WEDNESDAY MORNING, MAR. is, 1916

TusTuE1LoUs PUBLIC ATOMS Anew Gays
,yo we noticed the fact, that the Senate Of the
1Jn;,ad States had appointed committee TO
irvsstoate charges exhibited against certain
members of the Senate in the Washington
Times; and we expressed the nope, that the
greatest latitude would be given to the editors
and proprietors of that paper, to sustain the'F
allegations by proof, if in their power so 70 40
The committee made their report on Monday
last, and the result is precisely what we anticl-
pated-thaG there is not the slightest shadow
Of testimony to sustain the charges. Corrupt
intercourse with the British Minister was I'M
nuted to Senators, and the specifications weFe
I. A dinner or entertainment at the BFtish
Minister'S, at which many Senators were Su!u
10 be present, and where corrupt conversations
in relation TO the Oregon question were sup
nosed TO have been held. ,. A meeting OF
Whig members in room at the Capitol, on the
Friday before the sailing Of the Cambria, at
which the British Minister was charged to be
present, and where it was said TO be agreed to
have vote taken, to be sent OIL to Great Bril-
tain by the return of the steamer. 3. An adj
mission by Mr.. Senator John NJ. Clayton that
bs was presezt at the British Minister'S table
where the strength of the British Oregon party,
in the Senate as it was styled, "was counted
by their noses"
Not single witness was produced who
knew any thing whatever in relation to the Of
lenses alleged in these specifications, notwith-
standing the Times had challenged inVestiga-
ton, and declared its ability to adduce the EVIL
dence necessary to sustain its statement. ).
L. Dow, the proprietor, and Fl. II. Robinson,
editor of the Times, tthe latter the writer of
the articleS,) knew nothing themselves, nor
could they produce others VINO were better in
formed; and thus, in the language OF the report,
"each of the specifications were found, upon
Investigation, to be utterly and entirely false"
This is an instance of the RIGHTEOUSNESS of
the press that has been seldom equalled, for it
appears to have been wanton and malicious
misrepresentation, designed 10 injuriously affect
the private and public regulations of Senators.
The writer of the articles could not even allege
that he had been msinformed, for he could ad-
duce no authority whatever to shew that he
had any reason to believe the statements which
he made-when it was duty imperative upon
him as an honest man, to have been prepared
to support his allegations before making them.
The Senate did right in expelling persons con-
nscted with the Times from the reporters gal
iery; and we hope the paper will receive no
further support from honorable men.
