To the Editor Of the Free Press and Times
The St. Adams Messenger editorially as
sumes that Mr.. Barlow's candidacy is so IA
vOrably considered, throughout the District,
that the friends of all the other candidates,
are nearly at the point of throwing up the
SPONGE
Now, sir, it seems to me. from all that |
can gather from prominent men in different
parts of the District, that the current has
entirely changed within the last few weeks.
At the start, Mr.. Barlow's candidacy did
seem formidable but only 50, because it
was well understood that he and his friends
were great political managers. had any
amount Of money, and that all far means. at
least, would be resorted to, to secure his
nomination. In fact the announcement of
his candidacy, On account Of his known bold !,
determined, and often successful manner of
conducting political campaigns, and man
aging mail contracts. and men and money,
intimidated not only the masses, but the
Press, to such an extent that they inconsid-
erately conceded thit he was likely to sue
coed. But after time for reflection and
an interchange of views, very
much different conclusion has been ar
rived at, and it seems quite probable now
that if Mr.. Barlow has good judgment he
will ere long retire from the field. Nothing
is said now Of his strength as candidate,
except by the Messenger. We hear only ex
pressions of wonder that he should have
been so inconsiderate as to undertake to force
himself upon the people.
have inquired of gentlemen from differ
ent parts Of the District. in reference t. his
prospect of support in their respective locali-
ties, and in no instance has any one conced-
Cd to him any considerable following, out
side Of franklin county, and in most in
stances their answers have been substantial
ly that their communities were shocked at
the affront of his candidacy, and would un
der no circumstances support him.
Let US carefully survey the field and see
how the matter stands. Should the delegates
to the District Convention be apportioned
upon the same basis that they were for the
State Convention, there would be 30 in all,

requiring. II all the towns are fully repre-
scented, log votes to secure nomination.
Now, it seems to DO generally conceded
that Gen. Grout will have the entire vote of
Essex and Orleans counties, (G4) and if so,
IL votes only, from other parts of the Dis
trict, would be required to secure hi' nomin-
alton. 1t docs not seem probable that he
can fall short Of that number. Many, whose
opinions are entitled to weight ,concedo to him
nearly the entire vote of Chittenden county,
as against the present candidates, while
those with good facilities for Judging cor
rcctly, count u large share Of Lamoilc coun-
ty for him. Hence it seems probable that
he will receive the nomination by a consider
able majority, should he receive no votes
from Franklin or Grand Isle counties, neither
Of which can be set down at a unit against
him, especially if the friends of Mr.. Sowles
should decide not To press his candidacy.
Mr.. Barlow's strength will probably be,
saw, two-thrd4 of franklin county and a
few votes from each of the counties of Chit
tenden and Lamoille, not likely to exceed
sixty in all.
Even if Gen Grout should not receive the
nomination on the first ballot, ! apprchend
that Mr.. Barlows chances of ultimate sue
cess will not thereby be improved, Should
Mr.. Sowles receive from Franklin, Chitten-
den, Lamoilo and Grand Isle counties
does, which is moro likely to be the case than
that Mr.. Barlow will receive any consider
able number Of votes. except from Franklin
county, the contest will then be between Mr..
SOwles and Gon. Grout.
But there il another view Of the case
which is rrognostcatei by some, but which
is no moro favorable to Mr.. Barlow's sue
cess. viz, that new candidate will be
brought into the field, who will secure the
unanimous support Of the Chttenden county
delegation, against either of the three can
didates numed. The contest would then DO
between Gen. Grout, Mr.. Sowlcs and the
new candidate, whoever he might be. as
suci delegates would, in the end, be sure to
unite upon some suitable man.
Hoping that some Republican of capacity,
integrity and morality will receive the nom
nation and election.

The Army bill was finally passed by the
Senate. on Saturday, after day spent in de-
batting the last section, prohibiting the use
of the Army as posse comitatus. which was
adopted, the Democrats having secured the
aid of four Republican Senators. As passed,
this clause of the bill reads as follows:
From and after the passage Of this act ii
shall not be lawful to employ any part Of the
Army of the United States as posse conn.
tatus, or otherwise, for tho purpose of exc
cutting the laws, except in such cases and
under such circumstances as such employ
ment of said furce may be authorized by the
Constitution or by act of Congress, and no
money appropriated by this act shall be used
to pay any OF the expenses incurred in the
employment Of any troops in violation Of
this section.
Mr.. Eimunds said of this section
during tho debate, that had it been
in force in April, 1861, President
Lincoln and those associated with him
who undertook to hold Fort Sumter
and protect the property of the United
States would have been liable to be sent to
the penltentiary. Should the section be re-
tanned in the bill. and a mob assault the
Treasury department and attempt to get pos
session of it, the President of the United
States could not send for the marine corps or
little handful Of men at the arsenal to pro-
teet it, because there was no special law au-
thorizing him to do so. Again, if anybody
should attempt to dispossess the chief magis-
trate of his Office, he would have no right TO
call upon the army, as its commander in
chief, to protect his rights.
The Senate refused to consent to the re-
duction of the army to 10000, enacted bv
the House.

IT may be added to what has already
appeared in our colu ms, in reference to the
case Of Mr.. Hubbard, United States Register
of Bankruptcy in Chicago, that the despatch
reference to the case, gave a grossly false
idea of the report made to the Chicago Bar
Association. The committee was appointed
to inquire into "the workings of the bank
rupt law" aud not TO investigate Mr..
Hibbard's Office or character The attack
made upon him in the report was wholly
uncalled for but it was less outrageous
than it was represented to be In the des-
patch. 1t made no charge of corruption or
perjury or of any malfeasance, other than
the charging Of excessive fees by the Regis
ter, and the omission to report the entire
amount of fees received. Both these charges
are squarely met by Mr.. IIibbard's letter
His reports did not profess to state the en-
tire amount of fees received, and no state
ment of the entire amount was required Of
him. The assertion that his fees were ex-
cessiye, would Of course have little weight
with those who know that any party az
grieyed by the amount of fees charged in any
bankruptcy case, may have them passed upon
and reduced, if excessive, by the court.
That no erroneous charge has ever been
made. in the thousands Of cases which have
passed through the Register Office, is not
asserted by him; but it is asserted, and
proved, that the errors have most Of them
been omissions to charge fees which might
have Leen legally charged. In the very
cases alluded to 10 the report of the COM
mittee, it has been since shown to the salts
faction of the Bar Association, that the
Register had not received more fees than
he was entitled to. The report, whatever
were the motives Of its authors, has fallen fiat
IN Chicago. 1t never made any sensation
there, where Mr.. Hibbard is best known
and OF the prominent Chicago dailies, but one,
the disreputable Chicago Times, published
the report or made any criticism whatever
upon Mr.. IIibbard. The Chicago Legal
Ne'os says editorially Of him
During Mr.. IIibbard's term, he has
handled millions Of dollars and, with the
exception of this question of fees, his in
tegrity has never been questioned No one
charges him of being member of any ring,
or OF being interested in property passing
in review before him. IL il known to those
who are familiar with the costs in the
various Federal Courts, that the registers in
New Orleans. New York, and Detroit tax
greater fees than those of Illinois.
These are facts and no friend of Mr..
Ilibbard need he disturbed for moment bv
tie thought that his standing as an up
T ght official and honest man has been in
the least impaired by the malicious report
Of partisan committee.

lr can MT be clllel Withdrawing his
name, for it had lot been entered in the
canvass hut it is now formally announced
that Hon. John W. Stewart will not allow
his friend, to push the matter Of his nomin-
ion to Congress, in the First District.
Thia, We suppose, leaves the way clear to
Col. Jryce's nomination to a third term,
and avoids the bitter struggle that was other
wise inevitable. In many respects Col.
joyce will d. better service for his constit-
utents, the next two years, than any new

tion to assure them of his integrity. Doubt
less nothing further will be heard OF the re-

TnE failure of the Women's Hotel. in New
York. was not due to the rigid regulations.
The few occupants of rooms in the hotel
found no fault with the rules as whole,
though some of them were perhaps need
lessly restrictive. 1t was not due to the ex-
clusion of the other sex. Gentlemen were
permitted to call on the guests Of the hotel,
under no greater restrictions than would be
enforced in most respectable boarding
houses. of course it was not due to the i'm
pudent reason assigned by Mr.. Hilton, that
every unmarried woman is looking for n
husband, and won't and can't be kept away
from the men. 1t was due to the extrava-
giant cost of the structure, and extrayagant
expense Of maintaining it on the plan upon
which it opened. Few working women"
find velvet carpets, the costliest furniture
and luxurious table indispensable to their
comfort. They would rather pay less for
neat and comfortable but less expensive sur
roundings and less costly fare. The hotel
cast four millions. Had it been made to
cost third less and the other million been
invested to help pay running expenses the
fare and attendance been made less expen-
sve; and the price put down to four dollars
a week, we have no doubt that the hotel
would have proved not profitable invest
mcnt, which Mr.. Stewart did not expect or
intend it should he. but successful, pOpu-
lar and beneiicent institution.

The story of the existence of secret COM
pact between the ex-Confederates 10 the last
Congress to sustain the decision Of the Elec-
toral Commission, and to discountenancc a
new Democratic rebellion to seat Mr.. Tilden,
told By Senator Hill, Of Georgia, is altogeth-
err credible, and doubtless truthful. Our
Southern brethren got enough of fighting for
one generation. They discovered in the last
war not only that the NOrtherners could and
would fight for the Union, but that in a trial
of force the South was the weaker section.
With some of them, VIC doubt not, submis-
sion was genuine return to allegiance to
the Government With more, We fear, it
was a mere yielding to the inevitable for the
time being, in the hope and with the deter
mination to pay off their score with their
conquerors in another way. If they can
once more secure control of the country they
need not to rebel; and We have no doubt
that those even who would welcome another
civil war, propose to wait and fix things so
that next time the South shall have the
Government and the Northerners will be the
rebels. The Southern Congressman would
not encouraged fresh outbreak of the war to
seat Mr.. Tilden. They will not encourage
a civil war to unscat Mr.. Hayes for they
believe that by waiting three years they can
gain all that they could gain by fight
ing, and more. And their belief is not
without grounds. The Democrats will
soon control the Senate. If they carry
the next House, they will seat Democrat
as President, whether elected or not The
Importance Of the coming Congressional
elections can hardly be overestimated. 1t
is of the utmost importance not only that
the Republicans carry majority Of the
members of the next House, but that the
members 50 carried be men OF the utmost
reliability, as Republicans and as men.
