Jack Marshall is responsible for the
following % . dead cold fact: He says
that on Christmas night hs heard his
dog Jack barking furiously. and the
noise was 90 continuous that he finally
went out to the shed where the dog was
tied. There he found the dog with his
chain pulled taut trying to reach . rat
which Was about FIVE inches beyond his
nose. The rat Was squatted on his hind
legs and actually tickling the dogs nose
with Q straw. Several other rats were
seated about the 6rst hugely enjoying
the scene, and at times squealing with
laughter. The dog was frantic with
rage, and his teeth were clashing like
the knives Of moving machine.

TRAPPING FOR ADVANTAGE.

The great expounder of Constitutional
and statutory law, which now appears to be
the Democratic organ at the National Capt.
tai, in discussing the question of the power
Of the Louisiana legislature to choose elec-
tors of President for 1881, holds the follow
ing as sound doctrine
The fact that the clause in the now State
constitution, comforting upon the legislature
the power TO choose the electors is really a
superfuity, inasmuch as the Federal Constitu.
tion explicitly provides that the Legislature Of
the State may at any time assume the respon-
sibility referred to, itself, or may delegate it
elsewhere, does not, however, Seem to have re-
ceived equal attention. This shows II lament.
able ignorance of the provisions of our great
National Charter.
Accepting the point raised in the above
remarkable quotation rs correct, then what
would follow Each State legislature could
at once repeal all existing laws which dele
gate the power Of electing Presidential elec-
tors by the people, by the majority thereof
and could proceed at once to choose electors
thus setting aside the necessity of holding
an exciting election for President by the
people next year. Then what would fol-
low Let us see:

Thus giving the Republicans twenty-five
votes more than they need to elect the next
President of the United States. In this
way the great expounder of law and Ma.
tional polity has set trap in which il
would be caught as its party was when il
invented the Electoral Commission in the
hope of making final steal of the Presi-
dency, after having already bull-dozed the
Republican party out Of at least three States
that rightfully belonged to it. This trapping
for advantage very often upsets the calcula-
tions of the trappers.

OUR cotemporary of the Lynchburg Vir-
giniaa made gross and indelensible at
tack upon Vice President WHEELER for
having uttered truth based upon fifteen
years history which we rebuked in proper
terms 1t now says it condemns the GUS
HOLM murder, but it was mere local mat
ter. 1t has become more than that, for it is
justified by u large majority Of the South
ern people, and hence the responsibility for
it is as wide as the whole South, The Vr-
ginian retires from the controversy in the
following terms:
But it is no uso TO argue such questions with
people who, from their fraudulent Vice. Pres-
dent down, do not soruple to slander one
whole section of the country, TO band the Other
and stronger section against the weaker for
party purposes
