AN INCH AT A TIME.

Everybody, says the New York Sun,
has heard of the kind-hearted lrishman,
who, considering it expedient to dock bis
dogs tail, undertook to mitigatet The pain
of the operation by cutting OF an inch
at time, instead of amputating it at
the stub at once. With less benevolent
motives, Gen. Grant appears to be imi-
tating the policy of this well-meaning
but mistaken Hibernian in his manner
of administering the Ku-Klux law.
While he may deem it highly desirable
that the provisions of this law should be
enforced throughout the United States
previous to the Presidential election,
yet, as the people might become
FESTIVE If general dictatorship should
be proclaimed at once, he is endeavor-
ing to accustom them to the practical
workings of the unconstitutional and in
famous law by degrees. He begins with
comparative mildness in North Caro-
lima; he is preparing to execute the Law
with more severity in South Carolina
while Georgia is promised the next tast'
of its beauties, although only those WHIT
are working for his denomination arr
able to see any necessity for the en-
forcement Of martial law in either o
these States.

MARTIAL LAW.

The St. Louis Republican allndes to
a fact that is of great significance.
President Grant proclaims martial law
in South Carolina, and Governor Davis
ploclaims martial law in Texas, and
neither proclamation exeites more than
a momentary interest anywhere, except
among those who are the victims Of the
irresponsible system. How strangely we
become accustomed to novelties we once
imagined free people could not submit
to. Before the Republican party came
into power, we did not know what mar
tial law was; the words we're scarcely to
be found outside the dictionary and old
law books. The slight exhibition of it by
General Jackson at New Orleans in
1915 was esteemed an insupportable out
rage, and even Jackson's great name
and services did not save him from
rebuke at the hands Of Congress. But
since the advent Of the Republican party
to power, there has scarcely been a day
in which martial law has not practically
existed in some part Of the Union. 1t is
more than ten years since the Federal
military authorities arrested citizen Of
Baltimore named Merryman, and defied
the judicial order from Chief Justice
fancy Cor his release; yet from that day
TO this there has not been an hour when
the Executive has not dared to arrest
persons without legal process, or when
citizens have not been in danger Of being
arrested without the right of appeal to
the laws Of the country.

A FANCY.

Choate oh d for another hour with Daniel
Webster. The stricken heart obs for
reunion with its lost love. And many
people of the United States oh for the
presence on earth of jackson, Clay,
Webster, Calhoun, Benton and Wright,
that the hungry adyenturers who have
seized upon the Government and
trampled upon the people may be re-
buked by their august aspect. How
could Bullock look Clay in the
face2 How could Butler endure the
gaze of Webster's grand, searching,
whitening eyes? How could Bowen, the
Radical statesman and bigamist, con-
front the pure and spotless Calhoun2
How would Drake conduct himself in
the presence of Benton, and Conkling
in that Of Wright We can well i'm
acine how Grant would look and feel if
brought face to face with Jackson, and
how a packed Supreme Court would
blush to see Marshall, and fancy, and
Story, come into the chamber they had
once adorned and left as unsullied as
when il came from the hands OF the
builder. All, these were men. No
money, not of their own honest
earnings, stuck TO their fingers
They regarded nothing so infa-
nous as bribery, and nothing so dan
gerous as violations Of the Constitution.
In their day no rings could carry meas
ures through Congress, and no case
could 90 through the courts that had the
slightest tinge of wrong about it. Would
it not be a grand spectacle, that of Clay

What confusion the apparition would
produced The hair would bristle up on
the heads of the little fellows who oc-
cupy their places, and dismay would
make them ten times the pigmies they
are. 1t would not be necessary
for one word to be spoken. The pres
ence of these great, pure Senators, all
voiceless, would be sufficient to carry a
rebuke and plant dagger in the heart
of every triekster. There would be
richness in accompanying Andrew Jack
son to the White House. Dent comes to
the door. He confronts tall man,
crowned with white hairs, and possessing
an eye that is full Of fire, and unquaillng.
He takes card and presents it to
Grant Andrew Jackson Without
awaiting the evolutions of red tape, he
walks into the chambers he knew so well.
And there we leave them, Andrew Jack
son looking upon his successor. OH

A Havana letter states that instead OF
the insurrection being ended, there has
been a series of defeats Of the Spanish
forces in the Eastern district. M
A Washington special says that it APP
pears that there was good deal Of care
lessness exhibited in drafting the Presi-
dents proclamation declaring martial
law in South Carolina. One of the
counties intended to be included in the
so-called insurrectionary district was
omitted altogether, and one included
the county of Marion-of which the Rad
zeal Senator from that quarter writes
that he does not know Of more peace
full place. He says that it must be a
clerical error to have included that
county, and he begs that martial law be
withdrawn from it. The fact is, that
Marion county was represented here to
be one of the worst KulKlux counties in
the State. The authorities do not know
what to believe Of these contradictions
