After the remark that it is one thing to assert a principle earnest); an another . thing Vto proceed to unwise, or illegal lengths i in the execution, of that principle, the Courier-Journal says: "The Democratic party insists that certain laws which it finds upon the statute books ought to be removed. It removes them by act of Congress, and sends these acts to the Presidentfor his approval. ' They fail to meet it, and are returned with his objections. The Dem ocrats lack the two-thirds majority nec essary to set aside the veto of the Pre sident, and consequently have nothing left them but an appeal to the country. Thus far all parties are within the terms of the constitution, and the issue is squarely joined. Each party, having made its record, rests upon the justice of its cause, and goes to the people for its vindication. "The position of the Democratic party i4 wholly anomalous. In spite of much misleading and many blunders, it has steadily, moved up to a majority in the two houses of Congress, because, in the first place, the scheme of reconstruc tion sought to be carried by the Repub licans was untenable ; and, second, be cause the corruptions and excesses of the two Grant administrations made the North indifferent to the break-up of the Radical fabric in the South. ; There is no doubt that the policy of forbear ance after the election of the Demo cratic presidential ticket in 1876 great ly strengthened the hold upon the con fidence of the country which better guiding had secured for the party under the leadership of Mr. Tilden ; and it may be safely declared that, if the De mocrats had quietly settled down upon the issue raised by the Republicans in the electionat tribunal, resolving to seat the individual fraudulently excluded by the action of that tribunal from the of fices to which they had been chosen, the political spectacle now presented would be exactly reversed. "Extremism in the long run rarely pays anywhere. But with a people such as ours, it can only maintain -itself by fits and starts. The' power and prestige of the Republican party, come out of a gigantic military struggle entirely vic torious, were able to maintain the ex tremes oapopular leader like . Thad deus Stevens but a single decade. It is not conceivable -that an imitation of this by the Democrats, handicapped as they are, could by any possibility suc ceed. Its only effect is to consolidate the North; and the sooner the counsels of Senator Bayard, who has shown himself most sagacious and most courageous among Democratic leaders, ara followed, and followed obediently, the better for the party. "On each of the issues upon w hich our appear from the President's vetoes may be taken, we have the Republicans at a disadvantage. It is only wlien we imitate the domineering spirit of the Republicans themselves that we are placed at a disadvantage. This we can not afford, and, therefore, as soon a3 we have exhausted our constitutional pre rogatives, we should pass tire appropri aLion bills and go ' to tft'e'cpnntry. Safety lies o where eT& 'Ati' other rjutes lead int a dltewhicAiias been dug for qs jby the enemy and winch is y vwning just in,fiont o t the rin wary. - "The violence of the Republicans-iras baen artfully contrived tQ excite us to violence, and it has been top successful We feel it in ourselves and we see it in others; -and it is time to; put a. stopper upon the steam whistle:,The dog days are upon us and we m list act, not alk. Those who wish to shine as performers on the calliope should be sent sum marily below. The Republicans are caught in the frap- they set for us and we ouglit 'to 'draw 'the string and get away witl our .game. The President has piiV the boot oA the right leg; and we should force him to wear it." . jltf POSSIBLE. , The Louisville' Courier-Journal lam poons the New York Tribune inhuman ly.

His (hatincf is (unlike the lndian) to get a foothold on the soil, and then to mingle with the life of the Whites as servant or in the lighter trades.

R. jojies, yntfhe recent 'colored convention at Richmond, Virginia, ; decided that the race issue should be the. absorbing one; so far as they .are" concerned in that State. It was declared , that the .State should be organized on the race issue and that, to aid in its triumph,' the col ored people must form into : secret or ganizations. That was the plan adopt ed by the colored .people of the South during what 'is.. known as the recon struction periods The .result, of- that scheme should deter the colored people from attempting another of like kind. It appears that some of the stalwarts propose to keep npj the irrepressible conflict." The Indianapolis Journal thus states it : "The civilization of the South is essentially feudal and retro gressive; that of the North is modern, American and progressive. These two systems cannot permanently co-exist The conflict between them is inherent, inevitable, and must go on till one or the other shall triumph. There may be no more war or bloodshed, but the con flict will go on until it shall be settled on the enduring principles of right. STATE SEWS.

THE DOrSK PiSSXS TAB POSTOFFJCE APPROPRIATION Interesting Testimony in theSpofford Kellogg Case The Legislative Bill Not FinisTied. Washington. June 7. IIousEr-The House is in committee of, the whole on the bill making additional appropria tions for 'the service- -of theoatofflw department. -!;-'.-. Thft hill was rpnl hv .. urr.inna nnri Keifer offered as a substitute for the bill an amendment appropriating in ad dition to the amount heretofore appro- friated, $353,000 for the payment of etter carriers for the fiscal year ending June, 1880, and $70,000 for the payment of increased salaries of letter carriers for the fiscal year ending J ane "79..;- ;; Cox moved to increase the appropria tion from $353,000 to $415,000. A discussion ensued after which Cox's motion was agreed to. After further discussion the commit tee arose and the bill was reported to the House. Keifer's substitute as amended by Cox's amendment was adopted. The bill was then passed and the House adjourned. SPOFFORD AND KELLOGG AGAIN. The Senate committee on privileges and elections resumed the examination of witnesses in the Spofford-Kellogg case. The first witness, examined was Wm. Johnson DeLacy, a mulatto, who was the member from Rapides Parish of the Legislature that elected Kellogg. An affidavit was shown witness pur- Eorting to have been signed by witness efore Judge Puisson, in which he states that Smith, who was afterwards collec tor of New Orleans, threw an envelope on his desk, sealed, and that he opened it and found it to contain money. Also that members had been offered -from $200 to $250 for their votes, and that several who had been so promised had ot nothing and that he himself got 200 for voting for Kellogg. Witness denied the signature and the body of the affidavit in his handwriting. Wit ness had previously denied that he had received any money for voting for Kel logg. The affidavit will be used to con tradict him. Welsey testified to making affidavit in New Orleans at the suggestion of Ward, acting for Spofford, in which he alleged an attempt at bribery for voting for Kellegg. Witness did vote for Kel logg but never received money. After wards witness received $500 for him self and Drew, his colleague. The money came from Robertson, a Democratic Senator, through Dimas, as agent. Spofford had a sufficient num ber of votes to elect before DeLacy and his 15 or 20 comrades were bought up, but the argument used was 'that Spof ford wanted every Republican member to vote in order to avoid any cavil in Washington as to his title. Witness had never before seen the affidavit be fore the committee. It was signed "DeLacey." , lie spells his name "De Lacy,'' and' claims to be a grandson of Sir Hugh DeLacy, of Ireland. Charles Cavanoc identified the affidavit in evi dence as one signed by DeLacy and sworn to before a magistrate. Thos. Murray was re-called and swore that DeLacy told him fifteen minutes before going on the stand that he would swear to the affidavit. Adjourned. A WITNESS ARRESTED. Joseph J. Johnson, "one of the wit nesses in support of Kellogg's case was to-day arrested charged with commit ting perjury by swearing falsely before said committee, among other things that he did not dictate a single line or word in the affidavit that was offered in evidence before that committee. THE LEGISLATIVE BILL AND FITZ JOTIN PORTER. The House committee met. to-day, but did not conclude the consideration of the appropriation bills. A meeting will be held Monday, when it is expect ed that the legislative bill will be com pleted and reported to the House for passage. No contest will arise on this bill, as no political measures are at tached to it. Chairman Sparks, of the House mili tary committee, says his committee will not take action on the Fitz John Porter case at this session. The Failure of Stuart Co., Liverpool. London, June 7- The Statist, refer ring to the failuie of David Stuart Co., of Liverpool, says: '"Hopes' are en tertained that the firm of Manchester bankers which was thought to be in volved in the Liverpool failure, will be able to escape- suspension, its largest creditor having arranged to take up his bills and assistartee from banks being therefore, expected;, but the gradual liquidation of the banking firm can hardly be avoided.
