Editor and Proprietor . MFwe from the doting aeniultaat fetttr our free-born reason." CBAS. K. JONES, wart. TUESDAY. APRIL 15, 1879. TBE HOUSK COMMITTEES. It would appear that Mr. Randall has manifested extraordinary tact in the selection of the committees : of the House. While, as a matter of course, there are some who are disappointed and displeased as to the manner in which thev were assigned, we have seen no sd-fttprnf-nt which does not AAV V assert that the appointments are gener ally satisfactory. He satisfied the Tam- manv and anti-Tammany wings of the party, the hard, and the soft-money branches, and all other clashing fac- irm Thft r.reenbaickers ! were ' dis posed of in a jhannef which s;j)lease8 them greatly, 'and even tne uepnuu- rana with t.hfi exception of Robeson, of New Jersey, seem to be entirely satis fied. Of the fifty-two chairmanships twenty-six were given to the North and twenty-six to the South, and in all respects Mr. Randall seems to have dis Ichaiged his' difficult and: exceedingly delicate duties in a manner which in creases his already high reputation as sin adroit and far-sighted political man user. ' As to the North Carolina members, they were, taken as a whole, dealt with TiTritB-herallv.Theywere given two jchairmanships, and all of them, except ing Mafrtih and Russell, were placed on two committees. Mr. Martin is on the committee on the causes of labor de pression; Mr. Kitchin is on the com- ' niittees oriptiblie buildings and on ex penditures in the naval department; Mr. Russell is on the committee on war claims; Mr. Davis on the committees on banks and currency and public ex penditures; Mr. Scales is chairman of the committee on Indian affairs, as he was in the Forty-Fifth Congress, and is a member of the committee on mili tia; Mr. Steele is on the committees on public land3 and agriculture ; Mr. Arm field is on the committees on elections and mines and mining; Mr. Vance is restored to the chairmanship of the committee on patents and is placed on that on coinage, weights and measures On the whole the North Carolinians fare well in the Forty-Sixth Congress. In the Senate Mr. Ransom has two chairmanships, Mr. Yance one, and ' both are on several leading committees besides. THE SECREST CASE, There is much complaint among the newspapers growing out of the recent decision of the Supreme Court granting a new trial to Hoke C. Secrest, the wife and child murderer. The point upon which the case was sent back was totally immaterial, yet for the sake of a mere form more than a hundred witnesses are compelled to again undergo long journeys, heavy expense and great inconvenience, and another addition is to be made to the already ; heavy bill of:cost with which Hurke is saddled. All this, however, is the least part of the just complaint against all thij delay. The blood of- ii murdered woman and child am crying aloud for vengeance and outraged , justice is de manding the punishment of this most yfoul crime. The end, however, is not ye and not yet even in sight. The next term of McDowell court, which occurs in the fl, will bring about a continuance or a change of venue in all probability. This will gain six months' time for the criminal. If he is again tried next spring, there winie another appeal to the Supreme (jHirt, and no one can tell but there may be granted anomer new trial, xne defendant is ; alleged to have.friends and relatives with ' mean's' which they are willing to spend in his behalf, and if so justice may be baffled indefinitely and defeated in the end. Oh, the laws are fearfully abused when press and people have to openly i wmandthatyjustice which the law should execute speedily and without reminder ; and we repeat what we have said more than once before, that we have fallen upon evil times when judicial methods are in such contempt that the people are forced to believe (as they are now) rapidly coming to believe) that there is no certainty of the punishment of notorious criminals except by that "species of wild justice" administered by Judge Lynch. ' Concealed Deadly WEAPONs.-The TTTil 1 1 irr j v i , - . iviinesuuro niiness nas maae the im portant i discovery that the new law against the Carrying of concealed dead ly weapons is even inore sweeping m its character than has been supposed.

Increase In tbe Eastern Complications. London. April 14. A special from Vienna to the Daily Telegraph says: The resumption of the negotiations relative to the mixed occupation of Eastern Roumelia, which stopped when the Forte proposed that instead of mix ed occupation, the powers snouia agree to the nomination of Aleko Fasha as f governor, the Porte agreeing to the pro ongation of the international commis sion for one vear. and to abstain during that period from occuping the points it has the right to garrison, has only in creased the state of dire confusion that prevailed when they were suspended a few davs ago. Germany has refused to send her commander in chief and staff, and it is stated that another power, which had a leading part in the whole business, has also rejected the offer of chief command. Russia lias also raised new difficulties." Supreme Court Decisions. Washington, April 14. In the case of the New Orleans Canal and Banking Company against the City ot .New Orleans, the United States Supreme Court to-dav affirmed the judgment of the Supreme Court of Louisiana, which, it is held, does not invade any right ot the city given to it by the constitution or laws of the United States. A decision was also rendered in the case of David N. Barron, administrator, vs. Logan Hunter, appealed from the United States Circuit Court for the District of Louisiana. The court holds that the Circuit Court had no jurisdic tion and orders its judgment reversed and the cause remanded to the State court from which it was taken. In the case of the Board of Super visors ot caihoun county vs. vt . u. Oalbraith, from the United States Dis trict Court of Mississippi, the court holds that since the irregularities on which the county bases its refusal to pay its bonds were committed by its own servants, it would be estopped frnm tatinir H vintunro nf thorn cvaii if if the recital in the bonds themselves of their conformity to the statute were not alone conclusive.

London, April 14 The Times' La hore correspondent telegraphs as fol lows : "There is no doubt that bad feel ing is growing against the British amongst all the tribes interested in Khyber Pass. They complain that the .British are acting as though they in tended to keep the pass in spying out the hill fatsnesses. Emissaries from Yakoob Khan have also doubtless been bnsy among the tribes. Our conduct and intentions must be explained, and the frontier affairs placed in the hands of the most capable officials, otherwise we may have a combination against us which at the present moment would be most inconvenient.

X .. i ' ;wMT.ir"t f j : Mornina Hour in the Mouse A Resolution Against General - legislation Defeated, WASHINOTON, TEj I sPnatfl after- the usual morning the armv appropriation bill, and Blaine proceeded to address the Senate. striking out the eight words offensive to them, viz: " Or to keep the peace at the polls,"! repealed the whole section of which those words were a part, and then re-enacted it, thinking to get erea-. it for originating it; but this law was passed in time of war and signed by; Lincoln when he had a million men under his control and could have con trolled elections without any such aid,. The purpose of the law was to insure fairness ini elections, and the Demo? cratsnow bear witness to its fitness for. toat purpose by trying to re-enact it. He derided the idea of military inter ference, andsaid there were.only 2,19 soldiers east oi umana, ana oniy laoo ; in the Southern States about 70 to every million people. The Democratic cry ot military aespousm wouia injuie . mi a i a i l. the standing or tne country aoroau, out, a European would laugh at it if . he knew there was only one soldier to ev ery seven hundred square miles ot ter ritory in the South.: This was not the real issue. The ulterior purpose of the other side was to prevent the general government from being represented by its civil officers at elections in which it was specially interested, and over which the constitution gives it lull contrpl. He would not profess to know what the President would do when these bills came to mm. out it seemeu to mm uim the dead heroes of the Union would. rise from their graves if he should coui sent to be intimidated and outraged in his proper constitutional power ..by threats hike these. The appropriate, re sponse from his lips would be, "is thy servant a' dog thathe. should do this thing?" V liuera, oi v imma, skim xiuuo re marks would not produce much effect on either the Senate or the country, It was not a question to be decided whether there are soldiers enough to dominate control elections, but whether, under and the operations of existing Jaws4t was not possible for the executive to distrib ute and use the soldiery so as to; de stroy the freedom of elections. It was not to confront, a present danger but to remove from the present or any fu ture President the temptation the ex isting law would offer to destroy the liberties of the country and erect on the ruins of the republic a despotism supported -by; amis. He argued that the presence of troops at the polls was incompatible :with free government, and this was the principle on which the pending bill was based. The Dem ocrats did not propose to shape their course as to what may or may not be the position of the President He should not attempt to take away a particle of the spinal marrow attempted to be giv et tathe President by the Senator from Maine. He would not interfere with any agency to mruse strength to nis spinal cord. The aeoate was ciosea oy w anace, oi 'ennsylvania, who declared that the single issue in this bill is, shall the ex ecutive longer possess the - power to place troops atf tne poiis. Their pres ence is a menace upon the right of free elections. This right is fixed and cer tain. It comes to us from England, and is part of bur system of laws. Its pro- ection rests with the states and the Federal government, has nothing to do with it. ;---" After an argument of considerable ength the Senators closed by saying that this legislation places a check on the military power in the interest of the people. We must restore the original rincipies trom which four years or war have diverted the government; bring the military to strict subordina tion to the civil power; petmit a free system of laws, to be based upon free ballot 'and expunge a standing menace upon tree .institutions; house. immediately alter the read ing of the journal, the Speaker proceed ed to the call of States for bills for ref erence, beginning with the State of Maine. The first response was made by Ladd, of Maine, who introduced a bill to put the coinage of gold and sil ver on the same footing-. -A-point of or der was hereupon raised by Conger, of '.MihKfOti thar. tha iTitrrf1nrtinn rvf ml la reaUired one dav's notice, and that no such notice had been given. The Speak er, after quoting several rules bearing on the subject, overruled the point ot order. . . . , t s r An appeal from " the decision was ta ken by Conger, and a motion to lay the appeal on the: tablewas made by Cox, of New York. The question was debated by Ste phens, of Georgia, who expressed the opinion that the decision was clearly right, and that at all events the object ' of the bill could always be attained by presenting a petition oa the same sub- jectA-a : course winch be : himself pui- sued this morning in regard to an ob ject of legislation which he desired to promote. Conger is now debating the question, thus indirectly obtaining his object, which is the consumption of the morn ing hour. Later. After a brief argument by Reed, of Maine, in support of the point of order, and by Cox, of New York, against it, Conger called for tellers on the motion to lay on the table. There upon Springer, of Illinois, remarking that he wished to expedite the decision of the question, called for the ayes and nays, Which were ordered, and on which Conger's ludicrous comment was that he was glad to see the delay was being occasioned -on the Democratic side of the House. The appeal was laid on the tableyeas 139, nays 75, but the morning hour was taken up in the ob jection, discussion, and in taking the vote. A motion to suspend the rules and adopt a resolution giving as the judg ment of the House that,.the business in terests of the country require that no legislation changing the law in regard to currencjr or tariff should be underta ken at the present session of Congress, was defeated by a vote of 108 to 117. : confirmations. : Among the confirmations to-day were the following midshipmen to be en signs :.Chas.
