Governor Williams, days before Mr. Mortons
death. made indecent haste to say that ne
should bestow the Office upon Mr.. VOORHEES,,
pending the meeting of the Legislature, when
is expected to confirm the appointment. PROD
ably no man has done harder work for the In
diana Democracy than Daniel W. voorhees,
He has been a favorite stump orator Tor
twenty years but although his sonorous
voice has sounded across the prairies at
almost every crossroads from Lake Michigan
to the Ohio River, we fail to remember single
statesmanike utterance in his many speeches.
He is a good partisan orator for a western
crowd. and that is all. He served two terms In
Congress during the war and part of term
afterward, and acted with what was known at
the time as the Copperhead wing OF his party.
In 1872, however, he shook of his
Bourbonism long enough to give hearty sup
port to Horace Greeley. His financial notions,
which are of more importance now than his
record on the dead issues of the war and OF
reconstruction, have always adapted them
selves to prevalent Democratic opinion in the
longitude of the Wabash. IN other words, they
are the worst current in any part OF the
country.

The greatest fraud ever committed at an
election in this State was the conspiracy by which
Tweed and his accomplices reversed the verdict
of the polls in 1868, and in spite of a great
popular majority for General Grant and the
other Republican nominees turned the whole
State over to the Democracy. He has told us
something recently about the way in which it
WAS done. The democratic nOtabilities"
met with him ut the Metropolitan Hotel
on the evening of election-day, and to-
gether they arranged the scheme. To keep
possession of the telegraph wires while
the crime was preparing, they resolved to tel
egraph the whole Bible, from beginning to
end-most Of them, as Tweed remarked, hay

TO make A noble defence to make of
man who could not have been nominated
without the unfagglng support of the Canal
Ring, and who, if elected, will be under politi-
cal obligations to many of the worst men in
the State! And it looks very much as II his
friends were right He seems to have adopted
n fraudulent practice because he found that
others had done so before him. While he
was presiding officer of the Senate he
made Tweed, Jarvis Lord and Harry Genet
chairmen of the three most important commit
tees, though the characters of these men were
lust rs well known to him as to the rest OF
the people of the State. When he was the
presiding officer of the Canal Board, fraud
ulent contracts were let, and fraudulent awards
were made. Just as they had been made and
let before. His vote was steadily on the side
of the contractor. Should he become Sec
rotary of State, and again member
of the Canal Board, have we any guar
antee that the frmness of rectitude and
the nice sense of honor which were wanting
before will suddenly develop themselves7 II
he was weak before, may he not be weak
now Could he disregard the wishes OF the
men who nominated and elected him 7 By the
argument of his friends it would seem not.
Their own apologies show him to be mentally
unfit, and his own acts show him to be NOR
ally unfit for any Office in the gift of the

SENATOR NORTON md HIS SUCCESSOR.

SENATOR MORTON And HIS SUCCESSOR.
The mage devoted to Senator Morton, in the
history of the United States, which Will be
written a century hence, will dwell most on
two points in his careeT-the energy with
which he defended the cause of the Union
during the Civil War, and the zeal and con-
stancy with which he advocated the right of
suffrage for the blacks after the war closed.
The prominent place he won in political af-
fairs was due to his vigOr and steadfastness
In handling the great dominant issues of his
day. lie abandoned minor questions to other
men. Never but once did he diverge from
this course, and then he failed to make any
considerable impression on the public mind.
That was when he tried to be an authority on
questions of currency and finance.
In one sense, 1t may be said that he died in
the fullness of his political career. The period
of legislation devoted to securing the frdits of
the war closed with the end Of President
Grants Administration. Senator Morton saw
nearly every measure for that great purpose
which he advocated placed upon the statute
book He saw, too, the earnest acceptance, by
the mass of the Southern people, of the
Amendments which make the Constitu-
ton the bulwark of Liberty, Equal Rights
and Nationality. Thus the great work
of his life came to fruiton before he passed
away. Perhaps he would have grappled sue
cessfully with the new questions OF the future
had his life been spared, but only in rare in
stances is a statesman great in two separate
eras of n cOuntry's history. His death now
closes symmetrical, harmonious and success
ful career.
1t is sad to think that the place Of the In
diana Senator. who gave distinction to his
State and shaped the large affairs of the ma
ton, is " be filed by mere demagogae.

The approaching sege OF S ilistria widen
the field of military operations. Since the
early days of the war, General zimmerman
has renamed with a strong army at Cerna-
voda, with the view of guarding the DObrudja,
and holding the Turkish forces at Narna,
Shumla and Sihstria in check. But as he h S
no attack to apprehend from the Dobrudja,
which is clear of Turks and imprachcable Tor
Winter warfare, he doubtless deems this a
good time to attack Silistra-One of the
strongest angles of the quadrateral. In the
last war the fortress made a heroic defence,
having, with garrison of less than $4,000
men, successfully resisted 10000 Russians,
VINO besieged it for forty-1ive days with
desperate tcnacity. The garrison is now
declared to be in admirable condition,
while the defences are exceedingly strong
and fully armed. The fortress ought, I'M
der these circumstances, to make stub
born resistance. but it is doubtful if it can
hold out against the powerful artillery with
which the Russians are now equipped.

was remarkable for the rpdity with which 1t
travelled from Texas, through the Ohio Valley
and upward toward the st. Lawrence, max
ing the whole distance inside of forty eight
hours Along its track the violence OF the
wind was more striking than the amount
of rainfall. Clearing weather followed
almost Immediately upon the passage of the
storm, leaving a singularly pure and brilliant

them from being as effective as usual. In this

have been done.
