General Sherman made a very remark
able after-dinner speech, yesterday, Mt
the meeting of the West Point Alumni.
Abiding to the possibility of an attempt
being made to disturb the Presidents
title, che declared that Mr.. Hayes, al
though mild-mannered gentleman,
would be found to possess the nerve to
mai ntain his right if it was assailed. In
doing so he would have the support of
of the army. This sentiment drew forth
a burst of applause from the veterans as
well as the young graduates.-N.- y. Her.

And thus the robber of the hen roosts
and pig pens of the Georgia cabins, ac-
knowledges his participation in the
Presidential fraud by which he is kept
IN office at a salary ofs1S, 600 a year and his
brother, the chief ofthe managers of the
Presidential theft holds another office out
of which he is enriching himself and his
relatives and friends at the peoples ex-

For EIGHT YEARS the army was kept
up by the Radical politicians to carry the
Southern States. When the whole peo-
pie began to revolt at this and it was
changed, it was found the South was
gutter without the army than with it,.
Next the Indians were resorted to and
stirred up to revolt in order to frame n
pretext for keeping up an army of 10,-
700 officers and 10000 soldiers. 1t is in
variably the case that every time the
Democrats attempt to reduce the army
the Indians are put upon the war path;
and we are thoroughly convinced that
army spectators and the corrupt and
willy officers are guilty of This deception,
and commit the desperate acts at the risk
Of the loss of many lives.

JUDGE LYNCH AT WORK.

LEXINGTON, KY, Jan. 1s.-Three
colored men who were believed to
have been concerned in the murder of
a prominent white citizen were killed
by a mob near here on w Wednesday
night. The murder, which was a
hendish one. took place about two
weeks ago. and a negro named Silver
was Immediately hanged for the crime
This was not thought to be sufficient
to vindicate the law, and on Wednes.
day night mob was formed, and pro.
ceeded first to the residence of Tom
Turner, near Brucetown. They called
for him 20 leave his cabin and go with
them, but he refused, saying If they
wanted to kill him they must do 1t
there. He would not submit to b.
blindfolded, and was shot in the pres
ence OF his wife. He was found yes
terday by the Coroner lying in his
night clothes in his bed room, and
with four bullet holes through his
body, all mortal wounds. In the
woods near by we're found the bodies
OF Edward Claxton, of this city, and
John Davis, both colored, hanging To
the limb OF a tree. Nobody in the
neighborhood could give any informa-
tion as to the lynchers of these men,
except that warrants for the arrest had
been issued the day before, and had
not been served. There were seven
men In the party which killed Turner
but none of them could be recognized
by his wife. The affair occurred IN q
rich and thickly settled district,
where the machinery of the courts is
supposed to be in full operation.

In this instance the companies sus-
pended were not Of the four, but those
whose dsty 1t was 70 pr0ceed 10 the fire
refused to 60 after they found that the
fire was 'outside Of the limits. At the
time the fire was In progress the Chief
was not upon the ground and the First
Assistant being present, ordered the
Water Witch TO go into service, - be
becomes the chief Of that department:
when the regularly constituted Chief ID

Chief he directed the members In charge

that the company was disobeying the

THE SENATE AND HOUSE EX
PENSES.

COSTING s2,327.73 FOR EACH SENATOR
AND ONLY S610 FOR EACH REPREsEN-
TATIvE.
WARRINGTON, Jan, ia comparative
statement recently made out of the ex-
penses OF the Senate and House shows
that while the Senate of 76 members en-
ploys l2 persons at a total expense of
$176,9O7.80 the House, of 292 members,
has the services of but 139 persons, at the
total expense of S183, ,645, the average sal
ary in the former case being sl462. o., and
in the latter 81 ,321; and while 1t takes ST.
327:73 to keep each Senator supplied with
legislative attendance, the expense per
member in the House IL but S6l0. The
difference appears still more striking in
comparing the contingent expenses of
the Senate and House during the short
session. The Senate in round numbers
Is one-fourth the size of the House, but
Its contingent expenses during the short
session were s103,4l while those of the
House were S122 1903. .1
