Senator Logan reflected great cred
it upon himself by his refusal to lend
his influence 10 further investigate
charges against the manner of Senator
Payne's election by the Ohio Legisla-
ture. Senators Sherman, Edmunds,
Hale and Others wanted the investi-
cation continued. The history of the
case is as follows: The Republican
members of the Prevent Ohio Ergisia-
ture some months ago, by resolution,
made insinuations; rather than direct
charges, against the legality of Mr..
Payne's election, and forwarded them
to the United States Senate, with a
request that the Senate investigate
them. The Senate did so, at the re
quest of Senator Payne in addition,
and found nothing irregular, illegal or
improper in connection with Mr..
Payne's election, and the committee
making the investigation so reported.
The motion TO continue the investiga-
ton was defeated by vote of A to
Il. By a similar vote the Senate de-
clared there should be no further in
vestigation.
When the Ohio Legislature passed
a resolution to inquire into the charges
of bribery, &C., intimated in connec-
ton with Senator Payne's election,
that gentleman at once wrote to the
chairman of the committee asking The
fullest investigation, and offered 10
deliver to the committee all his books,
papers and letters. These were never
asked for, but in the most superficial
way the committee went through q
form, and drew up resolutions. which
the Legislature passed aud sent to the
United States Senate. depending upon
the partisanship of that body to hud
cause to declare Mr.. Payne's seat
vacant. The charges proved to be
idle rumors of the fiimsiest sort, and
as much as the Republican majority
of the Senate desired to see Repub-
lican in Mr.. Payne's seat the honest
minded portion OF them couli not W th
any show of decency do otherwise than
abandon the investigation. although
the leaders applied the party lash.

The government printing Office, by

the control Of a Democratic chief.
There has been for months q great
clamOr among Democratic politicians

Of Colonel Rouads. the Republican
incumbent. and the appointment oil
one of their number in his stead. Bot
the President took different view OF
the matter, and concluded that il
would not be advisable to change the
management of the vast establishment

was thought that a change in the

Trouble is brewing on the Rio
Grande. A. X. Cutting. an American,
editor Of newspaper, has been i'm
PrisOned by the Mexicans charged
with libel. Cuttings arrest and de-
tention is based upon a Mexican law
whereby jurisdiction is assumed by
Mexico over crimes committed against
MexicaHs in the United States or any
foreign country, and it is contended
that under this law the publication of
OF a libel in Texas was made cosnix-
able and punishable in Mexico. This
claim Of jurisdiction by Mexico was
peremptorily and positively denied
by Secretary Bayard, who has declared
that the United States would not
assent to or permit the existence Of
such extra territorial force to be given
to Mexican law. The Secretary, on
July 10th, instructed Minister Jack
son to demand Of the Mexican author
tiles the instant release Of eustins.
