A Burglar Frozen to Death
From the TrOy Times.

On Wednesday afternoon the body ol
a negro was found on East Mountain
Williamstown, N. Y. The village au-
thorities have discovered that his name
was Amos Vincent, resident OF Cam.
bridge, Vt. From certain articles found
on his person, 1t was concluded that he
was one OF the burglars whoa few weeks
ago, broke into the store connected with
the Blackiston Mills. He had evidently
left his shoes behind him and being
afraid TO take the cars in his barefoot
condition, had started for Pownal by
way of the mountains and, being obliged
to spend the night there, was frozen to

Tho debate on tho petition Of William and
Mary College in Virgina for reimbursement
of the losses suffered by it from its
burning during the war by Federal sol
diers shows the malignity of the Republicans
towards the South. It is obvious that large
number of them oppose this claim simply
from hatred and cnmity toward the South.
This. Mr. Keifer, Of Ohio. confessed in his
speech on this subject. He did not oppose
the claim on the ground that it was not just
or proper, but because most Of the graduates
of the college had fought in the Confederate
army: because the teachings Of the college
ii was there that Washington, Jefferson and
Madison were taught inculcated secession

Mr.. Lowe, the Alabama Independent, seems
disposed to flop over to the Republicans. He
was elected as q nominal Greenbacker, which
in Alabama, rs In this State. seems to mean
an opponent to the Democracy. Lowe Is n
sensible man in one respect; he will not talk
on any but financial questions. The only fact
by which his political course in the next
Congress can be guessed, is that he asso-
ciates almost wholly with the Republicans
and seems disposed IT, avoid Democratic
Congressman. When 1t Is further stated
that Mr.. Lowe Is bidding for the Federal
patronage Of Alabama. vice Spencer, retired

In our reference to the Times statement of
the case now pending In the Supreme Court,
we assumed, for the sake OF argument, that
the injunction which had been applied for in
the lower court had been abandoned In the
Supreme Court.
But the statement Of tho Times, we have
discovered In examining the record. to be
grossly erroneous On tho contrary, we find
that the plaintiff insisted vigorously on the
injunction in the SuprerIe Court and asked
that the Judgment Of the lower court be
amended In that respect The answer to the
appeal. which was seasonably filed in the SUI
preme Court, shows that the REALTORS asked
the afllrmance Of the judgment Of the lower
court rs far as If grants the mandamus, and
it's reversal as far rs it declines the injunc-
tion. The answer to the appeal further prays
the appellate court to grant the injunction

The country has hoped to soc Robson In
dicted and tried for tho thefts and pecua-
lions OF the Navy Department when he was
ut its head but these hopes, il appears are
doomed to disappointment. At the last ses-
sion of Congress Mr. Whitth0ne. chairman
of the House Committee on Naval Affairs,
made a thorough investigation OF tho man
agement of the Navy Department under
Robasons administration, and discovered that
the United States had been defrauded of i'm
mense sums by Robson and his pals. The
Republican members Of the committe" did
everything in their power TO prevent and
hinder the investigation, and cross-examined
the witnesses with the view of lcssening the
testimony against Robson, Testimony
enough, however, was obtained to Justify
Robeson's indictment and trial. and n report
to that effect was adopted. with q resolution
instructing tho clerk Of the House OF Repre-
sentatives to deliver copies of the report to
the President and the Attorney General, with
the recommendation Of the House that the
parties shown by this testimony to have
violated the law he tried and punished
This report was presented to the committee
for adoption half dozen times, but the
Republicans always managed to be absent
whenever It came up. Thus the matter went
on until Congress adjourned. At the present
session Mr. Whitthorne took up tho report
again, and announced that the Democrats
would agree to 1t and report it, whether the
Republicans were present or not. This threat
would seem TO have brought the Republican
members to terms. and the latter have offered
a compromise which. 1t is said, the Demo-
Gratis are willing to accept in order that the
report may be unanimous and thus carry
more weight. The compromise suggested by
-4tse Republicans Is that while the manage
ment of the naval department under Robson
was scandalous and the government de-
frauded out OF immense sums Of money,
Robescn himself did not pocket any of ehe
spoils
Areport like this would be fully understood
by the country it would be report against
the Republican party and the Grant regime.

WAsHINGTON. Dec. -. M yra Clark Gaines

reverses which has made her life as litigant
SO remarkable. The House COMMITTEES on
Private Land Claims to-day disposed, in part,
Of her claim to 5000 acres in louisiana EN-
bracng n large portion Of New Orleans. Her
claim for scrip for this immense tract is now
reduced to 5000 acres. The 10000 were Topped
away from the claim on the ground that the
old Spanish grant upon which it is based
is not good as against claims OF the
United States, and that, furthermore, her
grandfather, Clark, had no title from the
Spanish government, but, even If he had, the
chain in that title was broken The claim for
5000 acres still remaining is yet under consid-
nratinn.

THE DEMOCRAT FOR 1879.

The generous patronage the New Orlean
the Southwest, and especially from those Of
Louisiana, encourages It's proprietors to re-
newed efforts to make 1t more than ever the
LEADING NEWSPAPER or THE SOUTH.
The New Orleans DEMOCRAT is the only
paper in the South which receives the tele-
graphic dispatches Of the
NATIONAL ASSOCIATED PRESS.
now conceded to be far superior, both as to
the quantity and Importance Of the news, q
the New York Associated Press, upon which
nearly every paper, little OF big in this
section depends for It's Geographic news. Thus
the people of New Orleans, and indeed of the
South. are supplied through the DEMOCRAT
with intelligence which they can obtain in no
other paper This feature Of the DEMOCRAT
alone cornmends it to popular favor in every
direction
The DEMOCRAT now prints more reading
matter than any other journal in New Or
leans or, indeed, in the South. Nevertheless,
after the first Of January the quantity will be
GREATLY INCREASED,
and IL Is orr determination to rival the great
Journals Of the West In the variety and guam
tity of matter each morning furnished our
readers
OUR COMMERCIAL DEPARTMENT,
under the control Of Col VIM. Seymour, 50
we'll known by the public Of this city, will be
extended and made SO complete that IL will
meet every need and wish Of the business
community.
While the DEMOCRAT has been the recog
nized organ of the Democratic party, 1t has
been the only really independent newspaper
printed in New Orleans for years. 1t has sup
ported and defended with all its earnestness
and ability the principles Of Democracy; but
1t Inns never hestated 10 attack abuses in the
party and by this latter course It has arrayed
against it every ring politician In the state.
Looking solely to the masses of the Democ-
racy for appreciation, 1t has attacked every
ring and monopoly in this city; and though
Its simple silence could have commanded
large sums Of money in tho way of business
transactions from the monopolies. 1t has at
tackled them with all its capacity and with
out an exception arrayed them all against it,.
The past course Of the DEMOCRAT Is q
guarantee of It's future policy. 1t will stand
by the people and by the great principles Of
the Democratic party. 1t has no interest In
Individual leaders and politicians II Is allied
with none of these. 1t is simply for tho Dem
ocratic party and the reform of abuses in or
out Of the Democratic party.
And now, notwithstanding tho tremendous
power Of rings and monopolies, sustained by
millions of capital, which the DEMOCRAT has
earth to crush it, we point with pride to tho
Endorsement it has received from the people
OF. this State, indicated by the growth of its
subscription from u few hundred to over five
thousand daily in tho State, swelling on Sun
days to nine thousand and not unfrequently
to twelve thousand.
The DEMOCRAT for 1879 will be tho most
newsy and attractive journal in the South,
and we solicit the people of this and our
neghborng States To continue and extend
the favor and patronage they have already
