The Result.

Everywhere in this county so FAR
as heard from, The Democratic
strongholds have been weakened,
and the Republican majorities in
creased Center township that gave
a Democratic majority Of 226 at the
last October election, gave only &C
for Trustee. The Republican ma
iority in Green township was increa-
sed 30, and in Bourbon "a, and we
have no doubt that if the proper eff
forts had been put forth. the Repub-
lican Trustee Of Center township
migtt have been elected.

The Rensselaer, Union vs..
The Spy.

The Rensselaer, Union vs..
The Spy.
The Union, n an editorial. COM
menting upon the Spy's structures on
General Packard's course, speaks
thus pointedly.
ga QUESTION SETTLED"
Under the above head the Roehes-
ter Spy makes a most disgraceful
attack on our Congressman, General
Packard. 1t seems the father of the
editor CT that paper wanted the post
Office ut Plymouth, but failed TO get
it, as many an honest man has done
before him. Under the influence of
fearful passion, the son of his father
land editor of the Spy-selects
General Packard as the cause of the
wrong and the object of his wrath.
and without regard to propriety, dc-
cency or truth. strikes right and
left. He charges Packard with hav-
ing defeated crippled soldier in his
race for Auditor of LaPorte county,
two or three years ago.
We don't know whether the man
was cripple or not, but our infor-
mant states that if he was crippled
while in the United States service he
must have been hurt while in the of
fee of the Provost Marshal st La
Porte, as he did not get nearer the
enemy than that place dnriBg the
war.
If the statement of the editor is
true. he knew it at the time the con-
vention was held which nominated
General Packard, and he should have
used it have defeated his nomination
for Congress, but he did net do so:
on the contrary, Mr.. Mattingly then
rejoiced exceedingly over the nomi
nation and hailed it as a great tri-
umph Of the soldier elemen: over the
stay at home patriotism. This he
said in the issue Of his paper an
nouncing the Westville nomination
and published that he felt so gush-
ingly glorious that he rode all night
that he might publish the result. to
the people Of Fulton. county before
they could obtain it from any other
source. We had supposed from this
that the editors. friendship for Gen
Packard was of the most disinterest-
ed, but it appears to have been q
post office friendship-a very com.
mon kind indeed.

The G. host Removed.

The ghost which has SO. long
haunted the Democracy, and which
they have so long talked about,
wrote about. and expended Billions
from the treasury in their endeavors
to analyze, has finally been removed
so far from the capitol Of our State,
that the Democratic members are
willing, it seems, to venture into
special session. But how cautious
ly they step and how carefully they
watch, fearing that they might
behold the shadow upo: the walls.
They may not see the ghost. but it
is plainly written upon the walls that
their sceptre has departed and will
be given to people that will use it
more appropriately for the interest
OF mankind.

The President, in his late Message,
which we give in another column of
this paper, assumes that no further
steps can be taken by Virginia and
Mississippi towards readmission in
to tho Union without additional leg
islation by Congress. A majority
of the Judiciary Committee of the
Senate report adversely to this and
hold that no such legislation is nee
essary. The facts are, the amended
act of March 90, '67, for the recon-
struction of the States lately in re-
bellion, provides that when a consti.
tuition shall have been agreed upon
By a reconstruction convention, as
that in Virginia has been, it shall be
submitted by such convention for
ratification, and should such consti-
tuition be ratified by the people, the
State shall elect Representatives to
Congress and do all other acts that
are incumbent upon them as mem
bers Of the Union; but in case the
convention should fail to ratify said
Constitution, there is no provision
in the law for such emergency; hence
no power exists for the President to
act In their behalf. President Grant
not wishing to initiate his predeces
sor who sought to make bis imperi-
oil edicts the law i'm the absence Of
express powers, in this case wisely
suggested to Congress the propriety
Of clearing the Nay whereby he may
act without assuming doubtful pow
ers. While we would not hesitate
to trust this matter to the President,
We conceive it to be the mark of q
wise executive to refuse to exercise
powers not granted, especially when
no emergency for such course ex-
lists.

The House then proceeded to the

the choice Of George Buskirk. Their
upon Mr.. Price, with a view to put
ting an end to the difficulty which
had kept our Democratic brethren
out ir the cold so long, proposed the
following resolution, which was
adopted:
RESOLVED, That the consideration

amendment proposed to the consti-
Triton Of the United States, lie post
poned until Tuesday, the 18th day

spasmodic struggles, Mr.. Eckerson

borne to her bedside. Bending down
his lips met those he had so often
kissed in joy. love. and holy affec-
ton. And then with One look upon
the face he well knew he ought not
to ask to see again, he babe her
last adieu. The strong men who
gazed upon the scene, wept like lit
tie children as they saw the dying
man, who, with lips still compressed
signified the necessity Of being re-
moved from her presence. and then
was ready to die. Shortly after, in
renewed paroxysms of the dreadful
complaint, death came to his relief.
