The Philadelphia 'Press has this sensible article on' he now prevalent practice of defaming public men.

Chamber inquisition into all his affr fairs; private and public, has . finally won the right of defending himself in open court, or rather in open com mittee, and with a result that cannot fail to be satisfactory to the country and the President. The ablest offi cers at the head of the different naval bureaus, including Admiral Rodgers, of the Yards and Docks ; Admiral Howell, Surgeon General Palmer, Chief Engineer Shock, Commodore William N. Jeffers, Chief of .the Bu reau of Ordnance and Pim:basing ; Paymasters Cutter, of New York,l and Russell, of Philadelphia, have testifloil to his official and personal -integrity and impartiality, When the Secretary comes to his own di rect defence we look for his complete vindication. • It cannot have passed the memory of the Democrats that there never was a. complete system of faVoritism . in the departments at Washington, to go no further back, than the Administration of James ' Buchamin--,especially in that of the Navv—and when the Republicans recover, as they certainly will in the coining November elections, the con trol of the National House of Repre sentatives, they may, again open the books of past Democratic adminis trations and balance the account be tween the two parties. Every mem ber of the CabiLet, from the begin ning of Gip- Government down, had his friends, and if he trusted them, it was doubtless because he preferred them to strangers ; and if Mr., Robe son preferred his friends, the Cattells, 1,0 others, the Gopirnment lost noth ing. Public position always attracts applicants for place and patronage, and, in the very nature of things, he who dispenses power or disburses :money looks for assistance to those he had previously trusted in private' life. One of the earliest accusations ' against Washington, now utterly for- ; gotten, was that he favored the se lection of SEe site of the present Na tional Capital because he was a large owner of real estate in that quarter. Every Governor of a Territory, from A:eller:a Cass, at the head of the Ter ritory of Michigan, down no doubt to the Governors'cof the present Ter ritories, e was expected to realize something beyond his salary by se lecting choice stretches of_public land. On this head the sli! , litest in quiry Would produce a volume of historic facts. High station in any country is always perilous; and, judg-: ing by those who, have filled such stations during the last hundred years in our country, we may well wonder that sensitive and honest men. especially if• they are poor, should- allow. themselves to be tempt ed into these dangerous responsibili ties. Apply this democratic rule to the whole body of legislators of both sides, and the disclosure would follow as remain as the night the day—that Most of them have made fortunes by their opportunities in connection with the Government departments : not a few of them in open despera tion. but nearly all with the full con sent of their associates. The same results would follow the enforcement of the same rule in all the Cabinets and Parliaments in Europe. It is hest, in such an eXigeney as the pres cut, to lace the full facts of history. Good will come from the comparison and contrast. Certainly no sueli -harm will re,rard the tAforts of the - Detnocrats, to destroy Republican reputations as the restoration ,Of these Democrats to the contiA of the Government they rushed into re hellion. and, after firliting, for its de struction, covered with that colosal, debt front which alone Republican .-talesmert can deliceril."

THEIIE IS A GREAT SIiNSATI in the house. Blaine has se times been interrupted by apply TIIE LETTERS. The first letter Mr. Maine real( addressed to Fisher; and was 1861. It . referred to a settlemet tween the writer and Fisher, and contained an illusiOn to a.sl ),000 note givrt for Spencer rifle s ock: Mr. Blaine said an explanationt way neeesiarY in reference to this iotc. Two years before he came into jeon gress, the *persons who owned the patent for the Spencer rifle came to hiM and said the rifle ring inWash ington•was so strong that they get' no chance for a contract lie came to Washington and succeeded in getting the War bepartint‘nt to recognize the Spencer rifle, for iThich service he was paid a reasonable tee. Mem:tills, before he came into ' l t7oil•- gress, he was asked and took $10,.. 000 of Spencer rifle stock, whiCh he paid for. The next letter was dated - August 9, 1812, from. Augusta, in answer to a letter from Fisher asking him for a note for $6,000 on account. In this letter, *Blaine claimedlhat Fisher was owing°over $7,000 on the LittleTto...l: matter.

The next letter was one of JOly 187:2, ,giving further particulars of this dispute. The next was dated April :?r,, '872. and in it Mr. Maine answers Fis lees request for a letter of cre • dit:of 'slo,- 000 on Jay Cooke & Co. • The fir:it:letter referred to a teis ion made by Mr. Maine, as Speiker; on the last night of the sessiOn of ISO, ruling out an amendment Offer ed by Mr. .lulian, to annex the lem phis & El Paso bill to a bill relating to the Little Rock toad. 11(4. Lagan. at the suggestion of the Speaker, made a *point of. order against the amendment, and .the Speaker ruled it out. This was some months b i ,..fore he (Illaine) became interested in the stock. or the road. The additional hitters were then read in full, Mr. Blaine making an explanation! in regard to one which referred to $t;,000 of Union Pacific bond;, which Mr:Blaine mid belong. ed to it member of his fainily,lGail Ilamilt4m, and upon which hei had Lilt money. These bonds 'level' be longed to him. There were three °titer paper in cluded among the setters, relating to the Northern Pacific Railroad, eon eerr.ing which Mr. Blaine said noth- ing, except that he would have them printed in the record with the letters. Another letter dated October 14 1871, is as follows: MY DEAR Fish 1.4 lam 00ing all in my power.to expedite and ihas ten delivery of stock. The delay has been occasioned ; by eircumstarecs wholly beyond my control,but I s L hall reach a+onelusion within a few days awl make formal delivery then.

Mr. Ilunton, chairman of the sub- Judiciary Committee,to whom the investigation had been referred, made un_ expbutations slitting that Blaine had told ' him the ;resolution offered by Mr. Tarbox attached to him, (Blaine) and he *anted the investi gation prOceeded With as rapidly as possible, which had been done. The only delays had been on Blaine's ac count. it had been at Blaine's de sire that the committee took up the matters relating to him first, and yet he (Blaine) seemed surprised that the ingniry in%'•olved an examination into these Pacific! Railroad matter*. and claimed the committee had no jurisdiction; under Mr. Luttrel's res olution, of a stunk transaction be tween two individuals. When Mul ligan mentioned incidentally ,these letters of Blaine, the latter had whis pered t0.31r LitWreneelto move an adjournment, and Mr. Lawrence, say ing he was sick, did so'. ' ' Mr. Lawrence here interrupted, saying he had been sick that morn ing, and had been ill ever since, and Blaine's desiring - him to ,Linove an ad journment was nut because of any fear or what was going on.

The 1 sulecoMmittee. however, had been selected before Blaine wa. implicated in any of the alleged fraudulent transactions, and he had nvited Mr. Frye, Illaine's personal friend, to take a position thereon, and he had refused. Mr. Knott said that Blaine seemed to insinuate that the Judicia ry Committee desired to - )revent his nominaticin at Cincinnati, and added that they were perfectly willing that he should be nominated, and if lie were not tefeated in the ciAning caw oai!rn then their ; cause 'wcre,. indee , •‘ele- - ' If It -ted au aopeless.

I hurl the falsehood, back to the teeth of any man who makes the suggestion of suppression of that dispatch 1 re ceived. I , (lid not suppress it at all. In less than thirty minutes after received it I read it to sever:it gen tlemen ; but there was no particular address in London from which it 1. purporthd to come, and I did believe c —and am not altogether certain yet ' s that I do not believre—that it was a, r fixed-up job. . , . Mr. Hale, of Maine—The dispatch purported to dome froth London, and did , not that indicate. to the gentle man from Kentucky Where to tele graph to Josiah Caldwell ? Mr. Knott—l hail information that Caldwell was in , Italy building rail roads there, and Inot in -London. There being no point in London deS ignated in thel i dispatch, it struck me as being a little 'singular that "I 'should have behn expected to address a reply to London, where there are three or four millions of people. I might as well have gone to hunt for a drop in -the ocean. i Mr. Iliall asked if Mr.linatt didn't know that the telegraph office ,in Lotidon N‘ 4 olllll forward a message to Cold well's l address ? • ?. 1 Mr. Knott said that Mr. _Hale kr,C.'w mor. about it than he *did, and in answer o calls for reading of the dispatch, tated it was at his house, but was s ihStantially as Blaine had stated, the , urport thereof being that \) Caldwell laid 'seen Scott's testimony in the Newt York papers, . and that it was sulist-intially correct ; that he had not lilt . Blaine have any bonds, and that h i e would send an affidavit to that effeht, but that he was en- . gaged in 4. railroad enterprise over there and eould not come to giVe his testimony without serious pecuniary , loss. This isi what is in it, and if the gentleman had only Waited, that dis patch would have been presented to the Committee for whatever use the Committee !night see', proper to male of it. I had no desire to injure the gentleman from Maine personally, and especially not politically; but-de sire that the truth may be told. As for myself, : I had no 'knowledge of any transaction by . the gentleman from Maine inconsistent with the highest personal integrity.
