the new Ministry has entered upon its
reign with such surprising mildness
that all opposition seems to have been

eism may cost him his seat.
Russia is principally engaged in try

them, and in France popular interest is
divided between the moral de-
pravity OF the Southern end

THl HAsLAs AND RILEY RACE.

The very sudden resignation Of Sena-
tor Gordon, of Georgia, is provoking a
great deal Of gossip In Washington, and
there is an impression abroad that a
skeleton in his political closet caused
his resignation. His own reasons, are a
trihe gsuzy. By a strict party vote SEN
ator Bayard's deputy marshal bill pass
oil the Senate yesterday. The latest
reliable count Of Grants strength gives
him, with Illinois, 4l0 votes on the first
ballot, and the present would be good
time for the straddlsrs TO sling the other
leg over the fence. The sundry civil
appropriation bill as reported by the
committee, is reasonably robust. Its
aggregate is nearly twenty -one
millions Of dollars. The Kellogg reso-
lutions have been indefinitely postponed,
and that adyenturer may now rest in
such ease as his conscience will allow him.
Randolph, Of New Jersey, is beginning
to be gossiped about as a Democratic
dark horse.

SpcciAl 10 the htklhtff.
WASHINGTON, May u.
The Senate spent portion OF yester-
day, as usual, listening to further argu-
ment in the Kellogg case by Senator
Garland. 1t was expected that Senator
Herman would begin in the afternoon an
argument which, il Is understood, he
had prepared in the case. but very much
to the surprise Of the few auditors in
the galleries, Mr.. Bsysrd, about b
o'clock, moved 10 indefinitely postpone
the further consideration Of the pend
ing question which was the report OF
the committee in this case. This mo-
ton was carried by q vote OF % ayes
to Is nays, and as Conkling was at some
pains 10 explain, the case will now lie
conveniently out Of the way until the
senate votes TO take il up again. The
precise purpose and bearings OF this
new move in the case are not clear y un-
derstood, but an impression obtains
that the matter will not again come
prominently before the Senate during
this session at least
Since Gov. Hampton's speech a lew
DAYS ago, and in view of the announce
ment that the position he
took regarding the disposal
Of the case would be sustained,
by such prominent leaders as Thurman
and Baysrd, il has scarcely been con-
sidersd doubtful that the movement TO
oust Kellogg would fail when a hnd
vote Was taken. The promoters OF this
movement are not disposed, thereiore,
to press the matter just now, and per
hans All parties are willing TO drop dis
cussion which promises TO do no good,
but rather 10 result in dissenslon and
derision. kellogg meanwhile will re-
tain his seat and 10 good service as
irightful example OF the results OF mis-
rule in the South and Of partisan ludg-
ment in the senate.

Forty-Two Votes Solid for the Candidate Of

Die Fighting.
THE plUMsD KNIGHT SHOWED UNDER

The result OF the Republican Conven-
ton of Illinois has sharply indicated
the supreme issue upon which the ma
tional campaign Of November must be
fought. 1t will be the people against
the Empire, the persistent approach OF
which is accentuated by every forward
stride Of the cohorts OF Grant toward
victory. That Grant will achieve the
nomination in Chicago there is no longer
room TO doubt. In another column we
publish the agreeing estimates OF his
strength made by Don Cameron,
and ex.Postmaster General Cresswell
Their figures, which are borne out
by the records OF the conyen-
tions already held, give to Grant
40 yotes-or .thirty-one more than is
necessary 10 nominate on the first bal
lot. And he will get them, every one,
and to quote Mr.. Tlden, II were "futile
dalliance" to longer cherish even the
faintest hope OF any other outcome oi
the Chicago convention.
Blaine Republicans may yet, If they
will, hug to their bo,oms the deluslve
fancy OF their leaders success, but for
Democrats the time is at hand now, to
awake to the supreme issue involved in
the nomination of "the Man on Horse
back" His nomination means the utter
subversion OF the principle that this
government is Of the people, by the
people, and for the people.
1t means absolute Capitalization
of power, and the insidious approach OF
the Empire. 1t means rule OF blood
and iron, and the building up Of an aris'
tocrscy Of money. 1t means domina-
ton OF the civil power by the military,
and il means to be successful at every
hazard. The Republicans who are be-
hind Grant are hanging on with des.
perate clutches to their final support on
the brink Of the abyss of the last ditch,
and, il defeated at the polls, they want
man at their head who will plunge the
country into revolution rather than
surrender the official power which
during the last twenty years
they have stepped in the vilest pools OF
fraud and corruption that ever disgraced
any government with the least preten-
sion TO honesty.
The issue has been made. ltcan only
be met with the unalterable determine
ton not ts have Grant. Grant means
Empire. Never Grant! All things
which his name signify imperil the sta.
bility of the Republic. Not Grant then.

erything else, but stick to this : NErER

His Real Reasons Not Yet Disclosed
A Political Enemy Elevated - the Va
0anCu


A Political Enemy Elevated t. the Va
cancy
WASHINGTON, May 2l.-A prominent
topic Of political gossip here is the very
sudden resignation Of Senator Gordon,
OF Georgia. There is strong impress
sion that there is a niger in the fence
not vet discovered Gordon saws he re-
signed because his private affairs de-
manded such attention as he could not
give them while in the Senate, and, in
sddition, he has found his Senatorial
salary too small for his requirements.
Now. il this were really the only cause
OF his resignation, il seems strange that
within eleven days OF the close Of a ses-
sion of Congress he should throw away
5000, when, by deferring his resigna-
ton until next December, he could real
ize nearly that amount as salary and
have. the six months time at his dis
pOsal 10 attend To his private af-
fairs Again, Ex-Governor Brown, who
in chosen to succeed him, is Cor
dons bitter enemy, and personally the
last man in the world Gordon would
willingly advance, through any act Of
his own, TO political preferment. Ii is
known that Gordon and Aleck Steph-
ems have not been the best OF friends,
and recently, both openly and covertly,
the ex-C Confederate Vice President has
very seriously criticised GOrdon's con-
nection with the Penitentiary contracts
in Georgia, but il is not believed thSt it
had any direct effect in inducing Cor
dOn's resignation. Ben Hill and Cor
don have also been at loggerheads, be-
cause the latter at a Democratic caucus
announced that he would not
vote to dispossess kellogg. Ii is known
that this determination brought to Cor
don food OF letters from his State de-
nouncing his course in this respect; and
il is believed that Hill instigated the
writing OF many of them. Still, it is not
thought that this would have constrained
Gordon to resign. Ii is said here that
the resignation was not an act OF dclib-
Grafton, but was telegraphed three
nights ago from Willard's Hotel, and
was an act which was never contem-
plated by the Senator on the morning
Of the night il was sent. Altogether the
reasons given by the Senator are not be-
lieved TO be the only ones which con-
strained him to resign, and there is an
impression that il he would give the
real reasons, they would prove ofPublic

on Trial
ST. PETRRsBURG, May 2l.-The pro-
ceedings in the trial of the Nihilists yes.
terday, afforded much interest. A
large number OF spectators were present,
but the attendance was composed chiefly
OF high government functionaries. Not
a lady appeared in the court room. The
President, General Leicht. conducts the
proceedings slowly and with great self.
possession. Yesterday the case against
Michaelof assumed graver character.
The groom fran Tattersalls deposes cate
goricslly % the fact that Michselofi
was the man who went 10 the establish.
ment daily, attired principally rs a
coachman ,sand tried the horse. Another
groom, and also the director OF latter
sails, who is a German, is less positive
as to hus identity, hut the President,
who understands the German language,
induced the director 10 he more afirma-
tive in his answers. All this has a yisi.
BILE effect upon Michaelof, who declined
to say anything more in his defense.
Al present his guilt seems 10 be estab.
lished DR.. Weiman will probably be
