SENATOR GEORGE MAJOR, OF JASPER.

Tmfiwn .«. Mr- M.jor » ! eleotMl *s tb» Rate MtU from the ; district «omj***ed of tho counties of JTeeper, White, Benton end Newton. He ren apoo the fodepeedewt grenge ticket, end received «tittering majority over hie reptiblioan competitor. Bat flaring the •rat eeeaioa in hie term he acted with the rffpnbUuao aide of the senate on nekrly every important measure, welt knowing that a large majority of hi* conetltadnoy wore ia sympathy with.that side upon lease* belonging exclusively to the repnbUeen and democratic partica. Bating the late Stftlft and national uenraeaee he was an ardent advocate pf the Independent greenback doctrines, and delivered several speeches in this eottntjr to advance the Peter Cooper ticket. It is car* rentty reported that he denounced ppoet violently what he termed the apostasy and treason of Mr. Wolcott and olher gentlemen lost conspicuous, who, as tbs campaign progressed, became convinced that the great issues u> be decided were between the repnblicsn and democratic parties, and accordingly aligned themselves in the ranks of their preference. It is reported that he had a great deal to say about the “selling oat*’ of these gentlemen for pecuniary considerations. Not, long riuee, only a week or two ago, Mr. Thomas B. Buchanan, chief editor and manager of the Indianapolis Sum, the oentral organ of the independent-greeuback adherents of this stale, was at Remington, and probably visited* Mr. Major to make the preliminary arrangements for § what has since followed. Immediately upon Mr. Buchanan's return home the Sun announced quite gleefully that Hon. Mr. Major held the balance of power’ip sh at branch of,the General Amenably of which he was a ptembar, and broadly hinted that it was a merchantable commodity to be pntnp at auction and knocked down to the highest bidder. The daily paper* of yesterday announce that a purchaser was found and a sale had' been made. At the democratic senatorial caucus on the evening previous Mr. Major proposed to sot with them, if allowed to name the principal secretary. HU proposition was gladly accepted, and Thomas B. Buchanan was named as ttye secretary. The district that Mr. Major was sleeted to represent at the late elections gave aggregate majorities of 1,000 to 1,'200 for the Republican tickets. It will not be unnatural for this constituency to enquire of him why he neglects them to rep resent the interests pf Mr. Buchanan.. Thera is a large nnmbcr pf people who voted tor Mr. Major who will suspect that he was rightly gauged in Gen. Kilpatrick’s letter to Goverour Hayes. But the toughest conundrum to solve will be bow lie overcame his grange begotten prejudice against middle men and employed Mr. Bucbauan toao hie tradiiijg.

When the state is reapportioned into senatorial districts it would he well to detach White, Benton, Newton and Jasper counties from the rest of the district The Buchanan brothers at Indianapolis cover territory enough, with their recent purchase, to be formed into a district by themselves. Hon. Ben Hill, of Georgia, recently paid his compliments to those Northern gentlemen who were “invincible in peace, invisible in war.” Hon. - Fernando Wood, of New York, retorted with an allusion to those “Southern idiots who seceded in 1861.” Then they “smiled." Tom Buchanan has oue Majority &pd will be chief clerk of the senate of Indr ana. Had Tom Hendrioitß one majority he would be chief officer of the United States senate. After "all it is merely a rule of grammar that marks the differ * ehce iu their positions. 'r* - */ . The independent greenback party'™ 1 longer holds the balance of power in idle. Indiana senate. Tom Buchanan sold it to the democracy for a small commission, and pn Tuesday night the transfer was regularly made and publicly annouijcfd. .. Would it be inappropriate for the presiding officer or a member of tho senate to use the formula “The honorable gentleman from Buchanan brothers,” when alluding to the late independent greenback balance of power in that house ? The man who wrote “I’ve drank my lost glass, boys,” takes his beverage directly from the black bottle on the shelf. An old lady of this city, through her attorney, William Wallace, has converted her means into gold, fearing that there will be another war, She is a southron, and is induced to this step by her friends in the south, who are doing likewise. It is more than probable that this movement is general, thu« creating an übnsual demand for gold. Ney? ertheJess the price keeps in the neighborhood of 107. If it were not for this war talk, which has scared timid people in the south, gold would doubtless be down k to 105, and. in a few months would be ,t|tphr.

The Democratic Line of Retreat .

The presidential contest was a close one. The democratic party, UlogioeL at all times, reasoned that a close contest necessarily meant viotory for democrats. The republic an party was expected to retire from the field, crestfallen and crushed; but, instead, it rested on ' its armq and awaited ths facts. This refusal to be crushed, this disposition to eoolly await the facts, was, in-the eyes of the democrats, a crime little short of treason. Discovering that (hey had not won the battle, discovering that the republican party still held the field, they adopted the plan of boldly claiming all that wan in dispute, and undertook the difficult task of convincing the people that lor a democrat to claim a thing was to submit evidence that he possessed it. The position was, in short, to present a bold and threatening front and wring victory out ot defeat. The advance line was well formed. The position occupied took in Wisconsin, Oregon, Nevada, Louisiana, South Carolina and Florida as democratic states, They had carried them, aud the man who said they hadn’t was a falsifier and a traitor. The democrats had pledged their fortunes aud their sacred honors to maintain the integrity ot this democratic line of states. We desire to emphasize the point that they were frantically earnest and proportionately noisy about this claim. To question it was criminal. This was the advance position occupied by the democratic party for a week after the election. Then commenced the retreat. They yielded Wisconsin, Oregon, and Nevada, and formed anew line in Florida, South Carolina, and Louisiana. They made a show of a stubborn fight, which consisted principally in much beating of drums and much throwing of dust. This was the Corinth ot their campaign. When the republicans advanced the democrats retired from Florida and South Carolina without firing a gun. They had not the semblance of a case. An-attempt'was then made to regaih;Oregon by trickery. It was a dismal failure. Louisiana became the “last ditch” of their campaign, and Giq end will be a surrender. This'much * as to claims as to .states; how as to the claims put as to methods of settleof constitutional questions. After weeks devoted to elucidation and eulogy of a plan that would send this final decision of the great, questiofi to the supreme court, the deihocrats suddenly decline to Consider such a proposition. The two bousjej; must agree upon a plan for counting the vote was a democratic inspiration. A democratic speaker made this impossible by dexterhousecommittee that would nqt agree on any plan. The twenty-second joint rplo was in foppe, democrats said,, but it was scarcely said until it w>s unsaid, and there was a'diuded camp. Every plan suggested as to a settlement, whether proposed by democrats or republicans, has been rejected by the democrats. The line of retreat led them to abandon every disputed state except Louisiana. Without a chance for holding that, they repudiate every suggestion looking to settlement. There is no course open but surrender, and even that cannot now be accomplished gracefully. In noticing this failure of the democratic party to establish a single claim, to carry a single point, to maintain itself in a single position deliberately taken, the people will observe that the republican position has not altered. They have quietly awaited the facts. They declined to ooncede Wisconsin to the democrat&-*rthe democrats ended by conceding it to the republicans. So with Oregon and Nevada. The republicans declined so admit that South Carolina and Florida were carried by the democrats, After weeks of investigation a congressional committee, appointed by a democratic speaker, officially promulgates the fact that Haves carried South Carolina beyond question, and a recount of the vote iu Florida, made under deiqocratic manipulation, concedes that state to Hayes. The republicans declined to admit that Louisiana was democratic. Learned democrats emigrated to that state to watch the count and to abandon any claim to it by admitting the constitutionality of the returning board. Th*ey will end iu an open confession that the state is honestly and fairly re-publican.—lnter-Ocean. There has beetrsome talk of a new flection. The republicans of Indiana would be quit» : vrilling to pick' their flints aud try it again.
