FERDINAND l., ex-Emperor of Austria,

A CHICAGO paper says the prevailing

THE nuisance of tramps in the country
is growing to formidable proportions,
and something ought to be done speedi-
ly to put a stop to it. It is really I'M
safe to leave women and children alone
in the house in many sections, since they
are exposed at any hour to the impu-
dence and occasional brutality of able
bodied Migrants. Touching this matter,
the New York Graphic hits the nail
squarely on the head, when it says !:
When we get rid of our popular can't
concerning the rights of man, and adopt
the wholesome theory that man who
will not work has no right to live, we
shall have proper vagrant law, under
which tramps and bummers will be
seized and made to work for the benefit
of the public.
On the LIST inst, the new postal treaty
between the United States and nearly all
the countries of Europe went into opera
ton. Hereafter letter weighing one
half ounce or less may be sent for five
cents from any part of the United States
to Great Britain, Germany, Austria, Bel
gium, Russia, Norway, Sweden, Den
mark, Switzerland, Spain, Portugal,
Turkey and Egypt, or to any colony of
any of these countries. After january
/, 1876, France will come into this postal
union. Postal cards can be sent for two
cents, and newspapers, weighing not
more than four ounces, for two cents.
These low rates will prove of very great
advantage in many ways They viii be
great convenience to many persons in
this country as well as in those named,
the same rate carrying letters from those
countries to this.

TIE new law regarding the fees on
money orders went into effect on the LIST
inst. Heretofore the fees on small or
ders have been but five cents, and as the
great majority of orders are for small
sums, it is said that the business has ac-
tually been done at loss to the depart
ment. Under the new law the rates are
ten cents for any sum up to fifteen dol
lars over fifteen dollars and not ex-
ceeding thirty dollars, fifteen cents over
thirty dollars and not exceeding forty
dollars, twenty cents over forty dollars
and not exceeding fifty dollars, twenty
five cents. This increase of rates, it is
estimated, will increase the revenue to
about the same ratio as it has heretofore
decreased
A LONDON telegram announces that
the Court of Inquiry appointed to inyes-

There is one circumstance in the Louisiana
case that is too significant to be overlooked.
Tho State Senate has large Republican
minority from hold.overs; but Oh the first tlny
of meeting and at no time since las my
Democratic member mnilo his appearance in
TINT body. 1t was the purpose Of the White
Leaguers, in case their revolution in the
House was successful, to have a new Senate
to be composed Of those elected IN 1871, and
Of those Democrats who claimed TO have been
elected in 1877 but who never took their
scnts, Thu IIouse intended to recognize this
new Senate, to tile exclusion Of the Republic
MI majority aud Of the Republican Licuten~
mt Governor. With the Senate and House
both in their control, they proposed to de-
clare that KELLOGG had never been elected,
and that N1cESEnY was Governor, and TINS
again renew the civil war. The failure Of tho
W11Tz revolution has spoiled the whole busi-
ness. Nevertheless, tho Democratic Senators

When TuE TRIBUNE began to discuss the
doctrine Of State Sovereignty, many of tho
Democratic press interposcd objections Oh tho
ground that this WINS " dead ISSUE" Soon,
however, they began to reply in language
TINT showed that the issue lived in THAR
hearts and their hopes. Prominent Demo-
crats have since openly inserted that this was
the real question in dispute between tho two
parties. Now that this is acknowledged the
Republican votes which gave the Democracy
their tlceting triumph in 1871 can 10 longer
bo relied upon i'll mid Of disloyai designs
Meanwhile, how 10 tho Independents at
Springfield like this outbrrst of Bourbon

gin to realize tint politics llas given them

their Democratic friends not to insist upon

Tho disclosures nude to Congress by alr.

agents, leads us to hope that We may finally
hnyo complete list Of tho corruptionists in
this subsidy. We have now got at distribu-
lion OF s5loc, 600 Of the money, leaving about
$70o.O00 yet to be accounted for. If AIr.
IRWIN, A1r. ScuuMAKEn, and a1r. KING would
follow Mr. AnERT's laudabla example, We
might, In the end, ascertain definitely who
were the actual beni1ciaries OF tile corruption
fund. All the members or officers Of Con-
gress who shared it could then be
promptly expelled, and Congress could
thereby justify itself from tho taint
this business Inns put upon 1t. We
can pledge tho faith OF tho press
that no newspaper correspondent who has
soilcd his hants with tho money shall ever
find employment on reputable newspaper.
For the others, tho ox-Congrcssmcn aud pro-
fessional lobbyists, their occupation is gone.
No Congressman will henoeforth dare to hold
converse with any Of them, and they may as

taken by Mr. porrEn (Den.), Of the Con-
gressionh Investigating Committee. It d
taken by all the Bourbon organs, which are
now bowling against the President and the
Republican party. In other words, they
would secure peace In Louisiana by with.
drawing tho conseryers Of tho peace. They
would secure equal rights by removing th'
troops and turning over ths State to tha
White League, to carry out its bloody pre-
gramn1a Of violence, terrorism, murder, aul

drive out the white ones, that ia tie pre-
