which this slave traffic is conducted. These
affidavits were forwarded by Mr.. Estes, late
Speaker of the California Assembly, to be
brought to the attention of Congress BY Page,
with view to securing federal legislation TO
prevent further importations of the kind, it
having been held by the United States courts
in California that the state laws enacted for
the purpose are unconstitutional
President Grant, in recent conversation on
this subject, expressed the opinion that such
importations are in violation of the spirit of the
treaty with China, but he did not say he be-
Ileved the treaty was directly violated thereby,
nor did he give any assurance, as has been in
correctly stated, that he would call attention
to the subject in his forthcoming message.

THE Boston Globe is informed that the
who recently voted with the Democratic
party are talking of forming third party to
be called "The Peoples Reform Party"
These men, the Globe adds as if it had con-
suited the mass of them, have concluded thai
the existing parties have fought all the bat
ties they can and are so nearly together that
the speech which Gen. Buffers successor de-
livers to the Gloucester fishermen could with
safety be delivered by Congressman Hoar in
Worcester They hope to secure the best
elements of both parties and are very certain
that, with a platform something like the fol-
lowing they can sweep the country:
1. Hard money and an early.resumption of specie
payments
g. A civil service reform which shall in the fullest
sense. be an application of all the rules of business
in all the offices OF the government.
g. An economical administration of public affairs
which will bring the rate of taxation to the lowest
point.
A. Short legislative sessions and the abolition of
special legislation, except in extreme cases.
Cheap transportation and some other
matters will be "chipped" in with the above
to make the proclamation a little more inn
posing. So far this is all very well. We had
already begun ''to take stock in it until the
Globe came to mention Presidential candi-
dates for this reform organization. Sherman
and Sheridan might do but were military
men. Charles Sumner was the pattern but
he is dead. Who next? Banks! 1t was
uttered with faltering voice for the speaker
or writer must have remembered that the
Generals record on the salary bill of the last
Congress and plank numbered three in the
above platform couldn't we'll be sung in the
same meter.
