ooNGER VS.. EWING.
Conger, the Republican member from
Michigan, has been Ewing's evil genius
ell this session. He did more than any
body else to get BwinR's Resumption
Repeal Bill into the snine-holes" and
keepit there. Conger has not Ewing's
brains-few men haYe--but neither has
Ewing got Conger's cheek, energy and
craft. Ewing 10 q great big Newfound-
land dog, good natured, handsome, gen.
erous, gentlemanly and high.Loned /;
CoDger 10 snappish, fiery, aggressive
SCOTCH terrier, as ready for q light as a

Bwing almost to death. II Ewing was
less generous be would turn round and
swallow the Michigander at one swoop.
But Ewing bided his time, and has
passed his bill by ID majority, and he

The Correct Statement OF the
Case.

From The n. 0. Democrat.
The New York Sun, referring to
the anticipated new Southern
policy of MIR. Hayes, aud the ae-
ceptance Of it by the South, says
The South is invited to the banquet
of robbery OF its own rights, and
asked to share III its own sPoliation.
John Sherman and his confederates,
who are responsible for all the inta-
mics Of reconstruction, and who, mp 10
the early days of December, We're en-
gagged with the returning rascals at
New Orleans III completing the villuiny
lay which 1tanlsiana WAS sold to Hayes,
have now the audicIty to lnyoke the
corporation OF the very men whom
they libelled, outraged, cheated, ana
detained with fabricated atfidavlts and
with the snborned testimony OF igno,
rant or vicious negloes
" i; X "
AL these acts, declarations, and in
suits date since the election in Novem-
Der, and most of them are quite recent
While they are fresh before the coun
try. the agents of Hayes are seeking to
drive a balgain ut Washington, by
which the people who have been thus
illuminated and wronged shall snrren-
der their manhood, wear self-inposed
badge Of degradation, and become ac
complices in the crimes of their plum
dering oppressors. Il
= it will be interesting to
know if there is single Southern man
of any prominence and character who
would centaminate himself by bar
gain and sale such as has been offered
by the friends of HAYES. If there be
tratfickers of a secondary class, we adj
wise them, should the opportunity
offer, to follow the example of Wells
and his Returning Board, and get their
price in hand "befere delivering the
goods"
Now, this is all very eloquent
but rather violent writing, and
quite unealled for, as it is in no
respect a correct statement of the
relation of the South to Mr.. Hayes
ana MS aSeuts. AL that the
Sun says of the mission of Sen
ator Sherman and This conied-
crates I" to this State is true !; no
man in the United States, we pre-
sumo, will deny this /; but that
"itheyihave invoked the eo-opera-
ton Of the very men whom they
Ilibelled, outraged, cheated" etc,
or that they are seeking to drive a
bargain "by which the people
they have thus caluinniated an 1
wponged shall surrender their
manhood, etc, or that any case
is presented 10 which Southern

The Turco-ServIAn War.

CoNsTASTINoPLE, January 2.-The
European plcuIpotentiaries had an in
formal meeting on Sunday to consider
the counter-proposals. The Russian,
German, Au triau and French dele
gates declared they could no: act with
the Porte, and seemed inclined TO cut
short the discussion. After Lord Sails
Ou had stated his views they became

conference should present their origi
nal propositions again Monday. The
situation is very grave.
CoNsTANTINoPLE, January .. - At
the fourth session OF the conference
yesterday Mr.. Salisbury expressed the
views of the plenipotenliarles upon the
Turkish counter proposals. The points
upon winch Turkey refuses to Regoti-
ate are local gendarmie with foreign
| participation, the question of inter-
nal commission ana extension of the
Servian frontier, and answering wheth-
er this declaration was tantamount TO
an absolute refusal.
The Turkish delegates replied that
they must refer the matter to the Porte,
and will give definite reply on Thurs,
day.
Mr.. Salisbury visited the Grand
Vizer after the conference.
The Turkish delegates to the con.
ference have not only declared that
they cannot discuss certain points OF
the proposals made by the powers,
but their counter proposals differ COM
pietely from the scheme agreed upon
by the plenipOtentiaries.
Gen. Ignatietf, Russla's plenlpoten-
tiary. declared that he cannot discuss
the Turkish proposals, sn.i in this he
is supported by the other plenipoten-
tiaries.

WHERE AND WHEN AND HOW
TO DRINK.

Two.thirds of murders COM
mitted, temperance people say, are in
or about dramsheps, and the knife is
often welded or pistol fired, like the
murderer's brain, by whisky. II there
were no dramshops, drunken people,
it is alleged by temperance people,
would have no fixed places of meeting,
and the number of crimes that degrade
Texas N the worlds eyes and fill the
land with widows and orphans, many
good men think, would be greatly les
scned. Let him, therefore, who must
drink, drink at his own home, say the
local optionists, and then he corrupts
his own household alone, and his ex
ample does not affect the public.
Moreover, the suppression OF dram.
shops will make the money OF sots last
longer. They will buy and drink at
wholesale, and their wives and chill
dren will have more to invest in food
and fuel and clothing, and, drinking
at wholesale, they may die the sooner,
and thus the good fortune OF the fam.
| lily and that of the community are alike
promoted. They will, however, in,
duce the f0west number possible, by
this domestic drinking, to initiate
their example. They will entice NJ
