This give* the rads 1 majority in the seoata. There was a livtly time ia tb* Keo lucky senata, en tha maroiag of 27th ult.

Douglas*, or any other negro can be elected to the presidency of the I'nited State?, but Carl Shuri or Gen. Jus. Shield? cau not, because born on foreign soil. This ia a stigma upon our country, and to it wipe eut, the proposed 16th amendmeut should be adopted, which would be nothiug more than placing a naturalised foreigner upon au equal footing with the negro in this country. But strange aud in consistent as it tnay seem, the radical party which brayed so long and to loud ibr negro equality, now opposes the adoption of the 16lh amendment, after giving all the rights possessed hy a native born American. Is this true statesmanship? All the nigger congressmen voted against the proposed 16th amendment, by which a foreigner ia made eligible to the Presidency. This shows that the black statesmen have no high ap preciation of the "equality" doctrine which raised them to an equality witb the white man. or elae they lack a proper understanding of it. Sambo evidently thinks that he is better than a white foreigner, and that lbs Irish man and the German ia not a "man and a brethtr," as is the African. lu another column lb readers of the REPORTER will find the doing* of the liberal republican* of Missouri, in state convention. Thi* movement, ■* for mid able, has struck terror into the tanks of the corrupt crew of t Grant • tfiw holders. Ws have no doubt if the honest portion of the republican* had the power. Grant and hi* cor rupt administration would soon be ended. We honor republican* who boldly strike for reforaa. Let reform in the administration of our affair* be the watchword of all honest men, of whatever party, and let it be car ried to the polia, for it ia high time that the rascalg, republican or dem ocrats, be put down. The Newspapers Cause Presldenl Grant to Coma Down. The President has given hi* check for SSOOO to balance his little ac count which has been standing against him in the Treasury department since he was an armyjofficer. This shows the influence of the press. Thi* defalcation of Grant'* dates backto the Mexican war. Pres ently the newspaper* got to find it out, and published it; Grant became ashamed, aud accordingly, a few day* ago, sent in hi* check for the SSOOO, which he thought bad gone into for getful ness. But he should also be made to pay the interest, which would have been demanded from any other citizen. Proposed New Railroad. We understand, saystbe Lewistown Democrat, that arrangements are being made for building a branch road from Adamshtirg, on the line of the Sunbury and Lewistown RR.. nurthwaidly across Mid lie C're k Va ley, (passing soutii of Trexelville,) tbencc east wardlv thraugh C-entreville, where the line crosses Penn's Creek, and thence north-eastwardly to Mifflinburg, where it will connect* with the Lewisburg, Centre and Hprueo Creek RK. This new link will be only 16 miles in length, and will reduce the distance from Lewisburg to Lewietowu and all point* west at least 12 miles over all other routes, and open up a large num ber of iron-ore beds, is well as a large lumber trade. Many prominent citi zen- i.f lewisburg are urging this pro ject, and its speedy accomplishment is among the things eutirely probable. The formal opening of the Muncy Creek Railway took place on Tues day of last week, the 16th instant This road connects tbo Phila. and Erie road, at Muncy. with tbo Cata wiata road, at Hall's Basin, and is part of the link of ninety miles, "conned ing Bingham ton with Williamsport, taking in the coal mines, other miner al deposits and vast timber regions in Quilivan county, and completing an important trunk railway from Boston to Pittsburg, almost on the air-lino be tween these points."

This mov is gottei. up and favored by interested partita, and sordid **d fishnet* is at the bottom of it, and this spirit will attempt to have it put through tbe Legislature ami made a law. No honest, fairmiudrd editor will fa vor such a propositi*!* -it u oulv the sordid, seltish, sneak thief, sheep faced Shy lock, who would steal the pennies from his dead grandmothers eyes, and sell his sou! to the devil for a little filthy lucre, that would have the impudence to favor such a law. From what we gather of the pub lished proceeding* of the lata editorial convention at Hnrrisburg there weie such narrow minded, M-ltuh shcepfacts prewent, to disgrace the crafl, by favor ing the enactment of such a law I'pou this shtepface principle, no paper outside of Washington city should have any advertising coming from the national government, and no paper outside of Harrisburg have a crumb of advertising coming from the state government. Suppose this latter be proposed, how would the sheepfaced, sneak-thief Shylucks, who prwpuse to monopolize the county ad vertising, and bv iaw cut out the pub lishers outside the county towns hew 1 and raise their hands iu holy horror ? Yet the principle is just the same. We expect there aie interested par ties in tbe legislature, who will try help themselves by assisting in the passage of such an act. Such a law is uncalled for. There is uo justice iu it- There is uo wis dom i;> it. There is no reason for.it. It is siuiplv an outrage. It is meaner fhau the lowest order of nepotism and tbe quintessence of sorduiism. As a matter of course, none but a narrowiuindtd county-town Shyl ck would advocate so unfair a law, ami no faiuuinded legislator will give it his vote. We will venture, that could the brain of those selfish sheep faces, who fa core-1 such a proposition iu the editorial convention, lie exam ined, it would be found cramped up and contracted like the mouth of a green persiinon eater. We trust the legislature will show its good sense by voting dowu such a propositi.n, in'spite of interested mem hers who may favor it. This matter can not be bettered, I and that is not the intention bv such | a bill —the bidden intention is to en able some to grasp and monopolize all i to the exclusion of other parties. New York Custom House. GRANT THIXKA LEST HELD AS OF FICE. The corrupt ignorauce, not ignorant corruption says the World, which pre vails at the White House, babbles about Leet's office in the Custom- House, aud that he may be removed. Leet was appointed to no office. He put him up for a job. Leet was not even a warehouseman when he began to receive inccme from general-order business. He neither owned nor was proprietor then of a tint Class 111. warehouse. He was forced upon Bix by as a copartner by Grant. He did neither work uor anything else. Sub sequently he did become a proprietor, with Abe Wakeman and Shed Shook aa boudsmen. But eveu then he was not an officer of (he customs nor more than is a cart man. And yet Grant and bis partisans talk as if the civil service reform touched Class 111. warehouses, aud which of the latter the Collector, "on approval of the Sec retary of the Treasury," shall desig nate to receive general order merchan dise. Gentleman, you can't in this way conceal your nastineas, or remove its odor! The transaction of Grant, Por ter, Jtidge Deut, Bout well, Grinoell and Murphy, was a bold job, unre deemed by a single palliatiug feature. Just *s much a job as if Grant owned the beneca quary and ordered all the stone used on government works to he purchased of him at his prices! Put that in your pipes and sinoke it ! The -Sua says that one of the most experienced public men of this city estimates the profits of the General Order robbery of New York mer chant* now enjoyed by Major Leei's •'mess 'at over a million of dollars a year. Divided into four shares, this would give two hundred ami fifty thousand dollars for each purtuer, enough to enable ea-h one to buy and stock a farm near Si. Ixuis every year. Leel, one of < iiant's |>et* who i* said to be coining money out of the New York merchants, is thus shown up In die Tribune, of that city : "Leet continued to hung about the Wtiite House and draw- full pay ami allowances as a colonel in the U*ulai army till August .Ith, 1870, more than a year after he had had obtained con trol in good part of the "general order" business here. Then he resigned, tak ing the benefit of an ai l of C'o<)K ro *" which offered a year's pay and extras to those army officer* w ho would do so. He wss thus actually paid a* Colonel up to August .lib, 1871, by which time he and his confederates in the en joymeut of this "plum" must have gouged at least *2OO,HM out of the commerce of this port, a sum which we presume they have since raised to quarter of a million dollars."

S Senate, Jan. 22nd The amnesty bill calm up * unfin ished business. Mr Edmund* (Rad , Vt.l had the floor, hut was itnahle, owing to ather engagements, to pro ceed with hi* remarks. Mr. llsv is (Dem , Kv ) moved to Inv aside the Amm-tv hill iufnuuilly for the purpose ul taking up his use lution directing the lommittee on Uetrenchmeiit to impure whether the President lias conferri d public uffiees of trustor profit in return lor presents, and lias been guilt* of other miscoit duel. He ottered a dualities I ioU nt il ( direeting the committee to iiiipure inioj the expediency ot l'..ngies passing a law forbidding auy prison iu the ser vice at the United Stairs to receive anv gift or to appeuit any ot his rela | lives to office. . j Messrs Conkling ( Had., N Y.) and: Mortou (Had , Ind ) were willing U have the resolution takt-U up, but uoi by laving the Amnesty bill aside in formally, liecause that would enable any Senator to cut off the debate by calling for the regular order. Mr, Sumner opposed laying 11 e Amnesty bill aside otherwise than it* formally, and thought that Mr. Da vis ought to be allowed to t*k up bis resolution and make hi* speevh in this the ordmsrv wav. Mr Cunkling said that this was a verv extraordinary resolution, and lf desired whenever it should be taken up it should be fully discussed and pressed to vote, so that the judgement of the American Senate might be promptly given upon it* merits and us propriety. Mr. Davis 1 cwiml* tbst this resolution i#a very extraordinary one; but 1 insist that the subject and the occasion of it aie very extia ordinary too, iLaughter.) liicy sie amply sufficient to justify the reolu tiou—at least, they are so iu mv judg ment, and I decide questions of propri ety for myself. Mr. Davis than quo ted from Mr. Conkiing's speech ou the retreuchmeut debate belure th* recess, in which lie said that whenever any body should propose any inv.*stiguii<>u aimed at either individuals or officials, or would point out anv branch of tbe public service, he (Mr. (aukling) w..uld tavor the most radical and sweeping investigation thai could be devised, and said : "Now, here is a branch of the public service ueeding investigation. 1 have proposed this resolution on my own responsibility, and whatever may be the scandal of it 1 atu ready to bear it. I want the king of the political forest as well us the lesser beasU to be investigated. ( Laughter.) I waul the committer to investigate "the lion in hi* Jen. The Douglas in hi* hall*,' and. for one, 1 urn disposed to lead a march to beard that liou iu hi* den. (Laughter.) The office of Chicl Kxe cutive Magistrate is said to be the fountain of houor ; but it is the fouri- uiu of dishonor, of abuse and corrup tion in our country. 1 want it puri tied by free, manly, unfettered, and, unfaltering investigation. AN hat have we seen wltltiu a few days! '/' Ac President of the I'nited Statet published a* a defaulter to the amount of four or lire thonsana dollars for upuarcU of twenty yean. I presented ray resolu tion. The newspapers opened upon him, and at last, driven by the denun ciations of the vipers, or some other cause, he was forced to come forward and male good the amouut of his defal cation." Mr. Sherman suggested that the Senator (Mr. Davis was discussing the merits ef his resolution, although it was not befere the Senate. Mr. Davis —Then I will not pursue that line of remark. Mr. Sherman said that the Senator from Kentucky (Mr. Davis; must know that when he offered a resolu tion arraigning the President in this ! way, it roust give rise to a general die cussiou. He was willing to postpone the Amnesty bill, with the ing that this resolution was to take its, place until disposed of, aud he gave notice to the friend? of the Amnesty bill that he would not agree to hare it taken up again until they shall have made up their minds to stand by it and presa it to a vote. Mr. Thurman advised Mr. Davis to withdraw his motion, as to press it would plainly give rise to a long and probably excited debate, which would postpone the Amnesty bill. Mr. U. said he knew it would give rise to a debate, aud he was prepared for the most exciting debate that could arise t Laughter.) But be did not wish to autagouize it against the Am nesty bill, and therefore he would withdraw it uow, but would soon again bring it before the Senate. . Tb Passive Policy in Wttehing ton. I Our special Washington despatches . state that at the democratic coiigre* sioual caucus last night there was an expression favorable to the passive policy "so far as national politics arc • concerned." The dispatch adds ;j "No movement looking to any coali t tiou or conference for the next nation ai convention was made." The truth is, whatever expression ' was had, outside of a consideration of . matters before congress, was merely , accidental; and while wc are, of course, gratified to know that the ' members of the detnocalic party in • our natioual council* are favorable to • the Missouri, or passive policy, yet we! would be deceiving our readers not to I tall them, at the same time, that the j caucus was not called to act upon this ( question, and that the democratic con-; gressiiten have uot assumed, as will be , I charged, dictate to the party ill ring I the agency of a close caucus. Never theltsa, their voice is entitled to lim weight a- coming from men enjoyinj good opportunities to scan the a hpli political Hituation, and it |>csM-e> great value n imiicating the seuli uienta of promim nt individual* p< * Musing influence in their rent ectiv localities, it tr, "no far u national politics are concerned," that the pas sive policy chiefly applies. We hart re|>eatdly explaine<l that it tignifiet no abandonment by the democracy oj advantages already possessed, or read ily attainable, its meaning is con cisely stated by the Chicago Times, "it does not contemplate an abandon ment of the democratic patty organi zation, hut simply a withdrawal or retirement of that organization where ever, with relation to the republican party organization, it represents the popular minority. It would, then, be a withdrawal of the national democratic party organization, apd a corrrspopd ing withdrawal of the state and local organizations it) all the states, congres sional districts and lesser constituen cies where the democratic party in cludes only a minority cfull the vo ters composing tin constituency.

Jrffimn City, January 1 —The Lib eral Republican Mtu Convention met In tbe tlall of Representatives at ai>on. and ii one of tbe largest ever assembled in the Stale. It vat called to order by Colonel Win. M. Or trenur, chairman of tba Lib eral ltepubliras State CvmniUrr. Judge Gebo It, of Grundy county, vu elected lent|>o ary President, and Colonel Lewder, Secretary. Judge Debolt made a brief ■peerh, in which be refered t the Work before the Convention a* a grand and ao ble ona, hoping a movement would be in eugursted which would command tbesup port of the majority of the American peo ple in tbe interest of reform and true Re publicanism. Various committee* were tbep appointed for facilitating business, and after a stirring speech by lion. C. P Johnson, of St. Louis,tha Convention took a recess till two o'clock, The Convntion is not only large In point of numbers but contains a majority of the leaders of tbe liberal Republican party of Missouri. Apparently It is com posed of about tbe same man who figured in the bolting Republican Contention that nominated Brown for Uovenor. Home prisa is noticeable at the charac'-* of tbe American element in tb* Convention, it being much greater than was expected, while as lookers on, there several promi nent ganllcmen from Stales—Senator Fow ler, of Tennesson, Judge Oliver, of Ohio, Mr. Scoviil, of New .'eriuy, and many others— whe secoj to We measuring the ex tent of the Lieut opposition ia tbe Repub lican ranks bfra. Nearly every county in the State it represented, and tba Conven tion has been well worked up considering that it it merely for consultation and tbe comparison of views. A large number of people have arrived by tbe midday trains, and the hotels and public resorts seem quite as well filled as the Slate bouse. On reaseiubling this p. m. tbe Commit tee on Resolutions reported through their chairman, Col. Grosvonor. Tba reading of tbe platform called forth repeated and very rutbusiaatic applau-e and e general storm of cheers followed the iut Tbe resolutions, which WafO adopted without any di-rept pre as follows: Tim iOanluliwue Ketohcd. That we. the Liberal Kepub , I lean* of Missouri, faithful now ee we were > in the dark days of civil war to ihr vital piiiicipte* of true Republicanism, by no act or word will endanger rightful seve reigniy of the Union, emancipation, equali ty of civil rights or enfranchisement; to those established facts now embodied in tbe Constitution we claim tb* [vyalty ol all good citixens. Resolved, Thus true end laeting peace pan soiiis only from such profounu recon ciliation as enfranchisement has wrought in tbisKtale. nor can tho Government he just or great in which tax-pavers bare no actual part; we therefore ueioaud with i qua I suffrage for all * <ji|gl amnesty for all, that the intellect and experience of every Met* may be welcomed to active ssrvice for tueir count.uu welfare. Resolved, That no form of taxation is just or wi which puts needles* burdens upon the |Mojile; we demand a genuine reform of tariff so duties shall be removed which, in addition to revenue yielded to the treasury, involve an increase In the price ol domestic products; and a conse quent tax for tba benefit of a favored in terest. Resolved, That the shameless abuse of | Government iwtronage for the control of cPßvtnttons and elections, whether >ll the interest of an individual, a faction or a par ty with the consequent corruption and de moralisation of political lile demands a thorough and genuine reform of the public service. Those wbo would supprces invee ligation forget that they owe a higher du ly to the country than to .ny party.

Ur the aid of iheae two at torney* ujson the bench, tbe vote iu the Court a* nw constituted atanda five Us four for the reversal of the . former decision. "Thr decision of rourta,' aaid Lord Chatbetu on b uteissnrbbib occaaton, "ia ut law ,it ia only aa avidence of tha law " in the preeent caae wa must regard it a* pretty poor evidence 100. It ia simply testimony of lawyers, who were committed to their judg ment under the stimulus of so endeav or le find an iulvrpreutien which •huuld faVor the internals of power ' fui clients. Tbe decision is su attor ney '§ opinion rather than a conclus . ion of au impartial bench uf judges. The argument, too, aa preeculvd by Mr. Jutic Strong, is rather that of no attorney than that of a judge. What ahaii we *ay, fur example, to throe word# lakcu from it f "If now the derteiun uf the court "ratablubce that these obligation# !"cau be discharged only by gold "cuiu, and (that, contrary to cxpeo "latiewe of all |*rtiea to cwnlracu, ("legal Under note* erv rendered uu '"available, the Ctovernmeut has be* "come an instrument uf the grme* I "eel injustice."

And again, tbe following sentence from the asms opinion ia abhorrent to every eenlimtol of mercantile honor, •ma we iruel it is ageiust all sound lew. "The obligation ef a contract to !"pay money ta to pay that which tbe "lew *ball lecwgnise aa money when "tha pgxment ia to be made." We will alter just one word to this xntence, and then it will (peak the language of common seuae and true moraUq: "The obligation of a con -1 tract to pay money ts tu pey that which the law recognised a* money when the lOontiact waa uadr." It anything else than this is law, it ia very had law, and unwotthy any 'couil of reitl juatioe. a Mat of lb* greatest affronts and ogtrsga* .j ever perratrated against the people of' tb* United Hut** was eonaumated yaater-1 f day. in lb* legal-tender doelaioa of a pack- j I *d majuritiy of our highest judicial |ribu>| . nal.
