We believe it was President Grant who said the best way to get rid of a bad law, was to enforce it, and the ac tion of the United States Supreme Court the other day in declaring the validity of certain laws of Congress, thus striking down the rights of the States, furnishes an instance of how odious these laws are, and suggests their repeal at once. The appointment of United States supervisors of elec tions and spepial deputy rnarshals un der sections 2,012 'and 2,021 of the Re vised Statutes has already been an ef fective agency of fraud and intimida tion, and it is capable of immense and widespread mischief. It places in the hands of the administration a potent and most dangerous means of inter fering with the popular will as it seeks expression at the polls, and it offers ready opportunity to unscrupulous ser vitors of the party in power to materi ally modify, or even reverse, results.. It is susceptible of being made a meth od of bulldozing voters altogether as effective as the presence of bayonets at the voting places, and perhaps more so. As the sections of the Revised Statutes hereinbefore named now stand, there is hardly any check upon the pow er of partisan intermeddling with elec tions by government officials. Large numbers of these supervisors and deputy marshals may be appointed and sent into the field for electioneering pur poses. Clothed with the national au thority and invested under recent decisions of the United States Supreme Court with immunity against punish ment fox violation of State laws while in the discharge of their duty, these hordes of political strikers may be turned loose among the people just be fore an important national election, and there is no help for it as the law now stands. The large pay allowed these supernumerary officers, and the great number of them who may be -legally appointed, afford the party in power a corruption fund of the most alarming character. The bill agreed upon by the House committee on the judiciary to regulate the number and pay of supervisors and deputy marshals appears to be wisely de vised to remedy, to a considerable ex tent at least, the evils of the election laws. One deputy marshal at a single voting precinct ought to be enough ; $1.50 a day ought to be sufficient pay for them and for the supervisors ; and three and six days respectively ought to be ample time for them to receive pay for their peculiar services. It is difficult to see how there can be any objection to a further provision of the bill which prohibits the arrest or imprisonment by these officials of election officers until the close of the day of the election. The power to tear them away from the ballot boxes, of which they are the sAyorn custodiaus, while the elec tion Is in progress is extremely perilous when committed to cur rupt and conscienceless political hirelings. The existing law. is capable of this abuse, and it opens a wide door in the hands of unscrupul ous men to fraud in ballot stuffing. This door should be shut and locked at once. The authority for rim oval of the cases decided by the Supreme Court from the Stale to the Circuit Courts of the United States is based on section 641 of the Revised Statutes, and this section is the sum of the acts of Con gress : 31 May, 1S70, c. 114, ss. 16, 18, v. lfi, p. 144. 9 April, 186G, c. 31, s. 3, v. 14, p. 27. 3 March, 1803, c?81, s. 5, v. 12, p. 750. 11 May, 1866, c. 81, ss. 3, 5, v. 14, p. 46. The authority for the general appoint ment of supervisors of elections is based on sec. 2,012 of the Revised Statutes, and this in turn is based on A 28 Feb., 1871, C. 99, s. 2, v. JO, p. 433, and 10 June, 1S72, c 413, s. 1, v. 17, p. 348 The authority for the appointment of special deputy marshals is derived from sec. 2,624 lievised Statutes, which 4 based on: 8 Feb., 1871, c. 99, s. 12, v 10, p. 437. Now, as we understand this question, the Supreme Court fiast merely decided that these acts of Congress are valid, as interpreted by a majority of the judges, Witbia. the purview of the con stitution. i We may argue therefore that the judicial decision by a majority of the court affirming the constitutional ity of these statutes by no means pass es upon the wisdom or expediency of -these laws. It simply declares that they are not in contravention of the organic law, as found in. the constitution, but a very large number of the people in the United States agree with us that they are injudiciku, pppressNe and even in violation 6f tfiesplrit of tl& constitution if not of the letter of that instrument. If thia be so, then the recent decisions of our very highest judicial tribunal f urnisheft fcoagrpss with the very best argument'' ftfr theif repeal:' 1?ut it is argued these are Republican laws, and while a Democratic Congress might be willing jty;wv tot their repeal, 4 re publican president, clothed in the habil iments of office, tb.rough.the 8 to 1 vote of the electoral .commission, rayjht not be willing to 'approve' the act of Con gress. Vex j HellietaTjerorocTattcTm gress doits duty and in the event &t veto, let;the appeal be made to the pecf pie of the nation. The closer the lines of the issue .are. drawn .the, better. If we are WMt" twaffrom the ancient landmas4i fcuV i&feriime, a lthas existed for a hundred years, tne the people find it out the better. sooner Alexander H.

'Mr. Stephens has been petted i until he is Ipoiled badly wt&fyVfft& SAX FRAIVCISCO SAND CIANS. LOT POLITI- It may sometimes be doubted wheth er universal suffering is a blessing or a misfortune in some communities. The election of Kalloch, through the influ ence of Kearney and his "sand-lot" poli ticians, as mayor of San Francisco, is a very strong c;ise in point. Under the new city government fierce and uncom promising war was made on the Mon golians, who had taken up their . resi dence in 'Frisco, and a very bad state of things exists there. .. r v To protect themselves, the better class of people have organized vigilance committees, which to a certain extent propose' to he law unto themselves; These committees are going about the work of restoring the good name of their city and rescuing it from the dan ger of mob law in a way that compels admiration and inspires hope of their success. The Citizens' Protective Un ion seems to have all of the good and none of the bad characteristics of the old-time Vigilance committees. Its manifesto breaths a spirit meet for troublous times, and it is issued none too soon. Neither a threat nor a dis play of meaningless rhetorical fire works, its purport is so plain that the wayfaring man, though an illiterate vagrant, may understand from it that the patience of a long-suffering people has been tried long enough. The .ob jects of the Union are such as all good citizens must desire to sec furthered, and although there is a dcad-in-earnest air about the way they are staled, it is frankly said that the means to be used are within the law and of a peaceful character. In this contest with the re fuse of a conglomerate population un der the leadership of characterless and desperate Communists, the respectable portion of tbo community will have the sympathy of the whole country, i nl the measures taken by the general government to aid in the good work of keeping lawlessness in subjection will have the emphatic approval of all thinking people. The New York Journal of Commerce talks plainly thus: "If this country cannot stand the importation of ground wood in its crude condition, for the product of printing paper, because two congressman who own a patent and three or four others have a fat monop oly of the business, are likely to ob ject, then the newspapers must put up their price and the people submit to the exaction as best they may. The en ly tiling we ask is that the issue shall be clear and the result decisive. If the people side with the monopoly, and the House of .representatives stand by its; two wealthy manipulators now in con trol of the paper market, we wish to know it at once and have done with tne struggle until a new congress is elected- We hope some member will move the question and put it to a square and open test" In the death of Win. Ruffin lawyer, of Ilillsboro, eldest son of the lamented Judge Ruffin, the State loses" one of its greatest legal minds. Having had the misfortune to lose a leg in early life, he retired from the active practice of his profession, but was an ardent and de voted student of the law, and his opin ions were held in the highest esteem by the fraternity. He was a gentleman of the old school, a man of fine culture and delicate sensibilities. A German paper in Missouri has hoisted the name of Hon. AdolphPantz for President, which leads the Boston Post to nominate Carl Schurz for Vice- President, on the ground that Pantz and Schurz will go well together. These nominations, it is presumed, are "on the ground that the constitutional provi sion excluding foreign-born citizens might as readily be disregarded as any other. ? !

Mr. Kellogrff wants a, CJomuittiee-- Numerous Bills and Resolution Tne Deputy MarIial Quesiioa, & Washington, March 12. Senate. Vance, from the district committee, re ported favorably the bill for the pro tection of the IJotomac luver fisheries. Placed on the calendar. Williams presented a joint resolution of the Kentucky Legislature instruct ing ' the Senators from Kentucky tr3 urge the passage or ..tne Uin reducing the salary of the President of the Uni ted States. JiruCe, from the committee on educa tion and labor, reported adversely the bill to provide lor the investment or certain "unclaimed pay and bounty moneys, now in the treasury, and o facilitate the education of the colored race. Indefinitely postponed. Gordon asked unanimous consent fyr the present consideration ot his resofu tion for : the appointment ol a special committee on toe inter-oceanic canal. Maxey objected, remarking that jus tice to the committees required that the business on the calendar be disposed of. After some debate Air. Gordon - and Mr. Grover withdrew their resolutions for the appointment of a special com mittee on the inter-oceanic canal, and the resolution of Mr. Piatt, requesting the President to communicate to for eign governments the desire of this government to secure the neutrality oi any transit route across the Isthmus, etc., was referred to the committee on foreign relations. At the expiration ot tne morning hour, the Senate took up the regular order, which was the fortifications ap propriation bill. Allison explained the bill and a considerable debate ensued upon its provisions, Conkling, Beck and others complaining that it was. inade quate, while V i tliers and Wallace main tained that there was no danger of war and that it was better to await the re sults of the European experiments in ordnance before going to great expense. baulsbury thought it better to strength en the navy than spend money on coast iortincauons. Daws said he was not in favor of an economy which would leave our har bors unprotected. McPherson condemned the adminis tration of the navy -,lenart men t as wasteful aiid fruitless. After some further debate, the bill as amended in the committee was read a third time and passed. It appropriates $150,000 for the protection, preservation and repair of fortifications and defen sive works: 3400,000 for the armament of the sea coast fortifications, including the expense of converting smooth bore cannon into rifles, and the manufacture of four improved breech-loading rilled guns, and $50,000 for torpedoes for har bor defence and lor experiments. Hansom, oi .North Carolina, intro duced a bill to refund to the North Carolina Railroad Company certain moneys unlawfully collected from it by the United States. Referred. Kellogg rose to a question ol personal privilege. He sent to the clerk's desk and had read a copy of the New Or leans Democrat containing an extract from the Charleston News, alleging that the woman Jessie Raymond was brought to Washington by Kellogg tor the pur pose of influencing action on his con tested election case. Mr. Kellogg said the article was false in every particu lar, and denounced its authors as cow ards, who dared not make an open at tack, but stabbed men in the back. He offered a resolution for the apiomt ment of a committee of live Senators to investigate the charges. Thurmati asked if the Senate had come to such degradation as to notice every newspaper article scandalizing a Senator. When the resolution came up he should move to table it and let it sleep forever. The resolution went rules, and the Senate until Monday. House. "Manning, asked leave to offer over then under the adjourned of Mississippi, a preamble and resolution similar to that offered in the Senate some days ago reciting the al leged contract entered into by the Union Pacific Railroad Company, Cen tral Pacific Railroad Company, and Pa cific Mail Steamship Company, and di recting the committee on the judiciary to inquire specifically whether such contract exists, and report what legis lation is necessary to protect the public interest in the premises, giving said committee leave to sit during the recess and report by bill or otherwise. Newberry, of Michigan, objected. On motion of McMahon, of Ohio, the morning hour was dispensed with. The private busines was laidaside and McMa hon reported fcack the deficiency; appro priation bill from the appropriation committee with an amendment appro priating $000,000 for payment of fees and expenses of United States mar shals and their general deputies, thus making the total amonnt appropriated by the bill 81,205,530". The House then went into commit tee of the whole on this bill. McMahon pointed out that the bill made no appropriation for special depu ty marshals, and said : he doubted whether the Democratic party ever woyld appropriate money for special deputies so long as the law stood in its present shape. After some sparring between Mc Mahon and Hawley, of Connecticut, as to the question whether the liability for 4aymeufrof special deputy marshals was a public debt or - a orivate debt of the Repnblican'part.TifcM'ahon resum ed his remarks upon the' bill, attacking especially the extravagant administra tion ot the governrrvyrt (printing office; Hiscock', of New York, defended the public printer from the charge of squan dering thepublic funds,nnd as to Mc Mahan's statement that the Democrats would not appropriate" money for spe cial deputy marshals, he said the Dem ocrats had gone to the country on that issue and had been defeated. Refer ring especially to elections in Ohio, he Slich exPeiience should i Come back and announce that thev Wfr B McMahon replied that the debt had been incurred in advance of the appro priation and contrary to law.

The Gate Citji Guards have decided to erect a memo-' rial armory which shall commemorate the re-union of the States and the re turn of peace as distinct vfrom many structures erected in the North and South commemorative of events which occurred during the.late.war. -This de cision has grown out of the warmth of the cordiality of the reception given this orgrnizatron everywhere on It's' late tour through the North, and its projectors of the building say its doors shall always be open to all who march under the stars and tripes, which shall float from its turrets. Capt. J. F. Burke, who commands the com pany, started a subscription list for "the purpose with $1,000. A grand lair will be held in Atlanta in April in aid of the enterprise.
