TBS fiRlST MOVEMEST. The political jobber? wlio have;be coaching Gen. Grant for the presidency flatterbJhemselyes with making won derful progress by iurning to election eering account his tour of the old world, and yet a situation,, favorable to the election, or even the nomination, of Grant may not present itself in 1880, or at any future time. Not only this, but the very fact of conspicuous develop ments of a Grant movement, so far in advance, is calculated to prevent the occurrence rof 'contingencies' favorable to its success. The rank administra tive pollution that attended the eight vears nresidencv of Grant is still fresh; in memory. It -has left an indellible stain on the pages of American history. The popular intelligence is not so lost to national pride or public decency as to be insensible to the kind of men for whom Grant had some sort of specific affinity, throughout an administration the most corrupt, and the most unblush ingly corrupt, which the country ever knew. We will allow that Grant him self was negatively an honest man. We willalla.W.thate (lid not filch and plunder himself. Jiut he had a fatal propensity for trusting nd cherishing thieves and robbers. Apparently his early days of poverty and shiftlessness had made him sordid. He seemed to carry with him into the presidency a superstitious veneration for money, and a devouring love of he ease and luxury which money'is supposed to command. He chose his society accordingly. For the statesman, the scholar, the philoso pher, the reformer, for men of science, of high character, of higlu culture, of high resolves, of high and pure aims, he had no use. They were objects of his passive aversion or active antipathy, lie associated by preference with men distinguished for nothing in particular but for wealth, or for a pisslnjae eager ness to get money by either straight or crooked ways, and an equal apitude for getting it by crooked ways. For eight scandalous years he was the central prop of toadies, sycophants, peculators, whisky thieves, blackmailers, oflice-bn-kers, and the like. Such characters are now working with all their skill and all their might the machinery of the Grant movement. Such men as these are'now awaiting his return, which is expected to be about the 1st of August, in the "hope of appropriating any formal de monstrations of national welcome as a telling installment pf, presidential capi tal. The carrion bird; jof the rotten re gime headed 1M Grant, which had so disgusted the country that Gi ant, in spite of the prestige which had secured him two elections, could not be serious ly thought of for Mepublican nomina tion in 1876, are now whetting their beaks in anticipation of Hocking ; to an other feast of corruption to be provided by the reinauguration of that regime. In view of all this, the bare possibility of the restoration of Grantism, with all that it implies, is enough to make the American eagle hold his nose with both wings an'd claws, or soar away beyond thelellCn ofjoxir political trade winds:' AN INSUFFICIENT ASSURLXCE. President Hayes declared in-hismesir i- il . 1 1 t a d- - siige vetoing. yiQ nriny-um ina? ne em? ploy mint of troops at tne polls shall not That declaration does not go to therool . go to tne root CH1S. Km -Xr- of thcmatter. Senator' Davis brings out the point clealTywhen he declares that this is a government of law, not of, pledges or promises by: the executive. The Democrats caim, and justly, that if it is improper to use 'troops at the polls, as Mr. Hayes .admits,,, the law should declare the impropriety of such conduct and impose penalties for its; wanton violation. The peace and secu rity of this government cannpt'restriiD-' on aVerbal promise of llxjj Hayes. Words are but breath, and the promises of Mr, Hayes, so signally broken in the matter of civil service reform, are too transient and uncertain to satisfy the people. Congress has prescribed by law a regulation forbidding the employ ment of troops at the polls. If Mr; , Hayes were sincere in his promise not to interfere with elections by i military5 force, he ought to be only too glad to wCTy&talize''that pie dge into a law- for the regulation of the ainjy.. The .fact that 9 h.e.ref uses to do sos positive proof that he made the promise with a mental res ervation. He would not use the troops unless the Chandlers, the Robesons and Blaines should pejsuadefhnl that the success of the Republican party depen- ded upon it. Such a mental reservation rvfis noit satisfactory to Congress. Itcan- . not & satisfactory to any American citizen who believes in popular sover eignty. If, the stability ofoui; govei-n-ment depends upon a fullnrffisiif-' f rage, the voters of the country must B6 free toxpress their opinlonsat the . foils.

Haye alwysTbeerraraisterit TT IP A FlH KS THE SO Tf8EA OA JivV I xm Harris Speaks in the Senate Tfett) Bills in the House Racy Testimony in WASHiKGTQjt vTune 9. ke s resolution to discnarge tne itecrBmthe further action, vfras laid before the Senate but postponed till to-morrow on motion or Voorhees. . ? A motion by.Burnside for an execu tive session was rejectedis to 21. On motion of Harris, McDonald's bill authorizing athe employment .of the militia and land and naval forces of the . United States in certain cases, was' taken up. Harris began at 12 :40 to read a speech in support of the bill. Mr. Harris deprecated the line of ar gument pursued by the other side, which mevitably' must revive sectional bitter-? ness and tends to obscure the real issue. He argued that the constitution gives the States exclusive authority over the qualifications of voters, leaving Con- S ess only the power to cause election be held should the States refuse to do so, this being intended as a means of self-preservation and not to be used in ordinary cases. There is no constitu tional authority for the appointment of supervisors and marshals olielectians who though nominally; acting, to pre vent fraud really engage in it in the in-, terest of party, them devotion to which is the chief ground for their selection. It is useless, he! added, for States to pre scribe qualifications for Voters 1 as its duty, as if these Officers can over-ride State laws and dictate according to their pleasure who may or may not vote. No State is so corrupt as not to be trusted with the conduct of,, its own elections. After quoting from testimony showing the corrupt practices which have grown up under these laws, Mr. Harris closed bv earnestly expressing a desire for a return to simpler and safer constitu tional methods. Adjourned. House. The House is engaged in the reference of bills introduced under the call of States. The following were among the bills introduced and referred : By Upson, of Texas, for the erection of posts for the protection of the Rio Grande frontier ; by HenKle, or Mary land, amending the laws relating to in ternal revenue stamps for cigars. At kins, of Tennessee, chairman 01 the committee on appropriations, reported a substitute for the legislative, judicial and executive appropriations bill, stat ing that it was a unanimous, report' afnd moved to suspend the rules and put the bill on its passage. The bill appro priates the same amount as was appro priated last year, and for the same pur poses, with a few exceptions, and makes many independent appropriations. The Salaries of the Southern claims commis sion are continued to May, 1880. It ap propriates $20,000 for the expense of a delegate to the international silver con vention; 150,000 lor the payment 01 salaries of storekeepers and, gaugers in the Southern States, made necessary by the increased number of distilleries. It does not contain the appropriations for the contingent expenses of the court, which are provided for in a sepa rate bill. Mr. Havley said that wliile there were objectionable features in the bill, the government could live under it and the Republicans rather consented to its passage and approved of it The bill was then passed under a suspension of the rules 188 to 21. The negative votes were given by Caball, Caldwell. Clark, of Missouri, Cox, Dunn, Elam, Finley, Frost, Gunter, Iienkle, Hurd, Rustle, Manning, McMillan, Nicholls, Robert son, of Louisiana, Slemons, Smith, of i.Tev jersey, O. Turner, Whitthorne and Wilson. McMahon, of Ohio, from the com mittee on appropriations, reported the bill making appropriations for the judi cial expenses of the government for the fiscal year ending June 30th, 1880. Or dered printed and recommitted. Reagan, of Texas, moved to suspend the rules and pass the bill introduced by Casey Young, appropriating $30,000 for the construction of a marine hospital in Memphis, Tenn. Agreed to. Ryan, of Kansas, moved to suspend the rules and pass the army appropria tion bill precisely as it was reported on June 6th from the appropriation com mittee by Clymer, of Pennsylvania; AtKins, of Tennessee, moved to ad journ. Agreed to 105 to 100; nearly a party vote. v THE SPOFFORD-KELLOGG CASE. The committee on privileges and elec tions resumed the SpoffoixfKellogg in vestigation. Murray and DeLacey were again on the stand but their testimony was unimportant. Members of the com mitttee compared DeLacey's signature to the affidavit with his name as writ ten on separate pieces of paper, but their conclusions differed. The sergeant-at-arms reported that eight witnesses had been summoned on each side. The chair suggested that the examination be limited to that number, as it might be considered proper to send a sub-committee to New Orleans to examine wit nesses to save expense. Jules Seveignes, the next witness who testified, was a member of the Packard Legislature, and present "in the joint conventionthat elected Kellogg to the Senate and voted for him on that day. An affidavit was read, signed by witness, stating that he was not present in the Legislature in JanuaryILwhea Kellogg was elected ior tne long term, but voted for him next day. Witness said the affidavit was not true and the parties who in duced him- to make it knew.it t& be a lie. After much pressing witness men tioned the name of Drovett and Cava nac as persons who were induced to swear to a lie. ' Covanac, Thos. Murray and J. Welder were among those who influenced wit ness to make the affidavit. Covanac said he should have everything he wanted. Q. You made it to get the sugar? A. No: but to asceitun how all the affidavits were manufactured I didn't believe what they said. tSZ Q. Do you not think It is unmoral to swear to a lie? - ? . A. That depends on circumstances. It is hot when men want to bring about how affidavits are obtained, i-, "Witness said he had been 'employed 2 the New Orleans custom .house out resigned to come here as a witness Cross examined-by Merrick: "Had made a second affidavit for Elderl who said ; he . would , pay nothing. -Told Covanac he was not present at the Kellogg election but was locked up in a room. - i .; - " -t?i Q.
