give up Ellen, but Mrs. OLeary clung
to Patrick with a pertinacity, which
caused O'Leary 10 have Ellen arrested
for biganiy. As Mrs. OLeary could
not obtain bail, she was sent to prison,
her case brought to Immediate trial by
hsbeas and the woman was acquitted
of the charge of bigany without the
Jury leaving their seats.
Now Mrs. O'Leary sues Prtrick for
support of herself and young O'Leary,
and the court is puzzled to know what
to do about it. A jury has determined
that Ellen has title clean to two hus-
bands, and as her No. has alieneated
her emotions by imprisoning her, Ellen
may at any time return to McEnery,
which with weekly support of $40
from O'Leary would be somewhat gall
ing to the feelings Of No. 2.
POLITICAL.
In my last letter stated that politics
in this city were decidedly mixed, and
gave an illustration of how each party
regarded their nominations. We are
called upon to elect "a Judicial Magis-
trates for the entire city, to take the
place of the Aldermen now in Office /;
each citizens can vote for 16, the "a high
est on the ticket to be elected; of course
each party nominated 16 men, and now
comes the Union League and rejects
three of the Republican candidates; and
the Central Democratic association Of
Penna., rejects 6 of the 16 nominated
by the Democratic Convention; and to
crown all, the municipal reform club,
confirms but eight Democrats of the
16, and an equal number of Repubi-
cans, placing eight new men upon each
ticket. To tell well meaning citizen
just how to vote, would puzzle the most
astute of Philadelphia lawyers. 1t is
consoling to know that we have just
16 good men in this city; and as a much
less number would have averted the
fate of Sodom, possible we may be saved
similar fate until after the Oenten-
NAL. j. w. f.

good case for the people; and as ell
Just governments derive their powers
from the consent Of the governed" we
think it would be iudicious to let well
enough alone. Taking the Graphics
statement as covering the case, the
government did a wrong in recognizing
Baxter, and the legal principle presents
itself as to whether the government can
so take advantage of its own wrong as
to deprive the present officers of their
positions, and overthrow the consitu-
ton under which they we're elected.
A strict adherence to red tape and legal
requirements, would, of course, vitiate
the constitution and all proceedings un-
der it, But, as the government itself
must now admit a wrong done to the
people, and to Brooks, in itsrecognition
of Baxter, it had better overlook the
informality attending the adoption of
the constitution and the election under
it, and allow Brooks his remedy at law
for damages. Let us have peace.

B6y~ Hartford, Conn, was the scene
of a destructive FIRE on Friday Of last
week, which destroyed quarter million
dollars worth of property. The fire
department was promptly on hand, but
so intense had been the cold that every
fre-plug was found frozen up, and so
long a time elapsed before water could
be obtained that the fire could not be
controlled. 1t was severe lesson to
Hartford, but may prove an instructive
one to other cities.

The Facts About Arkansas.

The New York Graphic, a wholly in
dependent paper, free from bias toward
or against the administration, boils the
whole case down to its briefest possible
compass as follows:
1. "Joseph Brooks, Democrat was
elected TO the Governorship of the State,
his term of Office to end january, 1877.
About this fact there is no dispute. 1t
is admitted on all hands and by all par
ties"
2. "Brooks was deliberately counted
out, and Baxter, who had not received
a legal majority in the State, was
counted in. No party now pretends
that Baxter was ever faily elected.
3. Baxter quarreled with his own
friends after his fraudulent election.
Brooks attempted to exert his legitimate
authority, and for time there was dan
ger of a civil war in Arkansas. "
4. subsequently an irregular con.
vention was called to amend the State
Constitution. But as it was not held
under any legal or constitutional provis-
ion the courts of the State decided that
its proceedings were clearly defective
and unconstitutional. After being rati
fed in an iIregil@' manner an election
was held, under which the present State
officers hold their places.
I "The facts in the case are: Thaf
Brooks was certainly elected; that he ii
the de jure Governor of the State; tina
his legal right to the office has beer
affirmed by the highest courts OF th'
State; and that the Constitution whiel
it IS claimed is in force, and which pre-
tended to deprive him of his rights
is fatally defective and void in law.
"ihe President, recognizing this stat
of affairs, has sent O message to Con
grese, notifying that body of the fac

The Conservative Compromise,

On Friday night the 9th inst, the
Conservatives of the Louisiana Legisla
ture held a caucus, and by a vote of 3S
to 27 decided to accept the plan of com
promise or adjustment drawn up by Mr.
Wheeler, of the investigating commit
tee. One of the provisions of the plan
was that the Conservative members tax
ing their seats in the Legislature, should
refrain from disturbing the Kellogg
Administration, or impeaching the Gov
ernor for his past official acts, although
not asked to approve his administration
As stated above, 3S out of the 65 Sen,
ators and Representatives composing
the Conservative strength, accepted the
plan, but the remaining 27, under the
leadership of Witt and McEnery, with.
drew and held mass meeting the fol
lowing evening at which inhammatory
speeches were made, and resolutions
passed condemning the compromise pro
ceedings. These proceedings produced
a serious split in the Democratic party
of Louisiana, and did more to show the
honest, peaceful people where they
stood than anything that had taken
place. They wanted peace, and being
themselves convinced that McEnery
was not elected in 1872, they did not
wish to have turmoil and strife continue
another two years; but the McEnery-
Wiltz faction, which had everything to
gain by keeping the strife alive were am
bilious to continue the contest. So
matters stood on Mandsy, when another
caucus was held. The compromise par
ty, supported by the business element
of the estate stood firm, and finally, on
Tuesday, the fre-enters agreed to the
compromise, merely emitting the clause
against impeaching the Governor and
substituting therefor provision not to
disturb 4lim 50 long as he was sustained
by the president. The Investigating
Committee had concluded it's labors and
returned to Washington on Monday
night, Mr.. Wheeler only remaining to
settle the agreement. At Memphis he
overlook the rest of the comInettee, and
on consultation they decided the agree
ment thus hampered could not be re-
ceived. 1t is to be regretted that in the
interests of peace the contract as origin
ally drawn could not have received the
unanimous sanction of the Conserva-
tives.

recently elected Chief Justice of the
Supreme Court Of Rhode Island, Thorn
as Durfee, declined taking his seat until
the Legislature should reduce the salary
from $5, 900 to $4,000. He expressed
the belief that $500 difference between

Legislature with commendable alacrity
granted his request and reduced the
salary $500. Mr.. Durfee is now hap

B&S The modified Adsir Law is real
ly an element of strength, when prop
erly considered. The notice required
having been given, in suits brought TO
recover II viii be less difficult to secure
"a verdict, and damages. The general
principle OF the law remains the same
al before, hut under the new statute,
when husband, father, son, guardian,
wsrd, etc, drinks to excess, his wife,
daughter, son, or other interested per
ser. may notify the salOon-leeper, Of
whom he buys his poison, not to supply
him further. Ehat notification takes
immediate effect. 1t may be verbal OF
. in writing, but il is final In all vii
lagos OF country places where the liquor
sellers are few and well known, this
method Of personal notification will be
wholly effective. In the case ef cities
where the pumber Of drinking places is
too large to dbe separately notified, the
complainant simply files the notice with
the County on City Clerk, and It is The
business of all liquor sellers to inform
themselves of such notice within ten
days and conform to it permanently.
There can be no exception taken to
this. 1t simply removes from the law
the ''blsek mail provision, " as it waf
styled, under which suits could be
brought by arrangement, and blackmGl
levied to secure the non prosecution Of
the charge.
