The DEMOCRATS in Congress could
not have been more plainly told than
they were by the results of the last cleo
tion, that the people will not be satisfied
with any half-pay measures of economy.
They demand general reduction in the
expenditures, and will not be satisfied
unless this is made. If there is not re-
dllction made by the present House, in
the appropriation bills and insisted upon
until it is shown that such bill with
such reductions cannot be passed because
of veto, we shall have little hope for a
victory in 1880. The Republicans are as
good at making platforms as the Demo-
Gratis, and their promises fr curtalment
Of expenses, may be as reliable in 1880
as ours, if the present Democratic
House fail to meet the wish of the peo-
pie. The army and navy as well as
other appropriations should be greatly
reduced. 1t is not true that officers cam
not live on a smaller salary, when a
private has to live on about one sixth o
the amount paid lieutenant.

The people were run into debt to fire.

The people were run into debt to free
the negroes and now the brokers who
made millions out Of buying govern
ment bonds at 40 to 90 cents on the dol
lar, want to force Congress to put 44O
grains of silver in a dollar, when the
dollar only contained 412a grains of sill
yer when the bonds were sold. If this
is done it will add sixteen million dollars
to every hundred million dollars that are
paid, because the bonds will be paid in
paper that is equal in purchasing value
to gold or silver. Ii the government
will coin gold on the same terms it coins
silver, the silver dollar will be at par
with the gold dollar.

OFFICE-sEEKING, Of late years, has
been made business. Men quit their
work frequently and do nothing else but
run over the country seeking recommen-
dations for office and not unfrequently
they are wholly incompetent to the ac-
tual discharge Of the duties of the Office
they covet. This has been grea ly in
creased within the past ten or twelve
wears; and now men are frequently heard
10 declare that il would be better to have
all the county officers elected by the
people-that the selection from recon-
nendations amount TO the same thing.
We have no wish to cavil or complain
Of either policy. In 1854, when con-
yention had been held and an excellent
constitution framed after much labor and
great expense, in which all the county
officers were made elective by the people;
but by the assistance of the late John NJ.
Clayton the office-holders managed to
have the constitution rejected by the peo-
pie al special election, because it did moi
give representation according to popula.
tion, in the Legislature. Had the con-
stitution contained a clause granting rep.
resentatiOn according to population i,
would have received few votes in Kent
and Sussex. This presents the view o
this case. Unless this county accepts the
condition of affairs we can see no wa,
out of our present condition. The con
sttution framed in 1854 gave New Castl,
larger representation than either of til,
other counties. But the offer was YER
unwisely thrown away TO subserve tn
interests of a few Democratic office
holders-most Of whom lacked the man
illness to enter the arena and secure popu
lar election by the people.
1t is time office-seeking as a busines
were stopped, and the Executive G
the State assumed the right given to hii
to appoint those to office who are we
qualified for the duties from position, ,inte
lect and experience. And men are give
to understand that they will not be er
courased to seek office for two, three, all
even four years before the term expire
with any assurance of cutting out sue
as are required to attend to their bushes
and maintain their families instead, unt
within a few months or weeks of II
time to fill such office.
We disclaim any reflection on any OF
in this matter, and only look to the cor
mon interest of all and the gooo of Il
State. The offices so far have been fill,
with gentlemen who are competent, al
wepresume they could not have be,
filed TO give entire satisfaction.

Vfrginia's Material PROGRESS.

1t is about tine for Virginia TO give up
talking about the state Of things "before
the war" Charles Dickens, and every
other traveller Who visited the State be-
fore the war, testified that everything
was going 10 rack aud rum. Dickens es-
pecially noted the "decayed appearance
Of dote-bellum Richmond, and it is GER
tain that the State Capital is now twice
as large, and ten times as beautiful and
prosperous as it ever was "before the
war" 1t is since the war that Norfolk
has made giant strides, and becomes the
second cotton port of the Union. 1t is
