An agreeable impression has been abroad OF late
that Mr.. Venn0r had left for the SOudan. But he
turns up az usual in Montreal with some printed
anticipations of March weather. 1t will be I'M
usually cold during the month, and between the
Sth and 10th there is to DO a storm period" AS
for the entire forepart of March, it will DO "cold
and stormy generally" 1t would be well If Vennor
would append to each one of his prophecies some
such caution as this: The prophet cannot under
take to return the confidence that may be placed IN
him; all faith at the risk of the owner.

The Supreme Court have finally reached
dpcisi0n in the legal tender cases which have
been pending so long Their opinion is that the
Legal Tender act of March 81, 1873, was con-
stitutional and valid. Nobody has ever doubted
that this Government had the right to issue
greeubacks during the war; necessity Justified
that. But many constitutional lawyers ana
statesmen have held that to reissue these notes
in time of peace, as was authorized by the act of
1873 was unconstitutional. According to this
decision, however, the Government OF the
United States. like any other sovereign power
has the right in peace or war to decide whether
there is necessity of issuing Treasury notes
which shall be legal tender for the payment OF
debts. Timid observers will probably think
that this is dangerous decision; and anti
monopolists will doubtless fatter themselves
that it contains the promise of the issue of fiat
money whenever they can get control of Con-
grcss. But there is practically no reason for
fear-or rejoicing either, for that matter.

The Ku-Klux Khan gets no encouragement
from the Supreme Court. 1t was decided
yesterday, in the well-known Ku-Klux cases,
that the Federal Government has power
TO pass laws to prevent fraud and intimi-
dation at elections. The most remarkable thin z
about these cases is that that question should
ever have been raised.

1t is hard to see why any one should believe
the rumor that the PrOtecton.st Democrats
and the Republicans in the House of Represent
atives have formed an alliance to defeat Mr..
Morrison's tariff bill. There is no need of an
alliance for that purpose. Mr.. Randall and
his fellow Democrats who are of his way
of thinking will probably kill the bill
quickly enough. To be sure, if they require
little help toward the end they will probably
get it from the Republicans. But it will not be
the result of an alliance in the usual sense of
the word.

r,chanro seems to be cleared up pretty efiectu-
ally by an interview with S.V. White pub
lisbed elsewhere. 1t will be found OF hveiy III
terest, especially by such gentlemen as follow
the trade of financial wrecking. There nave
been larger deals in Wall Street, but few so
large and successful made by one man, at short
notice. and CALAMITY in self-defence. Mr..
White appears to have fought his own battle,
keeping his own counsel, and now relates his
story with the freshness of victor who has
done nothing which he needs to conceal.
People who want to eat butter which is no

have right to do so; but these compounds
ought not to be palmed off on persons who do

These points nobody disputes; but the trouble
is, this swindling business goes right ahead
despite all the laws have been passed on the
the subject. Not only is the public cheated
but the farmers are greatly injured IN their
dairy business by this state of affairs. 1t is to
be hoped. therefore, that the Investigations OF
the Senate Committee during the last few
DAYS will not be wasted. But no laws are OF
any use unless they are enforced. This is
good point for the Legislature and the Gov
ernor to bear in mind.

1t is to be regretted that another investigation
of the Jeanette expedition has been ordered
We had hoped that that sad story was ended ;
but the friends of Mr.. Collins, it appears think
much remains TO he told. We doubt it. The
trouble which Collins had seems to have been
entirely due to his inability to submit to mill
tary discipline. What annoyed him, probably
would not have vexed a man of different train
ing at all. But, setting that aside it is proper
TO say that if this investigation is intended in
any way to prevent Engineer Melville from
sailing with the Greely Relief Expedition, it
ought to fail in that respect.

The anxiety of Mr.. Kirk, President of the
Board of Aldermen, to save the city money by
refusing to sanction certain street cleaning con-
tracts is truly refreshing. 1t comes late but
nobody would object tn it on that account. The
trouble is that appearances are against him. 1t
has long been known that certain political back
ers of Mr.. Kirk were enraged that they could
not get a grip on Mr.. COeman's department,
and meant TO bring the Commissioner to terms
by crippling his work. We fear. therefore.
that a cold, calm. sceptcal and sadly censorlOus
public will not give Mr.. Kirk credit for being
dlsinterested but will think that he would
have voted for the contracts quickly enough If
they had been given to Tammany man.

The very spacious auditorium and gal
lery of the Congregational Church were
filled to full capacity last evening to hear
Rev Dr. Ncwman's narrative lecture on
the VALLEY Of the 1uphrates and its Buried
Cities Very many were unable to secure
regular seats and had to be accommodated
with chairs in the aisles. The audience
was q thoroughly representative one and
of highest credit to culture, intelligence
and scholarly appreciation in this COM
munitv. 1t would be neither Just to the
speaker, whose property the brilliant dis
course IS, nor satisfactory to the public, to
attempt any synopsis of the two hours
lecture 1t was a notable characteristic
of the lecture that there was no
dilettanteism about it; but it was
marked by Vigor and strength. plainness,
simplicity and straightiorwardness He
had to deal with great subject and neces-
sarily could but touch upon the historic
points and truths and suggest to the nearer
the world of Archaeological wealth that is
ready for his research and of the richness
of The record in recent archaeological litera-
ture lie was driven of necessity 10 fire.
quently speak Of himself, but there was no
egotiSln in the doing He spoke evidently
Of that which filled him, and his eloquence
was that of unstuded earncstnesS. He did
not seek for oratorical effects; they came
in natural sequence. He spoke without
notes and proved himself master linguist
and an orator of admirable self-possession.
The literary brilliancy OF the lecturer is al
most lost to the nearer in the interest he
awakensin making the signiiicant characters
in his discourse prominent, and to which his
fancy, as we'll rs his criticism, are made
secondary. The incidental proofs of the
truth of Bible prophecy disclosed by the
spadc-thc new weapon that is contound-
ing doubt and paralyzing unbc'ief-were
introduced with admirable art, and pre-
scented with conscientious force. The
lecture was not lacking in humor, and there
was art enough shown in this respect to
testify to the keen knowledge of the lect-
urer of the right method of holding an
audience. Perhaps the highest tribute
paid to the scholarship and eloquence OF
the learned traveller and eminent divine
was the perfect attention given by the vast
audience during period of two hours, and
of the appreciative applause that testified
TO recognition of the resting places of wit.
1t can scarcely be doubted that second
lecture by the same gentleman, should he
return to this city before leaving the coast,
would be equally as favorably appreciated
rs that of last night.
