that the programme proceeds upon the

InpnRrANr Decisions.

The Supreme Court of the United
States, on the 9th, rendered decisions
4nvolving the bonds of Louisiana
and Virginia, and settling one Of
the most important questions made
before that court for years. There
were four cases before the court.
One was a suit by the State Of New
Hampshire against Louisiana, and
the other by the State of New York
against Louisiana. These suits
were brought info the Supreme
Court. 1t appeared in the cases
that New Hampshire and New
York had no real interest in the
bonds held by them, but that they
were nominal holders of the bonds,
and were really prosecuting the
suits for the benefit of some of their
own citizens who owned the bonds.
Tho court unanimously declared
that the suits could not be main
tanned; that they were in reality
suits against Louisiana by the indi-
vidual citizens owning the bends;
that; under the eleventh amend
ment of the federal constitution, a
State could not assume the
prosecution against another State of
suits for the benefit of citizens Of the
suing State. The opinion was by
the chief justice.
In one of the other Louisiana
suits the bondholders sued in Cir
cult Court of the United States for
Louisiana, and sought an injunction
TO restrain the State treasurer from
diverting to other purposes the
| funds which had been raised under
the act of 1874 to pay interest on
consolidated bonds. In the other a
mandamus was asked TO compel the
State treasurer to pay the coupons
out of the funds in his hands, col
lected by tax for that purpose. IL
will be remembered that a provision
in the new constitution of Louisiana
required the State treasurer not TO
use these funds for the purpose for
which they were raised.
The other bond case was the Nlr-
ginia case, which involved the con-
stitutiOnality OF the Malone Riddle
berger readjuster scheme. The
court held that the statute which
forbade the tax receiver from TAX
ing the coupons in discharge of tax
es was unconstitutional and violated
the contract which the State had
with the creditors, but that the rem
edy provided for testing the gen.
uineness of the coupons for taxes
did not. in the constitutional sense,
impair the obligation of the con
tract. Mr.. Justice Field and Mr..
Justice Harlan also dissented in that
case.
During the delivery of the opin-
ions the courtroom was crowded.
Among those present were Roscoe
Conkling, Judge Hoadly, Randolph
Tucker, General Preston, Lamar,
SOuthmayd, and others. The other
cases decided were not of any special
public interest. These decisions in
dictate that the Supreme Court is
getting back to the safe and con-
sentative ground of States rights.
Indeed. all the late decisions of the
court involving political questions
show that the pendulum which
marked public sentiment as leaning
toward the establishment Of a na-
ton "with a big Y" is swinging
back 10 the other extreme. A large
majority of the court are evidently
States rights Democrats, nOtwith-
standing they were appointed as
ReDublicans.

Mr.. STEPHENS FUNERAL

If anything were needed to show
the hold Alexander III. Stephens had
upon the hearts of Georgians, the
details of the demonstration at his
funeral would supply it. Fully 30,
900 visitors were in Atlanta, and it
is estimated that 20, 900 persons were
on the streets. At an earl V hour on
the morning of the Sth the bells of
the city began to toll, and the vast
multitude moved toward the Capt.
toll, where the memorial services
were held Not one-twentieth of
those who desired to do so could get
into the hall OF the House of Rep
resentatives. Gov. COlquitt walked
into the hall arm in arm with Gen.
Robert Toombs. The General is blind
aud is represented as but a wreck of
the handsome man who was so much
admired in tho Senate years ago.
The services begun At 10 o'clock and
were opened with prayer. General
Gordon then read the resolutions
pre- Jared by the Citizens Commit
tee. Gov. Colquitt then obtained
the ear of the vast asSemblase by
the use OF only two words of intro
ductiOn Gen. Tombs. Rising
with difficulty Gen. Toombs turned
toward the pale face which lay be
fore him, he burst into tears, and it
was minutes before he could pro-
coed, sobbing like a child and melt
ing theaudiencei into thorough sym
pathy with him. Then, recovering
from his emotion, he spoke with his
old time vigor, for nearly an hour,
on the lite Of Mr. Stephens, his eyes
flashing fire as he touched on topics
which stirred within him memo
ries of the past. Impressive speech
es were also made by ex- Gov. Smith,
Senator Brown, Gen. Henry Jack
son and others. After the religious
exercises an imposing procession
composed OF both civic and military
organizations, including several bo-
dies OF colored troops, escorted the
funeral car 10 Oakland Cemetery,
where the remains were tempOrari-
lydspOsited. Six ex-Govcrnors were
among the pall-bearers. Ii is be-
lieyed that the pageant was the larg
est funeral ever witnessed in the
South.

that one of Mr.. Speaker Keifer's last
official acts was to demand of Mr.
Tyson his resignation as one Of the
stenographers of the House. The
place j. worth $4,000 a year Keiier
then appointed his nephew in Ty-
sons place. His nephew had been
the Speakers private Secretary.
That place was given to a relative
named DE Hass, and another nephew
was appointed clerk of the Speak
er's table. These appointments are
annual and their incumbents will
draw salary until next session for no
service whatever. Ii is stated that
Mr.. Blaine, when a like vacancy oc-
Cured, aud he was urged to appoint

The friends of the Hon. Casey
Young, of the Memphis district, are
pushing him n a candidate for the
Speakership Of the next House of
Representatives. Theypresent him
as a revenue refOrmer His friends,
says a Virginia contemporary, di-
vide Democrats in the House into
several classes such rs protectionist
Democrats, of whom Randall may
be said To be the leader; free traders,
with Hurd and Morrison at their
head tariff for revenue men, in
Guiding Carlisle and Blackburn of
Kentucky; and the tariff reformers
among whom Mr.. Youngs friends
say be Is an able and influential
man. IL is urged by them against
Mr.. Randall that his protection ideas
are not Democratic, and that the
party steadily lost strength in the
country during hls term as Speaker.
Against Blackburn il is urged that
his elevation would lose numberless
votes 10 the party in the North, and
against Carlisle that he is so closely
identified with the proposed but i'm
possible whisky legislation of the
last session that he too would dam
age the party as Speaker. Free
trade men like Hurd, these friends
of the new candidate say, are dan
serous to the party and should be
passed rapidly TO the rear" Mr..
Young has just that combination of
qualities and that lack Of other quail
tiles which make him a safer man
than any of the other candidates
If all this is true.
