i'onicrr!tlonnl llnncality.
Our readers nro no doubt awnro
tlint bini-o (ha advent of Kudionllnin
to power, nil manner of crlmo is
practiced in high places by tlio ofliccrs
and agent! of tlio Gnrcrnmont, tlio
."government" itself not being proof
against presents bribes.
One. of tlio evils which seems to
liavo afflicted Congrospinon for the
past ten yenrH, is tlio snlo of Catlet
' bill ps. Many of tlio members enga
ging in it os a matter of merchandise.
It i eh men Helling tlicir sons to Con
gressmen for West l'oint and Annnp
olirt, furn prieo, like so many horsos
or oxen. Those paying tlio highest
prico securing tlio placo. Dollars and
cents being substitutes for merit and
honor. An investigation on tlio part
of a Congressional committee shows
that moro than oo-tliird of tlio mcm
bor in lit 0 present and past Congress
had engaged in this infamous traffic,
but the meanest scalawag of tlio whole
tribe has really escaped expulsion.
Wo refer to R. R. Butler, of Tonnssee,
sculawag of the deepest dye. This
Duller was a Confederate Colonel,
ono of the first to go Into the war,
and stuck to it until the surrender,
lie however, soon oflor turned "loil
ist," and was elected to Congress by
the Jiadicnld, but having been a "rebel
Colonel" bo would not take tlio iron
clad oath, and hence could not tuko his
scut. His "loil" brothers soon over
come this difficulty by passing an act
rclioving him of all penalties, and
allowed him to tnko his seat without
taking tlio iron clad oath; yet, while
Kev. Wbittoinoro, Dewees, and other
scalawags and carpet-baggers have
been expelled for selling Cudctships,
this meanest of all scalawags, ictains
bis scat, merely iiuckcting a voto of
censure, and ready to sell another
Cudctship. The voto for expulsion
stood, yeas 102, nays 08 this not
being two-thirds, the question failed.
Tho voto of censuro was however,
unanimous.
Ono of tho jokes which occurred in
tho midst of this carnival of crime,
was, that this very sumo Duller voted
for tho expulsion of poor Whittcmore
and Dewees.
Tennessee Duller, the Cadot seller,
testified that ho could not find a boy
in bis district, qualified to send to
West l'oint, henco bo had appointed
u son of Gen. Tyler's, from another
Stnto, and tho General testifies that
he gave Butler $2,300. Xo wonder
Butler gets to Congress from tho dis
trict he represents. So boy intelli
gent enough to sond to school at tho
Military Acudoiny ! Liko boy like
Congressman. Loyalty must be in a
blissful state in that district.
Grant Economy. President Grant
has actually shored an act through
Congress, giving Stanton ?fl,0UO, one
year's talury as Judge, when it is
notorious that he was dead before his
commission was mudo out, besides, bis
brother war thiorcs have givon his
widow $100,000, being something near
tho profits duo him realized out of
confiscation and general plundering
during the war.
Tho new Postage. Sumps will prob
ably bo ready for use in April. They
nro said to be much better than those
now in use. We cannot see lhat they
could be much worse, and as we have
had soveral charges lately we hopo
the national designer has pitched this
lime upon slamp that will stick.
A llow. The scalawsgs and carpet
bagger are having a fine row over
municipal ofluira at Richmond, Va.
Two Mayors and two sets of Police.
General Can by backs tho one park
nnd Governor Walker tho other. Go
in dorks, and misccgcnalionists, we
don't care which whips.
If and Ir. Congress has now cs
tablished tho fact that it is a crime to
sell Codctxhip, fur tho sum of 1850.
If this is so, what shall bo said of the
President who sells a Cabinet for
$100,000 f Why not settle both cases
while they hnve their hands in ? Say,
"foil millions ?"
A Murderer Endorsed. Gen. Van.
. Sickles, has at last been confirmed
by tho U. 51. Renntc, as Minister to
Spain. It was heavy work, but it
vent through after much labor on the
part of thoe "controlled by grand
moral ideas."
Going, Gone! It is said that the
nolo of Cadotships will bo very bi Nk
this season, liicli fathers had better
nee Congressmen in timo, or the price
may bo run np to a fabulous point
by next fall.

Hear what tho Iter. Kevcls says to
his whl lo associates:
I remarked, Mr, President, tlmt T ens to plead
for nnitectlou for ft defenseless raoe, who now
semi their delegation to the seat of Movernment

core for them. Arid hero let me say further, thnt

deep obligation which it ii no euay matter to fulfil.
When tho Feilornl ftrmy were threatened by denlh
and disaster, ami rolnliro clouds overhung the
lengtn and hrcailth or the Keputilie, and the very
air waa pregnant with rumor of foreign interfer
ence) in thoeo dark day of defeat, whom metno
oriei even yt't haunt ui at an ugly dream, from
what source did our nation in i tit seeming death
throe gain additioonl nnd new-found power? It
waa the eulile inna of the Houth that vnlinntly
rualird to the retoue, and for their intrepidity and
ardent darilift mnny a Northern Breiile wuuld
raise to-duy paternal eounael or a hrolher'l love.
Sir, I repeat the fact that the eolored roee eared
to tho nohlo women of New England and the
Middle Ktatef the men on whom they lean to-day
for eeearity and tafety. Many of my rare, repre
sentative! of thee men on the flehi of battlo, lieep
in tho eoiinllee grave of tho South. If those
quiet resting plaeea of our honored dead oould
apeak to-day, what a mighty voino, like to the
mailing ol a nighty wind, would eouae op from
thoae sepulchral hotnre. Could we resist Uie
eloquent pleadinga of their appeal ? Ah, sir, J
think thia question of immediate and ample pro
tection fur th loyal people of Oeorgia would loae
it legal technicalities, and we would cease to
hesitate in our provision, far their inatant relief.
Again. I regret thia delay on other ground.
Tho taunt ia frequently flung at na that a Nemesis

uprising of th American people will demand that
theae reeonatruclion act ot Congress lie undone
and blotted forever from the annala of legialatire
enactment. I inquire, sir, if thia deluy in afford
ing protection to th loyaliet of the btate of
Georgia doea not lend an uncomfortable signiu.
cane to thia boasting inecr wah which we so
often tweet t Ielay ia periloua at beat, for It ia

the more critienl becomes the malady that we seek

There, whito soldior, what do you
think of the allegation of brother
Revels. "Tho noblo women of New
England" we suppose will lean for
nil futuro lime on the arm of brothor
Bevels and his fighting hosts. "T h
colored troops fought bravely" ac
cording to this sable Senator, but if
they "saved the nation" somebody
has been lying liko Tom Pepper,
and tho whito "boys in bluo" have
been cheating all around tho board.
How fortunato for "Old Abo" and
tho country that we had a few thou
sand niggers on hand during the late
rebellion, and bow very satisfactory
to learn even at this lata day that
Sambo was tho "individual" that
"hung Jeff. Davis on a sour applo
tree," while tho whito Yanks were

It is on old saying, that "when

Lowry, of Eiie, is engaged writitig

so justly deserves. In my firf,t letter
I promised to give the people some of

hat can tlio musses ol tho Ilepub-
lican party think of the picture? I
gain my kuowledgo of tho amounts of
money you drew Irom the Htnte from
tiio reports of tho Auditor-General.
On ono occasion, after you had been
paid an account to which yoa had
sworn, it was discovered yon had
fraudulently drawn more than you
wore entitled lo, nnd were compelled
to rotnrn to tho State tho sum of
which you sought to cheat it, and it
was no easy job to compel yoa to
disgorge My information as to your
other receipts of publio money, I
believe, is correct and reliable. You
muy havo been in secret schemes of
plunder outsido of your low selling,
with which I am iiot acquainted. You
certainly aro engaged us a constant
borer in tho lobbies of the Legislature,
where you pass your time during iho
session of that body, instead of re
maining in Iho llarrisburg I'ostofUco
attending to duties which you thus
neglect, and for which you receive an
annual salary of several thousand dol
lars. The Postmaster-General ought
certainly to know that tho Postotlico
nt llarrisburg is, to all intents and
purposes, conducted without Iho prcs
enco of its legally appointed Post
master; ono whom nine tenths of the
decent and respectable ltepublicans of
tins city repudiate, anil who, it they
had the power, would hurl you from
a position you disgrace In conclu
sion, Ucacou llergner, let me whisper
in your car, and suggest thnt before
you go henco, you sell yonr ill-gotten
lands and newly-constructed blocks,
and have tho proceeds ready to do
posit in tho ample pockets of your
shroud, nnd in a strong iron sale in
your gruvo, wherewith lo tempt St.
Peter, as you hnvo often tcmptod
members of tho Legislature, and be
prepared to cheat tho Devil, us this is
manifestly tho best uso you aro likely
over to nuiko of it.
As I intend to bo ns radical on

him for embezzling tho Church fund,
whereupon Jfev. Hovels sued tho

"Il is manifest from the report of
tho surveyor Uoneral, and no censure
should bo imputed to him, that the
greatest possible confusion exists in
some cases ns lo tho location of land.
In his report of this year (page 4,)
ho says : "perhaps tho most trouble

Commercial people cannot have fall
td to remark the complete revolution
nut only In the method of transport
ing freight from ono ocean to another,
hut in tho time occupied In the trans
port, by tho facilities supplied in the
great railway lines now spanning th
continent. An instanco in point oc
curs in tho conveyance of the cargo
ol tea brought from Yokohama by
tho ship llencfactrcii lo Man r rnncisco,
Tho owners, Messrs. A. A. Low Co.,
tolegraphed her captuin to suil from
Japan, after his ship wtis fully laden,
to Sun rrancisco instendot iow lork
as had been previously arranged.
Arriving at the metropolis of Culi
fornia, the entire cargo consisting of
eleven thousand packages or tea, was
immediately placed aboard tho Call
fornia fust freight line, and despatch
ed lo riew lork, being partiully dis
Iributed at Chicago and othor points
by tho way. A glance at the time oc
cupied in this mailer will ho instruo
tive und give'occasion for somo reflec
tion. 1 he ship s passage from Yoko
hama to Sun Francisco was mado in
20 days ; the timo from San Francisco
to Now York was 15 days j allowing
in uii oniy ii auys lor a lull cargo con
signed iu Japan to bo dclivored in
New York.
From Now York to London is. nv
twelve days, which would make tho
lime necessary for a consignment to
reach r.ngiand irom Japan but fitly.
threo days all told. Such figures
demonstrate more powerfully than
nny trcaliso the marvelous progress
of science, the immense saving of timo
and tho great revolution in tho Chi
nese and Japaneso trodo, effected by
Iho construction of tho Pacific roads.
Tho annexed telegram shows still fur
ther how near Boston is to the Cali
fornia cities, it being stated thnt a
consignment has been received at
Sacramento in fifteen days from that
city. It reads as follows :
(Cony) "SACRAiirniTO, March 9, 1870.
"To G. T. Nuttlo, Agent California
Fast Line, No. 229 Broadway, New
York : Freight is coming through
from New York by your line in seven
teen (17) and eighteen (18) days. One
consignment for Levi Strauss & Co.,
received In fifteen (15) days from
Boston. "A. S. Towno.
"Gen. Sup't. orCentral Pacific R. It."
The above is proof sufficient of tho
capacity and inestimable veluo of
these roads. Seventeen days from
-ew lork and lillcen Irom Boston
bring California almost within hailing
distance, or at least mako it practicul
ly a suburb of the East, instead of a
distant country requiring a passage
around tho Horn or transit across the
Isthmus.
Arrangements havo been made by
wincn ail loreign goods arriving at

California Fast Freight Lino makes
tho regular transit, with only one
transfer, via. tho Chicago and North
western Ruilwuy and Uuion and Cen
tral Paciflo Railroads.
TatAstRT Towils Tho extent to
which tho United States Treasury
seems to need towelljng is something
appalling. Mr. Boulwull has just sent
to tho Houso of Representatives a
statement of tho incidental expense
of his department, wilh a grand totul
of fifty nino thousand dollars. Near
ly every conceivable articlo figures in
somo itoin, from flower pots to fans
and alpacn braid ; but the great item
of constant recurrence is that of wash
ing towels. This hint of cleanliness
not only occurs on every pugo, but in
every second or third line. Il is the
monotonous echo to everything. It
will givo tho iiconlo a satisfvinir idea
of the fillhiness of tho national lucre
to hear that this towel washing for
one year amounts to tlio snug sum of
one thousand eight hundred and forty
fivo dollars, and that tho number ol
towel wushed is upwards of thirty
thousand enough to give the Treasu
ry people one hundred clean towels
every doy.
His Cost. Revels, the nc,iro, is
now Senator, atacost of three thou-
sand million dollars and tho lives of
nearly a million whilo men. Think
of it, yo ' Boys in Bluo ;" count the
