The Texas Falibusters.

A San Antonio (Texas) special
says: The movements of the filibus-
tiers, styled the army of occupation,
which is being agitated at Austin,
Texas, is being closely watched by
General Ord, whose orders in regard
TO the neutrality laws are very strict
The Mexicans are reported to be also
ready to give them a warm reception
General Ord thinks there is little in
the movement 1t is probably inaug-
uratel by the German or English in
Hnences in Mexico TO interrupt the
good feeling between the United
States and Mexico, and thus retard
railroad building, which would great
ly endanger their trade.

fearing to proceed further, having been
informed that the people at Cherry
Vale, Kansas, were awaiting their ar
rival there The eagerness of the
people to see the prisoners was SO
great that Sheriff Bender placed them
upon exhibition at the Theater
Comique, charging an admission OF
twenty-five cents. This proceeding
was severely condemned by the coun-
ty and city officials. At 5 o'clock the
prisoners were started for Oswego,

views Of gen. Hancock.

The Herald interviewed Gen. Han
cock on the 7th regarding the omis-
sion from his letter Of acceptance Of
his views on free ships and the reve-
nue. tariff. Hancock said: Il have
very definite views, clear to my own
mind, at least, upon both topics, and !
trust upon others which concern the
cuuntry's welfare. 1t was not with
out serious debate that | concluded
they had no proper place in the letter.
Two considerations prevailed. First
That letter Of acceptance was not
the right medium through which to an
nounce my final judgment upon any

situation Of the party by set Of ex-
prcssions superhnous to its adopted
platform and principles, with which,
as said before, | am in full accord"
The questions Of tariff and free ships
were so interesting to Hancock that
he did not refrain from a private dis
cussion of them, which was intensely
and at the same time tam
talizing to his listener, whom the Gen
forbade to record word of it. no
said he, Il do not propose to supple

rhe seawanahaka Disaster. =

The grand jury in the United States
Court on the 10th made presentment in
the Scawanahaka disaster case. They say
they believe the accident was due to crimi-
nal carelessness and negligence Of certain
Government officials, officers and owners
ofthe vessel. Attached were indictments
against them. The offensc charged is
manslaughter. A bench warrant Of arrest
has been issued Certified copies OF the
presentment have been forwarded to the
President heads of the Senate and House
of Representatives, the Attorney General
and the Secretary of the Treasury.
Necessary Legislation to remedy existing
evils and correct Irregularities are strongly
urged. Capt Smith received great praise
from the public and commentator in the
newspapers for his conduct at the time of
the disaster in remaining in the wheel,
house until the boat was beached, although
the flames surrounded him and he was
badly burned The grand jury says that
by his felonious misconduct, negligence
and inattention to his duties, and his fail
ure to provide the steamer with such life
saving apparatussas would best secure the
safety Of all on board in case Of disaster,
he was guilty of manslaughter The other
indictments are similar in their nature,
and all charge the indicted persons with
manslaughter.

trary, and l desire that all may know
and understand them"
Here it will be seen that General
Hancock was fully committed to the
declaration of Wade Hampton, as incor-
porated in the National platform, that
the reconstruction acts are "uncOnstltu-
tional and void" and to be set aside, as
Blair suggested, by Presidential procla-
nation, without consulting the law
making power of the Government. The
people of the United States took alarm
at this revolutionary dogma, and it con-
tributed more than anything else to the
defeat of Seymour and Blair. And they
had good reason to be alarmed. The Re-
construction Acts of Congress were
drawn in perfect harm ony with the Con-
stitution as amended. To treat them as
unconstitutional and void" would be
practically to ignore the amendments to
the Constitution and deny their validity.
And that is precisely what the Demo-
Gratis intended to do. Had Seymour
been elected, and the programme car
ried out we should have had the fine
precedent of a President acting in the
capacity of Court, jury and Sheriff,
stamping out Congressional acts as un-
constitutional, without a decision of the
Supreme Court, and setting himself
above the other and coordinate branch
e5 of the Government.
The same issue exists to-day. The
Democracy propose to wipe out the Re
construction Acts. and all other war
legislation, nullify the amendments to
the Constitution, ahd if possible restore
the state of things that existed prior to
1860, all in the name of Cancellation and
peace. In other words, they propose a
complete surrender to their old South
masters. How far Hancock can be re-
lied upon to cooperate with them in
this scheme may be inferred from Han
cocks letter to Grover, and his accept
ance of the platform of 1868, after Cen
eral Blair had given it its true interpre-
tation.
If the people are as wide awake to
their interests in 1880 as they were in
1868, and insist that the war legislation
and the amendments to the Constitution
shall stand, as embodying the best re-
suits of the war for the Union, they will
return the same verdict against Han
cock and English that they then did
against Seymour and Blair.-[Cin. Com.

How HancOck's Success Would AT
feet Government Bonds.

One fact is worth more than thous-
and windy speeches. There is promi-
nent and Jealous Democrat in this city
who has been particularly vOciferOus in
advocating the election of General Han
cock. He did not expect Democratic
victory in Maine. he said; but counselled
everybody to wait for the vote of Indi-
ana. On Tuesday morning, as soon as
possible after hearing the unexpected
news of a so-called Democratic victory
in Maine, he went down to his bankers
and gave orders to sell quietly, and did
sell at once, fifty thousand dollars worth
of United States four per cent. bonds.
While boasting that the election of Gen
eral Hancock was now assured, he was
proving what he privately thought of
the consequences by selling out his Gov
ernment bonds; and he was right. The
bankers and business men of this city
were Of his opinion. The price dropped
three-eighths of one per cent during the
day, although as yet the result in Maine
was uncertain, and few failed to see that
the Fusion which existed there did not
exist in other States. In London, also,
decline in the price of American Gov
ernment bonds was at once produced by
the same fear of Democratic success.
Yesterday the news became more sat
isfactory to the Republicans. The GER
tainty that they had lost nothing. but
had gained upon their vote of last year,
and had secured both houses of the Leg
islature, three members of Congress, the
next Senator from Maine, and probably
the Governor, caused an immediate ad-
vance in Governments. The four per
cent bonds, which had closed on Tues
day at 1O9% bid, recovered their decline,
and closed last night ut 11O6 bid. The
confident Democrat who sold his Govern
monts and burned his tar-barrels in re-
joicing over another Confederate victory,
is sadly contemplating the fact that he
cannot get his bonds back without loss,
and learning that the Democratic party
usually brags more than it works, and
promises more than it PERFORMS n. Y.

THE Democratic National Convention
of 1858 declared, among other things, that
the Democracy regard "the Reconstruc-
tion Acts (so-called) of Congress, as
such, usurpations and unconstitutional,
revolutionary and void"
In his celebrated letter to Colonel
James O. Broadhead, General Frank
Blair, the candidate for the Vice Presi-
dency, interpreted this declaration, and
his understanding of it was assented to
by the party at large. Referring to the
Reconstruction Acts he said:
"There is but one way to restore the
Government and the Constitution, and
that is for the President-elect to declare
those acts null and void, compel the
army to undo its usurpations at the
South, disperse the carpet-bag State
Governments. allow the tchite people to
reorganize their own governments and
elect their own Senators and Represent
ativeS."
would say, wipe out the last vestiges of
war legislation.
This letter was written June 80, 1868,
and published throughout the United
States. Eighteen Gays later, and after
everybody had read the Democratic
platform and General Blair's interpre-
tation of the most significant passage in
it-put there, as Wade Hampton tells
us, at his own suggestion, and after per-
sistent urgency on his part General
Hancock, in letter dated at Newport,
II. l., July II, and addressed to S. f.

IT is rather pleasing to hear the Dem
ocratic outcry about fraud in Maine, es-
pecially as it is absurd. The truth seems
TO be that the money of the cock-eyed
statesmen, Tilden and Butler, was ex-
pended in the towns. There was not
time to distribute it. The bribery by
the reformers did not extend to the re-
mote rural districts, and their old fash
fashioned way of coming in has upset
calculations.-Cin. Commercial.
