by somebody of dealing in Credit Mobil-
Ter stock; it is idle to say that he took the
back pay, as nearly the entire House did !:
it is idle to say that he was rebel and
fought against the Government in the hour
of its EXTREMIST peril. All these facts are
Legitimate considerations for the constitu-
ency when the man is a candidate, or
for the House when the man is sworn in A.;
but, being elected and sworn in, the
Speaker has no possible right to interpose
any discrimination whatever. To have
followed the sage advice Of some news
papers on the points involved Speaker
Blaine would have been compelled to
practically disfranchise nearly two hum
dred Representative Districts-or we'll
nigh two-thirtls of the whole United States
from all effective voice in the national
legislation. The country may well be
thankful that Speaker Blaine did not COM
nit himself to such an indefensible course ;
but that having full knowledge of the
laws of parliamentary organization, he
had the courage and the sense to follow
those laws, and let the clamor exhaust it
self with its own folly.

monstrate against forwarding supplies, or war
materials, with which the contest may be pro-
longed. The foreigners, who have heretofore
taken no part whatever in the politics of the
country, have in this instance, approved of,
and shown the warmest interests with, and are
loud in the expression of their sympathy and
hopes, for the success OF the besiegers of the
city. A revolution against such government
cannot be UNJUST surely, this is entitled to
to the worlds sympathy. The SANTANA Bay
Company must look on, and forward to the stir
ring events of the next few months, with the
most intense interest. The demand of the
accredited commissioner, to suspend payment
to Baez-by no means an unreasonable one
may at this critical moment, be considered in
a favorable light by the Company; but, if
Baez should continue to hold the reins Of
government, far into January, and the rental
for the bay and peninsula be not paid by vir-
tue OF the treaty, the company will have for
feited all claims thereto, and the treaty be
null and void, and thus will end in failure
one OF the grandest enterprises ever grasped
by American sagachy in a foreign land. The
greenbacks, that the company planted on the
peninsular of the royal valley, will not return
the 1000 per cent. as was first promised, and
would lave done, iftheir plans had been sue
cess. The condition of affairs now, very ma
terally affect the progress of the Company.
All employees are discharged, and operations
have virtually ceased. Yet, this may be only
temporary, in view of the fact, that the revo-
lutonary party are not unfriendy to the
Company, ard faithfully promise to execute
in full the treaty made with Baez.

THE WESTERN RAILROAD AND
FARMERS VAR.

Illinois is going forward steadily in the
experiment of regulating railroad tariffs by
law. The operations of the new law with
reference to freight rates is not definitely
determined but it is probable that an at.
tempt will be made by the railroads to. Sc.
cure under it an advance of local rates !. e..
rates within the State, amounting to some
thing like one third of those now charged
In this scheme the Alton and St. Louis road
has taken the lead, and if it is successful the
result to many of the business interests OF
the State will not be only Injurious, but in
some instances, ruinous. The railroads
will unquestionably have to meet their Gus.
toners in court, where the plea will be made
that any advance is unreasonable" charges.
which subject them, according to recent law
to heavy fines, ranging from $1,000 to S.
900, for the first offence, up to $25, 900 for
each offence subsequent to the third. On
the other hand, the working Of the law in
regard to passenger rates is likely to tend
to general reduction, estimated as likely
to briug the average rate as low as three and
q half cents per mile.

UTAH IN CONNECTICUT "A singular sect
hassecured footing at Wallingford, known
as the "Wallingford Community" 1t con-
sists OF about eighty individuals. one half of
whom are women. Their religion directs
them not to marry, but each one selects a
partner, and the two live together as hus
band and wife, four weeks, when general
change of partners is made in order that
there shall be no special affection-for all
are brothers and sisters" When children
are born the mother is allowed to retain the
child but few weeks, when it is placed in
the common nursery, and all the ''mothers"
ofthe establishment take turns in caring for
these children Of the community" This
strange people came from Northern New
Hampshire about ~ years ago, where the
citizens were unable to dislodge them
under the laws against prostitution, and
the Legislature passed special act which
obliged them to marry or leave. A few
of them came quietly to Connecticut, Sc
lected farm of 200 acres. with large
dwelling house, purchased it without sta

them under the existing laws. From that
time the community has not been dis

PROGRESS OF THE FARMERS MOVEMENT IN
IowA.-A dispatch says that the anti-mon-
opoly convention of Webster county, Iowa,
was held at Fort Dodge on Saturday. Web.
ster county has heretofore been strongly re-.
publican. The resolutions adopted declare
that the existing political organizations have
run their course that pure government
and low taxation are demanded that "the
office should seek the man, not the man the
office; )" and salaries and perquisites should
be so reduced as to starve out the "political
bummers, wire. pullers and Office seekers %
and that no support should be given by the
farmers to candidates who are pledged to a
political party The sixth resolution de-
clares that judicious revision and material
reduction OF the tariff would tighten the bur
dens now borne by industry, and denouures
all taxation for the benefit Of special Glasses
and int rests as unjust and oppres w.. aud
g bbery of the general public for favored

Ramsdell .;of Surry, for 1t. Governor, and
Judge D. G.. Fultz of Staunton for Attorney
General. In accepting the nomination, Col.
Hughes made speech in which the negro
receives so much attention taat one is led to
doubt whether white man rights are o.
any account atall. We doubt whether the
present ticket will receive even as many white
votes as the Wells ticket did.

A POLITICAL RETRLB UTION.

1t is favorite thought in New England
that South Carolina's condition to-day, un :
der the feet Of ignorant negroes, is a fit ret
ribution for her holding the advance in Sc
oession indeed she is pointed out to the
little children Of that pure land, as a SAM
pie of what God may do to very wicked
people who have put themselves out of reach
ofhis mercy. But now We have the picture
of Massachusetts with the cup of degrade
ton put to her own lips Ben. Butler is to
be her next governor Ben Butler, who
is despised among respectable people in biz
own State as much as he is hated in the
South. He has seized the Republican par
ty in his State by the throat, and is wrest.
Eng from it the nomination for Governor
despite the cries of the respectable portion
For they are crying out Justify. South Car
DINA deserved her degradation, but they
don't merit theirs, and they are telling the
nation so DANGEROUSLY. A meeting Of loo
prominent republicans took place il
Boston last week, including such men al
ex Attorney General Hoar, ex.speakel
Dawes and other men of that calibre. Ii
cir speeches they spoke of Butler as ''tha
man." They said, among other things,
that "every State in the Union was looking
to the issue of the contest with an anxiety
which cannot be appreciated here, to see
whether Massachusetts will take such po.
sition as to endorse the greatest disgrace
which has fallen upon the nation in the sal
airy grab, the chief organizer of which is
a claimant Of the highest Office in the com.
monwealth." It is very serious matter
for State of the standing of Massachusett
to have such man as Ben. Butler to dis.
grace her highest Office but how does Mas.

it after the war with nine.tenths of their Of
