Acconpine to an official statement of the Russian Government 85 per cent of the whole number of former serfs are at present in full possession of their lands allotted them by the ukase of emancipation, There remain 1,653,000 pensants whose obligations hava to far not been iquidated. According fo Inte St. Pelorsburg ulspatches these will now be settled by the Government, ‘These 1,555,000 pensants are divided among the different Provinces a3 follows: Smolensk, 38,000; Ssaratow, 87,000; Ponsa, 85,000; Mogcaw, 43,000; Novgurod, £0,000; Kaluga, 43,000; ‘Twor, 60,000; ‘Taim- bow, 67,000; Pultowa, 05,000; Pskow, 39,000; Whadimir, 80,000; Itjusan, 04,000; Perm, 89,000; Orel, 00,000; Kostromim, 87,000; ‘Tulfo, 114,000; Nischnij-Novgorod, 110,000; Wologidn, 84,000; and Kursk, 160,000, ‘The number of peasants who bought their lands out of thelr own savings Is 644,000, The great majority of the rest, 7,910,000, were driven Into the clutches of the usurers and money-lenders (chiefly Jews) by the nobility, the former fandown- ers.

Espectally fs + this the case with tte corps of army. officers, When papers ike the Cologne Gazette, strong- ly dovoted to the German eause and every- thing that Is German, dare to call attention to tho state of affairs prevailing among the amy ollicers there must exist a danger somewhere, According to that paper the elnss of society from which the corps of oficers replenishes Itself is such that an fneroaso in expenditure of money fs neces- snry on tho part of every officer in order to appear in accordance with his position before tha public, An incrense of salary being out of the question, the cansequence is that tha number of those officers whw fall into tha hands of tho usurers is constantly Increasing. Many give up thelr positions and go te America; others go to Russia, to ‘Tur- key, to Egypt, or other places, wherever inducements offer themselves to better thelr condition, “And whnt is worso than all,” says the Gazette, “those who stay nre less stanch In character than those whe go, They lead a dubious existence at home, making up what they are Incking in means by dark and questionable practices, Maty officers who sea the Impossibility of satisfying the demands made upon their purses by their positions resort to the gaming-table, thus leaving it to chance whether they remaln in thelr posi- tlons or abandon them.” ——_—— ‘Tue Chicago Limes of yesterday asserted on stich responsibility as it protonds to pos- aess+ é 1, That Tis Tnwuxe dit not reeotve a Nue of special telegram from London, Ont, Tuesday night or Wednesday morning, & That it did rewrite the Associated Press (ispatehi and claim to have recolved It as “special.” ‘These statoments are distinctly and delib- erately false, 'Thore 1s one plain way to put down charges of this nature,—tho way that ‘Tue Trrmuxe invited aud challenged the Lice to adopt In the case of {ts fraudulent “cable” dis- patches, and whitch to tifls hour it hag not adopted, ‘Tha follawing correspondence will show how ensy it Iy to meet all question of tho genuineness of a dispatch, ¢f only the dispateh be genulne: Tne Cicago ‘Trmuxe, Enitontan Toosts, May 20, 1#81,—QGeorue WW, Felton, Kay., Manager Chicago Of Vester Union Teleyraph company— Dea sin: Did you receive over the wires ‘Tuesday wight, May, 2 special dispatch ad- dressed to THe Cittcagy ‘Tibuse, dated * Lone don, Ontario, May 24," alyned BM.

It follows, of course, that the Club has no opinions execpt such aa are formed far tt and tald down for its guidance in the regular ordors of tha day issued by tho Boss. Next follows an assault on Secretary Blaine; “No one can forget the gloom and darkness which settled likeantghtmare upon the party when James G. Bialne, humbled and defeated In his own State, was powerless to give one glen of hope, one ray of light.” Connect ing this with a later passage In the address,— “with most unworthy’ motives James G. Blaine has sought to mislead the President aud strike a blow at the represontatives of the Republicans of New York,’’—we find sthat the Grant Club ling been Instructed to hate the Secretary of State, because, on its own confession, it {sno part of its eread to love or hate anybody, Itis no part of its erced to think,—only tonct. Its whola duty consists in “ fidelity to party’? and loyalty to Hence the con- elnsion is irresistible that tho address was either written ot Inspired by a Boss. The nddress.proceeds: ‘The great leaders who could rally the party to battle had been in- sulted, maligned, and betrayed, and tho masses were sullen, dissatisfied, and almost hopeless.” From tho machine standpoint this passago is plain snongh, though from no other it comprehonsible, ‘Tho Bosses gave ordefs to all the clubs In the United States, like the Grant Club of Albany, to nominate Gen, Grant as the Republica candidate for the Presidency; and all tho inembers of such clubs, who hold no opin- fons except those that aro promulgated by the Losses, tried to the best of thelr ability to enrry out the orders, But when the dele- gates assembled nt Chicago they declined to nominate Gen, Grant, and preceadeil to nom- inate Gen, Garfield. ‘This, in the opinion of tha Bosses, was to insult, malign, and betray them, and the Grant Club of Albany reeltes this bit uf history, andadds that “ the mosses | were sullen and dissatisfied.’ Why? De- cause thelr great londers “ had been tusulted, maligned, and betrayed,” of course. Inthe opinion of the Club itisas absurd for * the masses” to have opinions and seek to en- force them politically as itis for the 4-year- old boy to assume to think for his father. Pollties, to them, Is a more squabble between rival Bosses for control of patronage, agama of chess, In which the mugses are mere knights, bishops, castles, nnd pawns tu be moved hither and thither, and saved, if pos- sible, but sacrificed If necessary to protect tho queen; and In this particular’ cuse the quecn represents the offices in the Custom. House from Inspector to Collector, “The masses wore sullen, dissatisfied, and almost hopeless"! The grent leaders had been "ins sulted, maligned, and betrayed,” and the miasges? stuck thelr knuckles In tholr eyes and pouted. ‘Tho masses’? didn’t cara whether Grant was nominated or not; they. didn’t know what they wanted, But they know what thoir “great lenders” wanted, and they bellowed Mico calves because they had been “insulted, maligned, and bo- trayed.” “Then it was,” proceeds the Grant Glub of Albany, “that U. 8. Grant and Hoscoe Conkling, casting astte the tndig- nities and Inaults which hind been henped upou them, guided only by loyalty to tho party organization and love for the grand old party whitoh lind savod the life of the Nation, entered tho conflict and came to the resouc of tho country.” Here wo learn for tho first time upon whom the *Indignities wero put, Pintt does not appedr to have been “inaulted,” Arthur was not “nialigned,” Cornoll was not “betrayed.” How Conkling was “insulted and betrayed ?' dogs not plain- ly appear, except upon the presumption that “tho masses” thought that he ought to have been permitted to name the Presidential candidate, and were ready to ory thoir oyes outbecause he had been thwarted tn his dating wish, But Grant was “In- sulted, maligned, ond betrayed”; there is no doubt about that, And Conk- Mng felt “insulted” Wecauso ho had proposed Grant; and the Grant Club fult “insulted ” because Conkling felt * In- suited’; nnd the miasges were * sullen and dissatisfled,” becaugs tho Grant Club of Al- bany and tho other clubs of tho country felt “Snaulted.” ‘Thon the address Insinuates that Garlicld would haye been defeated In his own State If U. 8. Grant and Roseao Conkling had not “como to the rescue of the country.” ‘Then it says that tho Prest- dont has not treatod Mr, Conkling and Mr, Plott “respectfully.” ‘Then it insinuates thot Mr, Bintne ta “ envious and jealous” of Mr. Conkling's "brilliant and. trlumphant career.” ‘Then It stabs tho President again, by charging that Mr, Blaine controls hin, And, finally, 1¢ appeals to “all those who hald the {utereats of tho Ropublioan party highor in esteem thon the “loaves and the fishes? (o rally round” Conkling and Vintt; which, being Interpreted, means Conkling, and not Conkling and Platt, Tho exproaslon of a lofty contempt for “ tho loaves and the fishes,” sounds very queer jn connection with the gubject of the proposed reblection of Mr, Conkling, who resigned solely because the President had the tener ity to give ono of the “loaves” to Judge Kobortson. Itis platy that the writer of the address was too mad to be logical, Besides, the average machlug politician of the nnder strapper order {g neither malicious nor viudictive, Ho “runs with the machine" a3 falthfully under one ag ynother commander, Having no opimons, he needs only to know that his superior oficer Is regularly com- missioned by the reliuing Boss. Now, the address {3 both imaticious and vindlotive, such as could have been inspired only by ling remarked on receiving It thas he “would not bo nble to read it at present. Ilo evl- dently knew tt by heart, Wo suspect he wrote it, as has been charged, THE CAUSE AND EFFECT OF CONKLING'S RESIGNATION, Tho validity and uxtent of Mr, Conkling's claims for re@lection to the Unitet States Senate can only be falrly determined by, eareful serudiny of the eanse and tho effect of his resignation, becauso had he and Pinte retalned their seats thoro would have been ny vacancy for threo years to come, It the cause for his resignation was not suflletent, or if tho effect of such cutirss was bound to bo damaging to tho Interests of the party which sent hint to the Senate, and also to tha public welfare, thon {tt follows as a matter of course that Coukiing should nut onty not be. returned to the Senate fu tho present fine stance, but that‘he should never again be trusted with a party or a public responsi- bility. That 1s the honest way of looking at his ense, ‘Thery Is only ono theory which warrants tho conclusion that Conkling hed sufictont provocation for resign@iuz his seat—viz,; tho Htate-soverclguty= theory, Lf the Stato of New York has the right under our form of government to dictate to the National Exec- utive how the Federal offices in that State shall bo bestowed, and tho particular cllt- zens of that State who shall, aa well na those who shall not, be nppotnted to oflica; and If, furthermore, tho United States Senators from New York are really Ambassadors from, that Sovereign State to the United States Government, and charged with protecting the infernatlonal comity in regard to the se- lection of Federal officers within the confines of Now York; and {f Senator Conkling had made up ffs mind that he could no fonger furnish his State with the protection which was expected from him in his Ambassadorial capacity, thon he was justified In withdraw- ing from alt offietal communfention with the United States Government. It ts for tho Te- publicans of the State of New York to de- cle whether or not they beliove in the State- soverelgnty theory. No other view of the situation can discover asuflcient cause for Senator Conkling’s res- fgnation, Tho position of Senator of the United States ts certainly not a personal perattisit, which may be abandoned at any thne to suit the whint of the Ineumbent, only to be seized again whun he desires to repos- sess himself thoreof, 1t cannot be maintained that every sensitive assumption of aifroutor indignity warrants any Senutor In resigning his seat, thus Imposing n needless expense upon the public and perhaps serious embar- Tassinent upon his party, Still less enn it be contended with renson that a Senator has sutliclont cause for reslgning whenever he falls to securo a Govermnent appointment. for one of his favorits, or whenever somo person not acceptable to him personally ts apr pointed toofllee, If any stich rule were es- tablished, Senatorint resignations would be so frequent ag te jeopardize constantly tho balanco of political power In that body, and thus doprive the peopleof the power to shape legislation. , But Senator Conkling had no better reason than this for resigning. Mr, Conkling not only resigned without suf- fletent cause, but did so also with tho full knowledge thot his retirement fromthe Sen- ate would bo wt betrayal not only of his own Stato, butof the people of the whole country, beentac his retirement and that of his col- league would give the control of the Senate for the time being Into the hands of the Dem- oerats nnd risk the loss of Republican con- trol of Congress during the current two years. His retirement leaves tho succession to tha Presidential chair to the Democrats in enso. the President and Vice-President shull both dic.“ -It involves the pos- sible lection of two Democratte Sen- ators from New York, in which event tho Demucrats would have undisputed control of the present Congress, Indeed, It was deshyned to make the Senate and the whole Congress antl-Republican, since Mr, Conkling hoped to be revlucted after resin ing, and thus go back released from all obligation to act with the Republrean party except ag it might appear to his Interest to do so, It was appurent to him that hig resignation would thus overturn the oxisting baisneo of political powor, and that this re- sult would be a gross wrong upon the ma- jority of the Amertean people as registered: at the Presiduntin! otection of Inst fall, No one can argue out the Conkling case honestly without reaching the conclusion that the eatse for his resignation was lnsufl- elent and ils effect pernicious, Upon what, then, resta his elaim for retlection? Is it that ho may go back to the Senate to com. plete his butrayal of the Republican party? ‘That is certainly what he would do. Shalla Republican Legisiaturo become a party to the conspirney he has orgaulaed to that ond ? Shall Republican members of that Legista- ture be whipped into supporting an ayowed traitor by any number of his tools and ac- complices? If Conkling had received sufi- elent provocation tor resigning, he might with some Justico have. elated revlection, evon though the effect of his course was to Infllet temporary embarrassment upon his party. If tho effect of his resignation were beneficial, tho insufttelency of exeusq for such a course might be overlooked, But whon the logic of tha cnso shows that he re- signed without cause, and that he know om intonded tha effect to be a betrayal of trust ‘anda punishment to the party whielt sent him to the Senate, It follows that. his re- election will be condoning 4 political crime and surrendering public Interests to the erratic white of a seltish and unsarupulous politleian, ‘Tho Republican party of tha State of Now York and of the country can much batter rlak the election of twa Denio- cratls Senators than Indorso treason Hko Conkling's, THE JUSTICE-OF-THE-PEACE NUISANOE. Both Houses of the General Assombly haye passed the bill amending the taw concerning Justices of the Peace, and defining thelr Jurisdiction. As no yoto by tho Goyernor is expected, the Inw will take effect as soon ns it has been approved by him, ‘The object of this biti 1s to correct thesenn- dalous abuse of jurisdiction by the Justices of thls county, ‘ho practles hns been for’ uhyater lawyers, scountrelly constables, aud others of Hike churdtter, to combine to ex- fort and rob tho poor aud defenseless, and to Jovy blackimall upon corporations and bust noss-mow. Tho process has been to sao out ® suNNONS against a person residing In Chi- cngo requiring the defendant to appear on a day named, at9 a, m,, at the oNice of u Justice of the Peace in one of thecounty towns of this county to answer to a claim of $3, $10, or $20, ‘This oflice was generally some thirty to forty miles from tho city, and the defendant to reach there in time to answer the sum- mons would have to leaye the city by rail at 5 or 6 o'olock in the mosning, If the detendant reached “there in timo he would find that the’ quse bad been vostponed,to some future day; If ho did not auawer, then a judgment would be rendergd: against hin. Inthe one cage he would have to go out to that Justice’s office ay often ag tho consplirutora might choose to prosecute their annoyance, Ini-tha other case, the juagmentsyould be allowed to stand until the tinte for appeal or revision was passed, when, two or threa constables, armed with an execution, would suddenly invade the de 1 endant’s house, and forcibly seize and earry away property ton tines the value of tho debts this property thoy woutd se- erete, ond oventunlly make retitrn that it had been sold, never for more than enough to aullsfy the execution, costs, enttage, sloraze, nnd other charges. In many eases no return was ever made, Tn tho case of widows or defenseless women, theso acizures were nothing less than wholesale robberies, On one of those fraudulent claling, say for $20, the vritire furniture of m family would be carted off, and nothing more ever bo heard of it. Another plan was for these conspirators to bring sults against corporations or other employers of. targe. numbers of porsons. They would snimmon tho corporations for tho purpose of garuisheving the wages of workmen, Soutetines there would bo sults of this kind brought-before one of these country Justices requiring the attendance at the country office of no less than twenty or thirty porsons, representing as many cor- porations or’ firms, to swear that sich cor- poration or firm was vot Indebted to the por- song (inost of them tletitlons) whose wages it was sought to garnishee, To answer n summons of this kind required tho betler part of n day’s time and considerable cost for car-fare, Tho sulls thus disposed of one week would bo renowed week after week, the offort belng to woiry the defendants Into a tnllure to respond. Oiio tenmster fn this elty, who owed the so-called plaintiT noth- ing, who was summoned ton country village weekly for several weoks at Inst put an end to the annoyanco by administering a severe porsotinl enstization to the person responsl- bie for tho sults, For ati this pestitontial an- noyanee there was no relief and no redress. The bill which has Just passed the Legls- Inture seeks to putan end to this business. It makes each comity In this State a district, fn whieh the jurisdiction of Justices shail be uniform; this county is made an excep- tion, by beIng divided into two districts, that part of the county within the elty Umits to bo one district, and the other part a second district,—the jurisdiction of the Justices to be Ihnited ta thelr respective datricts, ‘This bill scoms to be suillelent to remedy the great evil and abuse, proytited tho Inw itself will pass muster, ‘The Chicago Leyal «idviser pronounces the Dilla “legistntlve absurdity.” Lt declares the bill to be a “focal Inw,” and therefore unconstitutional, The Constitution provides, See. 21, Art, 03 Justices of the Pence, Polico Mngistrates, and Constables ahnll bo elected in and for such’ dis- tricta ng are. or may be, provided by law, and tho Juriadiction of such Justices of tho Veaco and Police Magistrates shalt bo uniforio. The existing Inw provides that Justices of the Penco shall be elected In certain dis- tricts, composed of townships, less than a county, but grants them Jurisdiction all over thocounty, Tho bill recently passed makes no change in this law oxcopt in the matter of jurisdiction, which it Imits to districts, de- ‘ining tho district tu be the county in every case except this county, which {s divided into two districts, i ‘The objection Is,thatthe Leg islature hasno authority to change tho designution of “counties " to “ districts,” a3 regarding tha Jurisdiction of Justlees, and that It, especial Jy, hud no power to divide Cook County into two districts. Tow much there may be in this legal objection we do nat undertake to any. it may or may not have a bering on the question that, while Justices of the Peaco In all purts of the State aro elected by the voters in townslilps and districts fixed by Inw, the Justices of the Pence In tho City of Chicago are under the Constitution appointed by the Governor, It would seem reasonable that tho Legislature should haye power to de fine the jurisdiction of. these and of nll other Justices of the Pence within this: district, thus especially separated from tha reat of tho county and the rest of the Stato, nnd whose appointnent is wholly distinct from that of ali other Justices in the State, Was it not Intended by tho Constitn- ton, and was it net so provided, that the part of Cook County included within the Inits of Chieago should, ns regards tho ofico of Justice of tho Pence, be exelusive and ox- cuptional and within the control and regula. tion of legislation distingt trom that provided Jor othor counties and districts ? tal So great anc Intolerable fas been the evil coniplained of, so scandalous have been tho practices of tho Justices under tho present Inw, that 16 will bo regarded a8 a grent mis- fortune should tho bill Just passed prove for any cause to bon failure, — ‘Tite Soclety of Browers' of tho.
