as our original jurisdiction over cases
for the ren,osal Of judicial officers attaches
only where they are charged with official

part. The Judgment of the lower court
being erroneous, it is ordered that said
Judgment bo reversed, and proceeding to
render such Judgment as should have

Thurman's Faint.

[Correspol dence Cleveland Herald.l
Immediately after the morning hour Thnr-
man took the floor with the Geneva award,
and proceeded to make very brief explana-
ton of the reason why he should move to pass
informally over for that day the consideration
of that subject and take up another matter.
The Senate was not very full, most of the
Solons being up in committee rooms, but
Hamlin, one of the most active, steady push
ers of the Edmunds bill, was in his seat. He
at once opposed any further delay, and dis
patched page, who soon brought Blaine into
the chamber. He passed down quickly to his
seat and assumed that peculiar crouching atti-
tude which the Senators have learned to re-
gard as preliminary to his participation in de-
bate. This caused general turning of chairs
and facing about of the Senate so that all eyes
were directed on these two men. Thurman
apparently was annoyed at the sending for
Blaine, for until that gentleman came into the
chamber he had been speaking in rather slow
low tones, but as he caught the intent eye OF
the Maine Senator, he warmed up into his best
tones Of voice and spoke with unusual en-
phasis. lie paused for moment and asked,
"Who can explain this?" Blaine at once took
him at his word, and proceeded in his lively,
earnest style to do it, taunting and twitting as
he went along over the path OF his argument.
Thurman began to show the premonitory SYM
toms of wrath and annoyance, and replied to
Blaine with great vehemence and evident feel
ing, who in turn responded briefly with anoth-
er fervid, pointed illustration of the fallacy of
the-Thurman bill The galleries in the mean
time had filed up, Senators filed into their
hitherto empty seats so as to make a large au-
dience, and all attention was given to these
two men. AT the close of Blaine's second re-
tort to the Ohio Nestor, Thurman sprang to
his feet with that well-known flush of temper
and energy characteristic of him and instantly
recognized as such by his fellow Senators.
He, however, before uttering a word, clapped
his hand to his forehead and pressed it tightly
there Then dipping his fingers into the glass
of water standing on his desk before him he
deliberately moistened his temples in slow.
mechanical manner, and then, without having
spoken single word, he took the arm of Sena-
tor Eaton and tottered out of the chamber, es-
corted by a score of alarmed friends, Blaine
among the number.
The embarrassed, painful pause when Thur.
man stood silent for minute or two, reeling
with vertigo, was a sensation that the grave
and monotonous routine of the Senate is sell
dom treated to- 1t caused speedy adjourn
ment and sent a thousand idle rumors flying
around the city as to the nature Of Thurman's

Tilden's Latest Plot.

If anything were wanting to settle beyond
dispute the question of Mr.. Tildens active
candidacy it has been supplied by the letter
of Ell. Ell. Finley urging Mr.. Springer to vote
for the unseating of Mr.. Washburne. "Our
friends in New York; who, according to
that letter, were so anxious that Washburne
should be unseated because the saving of
ter before the contest is over, Enthusiastically
refers to Mr.. Tilden and that band of
Statesmen whose headquarters are at
Gramercy Park. Mr.. Finley by himself is a
very inconsequential person. He derives
all his Importance from the fact that he re-
fleets the opinions of the man who in 1876
plotted to buy the Presidency and only
failed because he haggled too long over the
price. And he does not attempt to disguise
this fact in his letter. His appeal to Mr..
of "our New York friends" There can be
no successful denial but that his'letter is
virtually letter from Mr.. Tilden.
But the letter does something more than
simply settle the question of Mr.. Tilden's
candidacy. 1t furnishes an insight into the
methods by which he hopes to become Pres
ident. The anxiety which he feels concern
ing the political complexion Of the House
points Enthusiastically to plot to throw the
election into that body. Perhaps he hopes
perhaps by some other method, for the Gra-
mercy-park statesman is an expert in ways
that are dark. Several months ago Senator
Carpenter asserted that the Democratic
leaders were concocting scheme of this
kind. Finley's letter confirms Mr.. Carpen-
ter's declaration. Tilden is determined to
sit in the Presidential chair if chicanery and
fraud can place him there, and the attempt
to blackmail Congressman Springer shows
how desperate he himself is and what dis
reputable and unscrupulous agents he en-
ploys.
The effect of the exposure in the House
is doubtful. To any other candidate than
Mr.. Tilden it would undoubtedly be fatal.
But the Gramercy sage seems to thrive on
such exposures. Defrauding the revenue,
wrecking railroads, cheating his friends in
business, and attempting to buy Presiden-
tial electors, have all been either confessed
by, or proved against, him; but nevertheless
to-day he is one of the most, if not the most,
prominent caodidate If the Democratic par
ty. The Democrats seem ready to forgive
the crime of getting found out, even when
committed by Mr.. Tilden.

The Orchestra of To- day.

The oboe resembles clarionet very much as
a rake resembles hoe, all the difference is
one end. The voice of the oboe is very much
like that of man trying to whistle with his
head under water. The orchestral composers
use the oboe on account of its simple, honest
qualitya to express II countryman going into
bank and asking the banker to lend him
$500 until Tilden is elected. In Jacobini's
beautiful creation, "Sounds from the Kitch-
en-" you will remember the oboes are used to
convey the remarks that pass between the
cook and the grocer's boy, who has just brought
home two gallonsof maple syrup in one gallon
kerosene can, and vice versa. The candid as
tonishment of the cook iDfuses the soul of the

Traits of Gladstone.

As public speaker and parliamentary de-
batter he has had no equal in England since the
days of Fox and Pitt, except perhaps Brough-
ham. He combines as no one else had done a
fervid eloquence, a copious and inexhaustible
command of language, marvellous knowledge,
a ready and retentive momory, and great and
varied powers of sarcasm and invective But
besides this he is unquestionably the greatest
fnancier of the day; his legislative achieve
ments surpass those of any other statesman;
he is great administrator and deep political
thinker. He is also eminently political lead
er, not party leader for in that
capacity he has been often surr.ssed,-
but great leader of the people on political
questions, a leades who can arouse the popular
conscience and guide popular opinion. Many
defects are joined to all this greatness but
what adds lustre to it is that these defects are
only intellectual. Unlike many great men, we
find in him no vices to apologize for or conceal.
Not only has his private life been Stainless but
his deep religious nature and high moral cor
victions have had such influence that, as has
been justly remarked, he has perceptibly
raised the standard of public life and political
morality in England. His faults are the
faults of an austerely earnest nature struggling
for the right, but not always perceving the
complex character OF political problems and
the strength and tendency of popular feeling,
and at times doing too little justice to the con-
duct and motives of opponents whose charaC-
ters are unlike his own, and the honesty of
whose opinions he cannot comprehend. Many
of the limitations of his mind and many of his
defects as practical statesman, as well as
much of his unpopularity, grow out of the fact
that like Burke, like Romilly, and like two of
nnrlfn nrinC tod Tnl.
attention, Mr.. Golden and Mr.. Sumner, he
has little or no sense of humor. There is no
sign of it either in his speeches .or writings.
The lack of this quality often prevents his see
ing the due proportion of things and events,
and his judging accurately of the appropriate
ness OF time and placeI for much of what he
says and does His intense earnestness of ma
ture drives out of his mind everything but the
great cause in hand; and he dwells upon it
with disregard of time and opportunity, and
with prolixity which iniure rather than ad-
vance what he has so much at heart.--C. III.

THE Constitutional amendments just
adopted by the people of Indiana repeal the
obsolete provision that 'sno negro or mulat-
to shall have the right of suffrage require
residence of 60 days in any township and
80 days in any ward as a qualification for
voting: provide for the registration
of voters; change the date of the State
election from October to November; provide
for scale of compensation for civil officers
in proportion to the service rendered, and
for a reorganization of the judicial system;
and flfally forbid the contraction of munici-
pal debts in time of peace in excess of per
cent of the value of taxable property The
second and third amendments will do much
to prevent those frauds by which the DEM
ocrats have been able to carry the State.
