Political GOSSIP.

The Vicksburg Herald notices that though
General Sheridan is president Of the military
court which still has Babcock's innocence
or guilt under consideration, he was one of
the very first to telegraph his congratula-
tions upon the acquittal of the toll.gate
keeper to the White House.
It would seem from recent developments
that the President is his brothers. keeper.
Judge Taft must be man of scrupulons
integrity to gain confidence from the people
in an Office that Belknap has 30 defiled.
The hope of the country says the Indian
apolis Journal, rests with the Republican
party as much to-day as ever. That hope
is very like the delusive phantom.
The election in New Hampshire takes
place to-day. Both parties are making
strenuous efforts. The Republicans are
fighting in the face of the most damaging
evidence as to their party's integrity while
the Democrats are fighting efectually with
the weapons that their enemies have put In
their hands.
In the inarmities Of age Alexander H
Stephens, Of Georgia, is said to be as great
intellectually as he was in the prime o.
health.

THERE ARE FOUR separate raids organi-
zed against the peoples money in cur neigh
boring State, Pennsylvania, in the lower
branch of its Legislature. First, there is
q bill for $50, 900 to pay for tents, transpcr-
tion and rent of ground for the accommo-
dation of our noble army Of the immortal
National Guard at the Centennial. Next
there is a bill to provide for the proper re-
presentation of the mineral resources of the
State, for which $4,000 is demanded. Then
there is bill appropriating $4,000 to pro-
vide for an educational display, and last
though not least, a bill appropriating $780,
600 for the erection of a building on the
grounds of the Exposition for tho use of the
people of the State, one room on the second
floor of the building to be fitted up and fur
nished for the exclusive use of the Govern
or, heads Of departments and members OF

The Last Days Of Ponpeii.
This was part Of a conversation between
two Roman politicians eighteen hundred
years ago. Were we to alter the names to
Belknap, Williams, Babcock, or Shepherd,
and insert American for Roman, it would
be quite in place in Washington, or al
most any Of the large cities of to-day. 1t
thus appears tha. the world has changed
but little, if at all. Living beyond ones
salary or income, was then as now, sure
road to dishonesty. The corruption which
is now SO all pervading at Washington, is
the natural result of the extravaganza Of
living, and the aping Of foreign manners
by the Republican court of President
Grant. 1t could not have existed under
the regime Of such man as Andrew John.
