new system OF conducting politics hs
been developed in Alabama, which is *
original with the man Spencer, represent
ing the above named state in the United
States Senate, that it is worthy of beipa
called the spencerian System. George E.
Spencer was elected by the Legislature Ct
Alabama, to represent that State in the .,
=. Senate. So for as this goes, may appear
all right.
But how he obtained his election is q
question Of enquiry that throws a LIGHT
upon the matter which shows Mr.. Spencer
to be thoroughly original, at the same time
rascally and fraudulent in this system of
obtaining an election. At the time that he
took his seat, it was contested, but the Re.
publicans being in the ascendaucy in the
Senate, over rode the honest work of the
Democrats, and allowed him to take his
seat.
A Joint Committee of the General AS.
sembly Of Alabama to investi.
gate the circumstances attending the
election Of Senator Spencer, to a seat in
Congress, was appointed A portion of
the evidence taken by this Committee ha,
been received in, Washington and 1t is very

If he ever had any.
spencer had friend in Mobile, at the
time Of his pretended election, whose name
was John ]. Moulton, and he was post
master in that city. Mr., Moulton testi6es
to having given him number of the Lee-
lslators money at the suggestion Of spsn-
Ger.
Mr.. Moulton repeatedly did this, taking
it from funds actually belonging to the
United States Government, and in his nos.
session, by virtue Of his position as Post
master. He was promised in return for
this an important and valuable Office under
the United States Government. But Nh,
Moulton fell behind in his accounts.
Spencer did not come to his rescue, and
when an agent Of the Post Office Depart
'nent went to him by the middle Of July
for settlement of bis accounts, he drew
on Spencer by telegraph for $4,000; spen-
Ger replied, II ain out of money!" and
Mrs. Moulton, wife Of the deficient Post
master, had to make up the amount out of
her own private account. ua.4 ..l Il

gentleman that one Of the members sf

shirt to the political breeze. 1t is Morton
out and out, and will have about the same
weight as Morton's reputation for truth

Of the same month.
The suggestion that the delegates to the

The Des Moines State Registsr says, Mr..
Harlan withdrew from the Iowa Senator
ial canvass, on the assurance of the editors
Of 80 newspapers that they would support
him for Senator Allison's seat two years
hence. The latter denies having taken
any part in securing Gov, Kirkwood's
nomination.
The list Of possible candidates for Gov.
ernor on the Republican side in Connecti-
cut includes the following names: Abijah
Catlin, ex-Speaker Amos 8. Treat, Fred
eric j. Kingsbury, P. T. Barnum, ex-
Lieut.. Governor Benjamin Douglass. Rob-
bins Battell. John T. Rockwell, and the
Rev. joseph Cummings, D. D., ex-Presi-

TIE New York Tribune of Yesterday in
m editorial headed Little States to the
Front" pays the following compliment tc
the small States Of the union, including
Delaware and its worthy Senator Thoma.
F. Bayard There is no State in tie
Union so small or ubimportant that it may
not have candidate, or perhaps two, for
thePresidency or Vice Presidency. There's
no law, written or unwritten, to hinder
any State from cherishing the hope that
the highest Offices in the nation may be
filled by her favorate sons. Here, for in
stance, is Delaw are, with candidate for
the Democratic nomination for President in
rhe person of Senator Bayard, and the party
might go further and fare very much worse.
1t is encouraging to see tho small States
coming to the front with their candidates.
just as clipper and hopeful as though they
were keystones and all that sort of thing.
It indicates belief, in the small States at
any rate, that caedidatss for President and
Vics-President may be nominated on their
merits. and not on account Of the number
Of electoral votea they can carry. 1t may
be a delusion,bu it is pleasing one. Any
ons Of the gentlemen named would fill the
Presidential Office better than-but corn.

step up then and act as though they

Mr.. CHARLIE NORDHOFF's letters from
the South last summer 10 tho Herald, have
been revised and reproduced in book form
by the Appletons. Mr.. Nordhoff addresses
them to the President in pungent little
little dedication, assuming that if he had
been able to give as much attention to af:
fairs At the South in lS74-6 as he did in
1865, there can be no doubt that his
Southern policy wsuld have been very
different. Mr.. Nordhoff is one Of our
most conscientious and capable observers.
He wrote only what he honestly believed,
and tho conclusions with which he en-
riches the present volume, drawn from the
whole scope Of his observations in the
Cotton states, have political significance
which both parties but especially the Re-
publicans, would find it pre- titsblet to study.
Some Of these conclusions are, that there
is not in any Of the States, any desire for
a new war, or any hostility to tho Union;
that Southern Republicans are unreason.
able in complaining that the whites do not
yet, rej'ice over their defeat, and that they
still admire their own leaders; that the
ostracam Of Northern men means the
ostraeism Of corrupt men, and those who
make common political cause with them;
that there is intimidation On both
sides; that there are no Wrongs
now in the South. which the
interference Of the Federal Government
can correct; that those States which have
been under Republican control have been
'hamefully mismanaged, while Georgia,
which has been ruled by Democrats, has
'een we'll managed; that in Georgia the
negroes own more real estate, and paw
more taxes, on more property, than in any
ther Southern State; that general man
lood suffrage is danger to any commu-
'ity, where the entire body of ignorance
nd poverty has been massed by adroj+
on one aide, and that, when
FEDERAL interference at the South ceasep,
he negro vote will fall off from natural |
auses. So says the New York Tribune,
