The Fantee Of Africa is religious II

GEORGE W. CHILDs, the proprietor
of the Philadelphia Ledger, who was
as close and intimate friend of Gen
eral Grant as any other man in this
country. says that during the progress
OF the Electoral Commission bill through
Congress, Grant expressed to him his
belief that Tilden had been elected Pres
ident. Col Mcclure, of the Philadel-
phia Times, corrobOrates Mr.. Childs
by the statement shat just before Grant
started on his journey around the world
he heard him discuss the election of
1876 very fully in the presence of Mr..
Childs, and that he (Grant) then said
that the vote OF Louisiana ought to have
been counted for Tiiden and he believed
all the time that it would have beer so
counted. This being Grants view of
the matter it may be asked why, as
President, he was so determined in car
rying out the final decision of the Com
mission in favor of Hayes. The answer
is very plain The Electoral Commits
sion was legal tribunal voted for by
nearly as many Democrats as Republi-
cans in Congress the former believing
that the decision would necessarily be
in favor of Tilden, belief in which the
honest portion of the Republicans con-
Cured Both sides having thus sub
mitted he dispute to the final judgment
Of the Commission, there was no other
alternative than quiet acquIescence in
its decision if revolution was to be
avoided and the only way in which to
prevent so great and terrible a calamity
was for the President to see that the
judgment of the Commission was carried
into effect, however unjust that judg-
ment may have been. History presents
40 instance in which grea, political par
~ for the sake Of the peace and tranquil
lity of the country quietly submitted to
a giant wrong. as the Democratic party
did when it accepted the final judgment

THE period of forty days fixed by the
President in his proclamation ordering
the removal of the cattle being pastuIed
on lanG within the Indian Territory
leased by the cattle kings from the Chey-
enne and ArapahOe Indians, expired on
Monday last. Information from the
Territory as late as Tuesday states that
the removal of the cattle was progress
sing as rapidly as the conditions would
permit-that within the past two weeks
more than seventy-6ve thousand head
had been driven off the reservation,
which number added to those previously
removed make the total over one hun
dred thousand, The number remaining
is estimated at about seventy Thousand,
and they viii be taken out as speedily
as possible. The bulk of the cattle are
being driven over to western ranges.
The cattle men seem to have concluded
that Mr.. Cleveland in his proclamation
meant precisely what he said.

WHEN a man like Peter Herdic, of
Williamsport, who. nOtimany years ago,
was engaged in a large number of spec
ulstive enterprises and was considered
one of the wealthiest men in his section
of the State, fails in business, it rarely
happens on an adjustment OF his affairs
that his too cOnfding creditors are COM
PEELED, almost in literal sense, to go
without a dividend. In Herdic's case,
however, the Registers report of divi-
dend which was filed last week in the
United States District Court at Pitts
burg, shows that the claims proven
against him amount to something over
a million of dollacs and that the assets
will pay a dividend of t,0o and a halt
mills. This shows that Peter is clearly
entitled to be ranked among the most
accomplished fnanciers of the present
day.

AT a banquet given by the Lord
Mayor OF Dublin on last Tuesday even
ing in honor of Mr.. ParneIl and his Irish
colleagues in the House Of Commons,
three hundred guests we're present. Nj.
PaInell delivered a somewhat lengthy
address in the course of which he said
that if home rule was refused the Irish
they would make it impossible for the
English TO legislate. England could
either grant the Irish the right to rule
themselves OF make the country a Crown
Colony. The latter would be practical
ly tsntamOuut to the former. He de-
nOunced outrages, saying that a contin-
uatiOn of them would be a terrible blow
to the Irish cause. Tie land question,
he said, was the great question in Ire
land
