A GEORGIA PpSSIIDiSt.

Representative Gaines OF Tennessee is
not at all encouraged as to the future OF
tie country by the recent decisions of the
Supreme Court in the. Porto Rico cases.
"(n lSC3", said he to friend the other
day, John Breckinridge, who performed
Tor Mr. Jefferson some what the same office
that Mr. Spooner performs for Mr.. Nc.
Kinley in the Senate, As the mouthpiece OF
his Administrator, vas pressed by the op.
pouents of the Louisiana puchase to say
what he believed that policy Of expansion
would ultimately lead to. "If we can add
this new territory to our domain" they ask
ed, ",chat is to prevent our reaching out TO
some country Of the old world and annexir
it %
"That is possible, of course, was Mr..
Breckinridge's answer, in effect, "but pos
sibiIity too remote to be worthy of serious
consideration. For that matter, the time
may coma when this people will wish again
for king".
Mr.. Gaines expressed his cOndction thai
the return of monarchy is not so much OF q
shadow as il may seem to some. He sees
in the new national cult of "imperialism" 9
new and real danger against which the re
public must be guarded.

ing the negro OF his right of suffrage. WV

South always contended that the Declara-

inferior races, and the Republican policy
of to day completely accepts that view.

precisely what the country is doing in III

Of the superior race to govern savage tribes
aud mixed races" Really, we do not see
that there is any answer to this except to
call Mr.. Herbert an ezrebel, says the New
York Post. But we suppose that the South

and ImperialiAts, and would contend th$t
the North, having now gone over to their

The Court of Appeals adjourned last
