untarily and wantonly swaggers before the
country and threateningly taps his sword NIT
and tenders its services to the Indlvlduais
under investigation. Sc
Either the man does not know the sgnlh-
cameo of his conduct or believes he Is the
armed master of the country. Either way
he is not the man to entrust with authority
for he does not know his place or, II ne does,
refuses to keep it. Because his 6rotner Is IN
an ugly dilemma he assumes to play the dem /,
agogue in shoulder straps and TO Insult anu
bully the highest authority Of the hepuDnc.
He speaks for the army-as if that institution
had he reeulation of affairs and was his per-
sonaI following to do his bidding and execute
his will. Grant, with all his prestige, as
President and commander-in-chlet,n never ven
tured to such lengths. But this man looses
mo opportunity to brandish his sword at tne
CONGRESS of the people and warn them that ne
Is on the side of his suspected brother.
It is well enough for Congress to reiterate
its purpose of not disturbing the title OF the
acting President, by defeating the hlmmel
resolutions. But it would be well Ior tnat
body to practically rebuke this upstart soiuier
for his officious insults, and teach him tnaI IN
a free country no military chief can noid ms
personal caprices or chagrln above us laws
and institutions. General Sherman has e1-
OOSeQ himself as elLucI a ICi
an unworthy officer, and 1T is tune ne was
made to feel that he is foolishly rushing IN
where the best of his predecessors never
dared to tread.
Baltimore S,tn.-It is greatly to be regret
ted that Gen. Sherman has shown disposi-
ton of late to incorporate politics into his
sneecbes. But when he undertakes to intro
duee the subject and talk of the PRESIDENT
being .1reouired to defend his right to the
Mace he occupies and indicates that IN that
event he would be sustained by the army,
which is ssworn to defend the constituted au-
thorities''-as if there was no other constltu :
ted authority than that of the executlve-he is
wantonly and foolishly stepping on dangerous
ground. In advance of any such possioie
issue. to say the least, that is no subject LOT
the soldier. If Gen. Sherman will attend 10
his military duties and leave the admlnstra-
tion of affairs to those to whom the country
has entrusted them he would save himself
from many structures. If, too, he could be
brought to understad that the army is not the
creation and creature of any one man, he
would cease to make a tender of its services.

Southern end Northern Claims.

We call the attention of the reader to
the resume of the speech of Hon. Fl. d.
Money, of Mississippi, recently delivered
in the House of Representatives, on the
relative expenditures of the public money
in the North and South. 1t appears on
the 4th page of this issue. The country
has been filled recently with Republican
clamor about Southern Claims, and their
Misrepresentation have grown to such
gross proportions, that, unanswered, they
are likely to mislead the public and to
impress it with the idea that the South is
seeking its own ACKNOWLEDGEMENT at the ex-
pense of every other part of the country,
and of every principle of honesty and fair
dealing. Mr.. Money disabuses the public
mind on this subject, and shows that the
demands upon the treasury from the North
and the South, are as 81 1853, rs, OBS for
the North to S15O,OOO,OOO for the South,
disproportlon so great that 1t ought 10
silence all such clamor at once and forever.
Mr. Money deserves the thanks of the
country for thus indicating the truth and
putting this gross Republican falsehood in
its true light before the people. "South-
ern Claims is to be one of the Republi-
can electioneering cries, this fall, in their
efforts to wrest the House of Representa-
tives from Democratic control; but Mr..
Money has fully exposed the demagogical
character of this trumped-up story, and
revealed its falsehood, as well as the con-
temptible trickery of thus attempting to
mislead the people and to impose upon
popular credulity by false representations
for mere party ends. Read the facts and
figures which Mr.. Money gives after great
research, from the official records, and
store thea in the memory for rebuttal
Of this charge of the Republicans, when
ever it is reiterated in the hearing Of any

The Presidents Title.

What a commentary upon the states
manship of this country is the report OF
the Judiciary Committee of the House OF
Representatives on the Kimmell bill, with
reference to the Presidents title, that the
Presidency having once been adjudged to
Mr.. Hayes, there is no constitutional au-
thority to disturb him in his Office Let
it be assumed that this is sound constitu-
tional doctrine, how does the matter OF the
Presidency stand, in view of the facts
which have been developed? No one, OF
any party, with common sense and COM
mon honesty, now believes that Mr. Hayes
was elected. No one doubts that Louisiana
and Florida were counted for Hayes through
fraud; and yet, Hayes having obtained the
Office by fraudulent means, is secure in
his place, because there is no lawful or
constitutional remedy to put him out, and
to install in the Office the man whom the
people elected. Here is most extraordl-
nary defect in our constitution and laws.
An omission, hiatus, that may some day
prove fatal to the peace and order of the
country and the stability of the Govern
ment. The country is now filled with
popular discomfort at the existing condl-
ton of things. The Democratic party
feel and know that they have been cheat
ed out of the Presidency. That this feel
ing has not eliminated in violence and
commotion, is due to its conservatism and
forbearance under the severest and most
trying provocation that any party was ever
called on to endure. 1t is to be hoped that
the country will never again pass through
another such an ordeal And yet, no leg
islation to prevent it has been enacted.
Time is passing, 1880 approaches, when
another Presidential election will occur;
and it is clearly within the bounds of pro-
liability to say, that fraud, having once
been successful, there will be equal temp
tation for the same class of men to attempt
it again. And, should it be attempted, it
is hardly probable that the country could
pass through another such trial without
open rupture. 1t is the plain duty of
Congress, therefore, to devise such legisla-
tions as will putt out of the power of such
scoundrels as the Florida aud Louisiana
Returning Boards, although they may be
melted and encouraged thereto by such
men as John Sherman and Stanley Mat
thews and other visiting statesmen, ever
again to set the country by the. ears over
the Presidency.

Senator Whyte Eulogizing Grant.

The Baltimore Gazette takes Senator
VIM. Pinkney Whyte, of this State: to
task for tie following fulsome flattcry Of
Gen. Grant, uttered few days since ID
the Senate in speech against the River
and Harbor Bill:
~ admire Ulysses S. Grant. There was a
bean of Roman in that man which inspired
the admiration of every American. He was
great on the battlefield; he was great IN the
White House, and that character which llken-
ed him to Andrew jackson won upon the
hearts oft American people, and he never
did drawer act than when, in the summer OF
1876, he took his sword and stuck 1t into the
River and Harbor Bill, and told his officer up
there at the War Department, "Thus far shalt
thou go in the expenditure Of public money
and no farther"
The Gazette says :-"We have rarely
heard from democratic leader sentiments
more undemocratic than this. Apart
from the fact that Senator Whyte's fiat
tery of Grant is as false as it is fulsome,
it is altogether unimportant that one dl-
lapidated politician should eulogize anoth-
er. The Gazette attaches altogether too
much Importance to this barney of the
Senator by calling it ga send-otf for
Grant"

Adjournment of Congress.

Congress closed its labors on Thursday
morning, after session of eight months,
having met in extra session in October
last, which continued up to the regular
session in December. Like most legisla-
tive bodies it is sharply criticised by the
astute newspaper critics (who know every
thing, and great deal morc,) Tor its SINS
of omission and commission, and from
their sanctums proclaim what ought and
what ought not to have been done
Among the measures adopted is the
silver bill, that Pandora's box, Gin the es-
timation of its opponents which had to
be passed over the Presidents veto; the
bill repeating the bankrupt law; the dry
dock bill; the Pacific railroads sinking
fund bill; and many others of lesser note.
Among those which did not pass, may
be mentioned the bill to repeal the resump-
tion act. Mr.. Woods tariff bill; and the
bill to change the internal revenue laws
Nothing was done in the way of civil ser
vice reform, or to remedy the defects of
the present mode of electing President
and counting the electoral votes, or to pro-
tect the country against the recurrence OF
such questions and controversies as arose
after the last presidential election. The
n II
question of the fraudulent title of the
President was slurred over, after fashion,
and left in anything but satisfactory con-
ditiou to those who look at the abstract
Justice or injustice of things. But, per
contra, the Investigation into the corrupt
and fraudulent proceedings of the Florida
and Louisiana returning boards, was a step
in the right direction, and although it may
not eventuate in disturbing the title OF our
VIGOROUSLY fraudulent President, it will
serve to show the depth of the villaIny
practiced in order to foist upon the coun-
try a President never elected by the peo-
pie, and who is, to-day, with his guilty
knowledge and completely, as much
usurper as if he had seized the Presidency
by force and arms.
This may appear to some to be harsh
Judgment of "the mild-mannered gentle
man." who, by fraud alone presides in the
White House, but we can view his con-
duct in no other light. That he had
guilty knowledge upon the subject, is seen
in the promises and assurances of his most
intimate and confidential friends to the
men who perpetrated the frauds, that they
should be taken care of, and in the further
fact that all have been "taken care OF,
and appointed to lucrative Offices who IN
any way participated in those frauds
This, to our mind, is CONFIRMATION strong
as proof of holy writ.

The Outs VS.. the ms.

There was considerable excitement in
Baltimore on Monday, at the Republican
primaries. The Customhouse and Post
Office faction carried 16 out Of the 20
wards. In the 18th ward the "outs" pub
lished protest against the action of the
above faction, but at the election the Gins
polled 610 votes, while the "outs, with
two tickets, pollcd 487 votes. In the
evening, says The american, meeting of
the representatives of the defeated faction
was held, soon after the result was known,
on the northwest corner of Calvert and
Lexington streets. General Adam e.
King, Mr.. Jehu B. Askew, and several
others more or less prominent and lately
connected with either the Postofice or
Custom House were present. They de-
clared that they were beaten by "fraud,
and that the most proper thing would be
to send protest to the City Convention
against the seating of some of the dele
gates.

Threatened Indian Hostilities.

Thirty or forty whites at White Horse
Meadows, in Grant county, Oregon, are
reported to be threatened by force of
Bannocks, and the Winnemucca mounted
volunteers have left Camp McDermont for
their assistance Major nowpey, on the
way with his command to Sheep Rancho,
Idaho, has been orderd to return to Fort
Harvey, in consequence of news that Ed
gar, Piute chief, has taken the field at
the head of four hundred warriors who
have left the Matthews agency. Tambl-
ago, an Indian under sentence Of death
for murder, says the plan of the Bannocks,
who are led by Buffalo Horn, was to rem
devious at Juniper Mountain and Sheep
Rancho, get the Piutes to join them, and
then 90 north to the Salmon river. The
settlers at Bruneau and its vicinity, have
gone to Boise City for safety. The settlers
along 60 miles of Boise City and Carson
City stage road, in Baker county, Oregon,
have also sought places of safety. The
President and Secretary of War had con-
ference on Saturday on the subject of the
Indian troubles, and it was agreed to grant
the request of the Governor of Oregon to
supply the settlers on the eastern frontier
of that State with arms and ammunition.
Meantime preparations for the campaign
against the Indians are going on actively in
the military Division Oft the Pacific, Its be-
lieyed that all the tribes in Southern Idaho
and Eastern Oregon are now hostile, and
that they will be able to muster 1000
fighting men. General Towards scouts
report that the Indians are concentrating
in large force at Stems mountain, and the
General is moving his troops in that d.
rection.
The Banuocks and Piutes, who are
threatening the Government with another
Indian war, appear, from the latest des-
patches, to have gathered in Southern Ore
gon, in mountainous lake country, sparse
" settled. Winnemucca, from which the
news comes, is town ofone thousand ln-
habitants. in Nevada, and the Indians are
gathered in corner of Oregon, between
Boise City, Idaho, and Winnemucca.-
From an examination of the maps, together
with the dispatches, it is evident that
there are several bands of Indians, widely
separated, and unless they succeed in form
ing junction, they may in turn be brought
to terms without much trouble. In the
uncertainty of the situation, however, the
settlers on the frontier are abandoning
their sheep ranches and seeking safety IN
the forts. 1t also appears, from late des-
patches, that the present uprising has been
contemplated for some time, and that the
Indians intend, or intended, to go to the
Salmon river country, Idaho, near the Nez
Perces reservation, where the war began
last year. :,
The hostile Indians in Oregon have raid
ed the Burnt River region, stole twenty
two horses, and perhaps done more serious
mischief. A Boise City, Idaho, despatch
