OIV last Wednesday, Dec. lath Mr.
A. T. Alterman, Attorney General
of the United States, tendered his
resignation of that office,in obedience
to a verbatreq nest of the Bre:Bidet:it to
d o so. Oa the succeeding day Judge
Williams, of Oregon, was appointed
by the Piesident arak'coutimred by
the Senate. to fill the vacancy thus
created. Judge Williams is regarded
by all as a very able jurist, - and his
appointment to this responsible posi
tion meets with very general favor.
Is the annual message of thePresi
dent—po.bllshed last week—that of
timr recommends that all taxes from
internal sources be abolished, except
such as are collected from spiritous,
vinous or malt liquors, tobacco In Its
various forms, and for stamps."
Senator Sumner, has therefore, al
ready given notice that he will in
troduce a bill in the arse of a few
days for the reduction of taxation and
the abolition of the Internal Revenue
Bureau. The bill here referred to
provides for a stamp tax of Seventy
five cents per gallon on whisky', the
change to go into .operation on the
Ist of July, and the Bureau to be
abolished on the Ist of September.
If this bill beeomm a law, we like
everybody else, except the office
holders, will have that much to thank
Congress for at all events.
TILE.New York Tribune of last Sat•
unlay, says: Mr. Wm. M. Tweed
wag yesterday arrested, on an indict
ment of felony, found by the Grand
Jury, and will today be brought tie
fore Recorder Hackett, for bail or
commitment. The action thus brief
ly announced may be accepted as one
of the most important steps yet ta
, ken to hasten the downfall of the
Ring, and as presaging even -more
startling deVelopments (with other
arrests to come), than any that have
yet marked the brilliant campaign
against the thieves that have ruled
and robbed us. A bill has likewise
been found against Controller Con
nolly, for misdemeanor in office, and
the warrant for arrest in this is issued,
to provide against any potsibility of
his release on bail from his present
confinement. And even with this
the Giand Jury has not finished its
refreshing work.
DURING nearly the whole of last
week the question of reviving the
old Retrenchment Committee, whose
existence passed away with the last .
Congriss, was pp in some shape or
other in the United States Senate.
atiolislieil ? and what salaries or
allowances ought to be reduced ?"
Mr. Trumbuli's proposition was
advoctited by himself, Senators Sum
ner, Schurz Ferry, - Wilson and Tip.
- too—all Republicans ; while it en
countered fierce opposition from Seri
utors Conkling, Chandler, Morton,
Nye and FAlmonds. The, friends of
the inwsure claimed that the , Presi
dent's message sustained the effort to
have the committee revived, an
opponents, on the other hand, d
iitsn
sisted that it was an attack upon the
Administration, now a desire to
ferret out rasoilly goverotnent offi
cials, and to reduce the expenses of
the civil service, could be construed
into an attack upon the Administra

matter was first broached in the Sens

—For some years past the indebt

—the county officials being unable
or unwilling to give ark estimate of
its amount. Two years ago it was
asserted that there was no out stand

of some where near 150,000 was ad
mitted. A majority of the Commis
sioners, however, steadily resisted
any legal investigation of the facts.
Now that the political character of
the board is changed by the election
of some republican members, new
books are to-be opened, and the af
fairs of the county are to be conducted
according to business principle*.

his .pre.sent condition of ignorancis?
Anu there arises another grave ques
tion. What kind of a Creator- must
Ho be, whose work, after six thous
and years of i mprovement, is no Netter
than arc Ulatlkijkl, as a race, to-day?
Must not a Creator, whose work, af
ter six thousand years 'progres.ilOn,'
Is yet so imperfect, be either weak,
ignorant or wicked? These are ques •
dons that stand hi the way of this
"progressive" theorizing, and pro
voke the inquiry whether, after all
our searching, we shall not be forced
to say with the wisest men, " Lo,'
this only:hare I found, that God ha th
made man upright, 'but they have
sought out many in ven tions?”—Ecel.

sion that °uremia was a rare excep
tion. But we .were mistaken, Mr.
Register, and all the consolation the
gentleman gets from the above state
ment he_is welcome to.
But we wish to pursue this subject
a little further. Do office seekers
know the extent to which they are
indebted to their partizan journal?
Itthey do not, we give them duatio:
tice that we intend to inform, them.
And before we praceed further; we
desire to have it distinctly under
stood, that our enterprise—the pub-
Mallon of this paper—is a private en=
terprise, as much so as the telegraph,
the intelligence office, the mercan
tile agency, the store, the mill, or the
blacksmith shop. Our business ena
bles us to reach the ear of the public,
and as a means of spreading intelli
gence, is considered the best, and as
such, to us it beromes a source of
profit. We charge specified rates for
certain space, and we faithfully ad
here to the terms unless we may,
'like the miller, storekeeper, or black
smith, come to the conclusion to do it
gratuouslx. No ope will gainsay our
right to elihrge. This being the case,
we have as much' right to charge one
man as another. If we charge the
farmer, the mechanic, the artisan,
the shopkeeper, why should we not
charge the office-keeper ? The object
of all is—money.
The public beinginformed 'that our
enterprise Asa private one, we will
now pay our respects to the politician.
Do you think. sir, because we advo
cafe the principles., of a certain party,
that It is our duty So-further, gratui
tously, all the little schemes which
you may conceive for your personal
advancement? If you do, let us as
sure you that every other member of
the party, in the country, has just
as much right to ask• the same for

often third-rate men, without com

a great presumption for' any one 'to
expect any thing of th.e kind, and yet
pine-tenths of the politicians, of the
thty, expect to be constantly kept be

will fill it with ;natter of more gen
eral interest to the public.
[ NVe will now turn our attention to
,
the candidate-for office, or, in other
words, to the gip - seeker, who Way
/Or may not belitician :
poses that the moment he rece
the party nomination it is the duty
of the partizan journal to place his
name atthe head of its editorial col
umns and display' it there, advertise
him to the world, week after week,
until the close of the eimpaign ; giv
ing him at least twenty dollars worth
of advertising, on account or the par
ty, which never pays anything. This
is a grand mistake. We are tinder no
obligations te doanything, ofthe kind.
It, is our duty to vindicate the grin
; dole and measures of the Party, he
muse we have espoused them and
firmly believe in them, but support
ing Bill .cones or John Smith is
quite another thing. These gentl
men are availing, themselves of, t e. he
patty to receive honors and emolu
ments. It is a private speculation
with them, and the;* are in the 'same
categori,, , with us. What right. then,
have they to ask us to advertise
them, recommend them to the public
favor, find a thousand i excuses lor
their s g
hortcomins. and place them
in the mouths of the public so that
they may not lose votes, without
paying us for the services we thus
render them ? It is a foul imposi-,

the practice long ago, anti it is time ,
that the country press followed in iiS
footsteps. We have defended and
advocated the cause of men, through
the eolnms of our paper, for the sev
eral offices, and when elected, we
have received a paltry fee for "print
dog tickets," for which we had ren
dered a fair equivalent in tickets,
that would scarcely pay for the pen

services, and in the future the tnan
who receives personal support; over

We will not be unreasonable with
any one, but we shall charge suffi

OUR 'WASHINGTON LETTER.

The weather is again delightfully
fair, and pleasure rides, and prome
nade through the day, and attending
places of amusements and wafting on
M. C's. at night are all the rage. .
The nomination of Ex-Congress

sidered thOest, that could possibly
have been made.
Senator Conklin presented a memo
rial, numerously signed by citizens of
New York, asking some recognition,
by pension or otherwise, of theservi
ces rendered by women during the'
late war of the rebellion in the ca
pacity of nursee in• hospitals and in
the field. The Committee on Pen
sions, to which it was referred, it is
thought, will first determine before
making a report, bow many such
(galena it would be necessary to antis
fylp ease there should be madn a fa.'
vorable report.
The )3111 concerning the eight hour
law' which has been pending from
the:last Session, providing that there
should be no deduction from the
usual day's pay on account of the
rednction of the time, was tailed Up
to day in the Senate, and after suf
ficient discussion to Indicate a strong
opposition to it, it was referred to

Senators Trumbull and Schurz to ap
point ncommittee, whose duties shall
be to go through the different depart
tnents to investigate the• miscellane
ous charges of corruption ; and in the
Republican caucus yesterday, it is
said, that these gentieinen expressed
themselves as wishing the country to
know that they were first and fore
most in advocating suchlpvestiga
tion. There certainly can t no rea
son why proper investigation should
not be sanctioned, but whether sueh
men as Senators Trumbull and Schurz
should dictate as the prime moversln
the matter for political capital when
it is well understood here that the
President and the Heads of the dif
ferent Departments are desirous that
Congress should at once throw around
them safe guards whereby frauds may
be entirely prevented, is a question.

Those portions of the Catecazy's

what the public now wants to know,
and neither Secretary Fish or Sena

press anything connected with the
case whether or not It may have any
bearing on the subject. The quid

The brief stay of Alexis in Wash

BEING FOR DIVORCE' UV PROXY.
Are Insane Husband Allowed to Bring
Sail Against His Wife by Next
Friend.
Judge Ciirdoza, of New York City,
has rendered his decision in the Ap
pleton divorce suit, in which an in
sane husliancl sues through others for
It divorce. The suit was brought in
1565, for divorce against Amelia
Warner, otherwise called Amelia
Appleton. The defendant had been
previously married to Wm. Warner,
who left her and. went to California.
In 1864 she instituted a suit for di
vorce from 'Warner in Indiana, and
on April 26 Of that year obtained the
decr W
charge ee that she married Appleton in
March before the decree was obtain
ed. Warner, whom she believed to
be dead. subsequently proved to be
alive.; Later still, Mr. Appleton be
came insane, and was removed to an
asylum, and his brothers began this
present suit in his name fora divorce.
James T. Brady appeared for the
wife, anti made nearly his last argu
ment in themes. Two motions were
made sortie months ago before Judge
Cardona at a Special Term of Su
preme-Court, one by the defendant to
strike out the complaint as not being
authorized by the plaintiff, the other
by Daniel S. Appleton , theplaintiff's
brother, to oine his next
friend to conduct the suit. Judge
Cardona hay rendered the following
opinion in substance
Of course, if the plaintiff' were sane,
the motion to strike from the files
would ece3sarily fail, and the real
question pnsvuted to me is, what
sbou/d tie done upon the substantial
when fact that the plaintiff was
when the suit at
instituted, and;
Still continues to
me , insane? T
Question has given m more troublehe
'.,y.'~~~'`L . sr' = .nFkSE~ilS~s~rF - f;s~;us"L> :; ..
than almost Any that has ever been
presented to me, principally because
of the doubt that. entertained es to
the proPriety of allowing . any one
but the plaintiff himself to elect - on a
matter which seems so- personal to
him; and to concern his individual
idappiness, whether his marriage
hould be declared void ornot. That
ection was strenuously urged by
the, defendant's counsel, and — I felt
this point to be one of great delicacy
and importance, and the , researches
of the counsel on either side failed to
supply me with any case bearing op
that view. Within the last few days,
however, I have found a case in
which the question wail directlYprz
sented, and decided by Sir,Willi*
Scott, in Parnell against Parnell, 2d
Haggerty, Condensed Repbrts, 169,
which was a suit brought to obtain a ,
diyorce an the ground of the adul
tery of the wife. The bill was filed
oti the part of the husband, who was
a lunatic, by his committee. ' It was,
among other things, argued that the
court "would not entertain a com
plaint of this nature, which depends
so much on the acts and disposition
of the husband, on a suit instituted
by any other pumas." but Sir Wil
liam Scott allowed it to be prosecu
ted in the nettle of the Committee,
and cited the (woof First vs. Bow
erman, a +Suit to annul a marriage, as
a vrecedent. He said if any other ,
rulia applied, the wire of a lunettc
would have free license to commit
adultery, and that no injury could
ensue from allowing the case to pro
ceed, because thelunatic '
if he re
cover. may either condone the offense
or stand on what has been done for
him (Portsmouth vs. Portsmouth.)
In this case a similar course was ta
ken (Bowden, 2d Swab and First
417.) It follows from these cases that
the Court will permit the action to
be prosecuted in behalf of the lunatic
by some one representing him, al
though it is a cue in which it seems
that he has to make an election, and
that being so, the motion to appoint 1
next friend should be granted, the
cause to proceed in the name of the
lunatic by next friend, and upon
that being done, the motion to strike
from thefiles should be denied. Or
dered accordingly. ' I

worthy of becoming hiStorical. The
meeting of Blucher and Wellington
