Troops at washington.

The concentration Of troops at Washington
has created sensation throughout the country
because, we suppose, Gen. Sherman and Sec
rotary Of War, Cameron, denied any purpose
on the part of the Government to 50 direct
If they bad said frankly that the few compa-
MES were ordered there because it was con-
veuient disposition Of just now much-abused
arm Of the service, rendezvous for men tired
and ashamed of the iguobls performances they
have lately been unnecessarily subjecte to. OF

display at the approaching Inauguration ce,e-

and nobody would have cared But. the APP

a pretext for sensational teleIrans, and tn,
misunderstanding paraGraphists make the most
of it-iutending TO reflect on the good sense OF
the people Of Virginia and Maryland, aud in
flame the easily excited passions Of the iGno-
rant aud prcjulced Of the Northern people by
such absurd, though highly colorcd and incen-
diary communications az the following to The
New York HeraH:
"Iti.not impossible that some Of the hot blood

date who is most in favor with the people OF the

ing Gov. Hayes seems about to be committed
there is no violence, no bitter and angry talk,
no Preparations for resistance The people
are biding their time The Nsmpiis appeal
says: The united prayer of the Southern
people is, May God save the Union, and give
peace to the country They propose no re-
sistance to any iniamy enacted by the usurp-
ers." Even Blaine bears testimony to this
bearing Of the Democratic masses. lie said
too, " that Gov. Hayes aud Gov. Tilden had
both exhibited remarkable prudence and pro-
prety during these las. eventful days, aad to
their bearing he thought was dhe, in great
part, the cessation Of public excitement on the
question" Public excitment has declined but
it was only because the Democratic party de-
termined to resort to no measures Of redress
that are not strictly lawful Peace is due to
the action Of the Democratic party, for that is,
the aggrieved party to this controversy. The
Republicans have no excuse for violence. II
is their candidate who is to be counted IN; tn
Democratic candidate is, in all probability, to
be counted out, aad in view of this hdeous
possibility, the bearing Of the Democratic
masses is simply sublime.
Now, in view ofthese facts, wha. excuse has
President Grant for missing IT ,ops at Wash
ington? In the face Of this condition o!
things, his action is an afront to all civil
authority. Il justly subjects him to the sus-
picion Of intending to iuaugurate President
who has not been legally elected, and even Of
intending to give himself, by force Of arms
/ the third term. whith the people have denied
him.

The Conflict for the Honest Count

The Baltimore Sun Of Wednesday gives the
following general features of the three corner
ed combat:
..The situation in the three States, Louisiana,
south Carolina, and Florida shows rs yet no
decided results. The Louisiana returning
board Yesterday canvassed the returns OF only
six marshes. aud laid over two for future con-
sideration on account of issues in dispute. 1t
appears that there are issues in dispute IN
nearly all the parishes. The democrats yes
terday gained enc point of admission TO the
sessions of the board OF eX-Gov. Wicklllie,
democratic elector, who claimed 1t as night.
4 number of democratic protests against secret
sessions, the refusal 10 admit the counsel, tue
general public, &c, were submitted. Among
the incidental news from New Orleans is the
announcement that Thos. II Handy, former
citizen of Maryland, has been elected sheriff OF
that city, aud that he cannot be " counted
out"
In Florida the democratic managers have
obtained temporary injunction from the Cir
cni. Court nj Tallahassee, restraining the Tow
ernor from canvassing the returns Of the cleo
toral vote or issuing his certificate to any cleo
tor unless by order of the board of canyaSsers.
and mandamus commanding the board to
show cause why they do not proceed at once
with the count. The eases will be finally
heard by the court on Thursday.
In South Carolina the State Supreme Court
is expected 10 act to-day on the report Of the
board of canvosSerS Oh electors and State ofh-
GERS. The court now permits the board TO de-
eide only as 10 Congressman and legislators,
which action will decide the question OF Gov
ernor.

Trustworthy Trio.

The present Indications are that an almost
united sentiment in the North will compel an
honest coun. Of the vote in the three Southern
States When such men as Lyman Trumbull,
William r. Morrison aud Samuel J. Randall
personally supervise the proceedings of such
men as Pitt Kellogg and Packard, the latter
know that however dstasteful honest action
may be that the country riHforce its perform
aace.
There is no man on The continent who has
more constantly won and who more justly de-
derives universal confidence than Lyman Trum-
bull He has been tried by more dangerous
tests than any man of modern times, and has
always passed the ordeal purified by their in
fueuce.
William r. Morrison, The Chairman of the
Committee Of Ways aud Meaus of the House Of
Representatives,, is another who, when as well
known, will earn an equal reputation Cor worth
aud integrity Of character.
Samuel } Randall is well known to all our
readers His heroic defence Of justice has on
deared him u every honest man. heart
The trio have several points Of similarity
All have passed the greater portion Of their
manhood in public life; all are free from the
iaiptes, suspicion Of dishonesty; all have hal
great opportunities to enrich themselves at the
public expense, but ali have remained poor in
the public service.
10 such a crisis their labor is invaluable aad
their declarations carry conviction with them.
