A National Convention of the Re
bublican party will meet at Chicago,
Wednesday, the 2d of June, next, for
nomination of candidates to be sup
ported for President and Vice Presi
dent at the next election. Republi
cans and all who will co-operate with
them in supporting the nominees of
the party, are invited to choose two
delegates from each Congressional
district, four at-large from each State,
two from each Territory and two from
the District of Columbia, to represent
them in the convention.

Sherman rod Blaine.
Washington, March 19. General
Groevenor of Ohio, one of the most
prominent Republican politicians in
the State, has been in Washington for
three or four days, during which time
he has dined with Secretary Sherman,
Senator Blaine and other leading Re
publicans. His visit is ostensibly a
social one, but little doubt Is felt that
the real object waa to secure an under
standing between the friends of
Blaine and Sherman, by which the
former will make uo effort to secure
.Ohio for the Maine Senator on con
dition that Sherman's delegates to
Chicago shall be for Blaine as second
choice. The most candid of Sherman's
friends admit that rf the Blaine men
should try to carry the Ohio conven
tion it would take very hard work to
hold K for the secretary of the Treas
ury. But Sherman, of course, could
not continue in the field if his own
State did not at least appear to sup
port him, and, as the Blaine men
consider it essential to Grant's defeat
that Sherman should remain a candi
date, it may be considered settled that
there will be no open opposition to
him in his own State.
Hon. Adolph Puntz has been nom
inated for President by a German pa

suggests Carl Schurz for the other end
of the ticket, arguing that Pauts and
Bchurz would go well together.
Bishop Simpson says that the four
great powers of the earth are the
United Rtatea. Grant, Rrltain nwnun

Christ Is recoginized as an authority

wad domestic organization.
The Rev. Mr. Imlock, of Murroes,
tr AS a
Dcouana, was an aoie man, but a
very absent-minded one, and once
in a public service of considerable im
portance, he spoke of all ranks and
degrees of persons "from the king on
the dunghill to the beggar on the
throne ;" but, suspecting rather than
perceiving the mistake, he proceeded
instantly to amend his error by say
ing "No, my friends, I mean from
the beggar on the throne to the king
on the dunghill."
Kentucky has a new Sunday law
which was enforced for the first time
last week. The good people of Frank
ford were unused to and unprepared
for such a thing, and the result was
that they bad to do without bread,
meat, milk, cigars, tobacco and beer,
and the men who needed shaving were
obliged to have the barbers attend
them at home. As a local paper said,
it was a Puritanical blue-law day,
such as was known in Connecticut
when It was a punishable offence to kiss
your wife on Sunday.

Washington Letter.
. Praia rar regular Correspondent.)
Washington, D. C, March 22, 1880.
Both houses of Congress are ' get
ting warmed tip In their work, and
are making things lively for politi
cians generally. The Senate Election
Committee created quite a flutter of
excitement among all our nation-savers
by their declaration that Senator
Kellogg'e aeat was vacant, and that
Spoffbrd Is legally entitled thereto.
The Republicans I nsist that such action
Is revolutionary In its tendency, aud
portends serious future trouble, since
Intended as one of the means by which
the Democrat candidate for President
may be counted in next spring, whether
legally elected or not In November.
Kellogg never was elected; that this
action is strictly iu Accordance with
right and Justice, and that the people
will next fall sustain ft when the
facta are properly put before them.
At any rate, nothing has occurred In
the Capitol this winter which has In
duced more outside discussion ' and
debate than this move. Mr. Kellogg
and his friends claim that Senator
Hill, who pressed the matter to a vote,
was actuated by personal rather than
party motives, and inteuded it to di
vert publlo attention from himself in
the Raymond scandal. Whether this
assertion be true or untrue. Senator
Hill has certainly stirred up a hornet's
nest in attacking Mrs. Belva Lock-
wood. Our recent prediction that he
would regret his action has been fully
verified, for she is after him with all
the fury of a "woman scorned."
Though he tries to ease her blows
with charges of attempted blackmail
falsifier eta., she is terribly persistent
and the end is not yet. She publicly
accuses him of seducing young girls
and of being a bad fellow generally,
and no one doubts she will have the
last word, whatever he may say and
do in the future. She undoubtedly
acted in good professional faith in fil
ing a bill in the courts against him
for Miss Raymond, as the evidence
to sustain her on this point is indis
putable. Miss Raymond's denial of
ever having charged the Senator with
seducing her is unwarranted under
the facts; yet there Is no evidence, be
yond her own allegations, that her
charges had the slightest foundation
in fact. But the endeavors to saddle
all responsibility for her statement
upon Mrs. Lockwood was unfortunate
as it puts her, not Miss Raymond, in
the category of shyster and black
mailer. She, therefore, as a purely
personal matter, has gone into a fight
against him with all her ability and
aroused woman's ire, which will, to
say the last, be an unpleasant one to
him before she gets through with him
as she can throw dirt equal to any
male lawyer at the bar. One of the
sequences of this quarrel has been the
introduction of a bill into the House
to prevent blackmail. Notwithstand
ing the need of a stringent statute up
on this matter, yet this bill will not
now become a law, for it will meet a
fatal opposition from the lobby, which
as it is composed largely of women
has strength enough to defeat any
measure encroaching on their privil
eges. A little restraint placed upon
our legislators won't hurt them, and
perhaps it is better to have no prohibi
tory statute. Some of those solons
have not sowed thf ir wild oats as yet,
and their frlskinesss leads them often
into bad associations. The existence
of a law agains blackmail might In
duce ottiers, whose walk is now com
paratively straight, to yield to the
temptations which surround the in
nocent and unsophisticated legislator,
At lost the domestic infelicities
which have been known to exist be
tween ex-Senator Christinancy now
minister in Peru and his wife, have
culminated, ana we are promised a
divorce suit as full of nauseating de
tails as any in which the Prince of
Wales ever figured as a witness or
participator. Mrs. Christiancy re
turned here sonme months since from
Peru, and her husband's friends assert
that her conduct has been quite re
prehensible, though only in keeping
with her actions for several years post
not only in this country, but in Peru.
He has applied for a leave of absence,
and will return here to institute pro
ceedings against her for divorce. She
on the other hand, charges blm with
extreme cruelty, and asserts her in
nocence of crime. It is not at all
likely that Mr. Christiancy will Invoke
much sympathy for himself, no mat
ter wnat nts witnesses may prove
against her. She was a mere child
when he married her, younger in
years than some of his children, and
beyond that, was destitute of any of
the solidity of sensible womanhood
She was regarded as volatile and
frivolous, and could not fall to make
the wedlock of such extreme disparity
of ages and temperament an unhappy
one, even if, as she Insists, her skirts
are clear of unfaithfulness.
The President has approved the bill
allowing one, hundred additional pen
slon clerks. Now ther is a prospect
of some relief from the great delays of
the Pension Office, and a hope that
the business of the office, which is
fully one year behindhand, will be
brought up to a point where a pension
claim has some show of being adjudl
cated. As matters now go in that iin
portant bureau, which Is so unfortuu
ate as to have the poorest of ext utive
neaas, a claimant nas little assurance
that five years will see- the end of his
case. A 100 more clerks will, of course
expedite, to some extent.
The epidemic of crime has lately
wept over us, bringing a full portion
Of suicide, murder, and outrage. The
citizens of northwest K street were
startled recently with the discovery
of the dead bodies of Reilly, an Irish
coachman, and his wife, in their room
over the stable were be worked. N
If na of violence, blood, struggle, hot
ea, or other evidences of suicide, or
of foul play, were to be found, and
whether murder or suicide, the cflro
ner's inquest has been unable to de
termine,, though poison caused the
deaths. The wife was seen to enter
the stable in the evening somewhat
nder the influence of liquor, but the
family of the proprietor heard no
noise or disturbance during the night.
Tne couple bad lived happily to-1
gather, and were not pecuniarily em
barrassed. As no one can assign a
cause for suicide or for murder, the
whole affair Is shrouded with a mys
tery that apparently will never be re
vealed. Reilly was for several yetrs
the coachman of Lord Lyons, the ex-
English Minister, and while with him
married his wife, who was also one of
the servants.
Two young men. clerks In one of
the Departments, went off on a
runken carouse with a couple of
cyprlans. On return, one of them
shot himself through the head, though
not fatally; the other took a bed at
the brothel to which the woman be
longed, and died within twenty-four
hours. The weekly inevitable out
rage case has a colored instead of
white girl as the sufferer, bnt the ne
gro committing the crime was as bru
tal in his assault as the one in the last
ease reported.
A State Wanted.
(Phil's Pros.)
There was a good deal of curiosity
on the part or the public to know the
grounds on which Mr. Washburn,
representative from the Third district
of Minnesota, was to be unseated, and
Mr. Ignatius Donnelly put in his
place. An abstract of the report of
the majority of the House Committee
on Elections Is published in to-day's
Pre. Numerous cases of bribery are
mentioned, but without the testimony
on which they are founded, no one
can Judge as to whether they
are worthy of consideration or not.
Money is disbursed in every Concess
ional district in the United States for
campaign purposes. If the members
of the committe who investigated this
case were put on oath each of them
would be obliged to confess that he
pent from (1,000 to $10,000 to secure
his election. Nevertheless, he would
warmly deny that he had ever
attempted to bribe a voter. Mr.
Washburn's disbursements may have
been entirely legitimate and proper.
As for the pretense that voters were
intimidated in the city of Minneapolis,
it is simply ridiculous. Because there
was a large falling off in the Demo
cratic vote the Inference is drawn
that the working-men were afritid to
vote for Mr. Donnelly and did not
vote at all. The majority of the
committee vlrturally usks that the
seat be awarded to Mr. Donnelly lie-
cause 8,000 Democrats did not come to
the polls. It never occurred to the
committee that these missing Demo
crats remained at home because they
did not want to vote for the Green
back candidate. Ignatius Donnelly
was formerly a citizen of Pennsylva
nia, and more than three thousand
Democrats could be found iu the dis
trict in which he resided who would
not vote for him under any circum
stances.
Mr. Washburn was elected by 8,012
majority. Conceding ail that the
committee oharge with regard to the
polling of illegal votes, and throwing
out all the votes alleged to have been
illegal, or to have been procured by
improper influences, and he still has
a large majority left. It is impossible
for the committee to measure the effect
of the alleged intimidation; conse
quently if there is any doubt as to
the result a new election should be
ordered.
This is the first attempt that has
been made to give effect to votes which
were not cast since the Louisiana elec
tion of 1874. It will be remembered
that the Returning Board, iu canvass-
ng the returns of that election,
counted as ballots the affidavit of a
number of voters whom the bulldo
zers kept away from the polls. The
Wheeler Investigating committee cen
sured this action of the Returning
Board, and the Democratic editors
have been referring to it ever since as
a piece of unparalleled villainy. The
majority of the House committee now
report in favor of counting the votes
of alleged intimidated persons with
out either the ballots or the affidavits,
in fact, without undertaking to
mention a single person who com
plained of being afraid to vote.
Every intelligent citizen of the
United States knows why this contest
was made aud why the majority of
the House Committee on Election
has reported in favor of the seating
of Donnelly. Should the election
of president be thrown into the
House of Representatives the vote
will be taken by States, each
State casting one vote, and the ma
jority of the Representatives from
each State will determine how the I
vote is to be cast. With Minnesota
the Republicans have a majority of,
the States and would elect the Repub t
lican candidate for president. By
securing Mr. Donnelly, the vote of
Minnesota will be given to the Dem
ocratic candidate. The He v. Gilbert
De La Matyr, who holds the balance
of power in the Indiana delegation,
will then have the easting vote. The
Democrats feel tolerable sure thet Mr.
De La Matyr will not full them
Having secured Florldy by excluding
the legally elected Representative, all
that yet remains to be done is to make'
sure of Minnesota, and then the con
tingency of an election of president
by the House will he fully provided
for. N
