IT is said before the grand duke left
Chicago, his imperial highDess handed to
Mayor Medill $4,000 for the benGt Of the
poor. He also passed over to the mayor
some thirty or forty letters received by him
while here, ell from females, asking for
assistance in some shape. One young lady
from western New York begged, through
six closely written pages, for sun to enable
her TO marry widower whom she loved
dearly, but they we're both so poor they
could not do it without the money. The
duke instructed the mayor II he found in
the letters any appeal that he desmed
worthy, to honor ii in moderate way.

a shot Between Wind and
Water.

Some time ago the Legislature Of Illinois
appointed . com ni,tso TO investigate Shsri-
dAn's military occupation Of Chicago. The
committee has concluded its lAbors, and
submitted the following resolutions for
adoption. We commend them to the pray
erful attention Of the Rock Island Union,
and the Republicans hereabouts who have
50 bitterly denounced Governor Palmer for
simply doing his duty as a citizen and
public officer. The resolutions breathe tine
spirit Of 'Ssysuty-Six. No military des-
potism will be oountsnsncsd IN the PrAirio
State.
Resolcei, That the late FIRE at Chicago
created no emergency for which the con
sutution and the laws aud the agencies
and resources Of the State Of Illinois
we're not equal, and that the act Of the
Mayor Of Chicago IN transferring the
government Of that city TO Lieut.. Gen.
Sheridan, aud the military fOrCss under
his Command, vas illegal and dangerous
example.
Resolred, That Lieut., Gen. Sheridan, in
accepting from the Mayor the alleged au
thoriiy to govern and control the people
Of Chicago by military forces, or the Au-
thoriIJ TO introduce regular troops idto the
city, or 10 raise vOunte srs, or call the
militia Of the State into service, acted il
legally, and such conduct was dangerous
IN example.
ReSolDed, Tha. the officers Of the army Of
the United States stationed In this State
have no power, right or authority to med
die with iu internal affairs, aud that the
conduct Of Lieut.. Gen. Sheridan in ordering
regular troops into this State, or requesting
four companies Of infantry to be stationed
ia this State for the reasons stated in his
letter to the AdjutAnt General Of the
United States of the 29th o. October, 1871 -,
has no justification, either In the conatitu-
ton aud laws Of the United States or of this
State
Resolrsd, That the order and direction
given by the general Of the army at WASH
ington, to four companies of infantry to act
As police in this State, are illegal and Of
dangerous example.
Resolced. That the President Of tAe
United States be requested to modify the
orders 90 the troops now at Chicago, so as
to prohibit them from interfering in the In
ternAl affairs OF this State, or that he with.
draw them from the State.
Resoioed, That the action Of the Gov.
ernor in protesting to the President
against sending United States troops to
Chicago, aud against their presence in
said city for the purpose Of police duty
and bis course in endeavoring to enforce
civil authority in ssid city for the protec
tion Of human life, is hereby cordially ap
proved.

beyond question. Senator Morton has
been compelled to cancel all his remaining
appointments on account of the serious
sickness of his wife. The Republican
meetings in the State have been better at
tended and more enthusiastic than those
of the Democracy, and every sign usually
relied upon to judge Of election results, goes
to inspire our friends with confidence.
The defeat of Niblack and Voorhees, for
Congress is predicted upon good grounds.
All the signs in the three States named
indicate o Republican victory that will
fill with joy the hearts of our friends
everywhere. These October elections,
however, do net fully present the issue be-
tween Grant and Greeley. Buckalew in
Pennsylvania and Hendricks in Indiana,
are old guard Democrats. They will poll
their full party vote. Those of their old
associates, Disguised with Greeley, will
still vote for them and with q united De-
mocracy and a strong Liberal Republican
reinforcement, the Democracy will do
better in October than in November. This
should be born in mind and the two cleo
tons not COMPOUNDED. A Republican de-
feat in October would simply mean an in
tensely exciting canvass through October
with final victory in November, whereas
a Democratic defeat in October means an
utter and final rout. A. j. h.
