REPRESENTATIVES, GLOVER Is talked of for
next United States Senator from Missouri.
THE friends of General L. Pope Walker, are
urging bis claims for the United States Senate
from Alabama.
The Hayes men, out in Wisconsin, are put.
ting themselves in battle array against Sena-
tor Howe. They psopose to defeat his ro-elect-
ion.
Hon. b. +. WAsHBURNE, Of Illinois, an
nounccs that his present retirement from pub
lie life is permanent, rs Congressman and
Minister he has been in public service about u
quarter of u century.
The Chicago Inter Ocean intimates that "it's
the fashion with certain class of newspapers,
and a yilainous fashion it is to impugn the
motives of any man who may chance to differ
with them on public questions"
DIR. HAYES assures his friends that he
doesn't mind 1lOwe's attack, because Presi-
dent Lincoln was bitterly assale1 in the last
year of his FIRST term. Lord bless us how
we apples swim !'-St. Louis Globe Democrat.
CONGRESSMAN ELLIS, of louisiana is able
to see the stupidity of trying to get Whitaker
out Of tight place at the expense of the SUI
preme Court of his State. He says the decis-
ion of the court was unanimous, cmanating
from five judges of exalted character and
great legal attainments They are not men
who would shrink from responsibility, or who
would seize upon legal bubble to rid them
selves or Governor Nichols of u difficulty"

WILL England 20 to war? This is now a
nomentous question, as upon it, no doubt,
hangs the peace of all Europe. The proba-
bilities are in favor of war. England en-
tered the Dardanelles with fleet in viola
ton of treaty. Russia has taken up posi-
tion at or near Constantinople, and proposes
to hold on. England must recede or 90 to
war, and Russia seems to be ready for any
issue that the former may offer. The crisis
is imminent, and unless adjusted by an i'm
mediate treaty conflict must follow. Eng
land is making ready while Russia is all
ready. This is the situation in brief

EVEN the Democatic organs, notably the
Sunday GG:ette, of this city, are protesting
against the bogus economy Of our heightened
ex-Confederate House. That journal calls
attention to the fact, frequently mentioned
in these columns, that while the scythe of
sham economy Is being swung right and
left, cutting down the salaries of clerks and
bureau officers Unfortunately, the poorly
earned compensation Of the average Con-
gresham is stolidly, if not periodically, re-
tanned at 5000 per annum. In old times
these unselhsh public seryants-we mean
COngressmen--rece IS day, or trife
less than $1,000 per annum. A reduction
of the present salary TO that rate of per diem
would result in saving to the Government
in round numbers, Of 100000 year. We
mentiOn these figures, you know, just for
the fun Of the thing and not because we
believe the salaries Of Congressman should
be cut down. On the contrary, we believe
that when man is fitted by his education,
Craftsmanship, and patriotism to participate
In the proceedings incident TO law-making
for great country like this, his services are
worth more than the sum now paid. But
the trouble is, very few of them are so fitted,

JUDGE WYLIEs remarks in the Criminal
Court Saturday last, granting new trial in
the CrRTIs-TYDINGs case, were undoubtedly
based upon misapprehension of the facts,
so far as THE NATIONAL REPUBLICAN, is
concerned. The report of his remarks shows
that he believes editorial comment was
made by us, pending the trial, adverse to
however, that full and correct report of
the prisoner. This is a mistake; for, as
usual in such cases, no editorial allusion
was made in our columns to the mat
ter until after the trial had been
closed. 1t is true, the testimony
was given each day by one of our
most reliable rcporters-one of large
experience in court reports. If the jurymen
read those reports they may or may not
have been influenced by them; but if they
We're no injustice was done to the prisoner.

THESE are contentious times. When the
General of the Army condcscends to n wordy
contest through the columns of Democratic
newspapers or any other, for that matter,
over the personal affairs Of court-martialed
officer, it becomes ut once apparent that the
science of logomachy is not without it's
dcvotees, even in the highest circles. But
the spectacle thus presented is not without
the usual moral consequent upon depart
ure from the dignity which should be main
tanned by that official. He is not calcu-
lated, either by nature or training, to prove
that "the pen is mighter than the sword"
though it be welded by hands entirely
great in the use of the last mentioned
weapon. The difference between a writing
man and fighting man has never been
more clearly defined since the battle of
Bladcnsburg.

Of the great causes of the present stagnation
in the business affairs Of the country is to
be found in the fact that capital hesitates
to make investments in manufacturing en-
terprises so long as changes are constantly
threatened in the laws for their regulation.
By all means let the entire bill be laid on
the table as soon as it is reported to the
House. A successful effort to take it up for
consideration in detail, with design TO
adopt or reject especial provisions would
result in protracted debate and create addi-

low profit. lie has been dealing in the
Goods of such men as Wanamaker IL

prices found in a Clothing House.

almost endless variety of Samples from
