CCincinnaIi Enquirer special --Vice-Pres,-

Of the Republican party, unless the ADMIN.
strasion programme he changed. he says
that in the last presidential election tue ne
publican party obtained hundreds OF Inou.
sands of votes upon sufferance merely, beng
the votes of those who were discontenteG:
but willing to give the party another Irial:
It became necessary to modify the polIcy OF
tbe Government. and to adopt poiicy
of retrenchment and reform in order
f. retain this element OF strength. ne
thought that all the great issues upon when
the Republican party had acquired strength
were in the past. These views. MIR. wilson
said. be had communion ed to the President
wears ago. He thought that the Republican
party could win victory in 1876, hut IL
must be by complete change OF its present
policy. The appointment OF number oil
ex.congressmen to prominent positions Mr.
Wilson regarded as deplorable spectacle.
He thought that these were the very iasI

Suppose they settle the purchase price in two
payments or even three payments? Can the
State, can the taxpayers afford 1t =?
The bill should be amended SO as to limit the
amount Of payments, say to $4,000 or $4,000 a
year. This is 'sa reform measure" and it ought
to accomplish reform, if it is worth any thing.
If the payments were limited as suggested, it
would effect a saving to the State-always pro-
viding that the United States Government con-
tinues to uphold and legalize the acts of this
usurping and unlawful government for the
building would then pay for itself in rent.
There should be an additional section, pro-
viding that the $4,000 notes due by the company
should be'taken up and the mortgages to secure
their payment Cancelled.
We are not inflallible at figures, bat it seems
to us the BULLETIN, in the event the present
scheme is contaminated, should be credited with
having saved to the State the difference between
$3.50, 900 and 900, or 100000.

THE PLOT FOOLED.

The intense disgust Of the Administration
press throughout the country at the failure
Of the compromise plot concocted by the
second Congressional Subcommittee, proves
pretty conclusively that it was confidently ex-
pected in Administration circles that the COM
mittee would, taking advantage of the i'm
poverished and almost helpless condition of
our people, succeed in fixing up compromise
that would exonerate the President and
white wash the Republican party.
The Inter- Ocean is furious, the Chicago
Tribune is angry and spiteful, the New York
the same stripe all bark in unison. The peo-
pie of Louisiana have, in the opinion of these
SUPERFICIAL journals, committed a deadly sin
they have refused to degrade themselves for a
promised benefit: they have preferred to suf-
fer yet little longer rather than accept relief
at the cost Of manhood and Of honor.
As an evidence Of the feeling We quote the
following malicious fabrication from one OF
the most able and decent of all the Radical
sheets, in order that our merchants and bust
ness men may see what is thought of them
by Chicago editor, who seems to have lost
his balance completely in this matter. In an
article referring to the failure of the compro-
mise, the Tribune thus refers to the gentle.
men who attended the mass meeting:
The crowds which met in public meetings to
protest against the compromise were the politi-
cal ritfraff and scum Of the city, whose interest
it is to keep alive the agitation and excitement
for partisan purposes.
There may have been some Of the "riff-
raft present at that meeting, and if there
were, the meanest and lowest of them were
the peers Of the editor OF the Chicago Tribune,
who lends himself and his powerful paper to
the dissemination OF such gross and palpable
falsahOOds

STILL ANOTHER BURGLARY.
They Go for the Spirits.
And Also Currency.

Some time during the night Of last Friday,
the 5th inst, bold attempt was made to
burglarize the Pelican saloon, at the corner
of Perdido and st. Charles streets, and owned
by Dan Owens. The thieves made their en-
trance by the back door on Perdido street, by
breaking or cutting out PANEL of the door.
The thieves were unknown, but must have
been some Of the boys, as they took several
bottles of whisky into the Darkroom, and
after having good time returned the empty
bottles to the counter, with the following
note
Dear Dan-We have made a clean sweep
we have SIS in currency, five bottles OF
whisky and a couple of revolvers. In the
drawer you will find one dollar, which we
leave to prevent you from being broken en-
tirely.
This is one of the coolest proceedings We
have ever heard Of.

TREADING ON THIN ICE.

To an Oriental, perhaps his dress would not
appear peculiarly loud, but to the ordinary I'M
educated American eye there was just shade of
fiashiness about it, which seemed to indicate
that he believed himself to be what, in the par
lance OF those who said to fracture the hearts
of fair ones, is called "killing." He took off a
canary kid, toyed gracefully with it and asked
for the fighting editor. We noticed he was cool,
Fl gid-zonicslly cool, and we became cool too;
one of those coolnesses that sometimes is attend
ed by ague, but there was no flinching.
We couldn't if we tried. His beautiful eye, (he
had only one,) and his manly form held us spell
bound; not exactly an ordinary SPELL but one of
those peculiar kind of spells experienced on GER
tain occasions when one wishes he wasn't lust
where he is. Modestyis strong card with us, so we
modestly asked him if he would call again-when
we were out!
No! he wouldn't. He had called to apologize
for not paying little advertising bill, and
wanted to settle it then and there.
We are not ordinarily savage, but if that
venturesome young man could have seen the
CLEAN of our eagle eye, the firm compression O!
the lip, he would never again dare to enter news
paper Office. As a father We advised him Of the
yawning precipice upon which he had been stand
ing and the narrow escape he had had from
certain humiliation should journalistic cool
ness not have saved him. We read him lecture
which We hope will be of advantage in future
years. and he left a sadder man. 1t is remarka BILE
how daring some people will be.

WASHINGTON.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 13.-Ths Republican joint
caucus adjourned after midnight. Only thirty
eight voted upon the final question. The bill
which the caucus will report is the same as tele-
