for which all the members and all the
employees of the General Assembly were to
be fined to the amount of their pay for
the session. But the averments OF the
petition, though taken by the court to be
true because there was no formal traverse,
were not sufficient to make case. The
court could find nothing in the petition
nor the remarks of counsel upon which
to hang judicial point. So MIR. Rich
ardson was permitted to retire. He can
now sell out his Louisiana property as
soon as he likes, at such prices as he can
get.
We recognize in this ,faMr pas the hand
of the revolution that began in this city
last July. In that month it first appeared
in the Press convention, again came forth
in more decided relief in the Gatling-gun
convention, and finally eliminated in
January. Beaten at all points, the tagged
and jaded end of the conspiracy was yes
terday dragged into the United States
Court, where it was held up to ridicule by
its pretended friends, until it could re-
ceive judicial rites of burial. The attempt
to injoin the payment Of the contingent
expenses of the General Assembly was the
last expiring gasp of that faction that set
out to rule OF ruin the State. And a
weaker attempt to vent ill-concealed spite
has rarely been seen.
Fortunately, no embarrassment was Gre
ated by it. The officers OF the two
houses continued to discharge their minis
terial duties in the face Of the pompous
notice Of the attorneys that they were
about to ask permission to do something
dreadful. Upon the principle, sufficient
for the day is the evil thereof, all hands
postponed feeling bad about it until the
proper moment for grief and tears should
come.
Will Messrs. Grow, Billings and Cotton
give us all timely notice Of the next suit
Of the kind they bring before Judges
Woods and Durrell?

THE PROPOSED DEGLUTITION,

That political Mahomet, otherwise
called the Reform party, has called upon
the mountain as, 000 Republican voters
to come to it. The traditional expectation
of compliance is doubtless entertained,
and the old alternative will be the result.
The mountain did not go to Mahomet but
the latter went to it. And so it will prob
ably be again. The Republican party is
able to absorb handful of reformers who
have become dissatisfied with their pres
ent political associates in the Democratic
party, and to make better citizens of them.

PREMATURE TEARS.

The Times and Picoy,me have wept
copiog'sly for forty-eight hours past over
what they dolorollsly termed another at
tempt to rob the people through the me-
dunn of another waterworks bill, which
they declare had passed both branches of
the Legislature, and which they appeal to
the Governor to veto.
Without noticing here the fact, made
obvious by their comments, that neither
of these would-be public instructors has
the remotest conception Of the provisions
of the measure they criticise, We will in
form them that the House last evening
refused to suspend the rules to take up
the bill asserted by them to have already
passed!
Tell the people some more little fables,
Messieurs Reformers. 1t does not hurt
them, and amuses us.

than five instead of ten per cent, and that
by the Governors direct efforts this was
reduced one halt, leaving by no means ex-
orbitant balance when his expenses are
paid and the estimate of fees based on
actual collections. The rates of collection
in other districts were cut down proper
tionately Except the Fifth and Sixth, the
calculation being made upon the costs and
difficulties of collection.
So all its startling periods and indig-
nant invective go for naught. We do not
expect the Times to admit it or correct its
SANDERS but we have the satisfaction Of
again pointing out how desperately driven
are the enemies of the administration.

BOnapartlSm in France calculated

Bonapartism in France calculated
strongly upon the favor Of the
clergy because the Empress Eugene
has always been so fixed in her friend
ship for the Pope, and SO devoted to
the Catholic religion. The provinces were
always strongly imperiaistic in their pro-
clivities, and the republicans have directed
most Of their precautions against the Bona
partists in the country where the priests
had the greatest influence. The Pope has
discounted this reliance of the Bonapart
lists, it is thought, by his late letter to the
Catholics of France in favor of the Duke
de Chambord, representative of the elder
branch of the Bourbons, through Henry
~. The Duke is an old fogy, and his
term ofofice would hardly endure through
the life of the venerable Pope who i1fdorses
him. France requires q young, bold and
