THE DEMOCRAT. E. B. newLEY.,EinTot. "Intros°, Wednesday, Feb 1873 SNow, six inches deep, in this streets of London, is another evidence of the re markable, nharapter of. the winter of 187'2 1 3. ' ' " Mrcichauges are calling upon Nast of Harpers Journal of De bauchery- to furnish caricatures of the laredit . Mobilier bribe takers. The sub ject is withourdoubt one of the best ever offered, but as the mission of that sheet appears to be to defame honest men and 'shield the thieves, it will be us Bless to look for anything in that line from that source. Ix is suggested, since Tweed end Col fax were so nicely caught by their bank accounts, that tile National banks be re quired to burn all memorandums accom panying deposits. Lied this plan been adopted some years ago, in all probability the $1,200 deposited by Colfax, two days afterhe received a check for that amount in dividends from Credit Mollifier, would never have been brought to light. THZ New York Times was iery'efficient in pushing investigation in the Tam many frauds. It was used as a campaign document by the Republican National and local committees, and sent broadcast MT the country. It was delivered free by till postmasters, and pushed in the face of Democrats everywhere. It is now meek as a lamb on the Mobilier frauds, whem its immediate friends are concern ed. It has nothing to say. Tin Chicago Tribune in speaking of the present Vice President of the United States, uses language the like of which has, never bees employed toward a Vice President since the days of Aaron Burr. It says No man during this generation has been more conclusively prdren a corruptionist, a bribe taker, a liar, and a perjurer, then Schuyler Colfax. There is not a loophole of possible escape. TILE Washington Chronical, Senator Harlan's papar a few days ago, got off' the following concerning Senator Pomeroy : "Those who know him intimately and well believe him to ba one of the truest and purest of our public men, as they know him to be one of the most goner- Otte This is what they use to tell us about Colfax. Wilson, and other shining lights; but where are they now ? MR COLFAX has failed to appear before IV Investigating Committee to explain the circumstances that implicate him not only in corruption, but perjury. He has, however, found time to lecture in Phila delphia, and also in Baltimore, upon scltsluu 1% UV, murals: Porn causes suffer by such advocac3, and it is the height of effrontery for a man laboring under the most serious auct.unexplained charges to beassuming the part of a public instruct or. He ought to remember that example is better than precept. No one ever heard of bribery and cor ruption id the elCction of United States Senator until Simon Cameron came upon the• State. He was smarter than Pont eroy in not dealing directly with put-- ich&seable material. When one vote was necessary to his election and Bbyer of Elk county was elected as the victim, he was effered and agreed to accept $5OOO, for his vote, by one of Cameron's friends. Boyer did not vote for him, and he thus lost hie election by one vote. IT is p lain to be seen that somebody is hurt when Grant's Own, the New York Times pronounces the C. 31. investigation "a tedious farce," and thinks "the coun try is getting tired of it." The Times did not think that way when it made its raids on the Tammany thieves. The thieves and bribe takers and their organs are the only ones who are gettip tired. The people want the investigation to go on and farther, they want the guilty par ties punished. Puorourrosur, representation was giv en great prominence in the inaugural message of Governor Hendricks, of In diana, and a bill has been introdncel into the Senate of that State applying the 'principal to the election of Commissioners in the different counties of the Common wealth.- An Indiana exchange says : That in Illinois, the, first conspicuous beneficial effect of this Ilan appears in the fact that it has increased the actual representative basis of the House of Rep resentatives from about 247,000 to ur ward of 407,000; an increase in the number of Toter"' actually represented in the House .of tuore than forty per cent-- This fact is one of enormous significance. TEE Fatale Debt statement for Janu ary shows another increase during that month of over. four hundred thousand dollars, which added to the increase in December,. $1,684,307, makes over two millions in two mouths, the very first two monthsafter the re-election of tirant.— It will be remembered that the excuse offered by the organs for the iDece.mber increase was that the accounts of revenue officers had been delayed and that tlie statement for February ist., would show a handsome decrease. What excuse will now tie given °to 'calm the fears of the tax-payers remains to be discovered.— This 'may be considerate as a coonn drum for.t4e editor of the Montrose 'Re publican to answer.. 4 little more of_lits .(!) is needed. . Cat:Jen Death of ex-Governor John W. Geary. 11..mtursuuno, February B.—Ex-Gov. ernor Geary returned home beim New York last evening, 4 apparently good health. At about nine o'clock this morn ing, while at breakfast with his family, and in tho act of helping his little son to something upon the table, his head sud denly fell back, and by the time his wife . _ could get to his side, and before medical aid could be summoned, he was dead,... It is supposed that heart disease or apoplexy was the cause of his death. The city is excited, and much sorrow is expressed. The lllkon- of the Credit ?Rohner. On the 18th inst.-, in the Constitutional Convention, Mr. Boyd of Montgomery stated that the Credit Mobilier had been put through the Pennsylvania Legisla tare for $50,000, whereas the New York Legislature had refused $300,000 for the job, and the New Jersy Legislature $150,- 000. Thietras denied by Mr. Smith of Lan caster, who said: The true version of the story was that a gentleman of a speculative turn got the bill passed when the Pacific Railroad was beicg talked of. The name of the com pany was then changed to the "Pennsyl vania Fiscal Agency.' The charter,etock book, ect, were then stolen and taken to New Tork, where the real Credit Mobil ier Company was formed. The contriver of the scheme got 8270 out of it instead of £41,100,000 which would be his "jest" share. We have seen a private letter from a gentleman very prominent in financial circles, from which we were allowed to make the following extracts: I thought it might interest you to know something nearer the truth than is given by the two very intelligent gentleman who referred to the Credit Mobilier in the Convention. • * • The name by which it became a law was the "Fiscal Agency"—or a term signifying the same thing. It was afterwards changed to Credit Mobilier by Durant, when he get con trpl. The onginal charter was ob tained by the late Duff Green, who went to Ilarrisburz for the purpose and stayed there till he accomplished it. The char ter not was obtained with a view to the construction of the Union Pacific or uny other Railroad. General Green's scheme was too large to be comprehend ed within any such limits as that—as any one would see by looking at the provis ions of the Act with' its varied and com prehensive powers. The adventurous Colonel Scott never conceived anything one-tenth as big. "The 'exult was that Gen. Green's scheme was so immense that nobody I would take hold of it, and the grand pro ject was still-born, and it remained inani mate for many years until revived for a I more ignoble purpose. _ _ "I hate no belief th it Duff Green ever paid a dollar to obtain this charter, or that a dollar was ever paid to obtain it by anybody else. In the first place Green had no money to pay with ; and in the second place, that waa not his way of doing business. And it map be well a : e —2 .1... 1..11.111. a1 ry of his control, he received any thing for it." It appears that the charter was offered to the Union Pacific Rail Road to be used for a "Constitution Company," at its or ganization, but was not bought nor thought to be of any value to that Company by the directors. Some two years afterwards, as we are informed, it was bought by Durant, of the indomita ble Train for a large sum—even as much as twenty thousand dollars. Sach is the true origin of the Credit Mobilier scheme. As for the rest of its history. is it not written in the lament able speculations of many prominent per sons, and in the eternal disgrace of Col fax and Wilsop, and other pions leaders of the Radical party ?—Pittsburg Post. THE New Orleans Picayune, in com menting upon one phase of the present political difficulties in that State,remark - s; "convincing proof of the utter falsity of the charge made by Duren's Governor that frauds were committed by Conser vatives at the last election, is to be found in the feet that the United States Dis trict Attorney, Beckwith, has not even attempted to bring one of the alledged culprits to trial. The United Statesdttorney-General is sued peremptory instructions to have all such cases tried. This order was received here in the early part of November, 1872; and yet, on the Ist of February, 1873, not even the pretense of an endeavor has been made to comply with the mandate that was issued on the mendacious statements of tLoso friends of '3 higher order of eir- - ilization." LIE New York Tribune commenting on:the action of the House on Thursday in restoring the names of southern pen sioners of the war of 1812. says: "The House was manly and generous yesterday, in restoring to their place on the pension rolls the Southern survivors of the war. of 1.811 That they should be stricken off that brief roll in a moment of patriotic passion was natural enough, even though it may-not have been certain that they voluntarily sympathized with the rebellion; but it is too late now to discuss what peculiar views these aged veterans of another war had in 113 1 ;2. Nobody wiff taunt Messrs. Butler, Bing ham, and Willard with having courage to say now for; Southern men good words -which they would not have dared to say during the late campaign. We are hearti ly glad that these gentlemen can honestly declare there is no longer any use in pol ishiug up the memories of the rebellion in order to keep them bright." HUNDREDS of people were frozen to death in England during the late cold spell in that country. The winter of 1872.73 has been the most severe experienced in Engr land within the last third of a century. Jobbery at atorrbburg. The Harrisburg correspondent of the Philaaelphia Press has been at work ran :sacking the records and showing that the expenses of the clerk of 'the Senate for :1872 for keeping is repair the Senate chamber and four committee rooms to be $28,019 10, and the House $19,688; in all, forty-two thousand seven hundred and eight dollars, and this, it should be rem embered, does not include any additional furniture but only for refitting and re pairing the old. In olden times this would have been almost enough to build a new capitol. The same correspondent also tells us that the Senate has a Libra rian who last year- received for service, $l,OOO for extra compensation in taking charge of the archives $l,OOO and for four months' extra services $1,200. And this is not all, for we are still fur• ther informed that in addition to this strm of $3,200 paid to S. S. Childs as Librarian of the Senate, Jacob Styers is also paid as Librarian of tile same body 8400,'which makes the expense of taking charge of five hundred volumes amount to $3,600 per annum—more than is paid to the Librarian and assistants in charge of. the largest library in Philadelphia for twelve months' services, while the prince ly paid Librarian of the Senate are not engaged three months in the year. 01 course all these irresponsible and reek less'officials are loyal to the ring, but it is well enough to let the people know how the money goes. The Bankrupt Law The Importers' and Grocers' Board of Trade of New York have adopted resolu tions protesting against the repeal of the bankrupt law. They declare the law a necessary and salutary measure, as equal and impartial treatment of creditors iu the whole land is demanded by the inter ests of trade. The bankrupt law pre vents the fraudulent transfers of assets to favored creditors, as was formerly too frequently the practice of dishonest bank rupts. For honest debtors they declare the law to be a great beneti t, as it pr)tects them against oppressive claims of unscru pulous creditors. It gives creditors an opportunity to investigate fraudulent transactions, and to bring the guilty to an account. The law promotes mercantile morality, and produces fair colipromiiee between debter and creditor in greater number than was formerly the case.— `They therefore regard the repeal of the act as a calamity to the business world. FRED. DOUGLAS is in a bad tenor be cause of the lack of appreciation by the Republican party of the services of the colored people in the late campaign. In his paper of last week he says: "The col tred voters who labored with zeal and ef ect for the success of the Republican par ty in the late Presidential campaign have to take back'seats in the Northern States. We knew of an instance in one of the De- q.nor,ll - Cl4 ELGIII, ter having proven his ability under the civil service rule.i, was denied an appoint ment for some trumped-up reason outside the rules of the civil service, which left no room to doubt that the non-appoint ment was , r , n account of coloC Flow dm Fund 141111 'Cubed The much talked of Credit Mobil er not only purchased Congressman, but it paid fo: them out of profits obtained by the most daring frauds. It appears that after the Railway Company had built one hundred and thirty eight miles of the road, Messrs. Ames, Alley, and Durant of the Railway Company entered into a coutract with Ames, Alley, and Durant of the Credit Mobilier Company, under which contract they received precisely the same compensation fur building these hundred and thirty eight miles of road, (already built,) as they .did for the same number of miles they actually construct ed. This piece of road cost, originally, $3,450,000; then the new contractors were - paid $6,900,000 for pretending to build it! By such means were raised the funds used to corrupt members of Congress. After such a lesson of depleting the public treasury, of bribing members of Cougrev, and of diagrucing the whole people in the eyes of the civilized world, one would fain hope that a quietus would be put on all schemes by which the gor. eanment would he dragged into a part nership in so called public improvements. Any internaeddling of government with what are purely business matters will always give rise to fraud, robbery, and public scandal. What pregnant proof has. been afforded by the disclosure* of Oakes Ames, of the absolute necessity of the country falling back upon the good old doctrine of strict coastruction of the powers of Congress. ~.. Congress owes it to itself and to the people to lay a heavy hand on all concern ed in these iniquities. The people call for justice, Mercy would be only offering inducements to the commission of great er evils. "8111" It is gratifying to find that the Demo crats of Philadelphia are not disposed to coalesce any longer with this creature, and have wisely ruled him out of the city committee, which action has been en dorsed by the Central Democratic As sociation of that city. “Aluttv" threatens vengence, that ho and his Fourth ward crowd will net distribute the tickets en dorsed by the C;ty Committee, in all of which, considering his telegram . to Dia. trict Attorney Swoop of this city on the the October election that "I have kept faith, Philadelphia will give twenty thou sand majority" the Democratic party will be benefitted thereby. Let the same in fluence that has ruled him out of the city affairs endeavor to keep him out of the State contentions of the party and if they cannot accomplish it, the convention it self should put him out. He is a dis grace to the party and injures it when allowed to take part is its deliberations. Let him remain with the Hartranft crow.. for whose success he labored so incessantly in the late campaign. The decent De °racy don't want him. READ the large number of New Ad• vert!semebts in this week's Democrat. The Plea of Insanity In homicide caries, is the subject of a bill introduced in . the Legislature by Sell °tor:Wallace. If the bill shall become a law; uo defense on the ground of "insani- , ty" can he made, unless by special plea beforehaiullto that effect, yenned by the oath or . affirmation of the counsel for the prisoner, or some other person ac quainted with the facts upon which the plea is based, and this affidavit is to state concisely the evidence relied upon t) sus tain the plea. This appears to be a de cided improvement upon the loose prac .tice which now prevails, under which a I homicide, whenever all other defenses fail him can become insane long enough to secure au acquittal from a ecluded jury. and then in a few weeks become of "sound mind" again. The other sections of the bill provide for the proceedings after the special plea and affidavit are put in. The trial is to be postponed ; a commission consisting of two doctors experienced in the study and treatment of insanity, rind one lawyer, are to be appointed to exam ine witnesses, take testimony, and report I their opinion ; their report is to be sealed I until the trial comes on, when it is to be opened and read to the jury.; it is not, however, to be considered us conclusive or binding, but as "persuasive evidence," subject to further examination, cross-ex amination, and 'to the decision of the . jury. On the whole, the bill seems to have been well thought out,, but as its purpose is to bring about a desirable new practice, those wlie have isivon uttootioat to the subject should write to Senator Wallace or to their representatives. Judge Finletter promulgated some good sense, or well as sound law, concerning the insanity plea during his charge in a homicide case a day or two ago. "In , sanity," he said, "is not innocence. If the defendant could have resisted the int- I pulse, he was guilty. It he was alone governed by an evil heart and bad pea -1 sions, and they so found, they should con vict him. But if his iusanity was so great as to control his will, he is not res ponsible, and should be acquitted. The jury must not conjure op an ingenious i doubt to escape from rendering an IlJ pleasant verdict but the doubt must be a reasonable doubt, such as would cloud a man's mind in transacting his business, and must arise from the evidence. - -P/ii/a. Learn. TUE World 81),Niki ng of the recent over whelming evidence of corruption in Con• gross, EMS Such, then, is the latest ejection from that Etna of Republican corruption which seems latterly to have burst, after long smouldering, into po:tentous activity. One piece of damning rascality follows so close upon another in the Senate, and so twiny of those who sh inld form the jury are proven or probable criminals themselves. that we fear "Sribsitly Pore is fore-ordained to escape. Yesterday it was perjury in the Senate t to-day it is bribery: and to-morrow some new form of fty may still further distract the hon es .ten on the jury, and by adding to the number of known criminals increase that silent but powerful opposition which now impedes every effort for punishment, puri fication, and reform. Strong, however, us to this undertow, the ultimate expulsion of the other Kansas Senator seems to have been assured, and a faithful and fearless demonstration by the• sane , ele ments which have almost prevailed against Senator Caldwell may result in - 1_0). IT will be r"membered that daring the last contest fir Colermir of New York, general Dix, the Radical candidate for that r:sponsible office, was charged with aving received a large amount of money front the Pacific Railroad for service in negotating its bonds in Europe, and that the tennsacti9ns occurred white he was United States Minister to France. This was dented, in the same manner that the charges against Vice-President Colfax were repndiated. But General hie has been put in a bad position by Clark,Presi dent of the Pacific road. Clark, on a re• cent occasion,at Washington,testified that Mr. Dix received a fee of fifty thousand dollars, as above stated; tha; be failed to sell any bonds, but kept the money. Can the General explain this matter, or will he promise to do so, like Vice-President Colfax, and fail to keep his promise? Tli E Radical Governor of Florida is not content with the election of Conover to the Senate from that State. Conover does not belong to the Governor's wing of the Radical party. Besides, Conover received the votes of twenty-seven Democrats, which fact has a fishy flavor in the esti mation of the Governor. But Conover was chosen,and Gov. Clark now promises to punish those Republicans who voted for hint in the Legislature. How, is not stated. Perhaps, in attempting to apply the lash to the backs of these men, he will expose himself to still more severe castigation. Jr appears one woman has been found who can hold her tongue.
