1t is asserted, and the fact is pretty
well authenticated, that the carpet
bagger Patterson secured his election
to the United States Senate. by the
free use of money, having used for
that purpose, according TO report,
some $4,000. There are several per-
sons occupying seats in that august
body, who have obtained them by
like dishonorable means. Does any
one believe that we can have honest
legislation, in the interests of the peo-
pie and the country when such practi-
ces prevail? ? Does any one suppose
that these men will thus freely make
use of their money to obtain positions
without the hope of getting it all back
at compound in interest? The peo-
pie in the end pay for all this villainy
and as long as they continue to up
hold the party OF plunder they de-
serve to be pretty freely bled.

There is some encouragement in the

error to make the examination secret;
no adequate excuse was ever offered
for such course; and the sooner the
blunder is rectified the better for all.

and commend them to the careful con-
sideration of every one. The COM
mittee appeal to the people of the
United States to unite with them in
protesting against the tyranny and
usurpation that has stripped them of
the power of self-government, and by
the employment of Federal bayonets
compelled them to bow down to au-
thority of those wnom the people, at
the ballat-box have condemned. The
tyranny of which our fathers COM
planned was not more insufferable.
There never was anything more mon.
strous in country that professed to
be free, than the outrageous proceed
ings by which the people OF Louisiana
have been despoiled of their power OF
self-goyernment. And this is the
work of party protesting to be Re

that the Federal Judge before whom
Susan b. Anthony & Co. are to be
tried has avowed his determination,
in case of their conviction, of which
there is not g particle of doubt, to
visit on them the extreme penalty OF
the law-$500 fine and three years in
penitentiary. 1t will be very sad to
see these women consigned to State
Prison; but, as we all know, justice is
blind to any distinction of SEX. race,
color, or previous condition of setvi-
tude, and old silver-gray Judges have
hearts of stone.'
So the full penalty of the law is to
be visited upon these deluded women
while the judges of elections who re-
ceived their votes and deposited them
in the box, knowing at the time they
did SO that they had no right to vote,
are to go scot free. And that Is called
Justice!

THE CREDIT MoB1L1ER

Investigation will undoubtedly be
conducted in public after the assem-
bling of Congress. This will not be
done as matter of choice by the Re-
publicans, but because the outward
pressure is too great to be disregarded
even by the interruptions and defiant
leaders of the Administration party.
This Credit Mobilier business has de-
veloped itself into something besides
an electioneering bugbear, and as it
quietly progresses it is observed that
the digestive organs of some of the
most distinguished leaders of the
dominant party are becoming most
dangerously out of tune. s

ere the dappled east had yet opened the
gates of day to the rising sun, hastily
attired men and women, with half-nude
children in their arms, were out in the
street, breathing the precious air of the
purifying frost. Here, STOPPING down,

with which the Israelites gathered the

with reverential fingers the pure, cold
messenger Of health, as if to satisfy
themselves, like half-believing Thomas
of old, that the Saviour of the city had
not risen but descended from heaven,
to save the people from the desti Dying
angel of the pestilence. Groups of men
and women moved from place, to prove
by cumulative evidence that indeed it
was frost, and not some optical dclusion I;
that the wishetl-for guest had not merely
confined its visitation to one locality,
but enjoyed the freedom of the city.
Here q pale face, once a handsome wo-

men, bare headed ant. bare-armed, walk

in the fact that physician had come, to
