0a5" The Radical majority of the Commission
has counted the whole vote of Oregon for Hayes
and Wheeler, and the Radical majority of the
Senate accepted the Count as decided.
OF course, this was expected, after the trc-
mendons fraud in the Louisiana case. We may
now safely say that the corrupt Returning Boards
Of Florida and Louisiana, endorsed by four JUS
tices of the Supreme Bench and four of the
bloody-shrt members Of Congress, have elected
President and Vice President of the United
States in defiance of the votes Of over quar-
Of q million majority Of the people And yet
the people are counseed by hon-tax-paying
bondholders to abjectly submit TO it. The spirit
of the American people is stultifed by mon
eyed oligarchy and the Republic isshaken to
its foundation.

Bea. We learn through the Columbia Register
that on Thursday last small cocred boy named
Willie Glenn, about years old, disappeared
very suddenly and has not been seen or heard
of since. large number of people searched
the country for miles around for three days. 1t
is suspected that the little fellow has beepfouly
dealt with by an older brother, who has bad
character.
Just before going to press we were informed
that the child was found yesterday morning
dead in the woods, about two miles from where
its parents live. A Coroner's inquest was held
over the body yesterday, but VIC have not heard
the decision.

The Republican party is set over against the
people Of the South more than ever. There is
now an irrepressible conflict between it and
everything honest and intelligent in the South
ern States The rpet-baggers have won the
election for the party by frauds which the whole
party approved Of, and the carpet-baggers will,
OF course, demand their share Of the spois-
They will be entitled to share of the plunder
by that code of honor which should prevail
among thieves II will not do for Mr. Hayes,
after receiving the stolen goods, to turn round
with an afiectation Of superior riety, and hand
over the robbers to punishment. The only the
ory on which the success Of the Republican par
ty can be justified is that the carpet baggers
were honorable, innocent and wise more sinned
against than SHINING. The new administration
will, therefore, be compelled, in order to be
consistent, TO establish their reign and extend
its benign influence. How can Hayes do any
thing tending to discountenance Packard of
Louisiana, since to denounce Packard is to own
that he himselfis usurper? Ifthe Republican
Governor was fraudulcntly elected, then the Re-
publican President will be frauduently elected
There is no getting around this simple conclusion.
Hayes and Packard are bound together, like the
Siamese twins, by q vital tie.--N. r World.

Tho Court.


A large amount Of business has been disposed
Pleas pockets, and the Court is still IN session.
On Tuesday Judge Northrop delivered SEN
tenoes upon the following parties who had been
found guilty of the crime charged against
them:
State vs.. George Smith-Arson-l0 years in
the Peniteptiary. AE 2
/" Cough Talley*-Stealing Cotton-ls
months in the Penitentjary. 49, -.
I" George Fant-Grand Lares6y Atwo
years in the Penitentiary.
" Lewis Dawkins-Assault, with intent
to kill-6 months in the County Jail
&C Holmes Mobley-Selling Liquor with
out License-30 days in Jail and a
fine of $50.
" Danson Fowler Horse stealing
years in the Peaitentiary. .
*It will be remembered that we noticed this
matter some few weeks ago.. The famous Jerry
Talley, school Teacher and regular Radical
runner for Mobley, was. no doubt the instigator
and main perpetrator of the theft, but, MS usual
he made his escape and left his brother to suf:
fer the penalty.
Solicitor Ball has been very successful in con.
victing at this Court. We believe he only lost
one case during the term. While he has been
energetic and persistent his course has been
courteous, fair and just to all and very accep
table.
trggiuths case of George Smith, for -kvap> thu
Judge very properly took the view that th,
crime of Arson had become so common in other
sections of the State that no one felt secure a
night from the torch of the incendiary, and h,
was determined to prevent similar condition
of society in his Circuit. The sentence in tn,
case of Smith, may appear severe, but it is no
moro severe than the magnitude of the Grim,
demanded. While the County of Union ha.
been pretty free from enJiarism, we com
mend the action of Judge Northrop in nippinl
it in the bud by setting before those inclined t,
commit that crime the fnct that they will find n,
mercy, if convicted by jury, from him.
Taken all together, we think the p, esent ses
sion of our Court will have very salutary in
fuence in suppressing crimes of every charac
ter.

GOVERNMENT ADVERTISING

1t is announced on pretty good author
ity that Secretary Schurz has made up
his mind to break up the old system OF
giving out the Government advertising,
so far as his Department is concerned,
and will endeavor to have it done on
something like business principles. The
advertising swindles have been among
the most enormous from which the Gov
ernment has suffered, and the hardest
to break up, because the benefit was de-
rived by politicians OF higher standing
and more influence than those that prof
tied by the ordinary mode of stealing.
The Interior Department has by far
the largest amount of Government ad-
vertising to give out, if we except the
Post.otiice Department larger, per-
haps, than all the others put to-
gether - and Mr.. Schurz is in
an excellent position to give
the country the practical advantage of
his reform ideas on this subject. The
plan has been to advertise indiscrim-
inately in the party organs, without
regard to location, circulation or ad-
vantage to be derived from the adver-
tising. The purpose seemed to be al
ways to spend about so much money in
papers that had advocated certain men
OF schemes, and with this any settled
ideas on the subject OF advertising
ended. Advertisements for supplies in
small quantities on the frontier might
appear in New England journal, where
q contractor never dreamed of looking,
and which sent not single paper to
any point from which the articles ad-
Vertised for could be advantageously
sent. On one occasion Forney's Wash.
ington Chronicle contained column
advertisement Of a sale of old Govern.
ment saddles in Texas. This advertise
ment was inserted up to the day OF sale,
and in all probability the saddles did moi
bring half enough to pay the advertis
ing bill in this one paper, and it was
most likely inserted in dozen others
Moreover, the paper did not circulate il
the locality where the sale occurred
and ii a reader in Washington hat
started TO the sale on the day he frs
read the advertisement it would have
been over before his arrival there. Mr.
Schurz's idea is that the advertising
shall be done on business principles
that when the Government desires 6
certain class OF people to be made ac
quainted with particular fact. it shal
advertise in the paper or papers most
likely to accomplish the object. IL

column advertiseme1 in the WASH
ington Chronicle and dozen
other organs, he would have inserted a
notice in the local paper at San Antonio,
where the sale took place.
Mr.. Schurz believes the object sought
can be best attained by the establish
ment of an advertising bureau in the
Treasury or some of the other depart
ments, and that the work should be CIV
en- out by contract to the papers that will
do it best at the least cost.
II this plan is honestly carried out it
will result in great advantage to the
Government, and will also benefit the
public by causing the death of many
worthless newspapers that will then
die because they have nothing further
to live Tor. 1t will also make better pa
pers of some that now depend too much
on Government patronage, but which, il
that be withdrawn or only received as
any other business, would be compelled
to make stronger efforts to merit the
support OF the public.
Mr.. Schurz would thus not only great
ly benefit the Government by large
saving on the present cost of advertis-
ing, and by getting the work more thor
ougbly done, but wolld be doing real
service to newspaper publishers.
He will, however, have a determined
and influential opposition to meet, and
even with his known tenacity OF purpose,
we are not sure he will be able to fully
carry out his plan. He can, however,
make move in the right direction. and
If thwarted in his main purpose, will be
able to keep check on the swindles
and very much good can be accom-
plished even by this.
