As WAS ANTICIPATED from the result Of the
last Massachusetts election, the Prohibitory
liquor law in thar State has been repealed
Gov Bullock, however, seems to have shirked
The responsibility of signing the License Law
which has teen enacted in its stead. and it will
take eject without his approval. The Massa-
chuseus people have made up their minds that
prohibition is failure; it remains to be seen
whether they will be any better satisfied with

BACH AGAIN.

The seats vacated by the "wayward sisters"
III the House and Senate, at the outbreak of the
rsbeIlIon, are, after their long season of dust
covered disuse, to be filled once more; the
Speaker will again recognize the ssmember
from South Carolina" or the stmember from
louisiana as the case may be; and the sig
nificant blanks in the Congressional Directory
VIII be filed as of yore. The Senators and
Representatives elected by the Arkansas Legis-
lature under the reconstruction acts are here
ready for admission, which will be granted so
econ as the Impeachment question has been
disposed of. The members from South Caro-
lima will next be knocking at the door of Con-
grcss. There the new Constitution has been
adopted, and the legislature will doubtless
accept the amendment TO the Constitution, and
thus fulfill the conditions precedent" estab-
hshed by Congress. North Carolina and
Louisiana have adopted their Constitutions
and will speedily be putting themselves in a
position to ask for representation IN Congress.
In Alabama and Georgia, the Constitutions
voted on have probably been rejected. The
clause DISTINGUISHING men for opinions sake
s. ems 20 have defeats the Alabama Constitu-
ton; and that presented in Georgia seems to
have had many Objectionable features. The
Republicans, taught by experience, will doubt
less see to il that in the next essay at recon
sIUction in these States. the plan of Constitu-
ton II made sufficiently Just and fair in its
provisions to commend itself to the people.

THE CALIFoRSIASs are very much disturbed
about the failure OF Congress to pay for the
Alaska purchase. 1t will be remembered that
California was exceedingly anxious to have
this purchase brought about, and strong efforts
were made in its behalf The Ala California
Of March 3 says: 'If the House shall repudi-
ate the Alaska treaty by refusing the necessary
appropriations, and thus violate the plighted
faith of the nation, they will be very likely
10 lose in the coming election the support
of every State OF the Pacific slope-that is
west OF the Rocky Mountains. This action of
the populsr branch of Congress will wean
from the Republican ranks every merchant

commercial interests of this coast If this re-
ported action be true, it is a serious blow TO
our commercial aspirations and hopes. and we
shall receive it neither quietly nor submissive
