THE GREAT TAX COLITCTOt.
It is tlie peculiar boast of the friends
of the present national administration,
that the tax laws have never been so
rigidly enforced as at this time. The
republican press teems with praisosof
the President for his close collection of
the revenues. The trooly 101 l may dif
fer in regard to the foreign policy of
the administration, as, for instance, in
reference to Mr. Fish's cour.-e on the
Cuban question or on the Alabama
claims, they may vary widely in re
gard to Boutweli's hobby, the Funding
bill, or even fail to harmonize as to
the necessity to re constructing recon
structed Tennessee, but on the subject
of the efficiency of Grant as a tux
gather they are perfectly agreed. They
are anxious that everybody shall ad
mit that the administration is an en
tire success so far as its business of de
pleting the pockets of the tax-payers
is concerned. We most cheerfully ac
knowledge the fact, for it is a fact that
t ; e present national administration
collects more taxes from the people
than were ever obtained by any of its
predecessors. We go farther and ad
mit, also, that no preceding adminis
tration ever c pent as much of the jeo
ple's morey, in the same period of
time, as this one. Doubtless, in the
next presidential race, Gen. Grant will
be put forward a.; the candidate of
those who intend that the people shall
bleed freely under the lancet of taxa
tion. Mis claim to re-election will be
bas-d almost entirely on bis success as
an exciseman. Radicalism will ring
the changes on the successful phleboto
my of Grant's revenue policy, and loy
alty will bawl itself hoarse in wild huz
zas for the re-election of the Great
Tax Collector.
THE ItKTi'KX OF SPECIF.
The probability of an early return to
specie payments is not at all, as our
radical friends would have the people
believe, attributable to the sagacity of
the President, nor the wisdom of Mr.
Secretary Boutwell. The return of
specie and the appreciation of green
backs simply furnish a marvelous ex
ampleof the recuperative power of this
great country. For the last eight or
nine years corruption and extrava
gance have pervaded every depart
ment of our government, an incalcula
ble amount of indebtedness iias been
piled on the country and the public
coffers have been drained to the bottom
dollar. The return of specie payments,
notwithstanding these great draw
backs, is due only to the reviving in
fluences of the material industries of
the country gradually recovering from
the shock of war. These may yet save
us from the legitimate effects of the
mad legislation and intolerable oppres
sion of an unwise radical administra
tion.
The bouefieen t a rrangem ?n ts of nat u re
ami the physical necessities of the
Southern people, are fast restoring
the productive industry temporarily
destroyed by the war. Cotton, if not
king, has again become Chancellor of
the Exchequer of the empire of Trade,
la spite of radical malice, in spite of
reconstruction and military usurpation,
the great Southern staple again takes
the place of gold in balancing our com
mercial accounts with other countries.
As the production of cotton has in
creased, so has the price of gold de
creased. Had the policy indicated by
Lincoln and adopted by Johnson been
sustained by Congress, had the South
ern States been permitted, at the close
of the war, to send representatives to
Congress and to enjoy self-government
so that labor might have been peace
fully and properly organized within
their borders, their dormant energies
would long have wakened into activi
ty and the return to specie payments
would have come at least two years a
go. For this vexa'ious delay, this cru
el suspense, we are indebted to the
radical schemers who invented the
deviltry of reconstruction to plague and
harass the Southern people. No thanks
to those je.-.tilent conspirators against
the public peace, that Southern indus
try is at last reviving to save the cred
it of the government.
SCOTT, the carpet-bag Governor of
South Coroiria, made a speech recently
at a m eting held in Washington to
invent some sort oi" punishment for
Georgia, in which he gave.the follow
ing advice to the loyal members of the
Georgia delegation: "I -ay to the
mem!ers of the Legislature of Georgia
when you go homo pass such laws a
w ill give your Governor the power to
arm every man in the State, to make
an appropriation to buy all the Win
chester rifi -s that he can, an I one hun
dred rounds of ammunition for each
man, and demand a fair election. I
teMyou the Winchester riileis the beat
h.v.* you tan have." Certainly. Bul
lets and bayonets are the strongest
Radical arguments. Take them aw: v.
and there is nothing left. i
THE Inquirer hopes that the Air
Line Bail road Bill, now before Con
gress, under which a line of railway
between Washington and New York,
is to bo constructed, will pass. We
hope it w'iff not pass. ATI the railroads
in existence, save the Pacific Raii
road, have been constructed under
charters from State governments.—
The several Pacific Railroad Compan
ies would not have been chartered by
Congness, if the territory over which
their lines pass, had teen formed into
States. Certainly the power to charter
railroad companies, is not co-ordinate
in the Federal and State governments.
Both cannot possess and exercise it at
the same time. Endless confusion and
interminable litigation between com
panies organized respectively under
the State governments and the Feder
al governments, would be the inevita
table result. StipjKjse for instance, that
the route of the proposed Air Line
Railroad from Washington to New
York, so far as it passes over the soil
of Pennsylvania, is covered by a char
ter to another company granted by
our State legislature. Could the for
mer oust the latter and take posses
sion of the route? Certainly not. If
they could do that, they might with e
qual propriety and justice, seize all the
railway lines within the State, if they
chanced to be in their way. The In
quirer very naturally forgets that any
rightsare left to the States. In its dis
torted idea of our system of govern
ment, the right of eminent domain has
been swept from the States along with
the regulation of the elective franchise.
We shall not be surprised to find it ad
vising, some of these days, that Con
gress shall establish a Law Depart
ment. and informing its readers that
they must go to Washington, instead
of Harri.-burg, to obtain patents for
their lands.
ARE we to have a colored Associate
Judge? This question agitates the
minds of the "Republican''leaders in
this county considerably at present.—
The negro element in their party asks
to be represented on the county ticket,
as an earnest of friendship, for the Af
rican "man and brother." They are
too shrewd to be satisfied with the
empty promises of future preferment
held out to them by the 'Republican'
politicians. The question is one of
grave importance to our political op
ponents. How they will settle it re
mains to be seen.
THE Great Tax-Collector, U. S.
Grant, now figures in the lobby of the
United States Senate as a borer tor the
ratification of the secret trea y with
Baez, of San Domingo, for the pur
chase, by the United States Govern
ment, of that island of earthquakes and
negroes. Should the Senate yield to
his iuiportunings, he will collect the
federal taxes more closely and rigor
ously next year than he has during the
past. A feeling of ineffable pride
must swell the bosoms of republicans
as they contemplate the spectacle pre
sented by the administration when
G rants goes lobbying in the Senate for
the San Domingo treaty, and Boutwell
is boring in the House for the passage
of the Funding Bill!
THE Radical journals are making cal
culations that will give them every
State in the Union next fall by the ac
cession of the negro vote. Had they
not better also make some calculations
as to the number of Republicans who
are opposed to negro suffrage, who vo
ted against it whenever they had a
chance—how they like Congress to as
sume to do for them what they refused
to do themselves—and what kind of
temper they may be in when these
same Congressmen come to ask their
votes next fail. It may IK- well to
make some allowance for disaffection
here aim there.
WENDELL PHILIPS is out in favor of
giving the Indians political rights e
quivaiem to those recently accorded to
the negro. Philips is to be commend
ed for his consistency, If not for his
wisdom. Why leave poor "l.o" out in
the cold ? Perhaps if we give him the
ballot he will sheathe the scalping
knife and bury his tomahawk. Once
in po!'ii'e he will have little time or

WASHINGTON, March 22.
The Senate yesterday, at an early
hour, went into executive session and
confirmed the nomination of the Hon.
.jbv JJtadley, of New Jersey, to be m
associate justice of the Supreme Court
of the United States. A memorial
was presented from colored citizens of
the lower counties of Maryland, set
tiny forth that while they are nominally
free, they enjoy none of the benefits of
freedom ; that they are in poverty and
destitution. They >licit Congress to
enact such legislation as will put in ac
tive operatien the fifteenth amend
ment. A bill was passed providing
for the distribution of arms to the
Southern States. The bill to change
the usury laws of the District of Co
lumbia with theHou.se amendment, was
called up and referred. The consider
ation of the Georgia bill was then re
sumed, and a long debate ensued.
In the House, Mr. Swann of Mary
land, presented a petition from John
\V. Baughman and forty other me
chanics of Baltimore, protesting a
gainst certain changes in the tariff
laws, aud.praying for a reduction of
duty ou necessaries not produced in
ibis country. A bill was passed to
amend the census act so as to allow
the census to be taken, and striking
out the section in relation to the ap
portionment of members. The bill to
incorporate the Washington Steam
boat Company was passed; a bill was
also passed appropriating $20,009 to re
build the orphan asylum of "Our Lady
of Mercy," at Charleston, S. C., in con
sideration of attention paid Union of
ficers and soldiers there during the
war. The tariff bill was (hen discus
sed at length.
WASHINGTON, March 23.
lu the United States Senate yes
terday, Mr. Harlan from the commit
tee on Indian Affairs, reported a bill
reorganizing the Indian Department.
It provides for the appointment of five
inspectors of Indian affairs, who, with
the Secretary of the Interior, anil the
Commissioner of Indian Affairs, are to
constitute a board of supervision. The
Senate discussed all day the report of
the Judiciary Committee rejecting
General Ames as Senator from Missis
sippi. Mr. Conkling made an elabor
ate legal argument in favor of the re
port. If is evident, however, from
the course of the debate, that a large
majority of the Radical Senators will
vote to admit Ames, so as to secure
his vote against the Bingham amend
ment to the Georgia hill. The session
of the souse of Representatives was
occupied with the consideration of two
bill.-: the Sutro Tunnel job, and the
anti-Polygamy hill. During the dis
cussion of the latter, Mr Ward (Rad j,
of New York, made a sharp speech a
gainst the Mormons. A motion to
lay the bill on the table was rejected by
a vote of 40 to 121, most of the Demo
crats voting in the affirmative. Mr.
Cox, of New York, explained that the
Democrats did not intend to indorse
polygamy by their vote, but to pro
test against measures of prosecution,
which always defeated their object.
Mr. Hooper, the Mormon delegate
from Utah, was speak i g against the
bill when the House adjourned.
The Cuban question has at last as
sumed a positive shape in Congress.
The House Committee on Foreign Af
fairs have agreed, by a vote of 8 to 1,
to report in favor of authorizing and
instructing the President to maintain
neutrality "in the contest now exis
ting between the people of Cuba and
the government of the Kingdom of
Spain." This is virtually recognizing
the belligerency of the Cuban insur
gents.
WASHINGTON, March 24.
In the United Stales Senate yester
day the case of General Ames the mil
itary commander in Mississippi who
applied for admission to the Senate was
debated nearly the entire session. Mr.
Carpenter, of Wisconsin, made a
speech in defence of the report of the
' committee, in which he rebuked his
party associates for their zeal in tram
pling the Constitution under foot.
His speech was really a good demo
cratic speech, arid indicates where the
eloquent Senator is drifting. Mr. Da
vis of Kentucky, also delivered a forci
ble argument against Ames. A vote
will probably he reached to-day. In
the House of Representatives the dis
cussion on the bill to prohibit polyga
my in Utah was resumed, and Mr.
Hooper, the Mormon delegate, conclu
ded his remarks. He claimed that
polygamy was taught by the greatest
of all law givers, and tnat monogamy
originated among the Pagan nations.
After the bill was materially amended
and modified it passed the House by a
vote of 04 to 02. The Butro Tunnel
hill was up, but after a short debate
was laid on the table by a large ma
jority. Mr. Scofield, from the Naval
Committee, reported the bin for the
emoval of the Brooklyn Navy-yard.
WASHINGTON, March SJN.
The United States Senate was in ex
ecutive session all day yesterday upon
the San Domingo treaty. Mr. Sum
ner made a four hours' speech against
annexation. Tne success of Presi
dent's Grant's efforts to force the ratiti
caiionof the treaty is in great doubt.
Both sides areconfiih nt, hut it is believ
ed that the House w ill be almost unani
mous against making tl.e necessary
appropriations, and thus the Baez-
Grant job wilt fall through. The Sao
Domingo lobby in Washington is in
fiuential and loaded down with mon
ey, grid iias the free run of the White
House, In the House yf Representa
tives yesterday, Mr. Logan, from the
Committee on Military affairs, made
a general report on the sale of cu
detships, recommending the dis
miss! of (ieu.ral Schropf from the
Patent Oifice and the court-martialing
of Commodore Upshur for trading and
buying cadets hips, and iutroducing a
bill making requisite in a cadet a two
years' residence in the district from
which be i appointed. The bill, a
tuended so as to make the residence
one year instead of 1 wo, together with
the resolutions, was passed, and the
comtwßtre was dbchargCfi. The House
then went into Committee of the
Whole, and discussed the Tariff bill
during the alternoon and evening ses
sions. The gentral debate on tfe bill
win rinse to-day.
WASHINGTON, March 20.
Congressional jiroecedings yesterday
were without marked importance.
Mr. Wilson introduced the Army bill
in the Senate. It reduces the number
of officers and enlisted men. Mr. Cole
from the Post-office Committee, intro
duced a bill to provide for a semi
monthly steamship service between
San Francisco and ports in Japan and
China. Mr. Sherman introduced a
joint resolution appropriating SIOO,OOO
to the Hall expedition in search of the
North Pole. The Senate took up and
passed the bill to fix the point of junc
tion of the Central Pacific Railroad
Companies. The House of Represen
tatives devoted the day in comioitttee
to the Tariff bill. So many members
have speeches to make that the gener
al debate will hardly be closed before
next week. The Senate was in execu
tive session several hours on theßaez-
Grant San Domingo job. Senator
Morton madean elaborate speech in fa
vor of it.
ELDttllHili OX "I.OVAI.I'V."
Mr. Eidridge, of Wisconsin, is not
particularly enamored by the radical
cant of loyalty. The other day in the
House, he Said :
The word "loyalty" 1 have always
despised. I despise what is called a
"loyal" man; 1 hate him from the
crown of my head to the sole of my
feet. I once undertook to illustrate to
the House by a story the meaning of the
word "loyaltyand as the House
may have forgotten the incident I wish
to repeat it for the benefit of my friend
irom Massachusetts. The question
wa-asked why a friend of mine could
not get the contracts out of which he
could make money during the war,
and who was able to get contracts and
make money ; a loyal man told him
the reason why lie could not was be
cause be was disloyal and the reason
why he could was because he was
"truly loyal." My friend says, "Now
what flu you mean by loyal?"
"Mean ?" he says; "why it is a feeling
which pervades a man, that influences
his whole conduct, that make him re
ally what he is, or what he is not."
"But," said my friend, "what does
that mean?" Ho replied, "It is a
feeling." "Well then how do you
feel ? ' "i feel loyal." "But what is that
feeling?" He then replied, "I feel as
though I wanted to steal something or
kill somebody." [Laughter.] And that
is loyalty. You have made that word
take the place of the true and nobleold
word, the foundation principle of the
republic and of the n i ion—to take
the place of "patriotism." I am pa
triotic, but I am not "loyal." It is a
word which does not belong to this
country; but only belongs to Massa
chusetts. [Laughter.]
WHEELING, March 21.— Thomas D.
Carr, the murderer of Louisa C. Fox,
was executed to-day at St. C'lairsville,
Ohio. Tiie town was alive with for
eigners to witness the execution. At
one o'clock and twenty minutes, the
prisoner was taken upon the stand
and made a few brief remarks in
which he blamed his father and whis
ky for this sad end of his life. He
offered a short prayer, in which lift
briefly sketched the many errors of
his life. In twenty minutes after the
trap fell and the man was hurled into
eternity. His neck was not broken
and he was strangled. A written con-,
fession was made, in which he says
that he was the perpetrator of four
teen cold-blooded murd rs before the
killing of Miss Fox. The confession
is full, the rehearsal of his 1 fe era
bracing an entire history of the T rrieh
murder which was perpetrated near
this city in 1867.
QUINCY, 111., March 24. A terri

Schenek's Pulmonic Syrup,
Seaweed Tonic and Mandrake Pills. willcnreCoti
sumption, Liver Complaint and Dyspefsia, if ta
ken according to directions They are all three
to be taken at the same time. They cleanse the
stomach, relax the liver, and put. it to work : then
the appetite becomes good; the food digests and
makes good blood ; the patient begins to grow in
fiesh ; the diseased mat'er ripens in the lungss
and tbe patient outgrows the disease and get,
well. This is the only way 'o cure consumption
To these three medicines Dr J H.Schenck, of
Philadelphia, owes his unrivalled success in the
treatmentof pulmonary consumption. The Put
monic Syrup ripens tbe morbid matter in the
lun/s. nature throws it off by an easy expectora
tion, for when the phlegm or matter is ripe, a
slight cough will throw t off, and the patient has
rest and the lungs begin to heal.
To do this, the Seaweed Tonic and Mandrake
Pills must be freely used to cleause the stomach
and liver, so that the Pulmonic Syrup and the
food will make good blood
Schenck's Mandrake Pills act upon tbe liver,
removing all obstructions, relax the ducts of the
gal.-bladder, the bile starts freely, and the liver
is soon relieved ; the stools wilt show what the
Pills can do ; nothing has ever boon invented ex
cept calomel (a deadly poison which is very dan
gerous to use unless with great care), that will
unlock the gall-bladder and starts the secretions
of the liver like Schenck's Mandrake Pills
Ever Complaint is one of the most prominent
causes of Consumption.
Schenck's Seaweed Tonic is a gentle stimulant
and alterative, and the Alkali in the Seaweed,
which this preparation is made of, assists the
stomach to throw out the gastric juice to dissolve
the food with the Pulmonic Syrup, and it is made
into good blood without fermentation or souring
in the stomach.
The great reason why physicians do not cure
consumption is, they try to do too inuoh ; they
giveinedicine to stop the cough, to stop chills, to
stop night sweats, hectic fever, and by so doing
theyderange the whole digestive powers, locking
hup te seore f ions, and eventually the patient
sink and dies.
Dr. Scheuck, in his treatment, does not try to j
stop a cough, night sweats, chills, or fever. Re
rnov e the cause, and they will all stop of their
own accord. No one can bo cured of Consurap.
tion. Liver Complaint, Dyspepsia, Cataarh, Can
ker, Ulcerated Throat, unless the liver and stom
ach are mate healthy.
If a person has Consumption, ofcourse the lungs
in some way are diseased, either tubereleg, ab
sceses, bronchial irritation, pleura adhesion, or
tbe lungs are a mass of intlauimatior Lad fast de
caying In such eases what must be done ? It
is not only toe lungs that are wasting, but it is
tho whole body. The stomach and liver have lost
their power to make blood out of food. Now the
only ohanoe is to take Sohenok's three medicines,
whtich will bring up a tone to the stomach, the
pa ient will begin to want food, it will digesteasi
iy and inako good blood : then the patient begins
ot gain in flesh, and as soon as the body begins to
sgrow, the lungs commence to heal up, and tbe pa
stienl gets fleshy and well. This is the only way
tocure consumption.
When there is no lung disease, and only Liver
Complaint and Dyspepsia, Bchenck'g Seaweed
Tonic and Mandrake Pills are si ffioieut without
the Pulmonic Syrup. Take the Mandrake Pills
freely in all billious complaints, as they are per
fectly harmless
Dr. S jhenck, who has enjoyed uninterrupted
health for many years past, aud now weighs 225
pounds, was wasted away to a mere skeleton, in
the very last stage of Pulmonary Consumption,
his physicians hav ing pronounced his case hope
less and abandoned him to his fete. He was cured
by the aforesaid medicines, and since hisrecovery
