\ course now with the course they took eighteen
years ago. Men in the North ask what is the
meaning of this solidity; what the underiy-
| ing purpose of this suppression OF the health
| full law of politics which in all self-gOyernlng
communities divides the people into two OF
more parties. Once there was an excusc-the
need of good local governments, the
desire TO throw off the rule of Ignorant
and venal elements, and later, in States
that had attained this end, q warm
sympathy with others struggling toward 1t.
Thousands of patriotic and independent men
in the North, believing that the grievances
complained of as the result of Ignorant
suffrage were real, gave their sympathy and
aid to place the State Governments OF the
South in the hands of the intelligent and re-
spOnsible classes. But the effort Tor this end
succeeded long ago. Every State III the
South is ruled by the white prOperty-Owning
class. All interference from National author
ity ceased long since, and even the wholesome
Federal election laws are practically NULL
fed. But still the South IS as solid as ever.
Home rule is not enough; nothing will suf-
flee short of complete power in the National
Government. The South wants TO rule the
whole country rs it ruled it before the war.
1t is this menace of a new era Of Southern
domination that sets people at the North read
ing about the old period when the South held
sway and the terrible civil war that grew out
OF it. Not that there is any fear OF new
war. Ii is the furthest possible from the
thoughts and wishes of Southern politicians
to make another attempt to rend the country
asunder, but people suspect that their success
in their effort to grasp the control OF the
Government would be declared justification
Of the rebellion, and they want to get a clear
idea of what it is proposed to justify. There
are no longer any Southern grievances to be
rcdressed, nor are any special theories OF gov
eminent or plans of public policy advanced
Ivy Southern statesmen. The sOlidity of their
followers is not to defend their rights or
maintain their interests They are so ar
dent and eager for success, so united,
determined and vehement that there must be,
it would seem, some motive other than am
biOn for place and power. Is not that motive
q desire to alter the verdict of history and
make it appear that the sober second thought
of the American people has in the end APP
proved the rebellion as right, by placing the
Government under the rule Of the men who
sought its destruction? This is the question
that stimulates the reading of the chronicles
of Slavery and Secession.

that the dominant party in the House Is ready
for struggle with the President upon the
election laws, though not more ready Tor the
contest, we venture TO say, than the President
himselfiS. The chief difference OF opinion devel-
oped in the caucus was as to the method OF oe-
ginning, one faction advocating the immediate
reGnactment Of the appropriation bills Whch
failed, and another urging that the political
legislation proposed be frs embodied in sep

The venerable Archbishop of Cincinnati
makes pathetic appeal to his friends III all
parts of the world to aid him in his present
distress. He places the amount of the debt at
81 900, 900, which is a much smaller figure
than that which rumOT has generally assigned.
While there has been a difference of opinion
within the Catholic Church respecting the
propriety of an official movement i'll the Arch
bishops behalf, there can be no question, in
view of the sentiment which showed itself
during the discussion, that there will be a
wide response to this plea for help.

That rosy atmosphere of universal goodwill and
pedestrian amiablity which surrounded the closing
hours of the great walking contest has been sud
denly dis>ipatcd. The public is astOnished and
grieyed to fnd chat the rivals who, one short week
ago, were clasping each others hands amid the
ecstatic shrieks of thousands, and who were en-
lowed in popular estimation with every attribute
of virtue and benevolence, are really commonplace,
sordid creatures af err ALL The whole CONT
nent. we might say, was suffused with senti-
ment when Rowel and Ennis took the arms
of the weary Hartman and helped him
around the track. Women wept by the score
oil this touching spectacle, men shouted themselves
boarse over it, and the story was told, by Hash OF
wire, in every city in tho Union. 1t Is painful to
be COMPELLED to think that a man who can walk
$50 or 800 miles in Six days could do an ungen-
crous act, but such is the melancholy truth. These
three sentimental pilgrims agreed by their repre-
sentatives, during the walking, that each contes-
tant should receive So 900 out of the receipts be-
fore they were divided; this DONE it sup
posed as a kindness TO OLeaTy, who had I'M
doubtedly drawn the great crowds at the beginning
OF the race. But the walkers changed their minds,
and the amount was reduced to $1,000 and was
again reduced after the contest had ended to
nothing at all, leaving poor OLcary entirely
out in the cold. But like the manager of the match
whose emphatic remarks are reported elsewhere
We mourn, i'll this matter, chiefly over the moral
downfall of Hartman. For i'll Hartman was
bound up for six days the future of America lie
was our Admirable CrichtOn, the target of un-
bounded sympathy and goodwill, nnumerable tears
handkerchlefs and smiles; the whole country
yearned to know whether bis bsters would allow
him TO win his gate-money, and when he lmped
along with this purely commercial intent We
were told that he was a hero. And now to find that
the man who received all this aid and comfort re-
fused even very few dollars of this money so
heroicaly earned to the broken-dOwn OLeary!
II IS enough to cause us to reflect whether the
ethical features of these contests have not been
OverestImated, and whether it is safe to infer the
size If mans heart from the length of his legs.

The State of Texas is IL bad way financially.
Her people are not willing TO be taxed enough to
provide sufficient funds for carrying the State
Government supporting the penal and charitable
institutions and paying interest on a very moderate
debt aud every year since the Democrats thrust the
Republicans out of power there has been deficiency
which has been met by increasing the debt. THIS
Legislature and Governor are now pulling over
the problem OF paying expenses rs they go. The
only feasible plan they appear TO have Int upon is
30 practice a cheese-plrlng economy in apprcpTa-
tons and sell of the remnant OF the magnificent
domain of public lands ONCE owned by the State for
whatever sum ihcy VIII bring. There are alsosOme
schemes for pu ting special taxes railroads, and
various dsrcputable projects for ropudiating por-
ton of the debt and laying violent hands upon the
school fund lurking in the minds of the extreme
Rourbons. Ii is impossible 10 increase the general
levy for State purposes, which Is limited by the
Constitution. Texas thus presents the dIscredita-
bic spectacle Of great, growing State unable 10

frcsze-out and continued high winter. Last
night at all of the factories hands were held
in readiness for any emergency that might
occur, but. serious damage was not sppre-

canal yesterday. a number OF persons,
however, went down TO Duyafs millpond,

pended at Belle Island. The water thus far
has not seriously inconyenienced any Of the
parties living within the boundaries OF the
flooded district OF 1870 and 1877. Last
night the want OF the street-lamps was most
seriously felt. A Cimmerian darkness pre-

dreadful condition, making locomotion not
