'Mr. Dawos on "Old Thnd." Mr. Thaddcus Stevens, of Pennsylvania, occupies tho high and responsible position of Chairman of the committco of ynys and Moans in tho national House of Representatives- a position whieh should conftituto its possessor guardian of the publio Treas ury. It appears that one Simon Stavcns, a uophew of Thaddeus, f,obtaincd a very largo and a very fat contract from Gcnoral Fremont for supplying, tho Government with arms, whereby he expected to realize tho snug little sum of $00,000. Tho Com mittee on Contracts got wind of this trans action nnd exposed it. Tho unelo of Simon who had before regarded tho labors of tho Committeo with indifl'erenco, if not with positive favor, changed his opinion as soon as it struck so near him, and embra cing an occasion when the Commttto were absent from tho IIouso, denoucod it as a scandal-hunting and lying Committee Mr. Dawes replies to "Old Thad" in tho following words : "Now I wish to call tho attention of tho House distinctly to tho motives which prompted tho attack of Monday last. When the Houso and tho country come to know, ns tho Committeo knows, what promted this attack, they will appreciate it quito as well as tho Committeo encoun tered no snoh opposition from thcgenleman from Pennsylvania, the ohairman of tho Committco of Ways and Means, in tho early stages of their investigation. It was only when tho Committee in tlo way of its duty, camo to throw itself between the Treasury of tho United States and a pri vate speculation in whioh ono Simon Ste vens was interested, nnd through which 500,000 was to bo taken out of tho Troas ury of tho United States, without a dollar of consideration, in the simplo salo and repurchase of five thousand arms by the United States, that tho Committeo encoun tered tho opposition of the chairman of the Committco of Ways and Means. It first manifested itself in delaying the appropri ation to pay the expenses of the Committeo, and it then brought out a speech in the Houso ridiculing the Committee and tho Committee's efforts to rescue the Treasury from tho harpies that hung around and hovered ovor it. And hbt of all, culmi nated in an attack last Monday on the integrity and oharaeter of tho Committee, and that, too, aftor tho gentleman from Pennsylvania had been duly notified that cvory mcmbtrof the Committco was absont and could not reply. Tho amendment offcrod by him to tho second resolution looks to tho same end." Tho Fearful Indictment. Mr. Dawes, of Massachusetts, in his speech in tho House of Representatives on Friday last, in defence of tho Committee on Contracts against tho imputation of tho corruptionists uttered theso words : "Tho gentleman must romembor that in' tho first year of a Ropublioan Administra tion, whioh oamo into power upon profess ions of reform and retrenchment, there is indubitablo ovidoneo abroad in tho land that somebody has plundered tho publio Tronsury, well nigh in that single year as much as tho cntiro current yearly oxpensos ot tho government during tho Administra tion whioh tho pcoplo hurled from power becauso of its corruption." ' During tho last year of Mr. Buohanan's Administration, which was denounced by tho Republicans as unparallolcdd ik' its corruption, tho entire expenses of tho Gov- ernmentamoutcd to the sum of 502,000,000; and now Mr. Dawes, a leading Ropublioan j member of Congress from Massachusetts, rnllH 115 with fchnmn nnrl toinrt.finrtf .nn il,fl tells us with sharao and mortification that1, , , . , , . r . .

And this monoy, I market of Europe all show o rooklcsa bo it remembered, was not abstracted from !BJBtCm of cxtrnvaganoo nnd jobbing, and an overflowing Treasury, but was borrowed ' wont 0f foresight and .administrative abili- at a high rato of interest for tho pupose of sustaining the Uovernmcnt against its armed enemies, and must eventually bo reimbursed by taxation upon tho proporty and industry of tho country.

I The sago Lochiel is, just now, in a 'peek of troubles.' A few days ago, as lio was' at the instauco of Mr- Pierce Butler, a ,ctto ctto. This proceeding, it is said , disgust-1 ed exceedingly the chaste nnd pure-minded patriot who was about to "leave his coun. t try for his country's good." But, scarcely had bai the tirv with the Ex Seoretarv in rccard to "a do- falcatiou in one of tho Departments amoun - ting to millions." This was adding n0. publican "injury.

But worse than all this moro annoying than Butler's writ moro unkind than Chase's "consultation" more dreadful than all his visions of Wall's pistols aud bludgeons Executive Document No. 07 appears upon tho scene and confronts tho harrcssod Minister with its army of ugly figures and startling rev elations. The ourtain is lifted and the American people obtain a glimpse into the Augean Stables of tho Federal Govern ment. Thero stands Simon Cameron, not as tho faithful officer, not as tho true and trusty functionary of a pcoplo threatened with all tho impending horrors of the bloodiest anarchy the world eror l:n6w, but as the selfish, treason-helping SPEC ULATOR, tho partner in corrupt and Government-ruining contracts, tho chief spoilsman of all tho hungry jaokalla that hang upon tho skirts of a bravo nnd devo ted army. And to our vision Cameron has always appeared in this shape. Wo needed not the assistance of light afforded by Document No. 07, to enable us to be hold him in his true colors. Nor was tho President deceived in his man when ho selected him as his Minister of War. Well did Mr. Lincoln know tho character of tho adviser ho had chosen. Well did he remember tho Winnebago frauds with which Cameron was notoriously connected. Well did ho rceollcot tho moans by whioh Cameron was made U. S. Senator. But little cared our model Executive, "Honest Old Abo," for all that. His administra tion could not afford to lose Cameron's support, and to secure it, this hoary-hcad-ed incarnation of political knavory must havo a seat in tho Cabinet ! Parasites may flattor and expectant office-hunters may sing hosanuas to tho President, but wc say to him, as will tho people say ero long, and that, too, in tones of thunder : Mr. Lincoln, you not only struck a fatal blow at tho wolfaio of our country, but you did violence to our own conscience, when you elevated Simon Cameron to offioo 1 In conclusion we quote tho following from tho the Philadelphia Inquirer, of last Friday : "A startling exposition of tho misman agement of the WarDopartmcnt uuder cx-Sccrctary Cameron and Assistant Sec retary Scott is furnished by executive doc ument, No. 07, recently printed by the Houso of Representatives. It appears by this, that theso two functionaries were bus ily engaged during last summer and fall making contracts for muskets nnd other small arms, until tho aggregate of their operations summed up ono million, nine hundred and seventy-six thousand two hundred and forty muskets, rifles and car bines, 6cventy-two thousaud fonr hundred and forty pistols, and ono hundred and foriy-two thousand five hundred swords; for which they obliged tho Treasury to pay the trifling ainoust of 10,1M,GU5.
