WHENEVER you hear of the election of Il
Republican congressman from the extreme
South, you may take it as matter OF course
that he is carpet Dagger, most likely from
Maine, who left his country for his country S
good. OF this class is Horatio Bisbce, the
man who was given the seat from the sec
ond district from Florida Of him it is
said, and no doubt truly, that his heart is as
cold as the icicles of his native Maine. his
sublime audaclty his distinguishing charac-
teristic, and his several years residence
among the people OF Florida the best posi-
bic proof of their long suffering and chris
tian forbearance. 1t is men of this charac-
ter too, that the Republican party seems to
prefer as representatives of southern dis
tricts. They can be driven or bought to any
extreme; they come without constituency,
hold themselves answcrablc to nobody, and
finally sink away into the obscurity from
which the era Of carpet baggism fshcd
them up.

OUR PUBLIC INSTITUTIONAL SCG
GESTlON TIIEREUNTO APPER.
TANNING.

Inquiry into the management Of num-
Der of the insane asylums of the State of
New York, has brought to light acts of
cruelty on the part OF the managers that
are SO horrible in their character as to stag
ger credulity. Especially is this the case
with the Onondaga asylum, where deeds
were done and scenes enacted that would
backen the darkest corner of he'll Yet this
Onondaga asylum has been the object of
annual visits from inspecting committees,
whose reports painted it as sort Of an
elysium for the reason.bereft unfortunates--
an institution where the management had
been most humane, chrstian-llke and eco
nomical.
If We never knew it before, we are now
apprised Of the fact, that the truth as to the
management OF our humane and charitable
institutions, can never be ascertained
through stated examinations. Everything
is prepared for the coming of the
committee. A collation. of turkey
oysters, sandwiches, wine and cigars
is the first thing that is investigated.
Then comes show Of scrubbed floors;
paupers and lunatics and criminals IN their
best attire, and every one of them under
the conviction that Ills future punishment
will be intolcrablc if he fails 10 show bv
his conduct and conversation that he is one
Of the happiest and best contcnted mortals
living. And all this pre-arrangcd pro-
grammc being seen by the committee
through the sparkle Of catawba wine or the
amber color Of old rye whiskey, the con
cusion is inevitable that the institution is
in humane hands, and that the State will
be fortunate indeed, if it can retain in its
employment the "gcntlcmanly superntend-
ent, who is in all his dealings with his un.
fortunate charges, actuated by impulses
that are christian-like, and a sympathy and
forbcarancc that distinguishes him as the
one out OF ten thousand for the post he oc-
cupies." Such are almost invariably, the
results of fixed annual or biennial injuries
into the condition and management,
OF our public institutions, and such will
continue to be the result, 80 long as the
managers Of such institutions are notified,
weeks in advance, that the character of
their management is to become the object
OF Legislative inquiry.
The public institutions of the state of
Illinois, will, during the coming session Of
the Legislature, undergo their biennial in.

THE New York Commercial points to
the fact that there are no Republican pa
pcrs in the South outside of Baltimore and
Louisville, and arrives at the conclusion,
from such premises, that the South is as
solid and intolerant now, as before the Re
bel!ion. If such sheets as the Commercial
could dismiss the thought that the Repub-
lican party and the North are the same
thing, it would view the solidity and alleg-
ed intolerance Of the South through mere
mdgnanimons and patriotic spectaclcs.
Besides this, the Commercial wilfully or ig-
norantly lies. There are Republican pa
pcrs all over tie South-in New Orleans,
VickSburg, Charleston, Mobile, Montgom-
cry, Richmond--in almost every city of
5000 or more inhabitants will be found a
Republican newspaper. And if such were
not the case, what of it! Heaven knows 1t
is no drawback to any decent community
to he deprived of the presence OF Repub-
lican printing Office.

And now we have il that rival to Mr.
Edison has appeared upon the stage in tn,
person of the somewhat famous electrician
Mr.. j. B. Butler. He claims the discovery
of an electric light, and of devices for sepa-
rating and diffusing it. Other electricians
are also at work, and may in time, find a
solution for the problems that seem to
stand in the way of the adoption of Mr..
Edison's light as the illuminator that is to
displace our gas, our dips and Kerosene.
OF this there is of course, no absolute GER
tainty but the probability of such result
is not to be questioned. twill notdo, then,
for our gas companies to sit quietly down in
view of this probability, and do nothing
towards placing themselves on a competing
footing with the new discoveries, in the
event Of their success, The largest amount
of the best possible gas from the least pos.
sible quantity of coal, is the great dissider-
alum, for the attainment of which our gas
companies ought to labor. The time will
come, no doubt, when coal gas will be pro-
duccd at cost of say so cents per thousand
feet. In that event the Edisons of the
country will be compelled to substitute
something cheaper than lightning or go out
of the market All of which we say for the
encouragement of Gerould-of course.
