CITY RAILROADS " Corporation Proceed
ipas" for some interesting matters concerning
Railroads and Omnibusses.
We hear that some persons are fomentins
movement little short of an open riot and defiance
OF law, should the Railroad bill before the Alder
men be passed. An iskling Of this was given out
by a communication in the Globe some days since.
We DO not know who are at the bottom of this az
fair, but we trust they will manifest their opposi'
ton to the measure In an orderly and peaceful
manner. Any other course would only overthrow
their very object If no better argument can be
brought against Railroads than the stereOtyped
yelp of Monopoly" the opposition must be very
feeble. At any rate, these men will remember that
if The people decide to have Railroads why Of course
Railroads will be made. If they doubt that the
people are in favor of rails, they should at least
choose mode of feeling the public pulse more in
keeping with common courtesy. Blackguardism
and sham charges seldom convince the cool think
or. Be,hink ye, gentlemen, and let not zeal spur
| you beyond reason.

The GnIphin Business.

The House of Representatives yesterday
adopted the resolutions of the Galphin In
yestigating Committee, condemning the ORR
ginal claim as an unjust one, and explicitly
declaring the payment of the interest to have
been contrary to both law and precedent
and altogether beyond the authority Of the
Secretary Of the Treasury. Though the
Secretary of War is not named in the reso-
lutisns, they bear even more severely upon
him than upon Mr.. Meredith. This is
eyinced by the futile attempt made on Sat
urday by MIR. Toombs to append another
resolution expressly generating Mr.. Craw-
ford from blame, and by the action of the
House in connection herewith. Mr..
Toombss motion was by large majority
amended so as to condemn Mr.. Crawford,
though in moderate terms, and then by
party vote rejected, the Loco-FOcos prefer
ring to leave the original resolutions un-
changed.
The vote Of Saturday, censuring the Pre-
sident, was reconsidered and tabled, SO to
81. An amendment to Mr.. Schenck's sub
stitute, declaring that "this House decided
ly disapnroves Of, and dissents from, the
opinion given by the Attorney General, in
favor of the allowance Of interest on said
claim" was adopted by a vote of ll9 to &C,
and the substitute as amended was then re-
jected, Yeas 80, Nays l63, and the original
resolutions Of the Select Committee were
then adopted by vote Of about 2 to l.
1t can hardly be denied that this affair
has received a perfectly thorough and I'M
usually fair-spirised and impartial investl-
cation, and we do not think the country will
be disposed to deny the justice Of the con-
clusion arrived at. And there is no doubt
that whatever be the legal effect of this con-
clusion, the people at large should require
the repayment of this money. Perhaps, in
the atmosphere Of Washington, it may seem
rather verdant, or rather an obsolete idea
that anybody who has fed fat on the Treas
Nry should be expected to disgorge the lus
cious plumber, but it Is nevertheless one thai
every honest conscience must entertain, anC
every sentiment Of private honor enforce
All the parties who have shared in this spoi
are not known to the public, but at least on
is conspicuous, and will be universally look
ed to. Indeed, it is hardly possible to doub
that, under the circumstances, he will Sc
the propriety Of q prompt and complete rel
titution of the whole interest and take mel
sures accordingly.
What effest this result will have on Il
formation of the Cabinet remains to be seel
It is only natural to suppose that it cam
leave it exactly as it finds it Proprie
would seem to dictate that Cabinet Mini
Tor who. in such matter, undergoes de-
,ive rebuke from the popular branch of &
Legislature, should give way to a successc
There may, however, be reasons for a co
trary course, but they do not now occur

Mr. TRUMAN SMITH addressed the Senate at
