Judge Hilton, of New York, the trus-
tee under the late A. T. Stewards will, is
obtaining for himself an odious notoriety
by his recent order to the managers of
the Grand Union Hotel, at Saratoga,
which he controls, forbidding them to
entertain as guests any Jews during the
present season. The Grand Union Hotel
was built by Mr.. Stewart at cost of
100000, and is one of the finest hotels
in the world. Last season it was largely
attended during the recreation season by
wealthy Jewish families, and last week
Mr.. Jos. Seligman, leading banker of
Wall Street and member of the Syndi-
cate to place American securities, was
refused accommodation under Judge
Hilton's directions for himself or family
at this Hotel. The action was no doubt
prompted by the belief that this discrimi-
nation would be pleasing to the Gentle
world, but we imagine the mistake will
be very soon realized. 1t is biggoted
and narrow minded act, of which any
man in Christian community should
be ashamed: To discriminate against
men in public hotels because Of their re-
ligious opinions, is simply contemplate.
There is just as much reason for the ex-
clusion of Catholics, Baptists, Metho-
dists, Presbyterians, or any other de-
nomination from which proprietor or
his guests may differ. There are as per-
feet gentlemen among the Jews as can
be found in any other sect, and to dis
criminate against a whole class cannot
meet public appreciation. No one would
object to the exclusion fsuch Jews as
might make themselves personally OBJ
noxious, but common sense, common
Justice, we might say common humanity,
demands that Jews and Gentiles should
be placed upon the same footing so far
as public accommodations are concerned.
We predict that the result of Judge Hill
toms experiment will be such as to pre-
vent any imitation of his course.

Another serious Indian uprising has
occurred in the Western portion of
Oregon and the Territory of Idaho, in
which the non-treaty Nez Perces red
men were the leaders. Col. Perry, with
one hundred Soldiers and some one hum
dred and fifty citizens and friendly In
dians, marched against them, and came
upon them in the Camas Prairie, at the
head of White Bird Canon, where the
troops dismounted and left about twenty
men to hold horses. These, seeing that
the Indians were getting the best of the
fight, fed precipitately, and left the
horses to roam over the fields. The In
dians were victorious, and the slaughter
Of citizens and soldiers was very great.
The citizens are in state of complete
terror, and the military force out there
is inadequate to protect them from the
maraudipg bands of Indians who are
securing the country, killing the resi-
dents and plundering their property.
Arms and ammunition are being rapidly
forwarded, and the troops will be rein
forced to small extent, but the govern
ment is acting entirely too leisurely for
such an emergency. Enough soldiers
should be forwarded to the scene of
trouble tc subjugate completely these
wild savages, and protect the citizens of
our nation from danger, whether they be
inhabitants of the old States or of the
younger ones, or even Of the territories.
Continued leniency has encouraged
these uprisings, and it is time to teach
those unfriendly Indians that they will
be forced to keep upon their reservations,
and that they cannot keep this country
in continued commotion by their fire.

We regret to see, in Governor Hamp-
tons interview with a reporter Of the
New York Herald, that he has thought
6t to express a belief that the great bulk
ofour State debt is perfectly legitimate.
Without the Governor had personally ex-
amined the details of this debt he should
not express any opinion concerning its
nature, while the whole subject is under
going a judicial investigation which he
recommended. Such statements are cal
culated to influence the investigation.
What the people want now is the truth as
founded on the facts connected with the
creation of this debt, and not the off
hand belief of any person. The Cover
nor also makes mistake, We think, in
supposing Mr.. Hayes to be "a true man,
who understands the wants of the entire
country" No one can be a true man
who.accepts an Office which he knows to
have been stolen from the people. No
one can be true man who makes such
appointments as Stone for District At
torney, of Dunn and Brayton for Collcc-
tor of Internal Revenue in South Caro-
lima, or of Chamberlain for Solicitor of
the Treasury. Governor Hampton is
evidently over=gratifed for the removal
of the troops, which measure Mr.. Hayes
was starved into by the Democratic
House failing TO vote money to support
the army while it was engaged in
coercing sovereign States.

The election for members of the House
of Representatives from Charleston Coun-
ty took place on Tuesday last, and the
result is extremely doubtful, though it
will be ascertained very soon now. The
Republicans nominated portion of the
Democratic nominees on their ticket, and
the election of these men is certain. The
Democratic ticket is composed of Messrs
G. G.. Memminger, B. H. Rutledge, Ber.

nomination, and we hope it has carried
the County, thereby redeeming it for the
future from Radicalism.

A crisis in the affairs of France has
been reached. Cur readers are aware
that the government of this tickle nation
is at present Republican in form, and that
General McMahan is its President with q
term of Office which ends in 1880. AT
the time of his election the President was
an ardent advocate and champion of the
republic, and its destinies was considered
safe in his hands. Since his Inauguration,
however, he has pursued a course tending
to make the form Of government stronger
and more monarchial in its real charac-
ter, while he has kept up the professions
of zeal for the republic. In May last,
there was change in the cabinet, and a
ministry hostile to the present constitu-
ton was formed, under which the admin
istration made long stride towards abb
solutism. The liberty of the press was
destroyed in large measure. Editors
were fined and imprisoned for criticising
the President or his government, and
other acts hostile to the Republican
principles of the government were per-
formed. The Chamber of Deputies which
corresponds very much to our House Of
Representatives, on the 18th instant,
after spirited debate, by a vote of 1868
to 153 passed a resolution of censure on
the ministry as follows:
Whereas, the ministry formed May
18th under the presidency of the Duke
De Broglie was called to the direction OF
public affairs contrary to the law of the
majority, which is the leading principle
of parliamentary government, and has,
since assuming Office, avoided giving ex-
plantations to the national representa-
tiyes; whereas it has melted the admin
istration to crush universal suffrage by
all the means at its disposal; whereas it
represents merely coalition of monarch
lists, guided by inspirations from the cler-
ical party; wherea" it has allowed at,
tacks on the national representatives and
indictments to violation of law to pass
unpunished; wnereas, on all these
grounds, it imperils peace and order, and
disturbs business and general interests,
therefore the house declares that the
ministry does not possess the confidence
of the nation.
The result of this action under the laws
of France, requires vote Of the people,
and if they sustain the ministry no change
will be made, bat if they sustain the
Chamber of Deputies a new ministry will
have to be appointed. Upon this elec.
tion depends the fate of the French re-
public If McMal,,m is not condemned
like Louis Napoleon and like Napoleon
Bonaparte he will lead the people on by
degrees until he is proclaimed King OF
Emperor. The election will be ordered
soon, and by its result we may judge ot
the stability of the republic.

Judge Pierrepont, the United States
Minister to the st. James, seems, to use
a reaper's phrase, to be "cutting wide

the belief there, that he is immensely
wealthy. Describing the mode of the
American diplomats life, the London
World says: Receptions half the day,
and dinners and balls at night-when
will it all stop? It is enough to ruin an
Astor. Mr.. Pierrepont should moderate
his transports Of gratitude for hospitality

serious rise in the prices of poultry and
American beef, and his cook must be half
dead with work. There is no sleeping

not harrassed seriously by official cares,

man at their head, will most probably
also advocate the reconciliation of sill
yer, or in other words, the recoinage of
the silver dollar, but will also advocate
making silver a legal tender for sums
under fifty dollars, and make gold the
only unlimited tender. The intention of
this measure is fully in accord with the
previous legislation of Radicalism, which
has always sought to build up monopo-
lies and foster the formation of rings for
the purpose of defrauding or expressing
the weak. The injustice of this measure
is so great that every one can at once
perceive its obvious purpose. If silver
be made a tender for sums below fifty
dollars, all laborers and employees whose
salaries are less than fifty dollars month
would be paid off in silver, while the
large creditor would require the gold.
The result of such course would be to
depreciate silver and advance the price
of gold in a manner most injurious to
every one, except the few capitalists who
would be SO fortunate as to have large
sums due them. 1t is evident that such
policy would tend to build up the great
centres of trade, where capital has accu-
mulated, at the expense of smaller towns.
For instance, the merchants of the inte-
rior seldom order bill of goods less
than fifty dollars, and hence their remit
tances would have to be in gold or its
equivalent, and as the majority of their
sales to individuals are in small sums,
they would be paid in silver, which
would be deprecated currency. The
same principle would be found to under
lie almost every strata Of the business
world, and its injury wouldbe very great.
Another wrong which it would do is to
compel the payment of the National
debt in gold when that debt was con-
tracted to be paid in gold or silver. Now
there is no reason why this debt should
be paid in dearer coin than it was con-
tracted in, and the people are not likely
| to advocate policy the object of which

ponding with the managers Of the various

procuring & reduction of rates to the

tend to attend the annual Grand Encamp-
ment!of the Knights Templar, to be held
in Cleveland. Ohio, on the 28th of August,
and continue four days. About so knights
Templar from this vicinity intend to be
present.
The c., r. /. & P. road, with its usual
liberality, will furnish a special car for the
occasion and carry the knights for So the
round trip.
The Peoria & Rock Island road will take
them from Peoria to Cleveland and return
for $l5.25 each the round trip, and may
make further reduction.
The Western Union and the G. B. & @
roads haYe not yet been heard from, anG
it is not likely that they will make any
rates.
1t is thought that many knights in thi
