pursuing this business of court making.
Two or three of our judges are considered
rather weak by the bar; but as they were
chosen by the people, it is not in the prov
ince of the Legislature to interfere. We
see that proposition has been intro
duced into the Senate to abolish the
Fourth and Superior District Courts, and
create another tribunal upon some new
basis. We regard this as highly impolitic
measure, one not demanded by the public
interests, nor asked tor by either political
party. There is very large amount of
ugent business awaiting legislative action,
which should be dispatched before taking
up doubtful schemes. Governor Kellogg's
skirts are clear of the charges that he has
manipulated the judiciary, and We hope
the General Assembly will abstain from
burdening him with the responsibility in
volved in the Senate bill.

THE COMPR0MIsERs IN WASHINGTON.


While the Democratic caucus at Deutsch,
Company Hall have formally turned theil
backs upon compromise at the dictatior
Of meeting at Clay statue, certain pill
grims of that ilk have gone on to Wash
ington to have some sent out per order
Messrs. Burke and Zacharie are reported
to be at the national capital skirmishine
around, interviewing Senators, telegraphic
operators and prominent gentlemen, in
the interest Of compromise. We don't
know what they will do with it if they get
it. The Republicans of Louisiana are
not at present in the vein to sell out. the
control of the House of Representatives
which is substantial, valuable, vital for
the promise Of recognition of Governor
Kellogg by the Democrats, which would
be unsubstantial, visionary, empty and
insincere. For all practical purposes
Governor Kellogg is sufficiently re-
cognized already. No one who has
the right or the power to do SO
has ever denied his authority or
questioned his title. Those who would
now sell their promise of acquiescence at
a great price have resorted to every trick
which the ingenious mind Of man can in
vent to drive him from the executive
Office. Having been hurled back, baffled
and disheartened, they now propose to
cease their attempts, close out the war,
and admit their hypocrisy and mistake if
the Republican party will only place a
club in their hands with which they can
easily break the Governors head in half
an hour. 1t is true, they pledge them
selves not to do it, but the same men once
promised to elect Governor Warmoth to
the Senate if he would serve them. The
Governor did the work as well as he could.
The Democrats accepted the fruits of his
services, claimed the political control of the
State as resulting consequence, and elect
ed their benefactor's rival, McMillen, to the
Senate, instead of the man who held their
promise. Governor Kellogg's administra-
ton would not last three days after the
Democracy obtained control of the House,
and the more indiscreet or honest of the
Democracy make no effort to conceal the
real intent. There is, then, no possible
chance for compromise upon the Dem
ocratic basis surrender by the Repub-
licans OF everything for nothing.
1t is desirable for several reasons that
the Democratic members who have been
elected to the Legislature should take
their places and go to work. But the
party is not ready to purchase
this insignificant benefit at the high cost
Of its entire abdication. Messrs. Burke,
and everybody else may as we'll
abandon that insane idea.

The tragedy which resulted in the kill
ing of United States soldier by COL
ored man is seized upon by the jocose
White League organs as a fit subject for
sneers and witticisms. If so much hi
parity is occasioned by the death of one
'iron-heeled despot' and the consequent
peril of another voter, what would be the
result Of general massacre of troops by
the negroes? Verify, when man en-
cages for twenty dollars week to write
for White League organs he lays his hu-
mainly aside and assumes the character
of his subterranean majesty. Perhaps,
however, they are all elated to think that
but one soldier was killed when there
might have been more. Such was the
reason given by one Of these papers for
its indecent exhibition Of glee on discov-
ering that General Sheridan only had
succeeded in exhuming 2141 victims of
Democratic guerrilla warfare, when it is
well known that many more have been
killed.

The fact that the announcement was not
made in any other paper THAN the Bulletin
led many to hope that it was unfoanded.
The above extract is from late num-
Der of the Bulletin. The suspicion thrown
upon the paper as to its reliability is
the mind Of frequently gulled public.
Yesterday evening the Bulletin announced
that. the appropriation bill had passed
the House. The fact that no other paper
had the news led many people to believe
that the statement was not true, and it
was not.

United States can initiate with effect a
continental policy which. will at once
disseminate republican principles, and
secure for the people and productions of
the United States far more extended
market than heretofore enjoyed by them.
To effect this it is indispensable that a
firm and sincere alliance, offensive and
defensive, should be formed between the
two republics The United States needs
no additional territory. She needs that
commercial intercourse which war de-
stroys. She needs that knowledge of the
Spanish American people which Mexico
possesses. The United States needs Mex
leo as an ally to- guarantee the
maritime and commercial rights of the
continent, its islands and its isthuian
crossings. With the aid of Mexico the
United States may dispense with all Eu-
ropean coprotectorates on the continent
of America. With the influence and in
depreciation Of Mexico the commerce and
the confidence of the five republics of
Central America can be secured and the
whole policy of the continent made bar
monious and identical.
A principal measure to effect this policy
will be to begin at once system of sepa-
rate treaties with these States. 1t will be
proper to abolish the present principle Of
opening this trade upon the basis Of uni:
versal admission of all nations to what
ever rights may be enjoyed by the States
of this continent among themselves. The
American States should substitute the
principle of special and reciprocal e1-
change of commodities as embodied in
the former reciprocal convention with
England in regard to her continental
colony Of Canada. To this should be
added all such interchange of facilities of
intercourse by railroad grants and steam
ship subsidies, by protection to immi-
grants, and by such social interchange
Of Inequalities as will make each citizen
Of the one country feel at home in the
country of the other.
Such overtures Of friendship and mu-
tual interest will be useful to both coun-
tries, but to the United States it will be
invaluable in establishing her principles
so firmly that neither armies nor navies
will be necessary to. enforce or maintain
them.
