WILMINGTON, March ii, 1877:
OUR ONLY SAFETY.

1t is high time TO agitate the repeal all
laws, which authorize Federal interference
at the elections in the States. The claim,
says the ''Day," that the Federal Govern
ment has the right to interfere in the cleo
ton of Congressman. and Presidential
Electors, because they are United States
officers, is untenable. 1t is for the States
to elect their own Senators, and for the peo-
ole of the States to elect their own Repre-
sentatives. IT. after the election, there is
any evidence or allegation OF fraud, the
Senate or House has the power 10 settle
the question, as all legislative bodies have
in su ch cases, and no other remedy is ne
cessary. The interference of marshals, and
other Federal officials at our elections is
offensive and wrong. What should we
think if United States officers were found
in our legislatures, interfering with the
election Of Senators? They have just as
much right to be there as at our election
polls. As to Presidential electors, they
are State officers, and after being elected,
and after meeting and making up their re-
turn, Congress has no right, according to
the late memorable decision, to 60 behind
their certificate. This decision was pro-
per and pointed vindication Of State
Rights in this respect, and it applies to the
election of congressman, which belongs
entirely TO the States, as much as the cleo
ton of their Governors. Even the law o.
Congress relative to districting the States
is an impertinence. The people of the
States have constitutional right to elect
their Congressman by general ticket, ifthey
choose. And the late law Of Congress pre-
scribing the mode by which the State LIE
gislatures shall elect United States Sena-
tors is another impertinence. The Legis
latures have the sole right to determine il
what manner Senators shall be chosen
All the acts Of Congress for interfering
with our State elections are wrong, ant
should be repealed. Let us enjoy sucl
State Rights as are proper and just, ant
undeniably guaranteed by the Constitu'
ton,

Allegheny Mail: The United States
government is nov using the Indians
to fight Iadians-an excellent plan
and it is to be hoped that the next con
gress will command that all tho Indians
shall be placed in control OF the war de-
partmsnt. The cheapest and most effec-
tive way to ~civilize savages is to. enlist all
the able-bodieds males as soldiers, and
thus accpst0m them to tho regular Aab-
its, cleanliness and settled industry which
can be enforced by military rules, and in
NJ ether way 50 we'll. To put a savage
man fairly on the way toward civilization
all his habits have to be changed; and to
accomplish this no method is so effective
% the quiet but unceasing pressure of mil
itary discipline.
The idea is a good one, though perhaps
not very christianlike. Put guns in their
hands and let them exterminate each
other. Teach them habits of industry and
the use of soap and water and they viii
speedily become extinct. The Indian
problem is solved.

the name OF Maria Johnson, whose earthly life

East Cambridge, Mass, at the age of about 20
years. Miss johnson was native of Hallowell,

she was gentle in spirit, unobtrusive in manner,

all the years of her physical suffering, which at
