has such correct and unbiased sources of
information as he has through the reports
of military officers, who know no party
and are generally considered free from
prejudice. Many of the heightened brag-
CARTS who are now trying to bluff Northern
Democrats into the belief of their loyalty
to the Government and their innocence
would be surprised to learn to what extent
their names figure in the military reports
on file in the War Department. The Presi-
dent has not proceeded in the dark. He
has not relied upon Associated Press tele-
grams. When the truth is sent to Con-
gress, as compiled from such sources, and
published to the country, the reaction in
approval of the precautions taken by Gen.
Grant for the prevention Of the intended
massacres will be fearful. The clergy,
merchants, bankers and underwriters who
have been forced forward by the banditti
to protest that they knew nothing of White
Leagues and assassins undoubtedly are in
nocent of all knowledge and participation
in their conspiracies and crimes. But Gen.
Sheridan knew whom he was speaking of
when he named them bandits.

THE prompt passage of the financial
bill by the House yesterday by decisive
vote is matter for party congratulation.
1t indicates that the Republicans are again
alive to the necessity of accepting the re-
sponsibilities forced upon them by reason of
their numerical majority in Congress. 1t
also exhibits that high degree of true
patriotism which is essential to statesman
ship; the power to accord the same gener-
Gus charity to the convictions of others
which is claimed for oneself This die
tates general sacrifice of something by
all to the general good. The result is
nearly always a moderate, fair and con-
seryative measure. 1t will prove so in
the present instance. We shall set out on
the road to specie payments without any
financial shock or commercial disturbance,
so gradual will be our approach to the
coin basis. At the same time the country,
relieved from all apprehension of unwise
legislation upon this subject, will immedi.
ately launch out upon a new career Of
prosperity.

THE Louisiana disturbance, in a nut
shell, is as follows: The Democrats, see
ing that q Republican majority was de-
clared, set to work to secure control of the
Legislature. First of all, as is clearly
shown and not contradicted, they kid
mapped one or more Republican members,
and conveyed them beyond reach. There
is no reason to doubt the report that they
intimidated others. Subsequently, when
the Legislature met, they resorted to vio-
lence, driving the clerk, who was attempt
ing to organize the House in pursuance of
law, from his place, and electing Speaker
without observing the regular forms, who
seized the presiding officers chair, in clear
violation of law Here was rs plain and
violent coup d'etGt as that by which Louis
Napoleon seized the Government of France.
Previous to this, in violation of solemn
pledges to the contrary. and in defiance of
the returns of the Returning Board, five
persons were seated as members who were
not entitled to seats. Upon these points
there is no dispute. Accounts from both
sides agree regarding them. Subsequently
it appears that the Republicans were in
clined to withdraw from the Hall, and on
the request of the fraudulently elected
Democratic Speaker the troops were called
in. Gen. De Trobriand, the commanding
officer of the troops, proceeded, under or
de-s from Gen. Emory, to prevent the five
usurping members from participating in
the proceedings. At this the Democrats
left the Hall in body. Afterwards Gen.
Sheridan asserted his authority, and took
command of the Department of the Gulf
Since then there has been comparative
quiet, and, so far as we are advised, no at
tempt has been made by the Democrats to
carry out their coup detat.

THE Albany EOeniRg Journal. one of
the most reliable Republican journals in
the country, was discreet enough when
the information of the late disturbances in
New Orleans was first received to advise
its readers to wait for "a clear and just I'M
Outstanding Of the exact facts" Of the case
before pronouncing judgment Further, the
Journal did not overlook the fact, as many
other papers have, that the first appear
ance of the troops in the State-house twas
"upon the invitation of the Conservatives
" themselves" We allude TO these graft
flying indications of the Journals careful
treatment of this important subject simply
for the purpose of assuring our readers
that the hot-headed, biased and impulsive
criticisms of the leading New York city
newspapers are not accepted as final and
satisfactory by the people at large. In
fact, the people at large, while regretting
the appearance of the soldiers, are ready to
sustain and approve the acts of Gen. De
Trobriand, because they believe that blood
shed was prevented thereby.

which he is not entitled. Whenever the
President employs the army Of the United
States to suppress an instruction against
State government he, and not the iHsur-
gents, is clothed with the sole power Of de-
termining when that insurrection has ceased
to exist. The Supreme Court has already
decided the President has the power to de-
eide when an instruction exists, and from
this it follows he has the power to deter
mine when it ceases. When it has ceased
to exist he issues his orders to those di-
rected to suppress it, and troops, after the
reception Of the order, cannot be thus en-
ployed. If the President, in the first in
stance, had the right to issue such orders,
as Gen. Merrill had, and we presume no
one will deny his authority, he has the sole
power of determining when he should re-
woke them. If this were not so the usurp
ers could have gone out one day, in ODE
dience to the proclamation of the Presi-
uSutJ duu SSlLSu luC SAINT OlHOS Oh tAO
next, and if the theory of the White
League Democracy is true the Governor
of the State would have to make another
requisition and the President another
proclamation and new orders before an in
truder could be legally deprived of an
office held in violation of all law. These
orders being IN existence, and the troops
of the United States there in conformity to
the Constitution and laws of the United
States, and no declaration that the insur-
rection had ceased to exist, we say that
they had just as much right to eject per-
sons who attempted to usurp legislative
offices as they had TO eject persons from
executive or judicial offices. The Federal
troops in no manner interfered with the
persons returned as members of the Legis-
lature. The interference was with persons
who were not so returned. This knowl-
edge was obtained from the recognized
Governor of the State, and upon his de-
mand the officer acted. This is the offence
(if offence it be) committed in Louisiana.
While White Leaguers and their allies
condemn it we applaud it. If the insur-
rectiOnistS, and not the President, are to be
the judge of when an instruction has
ceased to exist the White League theory is
correct, but not otherwise. HoW the
President shall suppress an instruction
against State government and reinstate
the lawful officers thereof is not prescribed
by law, but is left to the discretion of the
President. Congress has placed the power
there, and he is only responsible for a will
full and corrupt abuse of it.

"be much more than one half at the pres
cent prices of labor here"
The present price Gas we have seen it
stated) Of pig-iron in this country is about
$50 per ton, and the consumption is repre-
sented to be some three and half million
tons annually-the whole costing $685.
O00,0 If it be true, then, as Prof.
Austed affirms, that pig-iron can be manu-
featured on the line of the James River
canal for $15 per ton, we should in such
case effect an annual saving of $50, 500, 900.
But let US suppose that it should turn out
to be the fact that the pig-iron at the Vir-
ginia furnaces could not be turned out for
less than three fourths the present cost;
we should in that case save $25, 900, 900
per annum. 1t is probably safe to assume
that we could seEd $50, 100000 more
abroad.
The developments in the Kanawha Val
ley in connection with the coal deposits
present something new every year. We
are credibly informed that a company is
now working a new vein of coal between
the Hawks Nest and Meadow river, at
Quinnimont, on New river, which proves
to be superior to the COnnSllsUi!IS Goals for
coking and to the Cumberland coal for
steaming purposes. 1t is rapidly super
seding the Cumberland coal in the facto-
ries at Richmond, while the iron manufac-
turers along the line of the Chesapeake
and Ohio road are discarding the Connells-
willie ond anthracite Goals
There is less waste through the smoke
stack and flues than with the Cumberland
coal; it is entirely free from sulphur; there
is no clinkering, and two tons of it will ESQ
it is claimedD go as far as three tons Of
Cumberland coal.
The bituminous coal of West Virginia
for family purposes is far superior to the
Pennsylvania Goals, and if it could be
readily and cheaply procured would speed
lily supersede the latter in the Atlantic
cities and in the West. There is no good
family bituminous coal now used in these
