Kentucky than first appearances indicated. 1t "a
evident that Blaokburn's majority will exceed
that given either Leslie or McCreary, and will
probably run over 10000 The Republicans have
made some gains in the Legislature-three or four

WHAT INVESTIGATIONS HAVE
TAUGHT.
New York Herald, Ind.l

Senator Bayard was undoubtedly wise when he
urged the Republicans to help to repeal the Elec.
toDs Marshals law, and held that no party ought
to be trusted with such power when In possession
Of the Government, and that the Republicans
would some day keenly regret their opposition to
the repeal because the law was necessarily cor
rupting to them and would be to the Democrats
II they should ever get power. In resisting the
repeal at the extra session the Republicans put
themselves In the wrong before the country, for
they cannot defend such scandals as the investi
cations are uncovering. The country may con-
gratulate itself that the Democrats have SO abso.
lutely committed themselves to the repeal Of the
Marshals law Some day they may have to be
held TO their present utterances

Scotch PresbyterianiSm is torn by the case Of q
the Rev, DR.. Macrae, who has been tried and sua-
pended for disbelieving the doctrine Of eternal
punishment. Before the synod in Edinburgh he
endeavored to prove from the Scriptures that the
bad have not the same possibility Of life in them
as the good that evil has no everlasting existence
and that the universe will eventually be purified
from sin. He disclaimed any intention Of i'm.
posing new dogma on the Church, and only
asked liberty to hold his own views The majori.

The other day according to the Treasury ofic.

name the largest investment in bonds ever made
at one time by one individual for private account
in this country His purchase consisted Of "a 900
900 United States four per cent bonds, each bond
of the value of S5O,OOO They were bought, 1t is
said, as an investment for the family. And these
four millions with many million beside, are the
products Of the coolest plunder any criminal was
ever guilty Of, The elder Vanderbilt whose pol.
luted character was given to the country by his
children not long since, seized on the Mississippi
Valley, that was as much the property Of the pub
lie as the Ohio river or the lakes, and by watering
the stock, succeeded in purchasing connecting
lines, until his robbery passed all control Of law.
And now the son, who was openly charged by his
own brothers and sisters with having palmed off
mistress on father as his wife, that he might nhu
ence the old brigand to leave the bulk Of his pro
peTty to the rogue, invests four millions Of swag
In Illegal bonds. Well, day Of settlement is not
