Mr. Dawes moved to amend the res

have the subject simply referred to the
committee on military nlliiirs, leaving
the committed to take such action iu
the matter as it should judgo best.--Tho

Mr. Wood said thut he preferred, In

Tho general government, liko many
backers, feels itself sorely pressed
"theso prosperous limes," although U
has been in tho money-making busi
ness for over ton years. Tho rovon.

ernment tho world ever saw" is run

loyal statesmen. During tho mouth
of October the national debt wus In
creased over three millions, nine mil
lions for November, and we lire told
December will reach lifloon millions.
Internal Itevonuo Commissioner
Douglass, demands more taxation to
keep up tho credit of the government
The soeretnry of the treasury, in
Ins iinnuul report, wlnle urging econ
omy upon congress, said : Should thoro

day and an increase In tho receipts
over thoso of Iho past two and a half
mouths additional means would oo re

be tho case he would recommond nd

so us to unburden thupoople and Dust

Tho Secretary said this morning

amount. Ho has written a letter to
the chairman of ways nnd means, re
commending, and enclosing u bill for
that purpose, tho restoration or the
duty on tea nnd colfco, which will
yield about 2U,0OJ,Ot)O per nnntim.
llo nlao encloses a letter to him from
Commissioner Douglass, milking the
following recommendations:
An increased tax of ten cents por
gallon on distilled spirits, which would
yield 87,000,0110 annually ; four cents
additional per pound on tobacco, which
would yield M.HH,uuu: on illuminat

Tho Commissioner says if moro rov-

Foolishly and wickedly, a "ring"
cngngod in the Tea and Coffee trade,
a year ago, prevailed upon tho admin
istration to repeal the tax on those
luxurious, which was twenty five conts
per pound on tho former and five conU
on the latter, and in this way robbed
tho Treasury of over 820,000,O0O,which
tho ring pocketed, and wo have no
doubt was largely shared in by Con
gressmcn, whilo tbe consumer has not
boon benefited in tho least.
Ostensibly the lobby and its con

This whiffing about by Iho govern

shoddy dcalors want. Put, how hu

Our Second Blessing ,
The freaks of grout men are as in
comprehensible sometimes as those of
smull mon. "Tho late lamented"
Lincoln pronounced our hugodebt "a
national blessing." A little moro lhan
a year ago, Senator Morion, of Indi
ana, the leader of Grant's administra
tion, promised that if tbo people would
ro elect Grant unfounded prosperity
should prevail throughout the nation
Now, Senator Sherman, of Ohio, says
that tho prevailing suspension Is a
blessing In disguise. Well, we never
did liko disguises. It is truly remark
ablo to obscrvo how busy thoso politi
cal quacks, of tho loyul persuasion,
uro, just now, in suggesting various
ways to remodel tho good limes en
tailed upon tho business u (fairs of the
country through their fallacious pol
icy. The Now York Sun thus briefly
refers to tho Iniquitous policy of tbe
Government officials and ihoir pots.
Tho editor in question, says :

without any apparent security what,

also deemed eminently s tfe, as in thu
popular mind it wns looked upon us

VonrUHon ot Mlaxaint.
Tho trial of Marshal Bazaine, which
has beon in progress for some timo, at
Versailles, 1 ranee, for treason In sur
rendering Mctz to tho Germans, was
concluded on Wednesday lust. The
eablo furnishes tho following see no :
M. Lachaud,counsol for Marshal Ba
zuino, in his peroration said : "I deep-

signed an appcul for mercy; which
Duke D'Aumul immediately conveyed

Bazaino wus greatly agitated when
ho heard tho decision of tho court.
I'auis, December 12. Tho decision
of 1'resident MacMulioo in the case ol
Marshal Bazaine is announced this
morning. The sentence of death
against tho marshal is commuted to
twenty years' seclusion. Ho iB to boar
tho effects of degradatiou from his

Tho result of this commutation ol
Biuuino'e punishment will bo his en

vuillanco of tho polico during tho en
tire period of his seclusion. He will
thoruforo be, to all intents and. pur
poses, a prisonor, although he will at
no timo bo lodged in jail, or restricted
in bis daily habits or personal move

but he bus ccusod to bo a marshal of
France or even un ofllcor in her army,

GKNrilAI, A MNF.HTY AT LAST. WarH-
noto.n, Doc. H. Tho repeal of the lest
oath und declaration of general am
nesty by the House today will bo
hernldud usun act of just magnanimity
on the part ol the Jicpublicau majority.
Thcro are very few persons in tho
South who will bo boueliled by it. It
wus.
however, a measure which should
have rucoivod Iho unanimous support
of every member, but tliero wcro
twnnty-iiino Budiculs who wero not
yot j.ropared to suy that all rocolloo
tion oi our tinhiippy war should bo
blollod from our slululo books. Ono
or two little minds vociferously an
nounced that they would not favor a
proposition which would onublo Jeff
Davis lo lako a scat in tho House.
This soomed doubly Iriviul in vjow of
the fact thut tins day weeU t MP IJoiiso
unanimously agreed thai tho Vice
President of iho Into Cuiifvdcrney
should have the host scat in lh,e iull.
Anna B. Bossutt, of Boston, who
sued her husband to recover StifiO
which she ' loaned" him after their
innrringo in liiO, has lost her case on
Iho ground that no contract between
husband and wifu for tho paypiorrt of
monoy bus any validity in lavy. That's
tt niunry detision
The Chief Jusltce.
It has always boen customary In
tho Kenatv to confirm the nominations
to olllco of ex-members of thut body
without a reference to iho opproprialo
commitloe, as it tbe practice in other
cases. Hometimos this rulo is relaxed
in favor of eminont persona who have
never been In pnblio lilo.
When, therefore, tho nomination of
Georgo H. Williams was referred to
Iho Judiciary Committee it was a sig.
n i flea nt dupurture from tho usage
which meant In -phlin torms that the
nomination wns one not til lo be mado.
Tho delay on it since thou is confirm
alory of Ibis woll founded impression.
That cotnmitteo consists ot Mr. Kd-
munds, chairman: Mr. Conkling, Mr
Carpontor, Mr. Frolinghuyson, Mr,
Wright, Mr. Thurman, and Mr. Ste
venson. They are all moro or less
distinguished in the lugill profession,
and several of thorn lire recognized as
standing in its front runlt. Mr, Wright
of Iowa is perhaps tho loust known
nationuiiy.
All of these Senators are not only
superior to V illiams in ability, attain
monls, and professional position, but
they know him to bo destitute of a
singlo qualification for tbo great office
which tho President has shamefully
prostituted for his bonotil. ' Tho ques
tion now is whethor they will lend
their aid to degrade the Chief Justice
shin. '
Tho suosvrviency tu ftxeuuilvo dic
tation which has become so oonspicu
ous of lulo is not onoouraging in a
case like this, whore the President
brings to bear personal solicitation in
addition lo official influence. The
whole social and political machinery
which is sot in motion at tho White
House is now exorted to procuro a
confirmation, upon, the plea that ro-
joclion would impliedly cast censure
upon the President. '1 his is the sort
of argument used at Washington to
consummate a gross outrage on tho
highest judicial tribunal, und it will
have its ellect on bonators who should
be above such submission.
Mr. K. Kockwood Hoar was rejected
forAssociato Justice without ono of
the reasons thnt apply so forcibly to
this man Williams, Ho stood high as
a jurist, lug chaructor was exalled.and
no reproach ever stained his good
namo. let some of the mom bcrs ol
this very Judiciary Committee stronu
ously opposed bim. We shall sue
what they will do now: when it is pro.
nosed lo drag tho ermine of tho Chief
Justice through tho iniro ol lillliy in
trigdo, and to confer the highest honor
upon a roan without merit, integrity,
or fitness.
Tho press of the country without
distinction or party has pronounced
against this nomination, becauso it is
unworthy. There is not ono public
act, opinion, argument, or proceeding
which can be cited to cxlenuuto this
wrong, whilo on" the other hand noto
rious venality, low arts, and abuse of
every trust which huvo signalized the
career of Williams, such a it is, rise
up in judgment against him. Tho

" H'arninr to Republican."
Such is iho caption of an arlicle
written by Chailes A. Dana, editor of
tho Now l ork &un, who was Assist
ant Secretary of War under Lincoln
Tho ediior in qucrtion proceeds to ad
vit liia party triondo In llii win
"Wholly asido from the Liberals
llioro is a very lurgo body of regular
Republicans who are and long havo
beon deeply disgusted with tbe man
agemont of their party. These men
shrank from the thought of restoring
tho old Bourbon Democracy to power
even in a modified form, and therefore
they refused to support Horace Gree
ley, and aided in the rg election of
ticn. tirant last year.
The present rear, and in all this
section of tho country, they constitut
ed Iho great mass ol voters who ro
luscd to go lo tho polls, and thereby
indirectly contributed to ihe half-and-
half Democratic triumphs in seven or
eight of tho central and Eastern Stales,
In tho States of tho North west and
on the Pacific slopo it was theso dis
satisfied Republican who guvo the
victory to the rurmors, the lndcpcnd
cnts, nnd the Anti-Monopolists.
It is very evident that this class of
Republicans bold tho future fortunes
or tho party and of the country in
their hands. 1 boy dotost Credit Mob)
lierjhypocriles, back-pay nnd forward
nay grabbers, Pacific ituilway swind
lorn, Washington King robbers, Sena
tors who buy their scats, Heprcsonta-
tives who sell their votes, and all sorts
ot corruptiomsls, thioves, jobbers, and
charlatans, especially if they cluim to
be Republicans and aloal the mantlo
ot Christianity to cover their roguery
If the Republican managers In Con
gross koep on as they have begun,
then by the closo of the session I hoy
will increase fourfold the number of
disgusted and indignant Ilenublicans.
Tho elections next full will be a repe
tition all ovor tho oountry of what lias
taken place this lull in Illinois, is-
consin, California, and soino other
Weslorn States, resulting in tarrying
an opposition majority into tho Uouse
ol the forty-lourth (;ongross.
Whatlhcuf Wo answer:, tho ov
erthrow of the prosont liepublican
party ; tho probablo linpoaohmont by
the new House of somo hulf dozen
high officials j nnd perhaps tho eloo
lion of an opposition I'rssidont in 1876
Will the honest Republicans In the

and act upon tho wcll-foundod n-siimp
tion that about one-fourth of their
party nssocintos in each richly doservi
