Logically, the premises of our CORES
pondent lead to his conclusion of the
responsibility of the President. He
says the President is not responsible to
the Electoral College. True enough
The Presidential electors have no official
existence after they have cast their
votes. Their functions then cease. But
the President is responsible, as Mr.. Cal
houn says, by the method of impeach-
ment, to the people, through Congress.
And so are the Judges. According to
the administration theory, only Senators
under our government are entirely ire
sponsible and Independent of any power.
They alone are masters and the people
are the servants. What monstrous
doctrine in land where the good old
Virginia principle hes been supposed to
be predominant, that ''al power is vested
IN, and consequently derived from, the
people; that magistrates are their trus-
tees and servants and at al times
amenable 10 them r The other day the
Observation-Disclosures of the Republic of
France recognizing the doctrine of in

alternative was presented of becoming
the instrument of doing what did not
accord with his own judgment, or of
setting his will above the power from
which he derived his authority.

The WAsHINGroN Posr's article
naming certain Democratic Congress
men elect who have been marked out for
criminal prosecution and imprisonment
by the Radicals to destroy the Democrat
lie majority in the next House of Repre-
sentatives, is purely sensational so far as
Gen. Chalmers is concerned. The Radi-
cal leaders who were base enough to
cheat the people out of their choice of
President aud to bulldoze into the office
the candidate whom the people had re-
jected by their votes, is equal to almost
any desperate scheme. But though they
are Interruptions. they are pot fools.
They know that the opponent of Gen.
Chalmers after threatening to contest his
FIRST election abandoned the intention for
the want of sufficient grounds aud that
In the last election, he had no regular
opposition and the interest in the cleo
ton was absorbed in the suffering. and
the awful feeling inspired by the yellow
fever pestilence The Radical despera-
dos may undo what the people have
done in fixing the political status of the
next Congress; bat mark our word, they
will not do it by unseating the member
from the 9th Mississippi District. The
game-cock' is on his perch.

proper preparation, watchfulnes-, cAution,

Exciting News From Washington

Last week the struggle commenced
between the two parties in the lower
house Of Congress over the repeal of the
loyal test oath and the law for the APP
pointment Of federal supervisors of cleo
tions with the military paraphernalia
attending it. The Democrats proposed
to affix the repeal of both as riders to the
legislative appropriation bill The for
mer was carried with but little difficulty.
The solid Democracy and nine RepubIi-
cans voting for repeal. The hard fight
was upon the supervisors law. The
Northern and Southern Democracy
again presented a united front,
and was confronted by the entire
Republican membership, excepting Mr..
Kelly Of Pennsylvania.

"Sectionalism," Reconstruction" DC.
What it says in depreciation and denun-
citation Of lawlessness, we cannot too
warmly approve. But we do not think
it is just to describe this condition of
affairs as peculiar to the much abused
"South." We who have been Il close
observer of the times, and of passing
events as chronicled in an exchange list
embracing newspapers from every quar-
ter Of the Union, do not hesitate to de-
clare that Notwithstanding the confusion
consequent upon the overturning of the
established order of things in the South.

law makers, crime is far more prevalent

moment in Connecticut, the boosted land
of steady habits, for example, there are
several murder trials pending, the Incl
dents Of which, occurring in what were
known as the best circles, would make

cular containing very important ''sug-

will be responsible for the consequences.
