We may expect to hear news OF disorders in
Mississippi, by way Of Washington, from this
time forward until the forts of Senator Nor.
ton and his followers to reverse, so far as
possible, the results. Of the late election in
that State have come to q definite end. a
dispatch origin ating in one of the depart
ments was sent over the country on Wednes.
day night announcing terrible state OF affairs
in Pike county, which required the immediate
presence Of United States troops. Il Is posi-
bic that such disorders may exist, but judg-
ing from the reports sent from the same State
previous to the election, the probability is
that some triAng personal difficulty has been
magnified into a small rebellion.
The people have not forgotten the exploits
of Ananias Hays and his confederates IN fab
ricating outrages in Alabama for effect in the
North; nor how suddenly the alleged viola
tions Of the public peace subsidized when it
was found that no further political capital
could be made out of them. Mississippi.
since the last election, in which the Ames
party was SO signally defeated, has been ex-
ceptionally quiet; but there is every indica-
ton of the speedy issue from the Washington
outrage mill of alarming accounts of the per-
secution of loyal blacks and whites there.
Whenever their offices and stealIngs are in
danger the carpet-baggers in the South de-
velop capacity for barefaced lying which is
truly remarkable York S,m.

RADICAL ECONOMY.
4 o,rEER LOT OF EXPENDITURES IN AND ABOUT
THE FEDERAL CAPITAL
From the Baltimore Sun.

(From the Baltimore Sum-
WASHINGTON, Dec. 27.-In the interval
CLEANSING between the adjournment OF Con.
0ress. on the 4th of March last, and the as
sembly of the Forty-fourth Congress, there
seems to have been a more general cleaning
ont than usual ofathe furniture of the COM
mittee rooms. Acierk just az pointed to one
OF the committees reports that, on taking pos
session Of his committee room, he found that
it had been stripped OF nearly everything
portable OF value 1t has for many years
been considered perfectly legitimate for en-
ployees around the House wing OF the Capl-
tol to carry off, at the end OF Congress, any
thing that they can lay their hands upon.
To supply the loss occasioned IN this man.
ner, over $4,000 have been expended under
the head OF furniture and repairs IN the
last five months Between S25, 900 and $780,
600 are thrown away annually on the Capitol
police
The Clerk of the House paid out since the
Both of June last up to December l, $3.50 for
pocket-books and card cases, and $l573 tor
gold pens and pencils. Such large purchase
of these articles could only have been necessi-
tated by the total abstraction Of the old sup
ply on hand. !,
Between two and three thousand dollars
worth OF pocketknives were also purchased
for the new members. If the Democratic
House is sincere in its desire for economy IL
can do no better than by beginning the Work
of rettenchment in its own household
1t would be difficult for any member 10 al
lege any reason, except that OF precedent
Why he should be furnished at the puolic
expense with costly Russia leather pocket
books, gold pens and pocket knives: nor Is
there any shadow OF right IN permitting Hem
bers horse-car tickets at the public expense.
One of the most crying abuses under the
House is the hire of horses ana carriages.
This is a perqui,ite enjoyed, and very I'M
properly too, by officers of the body. Many
thousand dollars are annually paid out on
this account, in LII any instances more being
paid every month for the use OF horse than
his entire value.
Under the law every member is allowed
1925 worth per annum OF stationery and
newspapers, or he IL allowed to commute his
allowance in money. At least nine-tenths OF
the members draw all the stationery they
need "a very comprehensive term) from the
general allowance, and then take Sl25 IN
money An end should be put to all these
things and to various other abuses which 1t
is not necessary to specify.
At least 500, 600 per annum can and ought
to be saved in the expenses OF the House OF
Representatives. The Democratic majority in
that body can do more than popular thing
than by applying the much talked Of pruning
knife to the Looping off Of its own useless and
unjustifable ex.ravagances.

ANOTHER AMERICAN CoNFEDERACY.-A move
ment OF considerable interest to the people
of the United States is under way in Central
America 1t is nothing less than an attempt
to form other United States, or rather con-
federation OF States, in Central America. The
Government of Guatemala has issued circu-
lar to the other four Central American
provinces, proposing basis Of union which
is likely to be adopted. The propositions
are fourteen in number, and constitute a basis
OF union which would benefit all alike, and
ultimately lead to compact as close as that
of our own Federal Union.
1t is proposed to adopt uniform laws as far
Is practicable; have consular, postal, tele-
graph, civil, penal and commercial relations
adjusted on q common basis and establish
uniformity in all essentials to international
harmony. The States display some jealousy,
and manifest a desire to maintain degree OF
independence, which is incompatible with a
full realization of such union as is proposed,
but they are evidently approaching it. Their
MISCONCEPTIONS will be watched with nc
little interest by this country, which has al
ready solved the problem Of union, and which
will bid them God speed in their efforts.
