Demo crats are you ready? Let every man be on the alert. 'A vote for Whiteley is a vote to susta.n Grant and the Republican party in all tVir infamy. Mr. Bruce, a colored man, and a pres ent United States Senator from Mississip pi, is out for Tilden. Colquitt’s majority in the Second Dis trict at the election last month, was4,737. Wonder if Whitcly thinks he can climb over that hill? Thomas county has several colored Democratic eluos. Well informed gentle men predict that Whiteley will be badly beuten in that county. He who votes for Whiteley votes Radi calism in its worst form, and endorses the (irant-Chamherhiin outrage upon Sou-th Carolina and free goverv/inei'iS. A Thomas county negro amused himself One day last week by beating a brother darkey with a fence rail because he wouldn’t vote the Radical ticket.

Mr. Wheeler carried tl.rough ten bills in the interest Pacific railroads. 1 u the same se.-sinu he advocated a resolution largely in- ereasitig the Northern Pacific Railroad laud grants, but claimed that he did not know how many a^res of laud were granted It was strenuously •ippused, ■but was forced through by Mr. Wheel er. Speaker Rhine aiding him by his rulings. Mr. Wheeler also reported a bill granting Goat island to the Wes tern Pacific Railroad for its terminus The Iti'and was to be given outright, although it was considered worth $5.- OOO.OdO in cash. Mr. Knott moved an amendment re- quir ng the company to pay §2,000,000 tor irgand one member stated his wil lingness to offer the Government §2, 000.000 for the Island, and another offered $2,500,000. It. was denounced on a 1 sides as a shameless job. The bill was rejected, but was revived again in 1872 by Mr. W header, and was pass ed in the House but beat-u in the .'sen ate by tlie ad ptioti of a resolution by the House, off red by Mr Randall, of H’v .isylvania. r eal iug the bill. The Credit Mobiiier was then fresh, and Mr Wheeler did nut dare resist. Mr. Wheeler fostered Torn Scott’s Texas Pacific Railroad and passed the bill. In the 42d Congress, tie opposed the prop ositioti to compel the Pacific Railroad Companies to p y the Government such sums as were due from them, amount ing to many million dorian*. In the 4od Congress Mr. W heeler was made Chairman of the Committee on Com merce. aud defeated the proposition to make the Louisville & Portland Canal free of all tolls and charges, exeipt those necessary to pay current expenses. In this, however, he was overruled by the Senate. MLSSI8SIPPL Tne Republican leaders and the ad ministration are in a quandary about Mississippi. They want to make out a case of insurrection in that- State, too, and se .d troops to suppress it; but the pretixtis wanting.

As the Senate now stands forty-two Re publicans, twenty-nine Democrats and j: two Independents, the change-above' noted would, if no others were made, leave it f t] !e very ne.uriy balanced—thirty-eight Repub lo ans, thirty five Democrats and one In dip indent. But the follow ing States also elect new Senators this winter; Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Rhode island and Wisconsin. Of these, New Jersey, Wisconsin, and perhaps Michigan, are among the doubtful ones. If two of 'he.-e should send Demeocrats the Senate would stand thirty-six Republicans and thirty- seven Democrats, with one Independent. It will be seen, therefore, says the New York Herald, that it is by no means im possible that the next Senate shali have a small Democratic majority. If tfce Re publican managers continue to make r. bitrary arrests in the South they wil 1 probably so greatly alarm the North as- to fling even the Senate into Democratic hands. ceutber after .hey are elected, and vole by billot for President and Vice Presi dent afterwards sending the records of such vote to the President of the Fed eral Senate.

STRAW BIDS. Postmaster-General Greswell was inves tigated three times, twiceWhitewashed by a Republican Congress and once exposed by a Democratic House- The most fla grant abuse ever fastened upon the Post Office Department, that of “straw bids,’ 1 began under Greswell. A straw hid is a bid so low that it can never be fulfilled, which usually throws the contracts into Ring hands at a higher rate or compels “temparary services” at high pay. Where the highest hid was $80,049, the straw hid was in one case $000. Iu another case the highest was $150,000, the lowest was $75. This last Creswell threw out, and yet accepted a straw bid of $4,200. Oife firm of straw bidders, Barlow, Sanderson & Co., paid between $10,000 and $50,000 to influence the investigation of the Re publican House, paid one lawyer $25,000 for influence within liie Department, anti gave large sums to the Second Assistant Postmaster-Generals brother. This firm obtained one contract which will serve as a specimen. It was let to a straw bidder, though there was ac honest bid of $00,000 a year. This bidder failed, and temporary service was engaged at $700 a day. Another straw bid, Another failujy;, and temporary service again, this time at $420 a day. Finally, the contract was handed over to Barlow & Co-, without advertis ing and in violation of law, at $142,000. be given.
