STOWAGE OF WORK AT THE NA VY
YARDS.
Bt ft spaoial despatch from Washington,
printed in another column, it will be seen
that the Secretary of the Nary has issued an
order for the discharge of the workmen in
all the navy yards of the coantry employed
by the Bureaus of Construction and Repair
a nd Steam Engineer ing. These bureaus employ
ft rery large majority of the men in the yards,
and the effect of the order, which will go into
effect after the 31st inst., will be to throw
about eleven thousand persons out of employ
ment, in the middle of winter and without
warning. The Secretary's reason for this
action is certainly satisfactory so far as it
goes, although it shows that there is a screw
loose somewhere. The appropriations for
the bureaus named have been exhausted, and
having no money to pay its workmen, the
Navy Department had no alternative but to
discharge them. It is impossible to estimate
the suffering that will be caused by this order.
Those eleven thousand workmen represent
besides themselves very many women and
children who are dependent npon their labors
for a subsistence, and for this immense num
ber of persons to be doprived of their means
of living in the middle of the winter, and
when trade of every kind is dull and employ
ment is hard to obtain, is a most distressing
ciroumBtanoe, which certainly demands prompt
action on the part of Congress.
The question in which the public are in
terested is, Who is responsible for the dis
charge of these men at this time ? The ex
penditure of the public money by the Navy
Department has been sharply criticized in
more than one quarter lately; and ex-Secretary
Welles, in his letter to Secretary Robe
son whioh we published a short time ago,
charged in very explicit terms that many of
the boasted improvements of the present ad
ministration have been made by an extrava
gant use of the public f uuds such us he never
dared to attempt. It has been said that the
Secretary will not reply to the charges
of Mr. Welles. Can he reply to them ?
If the stoppage of work at the
navy yards is owing to a want of foresight
and a proper economy of the menus at the
disposal of the department, Congress and
the public have a right to know all the cir
cumstances of the case, and we hope that
-measures will be taken to investigate the
matter thoroughly, in order to fasten the
responsibility on the proper parties. Any
reador of Mr. Welles' letter will easily per
ceive that its criticiims are directed not so
much at the Secretary, as at his chief adviser,
who, in the popular estimation at least, is to
blame for all the bad management that has
made the Navy Department so unpopular of
bate; and it certainly seems as if Vice-Admirnl
Porter had done mischief enough for any one
man, and that it was high time he was re
lieved from his position of prompter to tlio
Secretary.
With regard to the workmen Congress cer
tainly ought do something immediately to
relieve them from the impending calamity,
and to prevent such a number of persons
from being thrown on the cold charity of the
world at this inclement season of the year.
If it is imperatively necessary that all or any
of the men should be discharged, there
should be longer notice given, so that they
may have time to look about them and secure
other employment if any is to be had.
FALSIFYING THE RECORD.
The lion. Jackdaw Dawes, of Massachusetts,
has taken naturally to the expression, "the
other end of the avenue," in much the same
spirit that it was used by the late Thaddeus
Stevens when Andrew Johnson was "the man
at the other end of the avenue," instead of
llysses S. Grant. The New York World has
also fallen into the habit of republishing
Dawes' speeches as they appear in fidl in the
Congressional Globe. These two circum
stances show how successful has been the
Massachusetts champion of economy in ex
posing to the public view the inside of his
coat. But this point is immaterial at present.
The World, in giving the full text of Dawes'
speech to the public, "as revised by himself
for publication in the Congressional Globe,"
does not fail to observe, editorially, "that in
the revision some of the pungent passages
V which were evoked by , interruptions are
'materially toned dotcn, while the statistical
portions are fuller than, those of the speech
as originally delivered." ' In other words,
Dawes delivered one speech in the House,
and prints quite another speech in the Globe.
The practice in whioh Dawes has indulged
is one of long standing, of luch long rtanding,
in fact, that not a solitary volume of the pon
derous series of the Globe will be of any prac
tical value to the historian who desires, a
century hence, to give a faithful picture of
the temper and manners of our national law
makers. It is true that the men who tamper
with the reoord of Congress in this wholesale
fashion are not mch adepts in the art as the
illustrious Bergner, of Ilarrisbnrg, whose
success, in "toning down" the Legislative
Reeord we have been called upon in the post
to notice and commend; but they are suffi
ciently up in the business to render the Globe
practically worthless, and worse than worth
less. A man who cannot give utterance to
two consecutive sentences that make sense
figures on the official record as the most
fluent and rhetorical of orators; while another,
who cannot open his m outh except to show that
he does not possess the faintest characteristics
of a gentleman, goes down to posterity as a j
perfect pattern of gentility. The practice of
permitting members to spread upon the pages
of the Globe column after column of transpa
rent buncombe, whioh has never boen
delivered, saves the time of Congress,
and consequently the money of the poople,
bad as it is as ft means of squandering in one
direction the pittance that Is saved in another.
But this is comparatively harmless when con
trasted with the prevailing custom of "toning
down" the asperities of debate, and patohing
up the weak points ef an argument that was
actually delivered.
The Covgremonal Globe, if it wera a faith
ful record of what transpires in the two houses
of Congress from day to day, would be worth
at least as much as it need oojt, if not as
much as it does cost the country; but as long
as this "toning down" is indulged in, it an
swers merely as ft leak to the Treasury, in
addition to being a perverted reoord of the
times. Let Congress pass a stringent law
prohibiting the altering, omitting, or insert
ing of ft single word in the Globe, and there
will not only be a material saving in the item
of expense, but a "material toning down" of
the asperities of debate.
THE MONROE DOCTRINE.
The negotiations upon the subject of the an
nexation of San Domingo have revived the
interest in the Monroe doctrine and caused ft
raking up of the various schemes of territo
rial expansion which have been agitated in
the past. It is unnecessary to refer to the
acquisition of the territory of the Mississippi
valley from France, thot of the Florida penin
sula from Spain, or that of Texas, California,
New Mexico, and the adjacent districts from
Mexico, all of which were wisely consum
mated, and tended greatly to promote the
best interests of the territories annexed to
the United States, as woll as the prosperity of
the nation as a whole. In each of these cases
the policy of annexing contiguous territory
was adhered to, and there was a direct
prospect of a return eommensnrate with the
outlay involved.
In December, 1822, and Boon after the Con
trol American States achieved their inde
pendence, the Congress of San Salvador pro
ceeded to declare that it was part and parcol
of the United States. So preposterous was
this measure regarded by men of all parties
in this country, that no notice whatever was
taken of the declaration, and San Salvador failed
most signally either to annex herself to the
United States or to annex the United States
to horself. The project, however, was not
abandoned, and as late as the year 1849, the
representatives of the republics of San Salva
dor, Nicaragua, and Honduras assembled at
Leon and tendered to our minister the ces
sion of these three States. The minister,
having no authority to entertain Such a pro
position, could only promise to call the at
tention of this Government to it, which he
did without securing any response whatever.
About tho same time, however, the Hon.
. G. Squier, as the representative of tho
United States, concluded with Honduras a
treaty for the protection of the proposed
Nicaraguan Canal, and signed a convention
by which the islaud of Tigu, which com
manded the Bay of Fonseca, was to be oeded
to this country as a naval station in further
ance of the canal project. A great uproar in
Great Britain was the result, the authorities
of that country professing to see in this a
bold attempt at counteracting the seiz
ures in Central America in which thoy
had recently indulged. A violent corre
spondence between the representatives of
the two countries at Washington and London
ensued, resulting in the abandonment by
Great Britain of its aggressive policy, as the
only terms on which the United States would
consent to let fall the Tigu project. Still
later there was a revival of the Control Ame
rican annexation scheme, Senor Barrundia
having been sent to Washington in the year
1855 to negotiate the consolidation of Hon
duras with the United States, but dying soon
after he reaohed this country and before he
could begin his negotiations.
These are the only serious attempts on
record of projects for the annexation to the
United States of territory not contiguous
thereto, until Mr. Seward launched forth in
his grand career as an annexationist, saddled
the icebergs of Alaska on the nation before it
was aware of what he was up to, and endea
vored to steal a similar maroh in the oase of
the volcanoes and tidal waves of St. Thomas,
but in vain.
BERGNER CHOKED OFF FROM THE
TREASURY.
The State Senate yesterday had under con
sideration Robin O'Bobbin Bergner's projeot
for making his usual raid upon the Treasury,
and the charges heretofore made in these
columns were repeated by Mr. Lawry, who
said that the Leginlatioe Record "had been so
manipulated that it ceased to be a oorreot
record of the proceedings;" that the publisher
was "a man of infamy ;" and that he feared
that the faot that Bergner had been foroed
upon the people of Ilarrisbnrg (as Post
master) would have a damaging effect, at the
coming eleotion, upon the Republican party."
Immediately after this speech the Senate
agreed, by a vote of 1G to 15, to indefinitely
postpone the consideration of a contract for
the continuance of the Reeord in a modified
form. We trust that the whole subjeot is thus
disposed of for the session, but we
regret that so large a number of Republican
Senators voted for the Bergner scheme. We
can understand the policy of a portion of the
Democrats in endeavoring to refasten this
insatiable leeoh upon the Treasury and then
charging the responsibility upon the Repub
licans, but while honest men of all parties
should unite in proctooting the public money
against his unprincipled schemes, it is spe
cially important, in the present state of pub
lic sentiment, that Republican Senators and
Representatives should cease to be his
accomplices. Bergner's character is
now getting to be well understood
throughout the Commonwealth, and
it is ft serious charge against ft powerful poli
tical organization that by any combination of
oiroumstances such a man can be treated as
its pampered pot. Destitute of the ability to
render any real service to the party, and using
it only for his personal enrichment, con
tinued offerings to his greed cannot fail to
arouse the indignation of the people. No
legislator Bhonld pause in his reformatory
efforts through fear of Bergner's diatribes.
His assaults are now read inversely by all
intelligent citizens, and he can damage men
only by bis praise. Hereafter, if the action
of the Senate is sustained, the session will
long be gratefully remembered for the good
work of choking Bergner off from the
Treasury.
TDK RESTORATION OF THE SPAN-
1SII DOURRONS.
The Bourbons have yet a foothold in Spain,
and the chances that the family will ulti
mately regain possession of the throne are
much improved by the action of the Cortes
yesterday, when the proposition to exolude
them was defeated by the decisive vote of 1G1
to 88. This will materially advance the
prospects of the Duke of Montpensier, who is
now, however, figuring in the not very re
Rpeotable rck of a candidate for a seat in the
Cortes who is likely to be defeated by a Re
publican opponent. In spite of this, how
ever, it is not more than probable that Mont
pensier and his wife the sister of Isabella
II may be seated on the throne
because anybody else can be found to fill it.
It is not impossible, however, that the Em
peror Napoleon will use all his influeuce to
prevent any such result as this, as he has
strong objections to the advancement of any
member of the Orleans family. On the occa
sion of the recent Cabinet imbroglio caused
by the resignation of the Ministry when the
family of the Duke of Genoa refused to
allow him to become a candidate for the
throne of Spain, the Emperor Napoleon
spoke fn very severe terms to Senor Olozaga,
the Spanish ambassador at Paris, on the
state of affairs in his count ry. He said that
Spain was disgraced in the eyes of
Europe, and that Portugal was com
plaining thnt socialist and communist
theories were being preaohed in Spain, adding
that France also had a right to make the same
complaints. Tho Emperor then said signifi
cantly thot up to the present time he had not
interfered in Spanish affairs, but that tho
existing state of affairs must cease as soon as
possible. This was certainly very plain talk,
and it is very likely tbat it was the imme
diate cause of the action of the Cortes yester
day. That they have mended matters, how
ever, it is not easy to see; and the election of
Montpensier may and very likely will afford
the Emperor a reason for interfering, even
if it does not give him an excuse that
he will care to avow to the world.
Spain is certainly in a very bad
way at present, but unsatisfactory as is the
administration of the provisional govern
ment, the restoration of the Bourbon family
cannot be esteemed other than a calamity of
the first magnitude, but then if none of the
other European princes will take the throne
once gloriously filled by such monarchs as
Ferdinand and Isabella, what are they to do?
unless indeed they take the advice we have
frequently given them, and invite some smart
Yankee to' come over and king it for them so
as to give them a fresh start in the world.
What a Congressman Costs. Mr. Dawes,
in presenting to the House of Representa
tives the Legislative, Executive, and Judicial
Appropriation bill, presented a recapitulation
of the amounts appropriated by it, showing
that the committee had lopped off $2,092,413
from the estimates, leaving but $19,203,097
to be taken from the Treasury. The figures,
even after this revision, will bear a profitable
investigation, and show that President Grant
and his Cabinet are not responsible for every
dollar of the people's money that is recklessly
squandered. A full Senate consists of seventy
four members, and their united expenses,
including compensation, mileage, officers,
and "contingencies," amount to $057,258,
or $8882 for eaoh member. The House,
when all the States are fully represented, as
they soon will be, and including the dele
gates from the Territories, numbers 251 mem
bers, whose expenses similar to the above
foot up $1,903,613, whioh gives $7581 to
each. In both cases the amounts are exclu
sive of the burdens entailed upon the oountry
by tho franking abuse, the printing of worth
less documents, the interest on the cost of
the gorgeous edifice which was built for the
accommodation of Congressmen, and various
other items which are "too numerous to men
tion," as well as some that do not expose
themselves to the vulgar gaze. If a Con
gressman's salary of $5000 embraced all, or
even half, of the expense to which the coun
try is subjected by his Congressional exist
ence, he would be almost a profitable insti
tution. Thk Philadelphia peleoation in the Na
tional nouse of Representatives are working
earnestly to secure the prompt passage of the
bill for the transfer of the Navy Yard to
League Islaud, for which they are entitled to
the cordial thanks of their constituents. The
United States is now without a first-class
naval station such as the necessities of the
service demand, and the merits of League
Island for this purpose have been demon
strated so eften that it would be useless to
refer to them if it were not for the
factious opposition of the disappointed
advocates of other sites. The Government
requires a first-class navy yard, within
easy distance of the sea, and yet so far inland
as to be protected from hostile attack. These
qualifications, together with fresh water for
the preservation of the iron -clads, are all em
braced in the League Island Bite, and by no
other place in the country that would afford
the propor facilities for carrying on the ope
rations of such a depot. The transfer will
be little or no actuul expense to the Govern
ment, and, as it is admitted on all bides that
it must be made some time, there is no good
reason why Congress should delay action mn
this bill.
Those CoNForNnm) Trrr.s. This morning
a contemporary explains that the types yes
terday made him say something like "oayenuo
and sourkrout" chaenn a sougout," instead
of "cfiacwn a eon gmt," by which he means
"cJiocvn a son gout." There, you see, the
types ore entitled to no confidence. There is
an erratum somewhere, to this effect: "For
His Grace, the Duchess of Buckingham," read
HJife, the Duke."
