THE OvERHANGING European wal

full of significant interest to this coun.
try. Let the outcome be what it may
the commercial interests of the United

The enormous wheat crop of this coun-
try is seeking market and no country
promises better market than Europe
While the Suez Canal remains open to

in that county who are without repre-
sentation and have no voice in making
the laws which oppress and govern
them. They have refused to call q
State Convention that faiT representa-
tion may be secured; that the State
may have district representation; that
county officers may be elected by the
people and that the State in general
may be placed upon a more progressive
plane i'll keeping with the progress OF
sister States. The Democrats are not
chargable with dulness of comprehen-
sion, as is shown in their shameful
manipulations of the assessment laws.
Disfranchisement is reduced to a sci
ence worthy of the inventors OF tissue
ballots and blindfolded ballot snatch
ers. Even admitting the honesty Vf the
Democracy in State financial manage
ment the scales Of justice must balance
against them aud the day of their reck-
oning is at hand. The people can no
longer be deceived and the Democracy
Of Delaware is at last brought face to

WEST POINT is to be troubled with
another colored cadet, Notwithstanding
the fate which attended others. This
new cadet, who is to run the gauntlet
Of having his ears slit or perhaps worse
at the hands Of the refined essence of
Southern chivalry, is named Lemuel
W. Livingston, and he is from the
Second Congressional District of Flori-
da, now represented by Colonel Bisbee
In Congress since he was awarded the
seat wrongfully appropriated by Mr..
Finley, a Democrat. Mr.. Finley had
already appointed a white cadet, but he
failed to pass creditable examination,
and being ousted from Congress he had
no opportunity to appoint another.
Col BisEee, his successor, then ap.
pointed time for competitive exam
lnation, that whoever passed with the
best record should have the appoint
nent. Quite number of young men
the lists, but Livingston was so
ar superior to the others that the three
Judges, all Democrats, awarded him
he certificate, and Col. Bisbee sent him
10 West Point.

Now LET Congress reconsider its
action on the naval appropriation bill
and appropriate enough money to fin
ish the monitors lying in our ship yard S
in an unfinished condition. 1t is Just
as necessary to have the ships of war
to defend our sea coast cities as it is to
spend so much money to put the rivers
and harbors in navigaLle condition.
After the late action of the British feet
before Alexandria which exposed the
utter helpleSsness of seaboard cities
against iron clads, Congress should
not have withheld the needed appro-
priation to finish the Monitors. If one
half the States in the Union had ship
yards and monitors to build the needed
appropriations would no doubt have
been made.

1t is to be hoped the new contractors

will give more practical orders to their

hot day, so heavily laden that the horse

driver was going on filling it up, saying
that he had orders from the Boss to

alton for the horse than if he was a

he knew it was too heavy but he must

THE DEMOCRATS of Indiana held
their State Convention yesterday and
went so far back as to condemn what
they call the electoral fraud of 1876;
put themselves upon a free trade plat
form; and accepted plank opposing
a prohibitory law left to vote of the
people. If their is any virtue left in
Bourbonism, the Indiana Democrats
are determined to profit by it. Besolu-
tions opposing education, endorsing
disfranchisement and manipulation of
assessments would have brought the
Indiana Democrats down to level
with Delaware Democrats.

The Weights and Measures.

1t is hoped that the Law Committee
will report this evening on Mr.. Bal
ley's ordinance, empowering the Clerk
OF the Market to regulate the weights
and measures used in the market, so
that he can call it up for third read
ing, and put it on its final passage,
without any further delay. There
is not market day passes but what
our citizens are swindled by short
weights and measures, and the sooner

THE ENTERPRIsING Democrats, who
gave William Stewart, nineteen years
old, a fraudulent tax receipt and in
duced him to vote at the late Mayors
election, should have been wide enough
awake to have taken 1t from him after
he had voted as had been the general
Democratic custom. When voter
like Stewart brings forward his tax
receipt upon which he voted, as proof
of his manhood and his moral right to
drink wh;skey, it makes unpleasant
experiences of party that makes ex-
elusive claim to political honesty. Some
Democrat needs training.
