."
Mr. Davis "llis name is George V.
Hall, of Philadelphia."
A "no" was then given to tho inter
rogatories by Messrs. Doyle, Klliot, !
muth, Coi-runec, Kborly, Hitler and
j:idred.
C. II. Foster, of Lehigh, then step
ped upon the witness stand and testi
fied as follows : One evoning sometime
ago D. C. Clark, of Philadelphia, came
to witness and asked him to see if be
could vole for bill 103. Witness said
he' would consider it Later Clark
told him there was 1300 in the bill and
took him to Salter and loft him. Sal
tor also told witness there were $300
in the bill, but witnoss refused to vote
for It, because ho said there woro too
many "snakes" in it. Three weeks
lator Salter told him that a meeting
junt bold in Philadelphia the price had
been raised to f 500, and both Salter
and Clark advised him to take the
money, fn March Sailor called wit
ness out of the bouse and took him
to soo Kemble at the Brady House.
When alone with the latter he looked
at Kombloand Kemble eyed him "from
the brow of the head to the solo of his
too."
"Kemble said, "How are you on bill
103J"
Witness "I can't vote for it on ac
count of article 7 of tho constitution."
Komble "Then I don't want any
thing to do with you."
Witnoss "Oh, I guess you nro ono
of them roosters like Sam Josephs. Ex-
members tell mo he promises lots ot
money but nover pays." Kemble then
said, "Ob, if you don't believe it here's
tho money" $1,000. I don't want to
pay you for your vote. I want to pay
for your work," Witness however re
fused all offer and left Mr. Kembla to
bis meditations.
Foster stated in concluding his tes
timony that these men bad followed
him like blood bounds following a door,
but he had always refused tbem. Mr.
Clark then questioned the witness, but
the result was only a flat contradiction
by each of tho other's testimony.
After Messrs. Provens and Kincaid
had been called and no more evidence
obtained, Mr. Clark again took the
stand and repeated bis assertions that
he bad never made, nor been authoriz
zed to make, any corrupt advances to
any living man.
Tho committee, after deciding td in
sist that Mr. Chris. Magee shall pro
duce all the chocks in his possession
at the next mooting, adjourned to meet
again Tuesday evening.

A NUT JOHX A. LOGAN CAN'T

The following affidavit, published in
tbe Columbus, Ohio, Democrat and re.
published in tbo Youngstown, Ohio,

nut which John A. Logan cannot
crack, even witb bis well-known chin-
power :

sentted tbe district in Congress, was
the chief person wbo raised said army
and persuaded me to join the same ;
that said Logan accompanied ns (about
soventy in number) in the night part
of the way from Williamson county to
Paducab, the place designated for os
to cross the river, w e crossed at 1 a-
ducab, according to John A. Logan's
mstruetions, to evaue union troops,
which, be stated, were stationed at
Cairo. Wben Logan loft, he agreed to

PATRIOTIC COWARDS.
This heading is a seemingly contra
dictory ono, but no other expresnion
at the proM'iit presents itself that con
veys so well what we wish to say.
During tho lute wur hetwuin the
Status there were great numbers on
gentlemen who were always on band
to urge other men to enter the servile
of their country, but they were care
ful to remain out of danger. These
are the men to bo found in ull of the
States, both North and South. In the
Nerth thoy woro full of blood thirsty
speeehes against the South, but found
Canada a pleasant country about tho
time a draft was to bo made, and tboir
class in the South wore their equals In
bloody threats against the North, but
managed to pay a visit to their friends
in Cuba or some otlior friendly coun
try. These patriotiu cowards were
bold to make money, provided the sol
diers would protect tbem. They did
not want tbo war to end while they
could make money out of it. After
the war was over, these men began to
look out for olllco and It is painful to
be compelled to confess that many of
them, by the uso of their money found
easy places from which they have add
ed woulth to their already largo bank
accounts. These are the men who are
constantly talking about the danger of
a Solid South and a Solid North.
Thoy are ready to havo another fight,
provided their neighbors will go to tbo
front and allow tbem to remain at
home us they did in the last war. It
is a fact worthy of notice that the men
who did the fighting in tbo lust war
aro not the men who are alarmed when
either of the political parties meet
with defeat Tho hoys in blue and
the boys in gray are not calling for
more blood. Tbey aro not cowards,
and they accept the war as final be
tween tho North and the South and
ask that old issues bo forgotten. TlioBo
soldiers are men willing to live as
brothors and stand as one man against
all foes to the Union of tho States, and
to uphold and defend the old flag. It
is porbaps not generally known, but it
is truo nevertheless, that the members
of Congress who served in cither army
are not the men who are constantly
talking about the injustico of the North
and of the South. Men who have been
on the battlefield are not specially anx.
ions to bring on another wur, nor are
they unwilling to trust each other. If
tho patriotic cowards would learn to
remain silent there would bo no dan
ger of one seotion dominooring over
any other section. Wo do not hear
such men as General Joseph E. John
ston of the Confederate army and Gen
eral bherman ot the Union army
threatening each other, nor do thoy
distrust each otlior, but you can boar
the cry of tho patriotic coward from
all quarters saying that ono section is
trying to get advantage of tho other.
Brave men never fear to ti ust brave
men. We nover receive letters from
the men who woro tho blue threatening
the men who wore the gray. These
men believe that the war is over aud
ask that the whole people shall be one
nation of loyal citizens. Those wbo
have suffered are satisfied. Let us
have peaoe." Tht Citizen &Adier,
Despotic Power. There can ho no
question about it. Tbe Radical lead
era are wielding all the power they
possess inside aud outside of Congress
for a strong military government
cotemporary says: Now it appears
that "Congress is coorcing the Presi
dent" again. The "coercion" this lime
doesn't result lrom the arrungemont of
topics in a bill, but from tho order in
which bills are to bo considered. It is
squarely asserted in a leading Repub
liean nowspapcr that, as Congress was
called in extra session to pass appro
priation bills, it cannot with propriety
or doconcy do anything moro nor loss
than to pass such bills and go homo
and furthor, that to bold back the ve
toed army appropriations until anoth
er matter is sent to the White Uoubo
ia a clear case of attempting to "coerce
the President." It would bo a waste
of timo to treat such stuff aud non
sense seriously, but it is well tor tbo
pooplo to understand that the mon
arcbial powers clamed for Mr. Hayes
by his party organs and the insignifi
cant position assigned to the law-mak
Ing power is the Radical creed.
Kxpeniment a Little. Tho New
York Tribune thinks that "if one gon
unio and woll authenticated Repentant
Robot would now consent to exhibit
himself tbe country might Credit tho
South with some possibilities of broad
and non soctional patriotism." Well
try Postmaster General Koy. Or if
be will not do, bow would Mosby servo
for such an exhibition ? Sectionalism
is odious but one Radical Senator or
Member of Congress Injects more sec
tionalism in one month, into the debates
of those two bodies than all tho "Brig
adiers" do in six months. The sec
lionalism of the northern members is
infamous. If thoy lovo the Union why
do thoy not practice that which will
perpetuate it instead of adopting
policy that if practically carried out
mnst ruin tbo Republic. The Ameri
can who preachos sectionalism is not
honest with himself or his oountry.

TEttKD THE BUCHANAN OAU1NZT.
York, April 28, 1879.
To tbo editor of Tkt Timi.
An obituary sketch of General Dix,
published in tbe New York Times, says
that President Buchanan was pressod
to appoint bim Secretary of the Treas
ury by "large delegations of leading
capitalists and Democrats fiom Now
York." This is not so. Mr. Buchan
an was moved to make tbe appoint
ment by bis personal friendship and
bis oonfidunce in General Dix's fidelity
to principles of honest constitutional
government Only one person men
tionod the namo of General Dix before
tho place w&s tendered to bim. The
talk about "lanre delegations" from
New York is purely fictitious.
Genoral Dix responded in the moat
affectionate manner. He not only took
tbe portfolio that was offered bim, but
accepted the President's invitation to
live at his house at Washington while
be held office there. In all their ingo
ngs and outcomings, public anil pri-
vuto, the harmony of these two mon
was absolutely unbrokon, Tbey never
ditferod in opinion on any administra
tive question, nor did either of th.im
find fault with any public act of the
otbor.
Yet the eulogy maker in the New
York ?Yte says "it- was the threat of
Secretaries Dix, Stanton and Holt to
immediutoly resign that prevjtited
President Buchanan ordering Mujor
Anderson bock from Sumter to Moul
trio," and adds the statement that
thereupon Floyd resigned and went
South, where jbe belonged." This is
utterly false. So fur as General Dix
is concerned it cannot be trne, because
be was not in the Cabinet when Major
Anderson's removal was discuBsod. Ho
came in after all questions connected
with tbat subject bad been finally set
tled after the President's refusal to
giro up Fort Sumter had been notified
to the South Carolina Commissioners
after their insolent letter in reply
had boon seut back and after Floyd's
resignation. General Dix had nothing
whatever to do witb any ot those af
fairs and never said a word about tbem,
except as things of the past, properly
acted and done before his time.
Messrs. Stanton and Holt were mem
bers of the administration when the
President refused to order Major An
demon back. But they did not prevent
such order by threatening to resign
Neither of them ever threatened tbe
Prosidont witb resignation at any time
or for any cause, tbon or before or af
terwards. To make this contradiction
lull it is necessary to add that Floyd
went "South whore he belonged," not
bocanseofanytblngdoneorsaid by eith
er of his colleagues, but because tbe
President himself demanded his resig
nation for certain financial mismanage
ment of his department.
This is ore of tbe fragments of an
old story long ago exploded. It la
known to all tolerably well-informed
persons to be absolutely inconsistent
with the truth. Tbe insertion ot it in
this posthumous biography of General
Dix makes it doubtful whether Carlyle
waa right or not when be said "no lio
can live forever. At all events, il
proves that this one is bard to kill.
It is quite impossible to believe
that General Dix, in his lifetime, ever
authorized this canard. He was a
gentleman of perfect veracity and stai n
less honor, who kept himself immeas
urably above the meanness of trying
to swoll his own importance by such a
paltry invention.

on tbe 18th of April, by virtue of
which the state of terrorism in Russia
was created, has already been publish
ed. Nevertheless tbe last sections are
of such importance, as showing tbo
tremendous power given to the Dis
trict Governors, that they are worth
reproducing :
Tho Governor General shall be em
powered to subject all civilian to mar
tial law, and to adjudgo, such punish
ments aa are prescribed during tbe
maintenance of martial law in addition
to the cases indicated in the nkase of
the 9th 21t of August last, and tor
other offenses against the stale and
administrative ordor; as also for the
commission of other orimoa which are
provided for by tho criminal laws,
when they shall deem it expedient to do
so with a view of protecting general
order and security. In cases of this
nature the Governors General shall ex
orcise the same powers as ate provided
for in respect of Commander-in-Chief
in tbe field by paragraphs 1,234, 1,238
and 1,241 oftbe twonly fourth volume
of Martial Law, promulgated In 18C9.
This order is to bo applied to all caaos
of offender who havo not yot been
tried.
The Governors-General shall pos
sess the following powers; (a) To
remove by administrative process out
of their district all suoh pontons wKote
pretence therein they consider pernicioyu.
(b) To arrett at their dixsretion all per
tons of whatsoevor condition or rank
wben they deem It necessary to do ao.

CABINET CONGRESSMAN.
Senator Pendleton, of Ohio, has in
troduced a bill in the United Slates
Sonuto, giving tho members of tbe
President Cabinet seats on the floor of
the House. A similar position is occu
pied by tb British Ministry. Wheth
er the Senator' proposition would be
an improvement on tbo prosont sys
tem, we are unable to say. IT none
but good men were made Cabinet Min
isters, it might work woll enough, but
when such fellows as Belknap, Kolnn
son, etc, get there, it would bo hotter
for morality and tho Union that they
bo kept out of doors not allowed to
contaminate the Halls ol Congress.
Mr. Pendleton, in addressing the
Senate on subject, among other things,
said :
"The parliamentary history of En
gland is the chief glory of the Anglo
Suxon race. It is the history of tree
dora, the history of tbe amelioration ol
the evils ol barbarism and the substi
tution of the blessings ol tbo greatest
liberty and the least law. It is tho
history of Magna Charta, the potition
rights, the bill of rights, tho great re
monstrance, the habcat cvr)U., the
statutes of treason, tbe oxtention of
suffrage. It is tbe history of Strafford
bohoadod. of Clarendon banished, of
Danby imprisoned, of Oxford commit
ted to tho towor, of Bolinbroko and
Ormond attained, of Bute disgraced,
of North driven from power. It is tbe
history of Kouiers and Russell and
Boilingliroke and Walpolo mid Town
shend and Chatham and rox and
Burke and Pitt and Sheridan and Can
ning and Brougham and Peel Glad
stone and Bright and Disraeli. It is
the history of those immortal victories
in the great struggle of liberty against
prerogative, of the rights ot the indi
vidual against the power of tbe com
munity, whose glories will shine re
spondent with undimmed brilliancy
whon Co-ur do Lion and tho Black
Princo and Marlborough and Welling
ton will have boon forgotten. Whose
heart doos not thrill at the thought of
Parliament ? And tbe chief causo of
its transcendent influence was that It
opened tbo dark doors of ministerial
cabinets; that it exposod to broad day
the connection of the crown and com
mons ; that il substituted for tbe bid
den corruption which bought votes tbe
open influence ot intelligence, charac
ter, information, intellect, argument,
and thus stimulated at once its own
and the nation's aspiration for a larger
liberty and a purer life."
WORTH T OF IMITATION.
We learn that an organisod effort
has bocn entered into by tho Radical
leaders, to put tbat most infamous of
all Radical journals tbe New York
Tribune into universal circulation.
Tboir scheme is to furnish all Post
masters gratis witb bundles of thorn,
and have them solicit their neighbors
to subscribe for it If tbey are met
with a refusal, then the government
agent, as an inducement, offer to give
the paper for balf price, and, its a last
effort, they offer tor it three months for
Ueenty five cents. This i for the pur
pose of getting tbe names and post
office address of thousands of voters, so
that tbe Congressional Committee can
stuff thorn with Radical documents
from now until tb next Presidential
oloction. Of course somebody pays tbe
Tribune people in cash for the liberal
discount they make on their journal.
Why cannot the Democrats imitate
these Radical patriots ? Of course we
could not utilise the Postmasters, hut
there are hundreds of other who
could be used for the same purpose in
evety school district in tba State.
Will the enemy be met in its own
field of warfare? That is the ques
tion I
T"hev Must be Blind. Somebody
long ago made tho remark : "They
have eye but they see not ar but
they hear not." Such seems to be the
case with Gon. Garfield and his class of
Radical politicians, who, a year or so
ago made great SKrt ot Hondrick B.
Wrighl's proposition, to provide money
to settlo the unemployed and needy
mechanics and laborers of the North
on tho publio lands. We don't know
but tbey were oorreot in opposing the
Wright bill, for it proposed duties for
the government foreign to its pur
poses but Garfield is now on hand
with a bill for a large appropriation in
aid of the colored emigrant flocking
to Kansas. If it oomos to devoting
public money to purpose of this char
acter we shall insist that no distinction
bo made botweon the races. A poor white
man has just as much right to this
sort ot government aid as a poor negro.
Why them white men are always
traduoing their own raoo for the par
pose of forming an alliance witb tb
African is a mystery to us. Philan
thropy demands the reverse. Yet,
they claim to ba honest men,

THE VETO.
' Senator Bock seems to express a
vory correct appreciation of tho veto
wheu be says : ;'
t am great!' aarpriaed that tho PreildaaL la
lew of hla owa ura while a member of Ooa
greaa end of hla paat eonduet la political and IB
rlew olale oabiaal oSlcera and their paat oplalena
ehould veto a hill like Ihla after kalng adrooa
led and rotod lor hllla ee oaooB aaara objeotloa
ablelhin thlaeae. If the Hieue arthle l aloa
aro eot eumpetent to keep their owa peaoe at tba
polla the areeot It le be Huaea.
That portion oftbe veto wbioh is
directed to the subject of tacking leg
islutire measures upon appropriation
bills comes with a poor grace lrom a
man who. as a momtior ol i,ongros,
voted for the same thing, and whose
council of state havo nearly all teen
defenders and abettor of tbo practice.
Wbalever their viewa oil tbo subject
may be worth abstractly, they will bo
heard with little natience in their pres
ent application on this account, and
will be taken as a partisan suoicnuge
that does not get Mr. Hayes and his
cabinot out of the scrap into which
their past record plunge tbem.
II llr. Hayes does noi propose to
use the army, or ia unable to use it in
a way to justify the Domooratio appre
hension, then he would bave baa Hom
ing to lose of partisan advantage or
official diiriiitv bviieninir tbe bill and
assuring the oountry of the complete
innocence of his and his party's de
signs. If be intends no practical ubo
ot the provisions ot tbo law wuicu en
ables bim to use tho army for political
purposes, why object to the formal ro
pcul of tho luw ? He is advisod by a
friendly journal, the New York liven
ing Post, that, in this view of the case,
by consenting to its repeal he would
have strengthened bis position, would
bave conformed to a sentiment which
is as clearly proper as it is distinctly
popular, would have quieted the couu
try, would bave enabled himself to re
sist more effectually measures of actual
coercion by Congress, aud would have
put bia party in a belter situation by
makiug this concession.
That Mr. Hayes should retuso to
sign a repeal ol anything so harmless
as be makes out tbe obnoxious laws
to be, and that his party should so
strenuously oppose the repeal, have
given the oountry a fear that tbey are
ol serious import, and public sentiment
now more emphatically man ever ao
mands tboir repeal. How that repeal
shall be accomplished is a secondary
matter, but it does not lio with ilr.
Hayes to say that it shall not be done
in the way which be and his party so
long approved and practiced. jmh

A Democratic Rough Rider. "Let
me introduce you to Gov. Wbiteaker,
of Oregon, the great American travel
er," said Hon. 8. S. Cox yesterday, as
he presented The Post to the gentle
man named.
"Governor didn't you feel nervous
riding so fast ?" asked the Post.
"No; I was determined to get here
in time to help elect a Democratic
speaker. Every time we changed con
ductors the new one would come to
me and ask if I was willing to travel
at that speed. 1 told them to go just
as fast as tbey cbooso ; that I was as
well prepared to go to Heaves then as
I ever would be, and so 1 took il easy."
"llbw camo the telegrams notifying
you lo come to be delayed so ?"
"The wires were down in every di
rection, and lor three day telegraphic
communication was cut off. When I
got the notice I started at once. In
less than ten minute I was on my way
to Washington, without so much as a
change of linen."
A Rost Consul. The Norristovn
Herald, ol the 28th, ult, contained a
letter from the wife of an Amorican
missionary in China, which gives somo
account oftbe conduct of Col. Mosby,
our new consul at Hong Kong. She
says bis conduct is outrageous tbat
be don't know how to treat people with
decency, and that at the table ho puts
his napkin to lha use intended for tbe
pocket handkerchief. Now, if he were
only a Democrat what a how I would
go up. We are astonished tbat the
respectable Herald has not a word of
reproof of such boorish conduct We
hope the Herald don't forget tbat he
was a "rebel." Exchange. This is tb
celebrated Shenandoah Valley bush
whacker, so well known to oar soldiers
during the war, whom Hayes sent to
China to represent "tbe loyal millions "
II that Missionary's wife don't look out
the Colonel will "bush-whack" her.
The Noble Horhe. Quite an ex
citement baa been created among the
admirers ol fast horse in this country,
on account at tho recent achievements
of tho Amorican running horse, "Pa
role," in England. He has won throe
races in succession, on Kpsom Downs,
at the recent maetingg there, the last
being the Metropolitan stakes. For
this race forty-two horse were enter
ed, but only ono besido "Parole" star
tod, "Casllo-ioagh," an Knglish borse.
Tbe distance run was about two miles
and a quarter, and was made in 4
minute and 43 seconds. The race was
run in tbe rain, and the track was
heavy. Il is said that Mr. Lorillard,
tbe ownor of "Parolo," has purchased
thirteen more horses of the same breed.
Kentucki in The FiaLD.-Dr, Luke
P. Blackburn, ot Louisville, has been
nominated by acclamation as the
Democratic candidate for Gov. ol Ken
tacky, The nomination is, of course,
equivalent, in that sterling Democratic
State, to an election. Dr. Blackburn is a
brother of Hon. Jo. S. C. Blackburn,
now in Congress. Dr. Blackburn lelt

a laud played one of our national aire, while tba

This will be nothing to the reoeption
ho will got at Sun Francisco, wben tho
25 roosters of the Pennsylvania Leg
islature will go out there to greet him.
Then there will be a display ot high
toned manner.
The Secretary ot the Common wealth,
Quay, and ex State Treasurer, Kern
file, are certainly specimen bricks ol a
very corrupt character, if tbe oaths of
Radical members of the Legislature
amounts to anything. The latter holds
no office, but the former should resign.
We have very little respect for a mati
wbo disgraces himself' only; bnt we
bave far lea for the scoundrel wbo
compromise and disgraces his constit
uents and continues lo draw bis pay
out of the publio Treasury.

This now aottles the question. The
Radical party is now committed to the
doctrine of couduting elections under
army regulations, and therefore oppos
