BOUTWELL
The political record of Secretary. now
Senator, Boutwell stands ant in strong
contrast, with some of those prominent
officials whose names have been connected
with Mobiiier and other operations of
doubtful propriety. Mr. Boutwell has
steadily advanced upward in the public
confidence during his four years of Secre
taryship of the United States Treasury.—
At no time has either his integrity or his
industry been questioned. An effort was
made to implicate him in the Mobilier
stock speculations, and the story was put
in circulation that he was offered stock
and would have purchased but had no
funds to do so. A friend called and asked
him if such was the fact. "No, sir," was
his reply, "no man ever asked me to buy
Mobilier stock ; and if they had done so
you knew, sir, that I could not have made
the plea of inability, while I bad $lO,OOO
in bank to my credit and at my command.
There is no truth in the story; it does not
worry me; let it go." The Secretary,
with his family, has always lived in a plain,
-unassuming boarding-house on Twelfth
street, at a very moderate expense, and is
seldom seen in a carriage, preferring to go
on foot, in all weather, between his home
and his office.
Mr. Bontwell has taken his sent in the
Senate, an honor to that body and to the
State he represents.
Assistant Secretary Richardson has been
appointed Secretary, and Frederick Saw
yer, of South Carolina, has received the
appointment of Assistant Secretary. Mr.
Sawyer was originally from Massachusetts,
but removed South many years ago.

SSNATOX JOHN SCOM—TIIII COMENG Man.—
Wasnowron, March 17.—You may well be
proud of your Senator,John Scott. He grows
stronger and brighter and better. No Senator
stands higher for good sense, and you could
sot have a better reaommendation. Good
sense characterises ail his efforts—it makes
him generally strong. Whether writing, or
speaking, whether in public or private, in re
pose or in action, John Scott is noted for good
sense. His heart is pure, his mind well fur
nished, his principles founded as a

not a candidate, is stronger than any of them.
In an admirable recent speech, ha paid a
high compliment to the Republican party.
The Serf trial had made it stronger and no.
bier. That some bad men had been discover
ed, proved nothing against a party that bad
accomplished the grandest results. This party
bad yet great work to do, in extending the
area of Freedom—in perfecting a system of

John Scott is modest—he is quiet—he
shrinks from observation--.he possesses the
refinement and delicacy of a woman,—but he

ONE GOVERNMENT FOR THE
WORLD.
EDITOR
Great minds have long entertained the
thought that ultimately all the nations of
the earth will come under the control of
cue central government. The President,
in his last, inaugural Address, said : "It
is my conviction that the civilized world
is tending toward republicanism, or gov
ernment by the people through their cho
sen representatives, that our own great
Republic is destined to be the guidingstar
to all others ;" and again : "I believe that
oar great Maker is preparing the world in
His own good time, to become one nation,
speaking one language, and when armies
and navies will be no longer required."
As might be expected, these sentiments
of the President have been noted and re
jected by the crowned heads in Europe.—
Yet they cannot arrest the progress of sen
timent toward republicanism among their
own subjects. The Republic, for March,
a new monthly magazine published at
Washington, contains an article on "Eu
ropean Republicanism," in which it is
clearly shown that republican sentiment is
increasing rapidly in Europe, and especi
ally among the better educated portion of
the middle classes. As popular education
increases it is and always will be followed
by a preference for a republican form of
government. The power of thought and
of public opinion is irresistible, and the
crowned heads knew and feel that monar
chy must ere long transfer the sceptre to
the hands of representatives of the people
chosen by themselves without regard to
hereditary descent. France and Spain have
already removed the yoke of tyranny, anti
though they may not now succeed in estab
lishing republicanism upon a permanent
basis; yet success in the end is certain.—
One nation after another will follow in
their footsteps until republican govern
ment becomes the rule rather than the
exception.
The next movement will be the union
of the smaller powers, the "fusion of na
tions." Many of the Independent Powers
of Europe are not larger, while some of
them are smaller, than single States in the
American Union ; and twenty-seven of
those Independencies might be thrown to
gether and yet have less territory than the
thirty-seven States in the American Uni
on. United, the expenses of government,
under republican organization, would not
amount to over a tithe of the present cost;
and the burdens of the people would be
lightened in the same proportion. Other
advantages, of great value to the people,
would follow, the effects of which, upon
the" public mind, would be to farther ex
tend the union of nations under one cen
tral control, with local governments
through which each department would
manage its own affairs in harmony with
the central organization. •'Such a con
federacy," said one of our leading states
men, a few years ago. "embracing ulti
mately the whole earth, with one untaxed
and unrestricted commerce, one languago
and one christianity,—all enlightened, ed.
nested and trained in moral, scientific, po
litical, and religious culture,—each State,
as under our Union, taking charge of all
its own local concerns, and the general
government exercising bat few powers,
under specific provisions, Would present
incalculable advantages for the advance
ment of the human race."
There would then be no farther use for
armies and navies, for there could be no
foreign enemies. Implements of war would
disappear, and in the prophetic words of
Scripture, might " beaten into plough
shares and pruning hooks." There would
be no tariffs, but trade would be as free as
between our States, and the necessities for
great revenues from tariffs would not ex
ist. Says our authority just quoted : "Re
pulsion, discord, antagonism, separation of
men and nations, mark the past history of
our race, and constitute a record of wars,
and crimes, and misery; whereas the union
of all into one eonfederacy, can alone ter
minate all rival interests and contests, and
produce that universal peace, concord and
happiness of our whole race foretold in
history "
There is nothing impracticable in this
union and brotherhood of the human fam
' ily. But whatever the future of the race
may be it is elearly manifest that civiliza
tion will be largely controlled by the great
Republic which has grown up, under Pro
vidence, upon the American Continent.—
If the great principles of government en
trusted to us by the Fathirs of the coun
try continue to be sacredly observed and
patriotically followed out, the world's pro
gress, in the future, will be rapid, and in
the right direction ; but if we forget our
trust, and our lawgivers become themselves
examples of corruption, by legalizing a
descent upon the public treasury, each
thrusting his arms in and drawing out of
the peoples' money five thousand dollars
for his own use, we can only conclude that
our mission, as a nation, is gone, and we
toe will, as a people, go down, as thousands
of nations have gone before, covered with
inamy and disgrace in the eyes of the
world. The alarm comes not from the
amount abstracted, but front the spirit and
principles of mind that legalized the act.
Our hope is in the people. If this
shameless abuse of public confidence is
permitted to go unnoticed, then it will be
repeated; but if every man who voted for
this outrage upon the public is henceforth
marked and remembered for his atrocious
act, public opition will compel them to
retire disgraced to private life, and their
successors will be deterred from commit- I
ting a similar outrage.

OUR SENATORS,
Philadelphia may consider herself spe
cially favored in that having no represen
tative in the United State, Senate coining
from her immediate municipal limits. her
interests have nevertheles, been so well
attended to by the Senators of the State.
And now at the close of a session, which
has been for us a well-fought battle and
often a doubtful one, their services deserve
at least the recognition of public and hon
orable mention. Courtesy demands this,
but something deeper, a sense of gratitude
and grateful appreciation on the part dour
whole people prompts its expression. To
be sure the care of the whole State is the
duty of the Senator; but in these days
when the controlling influences of public
life tend to sectionalize the legislator and
concentrate his whole powers on the work
of touching the secret springs of the ballot
box, it is something to see men rise above
the mere care of the machinery of election
and davote their time and energies and
intellect to the solid interests of their con
stituency.
Senator Cameron's great abilities have
been long and thoroughly identified with
all the larger business enterprises of the
State. To him the city has always looked
with a confidence and reliance, which have
not been disappointed ; but when Senator
John Scott, of Huntingdon, a man whose
training and associations and whole life
have been almost solely confined to the in
terior of the State, takes on himself to
make a study of our special interests and
wants, in order that he may the better de
fend the one and aid us in the other, we
must accept it not only as a marked com
pliment, but see in it a conscientious obli
gation to duty, and a fidelity to the o-th
of his high office, of which all Pennsylva
nians may feel proud.
Philadelphia is a great business city, and
when she has appeared before Congress
last winter it has been iu a business-like
way for business ends. The advocacy of
her interests has afforded little field for
political or popular display. When Sena
tor Scott had the Post-office bill recommit
ted to reverse Mr. Morrill's adverse re
port; when Senator Cameron secured the
pledge of vote after vote for the public
buildings and League Island appropria
tions, it was hard fighting in the commit
tee room or earnest labor on the floor, in
season and out of season—simply hard
work, with all the conventional accessories
of forensic glory, the electric oratory, the
ringing plaudits, the admiring galleries,
the cloud of reporters—busy manufactu
rers of fame—wanting—the cross without
the crown of the legislative arena.
The work which has been done for us
this winter has been arduous and import
ant; and Philadelphia owes it to herself to
show that she appreciateS and acknowled
ges it, and when the papers of the city
give expression to such acknowledgment
they but discharge a public duty which
will be at. the same time, we are sure, a
personal pleasure.—Phila! Mirth Ameri
can, March 20th.
OUR TAX SYSTEM
The system for the assessment of taxes,
upon industrial companies, in Pennsylya
nia, has long been felt to be very oppres
sive • and unequal, and there is scarcely a
doubt that millions of dollars have been
driven from our midst by an unwise dis
crimiLtion. The North American con
tains the following just remarks upon the
subject :
. "Latterly, it is the mining and manufactu
ring companies which (since the banks are to
some extent shielded by national laws) have
been most harried by the State. Those sturdy
producers of prosperity and comfort, develop
ers of resources, payers of genelous wages,
builders of towns and cities, cannot ply their
energies in Pennsylvania without having the
pestering lists of inquisitorial questionsthrust
at them, to be answered and sworn to, follow
ed by the presentation of tax bills for a large
fraction of their total earnings. The übiquity
and intrusiveness of the State tax-gatherers
equal those of the mosquito which Bryant says
droned to him:
"now little my large seine should bleed
If I would yield them to his bitter need.'
But the subject is too serious to jest upon, and
we fancy that if our industrial companies were
to make the simile, they would speak of the
vampyre rather than of the mosquito.
popular fallacy in regard to these taxes
is that they strike the rich and spare the poor;
but Governer Geary, is his last message, ef
fectually destroys that specious plea. A rich
man, as he shows, may build and own one or
more furnaces, mines, oil wells or factories,
and may carry on his business, paying no oth
er taxes than such as are levied upon the ac
tual property, be it furnaces, factories, coal
mines or oil wells; but let a dozen or a hun
dred of that man's poorer neighbors bring to
gether their capital to carry on an exactly
similar enterprise, and lo I there steps in the
State with a tax for granting the charter un
der which they associate, a tax upon their net
earnings, another upon their dividends, and if
no earnings or dividends are made, then a tax
upon the value of their stock—all these to be
verified by vexatious oaths which are liable
to be impugned by visiting officials—and all,
be it remembered, in addition to the full rate
of ordinary taxation upon the joint property,
which latter is all that the rich man pays.
"In our judgment the whole thing is a mon
strous blunder. If industrial corporations are
public injuries and nuisances tax them, grind
them down, drive there beyond our borders, or
out of existenee. If they are the bone and
sinew of our material wealth, the buttresses
of our prosperity, the achievers of our civili
zation, aid them in their organizing and com
munity building work. If you cannot or will
not do this, at. least let them alone. Our con
viction is xed that sound policy requires the
abolition of all taxes' which discriminate
against industrial aompanies as compared with
individuals, and that our State cannot afford
to defer this act of justice and expediency.
"We intended, when commencing this arti
cle, to point oat sonic of the most flagrant
features of our laws, and particularly to give
the history of the famous three per cent. tax
upon the net earnings of mining and manufac
turing companies, but oar space to-day will
not permit it."
THE CASE OF SENATOR CALD
WELL AND THE SPEECH OF
HON. JOHN SCOTT.
The Leaguers are constantly making
lattacks on the personal and public charac
ter of Senator Scott, hoping to weaken
the confidence of his friends and neigh
bors in him :Is a man and a Republican
representative. lie is now acting in a
sphere where his words and opinions are
weighed by a wider circle than the readers
of these diatribes; and that the people of
his native county env see the estimate in
whickhe is,held'hy those who are net iull.l

it prop...? to put in cantra.t with the scur
rility embraced Its thew; attacks the fol-.
lowing Washington despatches to the New
York Times anti Tribune of Saturday, file I
15th instant :
"Senator Scott was the first speaker to-day,
and he made the most compact and powerful
argument and able speech that has bees made
in this debate, or perhaps in the Sonata this
Winter. He took the ground that the English
precedents should not guide the Senate of the
United States in this matter, and argued
against the passage of the committee's resolu
tion. He Emilie with feeling of the circum
stances which inclined him toward Mr. Cald
well, and characterized with great force and
justice the ',entice! lazzaroni that have pur
sued him this Winter. But, in spite of all
these things, Mr. Scott could not shut his eyes
to the evidence. and he regarded the charge
of bribery sustained, and the duty resting on
him to vote for eNpulsion. The speech, brief,
earnest, logical, and modestly adorned with
flowers of rhetoric, made is deep impressioa.—
J.
Two great speeches were made in the Senate
to day. Mr. Scott, who has duringthe session
that recently closed, done much to vindicate
his claim to high rank us a Senator, made the
strongest speech that has yet been delivered
against the legality of Mr. Morton's resolution.
His argument was clear and compact, and ably
delivered, and if it tailed to convince, it must
have been because his premises were not ad
mitted. Having disposed of the legal part of
the question, he turned to the case itself, and
closed his speech with v. few passages that
will rank very high as examples of pathetic
eloquence. He referred in feeling terms to
the memories that clustered in his mind
around the name of Caldwell, the Senator
having been born in his (Scott's) county, and
his father having served the country nobly in
the Mexican war. All his sympathies had
gone out for Mr. Caldwell, especially when he
saw him attacked by men of such bad charac
ter as the testimony showed his accusers to
be: bat when be saw that all agreed about
the paymeat of 815.000 to Gov. Carney, and
that the only question about $7,000 more was
whether Carney or members of the Legislature
got it, he was bound to believe that Mr.
Caldwell, when he went up to Topeka, fell
among thieves, and, he added with much feel
ing. he wished he could say that he had turn
ed his back upon them. Mr. Scott will doubt
less vote for a resolution of expulsion.—

WASHINGTON, D. C., March 20,1873.
THE SENATE EXECUTIVE SESSION,
The time of the Senate is divided be
tween the confirmation of nominations
made by the President, and debates on the.
Caldwell Investigation case.
When the Cal - dwell case was taken up
to-day, Mr. Hamilton(Md.)read an argu
ment denying the power of the Senate to
inquire into the qualifications of members
of a state legislature, and declared that he
could not vote for the resolution reported
by the committee. The power claimed by
this resolution was a doubtful power at
best, and he asked why not resort in this
case to the exercise of an undoubted pow
er—that of expulsion? In every aspect of
this case he preferred that the undoubted
power resting in the Senate should be ex
ercised, and he should votg accordingly.
He could not for a moment entertain the
idea that the Senate was to set itself up as
the censor of the members of the legisla
ture. The Senate had no power or right
to put the members of a legislature on
trial. The testimony showed a horrible
condition of affairs in Kansas, a degenera
cy in morals and politics, in which the
Senator from Kansas was involved; it
showed a unity of guilt unparalleled any
where. He could not compromise with
fraud, and while he sympathized with the
person on whom he was called to pass
judgment, he could not avoid condemns
den of his act in the most solemn form.
Mr Castling then resumed his argu
ment commenced yesterday in denial of the
authority of the Senate to pass the pending
resolution. As to the alleged proofs of
bribery, he held that bribery to be proved
must be established by proper legal evi
dence. One member of this committee,
(Mr. Carpenter,) who has studied the laws
of evidence for twenty years, has asserted
that no intelligent and upright jury or
eourt would find one solitary instance of
bribery of any member of the Kansas leg
islature. Another member of the com
mittee (Mr. Logan) has spoken to the
same effect. A third member, (Mr. Antho
ny.) dissented from the report, which re
ceived the sanction only of fourteen mem- -
bera.
Among the nominations sent to the
Senate to-day was that of Washington Booth
to be collector of Customs, Baltimore, Md.;
Adam E. King, naval officer, Baltimore,
together with a number of Postmasters.

revenue.
SENATORS BOGY AND CASSERLY,
The Senate Committee on• Elections
have the charge of bribery made against
Senator Bogy, Mo., under consideration,
but have not yet decided whether to make
a rept rt to the Senate or not, If the sen
ate should decide not to expel Caldwell
Bogy's case will be dropped; but if the
former should be expelled Bogy will have
an investigation, which he has himself
demaded.
Senator Caseerly, Cal., says he will not
take au notice of the rumors afloat of
bribery in his election.

Providing for the Soldiers' Orphans
We have received frui Coi. Robert B.
Beath, Department Commander of the
Grand Army, a report of the Committee
oti Soldiers' Orphans, which contains the
following, which we fully endorse:
The State has expended each year about
half a million dollarsfbr Soldiers' Orphans,
doing more in this way than all other
States combined; and anything that could
add materially to the present cost, must be
shown not only to be a necegsity, but to be
of great practical benefit to the children.
Prof. - VitcxEssuAm's Report dispels
any idea of its necessity as a general prin
ciple.
He presents a list of the "Siateeners"
(Children discharged at that age), giving
their occupation, and state "that more than
98 per cent. of the whole number are doing
well, and seem likely to be upright and
useful citizens." This list does not account
for more than half of the children dis
charged, but your Committee fully believe
that the record of the others would prove
as gratifying. This is due in great meas
ure to the earnest eare of Superintendent,
Principals and Teacher, who have left no
means untried procure proper situations
for children.
Gratifying as is the exhibit shown of
the "Sixteeners," the Committee feel that
if proper authority and means had been
given Superintendent WICKERSHAM, great
good would have been conferred on many
of the children, with corresponding benefit
to the State , and the Superintendent has
practically solved the question of what can
now be done.
At his request last year, the State ap
propriated $2,000 "to send some of the
brightest and best graduates of the Or
phans' Schools te the State Normal Schools.
where they could be fitted for a career of
the highest usefulness as teachers." With
this sum thirteen scholars were sent to
these Schools, and so great has been the
success of this experiment, that the Super
intendent has asked for $5,000 this year
with which to send twenty-five graduates,
who will be fitted for teachers, and for
whom schools can be readily had when
their studies are completed.
We propose that this idea be so extend
ed that scholars, who desire it and are
qualified therefor. may be sent to the
"School of Design for Women." The
Agricultural College, or Normal Schools,
and further, that boys and girls inclined
to learn any of the mechi.uie or high arts
that could not be learned at their homes,
or in small villages and interior towns,
shall be provided, through the aid of the
members of the Grand ArMy, with places
in machine shops, or elsewhere, and also
with homes where they would be under
proper moral influences, and that the state
should make up the deficiency between
the amaunt earned by them and that re
quired for their support during the first
year or two. Many girls who now have
to struggle along as seamstresses, could
earn a livlihood as photographers, book
keepers, &c. Many boys with a natural
talent for engineering or machinery, could
learn these professions, obtain good salar
ies and occupy a higher place in the com
munity than under existing circumstances.
They only need the opportunity, and this
they should have. THIRTY THOUSAND
DOLLARS would be amply sufficient to car
ry this plan into effect, and this sum, ex
pended by Supt WICKERSHAM under the
supervision ofGoVernor Hartranft, would
be the means of establishing for life many
of the children of those who gave their
lives for our country.
This appropriation will be asked for,

Centaur Liniment.
There is no pain which the Centaur Liniment will not
relieve, no swelling it will not subdue, and no lameness
which it will not cure. This is strong language, but it Is
trim. Where the parts are not gone, its effects are mar
velous. It has produced more cores of rheumatism, neu
ralgia, lock Jaw, palsy, sprains, swellings, caked breasts,
eealds, barns, salt-rheum, ear-ache, upon the human
frame, and of strains, spavin, gall, &c, upon animals in
one year than have all other pretended remedies since the
world began. It is a counter-irritant, an alt-healing pain
reliever. Cripples throw away their crutches, the lame
walk, poisonous bites are rendered harmleas, and the
wounded are healed without a near. It is no humbug. The
The recipe is published around each bottle. It is ceiling
as no article ever before eold, toad it soils because it does
Just what it pretends to do. Those who now troffer from
rheumati.m, pain or swelling, deserve to stiffer if they
will not use Centaur Liniment. More than 1000 certifi
cates of remarkable cures, Including frozen limbs, chron
ic rheumatism, gout, running tumors, &c., have been re-
calved. We will send a circular cootaing certMcatee, the
receipt, &c., gratin, to any one requesting It. One bottle
of the yellow wrapper Centaur Liniment is worth one
hundred dollars for spavined or nweenied horses and
mules, or for screw-worm from sheep. Stock owners—thin
liniment in worth your attention. No family ehoold be
without Centaur Liniment. Price 60 cents a bottle, large

1873 THE- WORLD 1873
A uew political era in opening before the country .
The negro-cycle of onr politics Ilan rounded to its con
clusion through civil wur, Racial violence, industrial di.
order, and has ended In giving freedom to four millions
of the negro race, and the ballot to its adult males.
...The old order chaugeth, yielding place to new."
The poli. Ms of thin new era will come home to ever,
mane business and bosom an never before, being vital to
private prosperity and the maintenance of a Democratic
Republic.
for not only are the manifold encroachments of red
eral spun the State power,' and of both upon the large
liberty of American freemen now as always to be repelled
with ceaseleas vigilence ; not only is home rule or !oral
self-government now as always to he maintained for the
best guarantee of civil liberty and of national greatness,
bet besides, the victories of peace which arc to give splen
dor to the new political era mast he won &getout every
advantage which even enemies of fret/ institutions could
desire or poises..
A gigantic Debt, which the honor of the country is
pledged to pay, encumbers all our industries with its
oppressive burden. Nevertheless our Byete me of Municip
al and khaki Taxation are crude, unequal, and defraud
the poor to release the rich. Neverthless our system of
Federal Taxation is midi an infiunons masterpiece of ig
nor.inco and incapacity, put to the rile uses of monopo
lists and favorites and thieves, an never anywhere has dis
graced modern civilization since Loots XIV., with his
methods of taxation rather than ite amount, paralyzed
the industries of France. And along with the Tariff,
which prohibits the export of our manufacturee, abridges
the camber of our industries, cuts down the profit upon
the exports from all our farmv, plantations, and mines •
abolishes our shipping from off the high seas, and filches
5.5 from the peoples pockets every tan, it puts $1 into
the 11. S. Treasury,—along with this engine of oppression,
stupidity, and fraud gem] a Currency of fiuctuatiog video
es the measure of values in every act of domestic ex
change. . .
Whatever parties may arise or fall, whatever their de
feel 9or triumphs, and whatever their names, The World
now and always will remain the unflinching champlina of
a Liberal progreszere Democracy, whereof' Freedom de
fended and defined by Justice is the peter -star.
