Ereffu Strong,

Tho New York World says that
Judge Strong, by whose vote the Su-
preme Court was made TO reverse It's
former decision as to the constitution
ality Of the Legal tender act in the
interest Of railroads, is the same
Judge, who from another bench, nu-
thorized tho railroads to disregard
their charter obligations TO charge no
moro than four cents per mile for each
ton OF coal carried, and gave them
permission TO charge whatever rate
might please them. From twisting
the charters Of railroad companies to
suit their own interests it is only q
brief step to twisting the Constitution
Of the United States for tho same
laudablo purpose. No enc will imog
inc that Judge Strong bas been IN
duly influenced by the companies, fol
he is the leader of those pious people
who clamor for the introduction of the
name Of God into the Oonstitution
And more than this, while The Judge
was on the Supreme Bench in this
State he was constantly clamorinp
about his low salary, saying that be
could not live on ii, that he would ro

The contest for scat IN the House

of South Carolina, between G. G..
Bowen and r. G. Dc Large, colorcd,
will, il is believed, be decided in favor
of the former, as the Commissioners OF
Election of Beaufort county, in that
district, were tried in the United
States Circuit Court, in Charleston
last week, upon an indictment charg
ing them with having stuffed the bal
ot.boxes, falsifed tho election record
made false returns Of the number o
votes cast, and committed divers othel
acts in violation OF the United States
enforcement Law at the last election
The jury found the prisoners guilty
and Judge Bond sentenced them Gael
to two years Imprisonment in tn
penitcntiary, thus sustaining MI
Bowcn's charge OF fraud in that dis
trict, and proportionally increasing
his chances for the contested seat

Ku-Kimr Bin Misunderstood

Tho New York ,SaA says: In q
speech at Cincinnati on Wednesday
of last week Gen. J. d. Cox, who was
recently Secretary of the Interior,
said that an army of one hundred
thousand soldiers would not be sufli-
cicnt to put in force the Ku Klux bill
which has just passed the House of
Representatives. Gen. Cox thinks il
is impossible to restore poaco aud
quiet at the South 10y any amount Of
military force, so long as measures
are agitatcd in Congress and discussed
in the press which are calculated to
irritate the Southern people and make
them discOntented and restless
Gen. Coz misapprchends the real
nature of tho Ku KluX bill lIs es.
sential design is not to restore peace
and quiet at the South, and to allay
discomfort and disorder This is only
an incidental and comparatively unim-
portant part of the business. The
first purpose of susponding civil law
in that part of the country and send.
ing down. soldiers is to force the Re.
publicans of those States to appoint
delegates to the approaching Nation
al Convention of that party who will
be in favor of the denomination oI
Grant Next, the elections there arc
to be controlled by military means, SO
that the electoral votes of those States
will be secured for Grant, whatever
may be the wishes Of the majority oil
their citizens. To carry out these
designs, Gen. Cox can very well un-
dcrsland that an army of one hundred
thousand men will not be required
Probably a force of twenty thousand
will suffice. But ifthc next President
should happen to be chosen in that
way, how will the rest OF the country
like itY And what will Gen. Cox say
and do thcng
