cause of the necessity of the speedy cleo
Pope. Thenumber of Cardinals has never
exceeded seventy, and we believe now only
consists, with the new appointments, of
81. OF this number Italy will have no
fewer than 50 Cardinals of the three orders
of Bishops, Priests and Deacons. Austria
and France have five each. Spain has
FOUR two of whom are natives of the new
world, one having been born in Cuba and
the other in Guatemala. Germany and
Belgium one each. England, Ireland and
America one each. There will therefore
be three English-speaking Cardinals in the
College, thing which has not happened
since the Reformation. Cardinal Pole
when he died in 1868, being the only
English-speaking prelate in that body, if
the gibberish spoken in those days can be
considered English. When the last of the
Inflated of the house of Stuarts, the Car
dinal of York, died at Rome in 1907, there
was no English Cardinal until 1880, when
Cardinal Weld was appointed. He died
in 1887. There was no appointment then
until that of Cardinal Wiseman in 1850
Sometime after his death and in 1866, DR..
Cullen, the Archbishop of Dublin, was
elevated to the purple.
| When the Pope dies, as we presume he
will some of these days, we suppose it will
be the duty of Cardinal McCloskey to
proceed with all haste to Rome to assist
in the election ola successor to the papacy.
The Cardinals wear scarlet hat and cape
the color of which is supposed to symbol
LIE their readiness to shed their blood for
the Church, and their appearance is made
very striking thereby. The title of Car
dinal is His Eminence," and doubtless
this Will be pleasant to the republican ears
of those who are so fond of calling the
President His Excellency," members of
the Legislature the Hon" So and-so and
everybody else, except the Colonies and
Majors, Esquires.

New Hampshire Election.

The wonderful Republican victory in
this State. over which there was So much
rejoicing. turns out not to be so much, il
any at all, of victory for that party
They failed to elect :heir Governor. as i,
requires majority to do so. and Cheney
their candidate whilst he had a plurality
of 122 over the Democratic candidate
lacked a majority. But as the Republic
cans are supposed tn have elected major
ity in the Legislature, Cheney will doubt
less be made Governor The Democrats
have carried the Council and elected two
out of the three Congressman, being gain
of one member. We think we ought to
be very we'll satisfied with this Success
New Hampshire has always been a Repub-
lican State and has only been carried late
ly by the Democrats because the Prohibi-
tionists, mostly Republicans, have been
running 4 candidates OF their own and
voting for him. But this year, though
they nominated candidate, yet he only
got 754 notes.-the rest of that party voting
with the Republicans. But even to accom-
plish this much it was necessary for the
Republicans to pass a decided censure on
the Administration by engrafting on their
platform a resolution condemning in the
most unequivocal language the third term
aspirations of Grant. 4

L. -. Senate,

/ During the rast week the Senate has
been in session listening to an average of
one dreary speech day on the Pinchback
case, then after an executive session, adj
journing. The two features of the week.
which have relieved the mouotonv. have
been the speeches Judge Christiancy, of
Michigan, and Gov. Whytc. of tins State.
Both speeches are spoken Of very highly.
That of Mr.. Christiancy, who is the sue
cessor of old lack Chandler and n Repub-
lican, is said to have been specially dam
aging to the cause of the would-bc Sena-
tor.
On Tuesday, Mr. Acorn. Of Miss. who
has heretofore been opposed to the admis-
sion of Pinchback. avowed his purpose to
vote now in favor OF it, on the ground
that the Kellogg government had been
recognized by the House of Representa-
tives. Mr.. Alcorn is candidate Tor re
election and wants To get the votes of the
negro legislators of Mississippi. After
speeches by Messrs. Edmunds and Melon
aid against, and Messrs. Howe. Logan and

1t seems that Pinch friends have found
out that If direct vote on his admission
were taken he would be defeated, and that
il was possible, under the compromise
made with regard to the Legislature Of
Louisiana. Conservative might be elect
ed to fill the vacancy. Therefore they
preferred postponing the matter until
next December. when il can be called up
again, to absolutely rejecting him. The
Democrats voted against the postpone
ment because they wanted direct vote
confident, as they were, that the colorcd
gentlemen from Louisiana would be re-

adjourn now as it is nearly if not quite

will not take up any other

Louisiana Arbitration

The Washington Star states, upon infor-
nation gathered from Col. Zacharie. who
arrived at Washington from New York,
on Tuesday last and left for New Orleans
that night, that it is understood the basis
OF the Wheeler compromise, which has
been sent to Governor Kellogg at New
Orleans, is about this: One additional
Conservative is seated in the Senate The
lower house of the Legislature is Conser-
vative by majority of twelve, but the
two houses on joint ballot will be tied on
a party vote, and if the acceptance of the
Wheeler compromise is assumed it is prob

Republican, he will vote for Conserva-
tive citizen OF the State rather than join
Port Tobacco times, and Charles County advertiser. (Port Tobacco, Md.) 1845-1898, 1875-03-19

Such slice taken from his worldly goods
would doubtless distract the mind of the
good man too much and prevent him from
prophesying. And then besides, he is
bound to protect all the prophets like
himself from all such innovators as Judge
Mexican. Because if this decision is to
stand against the Prophet of the Latter
Day-Saints, who knows but what Judge
Nelson might, render similar decision
against Henry Ward, the Prophet of Ply

alimony. The cases strike US as being
very nearly akin, and we think the one
