Mr.. Alexander II. Stephens is not so
popular in the South as he was, and the
jealous admirer who has nominated him
for the Presidency must be getting dis
couraged at the prospect before him. The
press of his own State complains bitterly
of his ambiguous course; and a journal in
North Carolina, The Piedmont Press,
throws him overheard in this way: This
abominable old demagogue has either vot-
ed with the Radicals OF else not voted at
all, as on the Civil Rights bill. There is
certainly no longer reason for CHASING
him among the Democrats, and we hope
the people in the With Congressional
District of Georgia will either rcpudiate
him, or else cease their attempts to imposo
upon the country by calling themselves
Democrats. We were astonished at his
election by the party, and have seen album
dant cause to justify our worst fears OF his
unfaithfulness to his race and section"

denouncing the President as tyrant Randolph,
the new Senator from New Jersey, closed the de-
bate of the day. His speech not less bitter than
those which had preceded, but scholars hand
was manifest in its preparation. The elocution of
its delivery, however, was somewhat too stilted,
resembling in parts the intonation of a droning

Upon the resolution will doubtless be taken before

that Senator Morton may reply to Andrew john

A correspondent of the Boston Globe
says conservative member OF the
Louisiana legislature publishes state
ment to show that when the legislature
was convened in special session by Gov
ernor Warmoth, December 10, 1872. for
the avowed purpose of declaring the re-
suit of the election for Governor and
Lieutenant Governor, it met in joint SEES
sion the second day of the session to count
the vote for Governor and declare the re-
suit, as required by article AZ OF the Con-
stitution. There was quorum present Of
members, returned as elected by both
Boards, among others Booth, Voorhees,,
Mcmillan, Daig C. Campbell, jerks, No
land and other Fusion Senators, and over
twenty Fusion members of the House.
most of whom left the legislature day or
two after. The Journal shows that this
joint session did count the votes and final
ly declared Kellogg elected Governor.
Afterwards. at the regular session. in 1873,
most Of the Fusion members having in the
meantime returned, another count was had
and Kellogg declared elected; but the fact
that the first count was held in the pres
ence OF an undisputed legal quorum, can
not be disputed He also makes the point
that Kellogg received nearly 5000 more
votes than the res Of his ticket, according
even to Fusion returns.

THE POSTAGE INCREASE ACT.

IHE fOl1JAbE Nv NE noe At L.
There is great deal of severe criticism Of the
act passed in the closing days Of lie last
Congress increasing the rates Of postage
on transient newspapers and other mailable mat
ter embraced in what is known as the third class
This class embraces the following articles:
"Al pamphlets, occasional publications, tran
sient newspapers, magazines, bandbills, posters,
unsealed circulars, prospectuses, books, book
manuscript, proofsheets, corrected proof-sheets,
maps, prints, engravngs, blanks, flexible patterns,
articles of merchandise, sample cards, photograph
ic paper, letter envelopes, postal envelopes, and
wrappers, cards. plain and ornamental paper,
Photographic representations of different types
seeds, cuttings bulbs, roots scions, and all other
matter which may be declared ma liable by law
and Ill other articles not above the weight pre-
scribed by law, which are not, from their form or
nature liable to destroy, deface, or otherwise in
jure the contents of the mailbag or the person Of
any one engaged in the postal service
The increase was effected by an amendment to
The sundry civil appropriation bill, which was
o6ersd by Mr. Hamln, he evidently supposng
that the amendment was only intended to increase
The rate of postage on merchandise passing
through the mail. The proceedings in the Senate
upon the offering and passage of the amendment
. published in the Congressional Record, show
