Tl'ESUAY, FEBRUARY 9, 1875.
Representative Barnum, of Connecti- j
cut, has the credit of securing the pas
sage of the gag rule, which will enable
the Radical party to force through the i
House their revolutionary and despotic
measures. For this serv ice he is compli
mented by the Radical press. The Hart
ford Courant especially honors him. j
It says: “ By being absent, as j
usual, from his seat, he ena- 1
bled the Republicans to adopt the rule
which will prevent the Democratic filli-
busters from again blocking legislation.
So far as heard from, this is the only
good thing coming from Mr. Bamum's
neglect of duty during his six years in
the House."
This man Barnum, (we believe he is a
distant relative of the great showman,)
has been a Representative of his State in
Congress some six years, during which
time he has never opened his mouth, and
has been oftener absent than present at
roll call. It is to be hoped the Democrats
of the Nutmeg State will find some
worthier man to represent them in future.
The Administration Pbogbamme. —
The Washington correspondent of the
New York Journal of Commerce says :
“It is understood that the President
urges the Arkansas committee to report j tell his own story:
in favor of Brooks, so that he can use
troops to displace Garland. This they
are hardly likely to do. He is supposed
not to interfere exeept by direction of
Congress. This attitude helps to develop
the Administration programme, which
is the passage of a measure authorizing
interference at the South when Congress
is out of the way, force on the Arkansas
and Spanish questions, suspend the privi
lege of the habeas corpus, use the army
to control elections in 1876, and draw at
tenticn off from these usurpations by a
Spanish war. Nothing will stop all this
but public opinion loudly and promptly
expressed.
A Louisiana Legislative Picture.
A correspondent of the New York
: Times says that a great majority of the
Kellogg Louisiana Assembly cannot read
the laws they pass, and bring their bacon,
bread, cheese and whisky bottles to the
halls of legislation with them. There
are one hundred and eleven members,
j which makes fifty-six an exact majority,
which is the exact number of Republi
cans that, by a remarkable coincidence,
the Returning Board has seated. The
Republicans having just fifty-six mem- 1
bers, and all the fifty-five Conservative j
members having withdrawn, it follows i
that if any one Republican refuses to (
vote, or absent himself, a quorum is de
stroyed, and the great business of making 1 Tom
laws for Louisiana comes to a stand still.
The Brooklyn Eagle observes that it is a
fair plea in favor of the law-abiding and
peaceful character of the population
whom Sheridan called “banditti,” that
they have not “punctuated” even one of
these essential fifty six, when either by
massacre or “intimidation,” or “kidnap
ping,” or by even making one of them
drunk, liberty and legislation would stop,
like the hands of a run-down clock, in
the sovereign State of Louisiana. It
seems that on a recent occasion one of
these honorable members actually did re
fuse to vote. It was indispensable to
coax or force him to reason. Too much
was at stake. He would not be coaxed,
and a motion was pending to bring him
to the bar of the House for contempt.
At this point let the Timex correspondent

The Philadelphia Chronicle wants to
know why there has been no definite
action in regard to the unwarrantable in
terference of the Federal troops at Vicks
burg? Several weeks have elapsed since
that occurrence, and yet nothing has
been done either by Congress or the
President in relation to it. “Has it then
come to this,” asks the Chronicle, “that
so palpable a violation of constitutional
law is to be dismissed with no more
notice on the part of the national au
thorities, than if it had been a bar-room
fight in Alaska street, or the illegal
arrest of a citizen by one of Mayor
Stokley’s police?” Well, it really has
come to this, and if the true men of the
country do not shake off their lethargy
and put a stop to Radical usurpation, it
wiil soon come to a thundering sight
worse.
Upon this the wildest disorder pre-
! vailed. Twenty men started to their feet
| and commenced speaking at the same
moment. Above the general confusion
could be heard shouts of “You lie, you
nigger, you;” “Dat’s not parliamentary,
sail;” “You’s a wiolatin’ of the constitu
tion, sah.” The last remark was made
by a young and handsome mulatto. He
had no sooner uttered it than a very
black man turned upon him and ex
claimed with an air of the utmost con
tempt, “What you kuwos about the con
stitution, you yellow moke you? You
pusson of unsure parentage, you shut
your fool mouf.” This caused a loud
laugh among the negro spectators, and
was greeted with such exclamations as
“Golly, but dat nig is some,” “He’s the
man for talkin’,” “You bet,” and “To be
sure, honey.”
The light let in by this sketch ought to
be fruitful of suggestion to the people of
the United States.
‘ The
Grant Obeying the Politicians.—A
few days since it was announced from
Washington that Commissioner Douglass,
with a view to break up the system of
fraud and favoritism suspected to exist
in the Internal Revenue service, had is
sued an order transferring all supervisors
to new districts. It was aiso stated that
this order had created great dissatisfac
tion among both the supervisors and the
politicians on whose recommendations
they were appointed, who were besetting
the President to have it revoked. We
now learn from a special to tne New York
Pont that “the matter having been
brought to the attention of Gen. Grant
he promptly directed Commissioner
Douglass to suspend the order.”

A Washington dispatch says: At a
meeting of the Republican caucus Com
mittee on Southern Affairs, the question
came up as to whether the House would
support the proposition to make the army
appropriation bill extend over two years.
The opinion was expressed and acquiesced
in that the Republican Representatives of
the North would not support any such
unprecedented and revolutionary proceed
ing.
Negro Threat of Rapine, Fire
and Blood/’
We are of the opinion that the negroes
rather overdid the business when they is
sued their address, or petition as they
called it, a few days since to Congress, de
manding the enactment of the Sumner
civil rights bill, threatening desertion of
the Radical party, and “rapine, fire and
blood” against the South in the event their
demand was not complied with. Such
threats were not calculated to raise the
“petitioners” in the estimation of re
spectable white men of any party. The
Chicago Tribune, a leader of the Repub
lican sentiment at the West, commenting
on this negio pronunciamento. says:
“The address will do more execution at
the breech than at the muzzle. It is
aimed at the Republican party, but it
will hurt only the Southern negroes be
longing to the party. Their interest can
not possibly be advanced, for instance,
by the statement that they will be forced
in self-defence to act with the Democratic
party unless the civil rights bill is pass
ed. We do not understand how a man of
any intelligence could have fallen into so
gross a delusion. It is as much as to say
that, unles the negroes can have all they
want from the Republican party, they
will take what they can get from the
Democratic party: that is, they will fly
for pro fw ic:* lo me people from whom
they desire to be protected. The truth
is, that the Repblican party has provided
amply for the protection of the negroes
in the exercise of their political rights;
and, if it has erred at all, it has erred in
kindness to the negroes.”

Poison and Antidote.—The speeches
of Senators Gordon and Morton on the
Louisiana question go to the public in
the same issue of the Congressional
Record. They differ as widely as light
from darkness. Indeed, the speech of
the Senator from Georgia is permeated
with the clear, white light of truth,
whilst the speech of the Indiana Senator
is dark with falsehood, prejudice aud
hate.
Lieutenant Fitch, who married Minnie
Sherman, before accepting the jewels
tendered to his wife by the Egyptian
Khedive,asked Congress for permission to
do so, as they are a gift from a foreign
government. Congress gave the requisite
permission, but said nothing about re
mitting the custom dues, General
Sherman not being in favor at Wash
ington. Now that the jewels have ar
rived, Mrs. Fitch is in somewhat of a
quandry. The duty, which is 25 per
cent., amounts to about $75,000—a rather
stunning figure. Secretary Bristow re
fuses to issue a free permit. The Turkish
Minister cannot ask such a favor, as the} 7
are not for himself or household, nor
even directed to his care. It has been
suggested that the only solution is to
take a warehouse receipt for the dia
monds, and export them back to Europe.
Mrs. Fitch can then follow them, aud
bring them back as personal property in
use. And all this red tape must be car
ried out on account of a little picque
against her father in Washington.
Now that the gag-rule is adopted
Grant might have 8 law passed forbidding
auyone outside of his own family receiv
ing presents from foreign potentates or
anybody else. Butler would introduce
such a bill and force it through Congress,
for a consideration.

The Strength of Parties in the
Senate.—Parties in the next Senate of
the United States will be much more
evenly balanced than is generally sup-
posed, and it is safe to say that had there
been a half dozen more States to elect
Senators, the opposition would have
secured a clear majority in the Senate. [
On the Ad of March next the terms of
twenty-five Senators will expire. Of
these seventeen are administration and
eight opposition. Twenty-two States
have elected Senators, and in three—
Minnesota, Florida and West Virginia—a
result has not yet been reached. Of the
new Senators fifteen are safely to be
placed in the opposition, and to these
may be added those whom West Virginia
and Florida will elect. This, with the
sixteen opposition members holding over,
gives the anti-administration party a
total of thirty-three members, and leaves
the administration with only forty-one,
giving them the successor of Senator
Ramsey in Minnesota, aud counting
the vacant seat for Louisiana

Mr. Speer, of Pennsylvania, moved to sus
pend the rules and adopt a resolution declar
ing that iu the judgment of the House the
election of a President for a third term is
agaiust the traditions of the Republic, is in
violation of the example of Washington,
now as sacred as law itself, and would be
hazardous alike for the liberties of the peo
ple and the free institutions of the country.
The motion was lost, the previous quest.on

voted for it, with the exception of Mr. Smith,
of North Carolina, were Democrats, and all
who voted against it were Republicans.

printed and lie ou the table.
Mr. Hamilton, of Maryland, raised the
point of order that the report was signed by
only four members of the committee, which
was not a majority of the committee, being
composed of nine members.
Mr. Morton argued that there were seven
members present when the report wa6 made,
and five constituted a quorum. The report
was signed by a majority of those present.
Mr. Hamilton's point of order was over

ANOTHER MOVE IN THE PROGRAMME.
Washington, February 8.
To the Senate of the United States:
Herewith I have the honor to send, in
accordance with the resolution of the Sen
ate of the 3d inst., all the information in my
possession not heretofore furnished relating
to affairs in the State of Arkansas.
I will venture to express the opinion that
all tho testimony bhows that in the election
of 1872 Joseph Brooks was lawfully elected
Governor of that State; that he has been
unlawfully deprived of the possession of his
office since that time; that iu 1874 the Con
stitution of the Stale was, by violence, iu-
‘imidation aud revolutionary proceedings,
overthrown, and a new State government
established.
These proceedings, if permitted to stand,
practically ignore r.11 rights of
ip all the States. Also, what is there to
prevent each of tLe States recently read
mitted to Federal relations on certain con
iitions from changing their constitutions
and violating llieir pledges? I f this action
in Arkansas is acquiesced in, I respectfully
sobmit, whether a precedent so dangerous
to the stability of State governments, if not
•f the National Government also, should be
recognized by Congress. I earnestly ask
(hat Congress will take definite action in
this matter to relieve the Executive from
acting upon questions which should be de
rided by the legislative branch of the gov-
emmet. (Signed) U. S. Grant.

THE KELLOGG BUSINESS.
Washington, February 8.—Mr. Morton, of
Indiana, from the Committee on Privileges
and Elections, submitted a report in tho
Case of P. B. S. Pinchback, and a resolution
declaring him entitled to tlie seat as Senator
of Louisiana from March 4, 1373.
Mr. Hamilton, of Maryland, said that pur
ported to be a majority report of the com
mittee. As a member of the minority, he
raised the point of order that the report,not
being signed by five members, was not the
repott of a majority of the committee. It
was signed by four members only, and could
not be received as the majority report.
Mr. Morton said that when the report was
sbbmitted to the committee there were seven
members present. F.ve members made a
qftorum aud four was a majority of all the
members present, and the reportVas,there
fore, the report of the committee. He did
n >t submit it as a majority report, but as
the report of the committee.*
Mr. Thurman, of Ohio, said the Senator
from Indiana (Morton) very coolly said he
made this report as the report of the com
mittee. The point was, whether four mem
bers of a committee of nine could make a
report as the report of the committee. It
had been said that this could be done, be
cause there were only seven members
present. He did not know whether the
Senate had any right to go into the inquiry
as to the number of members present when
the report was agreed upon.
Mr. Edmunds said there was nothiug in
the point of order. There were seven mem
bers of the committee, five constituted a
quorum, aud there was a quorum present.
Tho report- was signed by a majority of the
members, and, therefore, was the report of
the committee. It might as well be said
that a majority of the Senators present
could not pass a bill.
Mr. Hamilton, of Maryland, said he felt it
to bo his duty to make the point of order.
The chair (Anthony) decided a quorum
of a comuiittoe was competent to transact
business, and a majority of the number
present could make the report. He there
fore overruled the point of order submitted
by Mr. Hamilton.
The report submitted by Mr. Morton was
theu ordered to be printed and lie on the
table.
Mr. Hamilton gave notice that ho would
submit a minority report.

THE LITTLE TARIFF BILL.
Washing,ton, February 8.—The President
has signed the little tariff bill.
Boston harbor is so clogged up with
ice now-a-days that one of the papers
finds it necessary to say that it is still
open for navigation. Most of the docks
are frozen up as tight as a drum, and
even outside of the Boston light there
are vast fields of floating ice very trouble
some to vessels.
Post Office Reorganization.—One of
the most noted experts connected with
the special agency service of the Post
Office Department left Washington city
on Thursday night to inspect all post
offices in the South in the letter carrier
citie3—Richmond, Charleston, Savannah,
Mobile, New Orleans, &c. The same
agent has lately made investigations in
Northern cities, upon which Postmaster
General Jewell has reorganized so many
post offices.
The post office holds that when a letter
has been delivered by a carrier at the
place to which it is directed, it cannot
be forwarded to another address without
an additional stamp. If, however, the
letter has been refused where delivered
by the carrier,or in any way has remained
in possession of the office, the postmaster,
though not actually authorized by law, is
GRANTS ARKANSAS MESSAGE.
Washington, February 8.—Tho message
was received from the President of the
United States iu answer to a resolution of
the Senate of the 3d inst., in regard to
affairs iu Arkansan, and was read at the
suggestion of Mr. Cl ayton, of Arkansas, who
moved that it bo printed and referred to the
Committee ou Privileges and Electious.
Mr. Thurmau moved to amend by substi
tuting Committee on tho Judiciary. He
said the question involved was not one con
cerning an election, but a question of Jaw,
which was as to the right of the people of
Arkansas to change their Constitution. The
whole question was whether the Constitu
tion of Arkansas was lawfully changed; if
so, they have a lawful government there.
Mr. Claytou said a memorial ou this sub
ject was already before the Committee on
Privileges and Elections, and the question
was one concerning the election of 1872 as
well as that of last \ ear.
Mr. Thurmau said the whole matter had
better lie over for the present. He confess
ed that he was Eston shedat the message
recommendations made.
Having been read, unanimous consent was
asked that it be referred. Mr. Thurman ob
jected to any further consideration of it to
day, and i was ordered that tho message be
printed, and lie on the table.
CIVIL RIGHTS IN TOE SOUTH.
Augusta, Ga., February 8.—The Chronicle
aud Sentinel of to-morrow will coutaiu an
e litorial ou the civil rights bill, which, it
thinks, may now be considered a law. It
declares tho bill another act in the drama
of hate, aud savs the sole purpose of the hill
is to provoke disturbances iu the South,
which wiil furnish capital for tho Republi
can party iu its next campaign. In war, a
good General ascertain?, if possible, what
his enemy would have him do, and then
proeecus not to do ir.
To the attacks of the Radical party the
South must oppose a steady front of sub
lime patience. Insult must be met with
forbearance. The people who vanquished
great odds in tne battle field are now called
upon to achieve in the ruling of their spirits
greater triumphs than the taking of cities.
Let these high resolves be made : nou-re-
sistauce, except iu the courts and at the bal
lot box—no triumph to our enemies by do
ing what tiny most desire us to do by fall
ing into the trap they have set for us. This
editorial seems to embody Southern feeling
on the civil rights subject. Patient submis
sion is the watchword.

CONGRESSIONAL NOTES.
Washington. February 8.—The bill intro
duced by Mr. Spencer to apportion the Rep
resentatives in Congress for the State of
Alabama provides for districting the State
by counties, two of the eight members
allowed by tho last apportionment act being
now elected by the State at large.
The amendments recommended by the
Senate Committee on P->st Offices sud Post
Roads to Dorsey’s telegraph bill are immate
rial, with the exception of one which pro
poses to strike out the proviso that the
charges for special press telegrams shall
not exceed the rates charged to the Asso
ciated Press during the year 1875.
The Ways and Means Committee appoint
ed four sub-committees—one ou tea and
coffee, one on sugar, one on whisky aud
tobacco, and one ou taxing bank circula
tions. The whole committee has taken no
vote upon any of these subjects.
the supreme court.
Washington, February 8.—Mitchell vs.
the United States, appeal from Court of
Claims. In this case it is held that when a
party left his home iu the North for the in
surrectionary States after tlio war was
flagrant, lie could have no bona fide intent
to establish a domicile there, because in law
he could not do so. Tho presumption will,
therefore, be that he did not intend to gain
a domicile there, ind gaining none he
was not protected in his business opera
tions there as a resident; heuce the
proceeds of the cotton which he purchased
aud which was seized by the government
cannot bo recovered by him, the property
having been rightfully confiscated. The
purchase of the cotton was the same in
legal effect as if it had been purchased by
an agent sent to make it. Affirmed.

The Drought in the North and
East.—In Brooklyn there is a great
scarcity of water, and householders in
every dwelling have been notified to use
it sparingly, lest they be deprived of even
a partial supply. In towns all through
New Jersey and from along the Hudson
river the same scarcity is felt. But from
Down East” the accounts are worse still,
nothiug to compare with the present
scarcity of water having been known for
forty years. Springs which never failed
before, even in the longest heat of sum
mer, are now entirely dry. In Holden,
Mass., twenty families, lately depending
on a single spring, have at last been de
prived even of this, and must look
further for the wherewith to boil vegeta
bles, make tea and keep clean. Factories
are stopping in various places, for lack
of water and to supply stock with drink
often becomes a laborious and perplex
ing tax. The difficulty arises from the
freezing of the ground last autumn,
without any refreshment from rains, and
the light snows fallen thus far this winter
have permitted the frost to penetrate to
an unwonted depth. What may be the
effect on crops the coming season re
mains to be seen. Some apprehension is
felt on this score.
