NAMES LEGISLATURE,

The Supreme judicial court completed
Monday evening a unanimous decision de-
clining to recognize the fusionist bodies at
Augusta and explicitly declaring the house
and senate now holding sessions in the State
House the legal legislature of Maine. The
fusionists are very much depressed at the re-
ception of news from the court. Maj. Smith
said he believed that the controversy had now
ended. he said that while the previous opin-
ion Of the Judges was based on the Republic
an statement there was room for reasonable
doubt, but in view Of the fact that the court
had decided against them on the fusion state
ment they could but gracefully submit he
had got through playing governor and should
60 home. Maj. Smiths views will be adopted
by tho better part Of TIE fusionists who will
take their seats in the legislature. Sawyer
says be still considers himself secretary Of
state. Henry Ingalls,, a leading member Of
the fusion house, says be is not prepared to
give an opinion. but has always been in favor
Of yielding TO the court.
The Fusion house, on the 9th, accepted the
report of the committee on investigation that
they notified Wallace r. White, against whom
charges Of bribery were made, to appear be-
fore them, but he had failed to do So Ad-
journed till Tuesday. The senate did not

Last week IN lizard county, two deputy
sherifs from franklin county, with warrants
for Bunch and Valentine the assasins of N. d.
Sadler, came to sheriff Landers for assistance
in arresting the two at squire Woods farm.
posse was furnished and they going to the
place and peering in, the two men supposed
TO be recognized, the possee went tn the door
and demanded a surrender and ordered the
occupants to come out. The two Young men
within named Wheat and Chambers without
otherwise responding went to the door and
the former fired two shots at the sheriff 4
posse with pistol. One of the deputi re-
turned the fire promptly and killed Wheat in.

of age and formerly lived in Douglas county.

separated, and children live. He was m.

verdict was rendered accordingly,
John L. Soper, Il highly respectable
farmer living four miles south Of Kearney
Mo, was assassinated in his barn yard ON the
evening Of the 30th. The latest reports state
that he was shot about six o'clock on that
evening while feeding his cattle. The ASSASSIN
is unknown, and as no cause for the deed car
be assigned, the natural and general inference
is that this foul murder is due in some wa,
to the James boys. This view of the case ex
cites much alarm, as it is not known VIII,

Gen. Sherman on the Soldiers,

We are permitted, through the courtesy
of the gentleman to whom it is addressed,
to make public the following interesting
and characteristic letter of late date from
Major.Gen. Sherman;
HEAD QUARTERS ARMY OF THE U. s, I
WAsHINGT ON, d. G. Jan Ia, 1880. I
E. B. STEPHENS, Esq, Binghampton,
N. Y: Dear Friend: have read with
real interest your quaint but most sensible
speech before Post Watrous, Binghamp-
ton, N. Y. | myself have often been re-
minded of the great promises made in
1864 by both great political parties to the
soldiers, who, beyond question, saved our
Government from di solution. Whether
the promises then made have been fulfilled
or not, don't like to question, because a
pension list of $32 900, 1000 annually does
seem as much as generosity demands, or
the country can stand, and the allowances
to crippled soldiers in this c'untry exceed
tar what is granted in any otherj still, the
debt of the nation to our soldiers cannot
be overestimated or exaggerated. There
is also occasionally manifested by the
public feeling that soldiers meetings foi
social interchange of thought are calculat
ed to keep alive sectional animosity. This
should be resisted-such meetings are
natural and proper, and we would be re-
creant to our cause if we hesitate thus Il
meet and exchange views on all proper
occasions. | am sure the real soldiers oI
the civil war have made the best citizens
and they ought never TO hesitate to homo
their associates, and to declare with EN-
phasis that. though most peaceably in.
clined, they will not fail TO respond shoult
any faction dare to disturb the peace W,
conquered Yours truly,

COMMERCIAL.

Messrs, Lynde, Wright & Co.. of Kan.
sas City, furnish the following reliable re-
view of the grain trade for the past week:
Wheat-A further decline of seven to seven
and half cents occurred during the week
just closed, making a continuous decline of
twenty cents n bushel since the close of the
past year. This reduction in values brought
our markets to an exporting basis, and an
active demand for foreign account is report
ed in consequence from the seaboard.
The natural reaction from snch ex.
tremc depression has OccasiOned re-
covery of 81 to cents from Saturday
prices. At present prices q natural decrease
in our present large stocks is looked for.
European markets have shown some sym.
pathy with the weakness here, and cables
have quoted the two varieties two to fouI
pence per GENITAL lower.
Our Visible Supply" hns increased to 81,
100000 bushels. Exports for the past week
were but 65S, III bushels.
COrn-Ghe same demoralized condition at
tended the trading in corn that was noticeable
in wheat, and values for the week deprecated
fully three cents, part of which has been re
covered. The export demand shows an i'm
prOvemeut over previous week and while de-
liveries from farmers have been liberal stock,
show but slight increase
Oats and Rye--In these cereals lower price,
have also been conceded and trading has beer
very irregular in sympathy with the genera
weakness in all other grains.

,Indce Kelly ON the PnhIio Dnht

Tho proposition of Judge Kelly to pay
off that portion Of the public debt which
becomes redeemable at the option of the
government between now and September,
1891, instead Of reiunding any portion of
it, is attracting considerable attention
and is favorably regarded by many mem
bers of congress. The loans aggregate
81, ,03l $4,000, and include all the out
standing bonds of the government, except
the four per cents, the refunding of which
was recently completed, and which will
not become redeemable until July lst,
1907. 10 refund the loans, therefore.
which are about maturing and that which
will mature in 1891, would place the pub
lie debt beyond the control Of the govern.
ment until 1907, period of twenty-seven
years. Judge Kelley's plan is to pay off
the $l,03l ,S40,9O0 in the twenty-seven
years intervening between the present time
and 1907 by maintaining sinking fund
and purchasing and cancelling one twenty
seventh of the total amount above stated
annually, which wouldrequre the payment
each year, on account Of principal Of $3S,.
PIG, $50, exclusive of interest. BY this
plan the skies would be paid off
in six years, the fves in thirteen
years, and the four and a halls in six
years, thus cancelling the entire SAL ,03l,-
lS4, 900 in twenty-five years. The last or
twenty-ftth installment of the principal
being $4S, ,2l6,32O, a calculation on this
basis shows that the aggregate amount
which would be paid during twenty five
years on account Of interest Is 1886, AL, =
068, which is about two and one-half per
cent per annum for the entire amount of
principal, thus paid. Judge Kelley claims
that if the same amount were refunded in
thirty years, the loan beng four per cent.
interest per annum as proposed by Secre.
tary Sherman, the amount which would
be required for interest alone for the thir-
ty years would be $1,23S, ,209,080, sum
greater than the principal, which would
be still due at the end of that period. II
the same amount were refunded in hity
years loan at 3l5 per cent. per annum,
the amount required for interest for that
period would be $l,S05, I'll, $50 Or nearly
5000, 900, 900 more than would be requir.
