considerable indignation is felt
among the members at the failure at the
War Department to notice in any way
the r cent action Of the House on the
West Point optrages. Its the opinion
of. members Of the Military Committee
that tile President, in order to screen his
son, will allow the whole matter to so by
default"
We see the same screening Of the fam
lily in his refusal to notice the charge Of
attempted bribery brought against his
father, the Postmaster at Coyington,
KY, by Assessor Stoms. We see it in
his removal of Commissioner Wilson,
to shield his father in-law. General Dent,
whom Wilson had prevented from ma

Colonel Lew. Campbell.

al ilss'F
A correspondent OF the Enanirer
says Of this gentleman;
Il saw Colonel Lew Campbell here
to-day The old veteran is as full OF
snap and vitality as ever, and seems to
be in good condition for the work be-
fore him. There is a little touch Of rust
in the folds Of that toga which he
throws over his shoulders, but there is
nothing in his well.worn, wiry face to
show that during three years of absence
from the Halls Of Congress lie has hung
like mail upon the wall sq,lite out Of
use." He seems in his natural element
here, and aside from the reputation made
in the past. he starts Off well now as the
man who met the Hyrcan tiger, ,Schenck,
and throttled him in a hand to hand
combat. That's a very nice feather in
the cap of man who would seek the
wholesome respect of.these Radical
wolves in Congress. Mr.. Campbell is
to occupy q seat in the House next to
that Of Mr.. Brooks of New York. They
were both old Wings in days gone by
and served as such in Congress together
The Democratic side OF the House this
session, with its ninety six votes, not
only looks encouraging numerically, but
1t contains rare per centage of legisla-
tive ability. The Radical majority will
find more than on. Ajax on that side oi

Died March 4. 1871.
Ik birth was amidst the throes Of an expiring
revolution.
Born without wisdom and living withoutmercy.
It died without regret.
Omitting all that was good in legislation,
1t approved al that was bad.
It laid the heavy hand Of power upon the States
and People,
Aud oppressed both By heavy taxation. vio-
lence aud constitutional innovation.
Rsfusiug equal laws to equal States,
And equal rights 10 equal people.
Itlegislated for classes Of people and sections
Of country,
Without regard to the greatest good OF the
whole country.
Nothing. in time, so became its life as the
hour Of its death,
When the Speaker in his place pronounced II
dead, dead. dead.

Ey There is a bill row on file in the
Senate of the United States to repeal
the law requiring distillers to use Tees
meter, because it is practically worth
less. That bill has passed the House.
But, the Senate refuses to take it up, In
connection with this case the Washing
ton Patriot makes an explicit charge that
the meters Were made i'll Cincinnati, un
der a contract with Judge Dunlevy, OF
Dayton. for $500 each, while the dis
tillers were made to pay $500, and that
the difference OF $500 on each meter
goes into tn. pockets of "Ring,
among which are included several mem
bers Of Congress. To such a complex
ion has Radical action and influence re,
duced our country and those who make
its laws

A Most Impuden, Move.

The coolest and most impudent po.
litical move that we have ever seen was
that of Garfield of Ohio, to induce the
old and expiring House of Representa-
tives to so change the long established
rules that a majority only, instead of
two thirds, should hereafter be authori.
zed to suspend them. The Republicans
have had the two thirds majority in the
last Congress. They have lost it in the
present, and hence the attempt to sur
reptitiously give the majority the power
Of two thirds. When the two-thirds
check upon hasty and corrupt legisla-
ton has been found often impossible to
defeat it, it would be bright idea truly
to &C further and enable a majority,
without restrictions of any kind, to sti-
file debate and to perpetrate any polite
al atrocity. Thanks to the firmness oi
the Democratic members 1t was defeated

A Good Reason.

''Can any reader tell why, When Eve
was manufactured from one of Adams ribs,
hired girl wasn't made at the same time to
wait on her p
We can, easily Because Adam never
came whining to Eve with ragged stock
ing to bo darned, collar string to be sewed
on, or glove to be mended fright away,
quick now p Because he never read the
newspaper until the sun got down behind
the palm trees, and then stretched himself,
yawning out, faint supper most ready my
dear I" Not he. He always made the fire
and hung on the tea kettle himself, We'll ven
ture, and pulled the radishes, and peeled
the bananas, and did everything else he
ought He MIXED. the COWS and fed the
chickens, and looked after the pigs himself.
He never brought home half dozen friends
to dinner, when Eve hadn't any fresh pome-
granates, and the mango season was over.
He never stayed out until II o'clock to a
s'ward meeting" hurrahed for the out and
outeandidate, andthen scolding because poor,
dear Eve was sitting up and crying inside
the gates 70 be sure, he acted rather cow.
ardly about apple gathering time, but then
that don't depreciate his general helpfulness
about the garden. He never played bill
lizards, nor drove fast horses, nor choked
Eve with cigar smoke. He never loafed
around corner groceries while solitary Eve
was rocking little Gains cradle at home
In short, he didn't think she was specially
created for the purpose Of waiting on him
and wasn't under the impression that it dis
graced man to tighten his wife's care lit
tie. That's the reason that Eve did not us'
hired girl, and we wish it was the reason
that none of her fair descendants did.

a few days ago, and, alighting from her
horse, went rapidly to drinking saloon,

ing ''high time" She singled out the
finest looking man in the crowd, and, walk

ordered him to put down the glass which he
was about to drain He dashed down the
glass and rushed away; the lady followed
and finally cornered him in the billiard
room She told him in firm, determined
voice that the place he was in and the course
he was pursuing, would not answer for her
husband that he was wasting her property
and that she would no longer consent to be
disgraced and impoverished by him. She
demanded his pistol. He refused. She
took it from him, cooked it and presented
it at him, told him he must leave or die

A Western Trick.

The Baltimore american says ~

State, we are confident that the settlers OF
Guthrie County, Iowa, could instruct him
in game he did not understand A real
estate agent at Panora, Guthrie County.
Iowa, explains on the reverse side of his
business card how it happens that the taxes
of non resident land owners are SO high in
that State. We publish it in full for the
benefit of the afflicted
M HIGH TAXES AND THE CAUSE.
Nearly three-fourths of the taxes in Iowa
are fer school purposes How applied p
In very thinly settled township, not more
than forty miles from here, man concluded
he must have school for his children
lie applied to the Board of Subj Directors
OF the township to have new district set
off, which will place him about tho centre
and alone in it.
He next elects himself sub director for
his district and again applies for an appro-
prlation to build school houss for this dis
trict, which is, of course, granted amount
ing TO from $500 1000. This money
he uses to build himself two-story house,
furnishing the upper story for school
room room. lie then uses the contingent fund to
buy himself cookstove to heat the school
room. He places the stove in the lower
room, which he occupies for his dwelling,
and passes the pipe up through the school
room, where he employs his wife as teacher
for probably $50 or $40 per month, and as
there are no children besides his own in the
district, his wife has an easy time Thus
the school fund furnishes him home, fuel,
employment for his wife, &c., and the non
resident land owners pay for it. This case
is not alone, bnt many other localities are
afflicted to greater Or less extent"
