WASHINGTON CLIPS.
A Law.

Law.
Washington, Feb. 16.-The President
has approved the bill providing for the
deficiency in the appropriation for rpublic
printing and binding, which reduces the
composition of compositors from go to 30
cents per 1000 ems, and 40 cents an hour
for time work.
Reducing the Army.
Washington, Feb. 16. - The House
Committee on Military Affairs to-day
voted to recommend the passage of the
bill offered by Mr.. Banning, providing
that there shall be no new enlistments
in the army until the force of enlisted
men has been reduced to 10000, and re-
quiring the Secretary of War to reduce
the number of cavalry regiments to eight

Senator KClleys Statement.
Washington, Feb. Ex-senator Kelley
states in regard to his Endorsement of the
cipher dispm'ches sent by j. H. N. Pat
rick, on the % h OF November, to Colonel
w. II. Pelton, that lie was totally unaware
Of its containing proposition for the
purchase of Republican eleCtor, He
says Patrick came to him, and stated that
he had prepared a cipher telegram to the
Secretary of the National Democratic
Committee, asking the latter to place
$4,000 to his credit for the purpose of
paying lawyers fees and other necessary
expenses connected with the anticipated
litigation concerning the issuance of the
Governors certificate. Patrick request
ed him to endorse this telegram, because
he Kelley was known to the National
Democratic Committee, and it was desi-
rable to secure prompt action. Senator
Kelley says he could not of course read
the cipher, and accepting Patrick's state
ment OF its meaning, endorsed it without
hesitation, upon the foregoing assurance
as to its contents. The Senator also
states that after Patrick left Oregon, lie
[ Kelley earnestly endeavored to get
money sent from New York to pay the
lawyers who had been retained, and as
it did not come In time, he himself rails
ed $500 on his own note; $4,000 of
which he paid to Hill, Thompson and
Derham, the lawyers, and the remaining
5000 were devoted to paying the expenses
of bringing Laswell, one Of the Demo-
cratic electors, to Salem, as it was then
thought he had obtained higher vote
than Cronin. The Senator says that so
far as he knows, ne person ever approach
ed the Republican electors with any cor
rupt propositions,

THE EASTERN QUESTION.


The Russian Army In Readiness to Move.
Kishenef, Feb. 15.-The Russian army
here, and ready to move against the
Turks, numbers 10000 infantry, 5000
cavalry and 428 guns, which with the
two corps at Odessa, would make the to-
tai of the army of advance 100000, in
fantry, 10000 cavalry and 720 guns. A
thousand horses have been bought for
the train bridge lying here, which is Ca
pable of passing the whole army over the
Danube in day. There are also thirteen
huge steam launches, two large barges,
seven smaller boats, and masses of other
things, even to the smallest detail. Mo-
biization has proceeded so satisfactorily
that within month four army corps
could have crossed the Pruth.
SerVla Abandoned by Russia.
Belgrade, February 15.-Servia's appeal
for advice from Russia remains unan-
swered. 1t is surmised the Servians have
been abandoned by Russia as the price
of Austrian acquiescence or cooperation
in Russa's policy, because if Servia is
qUieted the great cause of restlessness
among the Savs in Hungary would be
removed. 1t is probable Russia will not
adopt similar course towards Montene-
gro, but will put her forward as the cham
pion of Turkish Christians.

A VAGUE ENGLISH SCANDAL.

One story circulated in the papers is
only too we'll authenticated. 1t relates
to gentleman in Her Majesty's house
hold and one or two young ladies'" The
offender is the Hon. Spencer Lyttleton,
and the fashionable news" writers have
been under great obligations to him for
getting himself into scrape which has
cost him both public and social position.

that the election Of President Hayes was
void, and pledges himself to oppose its
every act, he admits the alibustezs to have
been right, and admits that he was poll
teal poltroon in refusing to follow
them. We find, however, all the pieces
of the iointed serpent in place, reunited,
as flexible, as sinuous, as venomous as
ever. Let not the Democracy entertain
a hope that the deliberations of the Re-
publican party mean anything more than
q consultation as to the best means of
brnising the head of the jointed serpent
of Democracy. When a party which
has abandoned every principle con re-
unite upon the most forlorn hope of spoil
or the most vindictive hatred there
need be no fear that difference as to the
best mode of defending life and prin-
ciples against such treacherous malignity
will divide or dissolve the Republican
party.

GREAT PERSONAL RISK.
The PicdVune remarks:

The Picdyl11e remarks:
The REPUBLICAN, insists that the Repub-
liean cause was upheld "at great personal
risk" by the ballot box suffers in L luisiana,
and that they are entitled to much credit
therefor.
The REPUBLICAN never insisted that the
ballot box suffers incurred any risk of
much consequence. 1t is notorious that
few or none of them were ever punished
at all. The personal risk of which we
complain occurred days, and even weeks
before the election, before it was possible
to stuff ballot boxes, for the reason that
they had not yet been brought out As
Nasty quantity puts it, negroes "who
leaned de6antly on their hoes" in the cot
ton field were shot BY gangs of mounted
men passing along the highways. The
poor victims probably never saw bsllot
box, and most assuredly never stuffed
one. If the Democratic rough riders had
confined their attentions to ballot box
suffers, and persons actually criminal,
we should have been more than satisfied,
Were all this class of persons to receive
their deserts there would be at once a
serious loss in the Democratic vote.
We charge that in pursuance Of deliber-
ate Democratic policy, persons innocent
Of any offense known to the law have been
most outrageousIy abused, while those
guilty Of election frauds wers protected
with the whole strength of the party.
