II tho 6enntoriai opposition to Ca1eb Cushing
beeomes strong enough to cause his rejection or
withdrawal President Graut will be apt to think
that he is not oqunl to tho tnat of appointing d
ca,ef-Juatica Of the Supreme Court-as very
likely hn il not. He first nominated a man who
was qualified in au respects except in his knowl-
edge of law. Ho next nominated ono who was
disqualified IN al1 respecta except in Ills knowl-
edge Of Inv. His third nomination, II he should
DO required to mako third, can only bo antici-
patod with Hhuador.
Tho objection urged against Gushing is, tlat
he is not Il Republcau,-At all events not good
one. This ig q most strange obtoctioua Can
not the popo bo trusted to select good Catholios
for Cardinals? The fact that tho President
choao Gushing Tor Chief-3ustice Ia tho highest
form Of credentials known to party usage and
discipline. Can q deeper insult be offered to
the Chlef~Magistrato OF tho American people
than to say ho don't know what his own party
consists or II Cushing, in fact, is not D Re-
publican, the regular and right thing for loyal
Senators to do ia to swear that ho ia. They de-
he was. What should hinder thom from deciding
that cnRhiug is Republican, whether he is or
not? 1t is only question Of uames after slJ
aud il anybody is captious Cushing can probably
prove that he voted for Grant. He can prove
also that he stood shoulder to shoulder with
Ben Butler in the Cnarlestou Convention, and
cast AZ many votes for Jof Davis as any A1assa-
chtaotss doughface il the lot. by bursting up
the Democratic party i'll 1860, ho contributed
powerfully to the election Of Lincoln, What
Republican in the Senate eau put his hand o.
tho Bible and Say he did mora? Gen. Grant
vas not Republican when ho was first elected
President. Why impose conditions upon Cush-
Ing which were NOT imposed upon the head of
tho party?
Mr. Gushing ia too old for valuable or useful
service on tho Bench. lie is entitled, under tho
law, to retire On O pension Of $4,000 per year
the day after lis confirmation. Tint Is 4 valid
objection to his appointment. Tho law for TO-
firing superannuntcd Judges was framed in
order to soeuro Sigozouaand unimpairea strength
on tho Supreme Donch--not to provide pousiouH
for agad lawyers. II the Sonato intonds to TO-
1ect Gushing. let the rejection DO basod upon
his II years, md not upon his want of Re-
public aniam-a want which uo two Reuators
can define allie, in whole day'a discussion.
The prevailing definition Of Repubcanism ia
Presidential favor and consideration, and Cush.
lug certainly haH enough Of that 10 satisfy oil

THE MEx1OAN-BoNDEn CLAIMS,

Two yoars ago, Congress appropriated $4,000
to pny the oxponsos OF throo Commissioners to
visit tho Rio Grando and report on tho casos OF
alleged dcpredations by hloxicans upon the
property Of American sotslors on Tho border.
Tho Commissioners Ind vory gdod time Of 1t.
1hoir fatnc lad preceded thom, aud al along
tho frontier thoro WAS an unusual demand for
lcgal~cap papor, and TOR Justices Of tho peaco
WHO could administor oaths and at tho samo ttme
write. Tho Commissioners, 1t was undorstood
wcro tl,cro to adiust any claim which an AnerT-
can cffizon might establish OF losB resulting
from robberies by tho Moxicans On tho other
side Of tho river. Old mon and young mon,
widows sud orphans. grcotcd tho Commissioners
with enthusiasm. Tho libora1ity Of the Goyorn-
mont in sonding tlireo such omiuont citizens

tho hardy frontiessmen was something 30 grand

iu, md though tue claimants woro little put
back when they found that tho Commissioners
did not propose to pay tho bills, but intended
takfng them to Washington to bo paid from thore.
thoy kept up during tho summer md fall
pretty vigorous awearing as to losses. The
Commissioners. however, got tired, aud, when
tho $50, 900 left to take them homo, they loft
tho Rio Grande and returned to Washington,
Thoy reported an aggregate Of losses sustained
by our fellow-citizens amounting, II VIC semen-
bor rightly. to betweon twenty-five mud thirty
millions Of dollars. Thoy reported, however,
that thoy had not boon ab1o. for want Of timo,
to collect all tho casos, and therefore asked Of
Congress another appropriation to continue tho
Commission. So Congress mado tho appropria-
tion. aud in duo timo got auothor report carrying
the claims up several millions higher. In the
meantime. Mexico had heard Of tho wonderful
Commission on tho American side Of the rio
drando, and forthwith tint Goyornmont nr-
pointed q Commission to take evidence as to
doprodations Oh the property Of Moxioana by tho
people OF Toxaa, and now wa have tue first bul-
etin from this Commission. Up to dnte the
claims proven by Moxicaus exceed 5100. 0.ooo, ,o0ol

We do not know by wl1nt process Of calculation
the Mexican Commission has reached this esti-

American Commission was both original and
conclusiye It was something after this fashion:
John Smith haa 500 hoad Of cattle; cattle in
herda increase at the rato Of 33 per cont per an-
mum. In 1869, John Smith could find but 40O Of
his cattlo, ergo tho Msrioans had stolen 400 of
them. Now Johu's bill for Indemnity was naado
