SENATOR JONES IN LUCK AGAIN.-It
is said by the Chicago Inter-Ocean that
Senator Jones, Of Nevada, when he start
cd Tor the West in August, was, in his
own estimation, broken in fortune al
though hive years ago he was worth So
100000. The recent lift in mining stocks
has however, brought him in $500. 900.

NOBODY TO VoTE FoR.-The Repub-
licdn finds fault with the members of its
party for not offering to run for the nomi-
nation for candidates for the legislature,
The election, 1t says, was TO be held to-
day at the City Han, and not at the
several voting places, as had been usual.
But up to last night no candidates were
in the field, and the editor, in his lamen-
tations over the backwardness Of party
men, calls for help with such pathos as
is so often expressed for the poor fellow
who has met with misfortune and been
deserted by his friends. 1t is SO with
parties; when poor and needing help,
help is not proflered Here is the way
the Republican chides the halting men of
its party they all now prefer some one
else to bear the honors
"The Republicans who vote tomorrow
at the City Hall, from two to six o'clock,
will want somebody to vote for, and il is
certainly high time that some announce
NNlt WI sb llldl
the respective claims and fitness of each
may be duly canvassed. There was no
lack of candidates two years ago, but
where now are Henry C. Conrad, How
ard NJ. jenkins and John Green, who
contested for the position then Gentle
men, the party wants your services still.
1t wants them in defeat as well as victo-
ry, and those who decline now to lead,
when the clouds are dark and heavy
when the enemy is pressing hard upon
us, cannot expect to be the leaders when
sunshine bursts from behind the clouds
and victory is emblazoned upon our BAN
ners. Come, gentlemen, now is the time
the party wants your services"
They all back out. But the editor
stands at his post. There is no escape
for editors. We have gone through
far worse condition Of backwardness in
the Democratic party some three or four
times in our editorial experience.

THREE solid Democratic districts in
Ohio are in danger because Of the greed
and ambition of gentlemen who think
| they have been called by Heaven to draw
salary as Congressman. Alleged infor-
malties i'll nominating Conventions and a
so-called desire to purify" the party
have led to Independent movements
which may lose the Democrats three
members of Congress. In the Capital
District man named English is running
against Hon. George l.. Converse as an
Independent Democrat to be voted for
by Republicans. In the Seventh District
Steedman, who claims to have been a
candidate himself, is conducting a ma
licious crusade against lIurd and in the
Fifth District a lot of boiling Democrats
are fighting lie Fever. the regular nomi-
nee. 1t would be "A comforting thing to
| some people. no doubt, to have the con-
troll of the next House passed over to the
Republicans through this sort of malice
| and disorganizing greed. \ few gentle
men are trying to introduce this style of
politics into Maryland thi~tall. We have
| reason To believe that they will not sue

salary crusade. The temptation of such
high Congressional pay for nine months
service in u months is too great. cspc-
cially as the service is very small and. in
nine cases out Of ten since 1851 is per
formed by inferior men with cnormoul,
greed and very small capacity TO do any
thing worthy Of the peoples confidence
and esteem.

The Developments i'm the Electoral
Investigation.

TIES.
The Potter committee held short session
this morning, but owing to the absence of
Chairman Potter in New York and the non
attendance of Representative Springer, did
not transact any business. 1t is understood
among those for whom subpenaes have been
issued are Minister StoughtOn, at Russia
kaSSOn, at Austria and the mysterious New
orleans sfemale, Mrs. jerks, who, it is claimed,
has the original of the sherman letter. To
morrow the committee will again meet with
open doors, and Anderson will be crOsseXam-
!ned. The impression among the democrats
is that the committee has made good case
against Secretary Sherman. The republicans
generally say that they have not and that even
II Secretary Sherman did write the alleged
Anderson letter, that there is nothing in it, as
1t merely guaranteed the protection of the
government to Webber and Anderson that if
they, did their honest duty the government
would protect their lives SO far as 1t could.
when he had Secretary Sherman on the stand
he did not further press him concerning the
to wheh he H
ing the connection of Senator Matthews with
the witness Anderson Mr.. MacMahOn says
that there is one lOophole of escape left for
him, and that is for him to say that in all his
dealings with Anderson he was acting as an
attorney for other. parties. This WILL how
ever, compel him to disclose who were the
principals 1t is remarked that when the Wis
ltlng statesmen were in Louisiana the demo-
cratic committee advised the republican COM
mlttee TO meet with them and see to il that
there was fair count. Secretary Sherman
replied to this that they were merely in Louis
lana as lockers on, and any influence exerted
by either side to affect the result one way or
the other would bean unwarranted invasion
of state rights. The fact that Sherman ac
knOWledged before the committee on Satur-
day that he bad written many letters, now ap-
pears to the democrats strange in the light of
his reply to the democratic advisory commit
tee.
1t is stated that Senator Matthews says that
the correspondence between himself aud An
derSon is not submitted in chronological Or
der, and that after Anderson wrote MIN the
impudent letter he threatenedto kick him out
of his house
