Resignation Of Governor Anss.-Whst tie
Press Says.

st. Louis Republican,. (DemOcrat.)
So a shameful retreat fttingly
terminates shameful career.
Henreforth Ames is absent. As
long as grass grows and water runs
no will be bitterly remembered by
those he might have done 80 much
to aid and encourage, and whom he
did so much to irritate and Cypress.
We congratulate the people of
Mississippi upon tho permanent OK
tinctIon of the Amus dynasty. Their
hard experience ought to teach
them many valuable lessons and
these lessons will produce results
which may more than compensate
for the humiliation and the suffer-
ing of the last ten years.
st. Louis GIol,c-Democrat. (Republican.)
Governor Ames, Of Mississippi,
made a complete backdown yestcr-
day. He sent u Communication to
the Senate, agreeing 10 resign if the
articles of impeachment against HIM
were withdrawn. His proposition
was accepted, and We presume Mr..
Ames is by this time on his way
home to Massachusetts. Az q states
man be has not been a success.
Chicago Times, Independently
The sudden resignation Of Mr..
Benjamin F.. Buffers son-in-law,
who has been acting as Governor
OF Mississippi, amounts TO a confess
sion that the charges of official mall
feasance, upon which he has been
impeached, are true charges He has
escaped removal from Office upon i'm
parchment by confessing his guilt
and removing himself. The differ
once in legal point Of view is very
slight, while in the mora! aspect of
the ease there ia no difference at all
Now let Adclhert Amos retire from
politics, with PendIeton, Bclknap,
aad the rest, to his own place.

The Taxation 1ilden Dia Not Reduce.

The claim has been made in behalf OF
Governor CTilden that he had effected a
great reduction in the taxation of the
state of New York during his term rs
Governor. The New York Evening
| Post, which has been Very friendly ito
Governor Tildep, .disposes of that claim
in a careful review of the course OF the
state debt and taXation.1 rF5T ET3r7
The Post, IN the course of its review
shows that, although the debt of the state
was very heavy, large, appropriations for
sectarian charges were made i'm the years
1865, 1870, and 1877, when the Democrats
had full control; that the sinking funds
set apart for the payment of the debt
were depleted for. other purposes; that
under the administration Of Gov. Dix
these funds had been fully restored and
the reqairements-of. the debt completely
met that ~Oomptroller Hopkins an
nOunced in his report for 1875 that a. tax
of two mills would provide the means
to pay all the bounty debt on its MATURE
ty, i'm April, 1876, and that this was so
nearly exact that the fax to finish the
payment of this. debt is this year only
one third of a mill.n 1t asserts that the
tax to meet the current expenditures OF
the government is precisely the same
this year as last year; that there fhas
been no saving in expense, and that the
people of New York pay so much less IN
taxes because, the debt having been
wiped out. they .pay0Lso much less to
meet its demands.
The Post says: 'sEhe tax for 1875, cal
culated on the valuation of 1874, and lev
led on the valuation of 1876, produced a
surplus of 81, 1SO,S33 81, which had only
to be applied to the reduction OF the
taxes of 1876. To the existence of this
surplus and to the payment OF the bounty
debt the reduction of our taxes this year
is principally dhe." Friendly as it has
been, and is, Ito Governor Tilden, the
Post adds: at is not just to give to
Governor TildeD the credit for a large
reduction with which he has directly
nothing to do"
The whole matter of the reduction of
taxation i'm the state of New York is
thus summarized: In 1875, over $4,000
600 of taxes were levied to meet the re-
ouirements of the public debt. In 1876,
only 100000 in taxes are needed to meet
the public debt requirements, the debt
having been practically paid of. The
reduction of taxes this year comes from,
this reduction of debt. This great re-
duction of the debt was accomplished
under a Republican administration,
which, by its fidelity, provided for over
$l9,O00,000 in four years.

Facing Death--A Narrow Escape.

One Of the narrowest escapes from
death probably ever witnessed was that
of Henry Fuller of Waterford on the
Rensselaer, and Saratoga railroad, at
Cohoes, as the eight o'clock train was
entering that city on Thursday evening
of last week. The Albany Argus says
Fuller was about to depart for Water
ford by way of the Rensselaer, and Sar.
atoga bridge. As he was about entering
the bridge at the Cohoes side the train
entered ON the other. When about
three feet from the end Of the bridge
his foot caught in frog, and he could
not by combined efforts of muscle and
activity release himself. The train APP
preached within hundred feet of him,
and instant death seemed to stare him
in the face, when with one superhuman
effort he drew his foot out of his boot
and got out of the way just as the train
flashed by. The boot was ground to
atoms, and Fuller wouldin all likelihood
have been in the same way were he
twenty seconds later in his boots.

A Word for Bridget.

The plain truth of the matter is that
the whole native population of the
United States has almost suddenly and
with one accord refused to perform for
hire any of the services usually called
mental or indoor. The men have found
other more productive fields of industry,
and the women. under the influence of
the prevailing theory of life, have re-
solved to accept any employment at any
wages sooner than to do other peoples
homework. The result has been de-
mand for trained servants which the
whole Europesn continent could not sup
ply if it would, and which has proved
so intense that it has drawn the peasant
ry out of the fields en- masse from the
only European country in which the
peasantry was sufficiently poor to be
tempted, and spoke or understood the
American language. No such phenom-
enon has ever been witnessed before.
No country before has ever refused to do
its own chores, and called in an army of
foreigners for that purpose. To COM
plain bitterly of their want of skill is,
therefore, under the circumstances, al
most puerile, from an economical point
of view while to any one who looks at
the matter as a moralist, it is hard tc
see why Bridget, doing the work badly
in the kitchen, is any more contempt
ible object than the American sewing
girl killing herself in garnet at SO 6
week, out of devotion to the principle O
equality.-Nation.
