The report is somewhat sensation- |
al, in that ai the very beginning it >
declares that the entire Soulh Carolina
registration and election laws
are unconstitutional. The basis for j
this declaration as stated in the re- e
port is that the State law imposes a 11
y number of restrictions upon thee\- '
efeise of the right of suffrage which J
are in eonllict with the Stab- Consti v
tution. Whereas the Constitution c
deprives a person of the right of
suffrage only upon conviction of J
murder,'felony, duelling and treason (
The State law prohibits the exercise t
of the right of suffrage bv persons /
who were entitled to register in 1SS1 ('
and neglected to do so; bv t hose who
moved into the State and neglected
to register at the first ensuing regist
rat ion; and liy those who so'd their 2
registration certificates for valuable v
consideration. .
The report states a number of no 1 N
groes have bean compelled by pover !.
ty while waiting for the maturity of
the cotton crop, to negotiate their *'
certiticatoH to traders who immcdi- 1

negroes are permanently disfrun-1 '
ehised.
. After laving down this proposit ion J
the report proceeds to diseuss Ilie h* |
gal aspects of the election from the
usual standpoint, and recites the
fact that in certain precincts what
amounted to an educational test (and
. V
therefore an illegal test ) was imposed
hy lettering the ballot boxes, which 1
were separate in the case of each of- i
ficc, and that the voters were deceived
hv an intentional shifting of the N
? j
boxes so that the managers of the
election were able to throw out all '
of the ballots cast in wrong boxes. '
There was also, says the report, evidence
of ballot box st ufling.
Summing up, it is found that taking
a position most favorable to tinsitting
member, contestant Miller
had a majority of 7"?7; while, if the
law is strictly followed, his majority
will reach 1,1 IX.
Wilson of Missouri will prepare a
minority report-.
Oomstock opened the discussion
with an argument in favor of the
claims of the contestant.
('lisp presented the claims of the
con tost ee. After reviewing portions
of the evidence, he referred to the
slim attendance in the House. The
majority report said that the election
in the Fourth District, of Alabama '
was a farce. What wu* this? '

(ion was this? llow many ineinhcrs '

was partiality of the election committee.
This was in contrast with .

llergen suhniitted an argument in
avor of MeDuflie's right to the seal.
(hites, in supporting Turpin's
lai ins,said that it had become too
onnnon on both sides of the House
imply to take the reports that came
rom the committee on elections, and
dindly to follow them without inestigation
and without seeking to
aiow the truth.
Unwell defended the committee on
lections from the charge of part kilty,
and in allusion to Crisp's noiniintioii
of Turpin, said that in the
lection here there would bean lionst
count and no stuffing of ballotloxes?a
thing which bad not taken

Terror is I0|ii<lcm it*.
"A p'ague on all cowards!" says
shakespeare's Kilt Knight, himself
lie 1mm ideal of a bullving polroon.
Hut is it just to couple infamy
villi coward ice? Would any liiiin
>e chicken-hearted if lie could he
)therwise? Does not every frightenm1
fugitive from danger hlusli as lie
'11118?
It eav not he fairly imputed to
he dastard as a crime that his 1
torves quiver like aspen leaves when
ic hears the immediate hullet wliizdng
by, or that the sight of sheathess
steel makes the perspiration start
From all his pores, lie ironfd face ;
he whirlwind of battle if he could
jut it whisks himn'oiind like a weathercock.
IHs reason may tell him
that his hack is as broad a target as
liis breast, and that he is as likely
to be shot retreating as advancing; j
indeed, more likely, for even a brave
man can take a steadier aim at a living
adversary than at a furious foe
rushing upon him at the "doublejuick.M
Hut instinct is stronger
than reason in the craven, and all
his locomotive muscles arc at its
command. j
Under these circumstances, ought;
i military man who shows the white j
feather in the presence of the enemy '
to he shot therefor? lining, as Kail j
staff says, "a onward upon instinct," ,
is he morally responsible for running
away?
Perhaps not. Nor is it for the
net itself that he is doomed, hut hecause
of its consequences. Terror is
epidemic. It is more rapidly caught
than the small-pox, and spreads more
rapidly. A Captain is smitten with
it anlfttominunicatcs it to his company,
the regiment catches it from
the company, the brigade from the
regiment, the corps from the brigade,
the whole army from the corps, and
i.1. _ '4 ' *
runs a groat i tattle is lost, and perhaps
a groat cause endangered or
ruined.
It will not do to adhere .scrupulously
to the abstract principles of
justice in such cases. The offense I
must be measured by its results!
The event and not the involuntary
act which produced it, arraigns and
condemns its author. The punishment
which seems cruel is absolutely
necessary, and therefore right.
Not/ because be is a coward, is the
cowardly soldier done to death, but
in order that disasters more terrible
than the shooting of a thousand dastards
may bo prevented by bis public
shame and dishonorable doom.?

The opening chapter showed a
man a "solitary horseman"- traveling
a lonely road through the
night and storm, lie crossed a roaring
river, and saw by it llash of light
ning it large house, set a little back
from the 'mad, with wind blown
trees about it. The blinds of Die
house were colored; no light, issued
front it, but suddenly, its the traveler
looked, t Here came a w ilder gust
of wind, the shut tiers of one of tin
windows was blown violently hack,
and the traveler had a glimpse o(

traveler could recover himself a

startled his horse. It took a few
minutes to ipiiet him, then tin
horseman dismounted, opened* the

to the house. His knock on the
door was answered almost at once
by a black servant, who showed

around in amazement. No sign of
murder or violence was here. Nei

Sueli is the demand made by the
Farmers' Alliance throu gh Senator
Vance. Senator Stanford, knowing
the great extent to which Western
farms, and indeed the farms of other
States, are shingled over with
i nor tirades, has introduced and is
seriously supporting a hill pro\iding
for the lending of mom \ h\ the
government on farm mortgages, the
money to lie printed expressly for
the purpose, and made legal tender
for pub' and private debts. The
Mc('lannn\ bill, which eloselv resembles
the Stanford hill, provides
lor a loan to the people of SI,Sou,(K?0,()00
at ! per cent. After SenVance,
with his Farmers' Alliance
bill, and Senator Stanford, with his
farm-mortgage hill, comes Senator
Ingalls, who introduce. Mo r. 11. -f
of ilu* Wage-Workers* I'olitieal Alliance

for two hundred times tin-amount
paid hy the tenant during the pro(
reeding month, which .-houhl con
( stitutea first mortgage on the property
in favor- of the t niled States.
This is to he considered as full pav*
r . .
t uient to the owner, who is to he 1111j
prisoned for life if lie refuses to accept
the warrant as legal tender.
^ The tenant is to repay the governI
inent at. the end of thirty years. The
idea of this summary method of
abolishing landlordism seems to he
taken from the ^Vshhourne act foi
the relief of Irish tenants, hut it
, goes much further. The Ashbourne ]
act does not make the sale compulsory
on the part of the landlord, nor 1
does it \i*nt him wit h Mich a tronton j
, dous penally for refusing to part
wilji hi.s property. It. bases the
price of the land upon the yearl\
. rent, makes a reduction on that rent
and gives the tenant forty-nine years
to repay t ho government t he "money i
( that ha.- heen loaned him, adding interes!
at the rate of four percent.
, Ihit every Irish tenant has a certain
property right in his farm other
, than that. of the landlord, ami may
. t: ! .1 . ?
Mi.-^jusr hi mar right to another
without asking the landlord's per-!
mission. This tenant right is the
(government's security in lending t he
money to.buyout the farm in fecsimplc,
and the government ha- further
security in the unexhausted,
revenues derived from t he demit ion,
ali/.tition of the Church of Kugland
in Ireland." It will he observed,

Political Alliance of Wash.
ington is niueh more thorough than
the Knglish Ashbourne hill,although
, it may he possible that the AnieriI
can landlord who is to be dispossess:
ed gets a fair value for his property.
We cite those several hills now be.
lore Congress not for the purpose of
comment, or with am belief that
t either of them will pass, but as
showing how the lavish expenditure
of government money in some directions
is leading to demands for further
expenditures in others, and how
