Unfathomable aro tlio myfiierios of creation in finite of Unxley, or fcW w should have a glinjpso of the reoHoun why nlng.H and snail.i and eockrouclwH, and other creeping venom ons things, aro inflicted upon r. When, with exultation, we crush a New Jersey uioh quito, the conjecture may be purdouod why the hnzzing, blood-suckiug inHect wax ever created. Wo in the moral world, whoa we rend tnst Covode is about to bo RnnfTod out, we wonder with what aim, in the order of ProviJence, he was brought into being, and why be ha so long been permitted to buzz and, in a munll way, to sting. Jt hn Covode, M. C. for the old Nineteenth, now the Twenty-first, district of Pennsylva nia bdDg about to retire to the shades of Westmoreland, issues a farewell address to his constituents. So did Washington and Jack ie n; and so, but for an accident, would Lin coln have done. It is described by the Time as an "interesting letter;" and Forney's dailies shed abundant tears as the Covode lnminary goes down, he trusts bnt for a season. In his valedictory he does not tell us by what means he got into Congress, nor how he has kept himHe.lt' there. He has nothing to Buy about the wretched enginery of Know-Nothingisin which jerked him, and many like him, into position, nor about his friends Jlillward and llemuk. All this he passes by to give us the necrology of bis insignificant radical colleagues, stating, with admirable simplicity, that "while a num ber of Congressional fire-eaters, such as Larksdale, Keitt, Branch, Zollicoffer, and others were killed, none of the Union mem bers of Congress, except one, fell in battle." Six of those worthies hold, or have held, snug offices Colfax, Washburne, Burlingame, Spinner, Allison, and Pringle while but one, Baker, did any fighting. Covode then re cites, with mnch unction, his services in in vestigating Mr. Buohanan's navy yards, at tributing to poor Mr. Linooln the excessively silly remark that "it finished the Democratic party as a national one;'" and winds up in a strain of especial complacency by stating that he and "noble old Btn Wade" and Chandler "of the strong impnlses" where te active spirits of the Committee on the Conduct of the War, and, "as such, were made the asso ciates of "Lincoln and his Cabinet in matters pertaining to it." Now, dismissing for the moment the indi vidual Covode, this revelation of the conneo tion of the radical mischief-makers of that committee with the Lincoln Cabinet enables us to say a word, for which we have long sought an opportunity, as to the secret tri bunal of whose infamous conduct the Ameri can public has but little conception. We have often thought that by and by, when history comes to be written, the Southern soldiers will fare better than taose of the North. They, no doubt, had thtir bicker ings and heart-burnings and jealousies quite as hot and as bitter as ours. Bat they either did not wash their dirty linen at all, or they washed it in private. Not so with us. We had a Congressional committee whose business it was to listen to and record mili tary scandals, and to print them all in per pftuam rei memoriam, and now, whenever a Southern or foreign writer seeks for some matter of crimination of the North, he turns to this Covode committee reoord, and there he finds it in proof. Nowhere is this more manifest than in Eaton Cooke's exceedingly clever "Anvil and Hammer." Wade and Co vode are his main authorities. It is an inte resting subject, and we ask attention to it especially on the part of candid military stu dents. In a general way, we can say of it that we wonder any prominent man remained in the Federal service at all when subjected to such a supervision. 1 he 1' rencn J acobins sent their committees to the front, and when they could catch them, as with Custine and Biron, cut off their heads. Hoche died and Dumouriez ran away. Our Jacobins sate safely at Washington, keeping open house lor every fugitive slanderer from the camps, and co-operating "with Lincoln and his Cabi net" in defaming fighting men at a distanoe. It was not their fault that there was no physi cal decapitation. The first matter which these people under took to investigate was "Bull Kun," and it was intended that General McDowell should be the victim. He escaped, however, pretty well, for the committee had an uneasy con sciousness that the "On to Richmond" cry had something to do with the reverse; and the jolly Congressmen who had gone to the front with iced champagne and sandwiches, and their wives and daughters, perhaps sure or victory, felt that they were a little respon sioie xor wnat naa Happened; ana so, as we have said, there was no scape-goat, unless it was Tyler or Patterson. Then General MoClellan came on the soene, and from the first moment that he appeared this committee began to revile and disparage him. In his reorganization of the army and no one now questions him great merit in this he probably never bestowed a thought on the cable at the capitol. He never thought of them and did not care a straw what they thought of him. Had he been less of a soldier and more of a Washington habitat, it would have been different. Witness the luck of Dahlgren and D. D. Porter, and Moigs, and the varied Uo burg ramifications of the District of Golum bia! General McClellan's mistake, taking a practical view of the subject, was a double but a very creditable one. He treated the Congressional manipulators with contompt and yet, with the blindness of a generous spirit, be trusted with entire faith the Jiixeou tive. He thought Stanton his friend, and he bad faun in Mr. Linooln s jocular sympathy One reads now with wonder and no one, we imagine, more so than General MoClellan his joyous, affectionate telegram from Frede rick before Sharpsburgr "My respects to Airs. lAuoom. xvoceivea mom enmusi ' asticauy by tne laaiea. win send you trophies. This alter ne had been taper aeded and almost insulted by Lincoln's pet, Pope, and just before Burnside was put in his place. MoClellan had too much of the faith of the soldier, and never dreamed that, as we now learn, Covode and Wade were the confidential "associates" of the President and Secretary of War. The first attack on him was for his delay in ad vancing on Manassas; and in support of this were examined all the correspondents and poets and gossips that were at hand. Mr. Bayard Taylor said his say, telling the com mittee that Mansssas Junction looked very muoh like Borodino, as he kiadly adds, "in Russia;" and then there was a certain Uriah H. Painter, and all that sort of folks.

General Andrew Porter always directed these thing. The nritets were Mippoeed to come from General McClellau, through huu. Such is the poisonous rubbish which goes into hiutoty for some Bancroft of the twen tieth century to dig np. After the failure on the Peninsula the cloud of unmerited detraction settled more heavily on McClellan's head, and while Lin coln, serious for once, was invoking God's blessing on him "for savins the army," the President's "associates" at the Capitol were busy with their work of special defamation. Nobody ever thanked him for Antietam, and bis near friend, Fitz-John Porter, was sacri ficed without a scruplo. Holt was at hand to do what the committee directed, and Holt was Lincoln's and Stanton's willing in strument. Next came Fredericksburg; and when John Cochrane and Newton hurried to Washington to poison anew Lincoln's susceptible mind against Burnside, their earliest visit was to the committee, and they were secretly exa mined to try to prove bin incapacity, and, incidentally, that of his lieutenants on that dav of disaster Franklin and Meade. Frank lin was especially obnoxious, being the steady friend of MoClellan, and, what was quite as bad in the judgment of Covode, a Pennsyl vania Democrat. Hooker s performance was brief. He was at first rather a pet. He was no friend of MoClellan. On the 11th of March, 1803, less than two months before he was hurled back with slaughter across the Ilnppahannook, the record says that "Major- General Joseph Hooker was examined," and thus it reads: O. To what do you attribute the failure of the Peninsular campaign? A. I do not hesitate to say that it la to be attributed to the want of generalship on toe part or our commanaer. He was in hi oh feather. Poets who sneered at "Tardy George" sang odes to "Fighting Joe," and the dithyrambio, literally, of "Hookers Across was on every loyal lip. But the chance shot which knocked the house about his ears at Chancellorsville, leaving him senseless, while Jackson chased the moral Sickles and the pious Howard from the field, put an end to poor Hooker s popularity, and the Covode junta went to work to try to show, calling Henry Ward Boeoher as thoir witness, that he was drunk. It was gross in justice. isut nownere was tne spiteiui agency ot this committee more manifest than in the case of General Meade. He gained a victory and saved Washington and Philadelphia but what of that? He, too, was deceived by those be trusted. He retained near him the chief of staff of his predecessor, and the trust was betrayed. His secret counsels were revealed; and the names of the men who thus injured him were Butterfield and Plea sonton both pets of the committee, of Lin coln, and of Grant. But it was this Covode committee which fomented and promoted all this. They examined witnesses to in culpate Meade, then summoned him, and never informed him of what had been said against him. ''I understand," said General Meade, "that such and such a person has been examined against me. I demand to kno iv what they said, and to have a chance of reply" and the committee were compelled to yield. Yet, after all this, General Meade went to Georgia and did the biddings of the radi cals who once were so ready to destroy him. The only soldiers who esoaped inculpation at the bands of this committee were ilaueck, Pope, Butler, and Grant; and of the exploits of this body and bis share of it Covode is proud. We are glad of the chance his foolish 1 are well gives ns to put on reoord our judg ment on him and bis associates, and to ex press our contentment that they are fast, one by one, sinking in obscurity. THE IRISH LAND BILL. From the rail Malt Gazette. The root of the bill is incontestable the desire to prevent arbitrary exercise of the legal power of eviction, bo long as the Irish tenant is allowed to remain in his holding at his present or at any reasonable rent, he makes no complaint. If, when he gives np possession to a successor, he is allowed to bar gain with that successor tor wnat tnese two may agree the holding is worth to a tenant on such terms, he obtains the further valued privilege which is called Ulster tenant-right. The source of the mischiefs that make legisla tion necessary, and of the sympathy which Mr. Gladstone so vividly feels for the tenants. is that in some cases the landlords unjustifiably refuse these privileges. The matter in dispute, as we have thus stated it, is very simple, but we believe that Irishmen themselves will admit that it embraces every point. The object of legislation, therefore, onght to be to restrain the comparatively rare exercise by the land lord of rights which in some cases would be oppressive. And since it is only the law that gives him these powers, it is not only compe tent, but it ought to be easy, for the law to deny them. To carry such a design into effeot all that is strictly necessary is that the law should define the cases in which hardship would be experienced, and declare that in such cases its powers in aid of eviction, or of transferring possession, would be withheld And this, if done directly, is obviously a mat ter not involving obsourity or difficulty. We have bo intention of propounding a bill of our own, but we think every one will see that to enaot that eviction shall not be allowed in certain definite cases such as where the tenant had not been repaid the value of improvements, or was not suffered to transfer for valuable consideration a posses Bion for whioh he or his predecessors had given such consideration, or where the pre sent rent should be hereat ter raised above the value at which the land may be estimated. either by arbiters or in the Government valua tions would have been a straightforward and comparatively simple way of meeting the case. The propriety ot adopting merely temporary remedies to what so many consider temporary circumstances suoh as enacting that, save lor non-payment or rent or sub letting, no yearly tenant should be disturbed at all for a limited period might also have been as easily and as clearly raised for con sideration of Parliament. But instead of these direct methods of at' taming his avowed end, Mr. Gladstone has, whether through apprehension of opposition or moved by the suimity ot his own mind, chosen indirect methods. He has tried to leave, or, at least, to seem to leave, every right of property in the landlord, while ham pering its exeroise with a multitude of re straints, provisos, exceptions, penalties, and lawsuits. The first clause of the bill is in semblance direot; it converts the Ulster cub torn Into law, but then it tells no one what the TJ 1st rv custom U. Tim nt cluue, flrsc jU!im!c.l, and tow fvilLepr.Hout witiL'itvu, cave like force to any usage in any part of lielnnd which might oonsist in the landlord compensating a tenant on leaving, or (as tho amendment ran)where there was any nsage cor responding with the Ulster ou'tom. We leave tiside for the present a consideration of the roiiseqnences likely to follow from creating a iff ai right wnich is leit to a lawsuit to reduoe to definite terms. But we cannot help re marking that the proceeding is an instance of the appnrent desire to esoape from saying plainly what the bill is intended to effect. And the first result of this ambiguity was that the Government thought they had given the Ulster tenant everything he could desire, till efter some days of private meditation they came to the conclusion that they bad not, and they must bestow on him an option of taking advantage of the other clauses of the bill. It is impossible that such confusion could bave arisen if, instead of legalizing an unexplained custom, they had legalized a specific demand. But the matter becomes worse when we reach section 3. I lore. indirectly to obviate unjust evictions, the course was adopted of allowing the evicted tenant in every case to claim compensation for bis outlay in improvements or for his 'loss in quitting the holding." And to put a sort ot limit upon tnts claim, a sliding scale was invented, which might often be inadequate and often extravagant inadequate in the case of the best class of tenants, ex travagant in the case of the worst, while in every case various justice was again to be meted out by the opinion of tho local court. But once again a vital alteration, which, with its successive modifications, has wasted seve ral evenings of precious time, has been intro duced, in order to give prominenoe to the principle that a tenant is entitled to indefi nite damages for losing his employment. Yet again, however, this wide principle was to have been qualified bv section 1G, which was to enable a landlord to substitute the offer of a thirty-one years lease, "on such terms as the court shall think reasonable," to the tenant whom he has desired to evict, or who, if in Ulster, has sought to transfer his holding. Only this clause, irrational in its conception, has been first abandoned, and next promised as part of the equities clause, iiut wnen tne committee reach the next sections, which refer to compensation for improvements, they will find equally dif- ftcnit puzzles awaiting tneni in determining what are to be the conditions which are to bring them into operation, and what is to be the effect of the operation on the different classes affected. We do not attempt to push analysis into this unexplored region. Our object just now is only to enforce the fact which the consideration of the clauses has iorcea upon us in common witn so many members oi Air. iriadstone s own following. that the bill is a complicated, obscure, and ambiguous work, of which no man not even the Government fully comprehends the scope or foresees the effect. And we need not add that it is made tenfold worse by the method of thrusting the duty of explaining as well as of enforcing it on half a hundred different courts, and of bidding every land lord and tenant look not to the provisions Parliament has enacted, bnt to the chanoe of how much the court may award him, after a consideration of every "equity" whioh can be raked np from the time to which memory of man can trace bacK. SHALL WE HELP THE ALABAMA- BUILDERS r From the AT. ST. Sun. A writer in the World persists in disoussing the question of the passage of British and Canadian troops through the Sault St. Marie Canal for the purpose of the Winnipeg expe dition, xiuc tms nas never been contem plated anywhere. All that the British rulers in North America desire is to Bend their empty transports through the canal. If they can get that concession, they can send their army against Winnipeg; otherwise not. There is no other practicable route. Will the ad ministration grant them the privilege of passing their boats through the canal ? Or will it deny the permission? That is what the people desire to know. On this subject the Detroit Post speaks the universal sentiment of the United States. 'The passage of empty vessels through the canal, says that exoeilent journal, "while the troops marched around it a few miles overiana ana re-emoarKOd, would be an eva sion of the laws which would arouse indig nation tnrougnout tne JNortn. ine people of the Nortn bave no favors to show, no aid to give to the nation that built and equipped the Alabama, and warmed and cherished into life the Rebel raiders and pirates on our border during tne war: Unce more, will Mr. Fish and General Grant speak out decisively respecting this im portant matter? They cannot dodge behind the fact that the canal belongs to Miohigan. The officials of Michigan cannot exclude the empty steamboats from the canal without authority from Washington. Shall they have it? Or are we to help the Alabama builders? OOAL. PKROIVXl S. BKIX. HXWBOB KKAVa 1 lilt CIV AI E.
