The question demlnds some sober

ZAcu CHANDLERs problem in political
science: Which is the safest foundation

EFfhe following paragraph from the
report of the majority of the Louisiana
Investigating Committee gives substan-
TALLY the result of their labor5.
II anything ever can be conclusively
proved in regard to the troubles in Loui.
siana, it is certainly now forever settled
that GRANT and SHERIDAN violated the
Constitution and outraged the fundamen
tai principles of free government to aid
and support an atrocious fraud. The
Republicans and Republican papers
which refused to endorse their hi gh ham
ded usurpations, are to be congratulated
The Committee say:
"Fifth-The entire want of any direct
evidence to show any general intilnida.
ton of color, d voters. OF course in SO
large State it would be impossible there
should be no instance of refusal to en-
ploy or intimidation, as such occur in
every State. But the evidence certainly
indicates no general intimidation of the
rolored voters, and that such intimidation
as did exist in the State, was rather in the
interest of the Republicans than of the
Conservatives. The y. !. Marshals,
whose chief was Chairman of the Repub-
lican State Cot;imittee. and in some cases
with blank warrants Of arrest, and aided
by the federal troops, made constant ar
rests before the election but not after
wards. The oversight of the election
and the returns were in the hands of Gov
Kellogg's officials. Their account and
returns did show 90 majority of mem
bers of the Lower House elected by the
Conservatives without any protest what
ever, except in three parishes, although
it was their province and duty to protest
in any case where violence and intimida-
ton or fraud existed. To the resolution
reported to the House from the commit
tee az to the action of the Returning
Board, We are agreed. We understand
the committee to be unanimous in finding
the fact that the returning Board has de
feated the will of the people as expressed
by them at the polls onthe Sd day Of No
vember, 1874. The people then elected
to the Lower House Of the Legislature a
majority of Conservative members. A
portion Of the Conservative members
thus elected were refused their certif-
Gates. This is an act Of great injustice to
the individuals and Of gravest danger to
the Stale and free government and ought
to be Immediately corrected by any pow
er competent to correct"

mile $500, which added to grading
and superstrucsure, give total estimated

You of course understand that the
above estimates being made without
any knowledge OF the country through
which the road is to be built or of the
traffic and merchandise to be transpor-
ted will OF necessity be faulty, hut per-

perhaps too high for the present low

Origin of the Omnibus.

The lorg coach called an omnibus, with the
entrance behind, and the seats along the side
facing each other, originated in Paris in 1927,
and in 1881 it began to come into use in Lon
den. In large cities it is found the most
economical form of carriage, except those
runni; G on rails, for conveying the largest
number OF passengers through the streets In
Paris tie public omnibuses are numerous
and commo dious though their progress is
slow as compared with those of London.
Oae company has municipal monopoly, and
owns all the lines
The DmniLuses on the several lines are of
diff rent coiors and the lines are lettered from
A to z, and from A B to A Z. In 1872 there
were In London about 1900 omnibuses, en-
ploying nearly 1000 persons The number
was formerly much larger ID proportion, for
in 1874 one company employed 400 omni-
buses; but large part of tae city and sub
urban travel is now carried on tramways and
underground railways. Ia New York city one
was made in 1880, and run upon Broadway,
In 1853 the number of the 9 coaches mployed
upon various lines was 1919. This Was q con-
siderable reduction from the number of flr-
mer years, owing 10 the construction Of horse
railroads, and by 1873 the number Was reduced
to about 300

friends, there are three things / very much
wonder at. The first is, that children should
be so foolish as to throw stones. clubs. and
biickbats up into fruit trees to knock down
fruit; if they would let it alone it would fall
itself The second is, that men should be so
foolish and even so wicked as to go to war and
kill each other; if let alone, they would die
themselves. And the third and last thing that
l wonder at is that young men should be so
unwise as to go after the young women; if
they would stay at home, the young women
would come after them"

The plan of letting in the waters of the
Atlantic and making a navigable sea of the
desert of Sahara in Africa, seeming imprac-
ticable, a Scotchman proposes to make road,
perhaps eventually railway, along the de-
preston of that ancient sea bottom which ex-
tends from Cape JUDY to the mysterious negro
metropolis. The promontory named faces the
Cansries, and is consequently close to the
southern provinces Of ,rbary, said to be ex-
traordinarily rich, healthy and fertile. A
diagonal line drawn thence to TImbuctoo, 900
miles distant. crosses the western portion of
the Sahara, but the route leads
through comparatively low country, with
convenient resting stations and watering
places. From Timbuctoo the Niger is navig-
able for over 1000 miles. At present there is
q caravan trade between the North Central
African emporium and Morocco and the other
Barbsry ates of about SIS 000,0 year.
The rosie now traversed by the Barbary mer-
chants, however, is about 1000 miles in length,
and is carried through sterile and mountain
GUS country infested by Tuaricks and other
predatory tribes, the difficulties and dangers
of which greatly increase the cost of the goods
on delivery at Timbuctoo.

Jewels White Head in Danger.

Senator Morton has been at Washington
hobnobbing with the President in regard to
the political situation, and exchanging views
as to points OF the forthcoming message.
They are now on excellent terms and quite
happy since Ohio suspended the death war;
rant OF Gran,ism. 1t is curious that each is
confident of the support of the other in pro-
noting his personal ambition. Morton is
fully persuaded he has Grants reversion ry
interest for the nomination next year; while
Grant feels confident that Morton will be
found at the proper time among his ardent
champions.
With this mutual delusion, everything is
lovely between them, and even JEALOUSY seems
to be exiled from their public md private in
tercourse. As our Washington correspond
ents have alrea " reported, Morton would
like to transfer Treasurer New to the head OF
the Post Office Department, and has siguifed
as much in a suggestive way. The seed did
not fall on barren ground, for Grant is not
pleased with some Of the performances OF
Jewell, who is personally odsous to the init
mates of the White House.-Ne,o York Sun.

No Autumn frost hath sharpened the soft cir,
No storm hath bent and torn TINS woodland iairi
But vet The sumac red, the naples gold,
PAINT the sad picture full of mystery,
Which the wear touches as its heart grows cold"
"Methought tine keen sharp breath
of Autumn needed ere this change should come.
Not uuder Joyous skies whose mellow
Seems full of ripeness peace and sweet content,
Did expect to meet this brig ht-robed death,
Graded midst warmth and glow the Summer lent.
Nay DEAR law of Life
Gives the fresh sap, which rises in the leaf
Bursts into bud and bloom and fills the sheaf.

Though to October came the breath of May.
For conquered by q Law
The hard inevitable law Of Death
Life buds and blooms, gives fruit and ields its

So full of beauty yesterday, to-day
Withered and dim, and marred by saddest flaw,
Which hastes it on TO sure and swift decay.
But love, not always so?
Whence comes that law which blights the bud in
Spring,
Which stills the Aedgling ere it triss its wing,
Which checks the pulse before it's count is made,
Whose brief to-day toward no tomorrow flows,
And Life il .ilenced ere its notes are played ;!
Beyond the solemn stars
Glimmers the glorious gardens of the BEST,
Where all buds tn bighted raise their crest
Unfold and blossom in the light of Truth.
The Law of Love which watched them from afar
Stronger than Life or Death and full of ruth,
Had seen hidden blight

1t knew the tender Pulse had sharpest stngs
To count it's throbs Of Time by agony,
And 10 DER Life and Death it raised it's might,
This Law Of Love, Gods blessed mystery.
All Dear is it not sweet!
To know that Love is ST. onger than our life.
Aye stronger than its woes and endless strife
Stronger than Death for eyes whose last dim sight
Have closed in tears its blessed touch shall meet
And straitway open to Eternal Light
And yet men blindly rave,
Beneath the two stern laws of Life and Death,
Know naught care naught, beyond their leeting
breath
And cry "'Tis over" when that breath is sped
Dear God DER such Love weeps, yet may not save
As prayerless hopeless, blind they seek the d ad
