SIR John Lintorn Arabin Sim
mons, K. G. B., who is mentioned in
military circles in England as the
coming man" in case of great Flu
ropean war, is young man for a
British lieutenant General. He was
born in 1921, served fer some years
in Canada, and went through the
whole Dahubian campaign Of 1854
with Omar Pasba and the Turkish
army as British Commissioner. He
served through the whole seige of
Sebastopol, and afterwards in Asia
Minor, at the passage Of the INCUR,
drove in the right wing Of the Rus
sien army, and in the opinion of
Omar Pasha decided the victory of
that day. He served afterwards as
British Commissioners on the Inter-
national Commission to decide the
Turco-Russian boundary in ASIA
He is therefore thoroughly familiar
with the seat Of war as we'll in Asia
as in Europe.

The Boss head is yet level on his side

following dispatch to Brother Blaine:
The overthrow Of the lawful State
government was appropriately celebra-
ted to-day. Detachments Of the army
and navy of the United States partici-
pated, with the White Leaguers Of Ala
bama and Louisiana in this Celebration
of Democratic success. Did poetic JUS
tice require that the honors of this
achievement should be thus equally d.
vided in the absence Of the commission ?

that United States interference will not
be required hereafter.

bits of boxes, of all shades and sizes,
dainty fragments of ribbon, and scraps
of lace, foamy ruffles, velvet things for

pieces of jewelry, fans, things that no
man knows the names of-all sorts of

The Usurped Powers Of MIR. Hayes.
THE TRUE INWARDNEss OF PosTpoNING
THE EXTRA SESSION.

The postpOnement of the extra ses-
sion of Congress till October was car
ried in the face of the actual business
interests of the country, in view of po-
litical contingencies the President did
not care to meet. Notwithstanding ur.
gent reasons for calling the extra ses-
sion of Congress at once, the President
took counsel of his prudence and push
ed the evil day as far as possible, be-
cause unwilling to face an opposition
which may have proved too powerful,
and at any rate would have proved ex-
ceedingly troublesome. The Demo
Gratis hold the House, and need less
than a half dozen votes to control the
Senate, and there are disaffected Re-
publicans enough to unite with the
Democrats and give them actual con-
troll of Congress and block the Admin
istration.
1t is well known that there are Dem
ocrats who are determined if possible
to push their opposition beyond meas
ures of public policy to an inquiry into
the title of the President to his Office;
and it is impossible to tell what such
an inquisition might lead to, save that
it would prove prejudicial to the bust.
ness interests of the country in the
highest degree. The President was
obviously frightened away from his
original design by these political con-
siderations. The postponement was q
shrewd stroke of policy on his part,
but it was nevertheless q sacrifice OF
solid business interests to q political
exigeuey, and one which brings ont
the effects Of our present system OF
government in strong colors. There
were but two courses open to the Pres
tdent under the Constitution-he could
either disband the army or call an ex-
ira session of Congress to make provi
sion for its support. He does neither

But the two most important branch
ches of the Government are virtually

Congress is left free to pull in the 9th
err, and the business of the country is
torn asunder between the two. This
defect ought to be remedied by some
provision through which these two

shall be entirely harmonized. Either
the country should have a constitution
that meets its actual wants or none al
