While the action of the House in not inter-
posing obstacles to proceeding with the count
of the electoral votes will quiet the fears OF
many who anticipated tibustering, the posi-
bilty of an attempt to steal the Presidency IN
this way seems to be still uppeImost in Wash
ington gossip. The progress made in the
counting merely indicates that the Democrats
have allowed their next case to he called.
That decided against them, they have only
the forlOrn hope of Oregon left. If these
two States should consume so much
time as to bring near the Fourth
of March, we shall be better able to tell the
nerve of the party under temptation, when
few days or even a few hours filibustering
NAV give them another chance at the Presi-
dency. Such men as Senator Bayard indlg-
rantly repudiate the idea, but men of diff
ferent stamp rule in the Democratic House.
Even these hot-headed partisans can probably
be trusted however, TO foresee the fate WHICH
would befall the party that should plunge the
country into the horrors of another Presidential
campaign.

In the present stage of the Eastern Question
the British Liberal leaders arc likely to meet
with disastrous defeat if they strive to COM
nit Parliament to n cOercivc policy against
Turkey. The British people cmphatically dis
approved the tacit support which the Turks
received from Sir Henry Elliot, but they were
not disposed to go to war to secure autonomy
for Herzegovina or redress for the bulgarian
atrocities. Conservatives and many Liberals
consider that the Government made amends at
the Conference for its shortcomings, and they
are unprepared to recommend angry demon
STATIONS against Turkey, unless it is under
stood that their failure shall be followed by
war. Indeed were it not for the traditional
jealousy of Russia, the British taxpayer would
feel totally Indifferent to Servian wrongs or
rights.

Mr.. Carr, of Indiana, rattles around in the
chair of Speaker Kerr in way that his Dem
Ocratic colleagues must find most exasperatlng
The scoldng he gave them yesterday was richly
deserved, and seems to have been thoroughly
appreciated. Never were men more completely
estopped from grumbling than the Democrats
in Congress at the present time, and Mr.. Cars
rough reminder of that fact ought not TO De
without weight. To be sure, his denunciations
of the majority for carrying the COMPROMISE
bill, not because it was unconstitutional but
because he considered it betrayal OF Demo
cratic interests, show that he Is not overburdened
with common sense, but he has enough OF 1t,
nevertheless, to make him conspicuous IL the

Mr.. Mills Of Texas, who insisted on the read

Mr.. Martin Farquhar Upper is a man into whom
impressions soak slowly and with difficulty. In
literature, he is sublimely untouched by all infu-
ences which have grown into activity since his first
success the didactic hydrates in which his mind
was stepped seem to have deposited silicates upon
its surface as fossil bones sometimes preserved
in caverns. He Is living anachronsm writing
for past generation. He has been visiting the
South for weeks past, and his inner conscious
ness at last begins to take notice of the state OF
affairs there not as it is now but il about 25
years ago. In token thereof he has written poem
"TO the South" containing precisely the same
apologies for Slavery and defense of the system az
were then so current. To be sure, the old song il
rugged out with new and expensive rhymes, and
moves to tune which cannot be adequately rem
dered by any other instrument than the banjo That
it will be composed and sung, we cannot doubt: in
fact. it might be sung and danced at the same tiTe
Fancy a company of bulldozers and colored Demo
Gratis with Mr. Upper at their head, pigeon-wnging
through the streets Of Charleston and singing:
Doubtless there had been some hardshps ami cruess

no other living poet could have written this stanza

There is another whisky war on foot not in

The Democrats have announced their programme
in the Louisiana They will contend 81 That
there was no returning board in that State the body
who assumed to count the votes being an irregular
and unlawful aSsemblage, with no powers or jurs
diction 2 That the returning board, even if had
been legally constituted had no authority TO canvass
the votes for Presidential electors, this power being
specially vested by the law of 1870 in other officials
81 That even if Mr. Wells and his peers had been
the lawful board whose duty it was to count the
electoral vote, there such vote before them,
to canvass were not the returns of the supervisors
as By the law prescribed. but the returns of the
commissioners. al That even if the proper returns
had been before the proper officials the board had
no ground in law for Exercising judicial func-
TONS" because the specific prelminaries for such
cases provided had not been complied WITH either in
form or spirit ~ That even If all antecedent con-
dtions had been legally fulfilled returning board
could under the most elastic Interpretation OF the
law reject enough ballots to give the Hayes electoral
ticket majority III the State. 6 That the law it
self is plainly unconstitutional. "a That several Of
the electors, even if they had been appointed in
legal form and with unquestioned official sanction,
are ineligible under the Constitution of the United
States In addition TO the above. Mr.. Tilden's law
yers have several other strong positions to fall back
upon; but it is believed by competent judges that
if all these points established the seven Demo-
cratic members of the Tribunal will vote unsni-
mously against counting the electoral vote of Louis
ana for Gov. Hayes.

Two important and significant changes will
be made if France sends the Duo Decazes as
ambassador to st. Petersburg, and Great
Britain transfers Sir Edward Thornton from
Washington to Constantinoplo. Sir Edwards
transition from the comparative quiet OF our
capital to the grave duties which devolve on
a Minister to the Porte will of course depend
upon the British Governments revoking the
step it took, in common with the other Powers,
when it directed Sir Henry Elliot to take leave
of the Sultan and place the Embassy in the
hands of Charge d'Affaires. While the Turks
continue in their present obstinate mood no
compromise on this point seems possible.

Defeated at the polls the cable "fusionists"
have transferred the contest to a London law
court, where it is sought to compel the Direct
Company to carry out Mr.. Pender's reso-
luton appointing a committee to consider
the expediency of amalgamation. Mean
time the Anglo American Company de-
clares that it will give no quarter if its
rival persists in serving the public at the
rates which have reduced its dividends so
largely. Viscount Monck, who makes this
threat, ought to be wise in time. When
company with $27,OOO,OOO capital and four
cables threatens to destroy one with only
&C, 1000, 900 and single cable, public senti-
ment is likely to be strongly aroused on the
weaker side.

earthquakes, delivered by Prot. lie Conte, he

time the subject possesses more than ordinary
interest, in connection with the eruption now

tends To strengthen it. Twice We have seen
the smoke clouds over the crater vivid with

On the latter occasion, particularly, ii attract

miles of the metropolis, even in the warmest

KAwAIHAE,

The next point in the voyage, is the port of
entry for the Waimea and Hamakua districts.
Its freight and passenger traffic was formerly
much larger than now, Kohala having lately
drawn of its surplus population and capital.
The Waimea Grazing Company, which turn
out fifty or sixty thousand pounds of wool, and
the Messrs. Parker who deal largely in cattle
and other stock, are the principal firms The
latter have broken ground for sugar planta-
ton in the village of Waimea, and from one
hundred to two hundred acres of ground will
be plowed and planted by August of this year.
If necessary, irrigation will be introduced, and
water viii be brought for this purpose from
the Kohala mountains Mr. VIM Mossman, of
Wailuku, is interested in this enterprise with
the Messrs. Parker.
Between Kawaihae and Kailua rugged and
barren shore stretches for thirty or forty
miles, without a single village, and but few
hamlets occupied by fishermen The steamer
generally passes along here during the night,
and nothing of interest Is lost by tourists, if
asleep.
KAILUA,
The Northern port Of the district of Kona, is
generally approached by the steamer early in
the morning. Several large stone and frame
buildings give it an attractive appearance
from the sea, but on nearer approach they are
found to be old and partially dilapidated. The
