EDISON COULD NOr find a platinum Minle fl his electric lamp, so he takes pasteboard and . earbontizes It and makes a better light thani could be obtained fVom any other substance. The gas men are getting panicky again., lisnor Gi HIAVEN, of the Northern Methodist Church, is dead. He was a great fanatic, and a st~upendous falsifier whenever he came to speak of the Sonth. Disgraciing his profession in life we are charitable enough to hope that the Lord will be merciful to him after death Tru'iis 'rIMm IT is Alfiso of Spain who his escaped the assassin's bullet. A young man, Gonzales by name, fired twice upon the King and his youlg queen, with the usual luck, and will be garroted for his trouble. Until the International Society can secure more accurate marksmen it had butter shut up shop. A SON OF Senator Morgan, of Ala bama, trifled with a young girl's nfrbctions a couple of years ago, and a few days sliace she met him on a street In Washington and put a bullet through him. The wound was not fatal, but the young Lotharlo has learined a lesson that lie will not soon forget. THE GIFAT Iius agitator, Parnell, Is now in New York. In response to al address of natives of County Meath, he said lie would revert for a moment to more recent afthirs there. Though the richest county in Ireland, her resi dents have nevertheless been brought to a Point ofgreat suffiering. In regard to the land systems of Ireland and America, he pointed out the fact that the system here was entirely different from that at home. In Ireland, mono polists had adopted a system of rents, while here railway corporation sys tems of sales were in vogue, but he would not undertake to point out the expediency at present, or (lie right or wrong of large grants being made to railway- corporations. After dwelling a little time In the consideration of the sutfrilngs of the Irish people, Parnell said he was proud to represent County Meath, and would do all in his power to retain the confidence of the people, which lie flattered himself he now possessed. Parnell is creating a great deal of sympathy in New York for the Irish tenantry. The Maine Embroglio. The politicians of Maiue have ex hauisted thleir sup~ply of brag and bius -ter anid yet seemi indIsp)osed to come to blows. Governor Glarcelon, yield Inag to solieitat lonse,has prop~ounded a se ries of questl oiis to the Supreme Court, amid that body, being lepublicum in politics, has promptly returned rep~lies somewhat dlamaging to the Fuslonist view of the situation. As the State Constlitton gives no authority to the Supreme Court, but merely authorizc s It to advise the Governor wheni de sired to do so, it romallis to be seeni what effect its decree will have. Both the questionis and the answers are very voluminous, but we will give a brief synopsis of the most important p)oints covered. The Court holds1 that no authority is given to the Governaor and Council, when no return has been made, to order a new election. Tis rests with the muniicip~al authorities. The Ihouse should, however, admit a person who has been elected even If no returmns have been mado. The Council should allow a defective re turn to be amended and co)rrected on p~osltive proof. As to the number of Selectmen required to sign the ret urn, the Court holds that when three Select men are chosen two imist sIgn. But as regards aldermen thle case is differ ont. A majoritty of the city council is a quorum, anid a inajority of a quorum is sufficlent to pass a mneas ure. Thus of seven aldermen four -constitute a quorum, and three can act though the fourthl be op~posedl. When three nlames appear on thie re turn the law presumes that a quorum was present. It is immaterial whieth er the aldermen detailed the vote of each sep~arate ward, or merely gave * . the aggregated vote for each candi date. The enumeration of' certain votes nmder the head "scattering" is immaterial, when a plurality blects, and the total number of votes is un-. important. Returns fromn towns are invalid unless attested by the town clerk. But a deputy clerk may be -chosen in the absence of the regular -clerk, and 1118 attestation is legal, and of full effect. The Council must aet upon the returns received by the Secretary of State, and they have no authority to go behind these returns. An alien elected as fReleetman is aii official do facto and his acts are valid so fur as'the puhbile is concerned, and his title cannot be questioned collater ally. The question as to distinguish. * inlg marks oti ballots. is one for the town managers. Thme Couneil has n othing to do with it as the law says no vote must be rejected "atfter it is /received In the ballot box." When the return gives ina ftl the vote for the * iust scanicldae, and contaius ditto snarks for other canmdidates, showing that each received, the same votes the 1 on'uuld be' counted for all. The VSwde qn#tyt~ presume that signatures 'reeie unless, the contrary is .~Ro'at Altt! hearing to: the ; e~.Lstly, when tWO returns #e3rt~vd, the engt'fleet reaelm it can be corrected only in accordance with the provisions of the statute ro lating thereto. This government rests upon the great constitutional axiom All powor Is inherent in the people. To an outsider some of the polnis inade by the Supreme Court appear very sound, while others are far-fetch ed. Several very violent presuimptions a-e required. It would seem that -lic Court desires the Council either to go behind the returns or not., as would be most favorable to the Republican party. It. remains to be seen whether Blaine will bully Garcelon out of his position, and whether the Fusionists counted in will stick. Two or three have already refised to qualify. It is not our fight, and we are propared to sit with folded hands and see Blaine trying to storm the Maine State house a la hostile Sioux. If he' could get I)ltgjged with a bullet and laid up for repairs during the summer we would think the Maine embroglio not to have been productive of good results after all. TH E G.RANT BOOM. An Old Union MaIn's Opinion of Grant and the tho Southernrs who Support Him. [Ex-Gov. Per ry in Greenvte Mollntatincer.1 It seems that we have indeed Callen on evil times when Diame Itumor is trumpeting it tbrioad uicontradicted that Gen. Iat is finldilig favor with the Southern Demoeracy for a third term as President of (he American RepIblic. That lie should be the chosen favorite of Southern carpet baggers and scalawags will not sur pri any one. But that the Southern men, professng to he Democrats, should wish 1im success in 1880 is ipcomprelensible. Have they forgot telo the eight black- years that this tyrant had his iron heel on the neck of South Carolia? Do they remember that President Grant withdrew his army from the defence of the frontiers of the United States and scattered it, ill over the Southern States to sustain the rogues and scoundrels whom he had pIlaced in oflice to plunder and rob an impoverished and sufferinr )eople)? have they forgotten that he filled our State louse with armed soldiers anid fIxed bayonets to keep out the legally elected representatives of the State? Like Cromwell, he dis persed the Legislature of Louisiana, and drove them out of their hall at the point of the bavonet. Hie sent his muinions to Floi-ida, South Carolitt and Louisiana to sustain the return ing boards in falsifying their returns, and giving the electoral vote of those States to Hayes. Knowing that Til den and Ilendrleks had been elected, and might be so declared, Grait con o-mitrated a large military force in Washington to have llaves and Whicel er inaugurated President and Vice President. Whenl first elected Presi ienit, Grant received gl1s of thirty and fifty thousand dollars from wealthv men in New York and other States, mid appointed these non members of his Cabinet. During the whole term of his Presidency lie was surrounded by such corrul)t scoundrels as Belknap. Babcock, Shepherd and others, whoni be protected in their rascality and who are still his associates. It is a wvell known fact that Graunt was convicted by every member of Johnson's Cabi not of p~al pable lyin~g and treachery. Now, if these quasi D)emocrats arc in favor of electing such a man as U. S. Grant a third ime to the Presiden tial chair, in violationu of the example of Washington and all the 'other American Presidents, ther are either fools or knaves, or unplrin'cipled Swiss, ready to fight under anly bainer that will pay, and dlishioior their State. * * * * * * South Carolina is now once more under sel f-governament, and so are all the other Southern States; and God forbid that Grant and his army atnd his ofile thieves should ever again have it in their power to disturb these Demnocratic governmnents! It is all nonsense to talk about dissolving old p~arties and formitng new ones. Their principles are Iiherent In our F1ederal Union, and must alvars exist, no matter by wvhat niame political parties many be called. The Democrats are for a strict conistructionu of the Federal Constitution, and the Repiublicanus for a latitudinarIan construction of that great charter. The Demnocrats are In faivor of States' rights, free trade and no monopolies, self-governnmnt and the equal protection of the people0, an economi cal anid honest administration of tihe Federal Governmenut. T1he Re publbcan party, unmder the very name they have assumed ad dlsgraced, from that of Federalists to that of Re publicans, have beena opplosed to the rights of the States anti free trade. Thiey have always favored monopolies and legislated for the benefIt of wvealthy capitalists. Th'iey have al ways favored a p)rodigal ox pendi ture of public money and high salaries. In times past they have attemp~ted the liberty of the press amid the n'eedom of speech. They have set the military over the eivil authorities of the coun try and .disregarded personal rights and p~ersonal liberty. All the acces sions of territory to the republice have been made by the Democratic party and'bitterly opposed by the Riepubli cans. A hRMINIsCENCE OF IIOOKER.--How It came about that 8 000 Confederate soldiers cheered lustily for "Fighting~ JToe H-ooker" is explainued by the edi tor of the Rural ,Sun (Nashville, Tenin.,) who was a prisoner at Rock [slanid, Ill., during th~e severe wvinter of*186-64. The General visitedi the mrlltary prison one (day, and~ all the inates were drawna up in line for in spection). Is keen eye seemed to scan every man) from head to heel, as lhe slowly passed before them, and at the upper end of the ines the party halte. TheGeneral, half-wheeling his horse, liftod his plumed hat witi as much knightly grace as if they had all been courtiers, and a soft expres sion passed over' his thee as he said, "Young gentlemen, I am sorry, very sorry for you, and hope soon our differences will be settled, so thast you oll can return safely home again." Simple a. the expression was, it wvas so different from those they had been accustomed to )earing from th com mander of the kison that it tottehed the -hearts of the "ragged Rebs" like a current of electricIty and instantly 8,000 throftts gave a lusty chest for JoRooker.

Napoleon's Captivlty-Story of a Marine on the Bellerophon-Demeanor of the Eui peror on Shipboard. lCorrespondence of The Detroit Fr e Press I CONYits, Ga., Deceiber 29.-In iulton county, Ga., there is now liv ing an old man who enjoys the dis tinction of having guarded the great Napoleon during his short captivity on tihe 1elleroplhon, prev5ious to his departure for St. Helena. Mr. Gregg, for that is the mm ime of the ol man, is now 85 years of age, but he Is still inl the enjoy ment of good helith, and his memnory seems to be ilim)paired. In the course of 1 conversation with the veteran, sometime ago, a few facts were elicited which will doibiloss be of interest to the many admirers of the French Emperor. A 11ITISl MARINE. Gregg, alecordiig to his statement, wats one of the British marines on the Bellerophon. After the Emperor Na poleon, or- Gen. Bonaparte, ats he was studiously called by the oflicers of the vessel, came oi board and surrendered himself to Capt. Maitland, claiming the hospitality of England, lie was assigned a cabii and one of the ma rines wias always on duty at tile door. This post fell to Gregg's lot a number oftimes, and lie soon beganl to feel a tfrien(lly interest iu the illustrious prisonier. AN INTERVilEW. "IHow did Napoleon look and act?" I asked. "Ile was the grandest looking man I ever saw." replied Gregg. "le had a splendid head, dark-brown hair and a face like marble. His eves were a light blue, arnd when in fligh spirits his smile was the sweetest inagina blo." "Hie was cheerful at all times, was lie?" "Oh, yes; sometimes lie would speak to me aid to the common sailors 1ts pleasantly as you please. 11o would utter a few wor*( s of English, and then risk if what he said was correct, and when we would point out his mistakes iis well as we could, he would langh like a boy ; and then lie would turn tie tables by picking flaws in our French. Oh, he was a rare one, sir!" "Always in Food humor, then?" "Wellno, sir. Sometimes lie was very blue, and then again lie would get imad, and, Lord, sirI how lie would swear I" "Swear I The great Napoleon vwear' I" "Yes, sir; that he did i He would swear by the hour at anybody or any Lhing that ci 0 e his pat h1." ON SIPr-nOAuD. "iHow did he pass his time?" I riueried. "le road some, and talked with the Dillcers a good deal, and then he was very fond of pacing the deck. Soine ,imes lie would shut himself up in his Dabin all day, but generally lie was walking about, noticing everything. Nothing seened to escape hinm, al le was in the main very willing to talk to anybody that camie along. Some times he was very unassuming, and then again, consiocrin his position as a prisoner, aud all thalt, it did look as if lie was a little too haughtv." "Did lie ever appear at all cowed?" "Cowed I Not a bit of it!I Why, sir, he walked the (leek as though he owned the vessel and everybody oni it. Hie would get blue and mad, as I said before, but lie always carried him self grandly, and every body, from the captalin down, showed hin the great, est possible respeoct. In fact, we all took a liking to hinm, and that's the truth about It." "Whalut was Napoleon's hight, as near as you could guess?" "WoilI," replied old1 Gregg, medita tively, "they tell me that he was a little man, but I (lid not tlhink so when I saw him. It was because I was a raw youth, I supp)lose, and3 the sight of the greatest mani In the world's history dhazzlied me, Buit, then, his maner wvas always so dignified and impres sive that we never thought of his small Btature." OPINIONS OF TiHE SEAMEN. "What was the opinion of those on the Bellerophon in reference to the ni peror's future?" "Why, sir, we all thought that lie would be receivedl as Englnd's guest, and by some priision in the tro-itv be Rlhowved a pension, on condition of not again taking up arms. We had no idea of anything else, and, sir, our men shed tears of humiliation when they learned that Bonaparte was not to be permit ted to land on English soil-they did, sir, anid our officers, too, were a L'ood deal ruffled-they felt that the fritishi Government was doinig something that was mean, petty and~ malicious." "And1 you think that your prisoner was the greatest man in the world'# historyv?" "I do," said Gregg, positively. "I have read and heard a gr'at deal about thie main, and more than that I have seen him-I knew him, and it wvas imp~ossible to come in contact with him without recognizin g his greatness and his immeasureableo supeilority over other men whom the world has called great." Tis ended the conversation, and It seemed to your corresp~ondent that the eight of tis old soldier, with his ani mated description of old days, had the ofihet of brintging the distant past nearer and makIng it more tangible; at least It made Bonaparte a ppear more like a real hiumnai figure an4 less like a mythological being.
