hEMEDY FOR POLITICAL EVILS. We
have withheld the expression of any
opinion hitherto upon the proposed sys.
tenn of cumulative voting" as n remedy
Tor evils inflicted upon us by corrupt
GoVornment, because, though the sys
tenn WAS favored by many whom We re-.
sPect, we had serious doubts of it's policy
and it's efficacy. Neither will wo discuss
the subject now.
With regard to al educational unnli-
fication" for suffrage, that, we think. is
quito impracticable in this State.
There is a remedy, however, which
may yet be practicable, and which GER
tninly would prove most efficacious. The
great evils to bo remodicd grow out of
the Governments being i'll the hands Of
these who are incompetent, corrupt aud
dishonest.
We propose that it shall bo provided
by law that no public officer who shall
have been proved guilty OF any corrupt
or dishonest action while in Office, shall
ever after be eligible to any Office what
ever.
We propose also TINT every person
who shall have been convicted of either
grand or petit larceny, or other infamous
crime, shall forever be debarred from
the right OF suffrage as we'll as from eli
glblllty to Office; and that in no case
whatever shall the Governor or any other
authority have power to restore the eli.
gibility to office or the right of suffrage
ouce forfeited.
We do not see what objection can be
made to this remedy except on tho part
OF rognes and thieves.-iSumter Ne,os.

A SINGULAR STORY IN CoNNEorIoN
WITH LrNcoLN's ASSASSINATION a sin
gnlar story is told in connection with the
Lincoln assassination, by Mr.. William
Withers, SEN, which has never been
published. Mr.. Withers has son
named William, who was leader Of the
orchestra ut Lima Edwin's Thentre list
winter. Both father aud son were in
Ford's Theatre Mt the time when Boot,
shot Lincoln. The elder Withers was
one of tho orchestra, and played the
trombone. The younger had been seated
IN the parquette, but just previous to
the time when the fatnl shot was fred, he
loft his seat and proceeded to the back
part Of the stage, for the purpose of
speaking to some onn there on IL private
matter. "
The two Withers we're we'll acquainted
with Booth, and he with them, the elder
having played game Of billiards with
Booth on the Saturday provions-the
former losing the gamc, but Booth, who
would not permit him to pay for it, ex-
hibited "a thick roll OF bills of lnrgo de-
nominations, and, in boasting way, re-
marked that he had struck oil. After
Booth had fired, aud started to retreat
through the wings to tho inck entrance,
he wns met in the passage by yonng
Withers, who did not know what had
taken place. Withcrs was about to
speak to him, but Boo til made hinge II,
him with knife ho held in his hand
Withers lodged the blow, but it never
theless struck him Ill the shoulder in III
angular direction, aud glanced of, cut
ting through coat. vest nnd shirt, and
producing slight wound Of the skin.
He then rushed out and mounted his
horse. Wm. Witllers. Jr., stated these
facts to Mayor Wnllack previous to his
eXamination, who advised him not t,
mention the circumstance of receiving
tho stab. and he did not do so. Th.
elder Mr.. Withcrs cannot imagine fol
what purpose tlnt advice wns Civ.

y comprehensive resume Of the conli
ton of the crops in Europe and the hnr-
vest returns shows that III England the
winter prospect is not IL cheerful one,
anu the losses sustained by stock -raisers
supplement those OF short crops mud the
spread of the potuto disease. The re-
turns from other parts Of Europe nre
more encouraging. bit the general i'm
preston, derived from review of the
whole field, is much less favorable than
that which was formed from IL review Of
our own harvest fields. published few
weeks since. Indeed. compared with
the condition OF American breadstnii
markets, those Of Great Britain and
many pnrts Of Europe are in strait
cncd condition; and this fact, added TO
h" appreciation Of prices, is sure to fol-
low tho destruction of Chicago.

s. B. PACKARD, United States marshal
for the district of Louisiana, endeavors by a
telegram in the Tribune to explain awsv
the use of troops BY the Grant wing of the
party on occasion of the recent Republican
convention in New Orleans. The plea il
very lame. 1t says: "As president of the
"stste committee and by direction of the
COMMITTEE, and not as marshal, 1 gave
tickets of admission tho all claiming seats
"in the convention. There was nothing To
RESTRAIN any delegate or contestant from
"access to the courtroom" If there wa,
nothing to forbid admission, what was the
necessity for tickets That there were
troops employed the marshal admits, and,
despite his denial, there is enough implied
III his letter to show that they were used to
favor the Grant as against the anti Grant
delegations. Neither bayonets nor tickets Of
admission are employed at assemblies un-
less there are some to let in and to keep
out.

The news from Paris on the 26th was to
the effect that the Central Republican
Committee had released Generals ChanZy
and Longorean. Menotti Garibaldi had
been appointed commander-in-chief of the
insurgent Nationals. The election passed
off quietly, and the Central Republican
Committee yielded to the newly-elected
municipal government.
Order had been restored at Lyons on the
Goth and the Prefect of the Department
had been released.
The London Observer of the Goth reports
that the health of Emperor Napoleon was
good. The oft-repeated statements that
his agents were distributing money among
the insurgents in Paris are pronounced
awaiting the final and legitimate decision
of the French people.
representatives of Spain, Italy and
Hungary have presented to Emperor
William congratulations of their respective
sovereigns on the restoration Of the Ger
man Empire.
At the election in Paris on the Goth the
candidates of the Central Republican
Committee were elected in all the arron-
dissements except the First, Second, and
Seventh.
A special from Versailles on the 27th
says the government had ordered the
prompt arrest of Garibaldi upon his ap-
pearance on French soil. 1t was generally
thought that the government was defunct
and rumor was current that Thiers would
be forced to resign, and be succeeded by
the Due d'Aumale.
The French Plenipotentaries arrived at
Brussels on the eth, and the negotiations
for final treaty of peace between France
and Germany would soon commence.
In an address to the National Assembly
at Versailles, on the 27th, Theirs defended
the wisdom of his policy, and took sol
emn oath that he would not betray the
Republic.
The Plenipotentiaries of France and
Germany met at Brussels on the 2Sth, at
