Trip circus advertising agent-if

According to the New York Sun, the
following verse, written by a colored
gentleman of st. Louis, to a colored
lady, caused the death of it's author at
the hands of colored rival:
When first saw my Susie dear
Twas on summer eve.
And ever since her face saw
I've reason to believe
That she has robbed me of my heart;
And now that I am free
I will be true to Susie dear
If she will be true to me.

Observation-Disclosures that in

Cnlifornia-Notwith that In
this State the Republicans show about
ten votes to every seven for the Demo-
Gratis, it should not be forgotten that
the former fall far short Of q majority,
the Workingmen pOlled a vote nearly
equal to that for the Democrats, and
being more pronounced in their antag-
onism to the Republicans than they are
to the Democrats, combination may
be brought about which will overthrow
the former In that State. California
is also rapidly filling up with immi-
grants from other States, and thOus-
ands will be entitled to vote for Presi-
dent next fall who could not vote last
September.
Colorado has generally gone Repub-
lican, but q six months residence enti-
ties a man to vote. Therefore, the
mining excitement in that State, which
has drawn thousands from other States
and from the surrounding Terrific
ries, renders it exceedingly doubt
full, for the voters will have doubled
or quadrupled before the next cleo
ton.
Connecticut gave the Republicans
only a meagre plurality, and the
Greenbackers hold the balance of pow
er.
Indiana is more nearly certain for
the Democratic than any Northern
State; indeed, nothing but a combine
ton Of all opposing elements will de-
feat them.
Nevada, although always going Re-
publican for President, has twice elect
ed q Democratic Governor and Con-
gresham, and at every every State
election the Democrats have chosen a

gratory nature of the population further
tends to render the land of silver bricks
doubtful. :,
New Jersey presents a Democratic
front by only meagre plurality, but
she has given q Democratic vote for
President at.each election since 1852, ex-
cept I'm 1860 and 1872.
NeW York was SO nearly divided
equally between the two parties in1879
that its votes will be o0ntended for
with desperation by both parties until
the great struggle is finally ended, un-
less the Legislature changes the mode
Of choosing electors.
Ohio gave the Republicans 30 small
. majority that the most hopeful of that
party will scarcely claim the Buckeye
State as certain.
Oregon gave the Democrats re-
Specialize plurality over the Rep0DIl-
cans in 1873, with almost majority
over all, the Greenbackers holding the
balance of power.
In these nine States the Democrats
have pluralities in three, the Republi-
cans maj0rities In three and pluralities
In three others. To all appearances
the two great parties of the country
were never 90 nearly divided equally
on the heel Of Presidential election
as now. and, therefore, the campaign
bids fair to be more holly contested
than during any preceding struggle for
years.
Just what plan q campaign may be
determined upon cannot now be ns0re
than surmised. Three States, each Of
which ID an important factor in the ap-
preaching contest, hold elections before

Brewer 4 Wilkinson, and, very shortly
afterward, Messrs. Shcmidt 4 Ziegler
had occasion to apply to the agency Of
r. g. Dun 4 Co. for information ~ to
the concern. The agency represented
Brewer & Wilkinson AZ q firm in good
standing, with assets in real estate ag-
gregating $135 900 and cash capital OF
$25, 900 in addition. It is further stat
ed that Brewer 4 Wilkinson enjoyed a
good credit and high reputation. On
the strength of these representations,
Messrs. Schmidt & Ziegler sold to
Brewer & Wilkinson on the usual
time of sixty days, to the extent Of
$2,S27.82. About that time Brewer &
Wilkinson absconded, swindling num-
Der of merchants of New Orleans, and
it was subsequently shown that they
were utterly worthless and had
been all the time. Upon these
facts Messrs. Schmidt and Ziegler base
their suit against the mercantile agen-
cy of r. G.. Dun & Co., alleging that
they were induced to give credit upon
the strength of the representations
made by r. g. Dun & Co.-which rep
turned out to be wholly
false and groundless. The question TO-,
be determined by the courts is this:
Is an agency to which is paid a certain
sum yearly for correct information as
to the standing of business firms with
in certain territorial limits, bound toll
furnish such correct information? And
in case of failure so to do, will it be
held liable to damages, as in the case
Of avoidance of contract by firms in
ordinary business? If a mercantile
agency is not bound by law to do what
It promises to do for its subscribers, but
g left to its own discretion as to what |
Information it shall impart its trusting |
why then we'd like to be "sole
partner" in one: as Bonanza it would |
'utrank any mine ever opened west of
he Mississippi.

Can Legislators Choose Electors.

The Rochester IN. W Udion makes
the point that the proposition to change
the manner of choosing electors in New
York is clearly contrary to the Consti-
tuition of the United States. One of the
recent amendments says that "when
the right to vote at any election for the
choice of electors for President or Vice
President of the United States is
denied to any male inhabitants of such
State, being twenty-one years of age
and citizens of the United States. or in
any manner abridged, except for par
ticipation in rebellion or other crime,
the basis of representation therein
shall be reduced in the proportion
which the number of such male citi-
zens shall bear to the whole number of
male citizens twenty-one years of age
in such State"
The Union contends, with some force,
that the selection of electors by the
Legislature would deny the voters in
New York the right to vote for such
electors, and the proposition to elect
them by Congressional districts would
equally violate the provisions of the
Constitution above quoted, because a
voter now has the right to vote for
thirly-five electors, and uuder the dis
trict system he would be permitted to
vote for three only-two for the State
at large and one for the Congressional
district in which he lived. 1t is evil
dent that this would be q material
abridgment of the voters present priv
ilege, and by a strict construction OF
the Constitution would reduce the vote
of New York in the electoral college
from thirty-five to three. The fact
that a Democratic Congress would
have to pass upon these and other
points may prevent the Republicans
of New York from communicating the
scheme they now nave in hand, to
steal half the electoral votes of the
State. There is no doubt Of their de-
sire to do SO.

Bennett of Jersey city, indicted for the
murder of Mrs. Smiths husband, was
concluded last Thursday-the defense
submitting it's side of the case without
testimony or argument. The action of
the jury justified the..confidence of the
defense, for it gave a verdict of "not
guilty." after short deliberation.

damages can be obtained against any
railroad corporation for the killing of a

the former may be. Such is the limita-

powerful influence the railroad corpo-

ton: from SIS to $50. So GREATS the de-
mand for iron that the furnaces are un-
able to supply it, and refuse to make
contracts ahead at even $40 a ton. The
prices now paid create demand for
foreign iron, and the importations dur
ing the present year will be very great.
