rhe day has passed for such displays of
oigOtry, and was no doubt anxious To head

SIMON CAMERoN's man Friday, John j
Patterson, formerly from Juniata county,
i'll this State, aud now a carpet-bag mem
Der of the L. S. Senate from South Caro-
lima, was sensibly impressed last week with
the idea that LIE had discovered a method
which would not fail to relieve the people
Of South Carolina aud Louisiana from the
manifold evils under which they have suf-
fered, aud produce harmony and peace
within their borders. Patterson's S pdndceo
was new election in both States. He
seems to have been ignorant of the fact,
that in neither State is there any law TO
warrant such an election, and that if Con-
gress could even provide for holding one,
which it manifestly could not, the two
houses were not then in session. Patter-
sons plan fell still-born and was universal
ly jeereG at and secuted as a most senseless
and impracticabe proposition. Hayes
laughed at it, Hampton spurned it, Cham
berlain repudiated it, and by common con-
sent the absurd scheme fell into general
contempt. When Wade Hampton heard
of Patterson new way Of settling elections,
he is reported as saying that he would con-
sent to run the race over again with Cham
berlain only on one condition, and that
was that Hayes would agree to q now cleo
tion between himself and Tilden. That
was hitting the nail straight on the head.

II seems now to be fixed fact, that an
extra session of Congress will be called to
meet about the 1st of June. The necessi-
ty for this step grows out Of the failure of
Congress to pass the appropriation bill for
the support OF the army. That bill con-
tanned two leading elements-first, a reduc.
tion Of the force from %, 900 to II, 900 men ::
and, secondly. clause prohibiting the
PRESIDENT from using any part of the mon
ey, OF any of the troops, in sustaining lille
gal governments in South Carolina end
Louisiana. The bill passed the Democrat
ic House in this shape and was sent to the
Republican Senate. Blu. that body, led by
Blaine and all the other extremists, re-
fused to accept the bill with these two
clauses inserted in it. Repeated meetings
of the conference committee Of the two
houses were held, but without any agree.
neut being reached. The bill was thus
lost because Republican Senate refused
10 agree 10 reduction Of the army and in
sisted upon the right of the President to
use the troops in the Southern States for
political purposes. For eight years the
army was used by Grant to pull down hon
est and set up fraudulent governments in
the South. ADemocratic House Of Repre-
sentatives decided that this business must
stop, but Republican Senate stubbornly
insisted upon n continuance of the old Or
der Of things. Even Grant himself, before
he went out of Office, repeatedly declared
that the country was tired of seeing tie

and confidence Of the people. The money
Necessary 10 maintain the army was appro-
priated year ago up to the Both of next
June, beyond which date no funds can be
drawn from the treasury to pay the troops
without new appropriation bill. The
people, understanding the position taken
10y the Senate on this question, will fix the
responsibility for holding an extra session
where it properly belongs.

The Souate Of the United States, which
met in extra session on the 5th of March,
adjourned finally on last Saturday. It's
time was almost entirely occupied in con-
filming nominations for postmasters, L. S.
narshals, Indian agents, collectors of Gus
toms, etc. No foreign ministers were ap-
pointed, nor was a successor to Judge Da-
Wis nominated as one of the Justices of the
Supreme Court. Kellogg confidently ex-
pected TO De admitted to seat in the Sen.
ate to fill one of the vacancies from Louisi-
ana, and Morton, chairman of the Commit
tee on Privileges and Elections, succeeded
IN getting a majority of the committee
(ali Republicans of course) to decide that

the present at least was entitled to be
sworn in. lie intended to present the re-
port TO the Senate on the following day
and force vote on it. When he entered
the Senate chamber, however, with that
intention, he discovered to his utter amaze
ment that. owing to the absence of four or
five Republ c,n Senators from sickness and
other causes, the Democrats, for the first
time in sixteen years, were in a majority
iu that body. aud that if he made his re-
port it would certainly be voted down.
The report was therefore not presented
and Kellogg's case WAS suspended until
the meeting of the Senate next December.

W HETHER there are more brains in .he
Republican party in Ohio than in the same
party in Pennsylvania, or whether the rad
ical politicians in the former State are
more skilful and adj oft than the r brethren
in the Keystone State, or fIom whatever
cause, it is certain that even before the
fraudulent accession of Hayes to the Pres
idercy, Ohio achieved a wonderful success
in obtaining very large share of impor-
tact pubic Offices. She now has the Pres
ident, de .factd Sherman, General of the
Army Waite, Chief Justice of the Su-
pieme Court Of the United States; Swayne,

da ; Bingham, Minister to Japan Potts,
Governor of Montana Territory and last,
but not least, John Sherman, Secretary of

cannot just now remember their names,
nor the positions they fill. The Republi-
cans of Pennsylvania were literally outla W.

an unknown man, Secretary of the Navy,
but being unfit for the place he soon re-
signed, aud a few months before the end
of his term he appointed Simon Cameron s
son, j. Don Cameron, Secretary of War.
Hayes has followed in the footsteps of
Grant so far as the Republican leaders of
this State are concerned He was right in
not retaining young Cameron in his Cabin
ct, but there are other Republicans in
Pennsylvania who are more competent for
cabinet honors than the son of Simon. 1t
is quite natural therefore, that the leaders
OF the Hayes party in this State should
feel indignant at being thus sighted and
given the cold shoulder by Hayes, after
having given i'm her tpenty-,,ine electoral
votes.
