OFFICIAL INVESTIGATIONS. Senator Lowry yesterday offered, a resolu tion in the Senate ordering an investigation Into the administration of the Soldiers' Or_ plans' Department, under Colonel McFarland, and accompanied his motion with the unmanly and, we believe, untrue remark. that the Super intendent "had been poor when he went into office, and was now rich." - The habit of recklessly charging public offi . dials with malfeasance in office is fearfully on the increase, and very few indeed escape the malign influences of this pernicious habit. A few dire ego, Congressman Kelsey stigmatized Assistant-be' cretary Hunter, of the State De partment, as " a malignant rebel, whose house bad been a rendezvous for rebels" dining the war. Mr. - Jenckes promptly refuted the slander, and Mr. Kelsey then con fessed that he'had made the charge upon mere - rumor. We believe Senator Lowry's charge against. Superintendent McFarland is of the same serf.. We have watched' that Officer's career closely and constantly, and have never been able to see any reason to doubt the hon orable and upright character of his whole ad ministration. Indeed the expenditures and general,husiness of the Department are so ar ranged as to make it very difficult even for an dishonest official to grow rich out of it. Col. McFarland tics poor, when he went into office, in one sense, but he was rich, in another. He was poor, from the loss of a leg in the service of hfi Country : and he was poor in this world's goods, as , poverty, is counted at the capitol. But he Was rich in a good name, a habit of frugality and industry, and,—we may be par_ Boned for saying it—a thrifty and faithful wife. From his pension and salary as a clerk in the Auditor-General's office, he bad saved enough to purchase a piece of property in Harrisburg,' and this Investment• has appreciated in value. This, we believe, i 5 the beginning and the end of Colonel McFarland's "wealth," and will so appear, should the Senate think it necessary to investigate a question, all the facts of which lie immediately under the reach of every member's personal knowledge. We have no interest whatever in screening ' Colonel McFarland's administration from the most careful scrutiny. We have every confi dence in the ability of that officerto meet every fair investigation ; but we refer to the subject as another illustration of the prevalent habit of starting insinuations against the honesty of public officials; when a little . personal inquiry will fiequently satisfy the inquisitor that there 15 no ground for suspicion. A NUSAIAN PLOT FOILED. This day, the 70th of February, according to a late letter from St. Petersburg to a Vienna paper, was fixed upon by conspirators in Russia to massacre the whole imperial family, and the Germans who are connected with the Government. On this day fifteen years ago, the Czar Alexander came to the throne, and the conspirators thought that a good way of celebrating the anniversary would be to have a Russian St. Bartholomew or Sicilian Vespers. The conspiracy is said to have been very ex tensive, the papers discovered already impli cating over seven hundred persons, including a . good many women.. A great number have been arrested and have disappeared, having pro bably been sent to Siberia. 'The object of the eonspiraey is - said to have been to create a Government purely Slavic, jealousy of Ger man influence having had something to do with the formation of a party that proposed to begin a new regime by a massacre. It does not appear that any attempt was to he made to establish a Republic or any other new form of Government. The conspirators are not Republicans, but of that haughty hereditary nobility that has opposed the abolition of serf dom and all the other liberal measures of the Czar Alexander. The absolutist monarch is, fact, a truer friend of the people tban the party that would like to de stroy him and his family by a plot more vile and more extensive than tha which destroyed that other liberator of slaves, Abrams Lincoln. In ' fact the Russian arts toeracy and the pro-slavery Southern aris tocracy .of this country may be considered as having a good deal, in common. Each consi dered it important to keep a large portion of the people enslaved and ignorant; Freedom anti education to the once degraded class in each country are considered monstrous _by the aristocrats in each. The people, who are the great power in America, resolved that all should -have' freedom, following which comes education. The Czar, who is the great power In Russia, has given freedom to the serfs, and his 'initiated measures to give them education. So the Russian Wilkes Booths, &c., were going to' make this day memorable by a horrible massacre, which 'would have done as little to check the progress of freedoin and education in their country as did the murder of Lincoln in the United States. The people of this country will reloice at the frustration of the plot intended to make this day memorable, as itley rejoiced, some years ago, when the, at tempt of an assassin upon the Czar's life was frustrated. The defeat of the National Railroad Com pany, at Trenton, in ite effort to secure the con struction of a bridge over the Delaware, is to be repelled on more than one account. It will probably throw the Camden and Amboy ennttoversy again into Cougreee, and it will be very generally accepted as an indication that ere old company is not yet content to rely upon open competitkm to maintain no businerrs. , That the tree railrmad idea will, t °once or later, become the universal ride of this country, can not leasnnably'beclat!tott d, and,every attempt to retard it by, s9[Ch teiistanoe as was (demi to the ICatlOnal 'Railroad Company, this week, at Trenton; will result in expediting rather than pteventing its extension. bellei'p that 'the Camden and Amboy Company, with all its complete organisation and great resources, can' afford to accept the inevitable competition of another road, and it is the best popes , to meet such 'a competition in'an open and fair field, and not to invite prejUdice and hoStility by'efforts to prevent the exercise of a popular sentiment, the existence and rapid growth of which are so clearly ap parent. That the State of New Jersey can long Prevent the people of New 'York and. Pennsylvania from a free transit across her territory is a proposition so far behind the times, that we cannot avoid the conclusion that it would have been far better to have al lowed the National Railroad 'Cleummny to build its bridge, than to invite the further agi tation of a controversy, the issue of which is, to say the least, so exceedingly' doubtful. The scandals of the time of the Regency seem to be revived in England. The divorce case of Mordaunt vs. Mordannt is on trial be fore the Court of Divorces and Matrimonial Causes in London, and yesterday the testimony revealed most shockingly vicious conduct on the part of Lady Mordaunt, the heir to the throne, the Prince of Wales, being one of her partners in guilt. The revelation is made by her own confession. The Prince is , said to deny her story, but the public generally believes it. Those who have read Justin Me- Carthy's article about the Prince in the last Galaxy, will be disposed to credit all that is said about him. It is worth while to mention that the despatches of the New York Associated Press say nothing about this case, although it has created tremendous excitement throughout Great Britain. The news concerning it comes exclusively in the despatches of the American Press Association. George William Curtis. On Thursday evening next, the 24th lust., the fifth lecture of tbe Star Course will be da• livered at the Academy of Music, by George William Curtis, Esq., who will discourse upon " Our National Folly—the Civil Service." Besides having a reputation as one of the, ablest journalists and mast delightful authors in the country, Mr. Curtis is well known as an eloquent and dextrous orator. He was one of the first to agitate the subject of reform of the civil service, and be has been one of the most persistent And powerful • advocates of the -scheme, upon the platform and in the columns of Harper's Weekly, the journal of which be is the editor. Indeed, Mr. Curtis has ever been foremost in the advbeacy of every liberal na tional measure of whatever character, and he has probably done ai much as any living journalist to educate the people up to a love for purest liberty, awl a sacred regard for hu man rights. This fact alone should recom mend him to our citizens; and as the lecture on Thursday night promises to be - .'a rare in tellectual treat, an additional inducement will be offered which ought to crowd the house. TOE IYlvru.st, LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY. —When we get among the figures of the an nual statement of the Mutual Life Insurance Company, it seems more like the examination of some great department of the National Treasury than of the affairs of a private 'corpo ration. Assets, liabilities, income, expendi tures are all expressed by millions ; giving the reader some just idea of the magnitude and power and stability of this great corporation Thus the gross assets of the company are now *37,579,168 61 ; while its losses paid during 1869 in cash were $2,017,464 99. The income for 1869 reached the splendid figures of $15,494,141 55. The total expenditures, in cluding losses, dividends, taxes and all other expenses, were $8,189,025 60. The cash pre miums during the year amounted to $13,287,_ 448 69, and the interest on investments alone was $2,129,839 86. These figures,•taken almostat random from the detailed statement of the Company, give some of the grand results of the superb ad ministration of one of the greatest private corporations in the world. The "Mutual" stands at the bead of the Life Insurance busi ness in America, and has but one or two rivals in the Old World. And it possesses the merit of wielding the great powers which always accompany such an accumulation of capital, through the agency of a corps of officers who command the highest respect of the commu nity as gentlemen who are alike noted for their business capacity and for their high characters as men of personal integrity and worth. President F. S. Winston and Vico President It. A. McCurdy are gentlemen of the highest standing in New York, and the General Agent in Pennsylvania, F. Ratchford Starr, Esq., has a well-earned reputation as one of the most reliable and intelligent under writers of Philadelphia. • NAVY Citornmo.—We call attention to the announcement of Paymaster Dunn, Chief of the Naval Bureau of Provisions and Clothing, that the time for receiving proposals for cloth ing for tbe Navy has been extended to the Bth of March next. The contracts are now rigidly confined to parties who are manufacturers of, or regular dealers in the articles they offer to furnish, and close attention is being paid, in order that our sailors' may be properly and substantially clothed. It will be observed that a portion of the proposals have been with drawn from the original requisitions. Buntlug, i llurborow dr.

M. a train of sixteen cars, filled with people, with three le comotivem in front and two behind, made the tour of the bridge and a vimit to the cities of New Albany and Jefferson, amid the cheers of the populace and the booming of cannon. As the train was returning,and when about a quarter of the way over the bridge, one of the rear loeomotives ran oil the track. The en gineer of the first engine, which was a power tut ones not knowing of the accident, kept on, breaking one of the couplings and leaving about one-half of the train off the track with its human freight. Great consternation pre- Tailed among the passengers, which was quieted whenit was known that no ono was hurt. The front part of the train kept on. until after reaching the Kentucky side, and in returning to the assistance of the remainder of the train also got off the track on the draw over the , canal.

A GRAND 40ANAL SCKEUE. union' tboTehnantepee Istiltutth-fittlp Canal from Orear to eeettn...Letter of the Mexican Minister et Public Works. HAVANA, February 16, 1870-The fol lowing is the letter of the Minister of Public Works to the Congress 'of Mexico, transmitting the projected - concession for a ship canal through the Isthmus of Tehuan tepec. The bill will come up for final action in April next : DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT, COLONIZATION, INDUSTRY COMMERCE OF TAB REPUBLIC or Mastic°, If ;mice Jan. Pt, 0,- 187-To the C. U. Deputies ) Secretaries of the Congress of the Union: The Tehuantepec Rail way Company has protented to the govern= went of the republic propositions asking for authority. to establish a canal across this Isthmus of Tehuantepec to unite the two oceans by a direct communication. The government would like to give this pro position a more extended eir • mination, and to present to Congress a corresponding pro ject of laW, for to that body the solution of the question entirely belonge; but considering the near approach of the close of its session and the magnitude and importance of the enter prise, the citizen President has decided that the original project should be transmitted to the national representatives. Conse quently I send it herewith, so that the proper committee may examine it with the particular attention that it merits and report at au early day. The pro posed enterprise will unite the Atlantic and the Pacific by a direct communication across the national territory, will facilitate the rela tions of Western Europe with the eastern part of the Old Continent, and will be of immense advantage to the commerce of the world, and especially to that of America, becauSe it will enable the people of this Continent to have a direct, communication from one shore to the other, and with Europe and Asia, without be ing compelled to make the long and tedious passage around Cape Horn. The Tehauntepec canal, if opened, would become the great commercial centre of the mercantile world, and the wealth and pros perity of the republic would" , be incalculably augmented. Besides these immense , advan tages, Mexico would have the glory of having constructed within its territory one 'of the grandest works of the ago. .Tbe government of the United States is con- teruplating the union of the two oceans, and its attention is called to the Isthmus of Da, rien; but it must be remeuibered that the , different explorations already made dennonstmto that the Isthmus of Tehuan tepec: presents v the least difficulties for the accomplishment of this object. If the project solicited by the company is adopted, the atten tion of all persons interested in the. construc tion of a canal will be directed towards this enterprise, which can be executed in compara tively short time, and the republic will thereby avoid the grave prejudice which would arise from the construction of a canal across the isthmus of Darian. I do not believe it necessary to discuss the question; further, because the wisdom of Gongrese sufficiently appreciates this project, ayid consequently will take proper action unreel).

A Pittsburgh paper of yesterday says : At four o'clock yesterday afternoon a Eire broke out in the furnace shed of the American Iron W Irks, situated in Ormsby borough, and belonging to Jones & Laughlins, destroying property to the amount, it is reported, of about twenty thousand dollars. The portion of the extensive building which has been laid in ashes was that in which the furnaces are located, and covered au area of about one hundred and seventy-live by about one hun dred feet. The building was a frarne structure, the roof covered with sheet iron. The tire originated in the iminediate vicinity of one of the furnaces, and is supposed to have been communicated from there to the.roof. The fire department of East Birmingham visited the scene of conflagration in force, but there was no chance for it to go into service, as the fire apparatus belonging to the works bad possession of all the supplies of water and by the diligence and energy with which' the furnace bands worked the main building was saved from destruction. Two ofthe large furnaces,containing alarge quantity ofiron, are reported to be seriously damaged, and it is tipou this report that the estimated heavy loss is based. The loss on,the building alone will not molted four thousand dollars. , We may state that the disaster will not, se riotisly interfere with the business of the es tablishment, and that the . damage will be re paired - at once. Nothing could be ascertained concerning the insurance. FIRE IN NEW YORK. Mee Mills Destroyed. The New York Sun says : Last evening smoke was seen escaping from the second story window of John Fitzgerald's rice4wills, 296 and 2.l Cherry street; but owing to the heavy tog, it was at .

At about 84 o'clock the flames burst from every window and door of the six-story , building, illumine, ting the whole of the lower part of •the city. At about! o'clock the walls fell, crushing in the. brick stables, Nos. no and 452. Until this moment all the surrounding buildings ' and those on the opposite side of the street, were considered in danger, as the wind.was high and the flames shot out full forty feet.- The estimated loss on Fitzgerald's stook is about $16,000, and on ma cbinery from $35,000 to $45,000. The building was owned by A. T. Briggs, and is totally de stroyed. Loss, $lO,OOO. The damage to the stable is estimated at $5,000, the horses having been removed. A large tenement house, No. 244, adjoined the building on this opposite side, and the tenon's, especially the children, were rescued with difficulty by the Seventh, Ward Police.

The bears were gestated in e4cnring the decline by the apparent reduction of Mr. Boutwell's currency bah nee to - the extent of about $6,000,000. rte against the , amount of currency on hand this day week, which, taken together with his strength in respect to coin on hand, over and above gold certifi cates, seemed to favor larger sales next month. Gold at 119, ' however—the lowest , point it bee yet, reached . Bina it touched that figure in its upward movement utter te suspension of specie paymentsseemed too tempting alirere to importers ; and cinder a fear of their appear ance in the market the" shorts"deemed it wise to cover, old their purchases, together with some for customs, reified the market and brought the premium back to 11936, from which:it receded again to '%, continuing t fluctuate between that , figure and 11934 up to the close of business. It is dillicuit tt, tell at this time what influence the pro posed revision of the budget by the Committee of Ways tdul Means, by which it is proposed to reduce the ap• propriations for the year to the - extent of.

The statement that sivii was the intention of the committee was repeated in the street by,telegramfrorn Wit.diington to-day, and much ettnvessed, but . its effect upon , values cannot yet ho determined. It should be borne in mind that when -Mr. Honteell . submitted his estimates for the current year he solicited an appropria tion of ;MAXON° in excess of last year. This 'amount, we are informed, was subsequently, neon conference With the Ways and Meanie Comulittee,reduced to about 133,000,000. The inquiry is pertinent at this time whether the proposed reduction we now hear of is to he upon Mr. Boutwell's estimataa.either as originally sub mitted oreince amended, or upon last year's appropria tion. , Holders of gold had their Valances curried at rates ranging from /534 down to 3 per cent., and exceptionally at ••• fiat," or free of interest.
