firmly administering the State govern

THE SITUATION.

crday, on the compromise question,
proposed by the joint congressional
committee, was mastery effort. The
corst,u:ioaality OF the proposition was
clearly stated and his argument was
thoroughly convincing.
Mr.. Morrison, the chairman of the
House Louisiana investigating commit
Zee, has returned TO Washington, He
declines 10 be interviewed, but intimates
that there is no doubt but that the demo-
cratic State and presidential tickets were
honestly and fairly elected. 1t is likely
that the radical bull-dozers will have
their crooked ways made straight in
way that will not be pleasant.
And Boutwell, has gone by tie board,
He was too radical even for radical
Massachusetts, GrantiSm and return
ing boards did the business. Selah
The recount of the Florida electoral
vote, ordered by the Legislature, has
resulted in the success Of the ailden
Electors by Oh majority. Now for
radical howl about intimidation and
fraud!
Morton limps about the Senate cham
Der, aud lifts up bis voice and howls
about the compromise. Whatever Nor
ton opposes, decent men are wont to
favor.
All the dirty workers of the radical
camp, and all the petty office holders,
are opposed to the congressional COM
promise. Per contra, all the brains and
all the dccency favor it, and it is going
to pass all the same.
The political situation in South Car
DINA and Louisiana remains unchanged.
Kellogg, the miserable carpet, bag
scamp who, as Governor of Louisiana,
has gained such unenviable notoriety, is
on his ay to Washington TO claim a
seat in the Senate from that State. 1t
is TO be hoped that he will share the
fate OF the negro Pinchbaek.
The radicals are becoming desperate.
Suit has been brought against MIR. Til
den to recover Sl50,0O0, which 1t is al
legged he owes the government as bal
ance of income tax. This is misera-
ble party dodge, unworthy OF notice,
and will prove boomerang to the rad
ieas.
Public sentiment is daily growing
stronger in favor of the congressional
compromise, and from all sections OF
the country, word comes that the pas
sage of the bill will assure peace and
the return of prosperity.
= Senator Frelinghuysen, of New Jer-
sey, although believing that MIR. Hayes
has been elected, supports the compro-
mise Senator Sherman opposes 1t, and
resorts TO Parliamentary trickery to de
feat it.
Gen. Logan has not yet been re cleo
ted to the U. S. Senate by the Illinois
Legislature, He hangs around the lob
Il
bies, button holipg the members to the
disgust of the decent portion OF them,
aud they have given him notice that
his place is in Washington. I. 5. Lo,
gan has been "scooped.
w. 3. Nash, colored republican State
Senator in South Carolina, and Presi-
Dental elcctor, says the democrats at
tempted to bride him to vote for the
presidential electors. He says he retus-
ed $4,000 cash and the promise OF
$4,000 more. There's richness for

Belchertown was highly excited last
week over an almost tragical wedding of
Amherst parties, who spell their names
Fry and Boil, who came near-getting into
a stew. The girls father didn't want her
to marry the man, and so the latter took
her to the place where her sister was EN-
ployed till the wedding could be arranged.
The sister, however, was opposed to the
match, being attacked by the green-eyed
NOR ster, because the same fellow had
previously made love to her, and so she
locked the bride expectant into her
room. After nights incarceration she
jumped from the window and Joined her
lover at the hotel. The clerk of the house
drove off furiously for clergyman, and
the Methodist pastor was just beginning
the ceremony when the sister appeared at
the window to forbid the bans. The GER
tifcate was all right, however, and the
minister concluded to 60 on, but In his
excitement he read most of the baptismal
service, beginning: Whereas all men
are born in sin,'' and repeated the names
of the couple he last married. The clerk
held the door so the sister couldn't come
in. On Sunday the girls father came to
the church door and called the minister
from his Sunday-School class to demand
of him why he married his daughter, at
the. same time admitting her legal age.
Meanwhile the groom has lost his place
at Amherst, and left for parts unknown,
to the grief Of lis creditors. Id
