THE NEW REVOLT.

The Republican party in their appeal to
the people were signally defeated, and now
are appealing to force. In South Carolina,
the Democrats appealed to the Supreme
Court of the State, over which Chief Justice
Moses presides One Of the Judges is ne
gro, aud all are strong Republicans. The
Court has complete jurisdiction of the con-
troversy, and it excludes that of a Federal
Court. But an armed force overrides the
will of the people legally expressed, and an
itinerant FederalJudge releases the violators
of the law.
1t has been well said that" history repeats
itself" We refer to decision made by for
mer Judge Moses some $500 years ago, and
who had also been prominent member of
the Administration. As the authority in
which the decision is to be found is not Of
ten consulted by Radical politicians, and
as many of them, Mr.. Ingersoll for instance,
ignore its authority, We refer them to the
case of Korah, ct al. reported in Numbers,
Chap l6. from which we make the following
quotations; ......r, ........ .
l. Now Korah, the son Of Izhar the son Of kohath:
the son Of Levi and Dathan and AbiraIn the sons Of

The recent collapse of the First Ma
tional Bank of La Crosse, Wis, has
caused considerable excitement in that
region, and the report that Mr.. George
NJ. Wheeler, of Chicago, its President,
has appropriated a large amount OF its
funds and left for parts unknown,
seems incredible to those acquainted
with that gentleman. We cannot but
think that there is some mistake about
it. Mr. Wheeler, who was formerly
Auditor Of the old Galena Union Rail-
road, and also subsequently actively
connected with the Elgin Watch Fac
tory, has long enjoyed a high reputa-
tion in this city and vicinity as an ex
pert financier and a man of strict in
tegrity, and we would reluctantly be.
leve that be is guilty of the crime
now charged to him.

WASHINGTON, De c., April s.
The Secretary of the Treasury receiv-
ed Lynde's resolution yesterday morn
ing asking for the names of newspaper
editors or correspondents he paid
money to in connection with the whis-
ky prosecutions, and early in the af:.
ternoon sent full answer thereto. He
called the attention of the House to
the fact that he had advised Congress
in his report of these widespread
whisky frauds, of the difficulties of un-
earthing them, and of the impossible
ty of reaching them through the usual
means, and it became necessary to en-
ploy persons not known to be in the
service of the Government. In the
early stages of the Investigation in St.
Louis, a commercial editor having
special facilities for obtaining knowl-
edge Of the shipments of whisky was
commissioned special agent of the De-
partment, and charged with the discov-
cry of these frauds. His connection
with the press soon ceased, an d he has
continued in the revenue service. The
Secretary says that during the pro-
gress of the Investigations, and the
trials which resulted, he has received
valuable information and suggestions
from newspapers ard persons connect
ed with the press, but, with the excep-
tion named, none have asked or receiv-
ed any compensation from the depart
ment. The Secretary, however,
says be would not have hesitated mo-
ment to have employed and paid these
trustworthy ..persons if it had been
necessary. The letter closes as follows:
s'But giving to the inquiry the broad
est scope, the Secretary has the honor
to say that he has neither the knowl.
edge nor information of the payment
of any sum Of money By any such off,
Ger or person to any newspaper editor
or correspondent for any purpose what
ever; nor has he reason to suppose that
any such payment has been made

That Safe Burglary Case.

WASHINGTON, Arril 6.-The sub
committee Of the House judiciary
Committee, investigating the safe-bur-
glary conspiracy, were in sessi on more
than four hours Friday, and Colonel
Whitley, late Chief of the Sc cret Ser
vice, was examined at great length.
Some highly important developments
were made, and the results Of care
full and searching inquiry ju stify the
positive statement that Colonel White
ly's testimony directly implica tes Gen
eral Babcock as one of the principal
members, if not the chief conspirator.
in the safe burglary. The history of
this conspiracy in brief is as follows:
During the investigation Of the Bo
Sheppard district government in the
latter part of the first session of the
Forty third Congress, plan was FORM
ed to break down The character of Col
umbus Alexander, the prime mover in
the investigation, and to this end pro-
fessional burglars we're employed to
break open the safe in the District At
torney's Office here, abstract certain ac-
count books, and carry them to Colum-
bus Alexander's house, where they
were to be discovered in the act of de-
livery, aud Alexander was to be prose-
cuted tor the crime. The safe was
opened, and the books taken to Alex
ander's but there the scheme miscar-
ried. Suspicious circumstances subse.
quently leaked out, and the District
Attorney, Dick Harrington, Nettle-
ship, the detective, and several minor
personages, we're indicted for conspir-
acy. 1t was intimated quite silently
at the time that somebody higher than
Harrington was involved, but there
was not evidence enough to bring them
in; and indeed, from some strange
cause, nobody was found guilty, the
jury disagreelng. The government
secret service was brought into disgrace
by the developments of the trial, the.
fact appearing that it had been used to
further the designs of the conspirators,
and Colonel Whitley lost his position
as chief.
There is abundant reason to believe
that Whitley testified before the Inves-
tigating Committee Friday, that Bah
cock sent for him while he (Whitelys
was in Florida, and that, on his COM
plying with the summons, Babcock told
him that formidable movement was on
foot which might involve his removal
from the head Of the secret service,
and that the safe burglary was naces-
sary for the protection both of Babcock
and himself The result was that
Whitley undertook the job, and made
the arrangements for it in conf JUNCTION
with Harrington. One of tn most
important parts Of his testimony is that
in November, 1874, soon after the
disagreement Of The jury, Whitley went
to A. G Riddle, who was special coun-
sci for the government in this case, and
told him that if be would guarantee
him (Whitely) immunity from punish
ment be would make a clean breast of
the whole affair This proposition, it
is said, was reported by Riddle to the
Attorney General, and by the Attorney
General to President Grant. who, it is
claimed, ordered the discharge Of Riddle

Later reports from New York do
not indicate. that there will be any
distressing ice famine thereabouts, al.
though comparatively little ice has
been harvested on the Hudson. The
principal supply will come from the
rivers and lakes of Maine, and of
Massach ussetts around Boston. Gen
tlemen who have examined into the
abundance of the harvest gather from

of which AT 900 tons have already

LIGHT WANTED. MADISON, April
6.-The action of the Confederate
Congress in not furnishing appropria-
tions for fuel and lights to government
buildings is felt in our city. Post
master Keyes has received an order to
cut off those useful appurtenances. For
tunately, however, there is enough
fuel to last till warm weather. The
postofice is, however, closed at dark
but Postmaster Keyes, with commend
able public spirit, will furnish light
enough at his own expense to expedite
the sending and receiving of night
