A SUGGESTIVE "MARGIN"-INTrMIDA-

On the Sth Of July last, the United
States grand jury, sitting at Oxford,
Miss, made its report. stating, among
other things, that "the fraud, in
timidatIon, and violence perpetrated
at the last election, is without PARALLEL
in the annals OF history" but also
pointing out some OF the defects In
the national election law, and their
failure to find indictments in eouse-
quenee. Reviewing this report the
Meriden MISSY Mercury Is led to

"The lesson we draw for our bene-

phases of suffering when the eyes OF
all her companions turned on her
with astonishment and shadowing
distrust, for the unseen foe took care
that the intelligence of her guilt
should spread beyond the note on
prudent Miss Cranes desk, and bits
of psper containing the same state
ment were showered about the school,
on the threshold, in desks, between
the leaves OF books, and in rooms.
In the first place she was simply be-
wiIdered and stEpefied she was the
victim of cruel hoax, a schoolgirl
prank. A knot of girls in the hall
were reading a sheet discovered in

fingers, although she spoke bravely.

The giFIs separated before her in

Democratic Reformers.

The Democratic House does not
get on well with its "reform," if its
experience with the officers it has
surrounded itself with is a test. Since
the dismissal of Hambleton six of its
officers have got into trouble. 1t
turned out the venerable and incor-
ruptible John NJ. Barclay, who had
faithfully served both parties for over
thirty years, and now it is compelled
to eject Smith, his successor for en-
gaging in illegal transactions as a
Claim agent, in violation of the revis-
ed statutes. 1t is also said that the
Assistant Journal Clerk is likely to
be removed. A Washington dis.
patch to the Tribune saos
"The pompous, burly doorkeper,
who has SO long been disrespectful to

Dictated more than once for grave of

House are already being investigated.
Republicans ask, If these things are
possible in the green tree, what will
they be in the dry !? If in three
months the Democratic House finds
that six of its own officers have been
concerned in such transactions, what
would be the result ifthe party should

An advancing Plague.
DwALLADER,
Asst Sec'y of State.

The London Times, the Lancet, and
other English journals, appear to be
getting really alarmed about the
continued approach of the plague.
The disease has been absent from
England and the continent of Europe
fore more than $50 years, and from
its once fayorite haunts in Egypt,
Syria, and Mesopotamia for about
forty years. During the last two
years, the disease has appeared now
and again in villages on the lower
Euphrates, and is has now broken out
at Hillah, and several severe cases
have occurred at Bandad. The re-
cent outbreaks have shown no dimin-
ution of the old virulence, and in the
opinion of the Times there can be lit
tie doubt, when the present state of
commercial communication is consid
cred, that the malady may soon be
conveyed from Bagdad to the LIE
want. From the Levant it might
easily pass to Europe, and even to
the shores of England. The plague
was last prevalent in Bagdad in 1891
SO, and il is believed that between
the 18th of March and the 29th OF
April, 1881, not less than 10000 per-
sons fell victims to the disease among
population estimated at 100000.

THE defeat of Mr.. Carter, Re-
publican candidate for judge of the
fifth circuit is exciting some COM
ment. The fifth circuit comprises
the counties Of Grant, Iowa, Craw-
ford, Richland and La Fayette. At
the last election these counties gave
Ludington 954 majority. The Platte
vile Witness lays Mr. Csrter's de-
feat to retaliation by the 'ring" for
his opposition to Senator Carpenter
in the late senatorial contest. We
had supposed the Carpenter-W ash.
bourn fight was over long ago. We
hope the Witness is mistaken in its
Barab6o Republic.

WE have neglected to mention that
the salary bill, which provides for re-
ducing the salary of the President to
S25, 900 per annum after the 4th Of
March next, received the veto of the
President. In the accompanying
message he calls attention to the fact
that when the salary of the President
was fixed at s25, 900 year members
OF Congress received SO day for an
average of one hundred and twenty
days to the session, or only 1920 a
year. The salary of the President
has not been increased until the last
year. while the pay of members has
been increased sevenfold. He saws
that he knows, from his own expert
enee, that the salary of $4,000 is in
adequate for the expense of living at
the White House.

from frequent appeals to his great
public constituency, and even if be

al to himself are adding weight to
the Presidents anxieties. Much sur
prise was felt at the tim, he disposed
of his ST Louis farm and stock that
be let it go so cheap, but it is evil
dent now that it was case of neces-
sity. He makes no particular secret
of it but the fact is not generally
known that he has met with heavy
losses and is poorer o.day than
when he ENTERED upon his office.
His losses were occasioned by invest
ments in real estate. The bulk of
his fortune was put into Long
Branch and New York Boulevard
property several years ago and both
have greatly deprecated. There is
hardly any sale for the former and
as for the New York boulevard it is
eating its own head off with taxes.
The President has lately had to sac
rifice property near Washington to
meet the demands upon him arriving
from paving and otherwise improV.
ing the boulevard property. His
wealth therefore is dmly prospec-
tive, or in other words be is s'land
poor" as they used to call the real
estate owners of 81, who had vast
territorial possessions on paper and
not a cent on hand. Lamentable as
it may seem it can be safely said that
if he were cail,d on to "settle" to-
day, he would not be much better
off than Henry Wilson, who said a
few years ago 10 the Senate that if
he were to die that night he wonld
not leave money enough to buy him
a pine coffin. In fact the fortunes
of public men are generally overesti-
mated, but in President Grants in
stance they are telling exaggerated
stories about his wealth, which are ut
terly untrue and positive disadvant-
age to hisinterests. In the light of the
facts they ought to cease entirely.
But having given this letter up to
the Presidential topics | might as
we'll close with an opinion expressed
about the new party movement
about to be inaugurated in New
York under the call of VIM. Cullen
Bry ant, Carl Schurz and others.
Said prominent politician: IL look
upon the movement as purely the re.
suit of the personal ambition of Mr..
Schurz; anybody who knows him
recognizes his marks. If the con-
vention does not nominate some one
| in his immediate control he will bolt
again, see if he don't" This may
be wild guess but give it for
what it is worth. The movement
attracts little attention here and it
is not generally believed that it will
amount to anything. The opinion
is that it is too sentimental for sue.
