would be some ten days or two weeks after

would have 10 be settled before the Sena-

The Illinois Fraud,

1t is quite probable that the democratic
senatorial election fraud in Illinois may
yet be defeated, even though the candidate
obtains certificate Of election from the
Governor. When Brand appears in the
Senate to be sworn in. objection will be
made on the republican side to his re-
ceiving seat. That being done the
question must go to the Senate to be de-
cided The situation then, the course of
proceeding and the results are stated as
follows by the Chicago Inter-0cean;
Mr.. Brand not YET being admitted. the
Senate will stand twenty five republicans and
wentv-tive democrats. And when the CUES.

BEFORE any statesman refuses to ac-
cept the portfolio of the State Depart
ment in the next administration, ad-
vises the New York Sun, "he should
take care to study the histories of the
Secretaries Of State Of the past. Wash
ington's Secretary of State, Thomas JEFF
serson, became President, and great
President he was. JeilersOn's Secretary
Of State, James Madison, became Presi-
dent; so did Madison's Secretary of
State, James Monroe. Monroe's Secre-
tary of State, John Quincy Adams, be-
came President. Mr.. Adams Secretary
Of State, Henry Clay, never lived to be
President, but he became the leader and
candidate Of great party, and only just
failed OF election. But Martin Van Blu
rem, Jacksons Secretary of State, be-
came President. Then james Buchanan,
Secretary Of State under James H. Polk
became President. Then, however, there
comes n considerable break. In Mr..
Lincoln's cabinet Mr.. Seward presided
over the State Department, AS he did in
the cabinet of President johnson. Mr..
Seward had pretty strong Presidential as
pirations, but was never nominated. In
| der General Grant, the Hon. Hamilton
Fish was Secretary of State for eight
years, but he never got near the Presi-
dental nomination. Then we come to

Hayes. OF course he never became
President and never will. But the gen.

retired with the Inauguration of Presi-
dent Garfield, was the Hon. james G.
