DEATH OF You've NAPoLEoN.-The al
most tragic death of young Napoleon at
the hands of the Zulus, while it will touch
the tender chords of sympathy in every
heart, will nevertheless be looked upon as
in some degree a providential blessing so
far as the future peace and Republican
character of France is concerned. The
distress of his afflicted mother the proud
Eugenie, on the news being made known
to her, was too terrible for words. All the
fond hopes of the Imperial mother for q
restoration of the NapOleonic reign in
France. were blasted in the tragic death Of
this, her only son.
The young French Prince has been very
unfortunate through life. The ''baptism
Of fire, at Sedan, ended disastrously and
was followed by years of exile. His search
for "glory' in fighting this Zulus of Africa,
has terminated with an inglorious death at
the hands of concealed enemies, and his
poor naked body was target for Zulu
spears. Poor Eugene! how much happier
the lot Of an unambitiOus peasant.
The New York Times of Friday last gives
the following account of the probable
provocations for the setto between 'Sena-
tors Lamar and Conkling:
A detailed statement Of the causes which
led to the disgraceful bandying of epithets
in the Senate, on Wednesday night of last
week, shows that it probably grew out Of
a misund erstanding. Senator Lamar was
in charge Of the Mississippi Levee bill, and
Senator Withers had the Army bill in his
hands. The latter declared that he should
push it, without conceding any privileges
Of debate. But Mr.. Lamar's bill being in
| the way gave him q certain responsibility
in the matter of extending time for debate.
Mr.. Conkling, speaking for the Republi-
cans, agreed to go on with the Bevee bill
reserying for himself and friends on that
/ side of the chamber the right to debate the
/ Army bill, later on. Mr.. Lamar, by his
silence, was supposed to have consented to
this arrangement. This alleged tacit
agreement was not carried out, and Mr..
Conkling charged Mr.. Lamar with acting
in bad faith. 1t would be desirable to
find out what Mr.. Lamar really under
stood was agreed upon; and, at the same
time, it would be interesting to know up
on what possible ground the Democrats
could excuse their arbitrary course in fore
/ ing to an abrupt close a debate in which
they had taken by far the largest part

The GRANTEES are very much disgusted
with the open manner in which the gov
ernment is being manipulated in the in
terest of Secretary Sherman's nomination
for President. Honest John is accused
of giving position to sich men as Smalls,
Rainey and other defunct politicians from
the Southern States on an agreement with
them that he is to have the vote of these
States in the nominating convention.
Thus, the Radicals are about to find
the solid South as great an incubus on
their party as it is on the Democratic,
for it is the solid Republican South which
will control the nomination of their can
didate for Presidents and thus it begins
to be seen that no matter which party
wins the solid South will have a large
voice in the selection of the next Presi-
dent. The only question, therefore, for
the country to decide is, whether it pre-
fers being controlled by the solid igno-
rant and corrupt portion of the South
which is in the Republican party, or by
the solid intelligent and patriotic portion
of the South which is in the Democratic
party? This analysis of the question is
beginning to cause the thinking portion
of the country to realize that there is no
merit in the partisan issues presented by
the Radicals, for the South is part of
the Union and has n voice in the trans
action of its affairs. The question then
is, Do the people of the whole country
wish to be under the influence of the
solid bad elements of this section which
unite with the Republicans, or of the
solid good influence of this section which
unites with the Democrats? The prefer
ence for the latter is fast gaining ground
everywhere.

GEN. GRANTS ASPIRATIONS. - Ex-
Secretary Borie, who has just reached
home, left Gen. Grant and party on the
2lst of May in Shanghai, and at that
time the distinguished travellers were in
excellent health and spirits. Gen. Grant
then expected to start homeward on Sep.
tember 10, aboard the steamship City of
Toxic. Speaking of Gen. Grants Presi-
Dental aspirations, Mr.. Borie said: "1t
appears to ME as though he were going to
be the next nominee of the Republican
party, and the next President of the
United States. Wherever he went that
was the opinion held by every one. 1
had made up my mind to ask him to de-
cline the honor positively, but | lacked
the courage. My friends have said there
was no use in my making the experiment,
and even Democrats coincided with them.
The General himself does not allow the
matter to bother him. He never alludes
to it in any way. If the nomination was
urged upon him as necessity, however,
I do not think he would refuse it."

Mr.. Hayesis evidently spelling for a
political fight, and now that he has forced
the whole Democratic party into the
"last ditch" on the question of using
United States marshals at the polls, he
win probably have his hands full. He
has usurped the place to which Mr.. Til
den was elected, and is now trying to
usurp the whole functions of Congress
in addition. The question is now pre-
sented squarely to the country. Shall
the will of the people rule or is one
man to shape the legislation and execute
the laws of the land according to his own
wishes?

THE PLANS OF THE PARTY.
Views Of Senator Hampton and Congress-
mon Evins, Richardson and Aiken.
Dispatch to the Meus aud Courier.
WASHINGTON, June "a.

WASHINGTON, June "a.
There is no disposition whatever on the
part of the Democrats, to yield an
inch of their position, in regard
to Withholding appropriations for the
payment of deputy marshals. The con-
servative element are steadfastly oppos-
ed to any proposition looking to an ad-
journment before all the legitimate ex-
penses Of the judiciary department have
been fully provided for, but even the most
conservative are unwilling to include the
payment of the obnoxious marshals in
such appropriations.
Governor Hampton says: "The true
policy of the majority now is to eliminate
the political riders from the vetoed bill,
and send it back to the President with the
clause repeating the Jurors Test Oath
incorporated in it. The President has
not made any objection to this measure
in any of his veto messages, and I take it
for granted that he will sign such bill,
and the Democrats would thereby have
accomplished both the prohibition of
the army at the polls and the repeal of
the Test Oath, two of the great points
they have been fighting for. The next
step would be to send back to him q sep
arate bill providing for the payment of
the regular marshals but containing the
prohibitory clause in regard to deputy
marshals for elections. He would veto
this, and the party could 60 to the country
upon the issues. / do not think" he
said in conclusion, "that the Democrats
will yield the point as to the election
marshals under any circumstances"
Congressman Evins believes the Dem
ocra,s are solidly opposed to providing
for the marshals in question, and that
they will maintain their present position
at all hazards. ave take the ground"
he said, "that the law authorizing the
use of these men is utterly unconstitu-
tional, and we cannot consistently or con-
scientiously appropriate cent for their
support. This is the most vital issue of
all, and I am in favor of fighting it to the
end"
Congressman Richardson is in full ac-
cord with this view, and regarding this
issue as the one most important to the
South, is willing to stay here as long as
the Republicans force us to do so, rather
than yield step.
Congressman Aiken comedies in the
foregoing views, and tersely adds that,
"While no one wants to 60 home more
than he does, he will stay here until Ga
briel blows his horn before he will vote
one dollar for the deputy marshals."
l have not been able to see our other
representatives, but these are their senti
ments and of all the Democrats in both
houses as we'll. No plan of action has
been formally agreed upon as yet, but
the one indicated above will very proba-
bly, be agreed upon, and the party prom
ises to freeze to it.

Thurlow Weed, who has always been
an orthodox Republican and hard money
man, now admits that the resumption
of specie payments could not have been
broughtabout without the reconciliation
ofsilyer. 1t Wills also be found thatunless
the silver dollar is coined to sufficient
extent to supply the demands of ex-
change, the specie payment cannot be
continued without the most ruinous con-
sequences to the masses of the people of
the whole country. The Warner silver
bill, or some similar measure of relief,
should be adopted to secure the necessary
supply of silver.

In the beginning of the present differ
ences between the President and Con-
gress, Mr.. Hayes contended that Con-
gress was trying to ignore his right to
veto bills by putting them as riders on
appropriation bills-that is, he conted-
ed for his right to veto because the meas
nres continued more than he thought they
should contain. Now he vetoes because
the bills do not contain enough to suit
him. The Congressman and the coun-
try, however, begin to see that Mr.. Hayes
idea of the veto power is, that it gives
him the right to make Congress pass
such laws as he wishes. There is not a
monarchial government in Europe that
would approximate despotisn so COM
plete as will exist in this republic in less
than ten years, if this monstrous perver-
sion of the theory of our government
is allowed to prevail.

The Democrats in Congress have re.
peatedly tried tn cosciliate Mr.. Hayes,
by trimming bH the appropriation bills
To suit his fastidious tastG, but have mp
parently gained nothing in return for
their manifest nmlability, except con-
tinued setoihs Of the measures which
We're not framed rs the administration
wished them. Some time ago those who
advocated fighting the President received
the appellalloh of "last ditchers," and
now after month of wasted time, tseems
that Congress has worked to no purpose,
so far as carrying out the reforms which
the Democracy started out to secure; and,
after yielding every other point except
the use of United States tnarshals, it
looks like there was to be fight between
the President and Congress oh this issue
rs sharp and decided as any that could
have arisen in the beginning of the ses-
sion. Mr.. Hayes is not only dissatisfied,
because the majority in Congress have
not allowed him to spend money for the
expenses of United States marshals to
assist in controlling elections, but is de-
termined to make that body appropriate
money for this purpose, or to keep per-
petual session of that body. In view of
this evident desire for fight, it is said
that Congress will accommodate him, and
that all of the Democratic party have
become "last ditchers" I" Upon this issue.
1t may tnrn out after all that Mr.. Hayes
hardheaded policy will infuse into the
Democracy little of that quality of
backbone which Chandler G. Co. gave to
him in the beginning of the fight. The
issue as presented by the President is one
which will unite the Democratic party,
and, if it does not fall into some unpar-
donable blunder,, will rescue it from de-
feat in 1880.

President Hayes has sent in his fifth
veto of Congressional appropriation bills
during the present extra session of Con-
gress. His last is on the bill appropria-
ting funds to pay the salaries and ex-
penses of marshals with proviso that
none of the funds so appropriated shall
be used for paying the salaries or ex-
penses of marshals while engaged in po-
licing elections. The President vetoes
the bill because, he contends, that it de-
prives him of the power to execute the
laws of the government which he is sworn
to do; but his real objection to it is that
the appropriation as passed deprives him
of the means to control elections in the
interest of his political party. The issue
is now squarely presented to the country.
Shall the government become a despot-
ism to be ruled by one man, or shall the
representatives of the people have voice
in legislation? According to Mr.. Hayes
position Congress has no right to think
or act for itself, butts confined to obeying
the wishes of the President. 1t is as it
were so many persons assembled to put
measures into the shape so far as form is
concerned to suit the wishes of the auto
cratical President, but without the right
to exercise any independence of judg-
ment whatever. Through all of the Pres
ident's veto message it is clearly commu-
nicated to Congress that it must do as the
sovereign wishes it to do upon the ques-
ton of appropriations, and that body is
threatened in case of disobedience to
the will of the self constituted despot
with a perpetual session as a punish
ment for its presumption. This is but
another step in the direction of mon
archy. One encroachment upon the
right of the people to rule has been fol-
lowed by another until, indeed, very
little of the original structure remains.
This is now republic only in name and
form, but with all the odious and dis
tinctiye features of an oligarchy. The
conventions and elections are manipula-
ted by foul combinations, and now the
laws are sought to be framed by the one
man who represents the success of these
desperate conspirators. The end is
drawing nigh. Either the men who
have thus usurped and abused power
must be driven from place, or the last
vestige of Republican government will
pass away in the United States and be
numbered with the things that were.

The people of Ohio have the credit in
history Of. starting the most popular and
irresistible campaign ensignia ever pre-
sented in an American canvass, which
consisted of the log-cabin and keg of
hard cider, formed into transparencies,
or built in miniature, and used in pro-
cessions during the presidential canvass
of 1910, in consequence of which the
Wings elected Harrison and Tyler by an
overwhelming majority. The Democrats
of the Buckeye State have hit upon
similarly unique and striking ensign for
the gubernatorial canvass of the present
year, which is to foreshadow the cam
paign of 1880. The Democratic ensign
for this canvass is ballot-box trarsfxed
by bayonet, and upheld by a musket,
which mutely, but forcibly, presents to
the popular mind the great question of
liberty or despotism which is to be de-
termined by the result of the coming
struggle. There are thousands of voters
who will not trouble themselves to con-
slider the arguments advanced by the
different speakers, but will take in the
issues as typi6ed by the ballot-box regu-
lated by the bayonet. This campaign
in Ohio will probably be the most in
tensely interesting struggle of the COM
ing fight. 1t is the skirmish for position
before the battle, and each party will doits
uttermest to secure the first advantage.
The Republicans begin the fight with all
the odds in their favor. They have the
national patronage, they have an abund-
ance of money, and stock Of shrewd
and uuprincipled leaders. The Demo-
Gratis, however, have so far overmatched
them in the arrangements Of the cam
paign. The Radicals fight Under Foster
and Hoenlooper, who were never in the
war, and rendered their country no SER
vice, except in ample security, for which
they have always been we'll paid. The
Democrats are led by Ewing and Rice,
both of whom fought for the Union, and
achieved reputation for patriotic brave
ry which has popularized them before
the people of the State. 1t is fight of
the people against usurpation, and fraud,
and monopoly, and the prospects are
that right will triumph over the strength
of the enemies of the country, and the
victory to be won in Ohio will symbolic
a greater one for the Democracy in 1880.

The House hes passed the bill admit
ting quinine free of import duty, which
will probably become law, as the Presi-
dent will scarcely think this matter
handing veto. 1t is proper meas
ure, for there should be no restriction
upon the introduction of standard inedi-
cines which have to be used by all classes
of our citizens for the purpose of retain
ing their health. When the abolition of
duty goes into effect it should produce a
reduction of at least one-third in the
price of ouinine.

The whole of the Democratic party
will be "last ditchers" on the question OF
appropriating money to be used in pay
ing United States marshals for services
rendered in election work. Not only
this, the W hole country will sustain this
attitude, for it now becomes q question
as 10 whether the representatives of the
people are to have any influence in the
government, or are to be coerced into the
passage of obnoxious legislation by the
soyereig n will of an usurpihg President.
