and begins to talk about a region of
terror among the negroes of any section
of the South whatever, he ought at

dragged through the nearest horse>

WASHINGTON, July 31.-The Indiana
republicans in Washington are exceed
ingly anxious about the result in that
state in October next. A meeting was
held at the Ebbitt House last night, at
which it was agreed that the good of
the party required the withdrawal of
Godlove S. Orth from the ticket as the
nominee for governor. Orth, it said,
is ready to be martyred, and will SUBJ
nit to decapitation whenever the state
committee is ready to proceed with
this solemn duty. The Venezuelan
claims commission swindle is more
than the good of the party can stand in
the approaching campaign.

A HAZY EXPLANATION.

1t has proven rather hard task to
convince General Grant that the unne-
cessary avowal made in Gov. Hayes
letter of acceptance, that one term in
the Presidential Office was enough for
truly patriotic man-was not intend
ed as bold 2ing at him. His party
had been agitated as much as his op-
ponents with the belief that he want.
ed even third term, aud
indeed had pressed him so closely that
he was compelled once to write let
ter on the subject. And yet he and
his particular friends had been mainly
instrumental in lifting Governor Hayes
out OF comparative obscurity and Civ
ing him the nomination of his party.
This made Hayes's utterance the "un-
kindest cut of ALL"
To intimate to the President in his
present mood that Governor Hayes
intended that part of his letter as a
slap at George Washington, is an ar
gument which appears to lack the re-
quisite thickness. The President
shakes his head sarcasticallyand glares
de does not like to be suspected of
being as credulous as a horse ,marine.
And yet that is the way certain very
Jealous pratisans would calm the per-
turbation in the Presidential breast.
They would impress upon Grant that
the nominee could not say much di.
rectly upon the subject of reform lest
he gave offence to the noble army of
martyrs who hold the places, and re
1ect upon the administration severely.
He could not touch a popular chord
by saying that two terms were enough
for one man, for that would make it
appear that he wanted more than one
term, and would directly point to the
recent third term agitation and the
principal figure in it. But to say at
the start that one term was enough to
satisfy his ambition was modest ap>
peal in in itself, was pleasant to aspi-
rants who hope to succeed him, would
demonstrate that he would be an inn
provement upon all his two-term pre-
decessors, and showed that even
George Washington was slouch be-
side him. Therefore, the one term
pledge was rather a hot shot for the
Father of his Country, and would
show to the people that they had q can
didate who could not be surpassed, un
less Tilden went back and got up an
improvement on Solomon. And yet,
Grant is just that perverse that he
will not be pacified even with so plau
sible an explanation. Some people
are too provoking.

The assertion by JudgelBlack in his
late defense of Belknap, that the Presi
dent was the recipient, as a present
from Judge Hoar, of law library, is
emphatically denied by Mr.. Hoar. He
neither gave him library nor any
thing else in the lifetime of either, and
this denial. the Boston Globe thinks,
"ought to settle the question" Any
how, when Grant wants law he dosen't
look in books for it.

Steele just ly brides himself on having not only the most elegantly fitted store in Connecticut, but stock of goods unrivsllcd 5y many of the great New York houses.
