and on Wednesday trade was very
dull, although at the close some
important political news had the
effect of strengthening the views of
holders. Barley, maize and feeding
corn, except beans, which again
slightly favored sellers, sold slowly
at rather less money, but sales have
not been forced on any article, as
the opinion still prevails that poll
tics may at any moment exercise a
hardening tendency on prices.

An Alabama Poestoias Discon-
tinued.

Special to Cincinnati CONNER
cial PotInaster General Key to-day
ordered : discontlEuance of the
postoffice of Central Springs, Ala,
owing TO rebellion against
government agents. 1t is a
small place, but under the recent
law giving postmasters a commits
sion on stamp sales the Postmaster
there rag up his pay to 81, 400 in a
town of 800 inhabitants. Key sent
trusty agent (Williiams) there,
who found abundant evidence that
the Postmaster had sold stamps at
a heavy discount. The Postmaster
was arrested and bound over, but
not until attempts had been made
to brighten the agent by firing pis-
tolls and threats of revenge. Find
ing he would not scare, the Post
master had him arrested for libel
and bound over to appear at the
Circuit Court. Judge Key is indig
nant at this treatment of the special
agent by the Postmaster and his
friends, who had violated the law,
and he will allow the community to
do without a post office until these
lawless demonstrations are frowned
down,
If these are facts, we can but
commend the action of Judge Key.
The violators of law should be pun
ished wherever they may be. True
it is a hardship for the good and
true citizens in community to sui
fer for theIlmbecility and turbulence
of others.

An Immediate Settlement Desirable.

Referring TO the State debt prob
lem, the Athens Post remarks;
When the Legislature meets, we
trust it will be with the determine
ton to agree upon an adjustment
of the State debt, and to levy a tax
sufficient for the emergency. The
question must be adjusted during
the session upon some terms, and
he is either a bad citizen or fool
who would throw obstacles in the
way. We take it for granted that
no intelligent or thoughtful mind
expects to see the incoming Legis-
lature adjourn without a final dis
position of the embarrassing ques-
ton, to the end that it may be lift
ed out of politics, and that certain
ty may take the place OF the uncer-
tainty and doubt now so hurtful TO
onr interests. In the meanwhile,
between this and the first OF Janua
ny, the press, at least the sensible
aud patriotic portion of it, can do
much good by impressing the pop
ular mind with the absolute neces-
sity for a speedy adjustment.

Sherman's Resumption Sheme.

Special to the Cincinnati Enquir-
er: Secretary Sherman's explana-
nation of his plan of resumption to
the Baltimore bankers to-day (the
full report of which has been tele-
graphed in the general press dis
patches) very pointedly explains
that his theory of resumption
means that the equalization of
greenbaciteFs with coin in resump-
ton. He does not consider the
question of any emergency which a
panic might make upon his gold re-
serves for the actual gold, but
holds clearly that when greenbacks
are at parity actual resumption is
accomplished. After all, it is only
theory, not Il fact. A New York
banker in the Enquirer office to-
night says: "Sherman's scheme is a
very pleasant deluslon; but just
wait until Jay Gould comes to the
front after the LIST of Janury next"

SCHEDULE.
N.&D. &C. SIR, Decatur Divis'n
The New Orleans Convention.

just now there is a general. anC
apparently spontaneous movement
Of the people, in favor OF few great
measures calculated to benefit the
whole country, but of imperative
necessity to the West and South.
Last week a large convention, com
posed of delegates from more than
twenty States. embracing nearly a
score of members and ex members
of Congress amongst its representa-
tive men, met at Chicago, and, after
two days deliberatioa, adopted a
series of resolutions in favor of
means calculated to bring immense
benefits to the country. These
means embraced (D the improve
ment of the Mississippi and its trib-
utaries, ~ the completion of the
Texas Pacific and the Northern Pa
cifc railroads, and (3) such encour-
agement 10 our foreign commerce
as would give TO the producers of
the MississippiValley easy access to
all the great markets of the world.
a friendly response to these ut
terances of the North west came
from the National Board of Trade
assembled at New York, and now
comes a signal for a national and
international convention TO be held
at New Orleans on the Sd Of Decem-
Der, to take action upon the same
subjects. The fact is, the Missis-
sippi Valley has grown into such
colossal proportions in the matter
OF population, wealth and produc-
tons, that it demands more extend
cd facilities for transportation-de-
mAnds that the government shall
extend To its people such iavors as
have hitherto Eeen exclusively Law
ished upon other divisions Of the
Worlds Republic. These senti-
ments appear everywhere in the
public press, in popular meetings,
in commercial and Industrial organ
izations, and finally in formal reso-
lutions adopted by representative
assemblies and conventions.
In spite of the fact that New Or
leans Was lately a plague stricken
city, and the shadow of death s
wing has just passed from over, her
convention of the 3d proXimo is
likely to be one of the largest and
most influential ever held ia the
West Delegates are being APP
pointed from a large number of
States and Territories, and the as
surance that strangers may visit the
Crescent City without fear of fever,
inclines all to 90. And they should
go. A thousand preventative men
should assemble IN New Orleans TO
proclaim TO Congress that the
Southwest he's rights which the rep
resentatives Of the whole country
arc bound to respect, The compile
ton OF the Texas Pacific is work
that interests, directly or directly,
every citizen of the United States,
and one of present and imperative
necessity TO twenty millions Of peo-
pie. Every city or town, large or
small, in all this great valley, and
away beyond to the shores Of the
Pacific and the Atlantic, should be
present by representatives TO send
forth, not a petition, but u demand
for justice to the West and South.

Hon. Geo. S. Houston, ex-Gover-
nor on Monday last received the
Democratic nomination for u. 5.
Senator from Alabama, almost
unanimously, and was elected by
the joint Legislature on Tuesday.
Three cheers for the Alabama dem
ocrats and for the Bald Eagle of
North Alabama. He well deserves
the honor, and proudly will old
Alabama boast in the years to come
that she owned and loved and hon
ored a statesman so able, so faith
tul, so honest. She never had a
better Governor and we predict
that his Senatorial career will be
equally honorable, brilliant and sat
isfactory.

Let us remind our Pulaski con
temporary that the Banner classifi
cation of 'low tax" does not imply
repGdiation, as was pretty plainly
set forth in the Banner letter elicit
ing information. 1t meant, in q
general way, a tax sufficiently low
to be consistent with an equitable
adjustment OF the State debt, and
we take it that the Giles county
Representatives elect will not object
to being classed in that connection.
Reputation finds no advocates in
the Banner office, and we do not en-
courage the sentiment in others
Banner.
"All right, Judge, all right. -
We accept the apology. Our Rep
reseDtatives will not object to that
kind of classification.

This gives the Democrats pIu
rality of 26 over the Republicans,
and clear majority of q over all.
And then it must be borne IN mind
that the Greenback members, who
have heretofore been Democrats,
may be counted on to vote on the
Democratic size on all party ques
tions. In case of the Presidential
election going into the House, the
vote by States-each State count
ing as unit, will require 20 for a
majority, the whole number being
80. In such event the Democrats
will have one majority. So much
for the situation as it stands at

The Memphis Avalanche makes a
wrong deduction from the late con

Now that the returns are all in
the Republican victories in the
Eastern States are beginning to
dwindle into something resembling
an old fashioned defeat. The ma.
jority over the Republican caldi
date for Governor in Pennsylvania
uniting the Democratic and Green
back votes, is 62,904. Had the OPP
position to the Republican party
been united the result would have
been a sweeping victory. The Re
publican managers can not count
very confidently on Pennsylvania
in 1880.
