1t gives us sincere pleasure to publish
the following, which we copy from a
correspondence of the ,SIatinti dated,
Long Branch, n. J., June 9th, 1873.
What your correspondent has heard
on this point he gets but one remove
from the President himself, and through
a source which he is rot at liberty to
mention, but which may be accepted as
perfectly reliable.
1t has been generally understood that
this appointment would not be made
until after the assembling of Congress in
December next. This understanding is
correct. the President stating to the per-
son referred to, that the appointment
would not be made until that time. He
had. however, thought considerably Of
the matter. and had in his mind several
men in connection with it, prominent
among them being Judge Howe, of Wis
consiu. He expressed the highest opin
qualifications of the Judge, and while he
had not made up his mind and would
not before the time mentioned. and that
his present opinions or intentions might
change, yet among all those mentioned,
none occupied better place than Judge
Howe; in fact, that the appointment lay
between some three or four of whom the
Judge stood With the best. This is the
substance of long conversation, with
the addition that IN the course of the
conversation the President announced
it his intention to be careful in his ap-
pointment, that the appointee shall be
right on questions or issues involving the
results of the war, which may come up
for judicial decision

A POSTAL PLATFORM.


The unfair legislation of the last Con-
gress, discriminating in favor of news
paper monopolies and against the coun-
try press, is eliminating in movements
which may soon become very formidable
The large New York literary weeklies
were strong enough to impose this trick
upon the nation at moment when few
Congressional leaders We're angered at
the abolition of some of their special
privileges, but in aiming their blow at
the country press they have awakend a
power mnch greater than their own, and
one which needs only fair field to sweep
everything before it. The New York
Ledger has no political significance, tho
oppressed to all parts of the continent,
while almost every country paper has a
direct influence upon Congressional
vote. With this immense lever. and de-
claration of intentions made by the Edi-
torial Convention of Ohio, it is not hard
to predict the future. Here are the reso-
lutions, not only spunky but reasonable
and fair in their several propositions
Resozced. That this meeting of editors
in convention assembled, request our Rep
resentatiyes and Senators in Congress TO
favor and support an amendment to the
present postal law, graduating the rates
of newspaper postage, as IN their judg-
ment may be equitable in its operation
on the newspaper press, namely: Arate
within the county where the newspaper
is published !; rate within the Congress
sional district, and outside of the coun-
ty where the paper is published a rate
within the State, and outside the county
where the paper is published !; and rate
out of the State were published. And
also to amend the postal laws so as to
prevent the evasion of postage on news
papers by means of express carriage. -
Resolred, That the members of this
Convention request the concurrence of
the editors and publishers of the several
States in securing the adoption of such
a measure as we have proposed In the
above resolution.
Resolred. That the editors and pub
fishers of Ohio regard rs passed the abo-
Etion of the Frankfng Privilege, and ASK
no special favors or privileges at the
hands of the General Government.
ResoEued. That the Secretary of this
Convention be directed to forwarda copy
of the above resolutions to each of the
Senators and Representatives from Ohio,
end to the Postmaster General.

The Helena Montana) Herald of June
l says: Our agent just returned from

| fight between the whites and Indians,
which terminated as fatally to the latter
as did the engagement of Colonel Baker
and troops with the Piegans three years
since. Some ten days ago a party of
wolfers. who had been out in the Whoop-
up country during the entire past win

Benton, expecting to reach that place
next day with their packs of pelts Dur
ing the night, however, some Indians
stole their horses and were far ont of

The men came to Benton, procured

would recover their property even if they.
had to go to Saskatchewan for it. Each
man was armed with Henry rifle and
two large revolvers, was we'll mounted,
and five good pack animals were taken
along with the party. The trail was
soon found, and the pursuers pushed for
ward night and day with but short rest,
until they arriyed at small trading post
at Cyprus Mountains, 200 miles within
the British borders. Here they found
encamped forty lodges Of North Assina-
BONES, who met the whites with bows
strung and guns cooked, saying that they
knew the whites were after a fight with
the Indians who had stolen their horses
that the Crees had stolen them and only
left their camp the day before but that
the Crees were the Assinaboin's friends,
and that the whites might have a fight
if they desired right there.
The whites took shelter within the
trading post, which contained haIta a dozen
white traders. By these they were also
told that the stolen horses had passed the
day previous, that ten Assina BONES were
aiding, the Crees. and had fred several

WHEN evils appear in our polit;cals the
cry is for constitutional convention to
mend the machinery. The prospect of
ame,ioration would be better if instead
of tinkering the government we set
about reforming public opinion, and
elevating the standards of official integ-
rity. This continual talk about merits
and defects in constitution, as if thence
and not from the heart of the people
where the issues of national life, is
positively harmful, for it diyerts attention
from the true remedy, which consists In
a simple, earnest effort to be better
people than before. Get the best ma
chienery by all means but remember that
r5 machienery of government can turn
out better work than is in the heart and
mind of the people themselves Spring

The wisconsin RaiIrotd Company.

The Ean Claire Free Press last week
announced In terms almost gushing en-
ough to ruin any young enterprise, the
formation Of a company of Wisconsin
capitalists under the name of Wisconsin
Railway Company, with an alleged cap
of $50, 900, 900, for the purpose of build
ing the sections froad prescribed in the
law of last winter and gobbling the much
talked of land grant. The iist of officers
and directors includes several very reput-
able citizers of Milwaukee and the Chip
pewa Valley. The company, applying
to Governor Washburn for information as
to the nature of the security that would
be required for the completion of the pro-
posed lines, met with as favorable a re-
sponse as that official under the law was
permitted to give-namely, individual
bonds of the corporators providing for
the forfeiture of SIS, 900 for every mile Of
the lines not built within the periods
specified in the law. He was certainly
lenient in not requiring deposit of mon
ey or marketable bonds as security.
The fact that the company demurs to
this condition indicates pretty clearly
its sense of its inability to comply. with
the terms of the grant and throws sus-
picion upon its motives. We should find
even more difficulty than we do find in
believing that the gentlemen composing
in somebody's plot to keep other cor
porations from building the road, could we
forget the experience of last year, when
many of these same gentlemen assumed
undertakings for the fulfflment of which
1t seems they were not responsible and
when even so astute a business man a.
Mr., Alexander Mitchell r.s betrayed
into telegraDhing from New York infor
NATION about the Lodi section which
had no basis in fact. If, which we believe
is the fact, it is physical impossibllity
for any company to build all the proposed
lines within the several stip u'ated periods
then the company that undertakes to d,
SO and a. the same time demurs TO an,
reasonable penalty for its failure, is so IA
forth fraud. The odor of DO matte
how many hornored names cannot dis
guise the flavor of the transaction.
Gov. Washburn viii of course COM
into an ample share of abuse from tn
Mll,cGukee Ne,cs and papers of the sam,
school for bis boldness in standing by th
law of the state and protecting the peopl
from any further shenanigau inconnectio
