your government that its officials in
Samoa shall be instructed to cooper
ate with the officials of the United
States for the peaceful conduct of af-
fairs IN these regions and if any cause
of difference shall arise which cannot
be arranged by their joint efforts in
such case resort shall at once be had to
the home government of either party
IN order that amicable results can be
reached
In note to Mr.. Coleman, in charge
of the legation at Berlin, under the
same date, Mr.. Bayard stated that he
agreed with Baron Won Holstein that
it was a matter of indifference to this
government what chief might be
at the head of Samoan affairs.
On November 3d. Mr.. Sewa1I being
then in Washington, informed Score
tary Bayard that the indisposition on
the part of the German consul at Sa-
moa to act in friendly cooperation
with him arose out of a misapprehen
! sion as to his motives, and from mis-
apprehension as to the policy of THU
government, and the expressed wisl
| that nothing should stand in the way
of an entire harmonious cooperation
between them in order that the preseni
unfortunate strife might be termin
ated.

Depew's ability to carry this State.
What other candidate can do this ! Mr..
Sherman is one of the ablest statesmen
in the country today, but it is almost
certain that he could not overcome the
Democratic maj rity in New York. Gen.
Sheridan has withdrawn. Allison is not

err Mr.. Evarts or Mr.. Hiscock is heard OF
much, that is as popular candidate.
No, don't think a man can be named
as strong as Depew.'
You 10 not think, then, that his con-
nection with New York Central would
iniure him seriously in the West ?"
mo, don't. Let him resign his Office

sor il nominated at Chicago. You must
remember that the railroads also repre-
sent an important factor in this country.
We must go West for the other man on
the ticket. Gresham would be an excel
lent vice presidential candidate, but
suppose he would not take second place.
Ben Harrison would suit splendidly.
With either Of these men and Depew we
could win"
This is a very good statement Of the
case as it IS viewed by the best informed
Republican in Vermont. The Washing.
ton correspondent of the Boston Adver
tiser writes that New York business
men are now in Washington IN good
sized groups to look after interests that
are assailed by the Mills tariff bill, and
they say without hesitation, when asked
about the presidency, that the Republic
can drift is toward Depew, of whom
they speak "ds a notably vigorous and
successful business man; man with
an ability in the line of intellectual at
tainments which makes his literary life
conspicuous. ~ Rutland Herald.

The price of loyalty in Congress TWEEN
ty-fve years after the war of the Rebel
lion, with the South in the saddle, is
outlined in the following despatch from
Washington, dated. March 10th: at is
not exactly true that the Loyal Legion
has blackballed Senator Ingalls,, but he
will be rejected if his name IS not with
drawn. Senator Ingalls, made his speech
on Tuesday and the LegionCommandery
met on Wednesday evening. Three
names had been before the commandery
the requisite period and were to be voted
on that night. The ballot for the cleo
ton to membership is a secret one, and
five blackballs are sufficient to shut Out
a candidate. On Wednesday it became
known to some of the friends Of ingalls,
that there was a movement among the
old officers under Hancock to backbalI
ingalls, when his name was reached al
the meeting that night Sooner than
have this occur the friends OF the Sen
ator consulted and agreed upon a pro-
CRANE. In accordance with this plan
the committee reported favorably upon
the other two names and ignored that Of
the Senator. The secret tin1ing was
that Mr.. Ingalls, military services were
not such as to entitle him to admission
to the order. That this was only sub
terfuge to avert the blackballing is well
understood" Either the membership
of the Loyal Legion should be rertSed or
its name changed.

SULLIVAN AND MITCHELL FIGHT
OVER FORTY ROUNDS.

CHANTILLY, France, March 1.-THE
Sullivan Mitchell fight ended in draw,
after A rounds had been fought, in three
hours and II minutes, Both men were
exhausted and their hands were badly
hurt. The official number of rounds
was but 80; but they really fought "A,
counting the number of times they sat
down on their chairs in the corners of
the ring. Sullivan could not knock
Mitchell out, although he hit him again
and again. Sullivan was cold and much
weakened by the pelting rain. Mitchell
was strong at the finish, but his hands
were bad; and he was very cunning.
The friends of the American champion
believe that he was overturned, and as
cribe his weakness to that fact. His
syst m could not withstand the cold and
wet. Mitchell fought very carefully,
keeping away from Sullivan as much as
possible, and making him do a good
deal of tramping around the ring. To
ward the close of the fight the betting
was about even on Mitchell, ana It
looked as if the battle would continue
until nightfall, At length the men
agreed to shake hands and bring the con,
test to a clo,e by calling it a draw

ceedings and his wife is sick of it and
