The New York Mercury has Wash
ington dispatch alleging that the
excursion of Senator Cameron and others
to Mexico has FORTS object the annexation
by purchase by the United States of the
Northern States of that republic. The
Mexican authorizes are understood to
have already acquisced to the transfer,
the terms of which are yet to be settled.
The territory proposed to be annexed is
all that part of Mexico lying north of the
Rapido River and the Rio Grande de
Santiago comprising the States of Sonora
chihuahua, Coahuela, Nuevo, Leon,
Cinaloa, Durango and Zacatecas, one
half of Tamaulipas, one third of Jalisco,
small portion of San Luis Potosi, and
tie territory of Lower California, alto
gether about 43S, 900 square miles Of
territory, and over l, 50O,O00 population,
of whom less than 500, ZOO are whites,
the rest being Indians and mixed races.
The boundary line will commence at the
mouth of the Rapido, following that
river to its source toward the town of
Penos in latitude 22-35, longitude 1O1-7O
thence to the source Of the river Santiago
and along that stream to its mouth. The
movement is understood to have origi-
mated with the Mexican authorities, who
desire to see this sparsely settled country
placed under a power possessing the
means of enforcing order among its pop
ulatiOn and Of inviting emigration thlther.

A PRESIDENTIAL ENCOUNTER.-AC CHI
cago Times Washington dispatch, gives
the following account Of an encounter
between President Grant and ex-Presi-
dent Andy johnson, who are not on
speaking terms since the impeachment
trial:
There was memorable meeting upon
Pennsylvania avenue last evening, in
the neighborhood of half-past 6 o'clock.
President Grant was out for walk. He
came down the avenue calmly putting a
cigar, apparently absorbed in mighty
thoughts When he came along in front
of the Imperial Hotel, where Andy
johnson resides, the President saw John
son getting out of a car and starting for
the hotel, in direction that would bring
him across Grants path. The President
quickened his pace to avoid meeting
johnson, but the crowd of loungers
around him prevented him from making
as much speed as he desired. He lost
sight Of Johnson, and when he thought
he had passed him, he ran right into the
Tennessee Senator, nearly knocking him
down. The two men glanced at one an
other, as they began an apology, when
each perceived the other. At this both
men stiffened. Not q word further was
SAID. No sign of recognition was mace
by either. Johnson walked stif1y toward
the hotel, his pugnacious nose high in
the air, while Grant walked stolidly on
down the avenue

THE Legislature took quite step in
the direction Of female suffrage, by the
passage of law making women eligible
to hold school offices. The following is
the first section of the act:
Every woman of the age of twenty
years and upwards, residing in the dis
trict within which the duties of the Of
flee are to be performed, is hereby de-
clared to be eligible and may be elected
to the following school offices, viz: The
Office of director, treasurer and clerk of
school districts: director and secretary
of town boards, under the township
system of school government; member
of board of education in cities; and
country superintendent of schools.
Such law is in force in Illinois and
one or two other States, and we believe
has been found to work well and salts
factory where women have been elected
to school offices. There is certainly no
reason why they could not discharge the
duties of any Of the Offices mentioned in
the act as satisfactorily as their bigger,
if not better, companions. Besides it
opens to women another channel In
which to earn livelihood and gives to
the strong minded an incentive to work
for that pole star of their hopes-the

REPUTATION AVOWED.

The Nashville (Tenn) Banner, ultra
Democratic, presents to the people Of
Tennessee our comments upon the pro-
position of ex-Gov. Walker, of Virginia,
who will probably be the Speaker OF the
next Democratic House of Representa-
tives, that the United States shall as
sumo the debts of all the States. It will
be remembered that the fifteen pro-
nounced Democratic States owe S2l2,-
OOO. 900, while all the others owe only
SIO9, 100000. The Banner presents the
figures temptingly to the Democrats OF
the South, and reminds them that
slavery was abolished sat the expense
of the South" intimating that here is a
small chance of getting part compensa-
ton therefor. The Banner, however,
inclines to the opinion that the assUmp-
ton of these State debts Is but tr1f1e !;
and indicates that there is greater de-
hverance from debt than any which IS
offered by such proceeding. 1t says:
THE TRIBUNE is one of the credulous min
ority who believe. or pretend to beneve, tna1
the national debt will ever be paid. In the
estimation of many others, even payment OF
the interest is doubtful.
Of course, if the Democratic party
proposes to repudiate the principal of
the public debt, and even to stop pay
ment on the interest, then, Of course,
the assumption of the State debts be-
comes very Insignificant matter: If
the national debt is to be repudiated. to
include in that Reputation $500, OOO,-
600 more would not add very seriously
to the dishonesty and disgrace OF the
proceeding. IF the Banner is authoriz-
ed to speak for the Democratic party,
Or even for the Democrats of Tennessee.
that the policy of the party aims at the
Reputation Of the national debt, and
will not be satisfied with the small game
of assuming the State debts excerpts to
repudiate them also, then we are pre-
pared to admit that Gov. Walkers pro-
position is small affair compared with
that which the Banner SO candidly
avows.-Ch5cago Tribune.

THE New York Tribune, next to the
New York Sun, has been the most vio-
lent anti-Repubhcan paper in all the
North for the last three years, but it
seems to be modifying its tone and ut
terances little of late. 1t begins to
think that the Republican party is not
entirely depraved, but has some good
things in it yet. In recent issue it
says:
Notwithstanding the overwhelming
defeat in the fall elections, there is no
desire on the part of the people for a
final Reputation of the Republican par
". 1t IS rather reputation of the
party leaders and a call for change of
leadership and of policy. The Demo-
cratic party offers little in the shape of a
policy except with reference to Southern
affairs that can win popular support,
and where it has had the Opportunities
Of power it has too often disappointed
those who expected from it anything in
the way of Improvement or reform. So
far as there is any affection for names
and party records remaining, there is a
strong preference in the public mind for
the Republican party. Its work and
record give it place in the popular
heart that no other organization can oc-
cupy. Ali other things being equal, the
Republican party with wise leadership
and honest administration could hold
the country. Its mistake has been in
trusting too much to its past
record and being too careless of the pres
ent and future. The Democrats also
make the mistake whenever they get a
taste of power of taking it for granted
that they have been taken back into
public confidence, and so with wild reclz-
lessness they go on In such fashion as to
forfeit at once ell they have gained.

THE decision of the Arbitration Com
mittee in Louisiana acting under the
terms of the Wheeler compromise has
been submitted to Gov. Kellogg. It's
effect is understood to be the award of
seats in the Legislature to eleven Con
servatives who were not counted in by
the Returning Board, and the unseat-
ing of six Conservatives claimed to have
been elected. It leaves a majority for
the Democrats in the House. while the
Republicans have the Senate. with a
small Republican majority upon joint
ballot. An extra session of the Legisla-
ture will probably convene about the
10Th of April, and it is believed that the
people of Louisiana, tired of the strife.
will readily accept the adjustment.

A STORY comes from Blue Earth Coun-
ty, Minnesota, which, if true, may well
cause some alarm among the farmers of
that section. It is said that a farmer
there found in one peck of earth eight
hundred grasshopper eggs, all of which
being warmed near stove Matched out.
Southern and Western Minnesota has
been afflicted with the insect for two
years, and is likely to be again. Many
farmers are reported to be thoroughly
discouraged by the news. and are pre-
pairing to leave the country. If this
condition of affairs pervails in all the re-
gions devastated last year there will be
serious trouble and a great many home
steads deserted; but we trust that there
is some mistake or exaggeration IN the
report.
