DEKELOPMENT OF ERAUD.

1t is now evident that. the treaty entered
into between the Kellogg government, as
represented by the Republican State Cen
tral Committee and the revolutionists, which
resulted in aprotocol promising fair registra
ton, and an election free from intimidation
and fraud, is as hollow, hypocritical and
fraudulent in its intent, so far as the Demo
Gratis are concerned, as it can well be. The
Republicans seem to have forgotten that
it is not possible to league with the devil
without getting the worst of the compact.
They must have known, unless they were
under the excitement created by the at
tempted revolution, bereft Of their senses,
that the proposed conference was only a
snare laid to entrap the Kellogg govern
ment and party into recognition of the
McEnery dynasty. In view of the recent
events the Republicans were, by far, TOO
credulOus and are now paying the penalty
OF hasty and inconsiderate entertainment
OF plan concocted by their enemies to de-
lude and betray them and their State into
fresh difficulties,
When the President of the United States
profered the strong arm of the Constitu-
ton to crush out the McEnery rebellion,
he did SO with the admOnition to Governor
Kellogg that noreeognition should be given
to the government attempted to be set up
by the revolutionists. This decided indi-
cation Of incorporating hostility to the
movement of the McEneryites had the de-

is determined to live up to the traditions and
policy of his father. He says: coffee to jour
nalist is suicide. Bryant saw this and declined
first-class mission. The founder of the Herald
saw it and rejected the French mission when it
came from Abraham Lincoln. Neither Greeley
nor Raymond would see it, and to them the
end was very sad. For ourselves we cherish
the tradition of the HerGld-' We shall support
no party, be the organ of no faction or coterie,
and care nothing for any election or any can
didate, from President down to constable ~
At the head Of the Herald Mr.. Bennett has a
greater and more important position than any
office could give him, and on this point he
need not and does not care whether school
keeps or not.

THE New YORK Graphic thinks the
salaries of our representatives abroad are
entirely too low and ought TO be taken into
consideration by convention of the rich
men ofthe country, who should see that they
are properly paid. 1t adds: eff the press
" of the country was really Independent,
" instead of bowling about salary grabs
" and increase of pay, it would persistently
" rebuke the average voter, who looks
" with jealousy upon anybody who re-
" ceivcs more than three dollars day, and
yet permits himself to be swindled by all
" manner of indirect means. Parsimouv
" in the payment of good public officers is
% wastcfulness in disguise"

POLITICAL NOTES.


The Democrats of the Second New York Con
gressional have nominated Chas. B. Walker.
John Means, Republican, was nominated for
Congress at MaysvilIe, on Thursday, for the
Tenth district of Kentucky.
RUFUS S. Frost has been nominated for Congress
by the Republicans or the Fourth Massachusetts
district now represented by Mr.. Hooper.
Hon. ]. G. whitehouse, who was renominated
for Congress at Poughkeepsie, N Y. by the
Democrats and Liberals, has concluded to accept
the nomination. 49,
So far as heard from only three counties in
GeorRia-Liberty, Newton and Glynn-have
gone Republican. The indications are that the
entire delegation from Georgia in the next Con-
gress will be Democratic.
Senators Clayton and Dorsey, Judge Mcclure
and large number of other leading Republicans
Of Arkansas, will leave Little Rock to-day to
attend the Chattanooga convention. They will
be joined by the delegation from Texas.
The Albany Evening Journal says: "There is
arslight difference between the two candidates
for Governor in this State. The friends Of Gen.
Dix point trlumphantly to what he has done;
while the friends Of Tilden point timidly to what
he may do.
The New York State Executive Committee Of
the Independent Temperance party have with
drawn the nominations Of Judge GrOO and DIR.
and decided to accept the regular State prohibit
tion ticket, headed by Myron H. CLARK.
On the 18th instant, as per call, the Republicans
of the reconstructed States meet in convention at
Chattanooga, Tennessee. The call OF this con-
ventiOn has been widely circulated through the
South and favorable response has been received.
Much good can be done the whole country by q
judicious course the part of the delegates sent
there. 1t is expected that Virginia and Maryland
will be represented. Arrangements have been
made for round-trip tickets from Washington to
the convention for $3.50, to be obtained at 6O3
Pennsylvania avenue.
Elections will be held next Tuesday in Ohio,
Indiana, Iowa, Nebraska, West Virginia, Arkan-
sas, and in the Territory Of Dakota. Ohio does
not elect Governor, but the choice of other State
officers and members of Congress make it an im-
pOrtant election. Indiana and Iowa elect State
officers below Governor and members of Congress.
Nebraska elects q full State ticket; while the
Legislature to be chosen will have the naming of
a United States Senator. West Virginia elects
Congressman and Legislature that will choose
the successor of Senator Boreman. The contest
over the new constitution will be the chief in.
terest in Arkansas. Dakota chooses q Delegate
to Congress.

ALL accounts from the State of New
York indicate that Gov. Dix will be re-
elected by an overwhelming majority. His
popularity is universal among the masses,
who believe implicitly in his patriotism
and integrity. His trip through the west
ern portion of the State has been one con-
tinued ovation. The only danger now ap-
pretended as possible by leading Republi
cans is that the assurance of success may
lead TO carclessness and relaxation of eff
forts on the day of election. But this must
be guarded against. Every true Republi-
can will continue TO do his whole duty I'M
til the votes arc counted and the returns
are announced. This course will insure
to the Republican ticket majority equal if
not superior TO that of 1872.

KHERE DO THEY STAND NORp

WHERE DO THEY STAND NOWp
In 1872 the Democratic party in ma
tiOnal convention in Baltimore, accepted
Horace Greeley as their standard bearer
for the Presidency, and in their platform
placed the following plank: 1--WE recognize
"thc equality of all men before the law,
and hold that it is the duty of the Gov
eminent in its dealings with the people,
"to mete out equal and exact justice to all,
Of whatever nativity, race, color or per-
" suasiOn, religious or political" While
the campaign was in progress, Mr. Gree
ley, who was then the chief and accepted
leader of the party, said: Il hope the time
"wilI come when our educational institu-
'tions and seminaries will be open to men
of all races, with a freedom, with hos
"pitality which las never yet been en-
"jOyed. trust the time will come when
mo mans color will exclude him from any
religious Organization whatever" Where
does this same Democratic party stand to-
day! The massacres in Grant parish;
the assassinations in Coushatta, New Or
leans and Trenton are the answer.

WASHINGTON, October Z, IS74.

General Order.
Commodore Melancton B. woolsey, Of the Uni
ted states navy, died Of yellow fever while in
mand Of the navy yard at Pensacola, on the I'd in
slant.
In announcing to the naval service the loss OF
this ofncer, the Department feels called upon TO
express It's appreciation Of the high character
which Commodore WOolsey gained during the war
OF the reoelnon, and or the selEsacriheing spirit
he evinced during the deadly pestiience which
has lately desolated the Pensacola navy yard.
Under orders to proceed to the North upon i'm
pOrtant service, after the fever had broken out in
the town Of Pensacola, but not within the ward
he suggested to the Department that he had BET
ter remain within his command. He was informed
that even under such circumstances he might prom
erly comply with his orders, but he replied that
he preferred TO remain at his post. Remaining
there he died, a martyr TO his Eense Of duty
He has thus bequeathed TO the navy an example
Of heroism, such as may occur in peaceful DAYS
and Of devotion TO his duty that cannot be ex-
eelled in time of war.

Acting Secretary Of the Navy.

SOME of our indiscreet Democratic ex-
changes in remote sections of the country
are abusing the Hon. John Morrissey. This
is wrong. MIR. Morrissey is the leader of
the Democratic party in New York city,
and if we should have a Democratic Ad-
ministration in 1877 it is just as likely as
not that he may be made Secretary of the
Treasury,

In THE OPINION of the sage of the
Courier Journal, things are in bad way,
and something must be done soon. Either
the North should give the South military
protectorate right away, or do something
else. The COurier-JournGL has the sa-
gacity to see exactly what is needed.

THE HARMONY which prevailed in the
Massachusetts, State convention is matter
of profound disappointment to the opposi-
ton press. For weeks it was denouncing
Gen. Butler, because, according to it, he
intended to make row, and now it is de-
nouncing him that he did not. B. F. B.
must he abused for something.
