crosses; was appointed by President Polk
Attorney General of the United States;
was envoy extraordinary to Mexico in
1889; and was selected by President
Buchanan in 1853 to be associate Justice
of the United States Supreme Court, In
1860 he published two volumes of United
States Circuit Court Reports. His most
marked prominence in the public view
was his presidency of the famous Electoral
Commission which made Hayes President
de facto. He voted with the minority sew
en- every time. AS jurist and as a
strict constructionist of the constitution
he was held in high respect by his collea-
CUES and by the entire bar of the Supreme
Court During several years past his men
tai power were very feeble, and he has
therefore taken ne part in the hearing or
deciding cases pending in the Supreme
Court. In fact, to such extremity had his
mental iucapacity reached that he was
incapable of offering his resignation or OF
asking to be retired from judicial duties

ADDRESS OF THE MINORITY OF THE
LEGISLATURE TO THE PEOPLE.

In the address to the public issued by
the joint caucus committee, the democratic
members of the New York Legislature ar
raign the action to the majority in keep
ing the body in session for nearly two
hundred days in order to fight cut quar-
rel between two factions over the party
patronage. The collector of the port of
New York was removed in order to give
the appointing power an opportunity to
reward "those who had been personally
sucessfull in securing presidential nomina
ton, and to punish those who had resisted
boiling member, and the members OF
the republican convention claiming the
right of third Term of executive service
for previous President" Mr.. Conkling
is designated as the chief author of the
trouble which "has cost the State not only
a large amount of money. but, what is
more valuable. its honor, dignity and self
respect" The Senator chosen to succeed
Mr. Plat is described rs "a man named
Warner Miller, member of the present
House of Representatives, where he was
only conspicuous and notorious as the
direct and personal beneficiary of the
worst monepolies in the country, and
where he has supported that monopoly by
his voice and influence, and with the
threat that other public interests should
suffer if his special interest in wood pulp
and the manufacture Of paper were not
protected" The address denounces the
law passed by the Legislature providing
for special cleo ion to fill the congres-
sional vacancies occas;oned by the cleo
ticn of Messrs Warner and Miller TO the
Senate as Without precedent and with
out necessity, and moreover uncalled for,
and an enormous expenditure to the peo-
pie of the dis riots and the State, besides
the expenditure for federal marshals and
great incnnveh ence TO the people by the
special re gistry ofvoters and 10y the assemb
ling of The people at unusual times and

at Albany revolves itself inc the three
most discreditable conclusions: First, a
mistrust Of the people of the State on the
part of tie republican majority in the re-
publican Legislature; second, quarrel
ever the spells of office in two or three
republican factions. with practical con-
tempt for every principle belonging to
what is known and recognized ascivil
service reform third, the abuse of power
from its long use and misuse until two Of
the least capable persons have been drawn
from the popular branch of the Congress
of the United States" Referring to the
attempted ssassinat:on OF The President,
the address says: This sad and terrible
crime came not alone through the person
al madness of single man, but from the
personal fanaticism which was, and is, the
fruit of greed for public Office, aud of
false and dangerous poll ical education.
Now, if ever, is the time to teach all men
that public office is the property of the
people, and that places of official trust
can only be rightiully distributed TO men
of noble purposes, ofpure lives, ofwise ex-
perience, and of unqualified fitness for the
work to be performed F."
