The government. says the Philadel-
phia Times, has now paid some $25, 900
to satisfy itself that the celOred cadet,
Whitaker, cropped his own ears. If he
had been a white cadet, he would have
been dismissed upon the first finding
but Presidential election was on hand,
the colored troops were needed to bat
tie for the party, and Whitaker had to
have another trial with great ostenta-
ton. Now there are no political neces
sites in the case and Whitaker will be
sent adrift, as he deserved long ago.

There has been a gradual, but steady
decline for several weeks of the New
York banks reserve. Whether it is
caused by Western demand for funds
to be used in grain corners" or by arti-
fetal means in New York, is not known.
Its natural result is seen in stringency
of the money market, which is having a
disagreeable effect upon small stock spec
ulators and the lambs. Should the Presi-
dents death occur before this stringency
has run its course, very many ''margins"
will vanish.

Democrats IN Congress have not
vet resumed The struggle on the
count resolution aimee the
recess. This is, of course,
n grave mistake, but ~ b,unirrinE
has been the rule all through the
present session it is not to Ia won
dered that the emocratic mem ncrs
eoutinue to permit their political
adversaties to prevent the passage
Of this measure. Early in the see
ond session OF Congress thu Bai'I~
more Gazette. in common with oth>
er Democratic journals Throughout
the country, urged repeatedly The
passage OF resolution providing
for the counting CT the electoral
vote. and the Senate finally adopts
ell the Morgan resolution, which is
now pending in the House, and
which the Republican minority
have declared their purpose of de-
feating by fair means OF foul. In
order to strengthen their case some
of the Radical members have had
themselves interviewed, and declar-
ed that they saw in the resolution
a revolutionary measure to prevent
the seating OF Gen. Garfield. They
knew when they gave expression to
such exIravaguit utterances that
they were not only absolutely false,
but they were as absurd as they
were untrue. and yet, judging from
the hesiiancy with which the Dem =
ocrAts approach the subj ect, II
wuu'd appear that they attach
some Importance to these idle and
sensational statements. The Sen
ate, as we have said, has already
approved the resolution, and 1t Is
evident that If it could be gotten
before the House, with all the Dem
ocratic members in their seats and
discharging the duties for which
they are paid by the people, j,
would be also adopted by that
body. Will this be donel Or will
the Democrats continue 10 allow
themselves 10 be INSTRUCTED III the
passage of a measure that has had
the strongest approval not only OF
the Senate but of the Democrats in
land out of the House OF RepIesen-
tatives The Republicans have
declared their intention of filibus-
lterine TO the end to defeat this bill,
and with it, of course, all other Leg
islation needed by the country; but
their threat would prove an idle
one if tie Democrats would only
determine to ignore all other bust
ness, unite earnestly on this ones
ltion and pass it without delay, as
their majority enables them to do
readily if they are in earnest. Ii
they are not, let them bring the
natter up and reject 1t. The peo>
Pile are becoming disguised With
the hesitating. halting policy pur-
sued by ihe Democrats in dealing
with this question, and demand
that the issue bs met squarely and
without further triiiing OF loss o.
time. 1t will not be long, Judging
from the way things now look, be
fore the Republicans will be ell
trenched IN power, and our Demo
cratic friends will then see how
quickly they will arrange matters
as they did in the pasi-so as to en-
able them to TO their own counting
exactly in their own way. They
counted in President once, and
there is no reason whatever to be>
lieye that they will not attempt the
same little game four years hence
if they should find it necessary.

llicans are, and the Democrats
