STICKS TO SooTr.-The Cincinnati En-
quirer, in an elaborate editorial, gives it's
reasons for sticking to Tom Scott as proper
candidate of the democracy for the Presidency.
1--WE have" 1t says, "after full consideration,
come to the conclusion that Colonel Scott COM
bines more Of the elements Of success before
the people than any other democrat, and we
have not therefore, hesitated to abandon our
personal favorite, and urge upon the democracy
the nomination of this distinguished Pennsyl-
vanian." After this we suppose all the demo-
cratic coons will have to do as an ancient one
did when another Colonel Scott aimed his
rife at him. ''Is that you, Colonel Scott3"
asked the coon. s'It ar no one else." swell,
don't shoot, Colonel Scott; I'll come down."
1t remains to be seen whether the old coons in
the democratic party will adopt this policy or
act upon the Missouri possum game and keep
shy.

THE REVOLUTIONARY MOVEMENT IN MEx1-
oo.-A HERALD special telegram, dated at
Matamoros, Mexico, reports the progress Of
the revolutionary movement against the exist
ing government of the republic to the 4th inst.
The exhibit is Of discouraging character.
The country appears to be still harassed by
the military movements of insurgent chieftains,
now in advance and again in retreat, at very
important points of the national territory.
Government cavalry ''forsged" from Saltillo
They encountered body of insurgent troops,
and were driven back with heavy loss. The
garrison Of the place was reinforced and the
position fortified by Trevino. The predatory
chieftains were still agitated for and against
Juarez New fights were anticipated. It was
said that Carvajal-whose> name is so we'll
known In the United Ststes-was maturing
another revolution, so that Mexico remained
pretty much as it has been during years past ;
and ''the end is not" yet.

South Carolina declared the laws of the State
were equal to the emergency. After all, the
lawless acts Of the Ku Klux were confined
chiefly to sparsely settled, small sections of
the Carolinas and part of Georgia bordering
South Carolina, where there have always been
a degraded and uneducated class of poor
whites. Three-fourths or more of the crimes
committed in these parts have been wrongly
attributed to the Ku Klux. Many, in fact,
have been committed by the negroes
and their radical carpet-bag allies who
pretend to have such horror Of the Ku Klux
Apart from some outrages committed by the
Ku Klux-bya few degraded and ignorant
whites or misguided young white men Of parts
Of the Carolinas and Georgia, the whole
trouble is political. First, the radical party
in power at Washington and their negro and
carpet-bag allies in the South have combined
to oppress the Southern whites and to hold
the political power in that section. On the
other hand, the native whites, who are for the
most part democrats, have run into excep-
tionable or even lawless means to overthrow
radical rule. 1t h dreadful state Of things,
and both retards the peaceful development of
the South and endangers the fundamental prin-
ciples of liberty on which the republic rests.
Are We to have chronic Ireland or Poland
on American soil? Il sectional animosity
or trouble to be kept up for political
ends? The dominant radical party is
strong now, and there is every pros
pect that General Grant will be re-
elected. Why, then, cannot the disabilities
of the Southe-ners be removed and a kindly
hand be extended to them? Surely it is time
to bury the sad memories Of the war and to
restore the South. Surely there should be
some consideration for and some abatement Of
severity to the people of our own race and
blood. Every right thinking Northerner must
regret to see the intelligent people Of his own
race in the South placed under the heel Of
ignorant and emi-barbarous negroes. We do
not think General Grant and the radical party
can make anything politically by their policy
of repression and by attempting to make the
negro rule the white man. If broad and
liberal policy be inaugurated we shall hear
no more of Ku Klux, federal bayonets may
be withdrawn, the civil law will be found
sufficient enough, and the South will rise
from the disasters of the war to degree Of
prosperity it never attained before.

SENATOR SoHURz, SPEAKER BLAINE AND
GENERAL BUTLER are supposed to be con-
cocting some political conspiracy at the Fifth
Avenue Hotel, where they are all sojourning
together, and it is rumored that Senator Conk-
ling is expected to join them soon. If the
consultation means anything at all-and it is
hard if three such men cannot happen under
the same roof without exciting apprehensions
Of dire conspiracy among our patriotic peo-
ple-it means that the friends of General
Grant are taking the most reasonable and
likely means Of binding up the wounds that
disable the republican majority in Congress-.

SHALL TUE COMMITTEE OF SEVENTY Be
PERPETUAL?-The Boston Advertiser is Of
the opinion that the Committee Of Seventy
should not become permanent institution,
and argues taat il the people Of New York city
are In earnest in the work Of reform they can
In the future labor more effectively by other
means. ''If they have simply passed through
brief season Of virtue" continues the Adver-
tiser, ''the committee will be powerless to
keep them up TO their good resolutions" The
doings of the next Legislature will probably
demonstrate whether the people Of New York
have or have not passed through only "a brief
season Of virtue" By the acts Of the re-
formers 80 ye shall know them"

WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH THE GAs?-The
gaslights in our streets are like the expiring
chickering's Of farthing candle. They do not
between pedestrians on the sidewalks nor
between vehicles in the streets. Is there no
remedy for this abominable nuisance? The
gas companies are not mixed up in the muni-
cipal muddle, and have no excuse for the
present lack Of light. We hope these few
words will bring the companies to realizing
sense of the darkness Of the present situation.

announcement that the Americus Club has

an individual who has revelled in the bounties
Of the defunct Ring in this city. The
''Tiger's" welcome growl will no longer be
heard. ''Big Six" will no longer invite ''the
boys" to the groaning festive board, to the
gorgeous ballroom, to the grand tStes cham
petres at Indian Harbor, where guest could
keep jolly while the season lasted, or as long
as he behaved himself Well may the men,
bers of the Americus Club and their many
friends exclaim, FAREWELL long farewell
to all our joys; farewell to champagne, to
canvasbacks, to salmon, to speckled trout;
there's nothing left but eel soup and clam
chowder for the boys"

THE CRY OFFICIALS IN BROOKLYN generally
hold strongly to the opinion that no frauds
have been committed in Office. They do not
deny that there have most likely been out
rageous repeating and ballot stufing at the
election; but they believe that both parties
are implicated in such rascality, and that the
ofice-holders who compose the ''Ring" are as
innocent az lambs. That is a hopeful way to
look at 1t; but 1t is discouraging to remember
that Tweed and his fellows looked at their
own case pretty much in the same way several
months aRo.

THE ASSOCIATION FOR THE CURE OF me
BRIATEs held its second annual Convention
yesterday, when some facts were adduced
relative to drunkenness that are likely to serve
the good purpose of temperance societies more
completely than any sermons or comments.
DR.. Parker, the President, stated that thirty
three and third per cent of all deaths in this
city were occasioned, directly or indirectly,
by the use Of alcoholic drinks, and that in the
last thirty years one hundred and ninety thou
sand persons in New York city had thus come
to their deaths. DR.. Harris, Inspector Of
Prisons, stated in his report that on visiting
ffty-six prisons in the State he had found
that seventy five per cent Of all crimes COM
mitted were traceable to the use of liquors.
These statements are enough to startle order
loving and philanthropic people from their
propriety, especially when 1t is known that
the Excise law, even modified as it was by the
last Legislature, is simply dead letter. DR..
Parker held that drunkenness was q disease
like scarlatina or smallpox, and therefore
durable; but viewed in that light it is even
more requisite than ever that the unresirained
sale Of liquors in this city at all hours Of the
day and night and during every Sabbath
should become the subject Of strong and earn
est legislation.

The Troy Wing (republican) declares that
Tammany ID not killed. II has only been
beaten at q single election. The only way to
destroy Tammany, according to the WAig, is
to repeal its charter (Which was granted in
1903 or l8O5), otherwise the Society will be
the nucleus of strong political faction" Our
rural friends seem to entertain the notion that
Tammany possesses the eyes of Argus and the
arms Of Briareus, as well as the riches Of
Crnsus. When the charter of the Tammany
Society Is repealed then it will be time for the
sachems and braves to sell out their wampum
and smoke their calumets Of peace in peace
and obscurity. 1t would not however. be
matter Of much surprise to find that when
the test touching the repeal Of the charter ID
made there are about as many influential
republicans who were original Tammany men
ss there are democrats now actively working
Ia the organization. Tammany is something
like . certain jointed snake they once had
down South. Hit it crack and it would fy
into hundred pieces, but let 1t alone few
minutes and it would rejoint itself and become
as lively and cheerful as ever. sswhat will
they do with it2" will be an interesting question
for the next Legislature to decide when the
subject Of repeating the Tammany charter
comes before it.

THE DEPARTURE OF THE HON. CHARLES
FRANCIS ADAMS FOR GENEvA.-Yesterday
the Hon. Charles Francis Adams sailed in the
steamer Tripoli for Europe, to join the
Geneva Conference. The selection of Charles
Francis Adams as United States Commissioner
to the Geneva Conference was as much q
credit to the good sense and sound judgment
Of President Grant as it was o satisfaction to
the American people. At most critical time
In our national history Mr.. Adams represented
the United States at the Court of st. James,
and his conduct Of affairs was such that, while
he won the confidence Of the British govern
ment and people, he disappointed no one at
home. At the Geneva Conference, assisted
as he is to be by gentlemen 80 learned and 80
accomplished as Mr.. Evarts and Mr.. Curtiss,
we may rest assured that Mr.. Adams will not
misrepresent the sentiment or neglect the
interests Of the American people.
