The Northern Commune.

The Spanish question and its excltements
have SO much occupied the public mind, cat
a domestic movement of considerable interest
has comparatively escaped attention. We
refer to the International mass meeting held
in New York ON the lth ult., from which, all
things being favorable. there promises to pro-
ceed an agitation calculated to produce serious
results. Ostensibly, the meeting was held in
the cause OF reform but really, judging from
the subioined description, it was the initiation
of a workmens revolution. We quote tel
egraphc report:
Around the platform were numerous
notices such as ave demand suspen-
sion OF rent for three MONTHS "Th9
general that commands this army is gem
eral distress:" "When workingmen begin
to think. monopoly begins to tremble," and
others of equally significant character. A
hand-bill was circulated enumerating the high
salaries paid officials, and demanding 10 sala
ries over five thousand dollars. The number
of homeless men and women in the city is given
at 10000. those in station-houses 1900 per week,
and out of eleven trades unions, 20, 240 men are
idle, and only $3.50 employed 1t is also stated
that there are IS0, 900 skilled workmen idle in
this State and 10000 of all classes in the city
and 3s, 900 women earning only an average OF
50 IA cents per week. An address was read
on the duty of Government to protect the i'll
dustrial classes. When the Government fails
in that duty it should be set aside or over
/ thrown,

= New Complication I'm Pinch
backs Case.

Washington, Dee. 20.-There is a new scan
dat af1oat, which is to the effect that Pinchback
not only brihed Blanchard to make affidavit to
his own crlmlnaity, but that he bought the
votes III the Kellogg Legislature which elected
him, and to cap the climax, That he obtained
the money wherewith to buy them by fraud
uient devices and under false pretenses. 1t is
charged by Pinchback's opponents that among
the candidates for Senator before the Kellogg
Legislature was one Norton. a carpet bagger,
VINO WAS man of wealth; that Norton, finding
1t necessary to buy votes, but lisliking to 90
into the market himself intrusted u sum of
money to Pinchback to be used in buying up
the negro Legislators to vote for him. Norton.
Plnchback. 1t Is alleged, took the money and
bought the niggers according to contract, ex-
cept in that he being ambitious, and a sharp
fellow withal, bought them for himself instead
OF tor Norton. When the Legislature came to
ballot Norton was Mortified to tind Pinchback
elected and himself left out in the cold, and
1t is said, when he applied for the restitution
OF his money he was politely invited TO go to
warmer climate than even New Orleans.
These a few trifes which threaten to
embarrass Pinchback in the attainment of his
Senatorial ambition. Added to these is also
the presence i'll this city of Judge Bell OF New
Orleans, who is expected to testify that
former occasion he was called upon to perform
the melancholy duty of sentencing Pnchba
to the penltentiary for two years. And yet
Senator Morton insists that he has d primo
TGcte case.
Morton's point in sustaining Pinchback. how
ever, is not that he wants to get the latter into
the Senate particularly, but that he desires to
make his admission a test of the legality of the
Kellogg Government. Morton holds that un-
til after Pinchback has become a member
thereof the Senate cannot take ahy cognizanee
of the charge that may stand against him, but
as soon AS he is admitted on his credentials
which will settle the status of the Kellogg
Government. from which he is accredited
then Morton thinks he can be investigated on
the charges which affect his fitness for seat
in the Senate

STARTLING REPORT FROM TEXAS. - Under
date of the 22l. the Washington correspon-
dent of the Louisville Courier-Journal tele-
graphs as follows: An extraordinary report
has reached here from Texas to the effect that
Gov. Davis, who was beaten by about forty
thousand majority in the last election held
under law approved by himself, has now dis
covered that this law was invalid, and pro-
poses to treat the election as if it had not
occurred. Some think that he is prompted to
this course by the President, who is encourag-
ed thereto by the acquiesence of the public in
his Louisiana policy.

If we shculG get into war with the Cubans
land here's hoping we shall mott, Forrest is the
boy we want to set after Burriel. 1t may be
true, as Gen. Sherman says, the fighting will
quire at least one cavalry expedition. For
rests theory of war is that it means fighting,
and his theory of fighting is that it means kill
ing. We wish no other harm to Burriel than
that he may fall in FORESTS way. Forrest
