The Indian Robberies.
It was gonorally supposed that the
depth of official corruption and politi
cal immorality was reached and ex
posed when (Jakes Ames 'blowod on"
the "Christiun Statesmen" who com
posed the Credit llobiller ring. But
this is not tho fuel. Senators and
Congressmen are not the only parties
who aro robbing tho National Treas
ury of its millions. The "Indian
ring," which, it is true, embraces a
number of Congressmen, includes at
lenst one Cabinet o HI cor and soveral
heads of departments. ' For proof of
this, wo rofor to the lettor addressod
to President Grant by a prominent
Philudolphian, and published in the
daily journals of January lOtb. Tbe
editor of the Philadelphia Press, in
alluding to this matter, says:
"Our tatcoiard follow-oitlzeo, William Wo'fb,

One of the charges mado by Mr.
Welsh is to tho effect that tho Socro-
tary of the Interior pays money upon
fraudulent voucher, and cites the case
of a clerk in tho Iudian oftice,at Wush
ington, whose family resides in Now
ork. This clerk is in the habit of
visiting his family quite frequently,
and be is allowed 945 per trip for fare
and $6 per dny for expenses, in addi
tion to his regular salary of $2,500
per annum. The regular furo between
tho two places iudicated is 113.20 for
the round trip, loss than ono-third the
sum paid by the government.' This,
Mr. Welsh remarks, "is a moro illus
tration of tho chargos before mo at.
the moment, yet it gives an Indication
of -tho general management of the
Indian office." Mr. Welsh's loiter i
rather lengthy, j ot ws will lay it be
fore our readers in a few weeks, so
that they can road it for themselves,
and learn how our public affairs are
managed at Washington by "the In
dian ring," right under Grant's nosu.
Wo adviso Chairman Murray to
study these Indinn affairs, because
there ore some first class canoe-pad-dlers
to be found among these chil
dren of the forest. Besides, Mr.
Welsh's letter is oxccllent reading for
a rising philanthropist.
Judge dumber Three.
Grant bas at lust found a Chief Jus
tice to plcaso thnt learned, loyal and
dignifiod (1) body, presided over by
tho virtuous (!) Matt. Carpenter, for
merly known as the United States
Senate, but now merged into thu
"head cenlro" of the land grabbing
and Credit Mobilicr rings. Williams
was good enough for Attorney Conor-
al : Cushini: was not too much of a
rubel to bo a Foreign Minister, but too
disloyal for Chief Justice. Honre
both aro thrown overboard, and on
tho third trial the name of Morrison
11. Waite, of Tolcdo,Ohio, is sent into
the Senate, and he is very miraculous
ly confirmed. Wbo Mr. Wait Is, few
poople, oultide oi Toledo, seem lo
know, llo bas not even a State rep
utation as oither judge, lawyer or
legislator, and ho hits been elevated to
a position which none could reach
heretofore unless they possessed a na
tional reputation upon ono or all of
those points. Mr. Waite's father, we
believe, was Chief Justice of Con
necticut, fifty years ago, for a short
timo, and this may bo tho reason wby
Grant has picked him up.
Wo soo it slated that tbo new-Cbiof
Justice nover even saw the Supreme
Court, until about a year no, whon
Grant appointed him, with dishing,
to go to Geneva to settle tho Alabama
Claims. After his appointment, Gush
ing sent for bim and had him brought
lo Washington, and while on a tour
through tbe city, showing him "lbs
sights," happened lo turn up in tho
Supremo Court room, whore bo had
him introduced and sworn in as a
practicing Attorney beforo that Court.
Now bo is Chief Justice ! However,
ho may muko his rcputution beroaf
tor. His age is fifty-six.
Bad CooKr. iNO.It appears Ibat
Ilonry D. Cooko, lute Governor of
Washington, President of tho First
Nutiouul Bank of that city , and brother
of Jay Cooke, has defrauded tho boirs
of the lute Chief Justice Chose out of
$50,000. This "cbrictiun banker" was
mado the solo executor of Mr. Cliuso's
will, and thereby came in possession
of $50,000 worth of United States
bonds, which he took and exchanged
for Northern I'ucifio railroad bonds.
The heirs now own thcao worthless
bonds, which Cooko traded for. Was
there ever a baldor fraud perpetrated
on any heirs than this? As Grant
mentioned his brother Jay, io his an
nual messsgo, he should pay a similar
compliment to Harry, in bis next
document. -

Letter from HarrUbuif.
IIarriiuho, Jan. 2G, 1874.
Ma. Editor : Legislation is pro
irressiniT favorably al the Capital.
Tho old lobby members of the sessions
sgone are twn tst, and no ono com
plains of the dullness of this winter
over that of last winter, except our
landlords. Wino census to flow as il
unnil to when the Third House wits
boro in full force, toasting and drink
ing the health of vcnorublo Senators
and mombors.
The elegant rules preparod onder
tho new Constitution lor tno govern
ment of both branches of tho Legisla
ture, work so smoothly and regularly
thnt everything brought forward fur
consideration is discussed by both par
ties in a gonllomnnly, dignified, und
srgumontuiive way, and the decision
of the majority is submitted to with
none of tho political hatreds that
characterized iormor Legislatures.
It is indued a ploaauro to sit and
liston to thoir proceedings, unj-ull vis
itors srfeak of iho dignity and general
conduct of tho House, as a vust Im
provement over f'ormor years.
But few bills tiuvo as yet bcon acted
upon. Heretofore, at this time in tho
session, the private calendars would
havo begun to appear bulky already.
Now there is no private hill calen
dar, and the only bills acted upon aro
those of public importance.
McClure's election bill, in tho Sen
ato, (of which I wrote you in a previous
letter,) was amended in the Senate, by
striking out many of Its sections, and
inserting in their stead the i'ogislry
Law, under which wo have been vot
ing sinco 1870. For an entire week
the Senuto was considering its pus-
sage, and endeavoring to amonu it
where it wusobjcotionuble.and to pro
vide guards and checks where there
were probabilities of frauds being
committed. On Thurddity last it
passed tbe Senate will) but ono dis
senting vote, after being strengthened
by several amendments suggested by
Mr. Wallace. The bill whs afterward
sent to tho House, whore it wits
placed In charge of the Judiciary
Commiltoe. After undergoing import
ant changes by this committee, il was
reud in the House for the first time,
on last Sulurduy morning. Fours are
entertained Ihut it will not pass tho
House, wilhout being so amonded that
its origin Mor ad frumcr will scarcely
recognise it as his own bill.
A pleasing feature of the Legisla
ture here lat week, was the tirsl re
repiion to them, given this winter, by
Governor llurtrunlt. It was in all
respocts as brilliant nnd attractive as
any given last winter, by our Govern
or and bis estimable wife. Nearly all
the members and employees of the
Legislature, together with very many
ladies and gentlemen of this and oth
er pluces were present. At this ro
ceplion, (as is characteristic of all
Gov. Hartranfl'a receptions,) both
rich and poor woro cordially invited
and made to fuel themselves al home.
Only lemonado nnd colics were served
to the gnosis. Dancin.r was much in
dulged in. The utmost harmony,
good fueling and enjoyment seemed
to pervade iho usseinblnge, and the
throng was groat up to nearly mid
night, when the muxio coused and the
guests departed. , Tils' next reception
uf tho Executive will be giron at hia
mansion, on Ibe cveniog of lobruury
10th, 1874.
Politics aro beginning to run very
hi I'll in Ihis cil7. Three candiditlcs
(or Mayor being already nominated.
1 no negroes ol the city, about 450
voters, and who have heretofore voted
kho Ilepubliruii ticket, have rebelled
against tho Republican cundidute for
Mayor, and set up a canclidato of their
own color. This difficulty will result
in the election of Seiler, the Demo
cratic candidato, ulthough the city
lias neon iierololuro liupuulican.
iho court hero is onguged in tbo
triul of two colored mon who were
arrested for the murder of a wbito
man, a f.rmer.'livitig in the lower end
of tho county. The triul has been
continued for three days, and the
evidence fur lbs Slate is not yet all
taken, iho general impression is
that thoy will hung, as all tbo evi
dence thus fur in is uguiiist them.
Thero is much excitement among
the peoplo, und hiiudrods'of excited
citizons follow them from the court
hnuse lo jail and hack aguin every
day as their triul continues.
Among the principal legislation of
the Legislature, last week, were tbe
following: Ono requiring tho House
Corrttnitteo on Mining and Manufac
turing to i n q ii i ro into tho cuuse of the
suspension of tho coal business in the
Schuylkill region, with power in send
for persons and papers. Also thai 2,000
conies of the report of the Commis
sioners of tbe Sinking Fund be print
ed for circulation.. Copies oi Iho new
Constitution are lobe sent to even'
Jildo, Alderman, Dislriel Attorney,
Justice of '.he Pence, and cunty offi
cer in every part of Iho Slate. A
supplement to Iho act exempting $300
from levy ami salo was also passed
Tbo oloction bill will bo considered in
the House this wock, and no doubt
will pass finally. Yours truly,

Lndor Iho circumstances the Gov

The now Secretary of Internal Af
fairs will, in efl'ocl as lo duties, be
about the same as Iho present Surveyor-General.
Why not then just
lut tho Purveyor General occupy a
place in this Board f This would car

that all pardons must bo recoinmondcd

Tart of the time of the House last
week was taken up by tho discusson '
of Mr. Sumner's Civil Right bill.
Several speeches wore delivered upon
it, among other by Mr. Stephens, of
Genrgiu, aguinxt, and two negro mem
bers in favor of. Tho gullorie jwore
filled wilh negroes who appaared to
take great intercut in tho dubato. A
vole has not yot been taken on tbo
bill. If it does not pass Congress it
will be because the Republicans bave
gone back on their bluck allies, their
only hopo to retain powor. We do
not believe ibe negro raco will ever
got any "civil rights" that aro worth
having, by force of law. Congroc
cannot make oil and wator mix, and
they will not stay mixod if brought
togelhor. This bill forces negroes
everywhere on an equality with the
whites, from ibe opera house to the
cemetery. It compels their reception
at tho hotel table, and, wo suppose,
might bo construed lo forcing a black
and white man to occupy tho same
bed. A while man can bo refused ad
mittance anywhere, to a holol table
or other placos, if iho owner or
proprietor docs uot wanl him ; but if
this bill bocomes a law, a negro can
not bo refusod. Such a law, loo, will
revive thu old antagonisms between
tho races, which all are pleased to see
aro dying out a the passion of tbe
war are subsiding. Equality bolwoen
the races al the hotel table, in tho
concert room, and in tho sleeping car
cannot be enforced by legislation, be
cause they are matter of lust, and
boyond ibe confines of law. The
friends nf the negro mako a great
mistuke in trying lo force him wher
ever the whito enters. If ho can gel
there by his good conduct and mem,
lie will bo sure lo bo received and
welcomed. M'e do not believe Con
gress hus the right to legislate on a
subject that is purely nf State concern.
It is certainly an infringmenl of tho
right thai 'belong exclusively to the
Suites, and is a long step in tho diro.
tion of thai centralism toward which
wo are rapidly drifting. We do not
object to the black man receiving all
the right whito men enjoy, but wo
do nol beliovo a law of Congress will
help him to get them. Socially, and
civilly, loo, in tho meaning of-theaot
of Congress, he mut work out his own
sulvalion like other racos.
