fisheries question. We gave it as our
opinion sometime ago, that the
United States should. stand by the
stipulations Of the treaty, and should
pay the smoEat awarded. and We see
as Jet no reason to. change Our
opinion. We do not believe that
there is anything to be gained by
Teopening OF the whole fishery ques-

shat Secretary Evarts ought to know
more about these things than We do.

Elections were held in thirty one
States Tuesday, and while returns
are as yet meager. enough Is known
to show that for the first time in more
than ten years the Republicans have
made heavy gains the "off year"
The South, owifg TO the shotgun
policy, is OF course almost solidly
Democratic. and the complexion OF
the next House OF Representatives
cannot be definitely determined until
the full returns are in; but 1t is GER
tain that the Republicans have made
large gains.
New York, which gave Tilden more
than thirty thousand majority, has
been redeemed. Both branches OF
the Legislature are Republican. and
the Republicans probably gain six
members of Congress.
Connecticut, which has been reiia-
bly, Desnocrxtic for a number of years,
returns to the Republican fotd and
elects Republican Legislature. thus
securing a Republican United States
Senator. In Massachusetts, Ben But.
Ter and his Democratic Greenback
allies are buried beyond the hope OF
resurrection.
Michigan polls large Greenback
vote, but the Republicans arc sue
cessful. Wisconsin. Illinois, Mime
sofa. Kansas and Nebraska all keep
step to Republican music. In Chica-
60 and Cook cou0ty the Republicans
elect their eotire ticket and three
members OF Congress.
Later returns may somewhat
change results as they now appear.
Bat enough is known to show that
people are waking up to a realization
OF the fact that only through the Re-
publican party can the integrity and
prosperity OF the nation be main-
tanned, and in 1880 We shall sweep
the country by majority too big to
count.

THE BOND COURT.

The bill introduced into the House by
Mr. Callison, to abolish the Bond Court
aud thus reopen the consolidated debt
question, was indefinitely postponed on
last Monday by vote of 81 yeas to SO
nays. This action Of the House seems
to settle the bond question, 80 lar as it is
connected with the Bond Court, during
the present session Of the Legislature.
That is, the Court will now render de-
cision either in favor Of or against the
bonds. The report Of the Bond Commits
sion shows that large proportion of the
bonded debt Of the State consolidated
under the Act of 1873 was fraudulent,
and the determination of the people has
been to ,epudiate these fraudulent claims.
The valid debt Of the State and the
fraudulent portion of it were blended
promiscuously in the consolidated bonds
under the Act of 1873, and that, too, by
the corrupt Radical officials who then
held Office. The Bond Court was not
established to determine whether or not
the State should pay the fraudulent debt,
but to separate it as far as possible fror,
the valid. In other words, the functions
of this Court are to ascertain the valid
debt of the State, and having rendered
its decision its powers terminate. The
coordinate department Of government
must then act upon its decisions. Now,
suppose that the Bond Court, from til.
want of testimony or from false testi-
mony, should decide against bond that
was just and valid, and this, after the
rendition of the decision, should be made
so clear that no doubt could be enter
taincd, would it not be the duty Of the
Legislature by law to make provision for
the payment of that just debt? Would
not honor and justice require that it
should be paid. In such case as this
the honor Of the State would indeed be
involved. Again, 1T us suppose that the
Bond Court from like causes should pro-
nounce certain bonds valid, which were
clearly and msnifestly fraudulent, what
then would be the duty of the Legisla-
ture7 We think to refuse to pay one
cent of them. The honor of the State
demands that fraudulent claims shall not
be foisted upon the thousands of toiling
taxpayers, who already have rs great
burden Us they can betr and immutable
justice forbids that the poor man, the
widow and orphan, shall have the last
aero Of land taken from them, and the
last shingle from over their heads, to
pny unjust and fraudulent claims. If
these fraudulent millions are imposed
upon the people, then hundreds of the
poor will be turned out of house and
home to pay them. We think it the
duty of the Legislature to protect tho
people, and we bellows they will do SO
by refusing to levy any tax for the pay
ment of the interest on the consolidated
bonds. This is to bo regretted, as the
holders of valid bon will be unable to
obtain the interest due them until the
good bonds can be separated from the
fraudulent, but it is certainly not the
fault of the Taxpayers that thia state of
things exists.

SMALL's BRIBERY CAsE.-The WASH
ington correspondent of the Baltimore
Sun says:
Several days ago, through his counsel,
Robert Smalls, the colored Congressman
from South Carolina, made application
to Chief Justice Waite for writ of error
in his case to the Supreme Court of South
Carolina. Smalls was tried and con-
victed in the State Courts on charge of
bribery and corruption and sentenced to
imprisonment in the penitentary. He
made application to the State Courts.
under section Gal of the revised statutes,
for removal Of tho cause to the United
States Circuit Court. This application
was decided, and hence the appeal to the
Supreme Court of the United States. Day
before yesterday 1t was announced that
the Chief Justice had refused 10 grant the
writ, and yesterday it was ANNOUNCED that
he had granted it. Both these statements
were unauthorized. The Chief Justice
made up his decision to. day, and directed
an order for the writ of error to be issued.
1t is understood unofficially that the Chief
Justice was not altogether clear as to the
propriety of granting the writ of error, rs
1t was not conclusively demonstrated that
tho case came r.cne-ly within the nrnvis-
ions of section Gal. But it has long been
the practice of the Justices of the Supreme
Court, as laid down by that eminent
jurist, the late Mr. Justice Nelson, to
give in such cases the benefit of the
doubt to tho applicant. The writ as
| les ned ie not made returnabie until the
next term of the court, which does not
begin until next October. If proceed
ings stop until the return of the writ the
effect would be to leave Mr.. Smalls un-
disturbed in person and in mint, for
! twelve months. But it is in the power
of the autharities of the State OF South
Carolina, if 90 disposed, to reach
speedier determination of the case by
the Supreme Court. In cr parte Russell,
reported in Thirteenth Wallace. the
Supreme Court decided that case made
returnable at the next term could be
docketed at the present term on mo-
.inn tn diGmiss for want OF Jurisdiction
or for frivolous appeal. This, therefore,
/ piacos 1t In tho power Of the Attorney
General Of South Carolina TO make a
motion at once which will bring the case
before the court on it's inertia.
