selves or to our institutions.
While our Constitution and the pa-
irfmhm .nd Intnlliwne of the ocoDle have
Wn WBtofore considered eaoat to any and
every emergency, the present undefined and they have force enough by common connent
undefinable jumble of acts, words, opinions to create and perpetuate a happy and pros

the law lu the minds of just and honorable
men, is all that Is required ; and in the next

npon tht virtue and patriotism of a free peo-
pie io a republic. Our government was so

Under such circumstunoes the poople be-
como restloss and conclude that if such
wrongs are constitutional and lawful, then
our whole system Is defective, from turret to
foundation-stone. The roal fault Is not io
tbelaws, but ia the manner of enforcement,
or Io the nocloct to enforce them at all; our
laws aro not so bad, nor so sood, perhaps, as
thoy might be, but they are Bhamofully neg-
lectod or criminally enforced In numerous in
stancos, aud tbe spirit of tho law ts not un
dorstood or rospoctcd. Taking this view of

it couia not oe eunrr piensani proniaoie w

Roman republic, citizens were tent from its
farthest provinces to be tried at Home aud
tbe Roman republic ended io a corrupt em

load of vices and it now known only in

the cruel and half civilized Turk wares bit

Great and the forgotten republics of the Ori
ent These facts were koowa to the frtmert
of our constitution, and to avoid tbe reelt
npon which republics and democracies of
other ages had beo wrecked, they wisely
provide a dual system for themselves and
for their posterity. A general ftvernnot

a government come together without inter
vening members, that the political body is
very imperfect and soon becomes all bead or
all heels either a despotism or a mob. Nor
is it all in the system that preserves a state;
for all human contrivances are imperfect;
yet when they are known to be permanent
nd the people become accustomed to them
nd have respect for them as their own, then
estly administered and without thought of
change until the need of a change is so
PPt that It may be seen and felt by all.
"A thousand years scarce orve to form a
State; an hour may lay it in the dust," there.
fore let us advocate no change that may
bave even a doubtful influence upon our
selves or our country. Sparta was rumed by
n apparently trifling change in ber conBtitu-
oa. Epitades bad the constitution amend-
tat hereditary estates might be alien

Byrop tells us the history of Sparta thus :
"l'lint Freedom and then Glory-when that
fails,
Wealth, vice, corruption burburlnin at last.
And History, with all her volumes viut,
Huth but one pafc-e."
By that innovation tho laws of Lycurgus

Hut supposo there are defects in our Con

be discussed calmly and when partisan an

may be considered and the good sense of all

It must be remembered that this
witness of the Democratic mana
gers" was pliant tool of the infamous
Louisiana Returning Hoard, and, con
sequently, if ho (bould unwittingly
swear the truth, there would be good
reason to give him the "benefit of
doubt" Hut in the estimation of the
editor of the OrrytwiMn, it is perfect
ly jast and legitimate that a half doteo
such scoundrels as he has portrayed
above should nullify t ten thousand
majority vote ot the most substantial
and honorible citizens of the State.
lIedenour.ee the thief and at the

About eight million American! vo
ted tor tbe residential candidates in
November and at least six mil Jon of
that Lumber believe that Tiljn was
elected, consequently if Hayes should
be counted in, it proves that there are
two million traitors and six million
cowards in this thief and negro rid
deu oligarchy.
The Alta, speaking in regard to
South Carolina affairs, says : H Surely
there should be some authority some
where for deciding the gubernatorial
question, and it should be doneaf
quick as possible." The people, who
are the only competent authority,
have already decided, and if Grant
had any regard for bis oath or even
for common decency he would call off
lis bayonets, and the bogus Cham
bcrlain abortion would turablo to
pieces from sheer rottenness in less
than twenty-four hours, and legal and
constitutional government prevail,
Hippie propounded this conundrum
in Congress the other day: "The
ight to hold office is one of tbe high
est nights of an American citizen and
how is he to be deprived of that
right?" That "how" is just what
Iipple and his rascally returning
boards are trying to demonstrate.
Fred Douglass says : "If Tildeo is ioaug
urated the Devil will come In great wrath
If the old fellow will exhibit bis wratn I
we learn he did in olden times and rush tbe
herd of Radical swine into tbe sea, he wi

A Radical exchange says : "Democratic

Very Uael'ul to livery One.
In no other way can a person get back so
large a profit lor a very little money, as to
expend it in learning what to do, when to do
it, aud how to do it ip other words, to have
his brains help hia hunds. Here ia oue way
to do this : The Binull saving or extra pro
duction of loss thao half a cent a day, or
3 coots . a week, will now procure a Urge,
beautiful, cheap Journal, for all of 1S77,
splendidly Illustrated, with over GOO fine
original Engravings, au 1 over a Thousand
Columns of llu very best, plain, practical,
trustworthy Information about tbe every day
in-door and out-door work and comfort of
every homo, Io Country, Village, und City.
This information la not prepared by mere
scribblers, but by a largo force of intelligent
working men ajid women, who know what
thoy wrilo about, and they are assisted by
many others, who furnish information from
their own practice and observation. Sucb
a Journal as the American Agricultural, so
named because started 35 years ago as a
rural journal, but since greatly enlarged and
improved to suit the daily wants of every
man, woman aud child In City, County and
Village for the Farmer and Gardener, the
Merchant and Mechanic, the Professional
Mau indeed all classes. It is packed full
of useful information that every one ought
to have. Many single hints and suggestions
will repay more than a whole yoar's cost of
the paper. Its original engraved plan for
buildings tnd Improvements, with details ol
cost, etc., and common-sense directions, are
worth far more than a majority of tbe costly
works on architecture. Great care is exer
cised to have every line in the papnr reliable.
Its constant, persistent and full exposure of
a multitude ol humbugs and swindles, tre
alone worth far more than its cost, and have
saved to its readers and to tbe country mil
lions of dollars that would have gone .into
the bands of sharpers. The Departments
for Housekeepers and Children are very use
ful and entertaining. In sboit, the Amiri
tan Agriculturist is full of good things, and
oujjht to be in every bouse iu the land. Tbe
circulation is to large that the publishers
can supply it at little above the cost ol print
ing paper or SI bU a year, sent post-paid ;

sue counting ot the doctoral vote
was begun and proceeded with until
Florida was called, when objections
were made to each ot the three certi

argued bclore that body by Evarts for
tbe Republicans and by Charles O'Con
or and Jeremiah HIack tor the Demo

Republicans to seven Democrats,
it was decided that no evidence coald
be admitted or considered except the
various electoral certificates and such
evidence as shall be submitted on the
quostion of the eligibility of Humph

decision teems to be regarded by Re
