was buried. There had been deal Of tall |
storytelling on both sides. Men were claim. |
cd by Randall and Blackburn and, as q con- |
sequence, such men are denounced as having |
gone back on their word. However, the mat
ter Is settled now, for when Congress conven-
cd on Tuesday Randall had one hundred and
forty-threo votes and was elected. In the
Senate there was not little curiosity to see
how the Democrats, now in control, would
conduct themselves. There was however,very
little Of interest, and the first day Of the eI-
ira session passed with hardly a ripple.
While Speaker Randall was reelected on
his own merits, It Is undoubtedly the fact
that his success is looked upon by politicians
as very dec Ided indication Of the success Of
Tilden in getting the Democratic nomination
for the Presidency. In fact the old political
stagers in Washington already pat it dswn as
an assured fact that Tilden and Grant will be
the party candidates pitted against each 9th
er In 1880. The Aguring for Tiiden is on this
basis. The Democratic party can count upon
carrying every southern state and will only
need to secure New York and Indiana, and
some other small state in addition to get the
requisite number Of electoral votes. 1t is
doubted if there is any other man who would
be as sure Of carrying New York as Tilden,
and of course Hendricks would be n winning
card in Indiana. Then, 1t is believed that
Tildcn would stand good chance Of carrying
New Jersey, and yet better one Of Califor-
MIA, &c that state was not neglected. as the
| California Democrats say 1t was in 1870 under
/ Hcwitts management Of the national cam
| paign. Thus with Tilden and Hendricks in
| tlA field, and with bold energetic chairman
Of the national committee an easy victory is
| figured out by these calculators. On behalf
of Grant, of course, the figurirg is reversed
and n nearly solid north is claimed ior him
with some inroads upon the south. What
ever may be the results of the nominations, it
looks to-day as ifTilden and Grant will be the
nominees,
Tho absence of General Butler will relieve
| Scrgcant-at.A rms Thompson of the greater
part OF his duty, that of pranclng about with
the big mace. In times past when ever the
Lawmakers waxed so unruly as to require the
restraining influence of this doughty beadte,
it was only necessary for him to flourish that
ridiculous emblem above the shining pate oI
the member from Massachusetts to restore
harmony BY bringing down the House in roarS
of good-natured laughter. 1t is said that
Sergeant thompson has selected the Hon
Omar Conger, Of Michigan, as his future OBJ
jective point on similar occasions, but am
sure the result will not be the same. Gener-
al Butler is engaged, not to Mrs. Oliver, but
to defend Senator Cameron in the now cele
brated breach of promise suit, and his cunning
is certainly marvellous. There is no doubt but
that the aged Senator has been playing off OF
the widow in question, but Mr. Butler will
no doubt, get his client out Of the scrape by

Judge Parsons Decision in the case of
7. S. PAUL., convicted before and by ex-
Judge Stanton, and sentenced 10y the latter
a -anst the protest of the prosecuting officer
ol the Commonwealth, is an ample vindl-
c,ton Of Mr.. PAUL., and an emphatic con
demantion of his indicative eX-Judge. But
how much is it to be regretted that any
Judge in Pennsylvania should have so con-
Quoted himself as to merit such censure and
sweeping reversal as the Supreme Court has
had to administer to Judge Stanton. The
vital Importance Of selecting competent non
partisan Judges to preside over our courts
is very clearly shown by the history of thi:
case. An incompetent or prcjudiced judge
u lsyrupulous in his exercise of power, may
do incalcuable injury not only to the indi.
vidual but to the cause of justice outrage
