Administrative Policy and the Results.

The action OF the Court of Appeals of the
State of Louisiana, in the case of Thos. C.
Anderson, one CT the members of the Re-
turning Board, determining that the charge
of forgery in the returns of one of the Par
ishes was not sustained, and releasing him
from custody, is cause for general congratu-
lation. The decision in this case ends the
prosecution of other members Of the Re-
turning Board. OF course the extreme men
who instigated the persecution are not sat
isfcd, but that is not the prevalent senti-
ment in that State. Not only in Louisiana,
but everywhere throughout the Union, COR
sentative men Of both parties regretted the
further agitation Of the Presidential COM
plications, and the decision Of the Court of
Appeals is hailed with universal satisfac-
ton. 1t is more expressive than a pardon
from Governor Nichols In that it removes
all stigma Of crime. and Anderson stands
indicated by the highest judicial authority
in that State.
As pertinent to this ann ouncement it is
matter of eonsratulation that the Governor,
State troops and citizens generally of South
Carolina are giving active aid and encour-
agement to the United States officials in
their prosecutions Of and search tor illicit
distilers, and every effort made to render
effective the laws of the United States.
These indications following Immediately
upon the result of the election in New
Hampshire, elsewhere noticed, give cheer
ing evidence that the policy OF the admins
tration is successfully being yindicated, and
that tie people of both sections are uniting
their efforts and aspirations for the peace
and quiet of the natione The President and
his cabinet have good cause for expressing
qualification and the whole country may
feel encouraged A. the propitious omen.

Tho markets have experienced very little change
since our last issue. Extra flour was very firm
yesterday at Us from the wagons. Wheat was quo
ted att IL to II. Corn at SIS and oats at 20.
The tendency in the markets in the eastern Cit
les was upwards, but it is not expected any great
advance will be realized. New York dealers were
buying largely of wheat, which would indicate
confidence in price. The unsettled condition OF
European affairs, growing out of the Russian
Turkish conditions OF peace, has contributed to
the depr essinp in prices. and az soon as the diff
ference is settled, whsther amicably or other
wise. we may reasonably expect more activity
and better prices.
