IT is said by the friends of Grant
in defence of his military raid on the
Legislature of Louisiana, that nothing
more was done than removing five
members from the hall of the House
who bad not been elected, and who
therefore had 10 right to occupy seats
The mere fact of Interference, no mat
ter for what purpose, or on what pre-
text, constitutes the illegal and unwar-
ranted offence for which there can be
no palliation or excuse. If a State
constitution has any force and valiii-
ty and if it is worth preserving and
being maintained, neither Grant, nor
Kellogg, nor any other human being,
had any more right to decide whether
these five members were legally elect
ed or whether they were not than
would Marshall MacMabon, President
of France. 1T Is a question to he de-
termined by the Legislature itself and
by no other power, and when its con-
stitutional prerogative is forciblv in
terfered with, the man who attempts
1t becomes usurper an / q tyrant.-
a Legislative hall is above all military
control or supervision, and when it
can be invaded with an armed force
and men are found willing to defend
the outrage, what is boasted of in this
country as the liberty of The people
becomes miserable cheat and an emp
ty name.

THE Chicago Tribune, administra-
ton, most severely denounces the pol
icy adopted bv the Republican Caucus
, Committee of the House, and has no
hesitation in saving that it has been
: suggested by narrow-minded politi-
clans who are utterly incapable of APP
l.reciating the experience of the past
and of conceiving a policy for the fu.
ture. 1t further says:
1--WE cannot believe that the Republican
party in Congress will adopt such short
sighted and inccnseGuential conclusions.
If it does, it will contribute to the stock of
the perils of the future by endangering
party success in 1876, and give the Demo
Gratis a still stronger hold upon the country
th an they now unfortunately possess.
"Tbe programme OF this Caucus Com
mittee is little better than imbecile. 1t
provides no remedy for the existing evil.
1t leaves louisiana in the same unfortunate e
condition it is now. it forces upon the
President the painful duty of sustaining
by the power of the United States troops
what he has already characterized as a
gigantic fraud"
The article closes with a warning
to the members of the causus and tells
them what they may expect from the
Democratic House:
eff the Republican party should adopt
these recommendations, it would simply
vaunt red flag III the face of the Demo
cratic bull, which is going to make havoc
enough among the china as it is. The
present Congress has a life of only five or
six weeks more. Then comes the deluge.
The House will be Democratic by nearly
two to one. The power which the popu-
lar branch of Congress can exercise, though
curbcd to some extent by the Senate, is al
most absolute. / may clog the wheels of
Government whenever il secs fit, and neith-
er the Senate, nor the Executive, nor the
Judiciary can prevent it. 1t has exclusive
control OF all revenue bills ard appro-
priations. The Democratic House can re-
fuse to appropriate a dollar for the sup
port of an army which it will profess to
believe to be kept mp mainly for the pur-
pose of sustaining the kellogg fraud. 1t
may leave :he country without regiment
or a squad of soldiers. 1t may bring in
articles of impeachment against the Presi-
dent. 1t may refuse necessary legislation
for the conduct of any branch of the Gov
eminent, and starve the Executive into
compliance. And it is impossible that the
Democratic House Will resort to some of
these dangerous powers if the Republicans
now bind it to policy towards the South
Which it cannot repeal the Senate still be-
ing Republican. The danger is altogether
too great to be necdlessly incurred.
ave cannot help thinking that the pro
granme which has been announced is the
result Of preponderating strength of the
carpet bag element in the Caucus Com
mttee. We do not believe that the Re
publican party will adopt it. 1t not only
wrong in purpose but iiurtful in policy,
and would bring with il n.nHmerable evils
to the Republican cause and to the country

FIGHT WITH WILD STEER. Dun
lap, superintendent of Reavis' Tehama
county (Cal.) farm. last week had a terri
ble fight with wild steer. The steer was
of the Mexican breed, SO well known to all
old Californans for their savage and pug
naciouS disposition. For a number of years
this steer has occupied almost alone the
chaparral brushwood of the premises, all
beasts, wild or tame, seeming to acknowl-
edge his undisputed right. He has sue
cessfully resisted all attempts at his remov-
al, and made the place dangerous to all
trespassers. The old possessers of the ter
ritory permitted lis undisturbed occupation
rather than incur the risk to life in the at
tempt to dislodge him. Mr.. Dunlap, the
n:w incumbent, determined to make the
effort to rid the premises of so dangerous a
tenant. So one day last week, in company
with another man, both armed with Henry
rifles and bowie knives, they entered tho
chaparral. Not until they reached the CEN
ter of the thicllet did they observe the game
they were looking for. Their first intima-
ton of the steers presence was the crack
ling of the brush, and then a furious rush
toward them. Standing their ground, they
poured from their Ilenrys shot after shot
as tho steer approached, until his proximity
became too close to be pleasant or safe,
when they retreated to tree near by.
They had just reached their chosen in>
trenchment when the iafuriated animal
struck the tree with his head, his horns ex-
tending each side and reaching very nearly
his hunters. For the space of one hour he
held them captive behind the tree, and
compelled them to quick-step all the time
to keep out of his reach At last Mr.. Dun
lap managed to get in a shot just behind
the shoulder, bringing his steership TO his
knees, which, followed by another from his
companion. laid him out. Upon examina-
ton eight bullets were found i'll his body.

To give her spirit rest

When iortare fails, and would not forge:
That time may bring me ills when am old,

She trusts IN Christ, and when her slender hand
Touches my brow feel His presence near
Sac only waits upon the narrow land,
That bounds her heavenly sphere.

A little while, whatever trials come,
And God will wipe her bitter tears away,
And take her 10 His home.
