A Home Thrust.

In the United States Senate last week,
during the sharp debate on the removal of
the subordinate officers by the democratic
majority, in which some of the old secession
generals told how they came there aud left
in 1861, Hill, of Georgia. virtually placed
the matter in this way Yes, we are here,
in possession, and what are you going to do
about it Z" To him and others Senator
Conkling, of New York, thus replied al,
too, came to Washington in 1861. Abraham
Lincoln called me. 1t was a time of great
public exigency, and there were great
many vacant seats in the Senate. There were
many vacant chairs then that are occupied
now. Those who had them did not want
them. Then so much of the Senate as re.
manned after sedition, privy conspiracy and
rebellion, proposed to fill the vacancies, but
the Republican Senate then made but one
change, and that on account of treason to
the flag and now the subordinates of 1851
who deserted their former fields of useful
ness, are back, demanding to be put in theil
ante-bellum positions. Here they are, and
am willing to know that one of the reasons
why it is necessary that these places should
be made vacant is that this banished com
pany of former occupants have returned
They are coming back to join this hot and
famished chase of place-hunting. They
have come back to say, Moab is my wash
pot, over Edom have cast my shoe.'"

A Point Well Made.

In the House debate on the army bill, on
Saturday, General Garfield made powerful
speech, in the course of which he made a
good point, as follows; "What is our theory
of law2 1t is free consent. That is the
granite foundation of our whole structure.
Nothing in this republic can be law that
has not the free consent of the House, the
free consent of the Senate and the free con-
sent of the executive, or, if the executive
refuses his free consent, then it must have
the free consent of two-thirds Of each body.
Will anybody deny that; will anybody chal.
lenge line of that statement, that free con.
sent is the foundation rock of all institu.
tions 2 And yet the programme announced
two weeks ago was, that if the Senate re
fused to consent to the demand of the House
the government should stop. The PROPOSE
ton was then, and the programme is now
that, although there is not Senate to veto
there is still an independent factor in the
legislative power of the government, which
is to be coerced at the peril of the destruc
ton of the government 1t makes no differ
ence what your issue is. If it were thu
simplest and most inoffensive proposition
in the world, yet, If you demand. as a mat
ter of coercion, that it shall be put in, ever,
fair-minded Republican in America woul'
be bound to resist it as much as though hi
life depended on his resistance"

More Blunders.

The democratic majority in the Senate
makes as bad work as was made in the
House in the selection of their subordinate
officers. Bright of Indiana, the new SER
geant-at-arms, while state printer was in
dcted for perjury and fraud, and escaped
through techncality of pleading, though
his guilt is said to have been apparent and
undoubted. Burch, the secretary just chosen,
was controller of the state of Tennessee, and
is said to have grown rich while in that
Office, which gave him opportunities to spec
ulate in state securities. This much is
known, that he was appointed to that office
by the governor upon the resignation of his
predecessor, who was hired for $4,000 to
resign. The man who paid that sum testi-
fed upon an investigation by the legislature
that he did it because he, as a banker and
broker, dealing in state stocks, was inter
ested in having competent man in that
office instead of Mr.. Hobbs, the incumbent
at that time, whom he considered incapable.
He was satisfied with the appointment of
Burch, and so was another broker, who adj
mitted paying him $4,000 for official acts
favorable to his interest, as everybody be-
lieved, but, as Burch claimed for services as
an attorney. The evidence was considered
in Tennessee to be fatal to Burch's reputa-
ton for honesty, as well it might be. The
proof of fraud is SO overwhelming that an
Investigation will unquestionably be ordered.

CAUGHT A TARTAR.-When our Cana
dian brethren Hospitality received Sitting
Bull and his warriors upon his retreat after
the Custer massacre they perhaps scarcely
realized the extent Of the responsibility they
assumed. 1t was at that time agreed by a
joint commission of the two governments,
after a conference with the savage, that he
and his tribe should be considered and
treated thereafter as Canadian Indians.
Sitting Bull had much to say in scorn of the
"great father at Washington" and in pro
fession of respect and obedience to the
"great mother" who, Notwithstanding his
promises of good behavior, is likely TO find
him sadly refractory and troublesome
child. At present he is threatening TO in
wade the United States and attack our fort'
and settlements, and the President gives
notice to the "great mother " that she mus
keep her children at home, or be prepared
to pay for their mischief, We have thu
same right to require John Bull to make hi
adopted son, Sitting Bull, behave himself
as John has TO demand that we should keel
our adopted children, the Fenians, iron
making mischief in Canada.

GRAvELIN's FISANCEs-Mr William Batch
elder, of Windsor, one OF Gravelins counsel, has
published a lengthy statement explaining the
connection OF himself and his former partner,
james n Edminster, with the Grayelin case, and
showing what use and disposition was made of
Gmvelin's property in defending him in the suits
against him for arson and afterward for murder
Mr., Batchelder explicitly denies having used a
dollars worth OF Gravens property wrongfully,
aud the figures which he gives appear To prove
the truth of his statements. The costs OF Grave
Inns different trials, the judgment recovered by
Weston, and other expense, consumed pretty
much the whole property, while Batcheder and
Edminster received only about $3.50 for their ser
vices before and at the trials in the supreme and
county courts. lie thinks the actual value o.
Gravelins estate was from $4,000 to $4,000, in
stead OF $50, 900, AS has been stated. Mr. Batch
elders statement is fully endorsed by Hon. Johr
f. Deane OF Cayendsh.

The ELECTRIC LIGHT-The first prac-
tical illustration of Edison's electric light
has been given at his laboratory in New Jer-
sey, and only two minor improvements re-
main to be made. Arrangements for light
ing Menlo Park, N. j., will be begun in a
fortnight. The public have been hoping
for the success of any new mode of public
and private lighting that would relieve poor
civilized humanity from the despotic, and
not always just, rule of the gas meter man.
Mr.. Edison has now, it is claimed, practi-
cally succeeded in his object of dividing the
current so as to furnish number of cleo
trio lights each equal to eighteen to twenty
candle power on one circuit and in the pro-
portion of six lights per horse power ex-
pended in generating the current. These
are remarkable results, even if they exhaust
his powers of invention. But we do not
think they do. They represent only the
first developments of a system of lighting
destined to replace that of gas as the latter
has replaced the ordinary candle. Edison's
success will inspire other inventors to rival
and surpass him, and the world will be ben
Gifted, although some established interests
may temporarily suffer.

THE Issue MADE.-The democratic eau
Gus has ratified the report of the democratic
committee, and the democratic plan of oper-
ations is now defined and determined. Their
programme is to destroy the whole validity
and efficacy Of the election laws, and to do
it by putting the emasculating provisions on
to the appropriation bills. They leave the
supervisors, but deprive them OF all power.
This is doing bad act by worse methods
it is reaching an end which is wrong by
means which are revolutionary. The issue
is now made up and the battle must be
fought out. The scheme cannot be carried
through Congress without resolute fight
which will expose its dangerous character
And it cannot go beyond Congress without
we trust, encountering Presidential veto
which will kill it. Let the issue come.

At Their Old Tricks.

IL is hardly matter OF surprise that
Southern manners return with Southern
ascendancy in the United States Senate.
Intoxicated with the novelty of controlling
its action, and being able to do what they
please, some of the gravest of them recently
lectured the minority on the duty of sub
hitting quietly and not annoying their bet
ters by proposing amendments to measures
which the majority had determined to pass.
awe know what we want" said Senators
Herman and Salisbury in substance, and
we mean to have it now that the power is
in our hands. We frame our measures TO
suit ourselves, and if we find that they need
amendment we can amend them without
your help. It is impertinent for gentlemen
on your side to interfere with suggestions in
regard to action that we have decided upon,
and you must learn TO know your place and
accept with patience and humility your sub
ordinate position" Mr.. Edmunds did not
take this insolent lecture as meekly as the
Senators from New York and Delaware
probably expected. 1t had always been his
impression, he said, that Senator in the
minority was still Senator, with right to
propose amendments and to give his opinion
in regard to pending legislation. MIR. Sauls-
bury, he had observed, had always, when in
the minority, exercised that right without
question. Perhaps caucus of the majority
might think it best to amend the yea and
nay list by striking off all the Republican
names. They had as much right to do that
as to rebuke him for offering an amendment
to any pending proposition. The question
which gave occasion for this display of AFRO
gance from the democratic Senators was
request that the Secretary of the Treasury
should furnish statement of the expense of
marshals for election purposes in the states
of New York, Massachusetts, Ohio, Pennsyl-
vania and Maryland. The amendment pro-
posed was that similar information should
be furnished in regard to all the states.
The democratic Senators wanted light, but
not too much light

MORE BRITIsH SUocEss.-Intelligen
from Afghanistan states that Russia, the
only power which could possibly stand in
the way, and whose assistance to the Afghans
would have enabled them to resist ndefini-
tely the British efforts at conquest, has
formally withdrawn from all interest in the
problem, and stands aside for England. And
so Afghanistan may hereafter be counted as
one Of the provinces of the British Indian
Empire, and the time in the future when IL
shall be so counted will turn merely on the
readiness of the English government to push
events TO hasty conclusion. Alone the
Afghans cannot resist the English, and they
know it, and will make the best terms they
can; while Russia may the more readily con
sent TO their presence, since this advance
will make an important province more valu
able in case they should ever conquer it il
the future.
