CApITOLIAN, relating to the Clinton
and Liberty Railroad, our neighbor
the Southern Watchman, says: awe
are greatly pleased to see this impor-
tant enterprise again agitated, and
sincerely hope the movement may
this time be successful. The proprie-

is every prospect that this long
hoped-for road will soon be built

THE CHICKEN PIE.

All roads from Democracy lead to
the Republican ranks, is an assertion
that is being verified at this moment
in this city, if we are correctly in
formed. "From q little bird" we have
heard that "the boys who are hungry
are getting up their petitions to the
address of Grandfather Garfield, set
ting forth as however and insomuch
as they are competent, reliable and
willing to fight, bleed and almost die
for their country in the Baton Rouge
post-office, the applicants pray that
they be duly installed in that COM
Portable berth for the next four years.
Outside of the regular veteran Re-
pnblicans, it is said that some hide
pendents with q "smile child-like and
bland" are quietly fixing up their lit
tie documents. To solidify the phal-
anx of the opponents of the Demo-
cratic party, It's also said, that a
few Greenbackers are marching unto
the deadly breach, looking for that
luscious bit of chicken pie.
Ifanything could console US Of the
defeat of Hancock it would be this
''gettin up stairs Mr.. Brown" that is
taking place among the unselfish pa
triots who We're SO eager to "beat the
ring' in the last campaign.
Success to all of you in your noble
efforts to do all the good you can to
your parishioners dearly beloved fell

AT Madison, Florida, whilea deputy
United States Marshal, who had gone
there to arrest certain citizens, was
standing in the courthouse surrounded
by a party Of negroes, F. P. Patterson,
a nglawyerof that place, came up,
when Charles Savage, a negro, caught
Patterson around the neck, and,
drawing pistol, killed Patterson.
The act created considerable excite
ment, in the midst Of which Savage
was hurried to Jail. Gov. Bloxhem
was at once telegraphed, and imme-
diately the Governors Guards and
Jefferson Rifles, from Tallahassee,
were ordered to guard the Jail. 1t is

THE MILLS OF THE GODS.

Slowly indeed do the mills of the
Gods grind, when the public Interest
is in the scale.
For more than year has the large
sum of interest which was RENTED
by the Constitutional Convention
lain dormant in the State Treasury
while State warrants issued for the
support ofpublic institution and the
payment of the just claims Of individ-
As, have gone into the hands of the
brokers of Carondelet street, at dis
count of from thirty to forty cents on
the dollar.
While the faith Of the State was
thus being broken and the many were
subjected to heavy losses, the courts
have sung lullabys over the manda-
mus and injunctions sued for against
the large amounts set aside by the
Convention for the support OF the gov
eminent.
TO this day that august body, the
Supreme Court, has not found time
to take action in q matter which af-
fects SO vitality the public welfare.
Itdoes seem to us that there is some
thing wrong in judicial system that
permits such delays to be imposed in
suits which ought to obtain immediate
consideration.
We do not like to attack the Su-
preme Court of the State; but must
say, that we expected better at the
hands Of the distinguished and learned
gentlemen, whom Gov. Wilt has Sc
lected to give the example of patriot
ism and devotion to the public veal,
to the inferior courts.
Charitable Institutions, public works
legitimate demands of individuals, are
in sufferance while our Supreme Trib-
nnal spends its time in considering
every day litigation.
Can our Justices reasonably expect
that the people of the State will say
to them "Well done thou good and
faithful servants"
To whom shall the people turn for
relief if our highest Tribunal sets SO
damaging an example Of procrastina-
ton.

PLANS OF POLYGAMY.

Some idea of the ayOwed designs of the
Mormon government may be formed from
the following public statements recently
made by their bishop, Lunt:
"Our church has been organized only
fifty years, and yet behold its wealth and
powerl This is our year of jubilee We
look forward with perfect confidence to
the day when we will hold the reins of the
United States government. That is our
present temporal aim; after that we expect
to control this continent. We do not care
for the territorial officials sent out to
govern us. They are nobodies here.
We do not recognize them. Nor do we
fear any practical interference by Congress.
To-day we hold the balance of political
power in Idaho; we rule in Utah absolute
ly, and in q very short time we will hold the
balance of power in Arizona and Wyom-
ing. A few months ago President Snow,
of ST. George, set out with band Of
priests for an extensive tour through
Colorado, New Mexico, Wyoming, Mon
tana, Idaho and Arizona to proselyte. We
also expect to send missionaries to some
parts of Nevada. and we design to plant
colonies in Washington Territory. In the
past six months We have sent more
than 1900 of our people down through
the Sewer valley to settle in Arizona,
and the movement still progresses. All
this will help to build up for us a politi-
cal power that the demagogues will be
forced to recognize. Our vote is solid,
and will always remain SO. 1t will be
thrown where the most good will be ac-
complished for the church. Then, in some
great political crisis, the two great politi
cal parties will bid for our support. Utah

SENATE.
TIE REPUBLICANS cRAwF1sHrNG

WASHINGTON, April Ex-senator Dawes
chairman of the Republican caucus COM
mittee. had a conference with the Presi-
dent to-day. The President is emphatic
in urging the consideration of executive
business and especially the rapid confrma-
tions of nomination. A number of the
pending nominations are to fill
vacancies the, existence of which
somewhat embarrasses the work of
the departments. Assoon as the senate re-
sumes executive ffsessions, the president
has a number of nominations to make
some of which he has been requested to do
by the parties selected for the offices to
hold back while the deadlock continues as
the gentlemen do not like to have their
names hung up in the senate. There is no
doubt but that the committee will arrange
for the executive session next Tuesday to
consider the Chinese treaties. This will take
two or three days and meantime the
committee viii arrange for action upon the
nominations. The prevailing sentiment
among the Republicans seems to be in
favor of letting Rohertsons nomination
go over until next winter but the caucus
committee do not feel authorized to single
out this case as the courtesey of the senate
demands that it be left entirely to the New
York senators.

There was a clean give-away on poor
Hoar in the Senate, the other day. The
Springfield Republican tells the story: "In
Burnside's encounter with Senator Brown,
Messrs. Dawes and Hoar, of course, could
not be forced into expressing an opinion
about the politics of the Boston Herald
Mr.. Hoar gruffiy said that the filling out OF
debate by newspaper extracts was con
tempible But the Rhode Island Senator
fioundered into a brilliant revenge. He was
slyly armed and retorted on Brown with
an eXtaact from the Louisville Courier
Journal, waving it at the Georgia Senator
and saying that it had been handed him by
Senator Hoar-a bit of fresh and delightful
frankness which the latter gentleman by no
means relished." It's been a hard season
on the Massachusetts Senators. They
haven't shone quite as brilliantly as they
hoped

EFFECTS OF SWAMP LIFE.

DETROIT, April 80 : A family named
Weaver, eight in number, living near Ger
eco on an island in large marsh, are all
down with malignant scarlet fever. They
were found destitute, without covering and
hungry, The atmosphere was miasmatic,
and they were drinking surface water which
was unfit for even beasts. A physician
found one child dying, and the body after
death turned black at once. Three children
died in "a hours. The type was the most
malignant ever met
