MINORITY REPORT.

The undersigned, members Of the
they dissent from the report, as made, and
ask that it be not accepted and base
their dissent on the following grounds ::
1st. They maintain, that public officials
haye an inalienable right to issue as
many bonds, and other evidences of
public debt, as they please, and to make
as much money as they can, when they
get the chance, provided they divide
fair.
End. They maintain, that any move
ment to suppress this inalienable and
ancient right, will have bad effect, and
dampen the zeal and energy Of political
aspirants, and of those high toned pa
triots who are determined to keep up the
credit Of the state, even If they have to
draw the last dollar from its treasury,
to keep it from getting short.
srd. They maintain, that the carpet
bag coupon is entitled to the highest
veneration, respect, and payment and
that any hereto who refuses to yenerate,
respect, or pay it, ought to be damned.
They are certain that this is the true and
orthodox doctrine, because they have it
in The newspapers, aud newspapers cam
not lie, or betray their readers by preach
ing to them false doctrine. No, never,
never, never; not even il they were paid
to do it by the coupon-hnlders. ...
4th. They maintain, that it is better
to let Cartilage 90 to blaZes, rather than
let this coupon go unpaid. The holders
of it insist on being paid in full !; and if
the state intends to pay them, it had
better be quick about it. The motto of
the holders Of the coupons is inscribed
on their flag at the ast-leal, and is

ion by bowling at random and asking
irrelevant questions, while they gazcd at
the figure of a man, a little on in years,
arraypti in long night shirt, paving
ticrcrly at the unattainabln spot in the
middle of his back while he danced an
unnatural, vrircd, wicked looking jig by
the dim religions light OF til" ni@llt-lamp.
And while he danced and howled, and
while they gazed and shouted Il navy

pnt in the bottle for good measure
and variety, and to keep the managerie
stirred up, had dried his le=s and wings
with the corner Of the sheet, and after a
preliminary circle or two around the led
to get I'D his motion and settle down to
a working gait, he fired himself across
tho room, and to his dying day Mr. Mid
dlerib will always believe that one of
the servants mistook him fora burglar
and shot him.
Not one, not even Mr. Miadlerib him
self, could doubt that he WAS, ut least
for the time, most thoroughly cured Of
rheumatism. His own boy could not
have carried himself more lightly or
wish greater agility. But the cure was
not permanent, and Mr.. MiAdlcrib does
not like to talk about it.

The French Senate and Chamber of
Deputies in joint session have chosen a
worthy successor to the retiring Fresi~
dent, Marshal MacMahon. Mr.. Grevy is
one Of the most eminent statesmen OF
the day. It was on his shoulders that
the mantle of leader Of the Republicans
fell when President ThieFs died. He
is the recognized chief Of the moderate
wing Of the party, as Gambetta is of
the more PRONOUNCED seetjon, and under
his careful guidance the republic. will
not go astray. The fact that Gambetta
supported him for the position is at once
q proof of the influence and the ability
Of Mr.. G1evy. The great tribune, what
ever may be bis defects, is at least, a
firm friend of the republic, which he
chiefly formed, and he knew be was con-
fiding his great and patriotic work to
safe hands when he called the friend OF
Theirs to the head Of affairs. The cleo
ton of so pronounced and yet so mod
crate and conservative Republican
seems to have had tranquilizing effect
at once. The excitement in Paris has
toned down, aud affairs on the Bourse
have resumed their usual currents

The idea Of compromising public debts
seems to be moving steadily on. Every
day we hear of more States, counties
and cities proposing compromise Of
their debts, and threatening if it is not
agreed to by the bondholders to cease
paying interest altogether. The Leg
islature Of Kansas has just granted this
privilege Of compromising to a dozen
counties of that State, and now SPRING
field, tile capital of Illinois, has entered
the field and is offering its creditors
forty cents on the dollar. The New
York papers have almost ceased to at
tack the South and West on this point,
as the compromise idea LAS invaded
even the Empire State and quite anum-
Der of it's counties and towns are offer
ing their creditors so per cent on the
dollar.-[N. Q. Democrat.

1t will denoted that the authorities
of Russia have determined that the
bodiesof those dying by tbe plague shall
he burned. This is step towards heroic
sanitary treatment which will begin a
new era. Ii has long been urged
by medical authorities Of highest at
tainment, that the immense masses of
corruption accumulating IN course OF
the epidemic has much to do with pro-
longing the virulence Of the disease !;
but as no one dared to overthrow ail
custom and burn the dead, the evil
was looked upon as one of humanity.
Russia has certainly taken bold stand
in this matter, and the method and
effect of the ordinance will be looked
to with lively interest by all. It is a
mooted question of respect to the dead.
that alone has kept cremation from be-
coming popular, and we confidently be-
lieve that with one great example al
ready set, it will come rapidly into fash
ion. Its advantages are many, its draw
backs few.-[N. 0. Times,
