IT is DIFFICULT to. guess what meri'
torious public object the correspondent of
the Western Associated Press expects to
subserve by pleading in his dispatches jus
tifcation for the assailants.of Mr.. Barton.
The only possible efiect-of such efforts is to
draw public attention to the faults. of man
who has already. .expiated them with his
life, and that, .to1, under circumstances
that make the retribution doubly terrible.
Poor Soteldo was indeed unfortunate in his
friendships and his alliances. The brother
whom he took with him as an assistant
killed him, and then, as if that were not
enough, his superscryiceable friends among
the correspondents insist on keeping up a
rost-mortem CONTROVERSY, in which even
defense suggests discredit.

REPRESENTATIVE HoUK, Of TENNEs-
sEE ON Friday last, introduced resolution
to correct the unjust discrimination exist
ing in the matter of salaries paid the House
employees as compared with those paid
similar employees of the Senate. This reso-
luton was referred to the Committee on
Appropriations, who, it is understood, are
unanimously in favor of its passage. This
is only a matter of simple justice, and as
the Senate has steadily and justly refused
TO allow the salaries of its employees to be
reduced, 1t is no more than right that sala-
ries Of the House employees should be in
creased TO the same standard adopted by the
Senate. The duties of the House employees
are more arduous of the two, and there is
no good reason nwhy they should not, at
least, receive the same pay The Commit
tee on Appropriations, it is understood, will
early report the needed reform, and when
reported tits to be hoped it will speedily be
come law. ,.'s''tt'7tttsft A-

THE CARD of Senator Sherman pub
lished in the Capital of Sunday has at
tracted unusual attention, for the reason
that, though he has for many years met
more than. his share Of abuse and vilifca-
tion, the Senator has never before deemed
it necessary to fake personal notice of a
libel. We are informed that he would have
observed his customary rule of contemptu-
Gus silence in this case had the reflection
embodied in the libellous dispatch been
limited to himself. But as it contained a
reference to Mrs. Sherman, whose. name
has never before during all the Senator's
stormy public life been lugged into print in
any manner, her husband was no longer
able to suppress. his resentment. 1t is
probable that Senator Sherman will take
still more practical steps to bring his ma
lignant enemies to account.

WE WOULD respectfully call the atten-
tion of our distinguished friend, the able
editor of eur esteemed contemporary, the
Republican, to the apparently forgotten fact
that our other distinguished friend, the
able editor of our other esteemed contempo-
rary, the Post, sonle days ago addressed to
him courteous inquiry, frank reply to
which might have suggested, if it did not
disclose certain reasons thus far occult
that led the existing regime in the State
Department to modify the action, if not
to reverse the policy of the late regime
and that this courteous inquiry stands to
date unanswered:
We refer to the inquiry as to when how
and by whom the attention Of the Presi-
dent was first called to the alleged fact,
hitherto apparently unsnspected by him,
that Mr.. Trescots final instructions from
Mr. Blaine varied materially FROM the form
originally submitted by Mr.. Blaine to the
President; and approved by him.
We are. .credibly Informed that frank
answer to.,tbis courteous inquiry would
form the beginning Of a new chapter Of
diplomatic history, fraught with more than
ordinary interest
II may be proper to add that we have in
this instance adopted style Of phraseology
much more complex and involved than is
our custom, in Difference to the noted stick
ling of our distinguished friend. the able
editor of our esteemed contemporary the
Republican, for strict observance Of the cir
cumlocutory and Piekwickian forms OF true
etiquette in the rhetoric Of diplomacy. We
are sure that we piled all REQUISITE into the
last sentence, all the large words necessary
TO proper diplomacy; and If any of them
are misplaced, we hope the able editor will
do us the favor 30 straightcn them out.

In THE DEBATE on the Apportionment
bill Nh. Bresedtt of New York, put for
ward the novel theory that because his
State contained more wealth per capita
than other States, her basis Of representa-
tion should be proportionately enlarged.
Hitherto the theory Of American repre-
sentatieni has been that men were the basis
of it. But Mr.. Prescott seems to think the
basis ught to be dollars. This theory was
never before advanced on the floor Of Con
eress. Tho fact that it is now put forward
shows simply an. aggressive growth of the
spirit of plutocFacy, Mes are nothing,
Money is everything. Such is the creedl

Reports from Kansas show that there
is considerable suffering among the col
ored people who emigrated there a
year or so ago, and efforts are being
made to raise money to relieve them.
1t is estimated that over fifty thousand
colored people from the South are now
living in that State, and that several
thousand of them are really in need of
assistance. The efforts, however, in
their behalf, do not seem to be meeting
with success thus far.
