"rHE GARlIELD CONsPIRACY."

All doubt as to the ability of the Democrats
to organize the next House seems to have dis
appeared. There was probably never any very
serious question about it, but the Greenback Deo-
Die were so lond and confident in their claim of
holding the balance of power, so many were
sick, with the prospect of being unable to be
present at the opening of the session, and the
peDItentiary yawned for so many more. that
some of the leaders week or two ago were
exhibiting symptoms of alarm. Under the
pressure of such peril they began to cast
about for means of escape. 1t WAS question
whether upon the whole it would not be found
necessary for the Clerk To resort to arbitrary

Professor Benjamin Peirce, of Harvard Col
Iege, has promulgated startling theory with
respect to the origin of meteors and comets
All outline of which is given on another page.
His belief is that the solar system is inclOsed
in vast spherical envelope or shell of matter

"the meteors," and from which, IN his judg-

The three executions of yesterday, in New
England, were conducted with such order and
decency that those who had them in charge
deserve more than passing word of com
mendation. The arrangements respecting the
preservation of peace by the attendant crowds
seem to have been as thorough as the precau-
tions against bungli0g in the executions them
selves. All three men died without struggle,
and without any of the mishaps which have
made recent executions so horrible. They
seem to manage these things better in New
England.

The anti-Smyth movement has gracefully
expired. The bill to abolish the Insurance
Department, which was apparently growth
from this hostility, was cOurteously done to
death yesterday in the Assembly; and Mr.
WadswOrth, calling up his resolution, which
asked for Mr. Smyth's resignation, magnani-
nously took the whole responsibility of it
upon his own shoulders. He then left it to
the mercies of his colleagues, who declined,

There is at least one lesson to be
drawn from the recent violent contact Of
tyn blackguarls in San Francisco and
that is that newspaper tyrant Is occa-
sionally compelled to face the muslr
even in this country of license. Mr..
Charles De Young, the coupe assassin
pleads through his newspaper, the
Chronicle, for sympathy on The ground
that the disrepuiable Kalloch had assail-
ed the character of his mother and had
compelled him as a man of some sellsi-
billy to attempt the role Of murder Mr.
De Yoiing has for some years been a
public adventurer only less disreputable
than Kalloch because never compelled
to play the hypocrite. With a news
paper aud some money at his back he
has underl aiken to make himself "the
boss' of the Pacific Slope. A year ago
he was leader among the Hoodlums.
He wanted to compel the capitalists of
California to recognize him and placate
him. Proper influence being brought o
hear he ranged himself on the side Of
wealth and responsibility and went TO
making war on his old trends, the alleg-
ed Wplkingm n. When the disrepula-
Bile Kalloch was nominate for Mayor he
made his boasts that he would drive him
off the ticSet. Kalloch refused to be
driven aud then the journalistic pirate
began his work. Not content with adj
vertislng 1he wickedness Of the disgraced
pastor lie dug his father up from the

Kalloch's family in pursuance If poll
cy of malice Mr.. De Young had right
to expect that the foulest lies and slam
\ ders ever invented alb ut those held dear
and sacred by h m would be fevampcd
and peddled through the streets. Mr..
Kallocll's repetition OF the slandel
against De Young's mother was the
work of wicked desparado but it was

st lies that ''the South has been msun'

sometimes hyimmicratinii agents OF other
States, often by design ng politician and
partisan newspapers, aud occasionally
Dy those " ho, having travelled through
the country, are therefore presumed To

In order to d spell this misconception
an effective plan has been adopted by
which the ex erieHce OF many imml-
gra is IN Georgia is made to bear testi-
mony. A host Of letters are given from
about fifty diff rent counties, in the
state, which contain the experience OF
actual settlers in regard to ths Ma ura
resources of soil and innate Of Georgia
the moral and spcia' condition of th,
people, their disposition towards imm
grants, aud the social position which
may be accorded to such Immigrants
