ATIneIy Protest.

Atchlaon Champion VDrff Enf.E.f
A number Of the prominent citi-
Azens Of st. Louis, active In the
work OF suppressing the mob in
that city, have published q card in
which they state that In their judg-
ment one OF the principal causes OF
the late disturbances was the failure
of some OF the railroads to pay reg
ularly and promptly their opera
tiVes. They are Informed "that In
Somo instances this class of en-
.plOyes, to whom cash payment is q
necessity have not been paid in
4. full for four months; that In one
instance the pay tor several months
is entirely In arrear, and that . por-
ton OF what is due TO them in mon
ey has been paid them in certifi-
Gates on which they suffer Q ruin
Ola discount.
These gentlemen take occasion to
Sdenounce, in indignant but timely
language, this shameful state of af-
fAirs. Quite as decidedly, they
say ''as the. community is concerned
In expressing lawless violence, II
tis interested in putting an end to
causes from which discomfort and
disturbance naturally fiow." And
. it is the "clear duty, they say, sol
every railroad having an Office in
this city, either to vindicate itself,
. lfs it can, from the general charge,
! or 70 address itself with all dill
Rence to the redress Of what is gent
~ characterized when Il is termed
foul wrong"
This IL . timely and just protest
against . great wrong, and we are
glad to see that it hAs been made,
and made in plain terms, by gentle
men Of the highest cchaFacter and
influence. 1t is time that the whole
scOuntry should consider the causes
which led to 1.-The resent troubles
and correct wrongs that are justly
complained of. Order has been

work is in five volumes, the first four of
which were entirely the production of NJ.

"the calm judicial spirit" and 'loftiness of

1t is a little noticeable with the Louisiana
politicians, that they are frank to confess
that they professed themselves willing to
be bribed. ]. Madison Wells said he did
talk about being ready to sell out for q
million of dollars but that he was in a
"playful mood" And A. B. Levisse, one
of the Louisiana electors, testified that he
was offered twenty thousand dollars, and
then one hundred thousand dollars, if he
would vote for Tilden, or refrain from vot-
ing for Hayes, and that he agreed to re-
frain from voting for two hundred thou
sand dollars, but he never thought "they
" would come up to his price," This is
only of interest now as showing the kind
of men that controlled the electoral vote of
Louisiana-men who will suffer themselves
to be talked to about being bribed and
make appointments for the purpose of hav-
ing the bargain completed are pretty apt
to accept of brides if the bride is only large
enough-but the electoral com mission has,
in effect decided, that, if either eWells or
Levisse had sold out, Governor Tilden
could have accepted the goods and would
have become president in spite Of the
courts, congress or the country.

decision will hardly be accepted as a
precedent to govern the action of future
congresses. Whether the decision is good
law or bad law, 1t only shows the urgent
necessity Of providing for similar conting-
encies in the future. 1t inures to the i'm
mediate benefit of the republicans this time
it may cut the other way next time. But
aside from party ends, surely there should
be some way provided by which these ale
cations of fraud may be investigated, and
it rendered impossible for single corrupt
state returning board to decide the election
of president and vice president of the
United States without regard 10 the vote
actually cast. The decision, this year, may
result in giving an honest expression to the
will of the people, but who would dare say
1t would always be so?

The British Quarterly ReUie'O for Janu-

fishing Co., Al Barclay street, New York,
is just out. We have not space to do more
than indicate the contents.
I. "Julian's Letters" After remarking
that, though the historical value of these
letters has been recognized and appreciated,
their biographical value has been generally
overlooked, the reviewer gives an account
of their number and substance, and of those
to whom they were addressed and con-
cludes by illustrating from them the char
acter of the the man as distinct from the
emperor.
II. "The Poetry of the Old Testament"
The contributions of Lowth, Herder, and
Ewald to the scientific criticism of Hebrew
poetry are briefly summed up; and then
follows long dissertation on its peculiar
qualities. especially dwelling on Its subjec-
tlvity, it's want of plsatic power, its pas
sion and sympathy, its rhythm, and the
various forms of composition in which II
finds expression.

One James White was convicted at Gin
cinnati, Friday, of procuring illegal votes
to be cast at the presidential election. On
the same day the electoral commission de-
cided that if illegal electoral votes were
cast for president, they must be counted
and the country couldn't help itself. James
White could vote for presidential electors,
vnd the Ohio courts had authority to in
quire whether or not he was legal voter;
but il he had voted as presidential elector,
neither congress or the courts have author
ity to inquire whether or not he was legal
voter. This is good law, but poor common
sense-and it behooves congress and the
country to make, in the future, law and
common sense agree.
