The report of the examining oommiriee

searching and must prove

For the past three months there has been =

heretofore were above suspicion. This

IT DOES NOT appear that there Is any
court usage which by right Of prescri ptlon
vests the office OF Grand Chamberlain Of
the White House in the occupant Of any
particular public station bestowed by the
President. This Is happy thing. under

distinguished Marshal OF any feeling Of
slight, resulting from the choice made.
which. were 1t otherwise. he might vex
himself with. The tenure Of the Presi-
Dental Office not being for the life Of the
incumbent, the person Of the Chamber
lain changes with the Administration, and
he is accordingly selected to suit the
pleasure or convenience Of the President,
and holds no title by right Of special posi-
ton under the Government. Still we ex.
pect to see the President denounced by the
soreheads and the soithesds for rejecting
the official services Of Mr.. DOUGLASS on

DATNENG TWILIGHT OF rRoSrER-
OTS DAYS.


OCS DArS.
We are gradually drifting into thai state
when the country will have more business
and less politics 1t will be a time when q
sy stem Of internal improvements, which il
essential to the development Of the ccuntry's
resources will be sustained by the Govern
ment aud tariff will be adopted Of M
ture sufficient 10 keep employed all present
labor and lend healthy impetus 10 new
enterprises. The wheels of industry are
beginning to turn with that sure and
steady revolution which indie s;es vigor and
strength. In the South the lAborers are
doing much better than they have done for
years. They work cheertully and are re-
ceiving fair wages. In the North manu-
featuring establishments which hsye been
standing with closed doors are now open
ing those doors to the unemployed and
giving labor TO thousands who have for
months been living in involuntary idlencss
Another strong indication of coming pros
peri,y Is found in the fsci that farmers AL
over the country are preparing larger fields
for the reception Of seed, which bid fair 10
bring abundant harvests. With this out
look, combined with the erpectant good
results of the Presidents Southern policy
and the probable demands upon our mar
ke,s for foreign shipments, il can safely he
said that America is standing in the dawn
ing twilight of prosperous days

THE END APPROACHING IN LOUIS
ANA,

IANA.
As we predicted would be the case
at the outset, the Louisiana Commission
seem to be doomed to disappointment in
their hopes of effecting q mutual under
standing between the contestants In that
State by which their interests can be harmo-
nized and the State government relieved Of
the embarrassment Of conflicting claims.
The confidence inspired in the PACKARD
circle by the appointment Of the Commis-
sion has had the effect to defeat Its object
to great extent If it does not altogether.
When 1t was seen that parley was to be
given them they felt assured that the Presi.
dent ives open TO conviction, and that by
strenuous assertion of their rights as being
as full and indisputsble as his own. and
strong demonstrations Of will to stand by
them, he might yet be induced TO maintain
the equities of the position, or at least to
demand in exchange for them such recog.
milton or place as should In some degree COM
pensste for their surrender. This anticips-
ton has been the great obstacle In the way
OF success, and promises, we fear, to make
it necessary tor those allowing themselves
TO be its dupes 70 go away empty Of all
honor as well Of emoluments. Had they
been less arrogant and more rational they
might have secured certainty Of such con-
sideration In the State as would have ena-
bled them to remain there not only, but
to have an influential voice and active part
in its public affairs. But as they have
chosen, they must accept, and the result
will be that when the difficulty is left to
resolve ITSELF after the withdrawal of the
troops, they will find themselves, sure
enough, in the category Of those not hav,
ing seats in "anybody's Legislature, " as
WARMoTH puts it, and among those meet
ing with none SO poor as to do them honor.
| With discretion, as well as courage, they
might have made such terms as would
have left them chance for the general
support and undisputed success at another
time in conjunction with many of those
now opposed to them. for there Is nc
doubt that iu very short time, under such
an adjustment, aided by the respect will
which they would have been regarded
in consequence, they could have advanced
to favor with the people Of Louisiana with
out reference TO their nativity, any mort
than to the distinctions of color, They
could have remained respected citizens o

THE general belief is that SAMUEL RAN.
DALI stands the best chance on the Demo
cratic side for the Speakership. He seems
to have solid doughfaced North and
good many earnest supporters in the South.
There are several Southern. members, how
ever, who have decided not TO support Mr..
RANDALL, and this endsngers his cause, as
the Democracy have but half score ma
jcritv in the House. There Is no straight
out Democrat who can successfully rival
him, and as that party will certainly place
positive Bourbon in the field, Mr.. RAN
DALI has everything to his advantage 20
far as his party is concerned. There Is,
however, one great obstacle in the way Of
his success, and that Is the favorable
chances of the Republican candidate.
