who understands the rules of the House
-as not more than half dozen do
but they are perfectly at home in the
modus operandi of introducing legisla-
ton and carrying it through the House.
Randall has enemies in his own party
and there are men jealous of him.
Carlisle is respected by every man in
the House, and Cox is popular. All
three are watchful, not only of the gen.
eral interests committed to them. but of
the interests of their party. Carlisle is
one of the strongest men who have rep
resented the democratic party in the
House for years. He has the makings
of a great statesman, and perhaps "by
and large" is regarded as the most able
man on the democratic side Every one
knows Randall's qualifications, and no
one knows better than Sunset Cox that
his reputation as humorist and wit has
Swallowed much more sterling and bril-
liant qualities With three such lead
ers as these, and with the republican
vote one less than quorum, it will be
impossible for very much legislation Of
partisan nature to get on the statute
books.

was associated with the Civil War. He
was one of q. little group of young. brave,
adventurous cavalry officers who by
their energy and dash rendered that
arm of the service formidable. During
the first year of the rebellion our caval-
ry was deplorably inefficient Neither
men nor horses were accustomed to the
saddle. Our clumsy regiments of clerks
and farmer boys mounted on plough
horses were no match for the swift and
skillful riders of the South. But little
experience made good horsemen of our
soldiers and developed class of COM
manders with genius for rapid march
ing, quick strategy and sharp fighting.
SO that in the latter years of the strug-
gle the Northern cavalry was more then
a match for that Of the rebels. Among
these commanders none won brighter
laurels then Judson Fitzpatrick. Histo-
ry may have little to say about the New
Jersey politician who was twice Minis
ter to Chilli. but it will be sure to speak
of the brave officer whose squadrons won
brilliant victories along the Rappahan-
mock and on the slopes of the Blue
Ridge, and who commanded all the Cav
airy in Sherman's army Oh the march to

The presidents announcement of his
purpose that the star-route rascals shall
be pursued with the utmost rigor of the
law will give general satisfaction-that
is, of course, to honest men. But the
New York Times can't he'll wishing he
had made his message little longer by
putting in an explicit condemnation of
the extravagant and corrupt system
which enabled the rascals to do their
theiVing, and frank admission that the
good name of the country and of the ad-
ministration, and the prospects of the
republican party, are intimately con-
cerned in the success of the efforts now
making to bring the public plundererE
to justice. at would be a pity" re-
marks this leading republican news
paper, "if the star-route cases should
have no better result than to furnish tn,
democrats with great deal of effectiv
campaign literature" The observation
is one of point and pertinency.

CONGRESS.

Monday.-The first regular session
of the forty-seventh congress convened
at noon. In the senate large number
of bills were introduced, among them
one by Mr.. Sherman, providing for the
issuing of three per cent. bond to be
sold for legal tenders, the legal tenders
to be used in retiring the three and a
half per cents. The house was organic
ed by the election of J. Warren Keifer
of Ohio as speaker, Edward Mcpherson
of Pennsylvania as clerk, George W.
Hooker of Vermont as sergeant-at-arms,
W. P. Brownlow of Tennessee as door
keeper, Henry Sherwood of Michigan as
postmaster and Fred D. Power of Vir-
ginia as chaplain. Beyond the appoint
ment of a committee to inform the pres.
ident of the organization, no business
was transacted.
TueSday.-Six senators were ap
pointed upon the joint committee fol
the preparation of memorial upon The
death of President Garfield. Many bills
of private nature were introduced
The house was not in session.
Wednesday, In the senate larg,
number of bills was introduced Mr.
Morrill,, of Vermont, made a speed
upon the tariff; a bill was passed con
ferring the franking privilege upon Mrs
Garfield. The house was not in session

The New Orleans Times has the
idea: The old opposing sections should
be cut so that there would be no north
ern and no southern parties. This has
been done in Virginia it may be done
in Tennessee, North Carolina and posi-
bly, hereafter in Mississippi, South Car
DINA and Louisiana. Let these states
be divided like New York, Indiana and
Ohio, SO they shall not belong body and
soul to any party. but will vote upon
vital issues for the best men, and then
sectionalism will be truly broken up.
Georgia and Texas on the one side, and
Iowa, Minnesota and Michigan on the
other. might continue to roll up theiI
vast party majorities, but party tyranny
would then be broken down and mer
would vote on their judgment and con
sciences rather than at the dictation O
lot of party bosses. This would be
true realization of best results of tn,
American political system. and it is t,
be attained only by breaking down geo
graphical limits in all matters of publ
policy.

The Guiteau trial was continued dur
ing last week. Mr.. Scovile introduced
considerable testimony tending to show
that Guiteau and his family were sim
sane" but he was obliged to handle his
witnesses with great care, as few of them
were willing to testify they considered
the prisoner insane when he shot the
president. The prosecution afterwards
used several witnesses who had known
the Guiteau family and Guiteau himself
for years who testified that they never
knew one of them to be insane. Cult
eau in the meantime was saucy, ugly
and boisterous, while he frequently al
luded to his own insanity and remarked
that he should be in an asylum within a
few weeks. If he was abhorred before
the trial, his exhibition and acts during
the trial have tended to make him the
most detestable creature on earth. 1t il
thought his case is nearly ended, and, i
the evidence is correctly reported, the
jury, except it contain some "crank,
cannot fail to find verdict of guilty.

The enormous circulation attained by
the New York Tribune attests its re-
markable popularity. 1t stands to-day
in the very front rank of American
newspapers. This position has been
won, in the teeth of the sharpest news
paper rivalry, by its enterprise in
its news department, by able and brilli-
ant character of its editorials, and by
its unwavering devotion to Republican
principles. Its prospectus for 1882
and its great premium offers, will be
found another column.

The Los Angelo, Daily Times con-
tains an interview with James W. Sco-
vile of Chicago, cousin of Guiteau's
counsel, at present visiting in this city.
Mr.. Scoville gave an interesting account
of personal experience of many years
with the assassin, and described him as
cold-blooded, selfish and thoroughly dis
reputable, with no other aim in life than
to become notorious. He expresses him
self very strongly on the subject of Gui-
teau's insanity, saying he was perfectly
sane and bas always been SO. Mr.. Sco-
vile condemns his cousin. George Sco-
vile, and says he desires the vindica-
tion of the law in the speedy hanging
of the assassin.

COMMENTS ON THE
MESSAGE.

The message of President Arthur is
admirably written, calm and dignifed
in style and tone, and advises Congress,
as it is his constitutional duty to do, on
many important subjects with wisdom
and sound judgment which will win for
him the public confidence and for his
recommendations the attentive consider
alton of both houses.-N 7. Herald.
Everybody will admit the presidents
message to be a business-like paper.
That, however, is the faint praise which
people are accustomed to bestow upon
messages which are entirely pointless,
and as President Arthur's message is
by no means pointless, the stock phrase
fails to do justice to i'll 7. World.
The message is strongest on foreign
relations and finance but it is not
weak anywhere, and it will be general.
ly accepted by the country as judi
cious, moderate and in most respects
satisfactory document'-N. z. Tribune
The first message of President Arthur
is very careful and well-matured doc
ument. Its tone is more frank and di
rect than is customary in such papers
and its recommendations, extensive anC
varied as they are, show that the presi
dent has patiently reviewed the field o
labor so recently and so unexpected,
opened before him, and that he is no
inclined to shirk the constitutional duty
of aiding Congress by his suggestion
and advice.-N. 7. Times.
The message is well-written, bus
ness-like document, marked by the char
acterestics that belong to Gen. Arthu
himself. 1t is free from novelties an
surprises, but is full of facts and SUI
gestions. President Arthur must hay

indefatigable industry. to the study

THE MESSAGE.

The first message of President Arthur
to Congress is a weighty document. 1t
is not long but it is strong In details,
showing great comprehensiveness in
lucid and vigorous statement, and in
plainness and soundness of recommends
ton, it is difficult to see how it could |
be improved. 1t is a mastery State
paper, and coming from man new to
his Office and still within the shadow of |
a great calamity, it is plain that none
other than a man of large ability and
superior judgment could have prepared
it. 1t is another and striking proof
that President Arthur is meeting the
high expectations of those who know
| him best.
The first important recommendation
of the message relates to the silver dol
lar, of which seventy millions are piled
up in the treasury vaults and uncalled
| for. The President recommends that
the arbitrary coinage of two millions a
month be stopped. Of kindred charac-
ter is the recommendation that the sill
yer certificate be eliminated from the
currency, and in this recommendation
the President shows the radical sound
ness of his financial views. The Presi-
dent sensibly advises no meddling with
tho 1-2 per cent bonds, unless they
can be refunded at much lower rate of
interest. This indicates that Mr.. Ran
dall's three per cent bond is not wanted,
in the opinion of the President.
The message, in view of the large
surplus revenues of the Government un-
hesitatingly commends reduction in
the internal revenue, restricting that
branch of the government income to to-
bacco and spirits, and the manufacture
ers' and dealers license. The President
weuld wipe out at once the tax on
matches, proprietary articles, checks
and drafts. The message also favors a
revision of the tariff laws, but wisely
suggests that changes should be made
with caution. If this Congress has not
time to attend to the subject, the Presi-
sion, such as is already proposed by
measures before Congress.
The recommendation of the Postmas'
ter-General that the fees for money or.
ders not exceeding SIS be reduced from
ten to FIVE cents is tacitly approved
= and also the suggestion that the maxi
L mum of the order be increased from $50
to 500. If doubt existed anywhere
that the President means to follow VI
= the star-route frauds, it is removed by
the pointed declarations Of the message
= that the President has "enjoined upo1
" the officials who are charged with the
. conduct of the cases Oh the part of tn
> government, and upon the eminent coun
- sci who, before my accession to tn
= presidency, were called to their assist
" ance, the duty of prosecuting with tn
:. utmost rigor of the law all persons VIII
- may be found chargeable wit fraud
lie upon the postal service"
is Many other topics are forcibly AM
ne LUMINOSITY discussed by the message
J. Altogether it is an admirable, business
- like and statesman-like paper, sure
" rank among the best.-Erchange.
