There is a brute named James
Taylor in the Clarksburg Jail, charg-
cd with committing a rape on his
own daughter. His wife and daught-
er both testify to the truth of the
charge preferred against him. He
always protested to be very pious,
and took a leading part in religious
meetings. He deserves the severest
penalty the law can intlict.

The latest estimate of the effect of
the Democratic redistribution scheme
in Ohio puts down six districts as
certainly Republican, seven as GER
tainly Democratic, and seven. as
doubtful. OF the latter, two were
Republican in 1876, and five were
Democratic. Each of the doubtful
districts gave less than a thousand
majority to the party which carried
it in 1876.

The Republican party in Congress
has fought warmly the proposed re-
duction of the army to 10000, one Of
their reasons being that the work
ingmon were arming and threaten
ing serious disturbance this summer.
The Democratic party had more
faith in the workingmen, and per-
sisted in the reduction. By a vote
of nearly 1870 Democrats to about 112
Republicans, the army was reduced
on the 9th ult., to the minimum
The Republican party has the mon
ey of the country; they are trying to
starvo the workingmen to their
terms, andfailing in that, they would
use the army to drive them into
bonds, under the groundless assert
ion that the laboring men are pre-
pairing for an outbreak.

The Philadelphia Times speaks of
the proceedings of the Democratic
State Convention as follows:
The ticket is conceded on all
hands to be a very strong one, and
the campaign on the Democratic side
promises to be of the most aggressive
character. Unless Democratic sue
cess isentirely beyond the range Of
political effort in Pennsylvania this
year, Andrew H. Dill will be the
next governor of the Commonwealth.
After speaking of the candidates
particularly it adds:
With these as the Democratic can
didates, the platform is aggressive in
every line. 1t moves upon the Re-
publican ranks with u defiance that
is refreshing and it reaches for all
allies within sight as it advances.

THE DRAINAGE QUESTION.

Administrator MeCaffrey is considering the
drainage of all that section Of the city stu
ated between the New canal, the Bayou st.
John and the lake, and the Metairie ridge and
the lake. The protection of the section re-
ferred to from the encroachments Of lake
water he thinks could be effected at little cost
and would require only slight levee along
the western bank Of the Bayou st. John, flood
gates at the junction Of Taylor avenue and
Harrison avenue canals and the bayou, and a
slight levee along the lake shore from Orleans
street to the New canal. This latter ievee, it
is thought at the City Hall, ought tn be con-
structed by the City Park and Lake Railroad
the lake shore to the New canal. The
length of the embankment necessasy to lay
their tracks in that direction is only about
5000 feet, aud from conversation INDUCED in
at the City Hall it is probable that the COM
pany will be asked to construct it before they
can obtain any further favors from the City
Council. This appears reasonable, inasmuch
as the company is more directly interested in
the drainage OF the section than anybody else,
il we except the New Orleans City Railroad
line to the lake. The embankment in course of
construction by the Park Railroad Company
from Spanish Fort to Milneburg is another
step towards the drainage OF the city, and
with some little additional works by the city
all those lands between the Bayou St. john,
Elysian Fields street. the lake and the Mar
kitchen gardens and residences. The works
and flood gate at Peoples Avenue canal is still
another step towards the most desired i'm
provement to the city Of New Orleans,
An embankment inshore, from Milneburg
to the junction Of the canal with the lake
would drain all that portion Of the Third Dis
trict, which Is now nothing but a filthy swamp
and breeder of malaria.

DOMESTIC INTELLIGENCE.
THE ANDERSON DECISION.
Comments of the new York Pres

BY many whether the Anderson decision affects
Mad. Wells. 1t may be stated authoritatiyely
that his ease Ill be opened ~ soon as possible.
and every effor made to push 1t through. II Is
thought that there Is much stronger case
against him than Anderson. and that there are
Iar greater chances Of his being punished
Both Wells and Anderson have powerful
friends In the State, outside even OF the Re-
publican party, and the decision OF the Su-
pretne Court will have he effect tn strengthen
efforts In tneir behalf. A better and more hope
full feeling prevails among the Republicans
here, They are beginning to believe that
Nichols and the Supreme C,urt intend to see
Justice done them In all matters. and they begin
20 express more interest in the future Of the
State
The Herald says, ehitorially: 'The country is
to be congratulated that it is to hear no more of
the everlasting Louisiana middle"
The Times Says:
The knot OF the Louisiana complication
has been very neatly cut by the Supreme
Court Of that State. This not only effects
the release OF Con. Anderson but also acts
as a bar against any further prosecution of the
Returning Board The decision has tho re-
markable merit of pleasing both sides. Louisi-
ana ought now tn have what 1t greatly needs-a
period OF political repose.
The sun Says:
The decision does not cast any doubt over the
fact Of Anderson being guilty of forgery.
The star Says:
The Anderson case decision is a signal frac-
1aure OF justice.
