For some unhappy reason or other the
Kentucky Legislature, arrayed though it
was in all the glories of Democratic raj
ment, is not giving the satisfaction to its
constituents that was once fondly antici-
pated. AS a consequence the chivalric
Kentuckians are abusing it in no measured
terms. They accuse it of selling itself,
body and soul, to the Cincinnati Bridge
interest; of playing into the hands of
"rival States" generally, in manner
"quite frightful to see," and finally it is
mercilessly attacked for allowing "the law
lessness which embraces the State Capital
to go unchalenged, thereby placing itself
substantially in the attitude Of an accom-
plice." The Louisville Courier-Journal is
particularly exercised upon the subject,
and after dwelling particularly upon the
probable consequences of the existing state
of things, forcibly propounds this conun-
drum: "Is a Democratic Legislature, in
whose hands the responsibility rests, going
to adjourn without SO much as a protest I?
If SO, how are we to expect to make any
Roadway against the Radicals, or even
keep ourselves out of the clutches of the
Federal government? These are things
for the people to consider"

Repentant southern congressman.

Repentant Southern congressman.
The Washington correspondent of the
New York Tribune, says that " some of
the Democrats from Virginia and North
Carolina are already repenting in fgurative
sack-cloth and ashes their rash and suici-
dal votes to-day on repeating the duty on
coal. The bituminous coal of those States
is nearer tide-water than that of Nova
Scotia, and Senator Sprague, who has
used both, is the authority for the state
ment that the product of the Virginia
mines is worth dollar ton more than
the foreign coal, while that of North Caro-
lima is more valuable STILL Steps have
already been taken to develop these mines
and place their products in the New Eng
land market, but this action of the House
will prevent anything further in that d.
rection for the present. The leaders of the
Democratic side were Boosting of their
splendid organization, which commanded
the solid vote of the Democratic delegations
from these States, in direct opposition to
the interests Of their constituents, and the
gentlemen themselves are only hoping that
their friends at home may not hear what
they have been doing" III

day in November, 1878.
And again The counties of Chesterfield and
Amelia each have Senator that holds over under

The undersigned feels 1t to be his duty to enter his
protest against the manner in which this bill comes
before the Senate. 1t is reported from majority of
| the committee without having received that con-
sideration which its great Importance demands. IT
was presented to the Committee on Privileges and
Elections for the first time, in printed form, by the
chairman at meeting of the committee held last
Thursday morning. After few slight verbal amend
ments, and without the bill even having been read
| in committee motion was submitted and carried
| that the bill be reported.
The undersigned asked for further time to carefully
examine the bill, that IL he did not agree with the
report about to be made, he might prepare minor.
iiy report to have it go before the Senate at
the same time with the majority report but 1t was
| refused lie told he could present a minority
report afterwards.
On the submission of the majority report to tho
Senate attempts made to push tho bill through
on the day of and the day succeeding its presenta-
ton without giving Senator's time for careful ex-
animation of the bill. 1t looks very much like an
attemptt smugge the monstrous thing through this
body without giving its members time to investigate
its Ubiquitous details. And certainly giving no time
this very imperfect analysis Of the BILL which the
undersigned felt constrained to give as part OF his

FISHING IN THE PoToMAo.--Mr Porter,
of Virginia, has presented in the House
the petition of Benjamin W. Cox and
fifty-nine citizens of the District of Column
bia, representing that they are engaged in
fishing in the waters of the Potomac river,
and that they are subjected to great loss
and Inconvenience in the prosecution of
such business in consequence of the con-
flicting laws and authorities Of the States
of Maryland and Virginia, each claiming
the right to control the commerce and
fisheries to the exclusion of the business
operations of citizens of other States. The
Washington Republican says: "The fish
ermen petition Congress to pass such laws
as will clearly define and settle the ques-
ton as to the rights of the fishermen of
the District to prosecute their calling in
the waters of the Potomac, and to provide
remedies which may DO enforced by APP
peals to the Supreme Court of the United
States. Mr.. Porter also presented SINH
lar petition from j. s. Cogswell and fifty
citizens of the city of Alexandria. Both
petitions were referred to the Judiciary
Committee.

Missouri Politics.

We are glad to note that the Republic
cans of Missouri are steadily, if not rapid
ly, returning to reason. We have men
toned from time to time what the various
opposing city and county committees are
doing to bring about union and reorgan-
ization. The st. Louis Democrat has been
interviewing Governor Gratz Brown, and
reports him as saying that, 50 far as par
ties are concerned, he has no. wish but
for the success of the Republicans every
where 1t is added that in view Of his
election by the vote of the Republicans
and Democrats together he Especially de-
sires to avoid what may seem offensive
partizanism for or against either, but he
expresses himself as fully recognizing his
position as an acknowledged Republican,
nominated by Republicans, on Republic
can platform" The Governor was one of
the earliest and most vigorous anti-slavery
men in Missouri, and we could never credit
the report that he would hereafter throw
himself in the arms Of the Democracy.
