The new Governor of Illinois is
said to be a man who never fills out
his term. The Chicago Erening
Journal relates the following of him
No sooner did General John f.
Beverage return from the war, in
which he was gallant cavalry Off
Ger, than he was nominated for
sheriff of the county, and elected.
Before his term as sheriff had ex-
PRED, he was elected State Senator.
Before his Office of Senator expired,
he was nominated and elected Con.
gresham for the State at large, to
fill the vacancy created by General
LOgan's resignation. Last fall, be-
fore his term of Congressman ex-
pired, he was nominated and elected
Lieutenant Governor, which posi-
ton he entered upon two weeks
ago; and now, Governor Oglesby
having resigned, General Beveridge
becomes Governor of the State.
Verify, he is one of the luckiest
men, politically in the. United States.

THROWING UP THE SPONGE
The Democrat has had chat with
an old reliable chum, and the cor
clusion they have conformity come
to, we give below. II we might be
allowed to do so, we would congratu.
late our contemporary at having thus
though SO late in the day, seen the
result which has all along been ap.
parent to .as, though not for the
same reasons, and ask him as a CO.
laborar in the vocation we belong
to, to join us in the endeavOr O.
throwing oil upon the troubled wa.
ters, and producing a better state
of affairs than he paints and pre-
diets. OLD RELIABLE will no doubt
doubt prove a true phrophet this
time, and substituting Republican
ism tor Radicalism, and other causes
besides Grant and Congress for the
result, we agree with our neighbor
in believing every word he uttered,
We had a chat with an old reliable chum
of the Democrat, few days since, and he
put our situation before us in nutshell
He holds that The McEnery ticket was fair
l. AL Il
acknowledgement by the powers that be, would
kill and damn the Radical party in Louisi-
ana and restore us to our Just rights and
save he State from ruin. But again Grant
and Congress are not going to ruin their
own party, hence we are bound to 90 under,
right OF wrong, and then Radicalism is pre-
served in Louisiana. We did not take issue
wit our old chum, but believed every word
he uttered.

EXTRAORDINARY BRIDGE.-TA

EXTRAORDINAY BRIDGE.-The
railroad bridge which is to extend
across the harbOr of San Francisco
from the main land to Goat Island,
and to which the citizents have
been strongly opposed, is to be some.
what of an architectural novelty. 1t
is to run through an immense tube
of boiler iron, which supports itself
by its own buoyancy, and is held
thirty feet below the surface by a
complicated system of cables, an.
chors and buoys. The tube is twen-
ty feet in diameter and is strength
ened by an internal framework of
iron beams. fhe principal problem
with the engineer was to have
the buOyancy of the tubes equal to
the weight of a train of cars, SO as
to acquire the minimum of anchor
age or support. Should the bridge
prove a success, submarine railroad
tubes may be use where regular
tunnels would be impracticable, or
at least very expensive.

A crowd of passenger and nearly
a full load OF cotton, again demon

folks, had not given up an old friend
for new acquaintance, and that
the opposition was not hurting so
badly, that it could not be with

THE LATEST NEWS,

By mail under DR.. Petersons con-
tract, we have received the New Or
leans Republican, of Sunday and
Tuesday last. The extracts we give
confirming the truth of the report
of the action of the Congressional
Committee as altogether favorable
to the Republican party, are taken
wholly from the Sunday paper, that
of Tuesday saying very little about
it, from which we conclude the stu
alton was unchanged. These ex-
tracts, and the comments and specu-
lations of the fusion papers in New
Orleans, prove conciusively that it
is the general opinion of the reflect
ing and reasoning portions of each
political party, that the conflict is
now virtually settled, and that we
may soon look for the quiet Undue
ton of Republicans in various off,
ccs, to which they are entitled by
the will of the people, and the es-
tablishment of law and order once
more, instead Of the condition of
vexation and uncertainty into which
we have fallen of late.
The following telegraph from fu-
siOnists at Washington, to fusiOnists
in New Orleans, conveys the great
est comfort now to be given, rather
cold comfort in comparison to their
once exalted hopes.
WASHINGTON, February 15-So new de-
velopments in Louisiana affairs beyond
confirmation that Carpenter wild make a
report about the middle of next week.

qua nos in Louisiana affairs, The people

The Benefits Of Recognition.

The Senate Of the United States
recognized the Kellogg government
when u threw ont tho vote Of tho
State, for II declared by that net
that the Lynch Hawkins board was
tho proper authority 10 make return
IN the promises. IL distinctly fepul
dated the McI;pery government BY
declaring That the returns III its
favor were not made out by the pro.
per returning board, and that there.
fore 10 had no legal cxistence what.
ever, not even to make ~ showing
In an issues outside of ihe State.
The government further recognized
the authority of Mr. Kellogg when
1t placed Its troops mt his disposal +.
and 1t still recognizes him by main,
tanning the same attitude. Let Nc.
Emery ask for troops OF commit a
disturbance IL he is anxious to test
the matter OF his status at Wash.
iogton. Congress has adhered 10
the position taken by the President
in its rejection of the certificate of
Governor WarmOth. Thus the ex-
ecutive, judicial and legislative de.
partments of the national authority
have decided upon the status of Mr..
Kellogg, and the decision by the
federal government corresponds
with that made by our State au-
thOrities. The question is, therefore,
closed to all the modes OF peaceful
discussion, and Mr.. McEnery knows
it, for lie invites into the field the
bloody arbitrament of the sword.
This demonstrates the desperation
of the man and faction, and should
prove to the people that they have
escaped a great evil in escaping
from the control that such men at.
tempted tO:establish over the State.
The men who are willing bllndly To
provoke war upon their friends in
order to promote themselves or to
overthrow their enemies, are not
safe to be trusted with power, for
they might not be willing to lay it
down when their day of authority
was spent. Indeed, it is most for
tunate that the State has been SO
thoroughly recognized, otherwise
we might have trouble at the hands
of men whose disposition to hold
office is superior to their disposition
to regard the regular forms in OBJ
tanning the same.-[N. o. RepabH-

A Chicago Journal claims that
farming does not pay as well in the
Southern States as it should, and
attributes the fact to high rates of
freight charged by the railroads.
The Illinois Legislature passed a
law restricting railroads from charg.
ing more than three cents a mile for
passengers, and also limiting and
regulating freight charges. This
law has been virtually ignored by
the railroad companies, and has re-
suited in great many lawsuits, the
companies evidently hoping to wear
out opposition by litigation. But
the farmers are now resOrting to the
same game of legal tactics.
