®1 T.i iriilitf Horning, February 10, IS7O. TTTE Inquirer Is thrown into convul sions by the fact that two Democrats in Congress voted against the abolition of the franking privilege. It is the abuse of this privilege by the Radicals that has made it odiou a . Congressmen like John Covode have for years loaded down the mails with reports of smelling Commit tees and whitewashing Investigations, and some of them have even been known to send their boots home through the post office. Nothing of this kind happened when the Demo crats were in a majority in Congress. The franking privilege, as it was used in the better days of the Republic, was a benefit to the people. It enabled them to communicate freely and fully with j then representatives in Congress, and especially were the farmers profited by it in the distribution of seeds of im- j proved cereals and other plants from the ; Agricultural Department. But the pri vilege has been abused, as we have said, i and there is great need that the abuses j which have made it unpopular, should , be corrected. Judge Woodward and Col. Haldeman, the two Democrats who voted against the abolition of the ; privilege, and the half dozen Iladi- ! eals who voted with them, did so be cause they desired it to stand iu order that it might be reformed and restortd to what it once was, a blessing, instead of what it now is, a curse to the people, j Moderation is the best policy. The ; franking privilege properly restricted, would be useful to the public. If the Covodes and Cessnas and Kelleys and Sehcncks had never invaded Congress, there would be no occasion to-day for the abolition or reformation of this privilege. IN the discussion of the naval appro priation bill in the House last week, the Hon. Samuel J. Randall illustrated Grant's love of retrench men t and re form by the following instance. When the present administration went into power there were employed in the na vy yard of Philadelphia between eight and nine hundred men. Within one month tiie force in that navy yard was increased to twenty five hundred men. : Mr. Randall declared that there was no public necessity for their employment —"the men were actually in each oth er's way." Yet the administration which obtained possession ot power under the most solemn pledges of econ omy is now urging enormous appro priations for the perpetuation of such monstrous abuses as those to which j Mr. Randall hascalled public attention. THE Police Commissioners for Phil adelphia, named in the hill which has Jiir t passed the legislature, are Peter A. B. Widener, W. J. Pollock, Johu S. Ritteuhouse, George Truman, John M'Carthy and Mayor Fox, ex njfteio. While taking all power away from the mayor, it was considered in good radi cal taste to make him a member of the board. The majority of this board are tools of Wm. B Mann, and are to be made the stoops on which he again climbs into power. They will Ipse no time in installing Mann's repeaters, ballot box stutrers and bullies in the places to lie vacated by the present membersof the police. Again Wm.B. Mann leads his forces to the front. There is a fine prospect for the people of Philadelphia. The rest of the world should and will avoid the city as if it were beset by a plague. AFTER all the promises of retrench ment and reform mado by Ihe Grant administration—after all the sales of muskets, ironclads, and munitions of war—after the receipt of millions upon millions of dollars from internal reve nue and customs—the national debt for the month of January shows a re duetion of only 0J,9."13,GG4 ; and it is probable that when Secretary Bout well's figures have been thoroughly overhauled and the true state of affairs made known, the "reduction" will lie found to have no real existence. In • the meantime the taxes of the people have not been lightened in the slight est degree, and the burden of the debt is crushing out the life of the nation. Where is the boasted economy of our Radical rulers? , Wrr.i, some one who is posted tell the country what the object is in keep ing up "The Grand Army of the Re public?" We read of sessions, meet ings, secret conclaves and most mys terious doings of thi- "Grand Army," and the reflecting classes, who proper ly hold wars and soldiering as political and moral nuisances, look with espe cial disfavo 5- upon this sort af organi zation in times of peace. The country is sick of war, sick of the fruits of it, sick of the cost of it, sick of soldiering as a profession, and the .•sooner the "Grand Army of the Republic" ceases to meet and fight over its old battle-% the sooner will the political wounds of the Nation heal up.— Lancaster Intelli gencer. THE New York Herald makes a sharp point in regard to the Southern States being required to ratify the fif ; teenth amendment as a condition of j restoration to the Union. As they j could not be trusted to come in and ■ then ratify it, they ratified first and ! then came in. They were, therefore, not in the Union. Either, then, says the Herald, all the reconstruction laws of Congress are invalid, or tiiese South ern ratifications of the fifteenth amend ment are invalid. If tlie States were in the Union there was no need to ad mit them, and if they were not in the | Union they could not participate in | making laws for States that are in. '•Government pets" must be provi ded for, and as Satrap Canby can 110 longer tryranize over Virginia, a new "department" has been created for him, so thai he may draw some SIO,OOO a year from she public treasury for do ing nothing. General Sherman has accordingly issued an order abolish ing the First Military District, and creating the Department of Virgin ia, witii Geu. Canby as commander.— The new "department" comprises Vir ginia, North Carolina and Maryland, and forms part of the Military Divis ion of the Atlantic, under the com mand of Gen. Meade. "Let us have peace," and the tax payers will foot the hills! REVELS, the "Fifteenth Amend ment" Senator from Mississippi, was a substitute broker during the war, and many a "loil colored brother" did he manipulate into the service. Now he j represents Africanized Radicalism in j the United States Senate. With all this we ara sorry to see the Reverend j Revels get into such company as that j of Sumner, Yates and Chandler. Do j moralization is certain. THE President stated to the Mayor of Washington, the other day, that the year closing March 3 would show a j greater reduction of taxes. For partic ulars, inquire of the Republican Con gressman Dawes, who says that Grant's ; administration costs forty-nine millions | of dollars a,year more than Johnson's, j THE United States Senate has reject ed the nomination of Ebenezer R. Hoar as Associate Justice of the Su preme Court. They could not see the propriety of raising that Yankee Ebe nezer. THE negroes of Virginia say that if that State does not follow the spirit of reconstruction acts it shall be put back as a territory. Mark the absolute shall. But the negroes are only aping the manners of Radical Legislators at Washington. MR. DAWES has reiterated his asser tions as to the extravagance of the present Administration. He still ex hibits his respect for the economy en forced and practiced by the Democrats who supported Andrew Johnson. BOUTWELL buys up bonds at an av erage premium of 15 per cent., thus adding, if all should be bought up, o ver $300,000,000 to the principal. Vo ters are your burdens heavy enough ? coxunmioxAL. WASHINGTON, Feb. 1. The currency question engrossed the attention of the Senate yesterday. Mr. Sherman's amendment to allow hanks having excess of capital under the act, to go into States having less than their equal share of circulation, and estab lishing banking-hou-es therein, was a dopted. An amendment, by Mr. Chandler, to increase the amount of circulation provided for in the hill to oue hundred million, was rejected.— The understanding is that a vote will be had on the bill to-day at 4 o'clock P. M. Mr. Morton introduc d a bill to provide for the admission of Mis sissippi. It imposes, the same condi tions as in the case of Virginia. Mr. Ramsey reported favorably the House bill to abolish the franking privilege. The >ame Senator also reported back from the Post-office Committee, with amendments, the bill to establish a postal telegraph system and to incor porate the Postal Telegraph Company. Mr. ( ragin introduced a bill to abolish the office of Surveyor of Customs. In the House of Representatives two bills were introduced for the admission of Mississippi, and a bill by a Democrat ic member from Alabama, for the re moval of all political disabilities.— A resolution favoring the payment of the bonds in greenbacks, offer ed by Mr. McXeely, of Illinois, was tabled by nearly eighty majority. Mr. Ingersoll offered a resolution di recting the Banking Committee to re port back his bill authorizing an addi tional issue of forty-four millions of le gal tenders, but the House refused to entertain it. Bills were introduced to aboli-h the Department of Agriculture, to reduce the pay of members of Con gress (by a Democratic member of course), and to grant belligerent rights to the republic of Cuba. On motion of Mr. Banks, the Cuban champion, the latter was referred to the Committee of Foreign Affairs. Mr. Cox, asked leave to offer a resolution instructing the Ways and Means Committee to report a clause repealing the unjust and un burdensome tariff on coal. The eoal men rallied in force and voted the res olution down, 75 to 41, which is omin ous for the poor mail's free coal when the tariff comes under revision. WASHINGTON, Feb. 2. Finance was the featuie in the Sen M*. ate, and the new tariff amendmentsthe j feature in the House yesterday. In : the upper chamber Mr. Sherman's bill was discussed at length, but the ex pected vote was not reached. Mr. I Sumner made a speech, interpolating it, as usual, with extracts from private ! correspondence indorsing his views.— I Two amendments by Mr. Morton; one ! to increase the additional circulation j from forty-five to fifty-two millions of dollars, the other authorizing the with ! drawal of thirteen millions of circula | tion from the States having an excess and its distribution among the States having less than their share, were a dopted. The amendment offered by Mr. Sumner to issue two millions of additional currency was voted down. Various other amendments were pro posed and rejected, and the final dispo sition of the bill wits deferred until to day. Mr. Saulsbury presented a memorial praying for such legislation as will se cure the government of the United States to the white race, which was re ferred to the Judiciary Committee.— Mr. Poineroy introduced a bill to es tablish a prohibitory liquor law in the District of Columbia. If there was ev er one needed anywhere it is where the present Congress is sitting. In the | House of Representatives, Mr. Schenck, as chairman of the Commit tee on Ways aud Means, reported the new bill to amend lite tariff law. A discussion sprang up at once, during which several members of the commit- i tee, Democrats and Radicals, attacked the bill in front and flank. Mr. Cox inquired whether the bill was not "an aggravation of the present monopoli zing, fraudulent, scoundrelly system of tariffs now existing," and Mr. Mar shall, one of the committee, replied that it was. The bill was ordered to i be printed and was made the special | order for Tuesday, the loth instant.— < The House wen into committee on i the Appropriation bill, and several Democrats eulogized Mr. Dawes and j assailed the administration for its ex travagance and corruption. The Rad icals, not relishing these denunciations j arbitrarily choked off the debate and | a Jjourned the committee. WASHINGTON, Feb. 3. Mr. Sherman's Currency bill was passed in the United States Senate yes terday by a vote of 39 to 23. Sumner and sixteen other Radicals voted a gainst it. The Senate also discussed Mr. Howe's Neutrality bill. In the House of Representative.', Mr. Logan introduced a resolution requiring the Committee on Foreign Affairs to re port on the feasibility of recognizing the belligerency of Cuba, which was a dopted. This brings the matter to a head, if the committee does not dodge the responsibility by neglecting to re port. The House, in committee, de bated at length the Senate bill to ap propriate $30,000 lor the relief of the negroes of Washington. A sharp pas sage Detwecn Mr. Randall and Mr. Dawes took place, in which the latter was decidedly worsted. The bill was not disposed of when the House ad journed. WASHINGTON, Feb. 4. The United States Senate, in execu tive ses>ion yesterday, rejected, by a vote of ayes 24, nay-3J, the nomination of Ebenezer It. Hoar as Associate Jus tice of the Supreme Court. The vote was a square one on the issue, and the President stands snubbed for insisting upon the confirmation of his unpopu lar candidate. A bill to authorize the funding and consolidation of the national debt, to extend banking facilities, and to estab lish specie payments was introduced in the United States Senate yesterday, from the Finance Committee, by Mr. Sherman. It was ordered to he print ed. Mr. Abbott, the North Carolina carpet-bagger, offered a resolution of inquiry into the constitutionality and expediency of establishing a national police force for the Southern States (in ether words of continuing military rule). After a discussion of some length upon the matter of naval appro priations, the Senate laid aside the or der so as to allow Matt Carpenter, of Wisconsin, to get off his long incuba ted Cuba sympathy speech. Mr. Car penter advocated the repealing of the Neutrality law. Mr. Howard defend ed the policy of the administration, and ridiculed the pretentions of the Cubans to a responsible government. In the House of Representatives, Mr. CuHum, from the Territorial Commit tee, reported the bill to prohibit poly gamy in the Territory of Utah. The bill to admit Mississippi to representa tion in Congress was reported by B. F. Butler, from the Reconstruction Committee. The features of the bill are precisely the same as in the act ad mitting Virginia. Mr. Beck offered a substitute to admit the State uncondi tionally, but it was voted down, 85 to 98, about one half of those voting in the affirmative being Radicals. The original bill was then passed. The re mainder of the session was devoted to a debate upon the bill introduced by Mr. Dawes, from the Committee on Appropriations, to supply deficiencies for the navy. The bill asked for sll - 000,000. In the cogrse of the debate allusion was made to the packing of the navy-yards with superfluous la borers at election times, and to the a larming inefficiency of our naval ves sels. Mr. Logan called the latter old tubs, Mr. Banks quoted Admiral far? ragut as saying that wooden vessels were as good as iron ones. Cuba was dragged into the discussion, and Mr. Benjamin, in behalf of the administra tion, "announced that It was not prepar ed at this time even to recommend the recognition of Cuban belliger.i.ry,— Finally, an amendment, tutting down the appropriation to *1,000,000."was a greed to, and the bill was passed. WASHINGTON, Feb. 5. The friends of the bill abolishing the franking privilege, which has already passed the House of Representatives, attempted to put it on its passage in the Senate yesterday; but, after a de bate on its merits, in which considera ble opposition to it being developed, it was obliged to give way to special or der, and the Senate refused, by a vot( of 34 to 22, to take it up again. This i! supposed to indicate the strength o the friends and euiomies of the meas ure, and, of course, to foreshadow its defeat. The Senate passed a bill au ; thorizing the Secretary of the Treasu 1 ry to withhold moneys due to any StaU | which may fx? in default of paymenl ' of the interest on any part of its bonds held in trust hy the United States. A part of the session was devoted to the I consideration of means of coddling the District negroes. The hill to incorpo ratea Homeopathic Society, amended so as to prevent the exclusion of ne groes, was passed. In the llouse, General Slocum read an advertisement from a New York paper, offering for stile a vacant cadetship in the United States Naval Academy, and a resolu tion was unanimously adopted author izing the Committee on Military Af fairs to inquire as to whether any member of the House lias ever sold or offered to sell his influence in the man ner indicated. In the course of the remarks which followed, Mr. Wood ward stated a case where there had come to his knowledge the offer of a sale of tf West Point cadetship for $2,- 500, and Mr. Seofield also had heard of a sale for SSOO, the culprit being a Pennsylvania Congressman. The House passed the Senate bill appro priating $30,000 to feed the idle negroes of the District of Columbia, and, ex hausted by the effort, adjourned.— Buncombe to day. TheSchoeppees.se has made its ap pearance in a new shape. A bill has passed the State Senate which allows writs of error in cases of murder and voluntary manslaughter, not only where such cases may hereafter be ta ken to the Supreme Court, but in cases now pending in that tribunal. The bill further proposes that the Supreme Court may not only review the law of the case, which is all that has hitherto been done by that tribunal on writs of error, but that .he evidence may be considered and the court may deter mine whether there were sufficient facts in the testimony to authorize a verdict of murder in the first degree, and if the court should be of the opin ion that the judgment was not justi fied by the evidence, it may reverse the decision of the court below and send back the case for a new trial. The mysterious announcement comes from Vienna that the Archduchess E lizabeth, a member of the Imperial family of Austria has fled from her home and kindled, and embarked for America, by the way of Ham burg. Why Elizabeth should fly we are not informed by the enterprising telegrapher. She is a cousin of the Emperor, is 39 years of age, and has been married twice ; first, to her cous in, Ferdinand of Modena, who died in 1849, and secondly to another cousin the Archduke Charles Ferdinand, who is general of cavalry ami an old num. By her first husband she had a daugh ter, now living, the Archduchess Maria Theresa, who was married two years ago io a Bavarian prince, and has just had a child. The fugitive Elizabeth is therefore a grandmother at 39, and that calamity to a handsome, proud spirited woman may have something to do with her self-exik to the wilds of America. All doubt is removed of the fate of Mexico. The unfortunate country is doomed to another bloody civil war, and even the friends of Juarez admit that the catastrophe cannot be averted. Five States are now in open insurrec tion, and tne central government is powerless. Very gloomy forebodingsof the future fill the columns of the Vera Cruz papers. Theuext steamer at Ha vana will probably bring the news of the downfall of President Juarez and the reign of anarchy ail over the land. In exchanging Maximilian for Juarez the Mexicans got back their republic, but not peace or good government. A remarkable clerical scandal is reported in the Philadelphia pa pers. The delinquent is a Catholic priest, name unknown, and the victim of his wiles a Miss Louisa Dober, who has suddenly and mysteriously disap peared. Rev. Mr. Hartley, of the sec onu Reformed Church, has received a letter from Miss Dober, in which she states that she is confined in the celt of a catholic church, and that she is to be sent toa nunnery in Milwaukee. The affair creates much excitement in re ligious circles in the Quaker City General Can by issued an order, turn ing over the administration of the Slate affairs of Virginia to thecivilati thorities.

Six thousand nine hundred work men at the iron and steel works of Krupp, in Germany, produced 125,000,- 000 pounds of steel last year. A revolution among the washerwo men iu Columbus, Miss., is threatened, because of a steam laundry just estab Hshed there. It is quite time to have news of a fresh murder of Dr. David Living stone, and we have it On this occa sion he was roasted, the charge against him being that he was a wizard, and the perpetrators of the cruelty were the very negroes he lias eulogized so frequently and loved so well. The reports of Dr. Livingstone's undoing have been so frequent that the public are disposed to give them little credence now, and in this ease, the intelligence comes from a British naval officer stationed somewhere on the African coast.

Thegreatreason why physiciaus do not cure consumption is, they try to do too much; they give medicine to stop the cough, to stop chills, to stop night sweats, hectic fever, and by so doing they derange the whole ligostive powers, locking up the secretions, and eventually the patient sinks and dies.

Probably fiever before in tbe whole history of medicine, hag anything won so widely and sodeep ly upon the confidence of mankind, as this excel lent remedy for pulmonary complaints. Through a long seriesof years, and among most of the raees of men w has risen higher and higher in their es timation, as it has become better known. Its uni form character and power to cure tbe various af fections of ihe lungs and throat, have made it known as a reliable protector against them. 1Y hile adapted to milder f'rms of disease and to young children, it is at the same time the most effectual remedy that can be given for incipient consumption, and the danger us affections of the ; throat and lungs. As a provision against sudden attacks of Croup, it should be kept on handin ev ery family, and indeed as all are sometime sub ject to colds and cougns, all should be provided with this antidote for them. Although settled Consumpti n is thought in curable, still great numbers of cases where the disease seemed settled, have been completely cured, and the patient restored to s iund health by the Cherry Pectoral. So complete is its mastery over the disorders of the Lungs and Throat, that the most obstinate of them yield te it. When nothing else could reach them, under the Cherry Pectoral they subside and disappear. Singers and public Speakers find great protec tion from it. Asthma is always relieved andoften wTjollyoor ed by it. Bronchitis is generally cured by taking the Cherry Pectoral in small and frequent doses. So generally are its virtues known that we neeu ; not publish the certificates of them here, or do j more than assure the public that its qualities are ■ fully maintained.
