Judge Bradley T. Johnson argues, in an
elaborate paper in the American Law Re.
oieto for July, that the states of the Union
Tan be compelled by Judgment of the M.
tional supreme court, supported by The
force of the Union. to pay their debts when
they have practically repudiated them.
The Evening Post says: We are afraid
that the socialists blood thirstiness is in
exact proportion to their idleness. Soci
alism, idleness and beer have become in
separately linked in their minds When we
hear of socialist meeting held in n car.
penter's shop. or in II tailor's shop, the af.
fair will look more serious.
Judge Choate, of the United States dis.
trict court at New York, decides that
Chinaman bearing the name of Charles
Miller, man of property, cannot become
citizen of the United States. The early
laws upon the subject permitted naturali
zation to white aliens alone, while the lat
ter notifications have been made only to
extend the privilege to persons of African
blood, In Millers care there appears to
be some hardship. as he desires to purchase
real estate which. by the laws of New
York, an alien cannot hold.
The democratic national convention in
1880 is going to be lively affair if the
prognostications of General Ewing of Ohio
are correct. This alleged statesman saws
that he is confident that the opinions put
forth by the national party will triumph in
the next national democratic convention.
because most of the southern democrats
hold the same opinions. In 1876, at St
Louis, they were only interested in self
government and therefore allowed the
hard money eastern democrats to rule the
financial platform. But in 1880 they will
have strong opinions on the subject.

SPECIMEN INDIAN FRAUDs.-A dispatch
from Fort Thompson. Dakota, saws Indian
Commissioner Hoyt dropped in on the
Crow agency on the 18th instant without
notice. He obtained the books and papers
of Indian Inspector Hammond, and dis
covered frands and robbery unheard oil
even in Indian agencies. DR.. Livingston
is agent at Crow Greek, and he and Agent
Craven at Cheyenne and Gregory at Low

The r0bberies of Indians are traced back
to 1870. They built hotel n. the govern
ment expense and supplied it with beef.
potatoes. milk. grain and hay from the
government warehouse. Mr.. Hammond
discovered that the agency blacksmith
shop was the source Of private income !:
that the trader. clerk, head farmer. an
families of employees, were furnished with
government provisions; that trader Hud
sons wareho Use and store were stocked

Peace in Europe.

The Berlin congress concluded its labors
Saturday and the treaty of Berlin was sign
ed, one month after the congress began its
work. 1t did not of course consider at all
the Anglo-Turkish treaty by which Eng
land gets Cyprus and assumes a protecto-
rate over Asiatic Turkey.
Bessarabia, a region lying north of the
mouth of the Danube, was the occasion of
much discussion. Before the treaty of
Paris in 1856 the Russian boundary was
the Pruth and that part of the Danube
from the mouth of the Pruth to the Black
Sea. BY the treaty of Paris Russia gave
up" I"'So p'oVo vi and north OF that part
of the Danube which is east of the point
where it receives the river Pruth from the
north. This piece so given up, which is
bounded by the Black Sea on the east. the
Danube on the south, and the Pruth on the
west. is now restored to Russia.
The independence of Roumania is ac-
knowledged and its boundaries, though
restricted by the above named ccssion to
Russia are enlarged and made to embrace
the Dohrudja, that low lying land south
of the eastern part Of the Danube; and in
fact the Roumanian southern boundary
now runs nearly directly east of Silistria,
which lies on the Danube just before the
river makes lis great bend to the north, to
the Black Sea.
North of the line of the Balkan Noun
tains and south of the Danube were the
Turkish provinces of Servia and Bulgaria.
The full independence of Servia is ac-
knowledged. Bulgaria, which stretches
from Servia to the Black Sea, and has
been the scene of SO many horrible atroci-
ties becomes virtually selfgoverning. Ii
Will have Christian government and a
national militia but will pay tribute to
the Sultan and be in name Turkish prn.
cipality but the people will elect their own
prince subject to the approval by the
Porte and the Powers.
South of the Balkans the province Of
Eastern Roumelia is formed which is to be
under the direct political authority of the
Sultan but is to have Christian governor
general and to preserve internal order by
native and local militia. The governor
general who is to be appointed by the Sui |
tan with the approval of the Powers will |
have power to call on Turkish troops if |
security is menacod.
As to what has been northwestern Tur
key Austria is to occupy and administer
Bosnia and Herzegovina and the indie
pendence of Montenegro is recognized
There are also arrangements rs to Crete,
the navigation of the Danube and the
Greek frontier.
The Russians get pretty large slice of
land in Asia, securing Kars, Arabian and
Batum. The latter however is to be a free
port. The Russian possession of these
places under the Berlin treaty however is
such as to make Beaconsfed's Turkish
treaty operative.
Beaconsfield and Salisbury returned to
London arriving there yesterday afternoon.
Their reception was magnificent one
and England is to-day ready to assume the
great responsibilities the new protectorate
brings and to give Beaconsfeld her high
est honors for his diplomatic success. 1t
is thought that the premier will soon have
Parliament dissolved and a new election
ordered while his popularity is at its
height.

Barlow giving him delegates while there
are seven towns with II delegates yet to

majority.
There is some dispute about a few of the
Chittenden county delegates but we put
Shelburne for Grout and Jericho for Hen
dee and think the latter delegation will be
ant-Barlow. South Burline ton is the only
town in that county that yet has to choose
anu viii have two delegates. OF tie &c
chosen Circuit has 80, Barlow &c and Hen
dee 4. Circuit carried Westford by 8 ma
jority and Bolton by 10.
Counting the Jericho and johnson de le
cations as anti Barlow to the end and
counting the Ladd delegati, ms as likely to
go TO Barlow finally, in order to get the
nomination Mr.. Barlow will have to carry
the four remaining towns in Franklin,
Grand Isle and Chttenden counties; and
get twelve out of the seventeen remaining
delegates from Lamolle county or secure
some of the Essex county towns. That is
he must get % out of the Al remaining
delegates TO be elected. The result at the
present writing is like the Indians white
man, berry onsartin."
Meantime in Addison county some pro-
pose to bolt Mr.. Battell for senator and Mr..
Slade for state attorney. Mr.. Lucia will
be the candidate of the prohibitionists
against Mr.. Slade. There is talk too of n
bolt in Caledonia county.

evening by an appreciative audience
to witness Stanley in his celebrated

fall far below the Clement Brothers

were the musical glasses which were
very fine; the harp solos which were
excellent and Stanley who is always
