sTALwARTs NOT WANTED.

As the president of Republican conventions
In Michigan, CHANDLER can do little harm,
and even less good. But such men are not
wanted IN the public service now Happily
for the cause of union and fraternity they are
being retired by the people, and giving place
to better, wiser, and safer men.-Lynchburq
PiTgiHian.
IAN honest confession Is good for the soul !"
and our Lynchburg contemporary must
enjoy very peaceful frame of mind after
the above pious ebullitiOn. Such men as
honest and fearless "old ZACH CHANDLER"
as some people irreverently term him, "are
not wanted in the public service now" By
whom are they not wanted? By those who
were either in the rebellion of 1861, or gave
II aid and comfort at respectful distance
All these hate such true and courageous
men rs Mr. CHANDLER. lie was in their
way during the rebellion for his active
loyalty on the floor of Congress- his brave
and wise counsels during that struggle, his
unrelenting hatred OF everything disloyal
and reasonable toward his country, and his
firm devotion to the principles and laws of
reconstruction, have all cOnspired to make
him unpopular with those who have
trained on the other side during the last
seventeen years. No rebel during the war,
no sympathizer with that side since the
war, no Southern man who has been trap
ping for the present Administration during
the past year, has any use for Mr., CHAND-
LER, for he has been, and still is, in their
way. They find him an obstacle to the full
accomplishment Of their sectional ends, and
he is not wanted in the public service by
such, whether they are located North or
South.
So long as IN American citizen is deprived
of his rights as such by the traditional feel
ing that led to and prosecuted the rebellion

black or white, is prevented by menace and
violence from free exercise of his senti.

THE nI-MErALIC CoNrERENCE.

| The question becomes somewhat impor-
tant under all the circumstances of the
| case, what line of action Ex-senator Fen
Ton will adopt for himself when he enters
upon his official duties as a member of the
International Monetary Commission. Will
he represent the popular sentiment of the
country, and of that body which passed the
law under which he was appointed, or will
he follow his individual predilcction, til c
views of the Executive and the behcsts of
the gold power Of the country, in his capac-
ity as n Commissioner? Should he follow
the latter course, he will do all in his power
to defeat the permanent establishment of
the double standard by international agree
mcnt, and thus render the law which
brought him into official existence, entirely
nugatory.
While we raise this question now, under
knowledge of what Mr. FENToN's senti-
ments are, we are reluctant to believe that
he will set ut defiance the known will of
Congress and the people on this question
when he comes to act under the RESPONSE
bilities Of his official position. The only OBJ
lection urged against Mr. FESToS 5 appoint
ment was his want of sympathy with the
principles Of the law under which he re-
ceived his appointment. In that view Of
tho case it was Il matter of great surprise
that the President should have made the
appointment. 1t was due to the law and to
the sentiment which created il that il should
be administered by lbs friends and not by
its enemies, and this appointment wears the
semblance on the part of the Executive of u
purpose to rebuke Congress for passing the
law over his veto, and, If possible, to defeat
the wishes and will of the law making
power and the popular sentiment of the
country on that important question.
II now remains TO be seen whether the
purposes of the law which invited this con-
ference shall suffer defeat. The following
is its text:
The President shall invite the governments
of the countries comprising the Latin Union,
so-called, and Of such other European nations
as he may deem advisable, TO JOIN the United
states in conference to adopt common ratio
between gold and silver, for the purpose Of es-
tablishing internationally the use of a bi-mc-
tallic money, and securing a fxity or relative
value between these metals.
We hold as a matter of principle, based
upon consistency and honor, that no repre-
sentative should have been placed on that
commission who is hostile In any degree to
its primary and ultimate purposes 1t is
unjust to the law ITSELF as we'll as to Con-
gress and the well known popular will, to
prejudice its interests by placing them
within the power Of embarrassment if not
Of absolute defeat. In every other respect
the appointment of Mr.. FEYToN is unex-
ceptionable, but under the circumstances it
is exceedingly unfortunate to the appoint
ing power, inasmuch as it may be con-
strued as studied determination on its
part to have the peculiar views of the
President and the commissioner represented
in the conference, instead of the intents of
the law and the sentiment of the country,

Sin As matter Of personal information, and

BY the Democratic party, win you please inform
the public II these institutions have been abolished
BY the State governments Legislatures or Florida
louisiana, aud south Carolina, now under com.
plete control OF the Democrats. Since according
TO their estimate, these supervisory boards are
helnous and outrageous presume they have to-
gethcr with all laws pertaining to them, been
wiped out of existence, II this Is a fact, ain OF
the opinion that the Information would be of In.
terSst TO the public in general as well as myself
Yours truly, T. J.B.
THE laws referred to are still in force, and Il
may as will DO explained right here, that they
are not dissmilar in any material respect to the
laws providing for boards of State Canyassers in
many Of the Northern States. They were intended
to give the supervising state authorities power to
prevent the final recording Of illegal results from
counties parishes, or districts wherein any voter,
white or black, Republican or Democratic, may he
intimidated from voting. The Democrats will be
reluctant to part with this supervisory power; but
complaints regarding Its exercise will in the future
amount to nothing, as they will proceed only from
crushed Republicans.-ED. NAT. REPl
