Grant has taken a hand in the ConklingGarficld fight. He says Gar field ought to bo fought to the bitter end He is actuated, no doubt, by the fact that Garfield owes his election to Conk- ling aud Grant, who claim to have held liim up in New" York and saved him and the party from a terrible defeat. It is thought that Gen. Grant's influence may yet save Conkling by returning -JunTto the U. S. Senate, and this, or something else, does seem to have affected the spirit of the opposition which manifested itself against the Senator a fewlays ago. The NY.

The threat and the bribery and alike indecent and pernicious." In so far as this is true it gives strength to a re action of public sentiment for the re-election of Conkling. We would have no hesitation, however, in deciding for our selves if we had a vote on the question, . and that would be to leave Messrs. Conkling and hid man Piatt permanently in the cold. 7 - : An insane met a man by the name of Man, and asked "who are you f .l am a double man, for I am a man and my name is Man' was the reply.

AX ABLE SPEECH AT ANSON Cor. of tae News & Observer. Wadesboko, May 20lli, 1S31. My first duty is to remind you that to-' day ia the anniversary of an event in the history of North Carolina that mast be forever interesting to tho friend of liber tv and free government, wherever he may be npou the face of the earth, and es pecially interesting and dear to every true-hearted North Carolinian. This day one hundred and six yearaago the men of Mecklenburg declared that they were arid ought to be free and independent of the English crown, and proclaimed the grand principles of the declaration of in dependence as the ground-work of their action. Let ns ever keep fresh in our memories their noble deeds, and let ns and our posterity strive to prove our selves as worthy deceudauts of so noble an ancestry. Judge Menimou, after some complimentary remarks to the people of Anson, then said that he came before them, by invitation, to discuss the wis dom aud expediency of prohibiting, by statute, the manufacture aud sale of spir ituous and malt liquors. Ho spoke of the importance of the subject ; said that it was not simply a temperance question that temperance wa3 only one incident to prohibition, as was also every other matter of sound morality. It embraced as well the public economy of the State, aud was interesting to the peoplo from every standpoint of citizenship. His pur pose was to discuss it frankly and fairly aud iu. a just spirit giving offense to no oue. He then adverted to the history of the present prohibition movement as most extiaordimuylu its character: it had not been prompted by politicians or pub-j lie men, but seemed to be a spontaneous inovemeut of the people like other simi lar movements in most of the southern Stales, lie then discussed the action of the Legislature on the subject, aud point ed out the legal bearings of the prohibi tion act. lie said the act itself was not submitted to the people for their appro val or disapproval, but that the penal pro visions were to be operative only ia case a majority of the votes should be in favor of prohibition; that the people will not vote approved or disapproved, bat they will votefor prohibition or against prohibition. The manifest purpose of the Legislature is to take the sense of the peoplo as to whether they are in favor of the manu facture and sale of spirituous liquors ex cept for medicinal nud'othcr certain pur poses so that the act is not before the peo ple, aud it is idle to stop to discuss its de tails. He then pointed out strongly and forcibly the power of the government over its subjects, and made it plain to all that the government had the power to prohi bit the manufacture and sale of spirits, if this were a public evil, so as to make it a nuisance to society in any point of view. He said that the question was therefore one of expediency, and proceeded to dis cuss the evil effects of intoxicating li quors, pointing ont the effect on individu The Washington Chronicle -thinks that whiskey and late hours have more to do with some people's bad health in that city than . the "malaria so often com plained of. Says the Chronicle: "Malaria is a fashionable complaint just now. It answers all symptoms of the old time! fever and ague with a sew series of new-fangled notions which fortunately yield to speedy treatment. It never kills anybody but Congressmen. iPretty soon its inroads will break up the deliberations of that august body in the capitol, and every mother's on of them will hasten home to breathe his native air." If the malaria or something else would keep Congress from meeting again fer the ensuing four years, it would be a great blessing to the country generally, and to its peace and prosperity particularly.

All these views, ho pressed with many striking il lustrations and arguments, which von could plainly see went home to his audi eucc with telling effect; he combated-ob- j jectiou and showed that they were ground less and puerile ; ho proved by statisti cal facts and figures that the manufac ture of spirits in North Carolina scarcely amounted to the dignity of au industry, and that by far the greater quantity ol spirits consumed here was brought from other States; -that we sent vast sums of money out of the State to bring in spirits which debased and debauched our peo ple, doing them no good but much harm ; he showed how the consumption of spirits as a beverage was an absolute destruc tion of capital to the man w ho drank it as well as to the community at largo, and that whisky did not afford food or rai ment, er other things tending to benefit individuals or society ; that the capital was absolutely lost, but what was worse, men were made drunkards, debased and I ruined, while their helpless aud innocent families shared iu their ruin. He refer red to the effect of prohibition where it had prevailed, and pointed with confi dence to its effect iu the coauty of North ampton, lie allnded to the prohibition laws of Maine, and stated that it had a smaller per centage of criminals than any omer state in the Union.

Walker The Degradation of th$ Snpreine . Court. The Philadelphia Times Reports the confirmation of Stanly Matthews as anoth er evidence of the degradation of the Supreme Court. Iu one of its leadiug edi torials, after briefly alluding to somoof the distinguish men who in times past have set upon the Bench, by iway of con trast concludes thus : "In a little more than ten years this has changed. A lare number of people and they are those who come most in contact with the court not only ques tion its ability but its iuteiirity. It is a terrible thing fur English-speaking peo ple to lose faith in the administration of justice for the well-beiuy and safety of our social system hangs on the belief of the peoplo iu the purity of the bench. It must be borne iu mind that 'tis essential not only that our judges shall be pure, bat that those who go before them have faith in their purity. Tho ; decisions of the courts must be respected ot the ends of ju-tice fail of accomplishment. Iu 1870. President Grant appointed to the Supreme Bench Messrs. Strom: and Bradley. It is au open secret that these 1 .1 a t.. men were placed on the bench to ueeiue the constitutionality of the ; legal-tender law. The court "was packed in the inter est of the government and against private suitors. The old traditions of the bench were overthrown. In one case at least parties did not stand on an pqtial footing before the Supreme Court. (The shock was a great oue.) It was the first step in the degredation of the judiciary. Its purity was soiled. The influence of the execu tive was resorted to to defeat justice, tor ltislice is ueienteu whenever it is bought, even when it is bought by the partyv who is in the right. From that day to this the Supreme Court bus come more and more to be a by-word and a reproach. It has come to be realized that the court seeks the accomplishment of other ends than the ends of justice. De cisions are made to compass the objects desired by those who have influence with the judges. The descent has been an easy ; one sines t lie first fatal step was taken. More recently the influence of politics has been felt and the constitution lias been distorted to uiake.it agree v. ith congiesional legislation. Money influen ces have crept in and decisions aflecting the stock market have, strangely enough, been known by favored persons iu Wall street before they were delivered. this is bad enough, infinitely than anything that could have been expected . of t;:e successors of Jay aud Marsha!!-; but that which has hap pened now is worst of all.

The Conkling-Platt resignation is al luded toin conversation only incidentally to-itay. Everybody seems to think that neither of them will be returned by the New York Legislature. A personal and intimate friend of Ex-Senator I Conkling said, last night, that Mr. Conkljng would uot'allow his name to go before the Leg islature under any circumstances. He sah that Conkling has fully determined to retire to private life, aud pursae his profession. "Conkling is." this gentle man said, "a poor man, and the salary of senator is not sufficient to meet his exf peiises. He has long con te mpjated quit-; tiug public life, and has had several splendid offers iu his profession. Intact, he consented very reluctantly to his name being used the last time he wa$ elected ; but he was importuned so strongly by personal friends, to whom he was under obligations for past favors iu a political way, that he was forced to accept the nomination, though greatly contrary to his inclination. Why, at the time he was elected, he actually said that he would resigu tho eeat before the close ot his term." Mr. Konkling is still in the ; city mak- ln; preparations to leave asningrou perhianently in a dav or two.

Again the best men and the best newspapers ' everywhere protested. His nomination was a public iudeceucy and his conlirmatioii is the worst assault yet made ou the administration of justice in this country. Every Senator who voted for him is responsible for : this unhappy result. Democrats as well as Republi cans mast take the odium. Why they did it is impossible to eiolaiii, nuless they were influenced by the railroad lob by-which filled the corridors of the capi tol, crowning by their presence the dis grace of nomination.

They threw away their tradi tions and their principles. They say as plainly as actions can speak that our Su preme Court must be degraded to the registering of determinations made by potent masters.
