ALL hail the blissful Blair, the null
tiform Montgomery. His " fraud "reso-
luton has, to his own surprise, passed
the House of Delegates. They are big
ger fools than ever Montgomery him
self dreamed they were. The House
instructs the Attorney General to in
stitute proceedings in the Supreme
Court to test the title of Mr. Hayes
This is just the panacea the country
needs. Blair goes for an "ouster" in
much the same spirit that the elder
Weller wanted Mr.. Pickwick to 60 for
an "albi." There's nothing like it.

EUROPE is still far from a condition
of quiet in regard to the Turkish oues-
ton. An International Congress, in
which all the principal governments
would be represented, was to have been
held at the close of this month at Ber-
lin, to settle definitely the relations of
Russia and Turkey toward each other
and the other nations of the continent.
But Russia goes on to arrange terms
In her own way, as she probably feels
herself warranted in doing by her com
plete victory, and Great Britain pouts
and sulks because Russia declines to
submit to her consideration all the
questions of detail that NAV arise
The consequence is that the Congress
may not meet at all, and Russia will
proceed to take care of her own inter-
ITS in the East without any practical
bindraaee. She has now entire pos

WHILE the new public school bill, of
which we have recently given extended
notices, may have contained provisions
that recommended themselves to popu-
lar favor, yet, on the whole, we do not
regret that it has failed to become a
law. Whatever improvement it may
have contemplated over our present sys-
tenn of public education, vet changes of
systems are always accompanied by so
many serious embarrassments, that un-
less the advantages to be gained are
very palpable, they are unwise and in
expedient We do not argue the per-
lection Of the present system, but are
of the opinion that the one proposed
was open to the serious objection of re-
moving still further from the people the
general educational interests. Senator
Stump, the senatorial father of the de-
feated bill, thinks the present school
ring hard one to break. 1t NAV be
so, but in choice of rings, the people
can see through county, easier than

If the Right Honorable John Price
Cochran by the grace of God, and the
suference of the people, Governor and
supreme political sovereign of the great
State Of Delaware, be a man even of
ordinary sensibility, he ought to be the
unhappiest mortal within the limits of
his wide domain. The simple rehec-
ton that he gave his official sanction to
the execution of two unfortunate men,
convicted of an infamous crime upon
the testimony of two discreditable wit
nesses, and one of them selfconfessed
periurer, is, of itself, sufficient Nemesis
for man who believes in the immor-
tally of the soul; but when that d.
luted daily the Every Evening"" es-
says its distressful apology for the act,

or's cup of human misery full to the

WITH Democratic majority in both
Houses of Congress, and President
to match in the White House, the
Southern conspiracy to bleed the Ma
tional Treasury will prove a complete
success. The most astonishing fact
about the whole thing is the complacency
with which the country looks upon this
gigantic attempt at public robbery
There seems to be no limit to the au-
dacity Of the South, and, instead of
stealing out on this raid covertlv, it
goes forth with drums beating and ban
ners flying, confident of success, and
likely to realize its expectations Is
this game Of getting even" to be
played through as it has begun? If
not, loyal men will have to 60 to work
