our words nave been needed and attended to-
Two OF the greatest evils connected with it, have
been the holding of consulatcs by foreigners in no
way interested in the welfare of the United States
and the small compensation allowed The fees
of consus under the present system are not sufii-
cient to support them in respectable manner !;
hence those offices of the government are always
connected with commerce, which occupies 30
much of their time, that they cannot devote that
attention to their official duties which is requi-
site.
On Wednesday last, Mr.. w. w. Campbell,
member of Congress from this district introduced
bill for the revision ofthe present system We
have perused an outline OF il, and we perceive it
avoids the errors mentioned above 1t provides
that none but American citizens shall be consuls
and allows an adequate remuneration for their
services.
Now that the subject is taken up, we trust that
Congress will not adjourn without first putting
this very important branch of the government on
respectable footing
