On the 9th, Milton Keller, aged eighteen,
living on the top of the mountain five miles

there since 1862. He picked up the shell to
examine it, when it exploded, killing him in

The editor of the Biddeford Union has seen

POLITICAL.

Senator Dixon publicly stated Wednesday
evening that Gen. Ferry would be certainly
headed off, in the Connecticut Senate 1t is
feared that three votes have been secured in that
body to effect "dead lock-" after the Scovell
pattern in New Jersey. The Connecticut Leg
islature can afford to wait. Gov. Hawley will
make good appointment if it is left to him.
The President, in pursuance of his policy
has removed G. A. Halsey, Assessor of Internal
Revenue in the Fifth District of New Jersey,
and nominated e. A. Carman, who is endorsed
by James M. Scovell and "Pet" Halstead
Collector Smythe, of New York, address,
ing the subordinate officials of the Custom
House on taking charge, said the President had
suggested that he should surround himself
with "loyal" persons, while the Secretary of
the Treasury had advised him to employ only
competent and reliable men. Mr.. Smythe init
mated that he understood what the President
meant by loyalty, but concluded by saying, 81
do not, however, intend to dictate or bring pol
itics before you at all. dislike extremes-have
been made to suffer by them-and only advise

infer that the Collector thinks the Secretary's
advice better than the Presidents.
1t will be seen that Judge Abell's opinion
which we give in another column, on the con.
sttutionality of the Civil Rights law, was
rather obtrusively offered in case where, az

ton before the Court was in no way concerned

that the constitutional meaning of the word.
"two thirds of that house," is two thirds of al

consistency he must also hold that "a majority
constituting a quorum for the transaction o
business, must mean majority of all tn,
members. If then the vacant seats of tn,
Southern delegations are to be counted, tn,
laws of the last five years will be left IN SAT
confusion. There is too much practical sens
in the American people to overturn the legisla
ton of five years to satisfy legal bubble, ever
if it were well taken. When Judge Abel say
"the States are as independent in their sphere
as the stars are of the sun, from achich they Dor
roao their brightness" he talks both political ant
