The "Post" and the Constitution.

Tho Post" and the Constitution.
Thehappy thought ofSecretary Window,
that in the absence of refunding legislation
he would give creditors ofthe Government
the privilege of being compelled either to
receive cash for bonds bearing high in
terest, or TO indorse on their own bonds
a reduction of the rate of interest, has
always given great pain to the opposition
newspapers, which had made themselves
ready to show some awful results from
the veto of the refunding bill of the last
session. The Post yesterday morning
lugubriously returned to the subject for
the first time in long while, and said,
concerning the Window plan:
The Constitution separated by what was sup
posed to be an impossible gulf the legislative and
executive hinotions and this great stroke in
finance has been made in violation OF this prin-
ciplc of separation. Nor should pass bv because
zoe hare SAVED TEN MILLIONS YEAR IN ISTRRRsT,
for that would be sanctioning Illegal action.
This is good. It declares that bond
holder must not be allowed to reduce the
rate of interest on the bond he holds
against the Government. When payday
tViiiVo anu llC touDOh w bCp
his interest the Secretary must pay him
the original high rate, although he vol
UNFAIRLY agreed that if the bond were al
lowed to run instead of being redeemed
he would take off q certain portion of
the interest. The law had provided that
while his bond was not due, still, if the
Government desired to, it could redeem
it-a certain time having elapsed since it
was issued. The Congress had failed to
authorize a loan mt q low rate
to enable the Secretary Of the Treas
urp to pay off the high rate
bonds. He had some money and he ad-
vertised to pay it out as far as it would
go in redemption of these bonds. But,
said the holders, they are not due.
"Yes," said the Secretary, in sub
stance; "but our agreement with you
is that we can pay them now
if we choose. / am not Obliged
to pay them. 1 disobey no law by letting
them run at the high interest. But as
have money on hand shall pay you: I'm
less you voluntarily reduce the. Interest
in consideration of being allowed tc
let your investment run" The bond
holder saw that he must accept the money
and reinEest it, or reduce his interest tC
the rate at which he could reinvest. Thii
wa5' done, And this is all wrong, o
course. 1t is perfectly awful to violate the
Constitution that way, and disarm thu
Democracy, who wanted to show that We
were paying an unnecessarily high rat
of interest on large amount of the pub
lie debt. If our public officials are goini
to allow creditors to abate their claim
that way we shall be shipwrecked. Th
Post would have the bondholder pai
more interest than he wants. Its edito
may be bloated bondholder himself.

WE were much gratiiied at the words
of sympathy sent to the Irish mass meet
ing in Chicago by General Logan. Ours is
aparty of freedom and we do not indorse
any excesses when we show our hearts
desire for the deliverance of all oppressed
people. The Republican cause would be
stronger if the deep sympathy of its
masses for Irish distress could oftcner
find expression through our leaders.

Certainpart ofAlsace are overrun with
field mice, which prove very destructive to crops.
During single week In September no fewer than
$1,000 OF them were killed, and for a three weeks
campaign against them in the month the returns
are $4,000. 1t is estimated that II the weight OF
such animals were placed at twenty grams their
total weight would be nearly three tons,

THE Michigan sufferers are not so
much in need of black cambria which
has been used to decorate buildings in
token of mourning as they are of money
with which to buy food and repair the
wrecks of their houses.

In Love.

One of the three boys who recently
robbed the railroad train In Arkansas says that
they were all in love and wanted to get money
enough TO marry upon. These misguided crea-
lures had no chance at all. If they were cap
tured the penitentlary awaited them, and If they
escaped they were to be married.

A SINGULAR accident occurred at Texarkana

empty whisky barrel, which he intended to cut In
two and make washtubs. Reaching homo, one OF

Our neighbor, the Post, has a meta
phorical, allegorical, or parabolical editor
who sees, or thinks he sees, the Republic
can ship in New York in great peril from
the dissensions on board. He fancies
that the mutations in party management
must have like effect upon the morale
of the party with that which on ship
board attends successful mutiny, followed
by counter mutiny against the mutt
neers. But in all this he is mistaken. Be-
ing himself on the pirate ship Democ-
racy, he is unable to see thatall is well on
the Republican ship, all hands are on
deck, and that it is the ship he is on, the
capture of which is now the objective
point of all on board.

Mr.. ScovILLE, brother-in-law and coun-
sci for Guiteau, was complimented in
yesterdays REPUBLICAN, for the tact and
good sense he had up to that time dis
played in his conduct of the case. 1t
was rather comical to read in the Post of
the same morning an interview with Mr..
scoville, in which it appears that he is
contemplating the idea of making him
self useful to people not in the case by
getting Guiteau to accuse such persons as
may be designated of having excited
him by differing with the President con-
cerning an appointments kind of a
Titus Oates arrangement. A scheme
of that sort ought to pay Mr.. Scovillc
very we'll if he is ready for it.

the Arst to be corraled into maGrimony.
That the little boys prefer boys to girls.
That they soon change, never to 60 back to
their early love,
That the little girls love the girls best.
That they don't get over their preference as
soon as the boys do-some Of them never.
That women love the men because they love
every thing they have to take care Of
That men love women because they can't help
II.
That the wife loves her husband 30 we'll that
she has no thought for other men.
That the husband 80 loves his wife that he
loves all women for her sake.
That the married man Is apt TO think himself
all killing among the fair sex simply because he
has found one woman fool enough TO marry him
That homely husbands are the best. They
mover forget the compliment paid them by their
wives in accepting them.
That homelY wives are the truest. They know
how to make the most Of what they have.
That the man who mRIrlea late In life does
