CHICAGO, Dec. 13.--The Iri6ssue's
Washington special says: The con-
viction is daily growing stronger
that the Presidential difficulties can
be adjusted between thetwo Houses.
One prominent Democrat, who is
quite near to 7ilden says, whosoever
suggests possibility Of war should be
imprisoned for high treason. An.
other Democrat said he would rather
submit to peaceable fraud than have
he public peace disturbed.
Ben. Hills peace speech in the
Democratic caucus illustrates the
Southern t mper on this question.
Unfortunately only fragments of
that speech are made public. The
defeat of Edmund's constitutional
amendment and the vote thereon
shows that the Democrats are not
willing to accept the Supreme
Court as arbitrator in the pre-
sent dispute, preferring to risk a
judicial decision of the House, tax
ing it out of the hands of the Sen
ate.
New York, Dec. 12.-Herald S
Columbia special 1t is anticipated
the Democratic Senators will with
draw tomorrow and form at least q
quorum of the Senate, by the ad-
mission of three contestants and Sc
cession Of one or two Republicans
who will come to them. The result
of this will be the immediate inau-
guration of Wade Hampton as Gov
ernor, the election Of a U. S. Sen
ator and establishment of an en-
tirely separate State Governmer ).
Speaker Wallace, of the Democratic
House, issued pay certificates for
500 to each of the members of the
body, which were all promptly
cashed by the Carolina National
Bank. The whole amount paid was
81, 100. This had a depressing effect
on the negro members of the Mac
key House, who have no prospect
of getting their pay, and is an as
surance that the Hampton govern
ment will be sustained by the
money power and property holders
of the State.

i.ably called, are forming their opinions
as to what religion amounts to, and be-
cause it shows itself as only matter
of opinion and settles itself there.
they have no opinion of it and keep
away from it; not because their fathers
did. nor tina. they have in any way in
Eeri,e,i this style of looking at things;
but because they use common sense in
forming their ideas. And this is the
timber that the churches need to build
themselves MP with. and they will never
reach i. hy religious opinions. Com

SONS all the time. Our opinion is tina.

The Geographic reports concerning
President Grants alleged misappro-
priation Of money belonging to the
secret service fund, are not so free
from suspicion that we need to exhibit
any indecent haste to denounce him.
In few days we shall have fuller and
further developments. If the facts
are as stated it will be the duty of the
Democratic House of Representatives
to present articles Of impeachment
against him. If this be done We shall
not hesitate to advise the Republican
party to unload him. But if the
Democrats who are running drag nets
over his administration, and yelling
with joy a. the faintes: indication of a
"catch," cannot find enough material
in all these alleged developments to
impeach him, We shall not find it nee
essary to get up any large amount OF
excitement about the matter.

The great hullaboloo which the De-
mocracy are raising just now over the
pretended discovery of President Grants
corrupt use of public money amounts to
simply this. according to the New York
Times: He simply ordered paid, through
the Department of Justice. out of the
Secret Service Fund, $4,000 for three
or four years work of John j. Daven-
port and others for a correct registration
of the voters of New York city, for the
purpose of detecting and furnishing
election frauds in tina. city. Only this
and nothing more.

PRESIDENT GRANT is not the first Off
cial of our Government charged with
making a wrong use Of the Secret Serv-
ice Fund. About 1916 Representative
Charles J. lngersoll. of Pennsylvania,
made the grave charge in the House Of
Representatives that Daniel Webster,
while Secretary of State under Presi-
dent Tyler, had appropriated nearly all
the Secret Service Fund to his own use.
A Committee of the House was APP
pointed to investigate the charge. Much
time was spent in the investigation, but
the Committee finally made their report.
which completely e1onerated Mr.. Web
ster who. at that time. was again Sen
ator. Rising to his feet, after the re-
port had been made public. MIR. Web
ster made a short speech, the conclu-
sion OF which is as follows: "Sir, l
leave the author Of these base and ma
lignant charges where he is; | leave him
in the wors. company l know OF in the
world; leave him with himself" Mr.
Ingersoll retired to private life with the
close of that Congressional term in
1877. In attacking Webster's character
he broke himself. lie never recovered
public confidence ct all after this vain
assault upon the integrity Of Daniel
Webster.
