RoME. February S.-All dispatches indi-
cate that the cardinals will be unmo1ested
and free in their selection of the Pope.
King HumbeTt and all foreign ministers
appear to have paid proper, and III some
instances tender, respect TO the departure OF
Pope Plus TX. Rome is tranquil. The
police prevent all approach to the Vatican,
where the sacred Conelaye is in session.
The Conclaye will assemble Immediately
at the Vatican. Pope Plus TX. ieftinstruc-
tions, which will be unsealed to-day and
read in the presence of the corpse by the
chamberlain to all the cardinals now here.
Probably the hall OF the Consistory will be
chosen for holding the ballot for the new
Pope. Prince Chigi, marshal Of the Con-
clave, has assumed his functions and given
orders for the customary walling up OF
doors OF communication and the removal OF
persons now living on the same floor on
which the Conclave assemblies. The foreign
cardinals have already been informed of the
meeting of the Conclaye. The French car
dinals arc expected to reach here to-mor-
row, and the Austrian and Spanish cardi-
nails on Sunday and Monday. Nothing has
vet been decided regarding the remains
lying in state. Cardinal Vicaro in announ-
cling the death of the Pope says his funeral
will be celebrated at ST.. Peters cathedral,
and orders prayers for the deceased.

CfcLoSE.-Augusta Ca, February s.
At Z O'Clock last night the city was visited
with shower OF hail, followed by rain
storm, accompanied by thunder and light
ming. There was q rumbllng and tremor
similar to that of slight earthquake. The
storm passed away, but was followed by a
cyclone which left destruction in its path.
Little after / O'Clock this morning the
cyclone struck the city in the southwest
near Centre street, and demolished many
houses. The lower market-house, large
structure in the middle of Broad street, was
literally lifted and smashed into atoms.
Several brick and wooden buildings are
wholly or partly destroyed. The cyclone
travelled from southwest to northeast, and
covered space about three hundred yards
wide. Some casualties are reported.

THE Mexican muddle has taken a
new and unexpected phase. A force
of 1000 or 5000 Mexican troops which
was at firstsupposed to have amuch less
amicable mission, has arrived on the
Rio Grande, and their commander no
titles General Ord, of the United States
army, that they have come to help
stop the cattle stealing raids into
Mexico which have been making so
much trouble. The Mexican govern
ment has always professed desire to
cooperate with ours inrestoring order
on the borders, but this is the first APP
parently honest step it has taken, and
as it is announced that the force has
already dispersed several bands of
marauding Indians, it looks as though
something might come of it.

WE should be glad to see some of
the features of the Scottish law intro
duced into this country. All the d.
rectors and officers of the Glasgow bank
have been committed for trial, as they
could not be bailed unless by consent
of the prosecution, and this consent
was withheld. They must be tried
within four months, and they will soon
be engaged in public (penaD service.

WISCONSIN LEGISLATURE.

The next Legislature of Wisconsin
will be Republican by l.ealthy ma
iority and we trust that change for
the better will be made in the matter
of legislative expenditures as COM
pared with the expenses incurred by
the legislature of 1878 when the oppo-
sition had control of the Assembly.
Let Republican members show by their
actions and votes that the confidence
of the people has not been misplaced
and victory in 1879 can be the more
easily won; show the people that not
withstanding the many protestations
of reform 50 profusely made by the
opposition that genuine reform IS
found only within the ranks of that
rsInd old party which has already
done more for the cause of humanity
than any party of a political nature
that has ever existed. AS rule Re-
publicans put forward some of their
best men as candidates for legislative
honOrs during the recent campaign
and the coming session will doubtless
equal, if it does not excel, previous ses-
sions in tie ability and legislative ex-
perience of it's members. Should any
steals pass through the Legislature
during the coming winter in the shape
of appropriations to satisfy the print
ing claims of Calkins, Carpenter and
Proudft, the Fox and Wisconsin River
Improvement claim of Morgan l.. Mar
tin, for the renewal of the steam road
! wagon bounty, or anything of a IKE
| nature, they will be justly charged III
| against the Republican party and viii
re,, ct against it. as the people are now
in no mood to pay large claims for
monav from the State treasury when
those claims a, "a founded neither upon
law or equity.
