MORE FUN At THE FAIR.

Senator NJ. G.. Butler, of South Carolina, has
been making n speech at Fair. 1t seems to be
the custom in South Carolina to settle great pO-
litical questions at fairs. Three years ago, as
our readers may recOllect. there was "a question
in that State as to the organization of the State
Government; there were rival Legislatures and
there were two claimants of the chief execu-
tive office. General Wade Hampton, and the
other leaders of the party to which Mr.. Butler
belongs, determined that this legal and consti-
tutiOnal question should be settled at the State
Fair in Columbia. They telegraphed all over
for the rifie-clubs to come and settle it,
" Fun expected at the Fair this week. ran
one of the dispatches; prepare for high
"sport." Bring best men and tool-chest,n
said another. " If ntles can be concealed, bring
"thcm." "Come to State Fair ostensibly.r
"Let best boys come, but not too many. un-
"less well heeled." So the "best boysr nut
on their redshlrts and packed their rifles in
the tool-chests"; General Hampton (wLo
claimed the GOvernorship) teegraphed TO
General Conner (who claimed the Attorney
Gencralship) to have the railway train de-
layed for the accommodation of the "best
"boysr; and as the clubs, all well heeled,
began to pour into the Fair, partisan of
Hampton's telegraphed in great glee, Inau-
equation tomorrow; Hampton sure, or
" skirmishing." Well, the riile-cubs had their
way. Mr.. Tilden's plan to buy four State
"Senators and couple of negroes in the
"other House, fell through and General
Hampton was inaugurated at the point OF the
musket.

IN LINE FOR 1880.

It is victory throughout. Cornell is Gov
ernor-elect of New-York. The doubtful
States are made securely Republican, Butler
is routed, Pennsylvania comes UP like second
Iowa.
A Solid North sends greeting to a Solid
South. Yesterday answers the last session of
Congress, and all the insolent disloyalty
which, alter growing for years, found express
sion there. The grand and resistless up
rising which followed the shot in Charleston
Harbor in 1861, finds an echo in
the returns of to-day. Once more the
North is united The work which men did
with their bullets they have determined
not to spoil with their ballots. Here
on the very threshold of a victory
which means, if they are wise, twenty
years more of power, they serve notice upon
the South that there is 10 vindictiveness in
their triumph.
Yes, Men of the South, we have done enough
for Cancellation. We offered you Horace
Greeley. and insisted upon amnesty for
all. The same Northern element which
then failed has since found means
to offer you better terms than you ever ex-
pected. President Hayes held out the hand
of reconciliation. Troops were withdrawn ;
advice of Southern men was heard
i'll appointments everything was done
that could be done TO leave the South with
out excuse tor hostility. What has been the
answer The South has answered by its
Ku-Klux clans. its rifle-clubs. and its
systematic assassination of Republicans. 1t
has answered by the complete suppress
sion of the colored vote. 1t has answered
l,xrt ba 1ota 10
swarm of war claims. and the countless South
ern jobs which crowd the record. and the
nearly solid vote of Southern representatives
for every form of reputation. 1t has answered
by the open alliance of men who rebeled
with those Northern men who sympa-
thized with rebellion by the conspiracy

BLOWING on LIVE c AIS.

Already the visit of Prince Bismarck TO
Vienna begins to bear fruits that threaten the
peace of Europe. The Vienna papers, cchoing
no doubt the popular feeling ana rejecting
the views of the new Austro- Hungarian Min
istry, are filled with attacks on Russia. Even
the prudent and liberal Ncae Freie Pressc joins

trian opinion "and the full carrying out of
"the Berlin Treaty Is not to be expected
until Russia is made to feel her Isolation
"and her pOweTlcssness." After tins scarcely
concealed menace II goes on To argue that the

sion of "thc dangerous ASiatic Power" from
her affairs before new viviscciiOn oil Turkey

To join tie alliance between Germany and

France, from coming To the assistance OF Rus

will be nothing in the way OF the success OF
the Oscillation y programme. This sort OF
talk from responsible and influential news
papers is exceedingly significant Its purpose
can be- nothing else than to blow on the live
Goals of national jealousy and race hatred,
and thus inhame the people OF Austria
Hungary up to the point of sanctioning
war against Russia if their rulers choose to
drop diplomacy and resort TO the last argu-
ment of Kings.
Bismarck has evidently had no trouble in
persuading the IIaymerlc Cabinet to sanction
his schemes. On the nature of these schemes
and the degree of resistance the Govern
ment of the Car is prepared to oppose
to them depend the peace of the Con-
tinent Perhaps they look no further than
to frightening Russia into Withdrawing her
influence from the Balkan Peninsula. But,
then, it is possible that Russia will not be
frightened by the threat of another war into
relinqushing all she has gained in the one so
lately closed Possibly she may prefer the
risks of struggle with her two powerful
neighbors to the isolation into which they so
cOolly propose to thrust her. In such Il case
il is not likely that the Sc man of irOn," who
has already been the author of three wars,
would draw back from a fourth. He has
chastised two of the three great Continental
Powers which were the rivals of Prussia
when he took the reins of government. May
he not desire to humble the third before he
closes his career
There are possibilities in war for the ex-
tincton of Russia as a European Power which
make all friends of humanity shudder. Pru-
dent, shopkeeping England might look pas
sively on, but France could hardly fail to
seize the opportunity for supreme effort to
recover her lost provinces of Alsace and Lor-
raine and Italy, pushed on by the Italia ire
denta agitation. might seek to wrest from
Austria Trieste and the Trentino. Thus a
struggle such as the world has not witnessed
since the downfall of the first Napoleon may
be the result of the hasty journey of Bismarck
and his bulldog to the Austrian Court.

BANKS IND T1XES.

The efforts of Controller Knox to bring
about better observance of the laws govern
ing the National banks caused some temporary
hesitation in speculative operations last week.
Nevertheless the week was one of enormous
transactions. The exchanges of the banks
were larger than in any week of 1873, and
have not been exceeded in any week since No
yember 2, 1872. Money loaned readily at high
rates of interest, and yet the stock market
closed with great hopefulness and buoyancy not
withstandinga considerable reaction in prices
at the first information of the Controllers
action. Many were disposed to criticise his
course as peculiarly ill-timed. anu yet it is
evident that. if the banks have ever needed
the restraints which the law imposes, they
stand in peculiar need of those restraints at
this time, when the volume of business is so
vast and the bank reserves have fallen
below the legal requirement. For the
moment, the banks which do business
most largely with brokers have generally
resOrted to arrangements by which the
law may be technically met without compli-
ance with its spirit, but 1t is thought proba-
BILE that the position taken by some of the
banks at their meeting last week, and after
ward by the Controller, will finally lead to
some modification in the modes of doing
business. Apparently changes can be made
which would not only enable the banks to
comply fully with the law, but would greatly
facilitate the business of dealers, and render
them less at the mercy of those who cause
artificial stringency In the money market.

who as Senator in the hour of his countrys peril,

common enemy rears his head, let us close
"up and present solid front to him." kead
by the light of Mr.. Buffers notorious con-
duct in other political campaigns, and tho
notorious policy of the violent and lawicss
party which he represents, this advice Is
plain enough. 1t means exactly what the
kilograms of 1876 meant. The best boys
would have the Government or there should
be skirmishing. And when we remember
who it is that he designates as :" the common
enemy,"-when we remember that no ana
his fellows, by systematic fraud and terrorism,
have taken the Government of the State away
from the numerical majority of the voters, we
shall appreciate the full meaning OF his de-
termination to keep at all hazards what he
has thus won. We do not doubt that as
often as the common enemy "-otherwise the
Republican vOter-rears his head. the best
boys will shoot at it.
Mr. Butler and his allies think it an outrage
that the law-abidlng and justice-loving North
should presume to interfere with their method
of taking care of "their own State" But III
the first place, it is not their own They have
been brought up to call it so, and to act as
il the inferior part of the population had no
share in the patrimony and no right to par
ticipate in its management. Under the des-
potism of the chivalry the cOlOred voter has
been DISTINGUISHED Even the white voter, IL
he is a Republican, may not have his vote
counted. The shotgun party say that the
State is "theirs" But the silent and OPP
pressed majority has Its rights, and though
Mr.. Butler may not recognize them, the North
does In the next place the doctrine OF all
Southern Democrats that it Is none of our
business what they do inside the boundaries
of their own States-how they set up and
overturn administrations, how they manage
elections and count vOtes-is a reasonable
principle not to be tolerated for day When
Congressman come up from South Carolina to
make laws Tor the whole Union, and TO vote
away the money of the whole Union, every State
has right to require that ut least they shall
be fairly elected by the people whom they
pretend to represent, and not forced upon the
National Legislature by armed rufiians and
swindling canvassers.

In Virginia the Readjusters, who want to
shirk the payment of large share of the
honest debt of the State. appear to have
elected majority of the Legislature. This is
not a surprise. The South Is fast becoming
as solid for reputation as it is for multiplying
the results of the war. 1t can do as it pleases
with its own State debts, but the people of
the North will take good care that it never
gets chance to repudiate the National
debit
