We are all rejoiced over the failure
of the Foroo biU, and the rejection of
Plnchbaek' claim to the Senate. The ■
failure of Senator Morton to have
Brook* recognized ns the legal Gov
ernor of Arkansas ha* gratified us,
for ttnfgued to Orant that his isn't y
vvere to ft certain extent, going back
on him ; yet Grant has met with no
jiosltive rebuke from his party. Con
gress hasndjourned without speaking
out in tones of earnest condemnation
a gal ust the policy Grant pursued to
wards Louisiana, that it might boa
warning not to interfere in swell a
manner during the recess. No doubt
Grant will toko their silenoo as either
an approval of his course or as a tacit
consent for him to manage the Gov-
ernmeut to suit himself.
There ts only one little job that
Grant and his party engineered
through while the nation was dis
tracted on Louisiana nnd Arkansas
affairs. He made a full-fledged (state
out of a barren Territory, and now
Colorado sends two Senators to the
rcsoue of the part y that transformed
her into a State. There is material
for several more such States in New
Mexico, *or each day the nows comes
of moro robberies and murders
among her people. The muteriul is
good enough for party purposes, if
they will only consent to be used.
Younw Wen's Christian Association.
The recent convention of the Young
Men’s Christian Association hold in
Augusta, developed the great amount
of good this organization is accom
plishing in the cause of religion and
morality. We had no idea thut the
organization was so strong in num
bers and their work so varied. It ap
pears from tho reports furnished the
convention, that at the present time
there are 950 different Associations,
and that they own property to the
amount of $2,500,000. They keep con
stantly employed, for tho exclusive
work of the Association, seventy-five
men in the capacity of General Secre
taries. Each organization is entirely
independent in the manner of devis
ing its own means and plans for car
rying on their Christian work. The
Association has greatly Increased in
Georgia during the past three years.
The object of tho Association is to
roach young men with-Christian in
fluences, and in doing so, save many
who havo no home or family associa
tions.
A surprising fact is that none of
these associations havo become de
nominational, but welcoming us active
members all young men, no matter
to what church their preferences in
cline thorn. They have brought
young men together socially, opened
to their knock reading rooms tilled
with pious associations and innocent,
amusements; giving thorn the benefit
of lectures, musical entertainments,
and otherwise changing the young
men with whom they come in con
tact, into social and religious beings.
This, however, is not all for which
this noble association exists, tor un
derlying is a steady effort to culmi
nate their membership into a strong
and perfect harmony with tiro church
of God.
It is a good work, and wo would
liko to hear of a similar organization
In ovory town in Georgia. Before
tho war there was an association of
this nature in Columbus, but it lias
been dissolved, tho remnant of it
holding together in weekly prayer
meetings at the different churches.

Over Zealou* la the 4’au*<‘ ol lllsotry.
Several days since we made editori
al mention of the proposed impeach
ment of a Mr. Thorne, of tho North
Carolina Legislature, by that body,
f on a religious test. Wo hardly
thought the matter would go as far
as it lias, but it is a fact that Mr.
Thorne lias been expelled from the
Houso on account of a pamphlet ho
published, which is objectionable to
many Christians. We never thought
that such an act could bo committed
outside of Massachusetts. Thorne
was as moan a Radical uh ever dis
graced any State, and was turned out
by his brother rascals. Admitting
Thorno guilty of writing such an ob
jectionable pamphlet, wo would like
to know what right the Legislature
of North Carolina, or of any other
State, Ims to inquire into tho religious
belief of any or its members, or ar
raign them for trial. Tho doctrine of
our forefathers taught us that free
dom of personal opinion, and religious
belief, was tho palladium of Ameri
can liberty, and the pillars of our
government. No State in the Union
ever burned witches but Mossaehu
eetts, and now it is reserved for North
Carolina to take tho lead In expelling
men from government offices on ac
count of their religion.
■ii i ■ hi. i... I l
A hoveltx ifl the mode of hanging
criminals was recently introduced at
Newgate, England. Instead of erect
ing the usual scaffold aboveground,
a pit was dug in the soil, anil a trap
door made level with the ground
opening into the pit. Tho Convict
was pinioned by the executioner on
the top of the trap, and at a given
Signal the drop foil, and tho unfortu
tnato ceased to live.
It is reported that Secretary Fish
lias all along refused to settle the
Tirgiuius matter with Spain, because
■the Spaniards persisted in valuing
negroes lower than white men. They
paid the English $2,500 for white vic
tims, nnd $1,500 for negro victims.
Grant and Fish thought a good
healthy negro victim was worth more
than that.
A toiilcniiitllilc Ad.
Tile expulsion of the young cadet,
Gordon Claude, by the faculty of tho
Naval Academy at Annapolis, for Ills
refusal to fence with a colored cadet,
was contemptible in the extreme.
They knew full well that he was a
Southern young man, reared in the
South, with ull of his sectional ideas of
social equality, and that to force him
to come ou the social level with a ne
gro was simply an insult to him. He
had tlie manhood to refuse to bend
himself to tills little meanness, and
for it, they were cowardly enough to
expel him. They reply that North
ern youths make no such objection.
We answer, tlie youth of tho North
are differently educated, and the as
sociation with the negro to them
might be more congenial than to one
of higher instincts and healthier so
cial ideas. Tlio truth about the affair
in question is, that it was a small at
tempt upon the isn't of the Faculty,
nnd some of their friends, to degrade
a Southern boy; and in attempting
it, they found his metal an over match
for their meanness and hate. He is
receiving the congratulations of his
friends in the South, and they are be
■ ing censured at the North, and de-
I spised at the South.
There can be no question on the
I unconstitutionnlity of such a pro
j feeding; but the spirit that prompts
it to much to be regretted, and if it
jiervaded the country would bealnrm
ing.
When the Pilgrims sought refuge
in this country, it was that they might J
worship God in their own manner, j
and according to the dictates of tlieir
own belief. In this latter day of the
nineteenth century, it is appalling to
see men set aside on account of their
faith. It is wrong upon principle,
and does harm to the church. But
there is a harm such a principle can
do individuals and tho political world.
If sueli a course as lias been pursued
in North Carolina be right, or sanc
tioned by law, why tlie necessity in
our legislative bodies of contested
elections? Why not some pious mem
ber of tho majority rise and propose
an expulsion because the objection
able man is a Methodist, a Baptist,
a Catholic, or a Jew, as the case may
be? Such a test applied to represen
tatives of tho people is wrong, and
nothing even flavoring of bigotry was
ever known, except in Now England,
where their religion is worse thou
tlieir politics.
Between those members of the
Georgia Legislature who wanted Joe
Brown to monopolize tho convict
labor of the State and those who
didn’t, the solution of the important
question as to the best means of dis
posing of the constantly increasing
penitentiary material wus defeated.
After all, nothing is gained by delay.
Our legislators will have to solve the
problem some day, and it would have
been far more graceful to have dis
cussed tho question fully and fairly
than to havo wasted time in chang
ing lines ami granting licenses to ped
dle.—,Vue. Notes.

The following Is a correct state
ment, carefully compiled from tho
otUcial returns of the election hold in
Louisiana in 1872. It will be observed
that Gov. MoEnory received 50:1 votes
more than Sheridan’s majority over

ence from this showing, and from the
seating of Sheridan by the House, is
that MeEneryis not only Governor of

Able Generalship of the Democrats In
l lie IfouNC.
Old politicians admit that there
never has been better parliamentary
strategy than that exhibited by the
minority in lighting the Force bill.
The grand object was to delay the
passage of the measure so long that j
it could bo easily beaten in the Sen
ate. This tho opposition succeeded |
in doing, although they were in a j
small minority, and were supposed j
to be gagged by u rulo prepared by
the Radicals for just, such emergen-1
cies. Cessna and Butler’s rule was !
prepared and adopted several weeks j
ago, and the whole Radical crowd |
was serene in the idea that they
could
. BIDE ROUGHSHOD
over their opponents. Yet the in- 1
stunt the arrogant majority came in !
with the infamous Force bill, the
skilled and stubborn leaders of the j
opposition developed now tactics, and
practically beat the stupefied lubbers
who were in such heavy numerical |
preponderance on the other side, j
Tlie majority expected to have the
bill wheeled through, so that, it could
be read in the Senate by Thursday.
Tills, with the longest possible delavs
permitted in the latter house, would
have made the measure available for
final consideration by Saturday; and
it would then have been impossible
for tho Democrats of the Senate to
have talked four days 'and nights on
a stretch, and the infamy might have
BECOME A LAW.
Tho superior strategy and adhe
siveness of the House minority has
prevented all this. Instead of reach
ing a final vote by Thursday, the
Radicals, iu spite of squirming, curs
ing and the application of what they
imagined to be a perfect gag-rule,
were held on until after midnight of
Saturday. Hour after hour, for sev
eral days in succession, tlioy imag
ined they were, just at the goal of
t heir fierce partisan desires, only to
be aggravated by Randall and Beck
with some totally unexpected move.
"It was tike a gigantic game of
chess,” said a member of the diplo
matic corps, who had followed the
affair from beginning to end.
THE SUCCESS
of the minority and its leaders in this j
great struggle may lie imagined, j
when it is known tlieir tact, energy
and persistency have won the praise
or all prominent politicians of both
parties.
Morton said to-night that, the Dem
oerats had so managed the Force bill
that there was no use trying to do
anything with it in the Senate.
Gen. Forrest, of the late Confeder
ate army, made a speech ut Mtildon,
Tenn., on the 4th inst., in which he is
reported to have said that ho “be
lieved there would bo another war,
and his policy would be to raise tho
black flag, with the skull and cross
bones on it, and not leave a Republi
can, white or black, alive in the
State.” We are, inclined to disbelieve
this report; but we have no doubt
that Gen. Forrest is capable, like
many other white leaguers, not only
of entertaining, but of giving utter
ance to, exactly such sentiments.
While they are hot calculated to in
crease his popularity in the North, or
to do anything except to revive un
pleasant memories of his career dur
ing the war, it is probable that they
would serve to recommend him ns li
leader to the white malcontents of
the South. I Vnxh. National Uepub.
With the following exceptions, the
ahovo might bo true;
First General Forrest was not at
Multlon, Tenn., on the Ith inst.
Anxious. There are scores of ap
plicants for the position of “financial
agent under tho recent resolution of
the Legislature. It will be difficult
to find one with the necessary quali
eations, and doubtless still more to
get one into the Treasury after being
appointed. “Honest Jack Jones” has
a head of his own, and as he defied
tho whole Legislature he will hardly
be frightened by the orders of the
Govern or. —Gnffin News.

Yw York Letter.
New Yoke, March 3, 1875.
After bidding you adieu, wo got
on board tho train bound for Savan
nab, and arrived safe and well next
morning, at good breakfast hour. At
11 o’clock wo went aboard that popu
lar steamer “Sun Jacinto,” Captain
Ilazzard, Commander; shortly after
we out loose from our mooring and
headed for the briny deep. The ship
was well laden, and about one hun
dred passengers besides the crew of
the steamer “Life Brigade,” which
was wrecked off the Bahama banks,
Florida, and those of the ship “Can
terbury,” which was burned at tho
mouthjof tho Savannah river. Among
the notables were, Dr. Newton, of
grange notoriety, and the belle of the
boat was little Miss Marie E. L.
Bitiglev, of New York, who enlivened
us with many beautiful songs. The
first two days at sen was very pleas
ant, at about midnight on the third
day a north-easter set in with wind
and rain, and a heavy sea rolling.
We all began to wish we were at
home; few made their appearance at
breakfast next morning. During the
day the storm increased and nearly
all the passengers concluded that
they ought to contribute something
to the little fishes; Dr. Newton led
off beat ifully; toward evening I found
! that the passengers were feeding the
| little fishes so liberally that it would
be selfishness In me not to contribute
a little also. You know we never get
sea-sick, but we have the consolation
of knowing that we bountifully sup
plied the little fishes in the wake of
our vessel, for an hour or more.
We arrived in New York about ~ix
hours inter than our calculations.
Snow and ice in abundance; snow is
now falling. What a contrast from
the balmy climate I loft, a few days
since.
The merchants of this city have
laid in large and beautiful stocks for
tlie Spring trade. We visited several
of the leading houses, among them
A. T. Stewart & Cos.; Evans, Beak &
Cos., and Wm. H. Lyon & Cos. The
finest stock of hats, straw goods, etc.,
I found at Kingsbury, Abbott & Hu
lett’s, 554 Broadway. They are busy
as bees, filling orders for tlie South.
The theatres are in full blast, with
crowded houses.
The hotels begin to show signs of
life, by the constant arrivals from the
Soutli and West.
