one OF the longest sessions to have ferreted
out abuses, If any existed, and we would
ask, in what single expenditure have any
been found F.? The Senale, War, Treasury,
departments, have been visited day after
day, for months-every item in the eApen-
Gnures of each of them, even so minut
an obj ect as pen to write with, have bee
Scru Inized-and what is The consequence,
of this ordeal! The agents Of the govern
ment have been found to have faithfully
discharged the dury confded to them, with
as strict economy as the public service
would admit.
A fair opportunity offered on the death
Of Gen. Brown to abolish the Office and
expenses of Maj. General--How was it
improved 1.-The maority--yes, those
who were so vocferous for retrenchment,
could have saved in this particular several
thousand dollars, and they refused to do it.
What better evidence could be desired
that the noise is purely for electiOneeri"g
purposes
The idea is preposterous, that as rigid
an economist as Mr.. Adams, man whose
habits of life and appearance in his daily
perambulationS about Washington, maui
tests as much plainness as BELTS any gentle
man, would encourage or countenance ex-
pendtures Of the public money. We
hesitate not to express our belief, the
electioneering slang of the day to the con-
rary notwihs anding, that Mr.. Adams
will lose nothing in public estimation as an
economical President, by comparison
with any who have proceeded him, or may
come after him.
In place of reform, we find from the
appropriations of public money the last
session, that the expenses of Congress are
greater than at any other period, and the
drafts on the treasury are millions beyond
the Srcretarv'> eStim ,tion. If retrench-
men' be 50 all important, members of Com
greSs should begin we.l their own wages
in place of eight dollars reduce their allow
ance to four, and the example we think,
would be salutary.
Fair dealing in canvassing for office, as
in every thing else, is most commemorate.
