The Chicago Times asserted that “Sena-
tor Logarrmight haw as much sense as a
nt-that is to say. sen* enough to cast
about for au opportunity to desert the Mnk-
In. ,hip of U mutism.” The Senator de-
nial tlie assertion, and the Times apolo-
irizes by saying that he “hasn’t the sense of
a rit.’’" It is tnerefore probable that he will
go under.
The New York Timet praises Chamberlain
for accepting au office “whose income bare-
ly pa\' tor the labor it entails.”
' Chamberlain went to South Carolina a
muuer. He is no>v reputed to be a million-
gjro. Meanwhile the state has been plun- • EXCEPTING DALLAS JOURNALS,
deretl of sl.vwo.oou, which Chamberlain is i
supposed to have got his share. We should j
think he could now afford to be governor for ,
*4.000 a year.
The passage of the bid restoring the old j
silver dollar as au unlimited legal tender by
the house yesterday, was uot altogether un-
expected.'but so large a majority was cer-
tainlv unlooked for. The feeling in the sen-
ate is believed to be favorable to the propo-
sition. but as that body moves slowly, it is
not likely it will get a bearing there until af-
ter the holidays.
On the Presidential problem Mr. l\'m. M.
Evarts is reported to ha\ e said: ” Therejis no
u-e in making such a fuss about the Case;
the remedy is perfectly clear, aud the courts
are constantly applying it. The thing to do
i- to put tUe President into the bands of a re-
ceiver with power to ruu toe ounce
collect the debts.”
The papers relate an anecdote 6f a beauti-
ful young lady, who had become blind, hav-
ing recove reil her sight after marriage. Itis
no uncommon tiling for people’s eyjja to be
opened hv marriage.
The Chicago Tribune says that a fiiul ad- _ _ _
