Goldsmith Maid has been retired by her owners, loaving the throne of queen of the Inrf vacant. Her time (2; 14) is the fastest on reoord, and her total winnings aro upward of a quarter of a million dol lars. The New York Onstom llonse places have been filled by the President not only without consulting Senator Conkling or the New York delegation, bat notori ously in opposition to the wishes of the New Y’ork Senator and his friends. The appointment of the Hon. Ilngb J. Campbell ns United States District At torney for Dakota is not entirely satisfac tory, and the delegate in Congross from that Territory,says ho will not ho receiv ed, as broken-down Louisiana politicians are not in demand in Dakota. The nomination of Mr. Walsh as Minis ter to England wns brought about through a committee of husinose men of Plata- delpha, who wont to Washington a few days ago. One of them was Edward T. Steel, who entortained the President mag nificently when he was in Philadelphia during the Gentonnial Exhibition, and again laat May at the opening of the Per manent Exhibition. John Welsh, Dominated for the English Mission, is a Philadelphia raorebant, who haa made a large fortune in tho sugar trade, and ia about sovonty-lwo ynars of ago. He haa nevor held office outsidd of Phila delphia looal politics, but was Prosidont of tho Board of Finanoo of tho Genton- nial Exhibition. In politios ho has always been a zealous Itadioal, though not iden tified with the Oamcron gang. Jdbt before Edwin Adams breathed his last ho said, “Tho curtain is rung up,” evidently imagining himself ngnin un tho stage. Ilis farewell worda to bis wife “Well, Mary, good by; good-by, forever.” Late Saturday nftornoou ho urgod Mrs. Adams not to forgot to givo Sothoru an onyx pin which he wore, and which he valued highly. To the last momont his miud was clear and unoloudod, and ho died aa sweetly as a child going lo sloop.” The Now York Coaching Club had its regular fall parado on Suturday, eight olegaut drags boing in lino. All of thorn wore built oftor tho lntost Freuoh and English models, and in thoir ornamout and equipment oviuood a high dogroo of wealth aud tasto. Four spirited and handsomely groomed horses pawed the ground iu front of each coach. At the head of each pair stood a groom in plum colored livory and top boots, awaiting tho order to move. Tho tenuis woro driven by tho owners, Prosidont Jay, Porry Bol- mont, F. Browning, Hugo Fritsoh, tho Austrian consul, Theodore Hnvomoyor, Leonard Jerome, P. Lorillurd, and Ool- olel Delanoey Kano, The oooupanta of the ooaohea represented the wealth aud fashion of New York. Tho rente of pro- oesnion was through the pnnoipal fash ionable atreota, and attraotod much at tention. THE MEN A'I'OKIAI. QI'F.NTIWN. The ohairman of tho Domooratio Exec utive Committee, Ooi. F. G.

J * HAVEN’TITLE AN II A REltl AIIKA- III.E LETTER. A new sensation bas been produced. It is causing many of the implacahlea to demand that Congress shonld inquire into the status of the Electoral Commission, and whether tho members were gnided by prinoiples of right and law, or mere motivos of expediency. All the journals havo comments on the now discovery. It is certainly having tho effect to remove much of that romaining respect wbioh formerly attached to onr highest jndioial tribunal, after the shsmeloss decision wbioh dofeated the will of the majority of tbc people of the United States. In the Now York Sun, of Tuesday, there appears a letter from Mr. George W. Jones, of Tennessee, a prominent Con gressman from that State before the war, giving the points of a letter ho addressed to Jnstice Strong, of the United States Supreme Court, a member of the Elec toral Commission, during the sitting of that body, and Judge Strong's reply. Mr. Jones was a member of Congress with Judge Strong. They both belonged to the Democratic party, and appear to have been intimate friends. He, therefore, felt at liberty to write to Jndge Strong, and this paragraph gives the snbstanoe of his letter: When yon and I were in Congress to gether yon woro a Democrat, and regard ed as an honest man. Do yon believe that the people of Louisiana eleated or voted for tho Hayes eleotors ? To this pointed inquiry Jndge Strong answered on the 20th of February by the following remarkable letter; Washington, February 20, 1877, The lion. Ueorge IF. Jones : Mr Dead Sir ; I was a Democrat when you and I woro together in Congress. I am a Demoorat now. I hold to all tho opinions the State Bights Democrats have always held, and whiob the acknowledged loaders of tho party have avowed up to the present winter—never more olearly than in 1873 to 187S. I do not bolievo that Congress bas any oonstitntional right to inquire into State oleotions for State electors. Congress has of late years interfered quite too tnuoh with the States. The Elootoral Commission has no more power thnn Congress bas, and I think it would ho a most dangerous usurpation were it to do what the States alone have a right to do, even to enro what I fear was a great wrong of tho Louisiana Uetnrning Board. I cannot donht that suoh will be yonr opinion when yon refloat to what the as sertion of snah a power wonld lead. It would plaoo (he right of the States, re specting the choice of eleotors, at the mercy of tho Federal Government, and be tho groatost stride over made toward centralization. Better suffer a present evil than open such o door; hotter than abandon all tho time-honored principles of the Demo cratic party. I am yonrs, very respeotfully, W. Stbong. Surprises novor cease. If that reply does not iudiosto that Judge StroDg voted to sustain the Louisiana and Florida lie- tnrning Boards in thoir rasoality, what does it moan ? The exposure is right, and a Congressional investigation by Congress may bring other ngly things to light. Probably Judge Field might be iuduoed to toll what Jndge Bradley’s opin ions woro as they were expressed to him before tho Bepublioan pressure was brought to hear. He was the eighth lte- pnblioan, and tho one who daoided. HNDBHINU HAVES. THE BEI’UIILIOAN BENATOBS TO HOLD OVEB HIS NOMINATIONS UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE. Washington, October 80.—The ltopub- liosn Honatora hold a oanoua to-day, and look ground in direot opposition to tho President. Two things came up before tho Bouate, the consideration of nhminn- tious to which objection bas boen mado, aud tho rules of tho Senato under whiob Iho objections of a Senator aro fatal to any nominations from his own Htato. On both thoso points tho Kopnhlioan Senators decided to snub tho Administration. Ad hering to tho past practice of the Senate, it was decided that all nominations to wbioh objection has been mude shonld go over to tho regular session unless speaial reason existed for their consideration onrlior. Tho aotion taken npon the rule of the Souatti, as it is oalled, was proba bly duo to tho foot that a good many pro- diotioue havo been thBt it would not be followed iu doaling with Hayes' appoint ments. But was deoidod at the canous to day that it would be adhered to until further notice. Tho result of this double aotion iB that tho Now York nominations, the Louisi ana nominations, both of about eqna) im portance to tho Administration, Judge Hilliard's selection for a foreign miasion, and a number of scattering appointments, will not he touched till the second or third week iu Dooembor. The oauons also deoidod to appoint nine memhera of the joint oommittee on tho eleotornl question, wbioh make the number of Senators and ltepresentitavea equal. MIII’HEME COURT DECISION. INTERESTING POINTS AS TO THE POWERS OF STATE LEGISLATURES, Washington, Ootobor 29.—The follow ing oanae was docided in the Supreme Conrt to day. No. 343. State of New Jersey and Morris aud Essex Kailroad Company vs. Y’ard, Commissioner of ltailroad Taxation; error to tho Court of Errors and Appeals of New Jersey. In this ease it ia held that a statue of a State wbioh deolares that all charters of corporations granted after its passage may be altered, amended or repealed by the Legislature does not necessarily apply to supplements to a oharter already passed, though the sup plement he subsequent to the statue; nor does a provision in a supplement to a oharter whiob says that this supplement aud the oharter to which it ia a supplement may be altered < r amended by tLe LigWluturp apply to a contract with the company mado in a supplement passed long after. Snob reservation of right to repeal fonnd in the atatnes, unlike similar provision iu the Constitution of a State, are only binding on suc ceeding Legislatures bo far as they choose to adopt them, aud a legislative oontraot may be made whiob ia not repeatable if the Legislature so intend. It is, therefore, in any case a question whether the Legis lature making the oontraot intend that the former provision for the repeal or amendment should become a part of the new oontraot by implication. In this case said ooutraot of 180S for a specific rate of taxation is inconsistent with any such implication. There was a subject of dispute and a fair adjustment of the controversy for a valuable oonsideration on both aides. The oontraot assumtd by the reqoirementa of legislation spoke of a formal written ooDtraot signed by both parties, snd the terms of oantract that the tax shall he in lieu and satisfaction of all other taxation or imposition whatever tiy or uuder the antbority of the State, when viewed in the light of the whole transaction, do nut admit the idea of the right of the State to revoke at pleasure. Reversed. Mr. Justice Miller delivered the opinion. Mr. Jnstioe Bradley took no part in the decision. HANONIO. THE OBAND LODGE—OFFICERS ELECTED— REVISED CONSTITUTION—ACADEMY FOB THE BLIND—DULL BUSINESS IN MACON— REPORTS OF COMMITTEES. Macon, Ga., November 1, 1877. Editor Emjuirer-Hvn: The election of officers by the Grand Lodge yesterday consumed tho ontiro morning. James M. Mobley, of Hamilton, was elected Grand Master, and J. I. Wright, of ltome, Depu ty Grand Master ; James W. Taylor, Sen ior Grand Warden; J, M. Kashin, Junior Grand Warden ; Joseph E. Wells, Grand Troasnrer; J. Emmett Blackshear, Grand Secretary, and Chas. H. Freemen, Grand Tyler. Their installation took place laat evening. The afternoon was taken up in the con sideration of the revised oonstitntion and by-laws submitted by the oommittee ap. pointed several years since for that pur pose, bnt a portion was left for tbia morning, and with bnt few ohanges baa now been adopted, to be finally aeted on at the next commnnication of the Grand Lodge. The matter of increasing the dins to be paid the Grand Lodge by sab' ordinate lodges from $1.00 to $1.25 oansed much debate, bat was finally adopted. This increase was considered necessary to pay off tbo debt increased in building the Grand Lodge Hall, for which bonds were issned, of whiob $28,000 are yet outstanding. There are other obBnges from the present oonstitntion, hot I think tboy are generally desirable, and believe the inatrnment will be adopted next year with but little dissent. Many of tbe members, npon invitation extended by Prof. Williams, of the Acad emy for the Blind, availed themselves of tbo opportunity to attend, laat night, a musical and literary exhibition by the pnpila of the Aoademy. The skill and extent of learning displayed by the nnfor- tnnate scholars attest the oare and ability of Prof. Williams and his assistants. Ho is anxious to have tho addresB of all per sons who are totally blind, and if they ure nnable to pay tnition it is famished at the expense of tbe State. This afternoon reports of various cum in ittees were presented and adopted, and tbe standing committees annonnoed, the one on Foreign Correspondence being the most importont, of whiob Samuel Law rence is Chairman, and embraoeB F. M. Brooks, of yonr oity. All the business having been transacted, the body adjourned at a late hour, after a very harmonions session. I am told that business in Maoon is very dull; indeed as bad as it was in mid- snmmer. Cotton reoeipts are behind yonr town, and bnyers are feeling blue, thoir late controversy with tho ware housemen accomplished no good, bnt was rather to their dotrimont. HATES' CONTRACT WITH UOULD. TWO VISITS TO THE WHITE HOUSE TO EN FORCE THE BARGAIN WITH ZAOH CHANDLER. Special to Now York Sun.] Washington, October 30.—When Jay Gould was in tbe oity a fow days ago he paid two visits to the White Uonse and had two interviews of two hours’ duration with Hayes. Jay Gould invested $76,000 in his Frandnienc.v, and ho doesn't want to be treated aa Zaob Chandler and other patriota were who invested heavily in tbe same way. The story of Jay Gonld’s investment will benr repeating a good many times without beooming stale. It was at the time when the outlook for hisFrandnlenoy was abont as bnd na it oould well be. Indiana and West Virginia had gone Domooratio, and Ohio bad only been pulled through for the Re. publieans by the aid of the $10,000 aont to Hayes in person by Zaoh Chandler in two drafts, fao-similes of wbioh have been printed in the bun. Hayes had oome on to Philadelphia to at tend the Centennial show on Ohio's day. While there he wss waited upon by Engene Halo, of Maine, snd Secor Kobe- son, and by them told that Jay Gonld proposed to contribute $76,000 on tho condition that if Hayes was eleoted he wonld give the Union Paoiflo funding scheme a fair oonsideration. Hayes Raid he wonld, and authorized Hale and Kobe- son to Bay to Gonld that he aooepted the money on his terms. Tho visits of Gould to the White Honse were to demand the fair consideration that Hayes promised. He wants him to ssy a good word for tho jot) in his annual message to Congress. Wilt Hayes do ss he is bid?
