THE Pittsburgh Post dominates Hon,
THOMAS A. SCOTT, "the Railroad King,
Cor Democratic candidate for President
OF the United States. 1t has long been
a maxim in political calculations that
las goes Pennsylvania, so goes the
Union and it is urged that Mr.. SCOTT
is almost the only Democrat who can
carry Pennsylvania. We do not ques-
ton his ability to secure the vote of the
keystone State, and therere can be no
kind of doubt that his superiority to
GRANT in all the qualities necessary for
a President OF the United States is mark
ed and conspicuous. In fact there Is
no comparison to be instituted between
the men as regards their fitness for the
place. But there is among the people
of many States wholesome dread OF
the power Of such vast moneyed corpo-
rations as that of which Mr.. ScolT is
the head and soul, in so far as they
may be said to have any soul at all.
The railroads already govern too many
of the States and there is reason to fear
the fastening Of their power upon upon
the nation at large. Mr.. SCoTT is a
clear-headed, far-seeing man, but cant
we elect some old fashioned statesman
who will do something to bring the
Government back to the time when
there was purity in the public service
and wisdom in the councils of the ma
ton; when men were not measured by
dollars and there was no commerce in
yotes9

CoLoRED men seem determined to
have al their rights, Notwithstanding
the fact that they insist upon certain
rights that are not generally set down
in the catalogue. Az, for instance,
Judge in Washington recently had
man before him who had been arrested
because he refused to sell whisky 10
three negroes. The judge, however,
decided that there was no law whereby
saloon keepers were bound to sell their
stock even to negroes. Congress ought
70 lake the matter in hand as soon as
il assemblies and provide for the sum-
mary execution of saloon keepers who
VII not supply the demands OF coloTed
customers. In this way Ku.kluXlsm

shot.

One day last week Mr.. James ".
Smith had log chain stolen from his
premises, and he believed 1t was on a
boat on the Ohio side of the river He
went to Gallipolis and got an officer and
the papers necessary to recover the
chain. In the meantime warrant was
procured on this side and placed in the
hands of one OF our officers, who
crossed the river and attempted tomake
the arrest, but was, resisted and
knocked down and his revolver taken
from him. General McCausland, who
was standing near by as spectator,
was assaulted by one Of the party named
Martin, with a revolver. Mr.. McCaus-
land retreated to some distance, and
told Martin that if he did not desist he
would shoot him, but not needing this
counsel, he cooked his revolver, and
leveled it at McCausland and was in the
act of pulling the trigger, when Mr.
McCausland drew up his gun and sho,
the revolver out OF Martins hand, the
shot scattering and making some ugly
wounds on Martin face.-Point Peas

THE Council of Charleston has APP
propriated One Thousand Dollars for
the relief of the sufferers 10y the fires in
Michigan and Wisconsin. This Is
thoughtful and timely. The whole
world is pouring its gifts into Chicago
while the people OF the Northwest
whose sad condition is in many respects
worse than til OF the sufferers 10y the
Chicago fire, are appealing for aid almost
IN vain. They are away upon the out
skirts of civilization they cannot easily
return 10 their friends in the Eastern
States; they cannot easily make their
necessities known; but their wall has
been heard, and We know that their
suffering must be extreme. Who will
contribute for Michigan and Wisconsin?

The report of the Bourbon fusion is con-
firmed by the debates of yesterday in the AS
sembly at Versailles. A motion was made to
abrogate all laws of prescription, subscribing
only the injustice and hatreds of dynasties, and
not in conformity with true civil freedom; and
an amendment was proposed relating specially
to the laws which prevent the princes of the
two branches of the House of Bourbon from
living in France. The Assembly also took up
the question of the validity of the elections of
the Prince de Joinvlle and the Duke of Au-
male and made it the order of the day for
Monday next The vote upon this ques-
ton will give some indication of the
strength of the new coalition, and if these two
able and estimable sons of Louis Philippe are
admitted to their places in the Chamber, as
is their right nucleus for the Restoration party
will be at once furnished in the very heart of
the legislative power. They are ready TO as
sumo their seats as soon as they are declared
entitled to them. In spite of the Napoleonic
DEGREES which banished them from France in
the early days of the Empire, and OF the Re-
publican orders which confirmed the Bonapartist
outrage a few months ago, they have not quilted
France but have remained at the chateau of
the Duke of Audiffret-Pasquier, not far from
Versailles awaiting the progress of events.
Their presence in the Legislative Body will
unquestiOnably give life and direction to
Bourbon efforts at restoration. But they are
honest men and sensible as princes go; and
though it is only natural that they should
prefer the purple of royalty to the black coat
of the citizen they are not likely to attempt
anything which would be contrary to the evil
dent wish of the people of France. This much
of practical democracy they have learned in
England and America. If the Republic sur
wives its present perils, as we earnestly hope
it may, these Orleans princes will be false to
every profession of their lives if they do not
become good and useful citizens of free France.
They are of better stuff than the ordinary herd
of mere princes, and can sustain themselves
in any community, as men among men,

rs TT UISE,

A dispatch, the other day, announced that
the cornerstone of the new Capitol at AL
bary was to be laid with the ceremonial of the
Masonic Order on their hOnored day, the an
niversary of St. John the Baptist. There are
some reasons why such programme may seem
at first view appropriate. The FreemaSOns are
a large and powerful body, embracing great
many of our most trusted and honored
citizens, having no political affiliations,
and generally respected for their charitable
deeds and useful purposes. Their gorgeous
regalia and impressive ritual add splendor
to all public observances in which they take
part, and under their auspices we may he sure
that the beginning of the new State House
will be hOnOred with becoming parade. But
is it wise to place the matter in their hands
If it had been proposed that the Right
Rev. HOratiO Potter, Bishop of the Protestant
EpscOpal Church in the Diocese of New
York, should lay the cornerstone, with a process
sion of his clergy in SUPPLIES and stoles; or
that DR.. ConrOy, the Roman Catholic Bishop of
Albany, should bless it with holy water and
incense and the sign of the cross or that
the Presbyterian General Assembly should
take it in charge, and appoint some of
their leading divines to conduct the
ceremonies, all parties and denominations
would have objected The Capitol is
built for the whole people, without distinction
of politics, creed, or opinions. The Freema-
sons, highly as they are esteemed, do not rep
resent the whole people. TO the majority their
rites are incOmpreheDsible, To a number not
inconsiderable, especially among the Roman
Catholics and EpiscOpalians, the order is, on
general principles, offensive. lntrusting the
ceremony to them seems to us scarcely less
unwise than it would be to give il to relg-
ious denomination, or the Sons Of Temperance
or The Ancient Order Qi UiberRials, OK tho

There has been great deal of speechmaking in
Boston during the last week. but we have read no
more cheerful pleasant and animating reports than
those Of the speeches made at the Universaist Fest
val at Faneul Hall, on the 3ist ult. We mention
them because we think them remarkable for good
taste, good humor and kindly, catholic feeling
Some Of the other meetings, we are sorry to say
were not so encouraging and by no means so harmo-
NOUS. The Association Of Congregational Ministers
could only muster an attendance of about dozen
members. This is charitable society for the ben
eft of the families of deceased clergymen. In view
of the evident lcthargy, the Rev. DR.. Lothrop
thought that the Society itself had better disband
and die. resolution TO this effect was given to
Committee to consider during the next twelve
months.

We read Of another young poet dead in Scotland
and with a volume of verses left behind him. His
name was George Heath, he was a joiner by. trade,
and he lived twenty-five years, most of them of suf
ferng and deprivations. 1t seems to us one of the
remarkable features of the time that so many men
and women should write passable poetry fair enough
in day Of less glut, to make reputation. Consd-
erng the quantity, one is surprised to find the quality
80 clever. Every newspaper conductor receives
from young people ambitious of print, pecks of poe
try which seems too good for the waste-basket, but
which ia not worth the room which it would occupy
in an oyerorowdcd journal There is nothing for it
but to say No " much pain as the veto may give

Massachusetts may have been over-Puritanicai In
days past but she must be getting better OF that
complaint, when her House of Representatives de-
bates without bringing down upon it the dome OF the
State House, whether an Election Sermon shall be
preached or not next year Why, Mr.. Kimball OF
Boston actually stood up in his place and said that
"the sermon bad become a mere farce" and that
now was the time to abolish it, and 90 ungodly
members solemnly voted that Mr.. Kimball was right
However. there were 40 members who voted the
other way. and 80 the one hundred less One who
were in the gall of bitterness and the bond of in
iuitv. were put down. The best of it all is that
there is to be sermon by tho Rev. DIR. Peabody of
Cambridge and an excellent discourse we predict
that il will be,

1t is rather melancholy TO read of the death, in
Concord n. H., of the Rev. Jonas Merriam, because
he has for a number of years been printing news
paper called The Worlds Crisis, and proving therein
that The Second Advent with the destruction of the
world was at hand. The Rev. Mr. Miller died long
ago without the sight which he had 80 long expected
and now one of his chief disciples has followed him.
If we were disposed to mOralize, we might suggest
that there is certainly an Exit if not an Advent
awaiting and substantially it is all the same to us
whether The world passes away or we pass out of it,
This being so, perhaps ttle too much time and i'll
genuity have been spent in trying to fix. by the in
terpre alton of Daniel, that day and hour which no
man knoweth.

Commissioner Connolly of the Sinking Fund
announces the probable conclusion of a finan-
cial arrangement with the ROtbschilds, by
which they are to take the consolidated debt
of the City, paying off the old loans as they
fall due, and taking the new consolidated
securities "a they are issued. Before this ar
rangement is perfected, we hope the Controller
will not fail to give us the long-expected re-
port, and in it such lucid exposition OF
the City's finances as may warrant this
bold stroke on the part OF the great
foreign bankers. 1t used to he the
boast of Mr.. Fisk, jr., that Wall-st. could not
buy Erie stock faster than he could print it,
The suspicious silence of the Controller has
fostered the fear that similar remark might
appropriately apply to the financial transaction
now in question. Let us have a clear and honest
report that may put an end to such apprehen-
sions and clear the financial fame of the City.
Or, if such report cannot be given, let us see
some official bold enough TO take the respOn-
sib;lity and tell the whole truth.
