BAD FOR THE CzAR,-That crown
that now graces the heads Of both sexes
IN Europe and other { Continents, does
not seem to make the wearers thereof
fell free and easy after all the glory
and pageantry that surrounds their
habitations. The Czar of Russia seems
to be the most disturbed Just now. A
cable telegram of the goth says "Guy
Fawkes has been fairly beaten at his
own sinful game by miserable Mus.
Oavite-the unknown individual who
yesterday gave annoying proof of Il too
sincere belief IN Nihilism by attemp-
ting to blow up the Gar of All the
Russias, together with his whole family,
In the way of moralizlng there is
nothing to be said about this latest ad.
venture Of the Cars that has not been
said several times before. This ecoen.
tric autocrat seems disposed to wager
his life against the rights and just lib.
critics of his subjects, and, so far, he
has won both stakes. No one can
doubt, however, that in the long run
he will lose, and good many people
will be inclined TO think when bis sub
jects do succeed in killing him that a
certain amount Of justice has been
mixed up with their revenge, In the
meantime, the Gar will have to add
to his various sets of guards fresh set
charged with the duty of keeping men,
bers of the Fawkes family out of the
Imperial cellars"

MORE CRow.-They say that it is q
dirty bird that soils its own nest. The
Radical cormorants in Chester county,
who are all after office, feignod much
indignation over the proceedings of the
Cameron State Convention, and few
days thereafter held meeting and
gave vent to their loyal feelings. The
JefrSonian, in alluding to this loyal
gush says that the so.called bolt in
West Chester against the action of the
Harrisburg Convention in instructing
for Grant was "a melancholy fzzle, "
and that "thcre was not o Republican
present who would not cat his dish Of
Cameron crow Il necessary by voting
for Grant"

change says that Hon. Henry Green
tho Republican candidate for Judge of
the Supreme Court, has yet to make
his reputation as Judge. Though
appointed to fill the vacancy caused
by the death of Judge Woodward, he
has never been able to take his seat
on the bench, owing to illness which
has long confined him to his house.
Mr.. Green is lawyer of established
character, but he has still TO prove
that he will make good Judge. He
has been drawing the pay Of Judge
for six months, although he never took
q scat on the bench.

STUBBORN FAcTs.-Mr Mcpherson
editor of the Philadelphia Press, which
assumes to be the leading Stalwart
Radical organ Of this State, has been
kicking in the traces since the late
Cameron Convention. In late issue
of that loyal organ he said "The
Pittston Gazette calls attention to the
TACT that Lackawanna and Luzerne
furnished seven of the votes which
were wrested from Blaine by special
influences. Crawford, Lycoming, Perry
and Centre furnished five more. Be-
sides these betrayals, the regularly
elected Senatorial delegates in the Un.
ion district, and IN the Somerset dis.
trict, and in the York district, gere
unseated by packed committee ap-
pointment by the temporary chairman,
and Grant men without claims were
put in their places. These fifteen
chances reversed the complexion of the
the Convention, But for them, the
Grant resolution would have been
beaten by ten votes, notwithstanding
the solidity of the Philadelphia dele.
cation in voting for personal reasons
against its judgment" The first thing
Mcpherson knows somebody else will
be editor OF the Press

WELL SAID.--The Somerset Demo.
crdt remarks: Whatever may be
thought of the cxpediency of Senator
Bayard's resolution at the present
time, in relation to legal.tender notes,
there will be universal approval of the
sentiment incidentally introduced in
his speech, regarding the intor-oceanic
canal, This scheme, said he, 'oi
uniting the two great oceans by ca
nal across the isthmus on the southern
border of this Continent is one OF
world wide Importance, and the heart
OF every American proclaims that it is
to be under the control of the Govern.

IHE IHAMr bnw-The Hartford
Conn Cowdnt sent out circulars to
the selectmen Of every town in the
State asking questions about the oper-
alton OF the tramp law passed by the
last Legislature, One question was,
"Has the law resulted in practically
freeing your town from trampsY" The
uniform answer is that it has. "Has
it been used to oppress deserving
men ?" was another question. To this
there is a negative reply in all cases.
1t is reported that it is sustained by
public opinion almost to a man. Spo-
cific benefits are said TO be the lower.

The Maine House Of Representatives gains no

MR. HA YES AND TIE SENA TIE

One Of Mr.. Hayes organs charges
that the Democrats Of the Senate insist
on nominating half the Census Super
visors. This is a very silly falsehood.
Mr.. Hayes right TO nominate is not
questioned in the Senate or anywhere
else. lie can send in, or decline to
send in, the name OF any applicant, and
the Senate has no right TO question his
motives. 1t happens, however, that
Mr.. Hayes is not oil Of the appointing
power His nomination is but the first
step towards making an officer, The
consent or cooperation Of the Senate
is as essential as the initial proceeding.
And Mr. Hayes has no moro authority
over confirmation or rejection than the
Senate has in the matter of nomina.
tion.
The Presidential office, under the
existing usurpation, has been quite
sufficiently magnifed without further
invasion of our Governmental mech.
anism. During the extra session new
and startling departure was made by
an unprecedented construction and un'
authorized use of the more than mon
archical veto power, The de tdcfc
Executive invades the province Of the
Legislative Department in a manner
never before dreamed of by the most
latitudinarian oonstruer OF constitu
tional law, If that aggression is TO be
followed up by an attempted absorp
ton of executive functions Of the Sen
ate, Mr.. Hayes and his hackers will
ma tnat they nave reached the end Of
their invading march
Had the trainers of the Constitution
intended that the word of President
should suffice to appoint an officer
they would have left ont the entire
business of confirmation. They could
not possibly have delegated to the
Senate the duty of merely saying $50
mote it be- to the motions Of the oxecu.
tive head. They provided for the free
and unquestioned exercise of the judg.
ment of the Senate, and the only thing
left for President to do is TO keep
nominating until he can secure "thc
consent Of the Senate"
As to these Supervisors, there will
be no trouble when Mr.. Hayes decides
to take the spirit OF the law as his
guide, instead of running the appoint
ments in his party rut for the benefit
of Mr., Sherman Washington Post
