the Legislative Appropriation Bill with
such An obnoxious measure attached to

grsss be called with the Republican a.
csndancy swept away, II will remain
with the Republican President to inter
pose his veto. A two-third vote Of
neither House can bs mustered TO pass

Doubtless the temptations to com

THE "Americus Democratic Club" Of
Reading, at a regular stated meeting
held on Tuesday evening, nominated
Tilden and Hendricks for President and
Vice President, by a unanimous vote.
The Reading "Times" says: "that set
ties it! Messrs. Bayard, Thurman, and
other candidates will now have to take
back seats" That's nothing. Just
wait until the Jefferson Democratic club
OF Wilmington belches forth its thun-
der for Bayard and 'tother fellow. Why
Tilden and Hendricks will be nowhere.

THB LEGISLATURE has enough busi-
ness now before it to occupy all ,ts time
up 10 the middle Of April II 1t moves no
faster in the latter part Of the session
than it did in the 6rst. All the mea-
sures Of real importance yet remain,
though sone Of them have received
solne consideration in the committee
rooms Besides the very important
measure Of placing n gate across lane
in Sussex couty, there are the two H.
quor bills the railroad commissioners
bill the peach growers freight bill !;
the Delaware College bill the batch Of
bills pertaining to city legislation the
State educational bill the New Castle
County Levy Court bill the new Court
House. bill the bill for the education
of the colorsd people, not yet present
ed, probably will not bs, and many
others Of importano. now pending,
and which, il they receive proper con-
sideration, will prolong the session a.
we have already said, until the middle
Of April. 1t is not likely, however,
that the session will last that long, for
az the warm, genial Spring sun gets
stronger, the birds begin TO sing, the
Dover green gets grssner, the willows
to put forth th.ir leaves. the rural
members will begin 10 get anxious to
return home, one u his ox-cart and
pillow, and another to hi, merchandise.
No doobt that particular attention will
bs paid before adjournment to divorc-

few more ditch banks, and shutting

but such small matters a. education

THg HOUSE or REPRESENTATIVES,, at
Dover yesterday, sseIled to be perfectly
at home on the mule question, and
quite a number of the members availsd
themselves Of the opportunity of telling
what they knew about mules and their
ways. A few years ago, in the Pennsyl-
vania legislatures member from one Of
the rural districts seemed to have no
business there until the question on
hogs came up. The rural member 8
ears elongated and his eyes flashed with
All unusual intelligence, when he heard
the debate on hogs progressing, and he
thought that now or never was the time
for him to distinguish himself. Rising
from his seat, his stentorian voice was
heard in broken English, exclaiming /:
"Mischter schpaker, Mischter Schpak-
er wants to say Won leetle word pout
hogs, for vas raised nit 'em und kno
all pout 'en; und II yuse put down de
hogs, den de dan.akrat psrty goes to de
divilr 1t is needless to say that the
Gsrmans eloquence saved the hogs and
the Democratic party.

Ir IL CERTAINLY Misrepresentation

our old Court House is large enough

pools of tobacco spittle, and choked by

PEELED to attend Court, have Lad to put

lHERB ARE TEN trade dollars in cir
culation now to one standard dollar
for the reassn that the trade dollar is
repudiated by the Government that is
sued it, and is not taken at par for Gov
ernment dues. The trade dollar ia a
swindle, though bearing the stamp of
the United States. The Government
ought to keep it at par the same as
other coins, and as soon as that is done
the standard dollar, which is Of less

The MORAL SUAsIoS Reform Associa-
tion seems to be drifting out to sea, and
il there il not some careful steering
under true and tried officers, it will be
dashed to pieces on the shoals Of petty
personal feelings and prejudices. The
Association has done much good, al
can bs attested by many who have
been snatched from ihe yswning abyss
of intemperance. 1t is hoped wise and
calm counsels will prevail, and that
the bonds which bind three hundred
reformed men to sober temperate life,
may not be broken by the in discreet
actions Of indiscrept men.

From the New York Herald, yesterday
1t cannot be said that it is improper
10 give the public an honest and sincere
account of the past life of a man who is
candidate for off ,e' Voters have a
right to know the record OF the manthey
are asked to vote for, and newspapers
have right to give them within fair
limits the information necessary to guide
their sufirages. But between that AMI
bounding man through life on the al
legation of an offence for which he was
lried, and which was never actually prov
ed, there is a wide difference. Az ainst
Kalloch 10 this case the San Francisco
Chronicle seems to have practised in All
extreme form kind Of journalism that
has ere this cited the disgust and horror
of the public in many an American city,
aud that in a general way IS an exclu-
sive possession of the party papers.
Make candidate for al important
public Office and give him up to the
iends OF detractiOn, scandal, vitupera-
ton, villfication, and to the widest
flights of the practised caluminator's 8
imagination. Draw up category of all
the vile offences, outrageous crimes, un-
clean thoughts and acts, and attribute
t.,em all to him without scruple, with
day and date. "Throw mud enough
some of it will stick" That is the whole
theory and practice of politics with
journalists of the kind designated; and
this sort OF journalism was put in opera
ton by very bravo If the press to force
Kalloch to withdraw from the canvass

been behind that purpose? For Kalloch

But Kalloch retorts in the very way il
which he is assailed. And then comes g
queer spectacle, The 'urnallst who ha'

that he has some honor, that it is touch

delivering from hidden corner upon hi
unprepared enemy the s,ealthy shot Of ,
murderer. How fine, indeed, is his senst
OF honor
Aud the practical result of all this ap
parently will be, if Kalloch lives, to elec
him by an overwhelming majority to tht
Office for hich he is candidate. Th'
reaction of pubic opinion will, as pro
test against an unscruDulous attempt

being too damp to hold 1t outside, and
was one of the best meetings held since
the camp commenced. It was led by

meeting was opened with three leadit g
thoughts on Christ, VIZ: His visit to the
house Of Martha, after the death Of
Liza us; Hisltriumphant reception into
Jeru-aIein; and the words cf certain
Greeks who said to Philip, "Sir, we
would see Jesus"
The meeting was composed principally
of the members OF the several churches

alize,l the truth of that passage of the

This policy of the Republican papers
in holding Dixon up as marty and using
his blood as the seed of victory is in
strong cantras: with the action of the
Democratic press in refusing to hold the
r, publican party responsible for muir
ders committed by Republicans, or for
dsfalcations, thefts and forgeries by p, o.
minent Republicans, or for the salacious
propensities of Republican Senator.
