Want to be Corrupted.

The Gazett&ays that Colt McGehcc. White
Stewart and Williams had the manhood To
vote against the railroad bill This was their
privilege and their right. and we have no
word of censure against either one OF them
for doing So.
But, says the Gazette cone of these par
ties informs IA that lie was offered ten thou
sand dollars in bonds and five Thousand dol
lar, in money il he would support the bill. "
We say tha' the statement is Il lie. The truth
Of the matter is. that three Of the number
which the Gazette now pats on the backs. de-
manded both money and bonds to support the
bill and it was refused on the ground that If
bill could not be passed upon it, merits that
its friends would not buy it through We
know. and know it we'll that if the friends Of
the bill had desired to purchase votes they
could have done so. tor men came to the
friends of the bill and wanted them To pay
for democratic votes. which were offered in
lot. of from six aud a high up A. nine az five
thousand dollars apiece. From wha, we can
see. and from the men who are opposin" the
| bill. we think their opposition to it arises
from the fact that they have not been bribed.
L. Il Republican.
These are bold assertions. and should not
remain unrelntvd. White. from this District,
is one Of the parties. to which the crime of
offering his vote for sale. is implied in the
statement Of the RepuJijcdq. 1t is time that
bribery and corruption in legislative assem-
I blies are brought to an end. BE he democrat
or republican let his head 20 to the block. 1t
has more the appearance. to uS. of Jack Ne
! Clure's bluff, than anything else.
NANEs WANTED.
! The Republican, Of Saturday. asserted that
certain parties had proposed to sell from six
| to nine Democratic votes upon the Railroad
| bill. Oh the evening OF the same day. We are
informed that the judicial editor OF that paper
said that the agent OF the proposed sale was a
negro. and that the oller was made to him,
and further. that the negro was the go-be-
tween. or broker in 4 previous Transaction OF
the same Kind VIII the Republican name

That Last Bear Hunt.
DEAR DUSAAM:

DEAR DUSHAM:-
1t seems that Black Bears have been pllag-

strange in that-although some folks say etc
But it seems from notice in last PRESS, that
a real bear Mas been snatched from his rela-
tinn-. and BY whom as per statement all looks
very nice to a nigger on the wood-pile Bat
Certain ineredulous people. who are always
looking into other peoples business, and have
Keen noses on track of bear, have been
openly repudiating your statement OF the
facts as set forth in the complimentary notice
ofthose three distinguished sportsmen named.
Ii certainly will not be questioned that real
bears foot was shown and certified to by a
nice old gentleman, whose word is never
doubted as it Is believed there is not hair
between him and heaven" and he, this nice
old gentleman. AYERS emphatically. etc. And
if confirmation were necessary who would
doubt the testimony of the enthusiastic
sportsman whose name appears second in the
notice. Unfortunately for these two, there is
= third party that, unlike them, cannot learn
the drill and when called on to state when
where and how the Bear Hunt was
it is said. could not lie. and yet unlike Oaks
Ames had not lost hi, recollection in the case
But thinks the matter would have looked bet
ter. If one Smith had not claimed and proved
the KILN. and possession of the bear which
he. Smith, did not even divide. 7.

might be added by an honest man. but per

il his conscience does tell him he took the
$500 from the Railroad ring. This is of course
only supposed ease. but 1t my happen, Now
We have oIy to say that the men who voted

The Chief Justice Raises His Little
Lash" Over the Governor.

II Gov Baxter does not like the railroad
bill, it j. his province to veto it, and send It
back to the House with his objec, ions. Should
he do so, We shall not complain. The veto
power was conferred upon the Governor. not
.r0r the purpose Of c0ntrOHiHg legislation. but
for the purpose OF directing the attention Of
the Legislature to defects in the law and to
give time for a second sober thought.
The poLicy Of the law is II question, not for
the Governor. but for the General Assembly.
The members Of the Legislature are repre-
sentatives Of the people. and charged not only
with the determination OF the policy any ex-
pediency Of the law, but it'll its making.
The Governor may think n law ill-adviscd,
and ii so. should veto it, and give his reasons
for so doing. If the Legislature should dis
agree with him. they have a perfect right to
do so. without being charged with corruption,
or having their motives impngned. When the
Governor has vetoed . bill, he has discharged
his duty under the Constitution. and there his
duty should ends Should he attempt to exer-
else his appointing power and executive in
