10 Some of the salary grab
hers have been badly picked up.
They having written Ordway,
Sergeant alarms Of the House,
telling him that they did not in
tend to draw their back pay,
meaning thereby not until the
public clamor about the steal
subsidized. The latter applied to
the First Comptroller for advice.
He decided that the letters were
sufficient to authorize the trans
fer Of the money to the Treas
ury without any further author
ity. This will be matter of
surprise to large number, some
of whom had said they would
not draw their money until the
storm had abated and the mat
ter bad gone out of the public
mind. They supposed that they
could notify Ordway that they
did not intend to draw the mon
ey, and that it would thus lie
subject to their orders for two
years, when it would be turned
into the Treasury.

@ Speaking of the efforts
to get up some new party, to be
made up of those who are a.
shamed to belong to any party,
the Binghamton On. " Leader
thus aptly and forcibly says:
But we can see no good rea-
son for the Democrats desiring
a new party organization, and
the party is not, and will not
be, prepared to assume any new
name. We love the present
one and those who are not salts
fed with it had better walk out
of the ranks. The recent cleo
tons prove the party stronger
than it has been for fifteen years
previous, and for us to throw a.
way our bright prospects to
please a few who believe as we
do, but are so delicate they can
not accept our party name,is one
of the foolish projects the rank
and file do not propose to at
tempt again at the dictation of
a few fossil politicians.
The idea is idiotic that any
one should consider it necessary
that Democrats should give up
cherished principles, organiza-
ton and name in order to gain
the ascendancy against such a
crew Of contemplate, God-for-
saken political prostitutes as
lead the Radical freebooters,
The project is an insult to the
intelligence and honesty of the
people.

Excitement is the Order
of the Day.

Whilst no one feels their
scalp entirely secure in and for
miles around the lava-beds on
account of Capt. Jacks late de-
faint stand, and whilst we deep
ly deplore the shedding of hui
man blood, still our sympathy
is always for the ''bottom dog
in the fight" we have been at
the bottoma few times ourselves.
So in imitation of Captain Jack,
we have made a defiant stand
against high prices for goods,
and intend to eight it out on
this line," if it should take all
summer, and convince the pub
lie that the green brick front is
still the place for bargains. We
challenge the State to sell the
same class of goods cheaper
than we will.

~ The Republican Legi,

" The Republican Legis-
lature of Michigan appears to be
on par with the Republican
Legislature of Pennsylvania,
which adjourned few days ago,
and which was denounced by
the Philadelphia Press as the
most corrupt and ignorant body
that had ever assembled in that
State. The Detroit Union says
of the Michigan solons:
"The present Legislature will
do itself great credit when it
adjourns. AS has been said of
another body: not altogether
lovely in life, its chief merit
is to die. The members from
this city may have thorough
ly pleased some one else, but
they have thoroughly displeas-
ed their constituents. They
could not to-day get third of
the votes that elected them.
Party lines arc ignored in their
condemnation. Republicans
condemn them as thoroughly as
Democrats.

[@ During the past week the
Northern Presbyterian General
Assembly convened in Baltimore,
the Southern Presbyterian in
Little Rock, and the Cumberland
Presbyterian in Huntsville. On
Saturday Rev. DR.. Baird, of Nash
vile, representing the Cumberland
Presbyterians, was introduced to
the Assembly sitting in Baltimore,
and made overtures for the union
of the two churches. He said
the Cumberland Church was ready
to meet the Northern Church in
any negotiations for that end. A
committee was appointed to con-
slider the matter.

Plain Propositions.

Suppose that in the month Of
September last the Republican
managers had announced that
if they should succeed in the
approaching Presidential cleo
lion, one of the measures which
they would first enact would be
to raise the salary of President
Grant to $4,000 a year.
Suppose it had also been be-
lieved by the people that the
Republican majority in Con-
gress, after having been paid
the stipulated salary for their
services, would vote themselves
$4,000 each outof the Treasury
Or suppose that these two prop
ositions had been incorporated
in the Republican platform a.
dopted by the Philadelphia
Convention, by which Grant
was nominated for reelection
How many States would Grant
have carried? How many Re
publican Congressman would
have been reelected? Is it not
evident that Grant could not
have got a single State, and
that every Republican candidate
for Congress, running on such a
platform, would have been de-
feated?
All this being true, is it not
the insanity of public robbery
which has led Grant to lobby fol
the passage Of a bill through
Congress raising his own sala-
ry to $4,000 a year, and which
has led Republican Congress-
men to pass that bill? If they
dared not announce this enor.
nous act of robbery as a part
Of their plan before the elcc-
ton, how do they expect TIE
people to regard it after the
election.

Caterpillar Plague in Mis-
siSSippi. s

A Sardis, Miss, dispatch to
the Memphis Appeal, says:-
Perhaps not the least of all'the
causes of unpleasant apprehen-
sion and nervousness in this
region is the presence and the
astonishing ravages of those fur
ry little courses, "thecaterpillars.
They are here and there and ev-
ierywhere, out of doors, on the
houses, all over the houses, and
in the houses; on ones clothes,
in one's clothes, under ones
clothes, and all over one. They
have not only taken possession
of houses, trees, gates and fen
ces, but they have actually
marched in full force and taken
possession of the railroad, and
so firmly have they established
themselves upon it that a writ
of eiectment would have no more
effect toward removing them
than the sight of a mosquito.
They stop the cars. every day
more than once, and though the
iron-horse slaughters them by
millions upon millions, yet they
fall back in good order (the sur
vivors do), and before the next
train appears are sufficiently
reinforced to present a formida-
BILE front and offer a determined
resistance.
