SENATOR CLEMENrSoN.

The Senator from McNIinn made his
debut as a Senatorial debater in the dis
cussion of the Convention bill. This he
ing his first session in the Legislature, we
had no previous acquaintance with him,
and were not aware of the estimation in
which he was held by his constituents.
Our surprise was, therefore, nearly AS
great as our pleasure in hearing the mas
tcrly manner in which hc discussed the
questions involved. He came promptly
and squarcly up to the issues, and handled
them with an ease which cyinced famil-
iarity with the fundamental doctrines Of
our government. His people may well be
proud of his effort. The people Of the
State owe him a debt OF gratitude for his
triumphant defense for their Unalienahlc
and indefeasible rights.

IT is decidedly bad policy TO keep two
romancers in one newspaper establish
ment. Their tales sometimes clash, as
has just been illustrated in the New York
Tribune. For instance, the day after
the election, in speaking of matters in the
Dist ward of New York city, the reporter
for the Tribune said, "No attempt at il
legal voting was made in the twenty first
ward, and the election was unusually
quiet. But the editor, in his double
loaded leader in the same issue, made this
startling announcement: "The Dist ward,
Sheriff O'Brien's, far outstripped all II
vally, polling about 1000 fraudulent
votes, and thus largely increasing the
fraudulent Democratic majority it rolled
up for Seymour, Hoffman & Co, last
year Who tells the truth?

We publish in another column a com
munication from one of the first citizens of
the State on that section of the State Con
stitution which renders n member of the
Legislature ineligible during the time for
which he is elected 10 any Office, the ap-
pointment to which Is with the Governor
or the Legislature. 1t viii De seen that
the writer draws very clearly thc distinc-
ton made in the two editorials of the
Cincinnati Enquirer, published in paral-
lei colums in Yesterdays Banner, which
distinction the BuHCr failed 10 see.
The Congress Of the United States may
have the exclusive right to judge of the
qualifications of lis own members, and

say 10 candidates for the Legislature /:

and Won shall not accept Of any office
during the time for which you were

Is the month of May, 1854, an English
traveller approached a small town in Tcv-
as. There was much commOtion in the
main street, and an angry crowd collected
in front of a tavern. As the tourist neared
Che asscmblagc, a man emerged from the
door of the house One of his eyes was
gougcd from his head, one of his arms
broken, blood was streaming from several
stabs and gashcs upon his person, and a
pistol ball had made an ugly furrow in his
scalp. On being asked if he had not been
pretty roughly handled in the encounter
the man replied ut might have been
worse. " The Philadelphia Age says this
illustrates the condition of the Radical
party, emerging from the fall contests.
They have staggered from the fights and
raised faint cheer, but their real feeling
is, at might have been worse" In Ohio
they lost heavily onthe majority for Grant;
in Pennsylvania hut few thousand di-
yides the parties, and that the result Of
Radical frauds. New York elects the
Democratic State ticket and redeems the
Legislature New Jersey obtains signal
advantages in the recent contest Massa-
chusetts, which last year gave the Radical
candidate for Governor over 5000 ma
jority, is cut down TO less than 10000.
Wisconsin now returns 5000 majority,
against over "a, 600 in 1868, and Mary
land, Virginia, Tennessee, have repudiated
the party in power in the most emphatic
and overwhelming manner. Thus cut,
hacked, shot, mangled and gouged, the
Radical party comes before the people of
the country and meekly mutters, at might
have been worse" How much worse?

The Boston Post exposes BOutwell's
quackeIy. That paper charges him with
being possessed of a remarkably minute
turn of mind, and it is therefore the more
singular that such considerable triies as
the following happened to escape his at
tention: He stated in Philadelphia that
the public debt at present amounts to
81, 400, 0O0, 600, and at the same time insists
on its payment in gold. If it were to be
so paid, at the current price of gold, the
debt would be increased by more than
500, 600, 600! Why does he not, then,
if he would be thought hard-mOney
man above others, state the amount of the
debt in actual coin instead of in currency,
and so say that it is over So, loo, 900, 900
in its sum total, rather than 400, 900, :
600? Again, Mr. Boutwell, goes into the
market and buys bonds for currency at
l15, when gold was selling for $50 odd.
If he stickles for paying for them in coin,
why did he not pay for them at the latter
rate, instead of buying them of the public
creditor on the currency basis ? How
hollow are the pretensions of quacks every
where Mr. Boutwell, talks coin for party
effect, but buys at paper prices to suit his
actual needs.

BY reference to oar legislative proceed
ings IL viii be seen Chat The Senate yester-
day passed the House Bill on its third
reading with several amendments, one Of
which we regard as very important. We
refer TO the reduction of the number of
delegates from one hundred to fifty. We
beg Representatives to pause before they
concur in thar amendment They had bet
ter postpone the further consideration of
the subject for few days, rather than
send the bill with that amendment to the
people. We assure them, there is danger
in it, This is democratic government,
we do not speak IN parry sense,
and in so important body as cOnsti-'
tutional convention, the people win ex-
peet to have sufficiently large represen-
tation to speak, as far as possible, the
voice of every county. We believe that
the people would be better satisfied TO
have Misrepresentation enlarged so asto in
clude delegate from not only the present
legislative districts, but also a delegate
from those counties which have no repre-
sentative. The number fixed in the House
bin is fair compromise between those
who wish larger and those who wish a
smaller delegation. We do not be-
lieve that fewer delegates viii
give general satisfaction. We do
not believe that the action of fifty will
carry the same weight, however wise it
may be, as would the action of one hun
dred. We have insisted with all of our
ability upon the passage of the Conyen-
lion bill We feel the deepest interest in
having it acceptable to the people We
are exceedingly anxious that il should not
be crippled, deformed or rendered objec-
tionable in any of its parts. We there
fore again beg Representatives to pause
and ponder well before they con-
cur in the Senate amendment. The
Convention of 1884 had the same number
of delegates IS were in the two branches
of the Legislature. Let this be the same.
1t is true that the Treasury is depleted,
and great economy should be used. But
double the number of members will not
double the expense. The former viii re-
quire the same number of officers, at
tendants, fuel, lights, ETC., etc, as the
latter. Their per diem for a few
weeks win be a comparatively small
item. Let the expenditures which count
by the million be stopped, and the people
viii very readily invest a few thousand
extra in convention 1t is the disfran-
chised who have to pay a very large pro-
portion of the expense We are sure
that they viii be willing to pay literally
TO get a convention that viii restore them
to their rights, and give satisfaction to
the entire people.
