Martial Law in the South.

OF course the report which comes
from Washington, that the administra.
ton thinks Of declaring martial law in
the Southern States, is nonsense. We
are not living in Mexico, and the Com
gress of 1875 did not pass the Force
bill. TO attempt to interfere with fed
eral arms and martial law, in the South
ern elections would be for the republi-
cans to give up the struggle. They
would excite storm of alarm and in :
dignalion in the North which would
sweep the Northern States against
them.
The truth is the republican party does
not deserve to carry any Southern State
unless it be North Carolina, where the
parties are very equally matched, and
where the republicans are as respectas
bile and as certain TO give the State a
good government as the democrats
They might have carried number of
the other States ifthey had paid only a
little attention to good government
down there if it had not been so long
the policy at Washington to encourage
and support with the federal patronage
set.of graceless and INSCRIPTIONS politi-
cal gamblers and Adventures, to the
exclusion of honorable and honest men,
who might easily have been brought
into the republican party by the use of
a little wisdom and good management.
That the South is to-day a unit, or very
nearly so. for the democratic party is
the fault of republican Encouragement
at Washington. Every man, no mat
ter whether he is republican or demo.
erat, who desires to see the Southern
States honestly ruled must wish that
they shall he carried this fall by the
democTats.-Ne 10 York Herald.

Indiana.

AS everybody would like to know
what the Indiana Democrats think as
to the prospects of their carrying the
State on the 10th of October, and also
as to the effects of the grand demon

the following aragraphs from the In

Blue7 will doubtless produce another
frantic death strug sic, but it will be in
vain. The death stroke is doing its
work, aud Radical rottenness will be
buried with the bloody shirt wrapped
around it Oh the 10th of October
"We have seen the sight by which
he Radical party expected to carry
the State of1ndiana at the October cleo
ton. The show has come and gone
We cannot longer dignity it by calling
it soldiers re union. 1t was bitter
partisan gathering under false name
AS soldiers Reunion it was a fraud,
as Radical gathering it was a failure.
With any sort Of industry the Democ-
racy could have probably made bet

night was two thirds as large as the

one at night. There are larger gather-

South, where cattle are raised mostly
for beef and hides.
Judge Grant was in Little Rock,

court. One morning he saw farmer
with a SLOUGH hat and a genuine but
ternut suit, trying to sell COW in the
market there, 1t was large, long-horn

man that the COW would give four
quarts a day, if fed well.
Up stepped the judge. "What do
ask for the COW %
"About thirty dollars. She'll give
i've quarts of milk if you feed her WE'LL
replied the planter, and he proceeded
to describe her good qualities.
Said the judge, 81 have COWS on nv
farm, not more than half as big as your
COW, which give twenty to twenty-five
quarts of milk day"
The planter eyed the Judge sharply
for a moment as if trying to remember
whether he had ever seen him before or
not, and then asked:
