Pittsburgh Dispatch 2ad.
The Democratic primaries on Saturday
did not differ materially from other affairs
OF their kind. They resulted favorably
for Mr.. Tiiden, but this is not very alarm
ing to the Wallace faction. as such result
has been anticipated for some time in this
county. MIR, Wallace's strong hold will
be manifested in tho state convention. ard
there is little doubt that Allegheny county
delegates will be found acting with the
minority in that body. IF any Tiden dele
gates are elected to the Cincinnati con-
vention by courtesy of Senator Wallace.
they will be squeiched by the operation of
unit rule, which both Mr. Tilden and
Mr.. Wallace are peculiarly interested ia
preserving in force. The usual charges
of fraud are made by both sides in many
of the contests of Saturday, but as a fraud
is inseparable from all party primaries
the people will not become violently ex-
cited on this point.

Executive Appointments
from the States. !

The failure of Gov. Wilt to send
to the Senate for confirmation, be.
fore it's adjournment, the various
appointments he is required to make,
has elected much comment and not
a little dissatisfaction. With the
exception of the Supreme and Dis
trict Court Judges. no other ap.
pointments, We believe, were sub
mitted for the action, Of the Senate.
1t il claimed that Article 60 Of the
Constitution has been evaded, and
its object defeated BY thus withhold.
ing executive appointments until az.
ter adjournment of the Legislature.
Of the Governors power 10 appoint
the Constitution says:
Article IS. He shall nominate,
and by and with the advice and con.
sent of the Senate, appoint all Off
GERS whose offices are established by
this constitution, aud whose ap.
pointinents or elections are not here
in otherwise provided for; provided,
however, that the General Assem-.
big shall have the right to prescribe
the mode OF appointment or election
to all offices created by it.
In view Of biennial sessions Of the
General Assembly, an invocation of
the new Constitution, it was never
contemplated by that instrument
that appointments should be made
and held over for two years without
being sanctioned to by the Senate,
when such appointments could have
been made during the session of
that body. Vacancies occurring af
ter adjournment of the General AS
sembly of course must be filled
without delay.
But it was generally expected that
in the organization of the State
government, under new Constitu.
ton, the Senate would have been
consulted in the appointments tor
the different new officers created by
the organic law of the State. The
failure on the part of the Governor
to comply with this expectatian has
caused much disappointment and a
number of Senators have freely ex
pressed themselves as dissatisfied
with this seeming disregard of their
constitutional prcrogative ofpassing
upon all Executive appointments.

Another Blundsr.

CHIOAGo, Nov. 16.--The Tribune, COM
mentingOn its indianapolis says: The
Indiana supreme court has made anoth-
or bluhder, which is more ridiculous, if less
important. than their now famous decision on
the constitutional amendments. Mrs. Brown,
the alleged murderer of her husband, was
granted 2 new trial by the court on the
ground that two Jurors named Tyner and
Dawson were incompetent to serve on the
jury because they were preiudlced against
the accused. 1t now appears that neither
Dawson nor Tyner served on the jnry at all,
that they were perempterily challenged and
set aside blythe counsel tor Mrs. Brown. 1t
also appears that the jury was accepted be-
forefhe right of the defense to peremptorily
challenge had been exhausted. So the fact
that they had not been set aside for cause did
not prejudice the case of the accused. The
