I- -I " " " ' ' THE INDEPENDENT. SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 24; 1883. Tlie Civil Eights Decision. The opinion of the Supreme court of the United States in deciding the civil rights bill unconstitutional, has given i full recognitien and .effect to the doc trine '.of State rights, in it3 entire scope. Tbe decision should forever si- lence tho cavil of political shyster? who chiim there is anything dangerous to our institutions in a full recognition of State sovereignty. Those cavilers for strong, centralized government, yhere State lines are obliterated, should for ever hold tl oir peace. This decision of a Jletmblican uupreme court recojt- aiz3 in its fullest and most compre hensive acceptation"1 the doctrine of the trict construction of the delegated rovers contended for by the Demo- 1 eratic fathers. The decision holds that the pillars of our institutions rest up on the broad and fundamental juinci ple that a 'sovereign State has a right under the constitution to regulate its orn domestic sifairs, without, inter ference from the national government. It recognizes the fct that individual rights an privileges belong to the people'in J.heir sovereign capacity! of State governments. The decision is in itself a guaranty of the perpetuity, Strength and beauty of our institutions, and proves that the judiciary is a. check jpon hasty partisan actionby the leg; islatJve or executive departments; cf cur government, aud'that safety to our !f institutions lays in a court well versed iuthe constitution and laws. , "Bkck Bart " Sentenced- A Mokelumne Hill, C jl., dispatch of HTTeniber 17ih says: Charles E. Bol- on was brought before the Superior court of this county to day,, Hon. C. V. Gottschyll presiding for the ar raignjuent, and after the information had been read to hiui by the clerk, he entered a plea of guiity and waived time for pronouncing judgment. I Be- fore sentence was passed Bolton tnade - - m I a statements the court He denied bing "Black Bart," and declared that this was hia first and should be his last offente against the law. He said that clrcunmances over which re nad no entrol had urged him to the commis sion of the crime,' and that he had yielded to temptation after several struggles. He implored the mercy of th court. The court thereupon,1 after ttatincr to tho prisoner the crime of which he stood sell-convicted, and giv ing him a few words of admonition? entenced him to-six years' imprison ment at San Quntin. A "Washington dispatch says: Sher SianY speech to the boys in New York handed a around, read and comment . ed on in a way that may be said to be significant, in the usual way of putting ' it The soldier element in politics is yreW nigh eliminated, but for a consid erable tini there has existed an effort to try to revive it with Sherman, This, despite the fact that he declared ii t i lit- i it war, ue wianea to pe jet aione, ana nis intention to live henceforth quietly among his friends. It is perfectly well known that he is not averse to the nomination. The General himself, in hia Epeech to the boys, has done not a little to promote it Tha purpose has Actual body with life in it. The pro moter! of the idea hold that, as the time hai come when the Presidential question. roust be dealt with, and there var no prominent Republican or Demo cratic leaders who can rally the coun try, they believe the idea of putting Jura on the Presidential ticket is not an impracticable one. Old soldiers, including not a few Confederates, will rally for hijn as a candidate, and that -Republicans anc sundry fragmentary organizations, inarching under diverse burners, will center on him. Ihe prohibition idea seems to be op. rative in Florida, nd in many parts ef that State no liquor can be had for ither money or influence. The consti tutionality of the recent enactment for bidding license for the salo of liquor, has been, affirmed by the Supreme oourfc, anjl the people of any election 4iatrict may declare absolute prohibi l&om when they choose to. JLn eastern paper interviewing Gen eral Sherman has the following: J'Ac fidpt a Presidential nomination? No, fir; not much. Don'tyou supposa I know what it means if .they nominate fuel The politicians don't care any thing abolit me j and' if they should nominate me it would only be because hey thought the.? couldn't win with any one else. I've got too old to be made a cat's paw of by politicians. I fcave had a good office, been for years at the head of my profession, have am ple provision for the rest of my days, nd I don't think I'd sell myself out for that bauble."

John S. Barbour of Virginia, regard ing Mahone's address, savs: We all unite in saying that Mahone's address is a monstrous outrage upon our peo ple. Rut the Democratic State com- A - . mittee will meet at Richmond Thurs day next, when an authoritative an swer will be made. Until then Demo crats of V lrgima have asiceu a suspen sion of public opinion from friends at the north. The principal aspirants for Speaker tb(J Hous-of . Representatives are Cox of New York, Randall of Penn sjlvania, and Carlisle of Kentucky. The latter will be elected, as ha repre sents the free trade element of then U0US9. , - The New Vork World is surprised because Mr. Eeecher delivered a speech in Brooklyn the other night and said nothing about politics, but as Mr. Bcecher often preaches sermons and says nothing about religion, perhaps the matter is not astonishing, says the Chicago Times, jSTOTIGE. !
