AN EMBARRASSING SITUATION.


The representatives Of both countries evil
IDENTIFY appreciate the position the sustaining of
the. law places them in, as neither were willing
after the decision was announced to say word,
fearing that some statement injudiciously made
or incorrectly interpreted might be the cause
of serious results.
After Secretary Carlisle became aware Of the
action Of the Supreme Court he Immediately
left the department yesterday and went to the
White House, where he remained for over an
hour.
At the Chinese legation the Chinese minister
courteously declined to express any opinion
upon the decision Of the court or to give any
intimation as to the course his government
might deem proper to adopt under the circum-
stances. He especially declined to say anything
upon the alleged retaliatory policy Of ordering
the expulsion Of Americans from China.
MIR. H. j. Moy, counsellor to the Chinese
legation. said last evening that the contest
against the law would doubtless be transferred
to Congress when it meets in the fall. Under
present conditions it will be impossible for the

Some Remarkable Propositions.

We stated two weeks ago that Repre-
sentative Robertson, backed up by pc
tltion signed by two Thirds, probably
three-fourths OF the people most direct
ly interested in the proper management
OF the postuf1ict here, |aG asked for thc
appointment as postmaster OF Mr. &. j.
Thompson, a gentleman in every way
competent aud working Democrat, but
that the privilege usually accorded
members OF Congress iD such cases had
been denied him and the daughter Of an
Alliance member of the Legislature had
been appointed to the Office. The Cla-
rion, with all these facts before it, re-
tolts that Representative Robertson
bad no ljght to claim the disposal of thi:
oifice.' 1t therefore denies the right Of
the people to rule OF to make their voice
heard in the selection Of their public
servants. We do not think the people
whose wishes have been disregardcd
will agree with it i'll this.
rs to the Ciariou'S gratuitous assump-
70 dictate TO or even advise Mr.. pu' ord,
the Alliance member in question, it is
too silly and uufUurdcd to deceive any
but The most IsnDTaHt. It is faircr and
mole logical to assume that its utter
auces IN that point were rather intend
cd as gentle hint to Mr. Pufora, that
having been elected with tI!c Clarcn's
assistance he should go to that alleged
jouln for advice and follow its lictn-
ton. We do not know what view MIR.
PulfUrd takes Of this but wo do know
that he has sufficient pelspicacity to see
what is plain enough TO every body
else who is conyerSant with the facts
that he is the object Of foul and tlclib-
crate plot to swervU him from the path
of rcctitude, to scduce him from his al
legiance to the principles upon which he
was elected, to cause him to repudiate
his fol maily expressed views on public
men and Oh public questions; and We
believe he has enough manly honesty 10
resent at the proper time and in The
proper manner the base conspiracy to
debauch him.
As to the ignorant assumption that
because the De ':oCHAT did not assist in
Mr.. Pulford's election it has no right to
advise him, we beg to say that we have
as good a right to advise him, if we
think it necessary, OF even to point out
to him his duty, if we should see proper
to do so, as bis most ardent supporter;
for Mr.. Pulford, although tue Clarion
does not seem to be aware of it, is the
of ali tic people - of
those who did not vote for him as well
as Of those who did-and his public acts
and utterauces, his fair name ndsfame,
are the property oi the people.
