The Democrats of New Yoik take
as naturally to rebels and traitors as

led to a rebel victory, and a defeat of
the Union army.
The passage of the Civil Rights
bill is stirring np the blatant fools of
the South. Several tavern keepers
la Maryland and other Southern
Stales have published notices that
their bouses have been closed for fear
u "niggpr'1 might seek entertainment
thereat. There are ten chances to
uae tbat these sensitive landlords
were suckled by negro nurses, played
with negroes as boys, and have held
close communion with them all their
lives, and now forsooth, tbey are
eternally disgraci-d if a negro enters
their hostelry.
Two of the new Democratic U. S.

which will crop out Ik-fore he returns to

' Taupv justice has at length been
awarded Hjn. Simon Cameron by
the Congress of the United States.
On Teesday morning last (2d inst.,)
tbe following resolution was offered
in the House bv xlon. Gunm Jcc-;
field and viianimoutly parsed:
WvEitfcAS, The House of Representa
tives on the SOlh of April, W2, adopted
a resolution ceasunng 8imon Cameron for
cei t iin alleecd irregular proceedings as Sec
retary of War in the matter of purchasing
military supplies at the outbreak of the re
bellion; and
Whereas, On the 2Cth day or the ensu
ing month, the then President of the
United States. Abraham Lincoln, in a spe
cial message to Congress, assumed for the
Executive Ilepartmect ol the wovernmeni
the fullest resjionsibility of the proceedings
complained of, declaring in said message
that he should be wanting equally in can
dor and in justice if he should leave the
censure to rest exclusively or chiefly on
Cameron, and addinz that it was due to
Cameron to say that although he fully ap
nroved of the proceedings they were not
moved or suggested hy him, and that not
only tbe President but all other heads of
departments were at least equally respon
sible with him for -vhutever error, wrong
orlaultwas committed in the premises;
therclore.
Heiolrrd, That this House as an act of
personal iusticc to Cameron, and as a cor
rection of its own record, hereby direct
that said resolution be rescinded, and that
the recision lie entered on the margin of
the journal where satd resolution is re
corded.
The bouuty bill tbat proposed to
irive all those who had served in the
army a Iwunty of $3 33 per month
for every mouth spent iu the service,
met with a curious fate at the close
of the session. Tbe bill was first
passed by the House, it was then
passed by the Senate with amend
ments; when these amendments went
t j tbo House they were first non-concurred
in, and the bill went to a com
mittee of conference. Ou the report
of this committee the House with
drew its non-concurrence and agreed
to the amendments of the Senate.
The bill was igned by the Speaker
and by the Yice President, but when
tbe conference committee came to re
port to the Senate, its report was laid
ujon the table. The friends of the
measure insisted that it bad neverthe
less beeu properly passed, but the
President, not agreeing with them,
refused his assent to the bill, and so
it failed. Had '.he bill became a law
it would bave taken $100,000,000
out of the Treasury, principally for
tbe benefit of tbe claim agents, they
holding, it is alleged, a vast majority
of the claims and being chiefly in- (
strumental in working np the bill. j

Philadelphia, March 1. George
W. Plumly's paper box factory, at
Fourth and Rranch streets, caught
fire at G o'clock this morning ajd
was en'irely destroyed. The front
wall, on Fourth street, fell, carrying
down all the telegraph wires. The
factorv was verv extensive, eivins
emn ovment to 2.u eir a. who are
thus thrown out of work. The loss j
is total, but the amount is not yet as-!
certained. Tbe building was worth
$50,000, and the stock was valued at
$40,000. On the stock there ia an
insurance of $38,000. The building
is only partially insured. The tian-
ulaetory was op-rated by a stock S
company, of which George W. rium-j
ly is President. At 10 o'clock the ,
wall on tbe Fourth street side fell I
out into tbe street, but fortunately '
no one was injured. Ihe origin of
iinenrewai accidental, lbe engi
neer, it seems, was oiling the elevator,
when he clipped and fell, break
ing tbe lantern, which ignited some
light material on the floor. He
stamped the fire out the best he could
and tben ran for some water. In
the meantime the flames spread with
frightful rapidity, and when he re
turned he found bid services of no
avail. Then it was that the alarm
was sounded.

Messrs. Mitchell, Christy, Morgan,

Mr. Huhn claimed tbat the injus
tice was more fanciful than real, if
the cost of mining was considered.
If the tax on coal was repealed,
Representatives must bo prepared to
restore the tax on real estate or see
a deficit in tbe Treasury.

Mr. Mitchell argued in favor of
taking tbe tax off bituminous coal and
claimed that tbe treasury could
stand it very well even it it became

Mr. Fineher claimed that if tbe tax

TIIK CAISE OF TROUBLE.
Sir: Thurlow Weed having lived
eighty, years in this woi IJ, bus a why
for almoft every wherefore. Ilar
in" .)i vea reasons euough fr tbe
troubles in tbo Itepublicau parly,
han undei taken, in a letter recently
written, to show how we can return
to specie payments, or rather why
we uu tioi come 10 11. lie sua

dren. He asserts that tbere are 10,-
000 ladies in New York whose cus
tuines, when in full dress, ctst at
least $1,000 each, aud ib-u same
ladies fifteen years ago w. old bave
made, quite as Cue a sU jw ou $250
each. Also, that ten thousand chil
dren cost now froi $100 to $150
each for dress, against $10 to $25
fifteeu years ago. This is all very
eli, Mr. Weed, but how about the
extravagance of the men. True it is
that the goods used by the ladies all
coma from Kuroj', and that gold
goes from here there to pay for them;
but have the sterner sex no extrava
gances to answer' for How about
boots at $20 per pair, made of im
ported leather? How about tbe
thousands of young men, and old
ones, too, who keep their measures
in Puns, and w ho use up ten or a
dozeu suits per year, at fancy French
prices? How about the French
wines: tbe French brandies, and the
FrenchaImofct everything else that
that class of men use, and use exclu
sively: How about the men whose
cigars, al 25 to 50 cents each, come
from Havana,' whose eating is half
imported, and who go abroad so reg
ularly to enjoy pleasures which,
thank Heaven, are not as yet ac
climated ' here.
The fact is, Mr: Weed, the men of
New York, and of the country at
large, are just as extravagant as the
women, and if anything, more so;
and when contraction is forced upon
tbe country, both sexes will be com
pelled to give np their weaknesses.
AN EXAMPLE.
This terrible extravagance is not
produced by the really rich men of
the couutry. The richest of them
live very simply. Daniel Drew
Ii res as plainly as though be was
worth less thau some millions, aud
so does Peter Cooper. A. T.Stewart,
the great merchant, whose wealth
has mounted up till he does not
know himself how much he is worth,
rides in omnibuses lo and from his
place of business half the time, and
he has been seen on the box beside
the driver of his delivery wagon. Of
course, he has carriages, but they
are for use aud not display. One
young man who failed for $400,000,
but whose wife was conveniently en
dowed with a very large estate be
fore the failure, remarked tbat Stew
art was rich euough to afford to so
ride.
THE IJKl.OARS.
The number of professional beg
gars who are now infesting the city
is absolutely fearful. They haunt
offices to a degree that makes life un
bearable, llalfoftbcm make trade
of some sort a pretext, carrying for
sale such light goods as matches,
blacking, etc., but the other half ask
for alms without qualification. Stur
dy men claim to be unable to get
work and women have the usual
story of sick husbands and childrea
Of course a very large per cent, of
the professionals are foreigners, and
very frequently the mistakes they
make are funny. Let it be known
that the manufacture of placards for
beggars is a regular busiuess, and
that tbe beggar can furnish himself
or herself with any cause of distress
tbat may be thought to be most ef
fective. , Ono boy w ho sits oa Union
Square, an Italian, displayed a pi a
card ou which was written "This
poor woman was left a widow with
four small children." He displayed
this placard two days, when it was
shifted to something more in accor
dance with the actual situation.
ICE.
In consequence of the warm win
ters of 1873-4, the ice companies more
than doubled tbe price of tbat very
necessary article last summer putting
it entirely out of tbe reach ol
the poorer classes, and troub
ling those better off to bave all they
wanted. This winter has made such
ice as has not been seen for years.
The bo.ks are any thickness you
want, from 18 inches to tour feet and
as hard and solid ns granite. The
question is, will ice be any cheaper?
I be supplying vl the great city is,
unfortunately, in tbe hands of two
companies the Knickerbocker and
the Washington and tbey own all
the best fields near tho city, which,
with their splendid organization and
imnieuse capitul, enable them to buy
out or kiil all rivals. When other
companies are started these grim
monsters put down prices to below
the living point until tbey arc driven
out, and tben up it goes again. In
this way they have managed to keep
the trade in their own bands, very
securely. The prices of last summer
will bo maintained if it is possible to
do it, for the ice companies bave no
more soul.- than the railroad, tele
graph and express companies. The
people will be compelled to pay the
last cent t .at can be extorted from
them, for they never did have sense
enough to give opposition companies
their support till they were able to
stand alone.
l'RACTICAI. I5F.XEYOLENOE.
The Young Men's Chi L-tian Asso
ciation did a good thing the other day
one ijf the very coldest days of the
i w inter. I bey made codec, steaming
bot aud very strong, and deputized
men to stand at convenient places
aud ! vc it to tbe drivers of the street
cars. The poor fellows, standing all
day on the front platform, exposed to
tLe furr of tho elements, found tne
mug ot coffee not only grateful but
useful. It did more tu ararnt them
than the lightning whiskey tbeywere
in the habit or taking, and it is a
pleasant fact to record that the next
dayjtbe coflee bops were moreireeiy
patroni'.ed by the car drivers than
the whisker mills. Possibly the Y.
M. C. A. desired to show them how
superior cottee is to wnisicey. it
I t W .
Was a good aud ttiougutlul tbing to
do, at all events.
Py tbe way, the car-drivers havp
about thp worsj'lives of any laboring
men in the city, Tbey worf? from
fifteen to seventeen hours a day in all
sorts of weather, and receive there
for the uiuguiCceut pay of $2 15 per
day. Aud as they take the chances
I of beiug killed by roughs, ot freezing
to death, and various other unpleas
ant thing?, is it any wonder that
tbey strike once ip awhile ? It is a
shame that nien,shotild be compelled

inz money by the cord: but what can
they do? They have to live, and
shpuld they all quit, their places
wouta fje . unea in a aay s time.
: .
There are too many men out of work
iu New York to enable labor to suc
cessfully dispute with capital. If
the Y. M. C A. could only induce
the corporations to pay, their men
decently, tbey would do a greater
work than the distribution of coffee.
BEECHEK-TILTO.V.
The great scandal still drags its
slow length along. Tho Tilton peo
ple rested the case with the testi
mony of Mrs. Moulton, and now
Bcecher has his innings. Mrs. Moul
tou wa$ h surprise to everybody.
Her testimony was clear and explicit
against Reccher, and besidep, she is
more difficult to impeach tbao any
of tbe other witnesses. Reecber
himself has put upon record his idea
ot ber in more ways than one, and
bis statements of her absolute truth
fulness must count terribly against
him now. Kvarts tried all sorts of
expedients to find a flaw in her state
ment, but without avail. She was
by all odds the most dangerous wit
ness to Reecber that has yet been
called.
The defense of Reecber will be, of
course, what was foreshadowed in
his statements last summer, vi.: tbat
tbe procedure has been first to last a
conspiracy arranged to extort money
from him and to ruin him. He can
take no other line without falsifying
his previous statements. He may
succeed in establishing this, but it is
difficult at this writing to see how.
Of course no one knows what wit
nesses he has, or to what they may
testify, but it seems impossible that
he should successfully break down
Tiiton, Moulton, the woman Carey,
Richards, the brother of Mrs. Tilton,
and Mrs. Moulton. But we shall
see, or rather bear what we 9hall
beir. Let us hope tbat justice will
be done, and that the right ones will
feel the scourge.
BUSINESS
still lags. Tbe importers and jobbers
are doing comparatively nothing,
and the agents for home manufactu
rers are in the same coudilion; yet
the feeling is more hopeful than it
has been. Tbe mercbauts insist that
the stocks are nearly exhausted, that
the people have money and that
they must bave goods very soon.
They all look for a revival of bushiest
in the spring, and for a thoroughly
prosperous season. Muy their hopes
be realized.

In Winter's Train.
PutLAPELPiiiA, March 2 Mayor
Stoekelv and a delegation ot miit
owners along tbe Schuylkill river
made a survey of the ice gorges at
Fairmount and Manayuuk, and have
made some arrangements for blowing
np the ice (which iu places is twenty
five feet high) by means of torpedoes.
Operations are to commence at the
lowest gorge, so as to allow free
passage for tbe ice wnen tbe upper
gorges are operated upon. Ihe
river between tne dam anu bridges
is covered with ice twenty inches
thick. Several experiments were
made this afternoon to blow up the
ice above the dam in the presence of
the Mayor and Chief Engineer of the
Water Works, the effect of which
was to make large opcainB in the ice,
but with no satisfactory results.
TheMavorand Chief Engineer are
of the opinion that there is no im
mediate danger, but nevertheless the
Mayor expresses his intentious of
making the matter tbe subject of a
report to the Councils, calling their
attention to tbe necessity of some
early action. The object of makiug
tbe experiments is to opea a channel
in the river from tbe breast of the
dam upward, so that tbe immense
gorges of ice which has accumulated
in the vicinity of the Falls of Wissa
bickon and Manayunk may pass
down tbe stream.
Another at empt was made above
Fairmount dam this afternoon to re
move the ice in the Schuylkill river
by blasting. Powder in bottles, about
one and a-half pounds, was inserted
in the ice at various points, and then
exploded by electricity. Six at
tempts were trade, but tbey were all
fruitles, not even cracking the ice.
The experiment was tben given up.
It is the impression that if w arm
weather continues tbere will be no
trouble resulting from ice.

Temperance.
IlAKRtSEiKii, Pa., March 4. The
State Temperance Convention met at
the hall of the Young Men's Chris
tian Association to-day. About two
hundred delegates were present.
Rev. I. C. Babcock, of Philadelphia,
was chosen permanent President. A
strong resolution was adopted de
nouncing tbe repeal of the local op
tion law by the House of Representa
tives, and reminding ibeai that a day
of reckoning will come for tbeir mal
administration on the subject, and
calling upon the Senators to regard
the will of the people on the question
of local option.
A temperance mass meeting was
held in the House of Representatives
Ibis evening. Addresses were made
by prominent members of the organi
zation.
Rrporled Hlrlkeat Irwi" fine.
It was stated yesterday that the
Penn Gas and Coal Company, at
Irwin Station, bad given notice of a
reduction jn wages from seveuty to
fifty cents per ton, and that a similar
notice had been given at the West

The men at once determined to
strike, and it is said that they are
unanimous in their opposition. There
are about one thousand men em
ployed in the several mines at that
place.
