We call attention to the advertisement

We call attention to the advertisement of Sawyer's Concentrated Crystal Blue for laun- dry purposes. It is claimed that every fami- ly in the United States must eventually use it. In this concentrated granulated form it is more than double strength, neat and clean to handle and costs only about one-third as much as ordinary liquid blue.

Mr.. RAISEY the colored ext Congress-
man from South Carolina, does not APP
pear to have Jared sumptuOusly at the
hands OF his Republican brethren, in
the feast offat things set out at the or
ganiZation Of the House Of Representa-
tives. Mr.. RAINEY was q member of
the Committee on Enrolled Bills of a
former House and upon certain night
about the close of the session distin-
gutshed himself greatly by sticking to
his post, when his fellow committeeman
had let down under the labor and
yielded 10 the fatigues Incident to an all
night session. He continued to stand up
serenely when al but him had fed, y
and great was his praise in consequence.
Whenthe Republicans werein q minority
they nominated him for clerk with over
whelming unanimity. So long as II was
merely q matter of compliment and
gtlsh, they were ready to do the mag
unanimous by Brother Rainey. But when
the time fer substantial proofs of affac-
ton came around, and q nomination
meant an election, the color of the can
nldate became, as it were, a stumbling
block and q rock Of oFense, and the
south Carolina statesman was sat upon
as uneeremOniously as if this were q
Government ofthe white people, by the
white people, for the benefit Of the
white people exclusively. Brother Raj
ney Is not by any means the first, nor
viii he be the last, of his people to feel
that the affection Ofthe Republican par
ty for the eolored race grows largely
out Of its sense of the need of the color
ed vote; and he wiz probably bear back
to his retirement the burden Of an unut-
tered preference for q little less compli-
ment when his party couldn't help him
and q little more soup when i. could.

THE Baltimore, Cincinnati and West
ern railroad seems to be the coming en-
terprise for the development of the Elk
river country. Its route is from Cincin-
natl to Baltimore by way of the Ohio,
Kanawha, Elk and Potomac rivers. 1t
starts out with an $lS,0OO, 900 mortgage,
and other favorable symptoms 1t the
mOrtgage), is progressing from West to
East, as fast Is the recording angels at
the various Court Houses can enter it
upon their books of doom. 1t is under
stood that arrangements have been per-
feeted through the Mercantile Trust
Company, for the negotiation Of the
bonds, and that active operations will
be commenced early in the spring.
Major n. II. CAMPBELL, formerly
connected with the Northern and South
EN- West Virginia road, has located the
line in this State and Virginia. The
Baltimore, Cincinnati and Western
railroad is not to be COMPOUNDED, by the
way, with the Baltimore, Cincinnati
and Western Central, u corporation pro-
posing to build a road over substantially
the same route. The latter enterprise
is represented by Mr.. ERTZ, who has
recently been enjoined in the New York
courts, and prohibited from putting his
company before the public rs the success
sOr of the Baltimore, Cincinnati and
Western, and from using a. his own the
maps, reports and statistics of Major
CAMPBEIL'S survey.

POSITION BUILDING.

Now that the State Fair Association
has elected its officers and new Board of
Directors for the ensuing year, and will
begin the work of planning for the next
seasons exhibition, We renew our Sug-
gestiOn regarding the erection of their
main exposition building on this side of
the river.
This, we submit, is a proposition that
materially concerns both the future in
tereSts and success of the Fair AsSOcia-
ton and the city, and as much the one
rs the other.
1t is not necessary to repeat the
reasons and arguments in support of
this project. There is every thing to be
said in its favor, and We are at loss to
find any substantial reason against it.
Because it il an admitted fact that either
n new exposition hall must be built or
the present buildings be enlarged. One
seasons experience demonstrated this.
Now, therefore, the one question to be
determined is, whether this side the
river or the Fair grounds will be the
most advantageous site for it.
The Fair ground is already crowded
and cramped for room. IL the buildings
now there are extended, there must be
more ground purchased. IL will cost no
more to build ON this side than the other.
Perhaps it will cost less. The city might
be induced TO contribute n site for the
building if located on this side.
As to the matter of patronage and
profit between the two sites, there can be
no question at all. An exposition build
ing in the heart of the city would add,
We venture to say, SO per cent. to the
annual receipts of the FAIR, and 50 per
cent. to the general interest in the eX-
hibitions. Everybody would go to one
or the other, while hundreds of people
cannot go to both and hundreds of eX-
hibitors will not incur the expense, risk
and inconvenience of carting their wares
to the other side of the river.
Let the new Board of Directors dis
cuss this proposition, and we feel sure
that the more they look at 1t the better
/ they will like IL

THE PREsIpENTIAL SUCCESSION.

SENATORS BECK and GARLAND are
coming forward as the champions of
measures for strengthening the constitu-
tional provisions for the Presidential
succession in case of the death or inabil-
ity OF the President.
In addition to the bill offered by Sem
ator BECK, the other day, to which we
have referred heretofore, Senator GAR
LAND proposes bill for extending the
right of succession TO the Secretary of
State, the Secretary of The Treasury and
the Secretary of War, in the order
named.
We see no reason why, If succession
Is TO be deyolyed upon the members of
the Cabinet, 1t should not take in the
whole Cabinet.
There is no question but that the right
of succession should be extended. The
present provision which makes the
President OF the Senate, or, in case OF
vacancy, the Speaker, the successor, Is
open to the objection that these, offices
may be vacant, as was the case when
GARFIELD died. There is every two
years O vacancy in the Speakership and
there may be in the presidency Of the
Senate.
The members ofthe Cabinet must, in
fact, transact the business ofthe Exec
utiye Office during q vacancy in that
Office, and are probably as wen qualified
to become successors to the President as
any other class ofofficers. Beside there
is no probability of a vacancy occur
ring in all the departments
An example is found in the crisis of
1866. SEWARD, the Secretary of State,
was stricken down with the President
STANTON was Secretary of War, and
until JOHNSON could be sworn in was
the virtual President. Mr.. BLAINE was
the virtual President from the striking
of GARFIELD, July I'd, until his death
in September. In fact the head of the
Cabinet has, heretofore, in some sort,
taken the responsibility in case of the
Presidents removal
