why Nosr

All sorts Of schemes and candidates
have bsen discussed BY the Democracy
for the coming Presidential canvass,
with no ether effect than 70 show the
utter hopelsssnsss Of making another.
There 10 one and only one practical
way out Of their troubles. That 10 the
one We have urged upon their respect-
ful confederation, namely. to accept
the inevitable, and 90 in for making
the n. election of Grant unanimous.
AZ yet they do not seem to take kindly
to the suggestion, but they may yet
adopt 1t with cordial unanimity. Why
not?
They cannot possibly elect straight
Democratic candidate. This they are
al beginning either openly or tacitly
to concede. They cannot agree upon
any half.snd-haif, no party man.
Tney cannot Induce any Republican
with any wit In hts head to take .
nomination from them. II they
could hs would be overwhelmingly
beaten. A large proportion Of the
Democratic masses would vote for
Grsnt IL preference. They have moth.
Ing to loss and everything to gain BY
an" era OF good feeling, hks that in
the days Of Monros. Il may require
: little conqusring Of pride, little
yielding Of habituai partisan feeling,
but there Il really no othsr scheme
that offers any hope. This policy, on
the other hand, Il sure to succeed. Al
who vote for Grant will be on th,
winning side. Those who merely 70
main quiet and do not oppose him vii
not be humiiiatsd by another defeat
Let sensible Dsmocrats think th'
matter over. Let them ahandon al
other devices and try this winnial
policy. Again " ~, Why not?-

Summers Resolution on the Sale of Arms
10 the French-Biil to Repeal Duty on
Tea and Coffee.
WASHINGTON, February l4.-Senate.-NTr.
Summers resolution of inquiry, regarding
the sale of arms to the French, occupied the
entire day. The discussion was bitter, and
confined entirely to the Republican Sen
ators. The Senate adjourned without ac-
ton.
Mr. Sumner insisted that it was designed
for the vindication of the United States
government from the suspicious entertained
by Germany and the present French COY
ernment. Mr. Sumner made a long speech
showing that the United States government
sold arms to Richardson, representing Rem
ingtOn e. Son as agents, to the French gov
ernment. and that the French government
paid more than our government received.
Wilson. Harlan and COnkling defended
the administration; asserted that Che War
Department had accounted to the treasury
for all arms sold, and acknowledged that
Remington or Richardson acted for the
French government.
HOuse-Mr. Finklenburg, in reporting a
bill for the repeal of the duty on tea and
coffee, stated that the ma jOrity of the Com
mittee on Ways and Means were opposed to
repeal
Naval appropriations occupied the day.
There was lively debate in the Senate on
Mr. Summers resolution to inquire into the
alleged sales of arms to known agents of the
French government. Messrs. COnkling,
Morton and other Grant Republicans pro-
fessed to be willing to investigate, but de-
nounced the resolution as an attack on the
administration.

taken and destroyed by United States
troops in. King and Queen county, Virginia:
The acts done upon which this claim is
based seems to have been the ordinary re-
suits incident to the march OF an invading
army and hostile territory, with possibly
some authorized acts Of destruction and
pillage by the soldiery, with no proof of ap-
preparation by the United States. Under
such circumstances there is no ground Tor
a valid claim against the United States. The
c,am is, therefore, disallOwed. The COM
mission then adjourned until March 20.
