The Rights OF States.

Hon. Horatio Seymour was in good
time with his wise commentary upon
the work of the Republican party fol-
the last eighteen years, and the ccntraliz
ing ideas which that political organiza-
ton had carried to such an extreme.
We have steadily maintained that the
Democratic party is the party of the
Constitution, and that the fundamental
law of the land has been ignored by the
Republican party in its moe prominent
legislation whenever it found the Con.
stitution opposed to it, purposes. The
reverence for the Constitution that is
necessary to pure and stable govern
ment, was in a state of suspension dur
ing the war. Perhaps such condition
OF affairs. though lamentable, was par
donable under the impulses and exigen.
cies of the great nfict, but as soonas
peace was declared. the Constitution
should again have been taken up as the
compass, from whose indications there
could be no safe deviation. But we
know that an entirely contrary course
was pursued. The institution was
left stranded even where the demorali,a-
ton of war had left it. The fresh
Amendments Jared no better than the
original articles. though it would seem
as if the dominant party should at least
have been able to make its legislation
conform TO the Amendments which il
was largely instrumental in securing
But even the Supreme Court, whose
partisan bias, if it has any. must be
strongly Republican, declares that
one of the most conspicuous acts of
Republican legislation con orms to no
article. Amendment or principle. to be
found in the Constitution. The decis-
ion of tais court, averse to the constitu.
tiOnality of section 5,519 of the Revised
Statutes, makes persecution OF all that
has been done under that statute, and
sc far as the General Government has
inflicted penalties. it has done so with
as little valid authority as gang OF
Colorado lynchers have when they take
a man away from his legally constituted
jailer, and hang him from the nearest
tree. Mr.. Seymour explained the result
of the recent elections as due. in. no
small degree to the disgust OF the better
element in the Republican party with
the corruption for which that party was
responsible. and which had grown to
such startling proportions through the
of the centraliz NO tenden-
cies which have characterized the DOM
lnant party for the last twenty wears.
The Government must swing back to its
state sovereignty if it would keep its
representative and democratic charac-
ter. There has been no warrant for the
excuses that have been perpetrated in
the name of progress, and the American
people must thank the expansiveness
and the general placidity of the sea

The State of Chiapas, in Mexico, has
suffered series of misfortunes the past
two years Floods first swept away part
of the Capital, and in the hot zone crops
and fields were destroyed; then, in 1881,
the locusts devoured everything that was
green, and left the farms and forests
perfect desert; then they returned and
played the same havoc in 1882, and last
year the cholera almost depopuiated
whole districts; whole families died in
single night; on some plantations there
were only three or four people left alive.
The town of Tuxlia had 5000 inhabit-
ants, 600 Of whom died; Of the 5000 in
Tonola upward of 1000 died. The cpl
demic only prevailed in the hottest
localities, and its presence is attributed
10 the immense number Of locusts buried
at the farm near Chiapa River, where the
epidemic broke out

The Secretary Of State has written
letter to Chairman Hiscock, Of the House
Committee on Appropriations. with
reference TO the approaching Interna-
tional Exposition at Amsterdam. Last
year he recommended small appropria-
ton upon the erroneous impression that
the Exposition was simply acolonial and
export exhibition. He has since
learned that II is to be an exposition
international in its character, and he
regards a full display Of American pro-
ducts Of prime importance TO the COM
merce and trade Of this country. he
thinks that no exhibition has been
held in Europe superior in
its advantages to American trade than
this one promises to be. He urges,
therefore, that Congress make n liberal
appropriation as soon as possible to defray
the expenses of the American exhibit.
The Exposition opens in May and lasts
until October.
