tin the third-term question on Mon
day Mr. SjKX-r, a lVtii.**r*t. moved a
resolution deeUring that in Hie judg
ment of the house the election of a Pres
ident for a third term i* against the tra
dition- of the rejHiblio ; is in violation >-l
the example of Wa-hingt.ai, nw a. rM
in itself, and would Ik- haxardous alike
for the liberties of the jK-ople and the
five institutions of the country. It was
v.tied down by tin- Radicals.
The two houses of cougress, -ays the
Patriot, have each (unwed a civil rights
bill. The senate bill lies on the table of
the In-use, and the house bill on the ta
ble of tin- senate. The latter hill is the
xiUic which has been published and
commented upou frequeutlv in the col
umns of the Patriot, with the clause
making mixed schools compulsory
stricken out. It provides for the en
forcement by i-aiiis and penalties of the
full and equal enjoy meat on the part of
negroes of the accommodations, advan
tages. facilities and privileges of hotels,
railroads, steam boats, stage coacho. and
other public conveyances of travel, and
also of theatres and other places of pub
lic amusement, etc., etc., subject only to
such limitations and conditions as are
now established by law. Exclusive cog
nizance of the violation of the law is
given to federal courts.
Tho senate bill is different from the
house bill in its subject matter, though
not greatly divergent in its general
scope. Both bilL* may yet fail, from the
refusal of either house to (ia.- the bill of
the other or to arrange in conference the
points of difference. In the house Un
civil rights bill had to bo acted upon. It
blocked the way toother legislation, and
was disprsed of in its order. The re
publican leaders may think it advisable
to leave the civil rights legislation in
this straddled shape, trusting to what
they have done in each house separate
ly to hold the negro vote, and (Hitting
upon the next congress the responsibili
ty of its permanent defeat. A few days
will determine their jsjlicy .
7.4A .f TIOX.
"It becomes neeeawy to rai.-- an in
crauted public nrenue by additional
taxation. The national expenditure is
very much greater, it appears, than the
uatiiuiHl income. In the case of a pri
vate individual, niton as thus 'outrun
nine the comable.' the obvious remedi
al action would be to bring the outlay
down within the limits of the income,
ami a general reduction of the whole es
tablishment mould be the obvious l>e
ginning." Thus starts out an editorial
in Fomey'a Press, a warm Grant organ.
It is a -egnificant admission, and one
that has poor comfort for the tax-ridden
citizen in these hard times. The Grant
a {ministration is living far beyond its
large income, and uecvMurics arc to be
taxed to raise something like an addi
tional $40,000,000. Why not cut down the
salaries —Grant's not excepted—and
lessen the number who are feeding and
fattening at the public crib? Sugar is
to have an additional tax ; tea, tobacco,
ami whiskey, aud other articles the
same, because they will not practice
economy at Washington. While the
farmers are getting only starvation pri
•v fur their grain, this congress finds it
necessary to pot an additional tax on
every "chaw" of tobacco he takes, on
every c*ip of tea he drinks, and on every
spoonful of sugar with which he sweet
ens it, but not a single effort to cut down
the congressmen's big |wy or lop off the
president's doubled salary or lessen the
horde of office holders.
REPORT IN PINCH BACK'S
FA YOR.
Washington, February B.—The Senate
Committee on Flections reported late
thia afternoon in tavor of admitting
Pinchback as Senator from Louisiana
on a prima facie case. The re}ort is
kagned by only four of the nine members
of the committee, and Mr. Hamilton, of
Maryland, very properly made the point
of order that it was not the majority re
port of the committee. Mr. Morton said
it was the majority of a quorum of seven
members, and the presiding officer, Mr.
Anthony, ruled it in order. The hut,
however, is palpable to all that five of
the nine members of the committee are
oppoeed to Pinchhack's admission. Mr.
Morton lias simply taken advantage of
Mr. Carpenter's absence to Curt* this
partisan course on the Senate. The re
port recognizes the validity of the Kel
logg usurpation, and is the first of a se
ries of Radical measures which are to be
forced through the Senate-.

nrc RESULT.
The result nflrtst Tuetnlav's ch\ tioii in
this county, for a meinbct ofthc llou*c,
offers food for reduction tVniiavallcv
—the wction that easts the democratic
majority, ami without whose vote no
democrat evei was or can bo elected in
this county has shown sign* of falter
ing. The vote for our nominee, Mr.
Alexander, is so far from what it should
lie. that it is time to halt ami look for
the cause ol it among IVnnsvalloy dein
<v rats w ho uevor Ivforx*. not even in the
day > ol know -not hint: ism, a ere know n to
falter, although there were occasions
when our |nople felt us thoughtlie> had
not been fairly dealt with in the making
of nominations ami on account of im
positions practiced by |s>)iticians on the
Hellclonte side Always true, save last
Tuesday, to the nomination, the
causes and charges against our nominee,
ujkui whith democrat* justify their ac
tion, it is useless for us to refer to now,
rather prefcring to leave this unpleasant
matter to the voters themselves, much
deploring the loss of a democratic mem
U-ras we fear.
Mr. Alexander sustains an enviable
character far uprightness, and his noun
nation was fairly made and thus he was
entitled to the vote of every derma rat
but unfortunately for him, his nomina
tion was attributed to the work of a few
men whoso supjsnt every democratic;
candidate in the future will find it a bur
den w hen it cornea to the (.oil-. Win
K Alexander, of course, was not to
blame for tbis, ami the fin- of others
friends fell upou his shoulders to she w
the disfavor in which the latter stand!
with the mass of the democracy, ..ml |
this, with exaggerated rv(ort> used
a ruinst him, produced the much to U- re
gretted result.
We are sorry for Mr. Alexander's de
teat. We loose a utemlier whose vote
may la- needed, and a radical will Ik
counted against us instead. It is time
for iteims rats who have the good of the
(•arty at heart, to turn their attention to
the danger ahead ami to the real causes
that .ire producing a discontent among
the rank ami tile which will prove fatal
to our organisation in this county, if the
ulcer be i.ot removed, ami with which
irritating canst- there seems little pro
spect for that harmonv so essential to
suet ess.
THE LAST ABYSS A COR
RUPTION FUND "L ELEV
EX MILLIONS.
We present in another jwgc, say- the
Sun, some documents and extract* from
dcH-uments which shed a broad glare of
light on tin- mysteries of Congressional
legislation atnl the methods of the rail
way lobbies. They show that the long
series of frightful exposures w hjch tain
the current history of American jiolitio
—Credit Mobilier, San Ikmiiiigo, the
Washington King, Pacific Mail—have
only touched the surface of the hideous
mass of corruptions which fester in and
arvmnd Congress, pervading the whole
atmosphere of the capital and ]>olluting
the country. They show that the ruling
(dirty is steeped and sodden in venality,
rotten all through, and perishing of in
ternal putrefaction.
The San lluiniiigo investigation ex
hibited the President as the avowed
chieftain of a huge King, whose rajiacitv
would Ik- satisfied with nothing less
than the spoil* of a tropical island. The
Credit Mobilier revealed the chief offi
cers of the two Houses, the chairmen of
the principal committees, and tjie trust
ed (larty leaders in and out of Congress,
Iwo-ely prostituting themselves for a few
huudrcds- The Washington King in
eluded tho t'hiof Magistrate of the na
tion. together with the c i.airrnan of the
Committee on Appropriation*, ami a
few humbler iuciulkTs, in conspiracy

Treasury of the United Mates, 7'he Pa

with greedy agents and rustling with I
greenbacks, counted out in immense j
piles ; and iuir ixmies this long-hidden.!
nameless, monstrous criing v'f another!
continental railway to shock and stiauu- (
us again.
If the documents we la-gin to print
this morning do not startle the country
like an explosion in tiw njgbt. we may
safely conclude that the moral -cu-c- is
dead in the public breast, and the exper
iment of republican institution* near its
final catastrophe. We offer here no
synopsis of ii.'.-(■ extraordinary juqs-rs,
and record none of the which
they provoke. We prefer that every
citizen should read for himselfuiid draw
his own conclusion*. We are sure that
no hoiu-st man w ill rise- from the (s rir
sal of this hatfu>£uj page, torn from the
secret history ofUoiigress and thp Jpbbv,
without an impulse to seize the scourge
and drive the thieves from power.
Tin' official records of this company
and the corroapomjgnce of the parties
concerned prove tliat about cuknj mil
lions of its securities were gravely and
coolly set aside to form an enormous
corruption fund whereby to purchase
legislation, and were used as such. As
an indication of the u*o,-.i)s pud method*
prevailing at Washington, it is the most
stupendous fact thus far developed.
Ist the people understand and pon
der the facts x* they are set forth.
• ♦
The rtfiult of^Tuesday'* ete4u>o
that the respectable jsirtion of the dem
ocracy on the other side of the county,
sympathized with their b ret hern on
this side. We always believed that the
conduct of certain desjK-rnl pu)j|jcians
and their doings did not have the ap
probation of the honest democrat* on
, that ohic of the county, some of whom
are of the purwst n/pl beat nun in the!
party. Now let the voice of (J;j- Jjonest,
sober, thinking rank and file la- re*(K>ct
cd—they intend to Is- triffled with no
longer.
I-'it Tuesday's result is a rebuke of
those iu the recent convention who led
off for the "wihuiug paf-ty" and called
out the disgraceful closing scen/s to the
disgust of the I'ennsvalley delegates,
whose decency led them to withdraw
from it—and Tuesday's vote sustains the
delegates who retired.
