Does it not kneels* the Demoted° party every
where to out loose from mon who are thus proved
to be - unworthy of confidence and unequal to tee
responsibilities of high station? This Is the quer
tion which appeals to Demoorats in Congress.. The
point has been reached, and cation most be had.
Many of the prominent' men of the petty do not
hesitate to advise the abandonment of the Charier
ton Convention, In view of the foot that the same
'practises which have been resorted to to keep the
adherenta of Leoompton afloat will be organised
to control that body. Senator Johnson denounces

Shall it be the Congressional omens, with all the
shortcomings of members of Congress for the last

I Still adhere to the opinion that some action will
be taken upon the tariff before the adjourimeut on
the 4th of hiareh: With all the figuring of the Beare
laity of the Treaeury, it is evident that unless this
;i done the Government will find itself minus.
There Is a resolute determination on the part
of the friends of a fair discrimination in favor
of our lodaetriae, to allow none of the more' im•
portant measures of the Adminiatration to go
through until such conocasions have been made to
their wish.' as will satisfy their constituents.
A single paragraph in stay eppropriation bill
would, to ray opinion, be oonelosive—the re-enact
mint -of the tariff of 1846, with the free Sit
of 1857, and. speelfice upon °attain . staples
Coning in competition with our own labor
and Industry, would do the work. This is the
auspicious time to do , ft. All the efforts of
the pseudo economists to bursas* the revenue by
taxing issetage with higher rates, and to reduce
the expenditures, are resisted, for the simple reason
chat the inereaae, on the one hand, would. be most
dhdestefel to the people, and the reduction at a
permanent cantbleretion, on the other, oould not be
maintained. The feet is, It is too, late to push
those reforms through. Means must be provided
to maintain the Aduclnistretion, and this is the.
work to which Congress must .a ddress itself. •

In the exercise of his disoretionary power; Mr,
Graham, Secretary of the Navy, appointed Mr. B.
N. Springer, a retired coal merchant of Philadel,
phia, the agent , of the Government to purchase
anthracite coal. Upon receiving a requisition for
coal he went around among the , coal dealers, re
calved their offers, and took-the-lowest bid ; -andt
upon its delivery either he or his son was upon the
wharf to see that it was weighed correctly' and
shipped in good order. The' compensation of the
agent wee fixed at fire per cent commission.
In May last, Benjamin Tyson was the coal;
agent, and several applications were .made to the
Secretary of the Navy for the plane. The mode,
of purchasing the coal, the saltation of, th,e agent;
if needed, and his compensation, Were, by. the
law, entirely at the discretion of. the- Secretary.
The coal business had largely increased, so that
the amount annually purchased was;' in 1848,
about 55,000 tone, being &larger amount than in
previous years, and the per center yielded 'a
larger salary. In May, 1858, some of the 'appli
cants met at Washingten, and at a conference- with.
'each other and their Merida, (among -witethwast
the Hon. J. Glam. Jones.) it was agreed that Dr.,
Charles H. Hunter, of Reading, Pennsylvania,
'should be appointed- coal agent; and that the
emoluments of the office - should 66. equally divi
ded between him, john P. Smith and T. Law
rence Getz. warm personal and political friends
of the President, who hart contributed largely to
his election. , Hantet and lemitk were both appli-:
'cants for the of ice of coal agent ; Getz was a mem
her of. the Pennsylvania Legislature, And then
and now the editor of 'the Reading Gazette. Bach
of the parties above slanted was examined by year
committee; and also G. Nicholas Bearth, whose
connection with - the trapeaotion will., hereafter:
apar. - •
M pe r. -Smith testified that he was in Washing
ton in May lest, and was present:when the ar
rangement for the appointment of Renter, was
made. That some of the. applioapts and their
friends bad a conversation to arrange things ami
cably if they could. Finally it was agreed that,
if the Secretary would appoint either of'them, he
should appoint Dr. Hunter, me Getz, and Mr.
Smith That the arrangement was oomosunioated
to the Hon. J. Glancy Jones, then animater of this
House, and that (he Iresident also understood
that the emoluments of the- epee were to go to
the three. As this was deemed important by the
committee, the witness was eastained and re.
examined, by different member; of the commit's*
as to the - knowledge of the President; he re;
pelted that the President knew that the three.
were-#o divide theemotunvate of the effeei
and, that the'partles w ere satisfied with the dept.,
sloe; but he knew nothing about the arrange
ment whether one-half was to go.to one party and
the other half to the other two or not. - - -
. .
Mr. Gets testifies that be was at Washington at
the time; and was informed of the arrangement of
for_ the. appointment of Dr; Hunter,' andthat he
((sets) was to have, one-third of, the profits.. He
agreed to it with a " mental reservation." Re

Mr. Beach (V. Nichols) , testified that bola' a

Navy; 'that he Was on intimate relation); with him;
that be was in Washington when the arrangement
of the appointment of Dr Hunter was maderthat,

This letter'was sent to the Peortdary of the Nee, by
the President, with this endorsement:
" September 16, 1868.
std The inclosed letter from Colonel Patterson, of Phi
la4elphra, is subtn4tted lo the attention of
,tile Secre•
wiry of the Navy • 1 - H.
The undersigned regard this as a serious arena°.
It le the duty of the Secretary to determine which
of the bidders was the "lowest responsible bidder,"
sod to award to him the centred. It Is a‘judiolal
act. The rights of pettier' under the law, and the
rights of the Government, were involved in the
award. Any suggestions of feet or motive; except
those which would enable theSeeretary to adjudge
which or the competing bidders was the lowest re
sponsible one, was improper. The Secretory was
the subordinate of the President, balding office at
his pleasure, naturally controlled by his will; and
by law hole frequently required to award and ad
judge without regard to the President.—(Decatur
vs. - Paulding, 14 Pet., bl 5. 6 How., 101-1)
lln
der these ofroumstanohs the President suggested
to the Secretary, and in writing called his atten
tion to the importance 'of awarding one of the
eontraots for umobinery' to Merrek & Sons, in
order to secure that firm in favor of the re.elec•
elan of the potent political influence of Colonel
-Fldrence . , and thus place the result of the election
in his dtetmet beyond doubt, end generally to in
ereese the influence of that firm, thatlt might
be exercised le favor of the Democratic pasty.
• If the preperit had suggested to a 'ridge of the
Dotted elates courts that he render aludgment in

pending before him, because that tuditutent, ?soul

Wnpeachment Is it a lees serious *Tanen when
,this suggestion is made by the president to the
-Secretary of the Navy? The judge it beyond' the
power of the Preildent; the ,secretary is within
his power. Each is required to perform hie judt

1 civil offloorof the Goiernmept, had, while be 'was
a member of this House, received money from the
-Reading Forge for his services in obtaining for fit
'outruns with the Government.
Our attention was first called to this charge by
the testimony of Dr. giving a statement
of James Murphy, a oontraotor for the eonatruo.
don of the steam machinery for the United States
steamship Brooklyn.. The purport of thi Mote
l:6ot was that he was obliged to lot the forging
for the recant to the Reading Forge Company,
understood to belong to Mr Jones. An intima
tion was also made to Mr. Qrantaid, of the If or;
gan works, Now York, the sueoersful bidder • foe
the Ponsaoola sloop, that if he got the forging
:Work done by thalteeding Forgo, it, would be Re
oeptable or satiefaotory to certain parties. -

tified that he, as secretary, and treasurer ef. the

the effect that, if he toottidlet work fat; EU forge

By the third section of the same act It is pro
vided- _ -
"In every such contrast or agreement to be
made, er entered into or. accepted, as aforesatd,
there shall be inserted an express condition that
no member of. Congress shill beadmitted to any

The interest of Mr. Songs in the contracts be
tween the Government and the Iteadlng Verge
Company was certain; direst: and purely Of a pe
cuniary nature ,
the third section of the act of fehrtiary'26,
1853, it is provided that if any, member of Con

Indictment as for a misdemeanor; the penalty is
a Abe of $l,OOO. or Imprisonment, or both.
The otter design of these laws wee • to, prevent
a member of Congress from having any pecuniary
interest In a contreet with any _officer of the
Government, or in any other claim against the
Government. Whether a contract of agency to
procure contracts from the where the

law, might be a matter of doubt; 'bat it I/Laically
