THE kU- KLUX lNvEsTIGATIoN.-It will
be remembered that the committee of the
House of Representatives did good service
during the Kansas troubles in exposing the
cruel outrages of the Buchanan Admins
tration. What they did for single Terri
tory the Congress committee has been do
ing for the whole South. The Resident
Republican Executive Committee publish
ed, some weeks since, 4 digest of facts
established by the examination of Ku-klux
witnesses during the two mt hs the Con
gress committee were in session, which is,
indeed, a terrible summing up. 1t is an
indictment of the Democratic party; and if
its counts be proven, the exposure which
they make, when taken in connection with
that of the New York riots, leaves any
decent man that belongs to that party with
out excuse. 1t loves darkness rather than
light. 1t moves Acheron. Itperverts to
its purpose secret organization that
honeycombs the whole South. 1t has estab
lished a reign of terror. Teachers and
Methodist ministers are its marked victims,
and intimidation, torture, and murder its
chosen means for regaining power.
The South is, at the present moment, in
worse condition than Ireland. The strug-
gle of these assaSsins. who seek to strike
down light, liberty, and religion in the per-
sons of their self sacrificing advocates, is a
desperate one; but the issue cannot be
doubtful Were it so we would doubt of
human nature itself But if the one side
wraps itself in midnight secresy, the other
diffuses light. If on the one hand there
are drunken politicians, on the other there
are ministers of the Gospel. If the one
cause arms murderers, the other animates
martyrs. If the one party allies itself with
all that is bad, the other will rally to itself
all that is good. Merely to state the sew
eral parties in such a struggle is clearly to
indicate it's issue.-MontreaE Witness

The first reported case of yellow fever
at Charleston occurred on August 11th.-
From that date to September 1st, there
were twenty seven deaths twenty-five
white persons and two colored). A change
in the weather has produced a marked
effect upon the progress of the disease, and
on the I'd instant no new cases were report
ed. 1t is hoped that it will not take on an
Epidemic form, and that the worst is over.

Democratic Extravaganza vs.. Republican
Economy.

In 1868 the courts of New York city cost
$139,2OO. Since then six judges have been
added to the bench, and the expenses
increased to $661, 500.
The judiciary of Maryland, in 1866,
under Republican government, cost the
State $50, 343.41.
The same judiciary, in 1870, under Dem
ocratic government cost the State $780, 317-
SO, nearly one-third more in this single
item of expense.
In 1865 the tax for county purposes, in
Cecil county, under a Republican admins
tration, was SAG, G4S03. The present county
levy, published in The Wig last week,
shows the levy for county expenses-the
school tax is not included in either year
to be $75, ,4S4.74, pretty nearly double,
under Democratic rule, for taking care of
the roads, courts, poor, ETC.; and the roads,
correspondent in last weeks Democrat
says, were never in so bad condition as at
present. Verify, we are utterly at loss
to account for sensible people supporting
such party. If merchant or master
mechanic should employ laborers who cost
him thirty to fifty per cent. more than he
could get the same work done better for
by employing another set of hands, and
would persist in such folly, every man Of
business notions would pronounce him
crazy. Is it less mark of insanity to aid
in having public affairs so administered?

THE NEXT GOVERNOR OF MARYLAND
"A CORRESPONDENT of the Philadelphia

their attractive performances at the

largely attended as they should be. The
operattas of the Sappho Troupe are in
teresting performances, while the won

gymnastic feats in an astonishing man

effectively rendered in most musical
manner. The duos, "Amici and Ben

others, we're perfect gems. The rich,
flexible and cultivated voice Of the lead

sweetest music, aud was thoroughly en-
joyed by the visitors. One Of the gems
of the evening was the charming solo

Mrs. Bclcher and choir. This lady is
well known amateur vocalist. She pos
sesses highly cultivated voice OF rare
sweetness and power. In the Gloria
in Exeelsis last evening her voice rang
outin tones ofgreat depth and volume, fill

concert was successful in every respect,
and its repetition would be hailed with
delight and largely attended. ;

THE ACT OF DEsPoTIsM.

The Democratic papers of the North
are denouneing with honest Indignation
the recent act Of despotism passed by
the House. The Cincinnati Enquirer
thinks at can only be compared, in the
atrocity of its despotism, TO some Of the
fearful acts which the British Parliament
in former ages adopted in relation to
Ireland, or to some Of the Imperial ukases
of the Gar Of Russia in reference 10
Poland. Indeed, the bill must have been
based upon and suggested in its material
features by these comparisons. Ameri-
can original iniquity could hardly have
invented such tyranny. II authorizes the
President to suspend the writ Of habeas
corpus this pleasure to proclaim martial
law, aud to employ the military power Of
the United States to Cypress aud destroy
his political enemies. There is not a
man south of Mason and Oixon's line
If this bill passes, who will not hold his
life, his liberty and property simply at
the pleasure of Gen. Grant. Elections
in all that section Of our country are,
during the continuance Of this bill
simply impossible. 1t is the establish
ment of dictatorship Of an Emperor
under the name Of President We dc
mot know that this will create any sen
sation or even a ripple upon the placid
surface of our politics. We are getting
used to despotism very fast. and its en-
eroachments seem to inspire no alarm
or apprehension. The dominant party
in Congress are acting upon the idei
that a majority Of the people Of thu
North are brim-full of prejudice an'
hatred against those Of the South
and will gladly sanction any oppres
sive measures that may be adopte'
that have this for their object The,
