Current Note 8,

The house of representatives did its duty
by Louisiana in passing the two resolutions
relative to the situation in that state. Under
any other circumstances the recognition OF
Kellogg as governor would have been indie
fensible. 1t is assented to now by great
many Republicans not because it is right in
the abstract, but because any other course
would throw everything into confusion and
invalidate all that has been done in the last
two years.-Boston Adcertiser.
Seven confederate officers will sit in the
next senate of the United States. This is
the result of partial and preliminary Dem
ocratc victory. A complete Democratic TIL
umph would literally seat the Richmond
congress in the capitol at Washington.-Phit-
ad elphia Press.
The method of settling the Louisiana diff
Guilty proposed in the resolutions adopted in
the House Of Representatives, is in the ma
ture of compromise, but it seems to be the
most practicable way out of it, and it is to
be hoped that it will be accepted in good
faith by the people of the state. 1t really
depends upon them whether there shall be
any end of the trouble. The reorganization
of the House so as to reinstate the Conser-
vative majority will be a mere act of justice
and decency, and no doubt the supporters of
Kellogg will Le willing to accept it, provided
the recommendation of the other resolution
is needed and the Legislature make no at
tempt to interfere with him. To attempt, at
this late day, to get rid of him would but re-
new the trouble. 1t will be impossible to oust
him by judicial process on the ground that he
was not legally elected.-Boston Globe.
In his answers to questions put by Lords
of Plantations, 1911, Sir William Berkley
thanks God there are no free schools or print
ing in Virginia, aud hopes "there will not be
these hundred years. .''-VirginiG Pap. b. Is
D. 4. This idea was stolen bodily from Hen
ry A. Wise, who gave utterance to it about
1920 Washington Star.
The Hon. w. G. Brownlow, in the saluta-
tory of his new paper, makes this sanguine
prediction: "Nor do 1 read the signs of the
times as those who predict that the country
is to be afflicted with the success of the DEM
ocratic party in the Presiden 'ial election OF
1875. On the contrary the indications point
to the defeat of the party in the great ma
tional contest. And here predict that the
great party which has controlled the national
government for fifteen years will not only
have new lease of power in 1876, but the
day is not far distant when it will redeem and
regenerate Tennessee"
1t might as well be remembered that the
Georgia state treasurer who is short one mil
lion dollars in his accounts is neither Re-
publican nor a carpet-bagger.
The force bill under the bullying leadership
of Butler was carried through the house by a
majority vote at midnight Saturday. The
best Republicans, thirty eight in number, in
cluding the three Republican Congressmen
from Connecticut, voted against the measure.
The bill is ill-advised and dangerous, and as
a party measure it is shortsighted if not sui
dal.-Harttord Courdnt.

NORTH Carolina seems to have taken gi-
gantic stride backward. Mr.. j. W. Thorne,
one of the members of her legislature, has
been expelled on the ground that he does not
believe in the existence of God. Mr..
Thorne belongs to the sect known as Progress
sive Friends, and, although not holding the
Orthodox conception of the Almighty, is not
an Atheist. He was expelled under provis-
sion of the state constitution which disqual-
ifies a citizen from holding Office who dis
believes in the existence of God, but it does
not appear that the constitution defines the
nature of the Deity or requires belief in the
Othodox conception. Mr.. Thorne is Re-
publican, which fact may account for his ex-
pulsion. Democrats are very religious.

In the course of the debate in the House
Monday night Congressman Hale of this state
very neatly scored one against Gen. Butler.
The Massachusetts, representative wished to
largely increase the facilities of the National
Asylum in the District. Mr.. Hale opposed
the increase and Mr.. Butler said the
committee on appropriations was liberal
enough in recommendations fol- the purchase
of paintings, but was not so liberal toward
the soldiers. Mr.. Hale quietly replied that
the committee in making recommendations
for the purchase of pictures had acted under
direction of the House, expressed in a resolu-
ton introduced by Butler himself Upon this
Gen. Butler subsidized, not abashed of course
but very angry.

THE Advertiser thinks the partial Demo-
cratic victory in this city is attributable to
Mr.. Hamlin's election to the Senate, which
recalls Mr.. Dicks fondness for introducing
King Charles head into his discourse. While
Mr.. Hamlin was by no means the choice Of
Portland Republicans, our city election was
about as much affected by the senatorial con-
test as by the transit Of Venus. What with
railroads, Galt's Wharf, Street Commissioner,
Marshal, and especially Rum, we are not
driven to seek remote or general reasons for
Mondays confusion. The Republican vote
of this year is larger than that of last, and
the hordes who devastated Wards 2 and 4
probably never heard that there was such a
man as Mr.. Hamlin.

IT is curious fact that the suspensions of
the rules by which the Louisiana resolutions
were brought before the House was due to
Alexander Fl. Stephens, late Vice President
of the confederacy. He was the only Demo-
crat who voted with the III Republicans. If
his vote had been cast with the IS Democrats
it would have defeated the two-thirds MAORI
ty and thus prevented the passage Of the
Louisiana resolutions.

SENATOR Morrill, of Vermont has at last
said something in the Senate which by ex-
treme favoritsm may be construed as funny.
He beseeched the Senate not to leave the
Government financially on the "ragged edge
of despair" Isn't this expression getting to
be little nauseous? 1t is bad enough to
have two columns of Beecher trial telegraphed
and when the Senate falls to talking Brook
lynese it is ''piling on the agony beyond en-
durance"

BELGIUM courts seem to have flavor of
the wild and romantic West about them. At
Mons recently the prosecuting attorney made
some remarks which excited the ire of the
accused, and outraged Innocence dew a re-
volver and pointed it at the lawyer, who
dropped under the table, crawled along the
floor and wriggled out of the door. The ac.
cused then pointed the revolver in deliberate
succession toward all the ether functionaries
of Justice, and they left by devious ways.
Then he left, and has not been seen since.
The scene certainly has all the local coloring
of the Colorado court room.

A DISPATCH to the Cincinnati Z

A DISPATCH to the Cincinnati En-
qnirer, from Washington, announces
that the attOrney-generaI has been
making private investigation into the
condition of affairs in the United States
marshsrs office of the western district
Of Arkansas. The investigation is near
ly completed. 1t practically covers the
same facts which were impeIfectly ex-
amined by an investigating committee
Of the last congress. The expenditures
Of this Office have been enormously
large, and it is thought that a considerable
portion Of the money has been spent for
illegal witness fees and mileage. The
expenses of the marshal's office for the
last six months have been eighty-one
thousand five hundred and twelve dol
Lars. Ali Of which is good campaign
information for '76.

the Radical party since 1865, we are pre-
pared TO prove every figure by the United
States census returns in our possession;
and il il we'll known TO every one
at ali cOnversant with Mississippi
politics, that at least two colored votes
are generally polled for the Democratic
ticket for every white vote given TO the
Radicals, the result Of the election next
November cannot he doubtful il the
State convention that meets August Sd
shall give us sound platform, and our
people make up their minds to win. In
this connection we wish to call particu-
lar attention to the fact that the white
counties afford the great field for the
canvassers in the coming campaign.
Those counties are far behind on their
white registration, and have never
pOlled even the number Of whites that
they have registered. II the people Of
these counties will all register and turn
out to the polls, we will not only elect
our candidate for state treasurer next
November, and majority in the legis-
lature, but will carry almost every con-
gressional district in the common
wealth. In the black counties we ex-
pect to do our utmost, for here contest,
II waged at all, necessarily calls
fer q hard and energetic fights
but in the white counties the lack
of strong opposition has always had
dsmOtalizing effect upon the whites,
and they have never exerted themselves
to bring out a full vote, and IN some
cases have suffered defeat because Of re-
lying more upon registering than voting.
In the last Presidential election only
forty-seven thousand votes were cast for
Greeley, while Grant received eighty
one thousand. From these figures it
will be seen that the blacks polled only
eight votes less than their entire num-
Der Of voters in the State, while the
Democrats polled nearly forty thousand
less than their vote. These figures are
certainly encouraging. They should in
spire the Democrats with confidence.
With prudent platform aud a vigorous
canvass, we believe Mississippi can be
redeemed from the rule of the plumber
ers. The whole country will watch the
result with eager anxiety. On Tuesday
next the Democratic State convention
will be held at Jackson. Much depends
upon the action Of this body. II wise
counsel prevails, victory is assured.

THE POLITICAL OUTLOOK IL mis-
sISslPPI.

SISslPPI.
The Mississippi elections are attract
ing much attention. The State has been
considered Radical by an overwhelming
majority. This belief has prevented any
regular, aggressive organization of the
Democrats snd Conservatives. But this
feeling OF despair has given place to a
confident belief that the State can be re-
deemed, and the Democrats and Con-
servatives are working with a zeal
worthy Of success. 1t is evident that
the contest will be lively and exciting.
Its proposed to make thorough cam
vass, and thus bring out the white vo-
ters, many Of whom heretofore did not
even vote, believing success impossible.
We give below the voting population of
Mississippi, taken from the last census:

The Aberdeen Examiner maintains
that the white voters of the State are
greater than blacks. 1t shows that in
some Of the white counties of Missis-
sippi hardly any effort was made to
enumerate the people, while it is claimed
that in certain black counties the same
negroes were frequently counted as
often as met, and yet the census Of the
State, despite all Of the artful manipu-
latiOn that could be worked into the re-
port, presents the total given in the
above figures. The Examiner says:
