In failing to confirm Judge Merrick on ao-
count Of his age, the Senate will be commit
ting an outrage only less in degree than it
would with the President and the House,
committed a quarter Of a century ago by
legislating him out Of office. The rule as to
age is good one. But Judge Merrick's case
is an exception that the blindest can see.
To legislate him out of Office in his prime,
and then keep him out on the plea of age,
are two wrongs that will never make right.

Gen. Hancock's ill-suceess in the Presi-
dental campaign Of 1850 cast not the slight
est reflection upon his merits. lie was not
defeated by honest ballots, but by "eIisp
'twodollar bills" and the "soap" upon
which Mr.. Arthur publicly congratulated
Mr.. Dorsey at certain famous banquet. II
his true majority had been counted in his
favor, the country would have been spared
the dark tragedy Of 1851 and much else that
has since ensued. No blessing followed any
OF those who took part in this crime agains,
the franchise, quite as black as that which
defrauded Mr.. Tilden.

Very properly indeed Louisiana came to
the front on Tuesday last and moved in the
House resolutions OF condolsnce on the death
Of Hancock. In war Hancock won renown
that placed him foremost in the rank OF
American soldiers, but it was as Commander
Of the Military District of Louisiana and
Texas that he shone forth the most con-
spicuous defender Of constitutional liberty
that this century has produced. And ever
grateful Louisiana will never forget his
generous and manly course.

The so.called "riots" in London last
week, when separated from cable exaggera.
tions, seem to have been simply an aggra.
vated case of AIRY on lark. Two things
are TO be remembered in considering the
amount of disorder first, that London Is the
largest city in the world, and easily mustsrs
an immense rabblei second, that the average
Englishman is much rougher parsonage
aud more given to horse-play than his Amer
lean cousin. The regular political meetings
in England seem to Americans very much
like riots, while our political gatherings
seem to English visitors as solemn as re-
ligious service. When an English patrican
goes on spree he wants to smash " some
thing, animate or inanimate, lamp-posts,
police, or what-not. With this example
before him, it is no wonder that his
brother OF the lower orders goes in for
"jolly row." mingled with profitable
lootiDg when he gets a chance. Another
point TO be remembered Is that the
London policeman is not the despot with
plenary power Of life and death that his New
York cOmpeer has become. He ia not al
lowed revolver, aud his club as weapon
would be regarded with lordly contempt by
that sanguinary rufisn, Captain Williams. Of
the "fnest." II is-safe to say that II such a
tumult had taken place in anAmerican city
il would have been more sternly and per-
haps more promptly stopped, but there wouli
have been more bloodshed aud probably
more destruction Of property, Judging from a
number OF conspicuous instances, which will
readily occur to mind. Ifhumanl life is Of more
value than mere goods and chattels, II would
seem that the forbsarance Of the English
police is TO be commended.

A story was told me recently about Gen. Bragg, of
Wisconsin, the commander of the famous "Iron
Brigade of the Army Of the Potomac, which is true,
to the extent at least of his we-earned reputation
able and gallant oicer. Gen. Bragg, though In
command Of this famous brigade, was only colonel
at the time of Grants coming East to command the
Army Of the Potomac. Grant soon learned Of the
high reputation of Bragg's command, and also of
Brargs individual efficiency. gallantry and soldery
qualities. He sent for Bragg one day, and asked
him how 1t was that he had not been made briga-
der and received the reply that 1t was probably be-
cause he was such an outspoken Democrat. The
GeneralnCh said nothing to Bragg, but remarked
to of his staff afterwards: "It is Just such Demo-
Gratis as Bragg that are needed to put down this Re-
belllon, and Intend to see that his we!l-merited
promotion is secured at once"

More About the Unfortunate Poor
House Girl.

Our reporter has made further in
designations into the case of the un'or-
tunate child who ran away from the
poor farm, where she had been sent
as a pauper She not only has fits as
she says, but she is afflicted with n
most foul and loathsomc disease, i'm
ported to her, she says, by one OF the
negroes who forced her under threats
to kill her, and through her fears to
submit herself to his lusts. She has
certainly been so afflicted some time
and is now in n condition that is sick
cning to contemplate.
Judge Bower had not until yester-
day evening been informed Of her con-
dition and the charges she makes as to
her treatment by the negroes ut the
farm. lie says there arc only two ne
grocs at the farm who could have mis-
treated her, and they are two TRUSTEES,
men whose terms have nearly expired
and they help round the premises,
going and coming at will. The other
convicts are worked under guard
during the day, and are kept under
lock and key in the Jail at the farm at
night. There are plenty of negroes in
the vicinity OF the farm who some
times loaf and pretend to hunt in the
woods contiguous, and some of them
may be the guilty parties. lie VIII
have the matter sifted to the bottom,
and whoever may be guilty had better
never been born. The child ought now
to be sent to the hospital ut the
county's expense, where she can be
treated, and her health as nearly as
possible restored. Judge Bower says
he would willingly send all the III
digent orphans thrown upon the
county TO Buckner's Orphans Home
if he had authority, but as the law en-
lists he can only send them to the poor
laru. lie expressed perfect willing
ness in all such cases to issue letters OF
guardianship in all such cases, from
the probate court, to DR.. Buckner or
any other good man who may desire
to put them in the Orphans Homo, as
by that process alone can it be done
now. The child in question is now,
however, fit only for the hospital.

At CrOwdus Hall.

There was some disappointment last
evening among a number Of people
who came out to listen to the preach
ing in Crowdus Hall. They expected
to heal Bishop Galloway, but that
gentleman was not well enough to
preach, and his place was filled by DR..
POINTER, of kentucky, who ably sup
piled the place. The point in his SER
mon was the preservation ofthe ilocks,
by providing them preachers ana
houses of worship. DIR. Morton io!-
lowed in an able address in the same
line of tl,ought-build churches. lie
said that the $40 given by Mrs.
Fowler Hunter, of this city, was the
seed that started and completed the
building Of n church in llidalgo
county. the only church building in
that county. Methodists were every
where. You could not go to the re-
hottest part of this county but what
you found Methodists, or they were
coming, and il was no trouble to build
churches if the people would work to
that end. Church extension was the
making of preachers and building
churches. The object Of these SER
mons was, doubtless, to impress upon
the people the importance of giving
aid to the building Of churches and
establishing church societies.

tl7, 100000 The expenses OF the
State government from 1872 to 1874
amounted to the extraordinary sun
Of s2,5O0,OOO, against $3.50, 900 from
1884 to 1856, under Democratic rule
When it is explained that the Repub
lican General Assembly of 1873 cost
the taxpayers $3.50, 900, while the
Democratic Legislature Of 1888 cost
only s95, 700; that the State printing
under Republican rule in 1901
cost $50, GOO, and only s45, 200 un-
der Democratic rule in 1884 SO; that
the expenses of the auditors office
under Republican rule in 1S72-74
amounted to $4,000 against sl6,-
600, under Democratic rule in 1884.
81; that the salaries of executive and
judicial officers under Republican
rule in lS73-74 amounted to s2Sl,.
$50 against sl33,900 under Demo-
cratic rule for lSS4-S6, people pos
sessed of ordinary common sense will
readily discover the difference be-
tween Republican extravaganza and
deTocralic economy, and be able to
decide whether Democracy has kept
its pledges to the people.
As the fatal official totals shows,
Republican rule increased the tax
alton rate to the extreme limit of f.
nancial endurance. 1t ran it up in
1873 to l2.5 mills, which Democracy
has reduced to 4 mills, The vast
sums thus wrenched from an impov-
erished people were voted to party
favorites who became enriched at the
expense of the tax payers. Every
body who had access to the public
treasury grew fat on the spoils.
Economy was whistled down by the
winds. The lemon was sucked dry,
and then abandoned. When the
Democracy took charge in 1874 they
found t67 OF the general revenue in
the treasury. They found s34,O0O
in school fund. After enlarging the
scope and constantly increasing the
and eleva.ing the standard
oi the public schools, erecting costly
school buildings all oyer the State,
democratic management shows s26l-
900 in the school fund in the treasury.
The general revenue fund on hand,
s0' IN 1874, now foots up 81 $4,000,
Notwithstanding the heavy appropri-
ations for necessary public buildings,
completed and an honor t. the State.
