THE NEW LEGISLATURE.

The election returns indicate that the electors
have chosen in very many if not in most instances
representatives understood to be in opposition to
government; if, however, that may amount to
any thing very ineligible. seeiEg that the only
measures to which government is known to be
committed are the Treaty which is now beyond
legislative control, and the loan for the negotia-
ton of which a law was passed at the last session
Of the Legislature, but which has not been ne
gotiated and perhaps is impossible TO effect.
Nevertheless, the fact of an opposition majority
in the House may yet be discovered to have sig
nificance, if 1t shall appear that these members
are disposed to unite in taking the opposite side
in any bills brought forward by the government.
1t is understood in England that " Her Maj
esty's opposition - perform an essential and very
useful part in the legislative work. An intelli-
gent opposition is no doubt seryiceable to any
government; but if it forms a majority of the
representatives, and remains unconvinced of the
~propriety of measures in which it is to be voted
down by mere numbers in the upper House, the
Importance Of having an administration prepared
to bring forward such measures as will appeal to
the good sense of the country at large, and to ad-
vocate them with personal force, becomes ap-
parent.
The system which obtains in England and also
in the Australian Colonies is an admirable one,
but it is not available here for obvious reasons.
In the first place, government there has always a
definite and pronounced policy on public ques-
tions, a failure to carry which in the popular
branch of the Legislature necessarily involves the
resignation of a Ministry. The new Cabinet is
thereupon formed from among the leaders of that
party which was the opposition; but before tax
ing their portfolios the newly selected Ministers
go back to their constituents and are voted for or
against de noro, on some declared policy. Here,
however, our Ministry does not resign and for a
refractory Legislature there remains the remedy
of the Royal veto.
AS to what " the opposition - will amount to
in the coming session,-will depend very much
as we have intimated above, on the tact and
ability displayed by the leaders on the govern
ment side. A Hawaiian House of Representa-
tives can be managed and it can be mismanaged
and government must exert itself to do the one or
experience the other. Parties, as such, may
scarcely be said to exist among the electors, but
they soon deVelope among the elected and one or
two able leaders among the Representatives can
ness, or the contrary.
The following is a list of the Representatives
for 1876, with the exception of the Districts Of
South Kona on Hawaii, and Waimea on Kauai,
in the first Of which there was a tie, and in the
second a postponement

II VIEW of the mischievous use that Is some
times made by candidates for the Legislature of
the law requiring the production by a voter of his
tax receipt, the probability is that an effort will
be made during the coming session to secure it's
repeal. 1t will be well however to consider
whether, by hastily endeavoring to cure one evil,
we may not be substituting another and a worse
one. For instance, in districts where there are
two polling places, if the production of tax re-
ceipts was not required, there would be nothing
to prevent " repeating"

Partizan Malignity.

The malicious and vindictye spirit that char
acterizes the Conservative press towards Col.
NJ. D. Ball, Of the Alexandria Sentinel is a
plain and telling commentary npon the tylan-
ny and despotism of that patty. Col. Ball has
declared for Hayes and Wheeler, and among
the various reasons assigned for his course is
that Virginia will never prosper SO long as the
present prosciptivc and sectional party controls
her affairs. Col. Ball simply exercises the rights
and privileges of a citizen in declaring for
THE Republican party. He is governed BY
his best judgment and conscience. and because
fe chooses to do this, he is unsparinelv de-
alounced and malgned by the representatives
of che Conservative party. 1t requires lit
tie courage and fortituds to face this kind of
prescription: but the spirit of prescription will
wear itself out in the course of time. and only
leave an unpleasant remembrance with those
who indulge it, without at all injuring the par
fy against whom it may have been directed. =
The people Of the country will decide with Col.
Ball, aad the election of Hayes and Wheeler
Will sufficiently vindicate his Judgment and
conduct

The Platte Gocde Case.

There can be no reasonable doubt that Col.
James III. Platte is entitled to the seat in Con
gress now held by John Goode, jr. The fact
that the committee stands five for Platte and
five for Goode, one Democrat, IIouser, of Ten
nessee, in favor OF referring the election back
to the people, is pretty strong evidence that
Goode has no bushes Or right in Congress-
Houser, it is stated, was first for Platte but
changed to tile view just stated Thompson,
Democrat of Massachusetts,, is for Platte.
1t is now believed that the case will 20 over
to the next Congress, by which ruse Goodc
will again appear in his scat, and hold it to the
end OF the term. This is simply an outrage
upon justice and the elective system. 1t is u
grave error, too, upon the part OF the Demo-
cratic members Of the committee who place
party above duty. 1t will return to plague
them rs certain as effect follows cause Goode,
in the first place, should never have had the
certificate Of election. It was Il fraud that
1T was ever given; and he certainly ought not to
have been allowed to keep it this long in the
face of the evidence in the case
Since the above was written, the committee
have reported in favor OF Platte, Messrs. Hots-
er and Thompson. Democrats, voting for him.

Important to Bankrupts.

From the following paragraph it will be seen
that an important amendment to The bankrupt
law has been adopted by the conference COM
nittee of the Senate and House of Repre-
sentatives. Heretofore a bankrupt had to
surrender assets equal 10 80 per cent of his
indebtedness before he could get discharge.
The amendment radically changes this clause,
and enables the applicant to procure dis
charge, at any time after six months from ad-
Indication, or if no debts have been proved
against him, or 10 assets in the hands of an
assignee, after the expiration Of sixty DAYS
from adjudication
The conference committees report on the
act to amend the bankrupt act, which was
adopted in the House just before adjournment
to day, provides that section 5lOS OF the revised
statutes is hereby amended as follows: AT
any time after the expiration of six months
from adjudication of bankruptcy, or if no debts
have been proved against the bankrupt or il
no assets have come to the hands OF the assignee
at auy time after the expiration of sixty GAYS.
and before final disposition of cause the bank
rupt may apply to the court for discharge
from his debts.'' This section shall apply in
all cases heretofore or hereafter commenced.

NORTH CARoLINA.-The Republicans OF
North Carolina have nominated very able
ticket for State officers, with Judge Settle for
Governor. 1t is said to be the most uneXcep
tionable list of candidates ever presented to
that people, The Republicans are confident OF
carrying the ticket, and giving the vote OF the
State for Hayes and Wheeler.
Mr.. Vance, the Democratic nominee for
Governor, spoke in Raleigh the day after the
Republican Convention. He declined to d.
vide time with Judge Settle, which greatly
surprised and dissatisfied many Democrats.

New York liberal Republicans for Hayes
and Wheeler

There was . meeting of the Executive Com
mttee of the Liberal Republican State Com
mttee Of New York, on the 10th inst. Hon.
Jno Cochrane was in the chair and 4 full rep
resehtatlon present, comprising the leading
and most influential members of the Liberal
Republican, party chat supported Greeley in
1872. After a full Interchange Of opinions,
from which it appears that the members of the
committee uniformly favored the Hayes and
Wheeler ticket, it was determined that the Lib
eral Republicans OF the State of New York in
favor OF the Republican ticket, meet in State
Convention at Saratoga on the 23d day of Au-
gust next. Thc indications all point to an
Wheeler by the Liberal Republicans Of New
York. AS the Republicans carried New York
in 1872 by $4,000 majority, when the Liberal
Republicans and Democrats were united on
Greeley, it is very clear that the Cincinnati
nominees will sweep the State i'll 1876. Apart
from the combined strength of the regular Re-
publican organization and the Liberal Repub-
licans, there are many Democrats who will
support the Republican nominees, Influenced
by the corrupt record of Tilden and his con-
necton with Tammany; the suspicious rela
tons OF the Democratic party respecting the
financial question, as well as the amendments
to The constitution and the rights of citizenship
i'll the South. The Republicans never entered
upon campaign in New York with so many
suspicious and assuring surroundings. 1t
is claimed by well informed and reliable politi-
cians that Hayes and Wheeler will carry The
State by from $4,000 to $4,000 majority. Even
candid Democrats admit that Tilden cannot
carry it, and this admission virtually gives up
the contest.
