OUR SHERIFF.
To-morrow the term of our Sheriff, H.
G. bey, expires, and be comae before
the people again for re-election. His op
ponent is a gentleman of integrity and
ability, but devoid of that experience so
essential in an executive. Mr. Ivey took
charge of bis office under the most ad
verse circumstances, and with the pro
phecies of many against him ; bat be won
his way into public favor by a atriot ad
herence to duty, and a determination to
do right. Calm and dispassionate, he has
done the fall measure of hia duty to every
man, and should he leave the office, ha
will do it with a clear and manly record.
We want such bold, fearless, honeat men;
and while we know nothing that is not
noble and good about the opposition, we
do think, and say what we think, in our
customary way, that the man who sue-
ceada Sheriff Ivey will have a most difficult
task on hand.
Th» Boston Traveler favors Mr. Dawes
for the United States Henatorship from
Massachusetts, and thinks he will have a
large majority of a Republican caucus in
his favor.
Thh movement to defeat Senator Ham
lin's re-election in Maioe baa culminated
in the formal presentation of the name of
Judge John A. Peters, of the State Su
preme Court, as the opposing oandidate,
Tho Washington Chronicle notices the
fact that there are thirty-seven Confede
rate officials in the present Congress, iu
eluding the ex-Vice-Presidont of the Con-
ledernoy, and that the number will be
largely increased in the Forty-fourth Con
gross.
THE CIVIL RIGHTS RILL.
We do not spsre the confidence of onr
Southern eotemporarios that this mis.
ehievoua measure is “dead.” Not with-
standing such assurances trom Washing
ton, we fear that the first Radical party
effort made when Congress reassembles
will be to pass it through the Home,
either as it passed the Senate or with
amendments. This apprehension is not
based upon the expressed opinion of any
man, bnt mainly upon the apparent de
termination of the Radical party in Con-
grass to agree upon a “policy” for the
future. Their agreement in caucus upon
e Financial bill was a surprising feat.
Only a desperate determination to make
a party “policy” could have brought it
about. They readily admit this. It is
just as neoessary to thsm, in a party
sense, that they should agree upcm this
Civil Righta question as upon a Financial
poHcy, and certainly they have never ex
hibited as much division upon the former
as upon the latter. The Southern Radical
Congressmen, in separate caucus, with a
boldness very unusual for them, have
made a demand for the Civil Rights bill,
with the plain intimation that the wing of
the party which they represent cannot be
retained on the sinking Radical ship with
out it. The question, in its present sus
pended state, injures the party every
where. They roost either shove it out of
the way or pass the bill in some shape, so
as to get rid of an element of weakness
and distraction.
Whether the party will go to President
Grant, or Prosident Grant to the party,
we oannot tell. We believe that either
will go to the other, if necessary to the
passage of a bill upon which the party
can be united. It is apparent that they
have alike oome to the eouolasion that
tha party most have a “policy,” and are
williug to compromise or even abandon
personal oanvietions to seoora this prime
object. Csneus is king at Washington
now, and whatevor it may decree iu refer
ence to the Civil Rights bill will be pawed
by a Radical party vote in Congress and
approvad by the President.
Thi amended constitution of New
York prescribe* a new oath for officers
qualifying after the first of January, 1875.
It requires them to swear that they “have
not directly or indirectly paid, offered or
promised to contribute any money
or other valuable thing as a considera
tion or reward for the giving or with
holding of a vote at the election at
which they uere elected,''and that they
“have not made any promise to influence
the giving or withholding of any such vote.”
A large number of the HUte officers, mem
bers of the Legislature, Ac., have dodged
this oath by qualifying previous to tho
1st innt. The Canal Commissioners and
Prison Inspector elect, Democrats, and
the 6upreine Court Judge elect, Republi
can, were among those who qualified be
fore the 1st inst., with a view to escape
the new oath. Fifty-four members of the
Legislature, of both parlioM, also dodged
the new oath by a similar course. As
they couid not take their offices until aftor
the 1st inst., the object in taking tho oli
oath was tmmiaUkable. Only think of a
Judge of tha Supreme Court admitting
that he had used bribery to Becuro his
election!

At the concluaion of Mr. Beecher’*
talk in the lecture room on Thurnday
night Inal, a Mr. Hill rose and said that
while Home men bad noen At to leave Ply
mouth Church on account of tbo “great
acaudal;” not one woman bad left it. He
declared that he said this as “a word for
tbo women of this church, who are too
timid to speak for tkem»elve«.”
S. N. Moody, well known throughout
nil the country trading to New Orloeue an
an extensive clothier of that city, com
mitted anioide on New Year's night. He
bad suffered greatly for some time from
neuralgia in the head, uud at the time of
taking his own life he wim in great agony
frouiotiogf its attacks. No other cause
can be assiguod for the act, as his btisi-
nosH wun prospering and all his relations
with society pleasant. He shot hiiURelf
iu tho bond with a pistol, and died iu-
Mtautly.
AIaj. Thomas O'Connor, just from Cin
cinnati, informed tha Nashville Union,
on Friday, that tho trustees of the Cin
cinnati Moutheru Railroad intimated to
him that the road would probably ha
loaned to tho couibiuation of Now York
capitalists mentioned in the articlo we
copied yesterday. An the plan of the
company appears to be to aeciire a dose
connection with an Atlautio port, their
control of the road will destroy our last
liugeringhopo that Cincinnati would aid
in pushing through Ilia diroot railroad to
tha Gulf on a straight lino North and
Houth.
Col. W. T. Thompson, of the Savan
nah New*, accepts with becoming diffi
denoo the distinction of oldost editor in
Ooorgia. He atales, especially for the
benefit of Col. Clishj and enrsolf, that in
18117 ho established in Augusta the first
literary paper ever printed iu Georgia, the
Augueta Mirror. It was ehortly after
that time, we believe, that Col. Thomp
son's “Major Jones' Courtship" appeared
iu piiut, and waa received with a measure
of popular favor acoonlod to but few
Koatboru publications. His hns been the
rare fortune to win deserved distinction
both in the field of iitorutureaud politioa.
AAnOM BU&UH DAUGHTER CAPTURED
PIRATES,
LOUISIANA.
Our diepetohen received before night
yesterday show that the crisis was at
haul. The Htete House in New Orleans
was guarded by United States troops, and
the people of Louisiana were debarred
aooesa to their own State capitol! The
dispatches speak hopofully of the ability
of the conservatives to organize and get
control of the House of Representatives,
nevertheless. But we would much rath
er hoar that they had resolved not to go
into the squabble at all, under the mon-
ace of Federal bsyonsts. Great indeed
has been the fall of a Slate of this Union
from its former high position, when its
legislators esn consent to pass through
lines of Federal soldiers to reach their
scats in the capitol—when they go to a
military officer for a pass admitting them
to the State House. Far inure houorable
to themselves and their State would be a
proud refusal to legislate undor militury
restraint or Federal dictation.
Information gleaned from our New Or
leans oxahangeH of Sunday enables ns to
explain some statements iu our dis
patches, which otherwise might not be
fully understood. The Radical members
of the House who were not expected to
participate in tho organization were tho
three ltopreaeutstives from Rapides and
one from St. Tammany, who wore not
elected, but wore fraudulently “counted
in'' by the Returning Board, it was re
ported in the city that tha Rapides nion
had written to their party friends that
they did not intend to put iu an appear
ance—probably because they could not
strain their consciences up to the crimo
of accepting seats to which they kuew
that they were not entitled. As to the
member roturued as elected from St.
Tammany, he was charged with an em-
bexzlement, which detaiued him at home.
The absence of these four men would
leave e Conservative majority of three in
the House.
Both parties held caucuses on Saturday
night. Ex-Mayor Wilts, of New Orleans,
was the favorite of the Conservatives for
Speaker, and their cauous resolved that
the members would use ail their efforts to
preserve the pesos. Tho Radical caucus
was divided between Estellette and Lowell
for Speaker, end it was believed that Eh-
telletto was the choice of the majority.
fie re presented what was known us tbo
“Auderson combination.”
Ferhaps dispatches received after this
artiole was written may give later news.
>au Baptiste Calibtro, ouo of Lafitle’s
reaming in Calcasieu, Louisiana,
write* to th» Galveston AV/rjtuat after
Lafitte abandoned his n tvi-nturons career,
Chsuvet, bis first lieutenant, took com
mand of tho Vengeance, and sailed into
the Gulf for a cruise. He captured the
American privatrer schooner IVriot,
bound from Georgetown, H mth Carolina,
to New York. Every person on board was
put to the sword or made food for shark*.
After disponing of tho doa 1 Chsuvet de
scended into the cabin, and soon called
out in an angry tone for Callistro and tho
male to go to him They found him in
the cabin confronted by u beautiful
woman wbo held an empty bottle in
her hand, with wbi^h she hnd struck
Chsuvet, who bad attempted to make
too freo with her. He ordered them to
tie hor hand and foot, convey her on
board of the Vengeance and place her in
his cabin. She fought the nion and did
si I she could to jump overboard. CaHis-
tre says she died a few days after thei
arrival io Galveston. She was a very
bandsorue woman, and tho daughter of a
distinguished American. Her clothing,
which was of tho finest material, wrh
marked “T. A.,” and she hud a golden
locket containing the portrait of a beau
tiful boy. On the locket were tho word
“To my wife Theodosia,” She was buried
on tbs island, a few hundred yard* to the
east of the old fort on the point, it whs
whispered among the men that Chai
had killed her because she would not yield
to bis wishes.
Callistro is vory old now. lie was the
best gunner and oar-man Entitle and
Chau vet over had. Ho was nick-named
L'Eooiier.
The American Journal of Science and
Arte contains an uccount of a curious fact
that tho miners iu Cleur Creek county,
Colorado, have discovered. It is particu
larly noticeable in tho Stevens' mine,
about 12,500 feet above the level of the
sen, on McClellan mountain. After
depth or distance of ninety foot from tho
surface, the crevice matter in which ti
silver is found,is frozen solid. Summer ami
winter have no visible effect to change it
tempor .(turn, nor is there ever any percept i
hie thaw. Pick and drill fail to woik the
frozen mass, and the only way the work
men proceed is to kindle a large li
uight against the matter, and in the morn
ing to pick at the disintegrated ore. Afto
this curious fashion the mine Ins been
profitably conducted for two years. Fr»
nine feet, where the cold wan struck, the
tunnel proceeded inward, now nearly tw<
hundred feet, and the cold is no way di
minished as yet. Other mines iu tho
negihborhood show the same singular
condition, and in ull of them Hie depth
under ground is atioh that frost canot pos
sibly havo penetrated there. The conclu
sion readied by the contributor of the
article is that this is a relic of the glacial
era. Whatever its origin, it is certainly ft
singular nnd interesting fact, and tho
method of tniuing, although profitable, is
simple and primitive as could be devised.
How Grant Fhopobkh to Inaugurate
His Third Term War.—A Washington
dispatch Hays: “Tho idea of sending
Sheti lan to the South originated with the
brilliant intellect of Grant, who, madden
ed at the refusal of tbo South to support
him for a third term, is now ready to
pursue the most malignant and unspar-
ing policy towards her people in order to
excuse his hatred. Ho ia pleased to as
sume that the South is iu what he calls a
dangerous condition, aud that the milita
ry organizations of the White League are
numerous and preparing for a general
outbreak. This stupid calumny beingas-
anrned as a binds by the Presidential in
tellect, it follows that Sheridan's mission
is to iuforui himself thoroughly in re
spect to all tho military organizations in
the South, and for tho purpose he is to
visit the ditVcreut Southern States. He
iM not to make any written report, but
get the information for use in the now
war which tho Presidents fertile imagin
ation is busily creating. In case of trou
ble, Sheridan is to take command.
“General Sherman is not to be trustod,
ho being u notorious skeptic as to the out
rage bmdnesa, and generally suspected of
affiliations with tho Democrats end dis
loyalty to the third term idea. It is said
that Grant’s retainers have got hold of
several letters of Sherman's which go far
to coutirm thi* estimate of his fealty.
General Emory ia not a favorite with the
President or the carpet baggers, but is to
bo kopt where he is for tho preseut.”

Careless English.—People who think
themselves precise iu their language will
please read and consider the following :
A lady and gentleman were crossing
our meadow, one cloudy day, when it
suddenly begau to raiu.
“Won't yon be kind enough to hoist my
umbrella ?*' aakod the lady.
“Certaiuly,” replied the gentleman.
I was astonished at this, tor if “won't
means anything at all, it means “wil
not,” and* therefore, according to my
translation, the gcutleman really had told
the lady that cerlniuly he would not bo
kind enough to hoist her umhrtlla!
But no. Even while he spoke,he open
ed that useful artiole, aud held it grace
fully over hi* companion.
“Thank you,” said she earnestly.
“Net at all,” said he, still more earn
estly. And on they went.
“Why, the fellow flatly ooutradictod
the lady,” said I to myself. “How out-
rageons.
But no, again ; for thev were evidently
on the best of terms, and the lady smiled
sweetly at hia words.
Yet the birds aay that this tort of talk
ia quite uaual among genteel human be-
logs.
Ttac New Finance lllll.
[ Washington Special (Jan. 1st) to Balt)
American.]
MetnberH of Congress now in the city
seem to think that the pu8nage of the Sen
ttto Finance Dill is very doubtful. If the
attempt made just previous to tho adj«
meat to take up (he bill and put it mi its
passage had been successful, it is thought
very probable that the bill would havo
passed, but tho drift of discussion during
llie recess, it is thought, util turn the
hard-money men ngainNt it, who, with tho
Democrats, can defeat tho bill. Tho
tainly attaching to tho intent of tho bill
is repugnant to the haul-money men am'
distasteful to both parties. In regard t
the pledge of resumption in 1871*, whieh i
relied U|k>ii to recommend the hill to the
hard-money men, it is pointed out (lint
this fesiuro ia alrepudiatcd by the infla-
tiouiats, so prominent a Republican paper
as the Chicago Inter-Ocean disposing of
that portion of the bill by saying that it
is merely tho earnest expression of n hope
that specie resumption may take place
then. The abseuco of any provision in
regard to the disposition of tbo port!
of the legal tender issue retired is also
point upon which hard-money men lay
groat stress. Enough speeches nnd
amendments have been prepared to in
sure a repetition of the protrui t°d debates
of last session, if they can be got in, but
those iu charge of tho lull do not intend
to risk n vote upon any amendments, but
will oall the previous question on the bill
as soon as possible.
