Ex-Vlce President Colfax, we are informed,
Is on the stump for Hayes. This Is right
Every man who was proven to be connected
with the Credit Mobilier Steal should support
Hayes and Wheeler; and Colfax Is one of them.
Tilden and Hendricks are in favor of reform
and opposed to stealing.-lohio State Register.
Tilden was at the head of that little
affair; but the Gallipolis Bulletin, pub
lished by Congressman Vance, says the
Credit Mobilier is all right. since Tilden
was the lawyer who recommended it.
Says the Register "Tilden and Hen
bricks are in favor of reform and opposed
to stealing; but here comes the Ironton
Democrat, an orthodox Democratic pa
per, and says:
Tllden seeks to buy his way to the Presiden-
tal chair with money stolen from the masses
of the people, and in the advocacy OF doctrines
which enrich the few and impoverish the
many, he hopes to be elected. lie is a fraud on
the people and his so-called reform measure is
sham.

WASHINGTON, August IL.
The Democratic members remaining
in the city are in great rage about the
order of Secretary Cameron directing
General Sherman to hold all available
troops in readiness for use in the South.
Their rage is largely concentrated upon
the head of Mr.. Scott Lord, whose Teso-
luton, which made the occasion of the
Secretary of Wars order, is censured, as
a kind Of blunder that is worse than a
crime. Southern Democrats profess to
be alarmed at the order, and say it
means an attempt to carry Louisiana,
Mississippi, and possibly other States by
military power. Northern Democrats
generally claim it will help them in
their States more than it will hurt their
party friends in the South. Republicans,
and particularly Southern Republicans
universally express their delight at the
order, which they say will do a great
deal to secure a fair election.

Brooklyn at all. What they have done, no
one appears to know, not even the mem
bers themselves, but what they have not
done is more apparent to all. Mr.. Beecher
GOT off number of his prayers, and in the
most affecting style: bis gush Of language
had fine opportunity for vent, and instead
of being held for the investigation of
Beecher, the council seemed to be guided
and managed by Beecher himself. he was
present at all hearings and meetings, and
enjoyed privileges extraordinary for a man
that was on trial for charges so severe as
those made against him. The reason of
such strong protestations from him against
mutual council are now plainly seen. We
are inclined to think that It would have
been /" hodge podge" affair that would
not have allowed him as much dictation as
the Advisory Council. The sooner the
whole matter is allowed to drop, the better
it will be for the country, and all who are
concerned in it. The Advisor y Council has

TIL OBSERVANCE of the 22nd of Februa
ry as national holiday appears to have re.
ceived more than the usual attention Of re-
spect given such occasions. In every ham,
let, village, town and city, the day was one
of holiday. This was inspired in great
measure, it is thought, owing to the fact
thatit was the Centennial year, and acted
forcibly to remind the people of their duty
to patriotism. Congress did not pass a
resolution making this special twenty-sec-
ond a national holiday until the 2lst, and
reached the President for his signature in
time only to be proclaimed to the country
by telegraph, but the people had caught up
the enthusiasm before, and needed not this
admonition to give it due observance.
This furnishes ample advertisement that the
Centennial with all the glories it Is intended
to celebrate, has sufficiently imbued the
minds of the people to bring it to q success.

that the representative systems OF govern
ment, AMI an innate code Of municipal in
dependence were political feelings rife in
the breasts of the French people. In 1S4S
Louis Phillip vas obliged 10 fly the realm
because Of his inability to accommodate
himself to the ever increasing demands Of
the people for enlarged freedom. We
all know the history of the twenty
seven years in France, now she became
.emporarily fascinated by the glamour Of
. Napoleonic name, and with extraordi-
nary rapidity she advanced in manufao-
lures, comm cree and consequent pros
perity. The disasters of 1870 and 1871
we're probably to her needed lesson, a
ourgation which rendered her purer by
he punishment inflicted. Since 1871 no
nation in the world, either ancient or
modern has ever made such giant strides
to prosperity and domestic greatness.
rhe Government and the people, alike,
have shown to the world that France
possesses an enormous fund of political
virtues Of the very best order:-the vir-
ues tittest to support and to sustain a
popular form Of government. For the
irst time in many generations France has
been free to crystalize into political
action her ideas of national and munici-
pal government, and the result Is Re-
public.
The spirit which armed her Burghers
Of the cities Of the olden time to stand up
for their chartered rights against the
eudal claims of the Barrons that ami
mated her parliamentary orators in the
old provincial assembly to rouse the peo-
pie in defense of their provincial rights is
not dead. I. has out lives all it's enemies;
aosolutism is dead and gone. the hot, fiery
wrath of the revolution is cooled, the
Cossack and the Uhlan no longer tread the
soil of France. Her people are free to
act, and being free they have repudiated
Legitimists, Orleanists and Bonapartists
alike as foreign to the needs Of the hour,
and have decreed France to be Republic
in name and in fact, and long may our
first ally continued to be our greatest Re-
publican sister.

SH1PBCnDING is as great in America
now as it ever attained in Europe. OF course
with the rises and fails Of business it has
suffered considerably. The Philadelphia
LEDGER" in speaking of American ship
building says that it experienced quite re-
vival during 1878 and 1874, met as marked
decline as in 1875. Whilst 2l74 vessels were
built in 1874, the number for 1878 was but
1918. The falling off, however, was in the
smaller classes of vessels, the brgs and
schooners, there having been as many ships
and barks built last year as during 1874
There were ia ships built in 1875, and $40
steamers, among the latter being many
small craft. Three -fourtls Of the sailing
vessels are reported as being constructed in
the shipyards of Maine, the next largest be-
ing built in Massachusetts,. The tonnage
constructed during 1875, although much
less than for some previous years, is said to
equal the yearly average Of the past quarter
ola century.
