1t seems altogether probably that
the trial of ex-Secretary Belknap will
be postponed until after the Presi-
dental election. The Senate holds
that an impeachment trial cannot
proceed without the presence of the
House. The Demoera ratio members of
the House hold that they cannot be
reelected without their presence in
their districts. On general principles,
we should say, the sooner the Belk-
nap affair is disposed of the better,
and we do not think it at all necessary
that Democratic Congressman should
be reelected.

There Is some prospects of a Turk

Turk has been bullying the Christian
population, and %barricading has COM

number G.0O0, the Jews 5000 and
the Christians the balance, 1t would

that the Turks will get the worst of

n all their calculations the

In all their calculations the Demo-
Gratis have counted upon a united
South in November. They have been
willing to concede South Carolina to
the Republicans, but have claimed
every other Southern State. The
nomination of Hayes and Wheeler,
and the consequent harmony in the
Republican party, has shaken their
ability TO carry the South. 1t is not
considered improbable now that
North Carolina, Mississippi, Alabama
and Louisiana car be carried by the Re
publican party, and it is not impossi-
BILE that Florida and West Virginia
may desert the Democracy.

The centennial anniversary of the
day on which the people of the
United States declared their right to
independence, seems to demand ex-
~ceptionaI observance. The founders
of the government, at its birth and
its feebleness, invoked the blessings
and projection ola Divine Providence
and thirteen colonies and three mill
ions of people have expanded into a
nation of strength and numbers COM
manding n position which then was
asserted and for which fervent pray
ers were offered. II seems fitting that
on the occurrence of the hundredth
anniversary of our existence MS a
nation, grateful acknowledgment be
made to Almighty God for the pro-
lection vouchsafed to our beloved
country. 1, therefore, invite the good
people of the United States on tho
approaching fourth day of July, in
addition to the usual observances with
which they are accustomed to greet
the return of the day, further in such
a manner and at such a time, as in
their respective localities and relig-
ious associations may be most con-
