A Pennsylvania Radical on What is in

Especial 10 Baltimore SUM-

WASHINGTON, July 8.--0ne of the most
active and influential Ofthe Pennsylvania
radical Republicans who was in Wash
ington yesterday said that things would
soon be made very lively for the Presi-
dent. He said that his side intend TO fur
hish good deal of the campaign materi-
al to the Democrats in the States where
elections are to come off this fall. He
said that lithographic copies by the ton
would be made Of the letters written by
Governor Hayes duringth the last campaign
including the letters in which be asked
for money 10 carry on the campaign ex-
penses, and also letters written by him
enclosing copies of his photograph to
people in different parts Of the country.
This gentleman also said that the radical
Republicans were determined to probe
the Louisiana matter to the bottom, that
they intended to secure q copy Of the
agreement made between the Louisiana
conservatives on one side and Stanley
Matthews and others acting for President
Hayes on the other side. This agreement
was and Is still supposed TO be in the pos
session Of Major Burke, who was here
as the accredited agent Of the Nichols

R. q. RICHARDS, of Jefferson county,
received the nomination for State Sena-
tor at the recent Senatorial Convention
held at New Lisbon. Mr.. Richards is the
same fellow that made speech in favor
of the county seat enabling act, carrying
the seat of justice from Garfield to
youngstown in 1874, in the Ohio Legis-
laiure, for which he received 800 from
Youngstown parties. It's good thing
for Mr. R. that he don't want any votes
from Garfield and the southern part Of
Mahoning county to elect him, for if he
did he would be deceived. Garfield Dis

Why cannot our Republican friends in
that district nominate fellow who holds
himself worth more thar 500? BE is

DECREASE in national debt during June
So, ,229, 1879; decrease during the fiscal year,
S39, ,7S1 ,l2l. So says the statement. But
the statement saith not how far this ap.
parent decrease is due to turning the lar
ger part of the Geneva award into the
treasury instead of paying it over to the
claimants for whom it was intended, nor
how far it is due to emitting from the
statement just claims now past due. Of
course it is not practicable to include all
these things in the monthly statements,
but it ought to be practicable to make a
brief explanation.

Rio Grande, andtheir capture; I'd. Under

party or administration in Mexico which

His speech is a most artful assault
upon the Administration, and at the same
time aiming to revive old animosities
between North and South by Haunting
the bloody flag. He says; I believe
chat the men who in battle and in coun-
ell saved the Union should govern it,
Il believe that the men who for four
years sought the life Ofthe nation should
not be entrusted with its supreme con-
troll He then denounces State allegi-

Mexican territory; preferring, rather,
Canada. He was loudly applauded at
the close.

GEN. MATA (sent by President Diaz to
Washington to claim recognition as minis
ter from the government of Mexico)
says that Mexico SIS as peaceful as could
''be expected after such revolution as
"that which placed Senor Diaz in the
PRESIDENCY" The statement of General
Mata is plausible. Whatever state of an
archy and turbulence may prevail, that
country is as peaceful as could be ex-
pected." Its normal condition for the
last fifty years has been one of turbulence
and anarchy.

THE Alliance Reuiew and most Hayes
papers hereabouts are in favor of restor-
ing the silver dollar. These postofice
organs have no word to say in condem-
nation of the party and its leaders who
abolished "the silver dollar of the dad.

his dynasty were swinging things so

A DEpUTAT1oN of workingmen called
on Grant in London last week, made
some friendly speeches at him, and re-
ceived one in return. The dignity of Ia
Dor was duly aired. The ex-Presideilt
told his hearers, in the set phrases of the
Fourth of July orators, that whatever Of
"there is greatness in the United States,
"as indeed in any other country, is due
to labor" that without labor there
would be no government or leading class
and nothing to preserve" and SO on, clo-
sing with an assurance that he has re.
ceived no token of esteem from any class
since his arrival in England which has
given him more pleasure. The deputa-
ton took in these assurances, as in duty
bound, with every manifestation of pleas
ure, and retired in good order, to medi-
tate on the ready facility in lying that
may be secured in the course Of eight
years Of political life in America.

An Iowa Colony Coming to the
Teche.
IAttakapas Registsr.I

Messrs. n. Caple and S. Dixon of
Monroe, Iowa, were in Morgan City
.on Tuesday last and gave US a call.
They brought good tidings from afar.
As agents for number of Northern
families they have taken a journey
through the South, and are about to
return and make report of the won
sderful attractions it offers to the inn
migrant. They came to the Teehe,
and followed it up as high as the viii
lage of New Iberia, and were delighted
with what they saw. they declare
the Teche section to be the finest Wis
ited in their journeyings, and with it
have ended their search. Negotiations
for land are under way, and in the
fall they hope to escort small colony
here to occupy it.
What more practical evidence could
be offered of the truth of the repeated
statements of the superior induce
ments of the Teche country to the
immigrant2 The colony will be well
coined on its arrival, and the door is
open to all comers- Come along, by
ones, twos or twenties and try the
virtues of our healthy cline and boun-
teous soil.

Speaking of a street disturbance in
New Orleans, last week, the Democrat
says:
If this is to be tolerated in the most prom
inent thorou ghfares, and in broad daylight,
If is about time that the police force be Ia
creased to Il regiment or two.
Then it seems that the Radicals
knew better what police force was re-
onired than the new Reformers do.
The latter, in due aristrocratic style,
commenced their retrenchment bust
ness at the wrong end. If they had
cut down more of the exorbitant sal
aries of the "big- bugs instead ol
turning poor policemen and school
teachers out of employment, their re-
form would liave been more like ref
ormation.-Amite Independent.
