RIGHT TRlUMPMS.

The Army Appropriation Bill had
a much larger majority in the lower
House of Congress than its friends
had even dared to hope for. The
vote stood 149 for and ~ against
the bill. All the Democrats and
ten of the Greenbackers veted Tor
the bill, while all the Republicans
and two OF the misunderstanding
low of Vermont, add FORSYTH, of
IIlinois-voted against it. Mr.. 1o-
cum. who sits tor this district until
the elec,ed member, EN-Gov. Cur
tin will be accorded his seat, voted
with the Democrats and thus went
SQuarely back oa his Republican
friends.
The provisions Of the hill prohibit
the presence of troops at election
polls. As the law now stands their
presence too, was prohibited, unless
it was necessary to repel the armed
enemies of the United states, or 70
keen the peace at the polls, lt VIII
be seen at a glance that this cum
nincly devised law enabled the Pre-
sident to keep regular troops at
election polls, under the thin pre-
text of keeping the peace, ana thus
unduiy influence, if not carry, any
election. AN laws that in the least
seek to influence the free choice OF
voters are very hateful to the Ameri-
can people. and the DSmocratlc
House but reflected the vote or the
country when it repealed the obnoXl-
Gus provision, or rather pretert, "or
to Keep the peace at the polls They
Just acted ont principle dear TO
every true American heart, namely
that the civil shall be superior to
the pilitaTy power.
The bill row goes to the Senate
where it viii pass of cOurse-that
bodynow being Democratic. Wheth-
er our de facto President, Nj. Hayes
will dare to veto o bill that was
passed by such q decided majority,
backed as it was by the almost unan-
imous voice o. the country remains

whether John Sherman can work
him up to a vetoing point.

A grand scheme has been devised
Tor putting fresh vigor into the re-
uubiican party Of the north. This
Is no less than the importation of
enough negroes from the south 10
carry the states of New I ork, ONO,
and Isdiana in 1880. The origlna-
tor of this grand scheme of political
colonization is o Colonel Hooker, of
New York. bIother-in-law of the
late James Fisk. He believes a
hundred thousand negroes properly
distributed would be enough for The
purpose. The rapidity with which
the colored people are emigratlng
from the south lie thinks would
make his plan easy of accomplish
ment. In this connection it is OBJ
served that those eminent phllan-
thropists, Vim. z. Chandler, Han
nibal Hamlin. George {. Gorham,
James A. Garfield, and A. NJ.
Clapp, have organized a National
Emigration society and have issued
a circular inviting contributors to
the funds of the association. In the
circular they say that the exodus of
coiored people from the south has
assumed proportions which chal-
lpnge the attention and anxious So
licitude of the country" They are
confident that 'the thousands that
have gone are pioneers OF the un-
numbered tho" sands that are likely
soon to follow"
The colored people deserve and
certainly will receive encourage
ment and sympathy in their efforts
to improve their condition by seek
ing out new homes in the fertile do
main of the west. But il this move
ment is to subject them again 10 the
Vaccinations and lntrigueS or the
politicians who are at the head or
this rational emigration society
they are to be profoundedly pltled.
The negroes of the south have hard
ly escaped erom the cunning and ra-
paciouS domination OF the carpet"
baggers until new schemes are set
afoot for exploiting them. Advan-
taCe is taken of their emigration to
the north to put them once more
under the control of the radical
leaders. When such men as VIM.
T.. Chandler, George g. Gorham
and A. nj. Clapp put themselves
at the head of the emigration of ne
groes the meaning Of the movement
is well understood. In their vocab.
ulary philanthropy has no other
meaning but party. But these new
schemes to subject the negroes to
party convrol are likely TO prove as
disastrous as their past adventures
in this Iine.-Pdtri0t.
