tanning to the average politician who
shrieks his way throus Oh ward club with
"reform" on his tongue and official per
quisites in his heart. OF course, no leg.
islation was looked for SO long as the
patronage Of the House remained in
allegiance. Another session of the Legis-
lature would have been FILTERED away to
as little profit as the last. unless the cham
pion reformers had either achieved success
or experienced failure in the pursuit of
their darling projects.
We have had no opportunity for well
considered legislation during several
years. The minds of the leading mem
bers were absorbed by the immediate
necessity for defending their positions,
securing quorum from day to day, and
looking after the weaker brethren who be-
trayed an irresistible penchant tor con-
sorting with certain we'll dressed, gentle
manly appearing lobbyists whose chief
business it was to secure the greatest
amount of monopoly for the least possible
amount in greenbacks. With the usher
ing in of adjustment We hoped for sub
stantial improvement. That private in
terests would be subordinated to public
good and the fashion of getting into place
upon pledges which were forgotten i'm
mediately would bee ONE obsolete. As yet,
we have seen nothing to justify such ex-
pectations. The members do not behave
any better under the influence of adjust
ment than they did before.
With the final defeat of the Bourbon
element, headed by Mr.. Wilt, and the
success Of the Conservat ives, assisted by
the Republi cans, we are willing to renew
our hopes for the future. MIR. Estilette
owes his promotion to his we'll known
moderation and to general belief among
the Republicans that he is better expo
nent Of the new pc litical sentiment which
has sprung up since the first of January
than his successful competitor for the |
regular Dem ocratic nomination. If this |
between the Liberals and the Re- I
publicans can be accepted as the harbin-
ger of better feeling in the future, we
shall hail it as bright omen. For while
We should have preferred a. Speaker Sc
lected from the tried and true men of our
OWN party, we are glad to know that the
he successful gentleman commands the
and respect of the Republicans
n the House. 1t secures us FROM the

A HIGHLY IMMORAL SUGGESTION,

They might vote Crozier out and they
might vote Mr.. Goode in. just as they have
often done before in cases in which Con
servatives we're to be expurgated and Re-
publicans introduced PNdyune.
We regret to see our professedly high
toned and moral neighbor giving sanction
to such pernicious doctrine. The objec-
tons to accepting the suggestions are
numerous ard weighty:
l. It would be wrong, as the Picayune
has repeatedly. demonstrated. for the
Senate to admit any claimant to seat
who has not been elected; and now the
Republican party has grown into such
favor with the white mans party that .
truce has been proclaimed, it is proper
that our Senators should. at first at any

is q fat denial of every charge or imputa-
ton against him, to which each may &C.
cord such faith as he may deem proper
A member of a Christian church, if capa-
bic of the crime alleged, would be assuredly
capable of denying it. The consequences
of q moral conviction would be over
whelming. The loss of wealth and good
name would be terrible to bear. The
social and professional consequences i'm
pending are so awfu! that few men lying
awake night after night and contemplating
their possibility would have the nerve of
st. Augustine and confess that the weak
ness of the flesh proved sometimes
stronger than the obligations of the spirit.
Most men reviewing all the circumstances
of proof or doubt would have compound
ed with their conscience and deemed it
better to repent in future than to be cru
cited at the present
The opinion of the public is said by
some Of the New York press to stand just
as it did at the beginning Of the trial. It
is believed that the offense charged may
possibly have been committed, and the
testimony on one side has greatly dis
paraged the character of the plaintiff,
while it has by no means placed that OF
the defendant above suspicion.
The unhappy notorie:y Of this trial has
proved that, however great may be the
authority of any man with his own dis
ciples, there is no such sanctity attributed
by the press or the people. Many dis
men in all ages have had the
zenith and the nadir of their fame.
They have been followed by adulation,
and again men have shrunk from and be-
trayed them. Great and pure men will
so live that the small clear voice of an |
conscience will rise even above
the olamor of public applause. This pure
orison will be all the more melodious !
when the applause shall have ceased, or
even when applause shall have been
changed into execration.

A CONTRAST.

When every Republican member of the
House save one gave his vote for MIR.
Estilette for Speaker yesterday, thus de-
serting an unexceptionable man of their
own party. one in whom all have conf
dence, it was regarded by Speaker Hahn
as sacrifice for the sake of peace and
unity, and he voted with the rest. But
when Mr.. Wilt saw large number Of
Conservatives emancipating themselves
from an intolefable thraldom he lost his
temper. and raised the cry which is many
centuries old, that 1.-The people had been
betrayed"
There was no valid reason for changing
the Speaker at all, but the majority Of
the members thought otherwise, and Gov
ernor Hahn yielded with grace. Here is
a contrast which we chronicle as compli-
mentary to our side

rate, carefully avoid those practices which
are known to have grieved and irritatet
the Democracy.
z The Senate itself is the sole Judge o
the election of . member. The two Re
publican committees-we never heard O
them-and the Congress, upon who's,
judgment the '1picayune lays 80 much
stress. have nothing whatever to do with
the subject. As the Senate has once de-
cided this same case, and it being the
tribunal OF last resort, we can not see how
that body can consistently vote that thei,
final action in the case was without evi.
dence.
The Pscoyuns's superstition that Mr..
Goode had the vote of the people of his
district is without any weight 1t is not
evidence in any place whatsoever.
3. Whatever may have been the usage
Of the Republican party, in the matter of
settling contests of election, it has never
been carried to the extent of voting q
Republican out to get Democrat in, un-
less very strong case indeed was made
out against the sitting member. The
trained elephant at the menagerie would
take the dollar and put it up out of reach,
but his education stopped there. He had
never learned to take it down again and
return it to the owner In like manner
we can hardly suppose the Republicans
will do an act which has been condemned
as wrong by the Demo crafts, to give the
opposition another vote III the Legisla-
ture.
The Republicans being now brigaded
with good men ought to be good them
selves, in order that they may be worthy
OF such choice company. And as reform
is the leading idea for which the State has
been subjected to the exp ense of I'll extra
session, and squabbles for Office either
secondary or prohibited altogether, the
grand work will not suffer much damage
if Mr.. Crozier remains undisturbed. He
is presumptively as good reformer as |
s1r. Goode. and, if the constitutional
forms in such cases provi ded are to count
for anything, the decision of the Senate in |
his matter gives him an absolute, indie |
feasible right to his seat. We may regret |
he dissent Of the two Republican commit |
ees, and of Congress and the Picuyune,
out right is right, and the decision of the
Returning Board and the Senate are GER
ainly entitled to param cunt considera-
ion.
