A Straight Ticket.
GInx;nn DiapaAnl. L

The Courier. Journal in the course of an
editorial on tho approaching Presidential CON-
test, says:
"The Democratic party should this year
run a straight ticket and we shall contend for
that"
We heartily indorse this declaration. The
Democratic party claims to be party of prin-
ciple, and it's contests should be waged for the
establishment Of its fundamental doctrines in
the administration of the Government. IT.
candidates for Office should therefore be men
of conscientious convictions. They should
cherish we'll defined political faith. The
party would be useless organization were it
70 abandon principle and resort 10 mere ex-
pediencies for the acquisition of power.
We have always held, therefore, that Demo-
cratic nominations for Office should be con-
fsrred upon Democrats in spirit no less than
name. We can not safely and wisely go out
side Of the party for Presidential ticket this
year. Our standard bearer, while thorough
" imbued with broad, national spirit. must
be Democrats grounded ia the faith that gave
life and vigor and glory to the stasesmanship
of Jefferson and Jackson and Silas Wright.
Hence, in the language Of the Courier Journal,
We repeat: "The Democratic party should
this year run straight ticket, and we shall
contend for that"

FATAL ACCIDENT.
A COlOred Child Burned to Death.

A colored woman named Lizzie Hunter, re-
siding on Erato, between Claiborne and Will
low streets, left her domicile about 8 o'clock
Wednesday morning on an errand, and left
her daughter, child five years old, named
Frances, in the room. Shortly after her de-
parture the ne ghbors in the vicinity were at
tracted to the house by the loud cries of the
unfortunate child, and together with several
citizens who were passing by at the time,
rushed into the house and found the child
lying on the floor of the room almost burned
to crisp.
The fire was burning in the CRATE, and it is
presumed that the girl must have been play
ing with the fire when her clothes became ig-
nited and she fell to the ground fatally
burned. Dr.. Petit was Immediately sum-
moned and did all in his power to save her
life, but without avail. Shs fingered until
about noon, Wednesday, when shs breathed
her last. Coroner Chastant held an inquest,
and the jury rendered verdict of accidental
death.

The Diplomatic Appropriation bill which
has passed the House, and which is not likely
to pass the Senate, proposes, by cutting down
salaries and dispensing with all purely orna-
mental consulates, to reduce the cost of our
foreign relations service about one-third, or
nearly half q million annually. Through this
and other reductions. the Democrats have
been aiming to effect an aggregate re.rsnch-
ment of $1,000, 900 annually in the expenses
Of the government The Republicans, how
ever, are venturing 10 take issue on this ques.
of economy.
Their real animus is aversion to measures
originating with the Democrats, but their
ostensible argument in regard to the diploma
tic and consular service is that the dignity Of
the nation forbids any cutting down. When
the proposition was discussed in the House,
IS it was very thoroughly, its feasibility aud
wisdom we're clearly shown, the State CORES
pondence was overhsuled to see what our
public servants abroad were really doing, and
the utter uselessness and vanity of some of
the Offices we're so clearly exhibited that this
branch of the public service became . subject
Of much ridicule and sarcasm.-Ga lueston

SENATOR SPENCER.
The Investigation at Washington

We were entertained Wednesday morning
by ]. P. Southworth, Esq, United States
Commissioner, with the details of his testimo-
ny given. lately in the celebrated Spencer
case before Congress.
Mr.. Southworth has just returned from
Washington, whittier he was summoned to
testify before the committee investigating the
case of Geo. E. Spencer, Senator from Ala
bama.
Mr.. Southworth states that our Associated
Press dispatches have given but feeble out
line Of what was shown before the committee.
He says that the witness, J. ]. Moulton, who
is nav Deputy Collector of Internal Revenue
in Alabama, contradicted in toto his entire ev-
idence as taken before the committee of the
State Legislature.
He showed that Spencer and his man
Friday" one J. ]. Zine, had deposited
in bond, about November %, over $13, 600,
and that between that time and the day of the
election, December 3, it was discussed in
sums of $50 and SIS to members of the
Legislature
The checks were produced by the tellers Of
the banks, with Spencer's and Illness indorse-
ment.
Mr.. Southworth states that the evidence
was almost direct as to the corruption OF
Spencer.

A POw-WOw Over the Baton Rouge
Affair.

Marshal Packard's Office was overrun We'd
nesday morning by Burch and his followers,
who were lounging around the office and hall
way of the Custom-House. They did q good
deal Of talking, and seemed to know all about
affairs in Baton Rouge. Some of them en-
tered the Marshars private Office and re-
NAMED there for considerable length of
time, discussing matters and petting their
heads together.
The result of the interview is not known,
but, at all events. they talked great deal,
and before they lett became very boiste-
rous.
It is probable an attempt will be made to
get up another howl over the Davis affair.

do so to-day or during the week.

CROOKED NOTES.
Down at the Granite Building.

The spectacular drama going on in the
crooked whisky business drew q full house
on Wednesday morning, the lobby being
jammed with an eager lot of visitors. After
the opening of the court, j. D. Rouse, ESQ.,,
said that the minutes Of the previous day in.
correctly stated that John McWhorter had
entered plea Of "not guilty" He desired
that the mistake of the clerk might be reme-
died, and asked to have the minutes COR
rected. Judge Woods so ordered.
Mr.. Rouse then stated that there were .
humber present in the courtroom awaiting an
opportunity to file their pleas, when the Dis
trict Attorney said he was ready to hear from
them. Thereupon, Messrs. Jos. P. Hornor
and Rouse. representing number of those
indicted, filed special plea to the indict-
ment.
The plea sets forth that two of the Grand
Jury were incompetent; that H. B. Stevens
had aided and abetted the late instruction
of the Southern States in that he was mem
Der of the Crescent Regiment, G. s. A., and
further, that Austin Roundtree, another grand
jnryman, was member OF the Orleans Light
Horse, the body guard Of the late Gen. Leon
dias Polk. For these reasons the defendants
asked that the indictments be quashed.
Another start has been given to the crooked
by the arrival here of the Assistant Attorney
General of the United States, Mr.. Blair, who
reached here yesterday. Whether his mis-.
sion here is for the purpose of aiding in the
prosecution of the whisky cases or not is I'M.
known, but this visit seems somewhat unu.
sual.
Th&e is dispute now going on between
the attorneys OF those indicted under the con-
spiracy clause and the Internal Revenus
agents, relative to the books of distilleries
already seized.
Gen. Sheldon has been anxious to obtain
possession of the books of Ferenbach, but
the special agents hesitate about turning
them over.
The Grand Jury were given another vaca.
ton after the roll had been called, and from
these repeated recesses, it is evident the work
is nearly over.

eight per cent levee bonds.
After session of two hours duration the
doors were opened, and it was announced
that the board had decided to fund the levse
eight per cent bonds of the issue passed
upon by the Supreme Court.
The board had before them applications for
the funding of over a million dollars OF
bonds. Over 5000. 900 were passed.
The resignation of Mr.. Albert Baldwin as q
member of the board was received and &c
cepted, and resolution of thanks for ser
vices rendered was adopted.
The board then adjourned to meet at -
o'clock today, when it is probable that the

pity the Supreme Court. With that peculiarly
remarkable persistence for which that tribu-
nal is noted, they actually refused to take
Beckwith's views on the Enforcement act, and
thus showed their ignorance of law. Chief
Justice Waite must be investigated, and that,

The hardest thing the Republicans have to
say against Beknap is that he was Demo-

ican thieves and bride takers were once DEM
ocrats, but Republican corruption was too

level Of their new found faith. Belknap aoas

tried to prevent them from spending their

to charge them double prices for every thing

The same clap-trap which was employed in
eleciing Grant is reproduced by the Republic
can journals to shield the rascally officials
who are now in danger of punishment, and to
re-elect another incompetent and dishonest
administration. Their cue is to whine
about calumny and de.raction as often as q
theft is discovered, and to appeal to the SYM
pathies of such of their readers as are stupid
enough to take in whatever is written in be-
half Of q member of the party. Here is a
sample of the campaign whine-the same
drivel that was used SO effectively in 1872:
"It is easy to see that the coming summer
and fall will witness an era of detractioc and
calumny in this country, such IS never was
witnessed by the American citizen. 1t has
been deliberately and systematically arranged

Of securing political victory" = Courier
