The senate. and the Admins.

The Senate, by the election Of
Logan, will during the FIRST two
years Of President Cleyeland's ad.
ministralion, contain a strong Re.
publican majority. Counting Ma

licans, as they now claim to be, the
Republican,strength in that body

two years, beyond doubt, no Demo.
cratic party measure can be passed
into a law, and no Democrat can
be confirmed in any office to which
he may be appointed by the Presi.
dent without the consent Of The
Senate. Only once since March
4th, 1851, has the Senate been
Democratic, and that was during
the period between March 3D., 1879,
and March 4th, 1881. After, The
war, during the era Of reconstruct.
ion, the Southern seats we're filled
by carpet.baggers, who did not rep.
resent the people Of the section
that sent them. The elections Of
the winter Of 1874 gave the Dem.
ocrats gain Of FIVE Senators from
the Northern States and as the
carpet bag brigade gradually drop
ped this accession gave the Senate
to the Democracy for the year after
March a, 1870.
The Democrats need gain Of
four Senators to make the Senate a
Tie after March A, 1887, which, with
the Vice Presidents vote, would
give them a majority and enable
Cleveland to recommend and carry
out a Democratic policy. Where

view Of the field would indicate
that the next Senate will very
probably be a democratic one. In

Cincinnati is very much moved

thing is to DO done at once-or at

of the same kind. A public per

An exchange: Carl schurz has
written an account Of his recent
visit TO the South. He compares
its condition now with what it was
when he visited it at the close of
the war. Much of the country was
then laid waste, the people we're
Impoverished and society was in
chaos. The South is now richer
than before the war Industries
are more diversified. All classes
seem glad thatslavery is abolished,
and they have a feeling Of loyalty
to the National Government. The
fears the two races once held
against one another are dying away.
The negroes are coming to see that
the whites Of the South are their

soon to become largely Democratic.
