IHUHDAf' reUrudIy II, IoJ0
We lay aside our report of yesterdays proceedings in
the House until next issue, in order to modae
the pressure upon columns We have TO say, how
ever, that after reconsidering the vote by which a
joint resolution, providing a special clerk for the
Supreme Court, was yesterday passed, and laying
the proposition on the table, the House went into
Committee Of the Whole, and, on 90 doing, storm OF
confusion arose. point Of order mooted by DIR.
p. King, to which, after il was.overuled by the Chair
that gentleman insisted upon speaking, the House de-
cning hear him. At the request OF the chairman, Mr.
Boyd, his explanation at length heard and then the
decision was sustained by the House
Mr. billiard next addressed the Chair, concluding his
speech upon the slavery question: commenced when the
committee was last in session. Mr.. III. was followed
by Mr.. Fitch, whose speech the subject, like
that preceding it, was marked by much ability. Both
gentlemen were very aentvey listened 10 by the CON-

trenchment in the required by the Secretary be
made II can be made in the civil list. in the military
establishment and in the navy. Mr. Meredith demands
Ga $50 for the civil list for 1880 ISL Mr. Walker
expended in is45 only $500 2o7 under that head Mr.
Meredith demands Sl5,3 $50 for the military establish
ment Mr. Walker. in 1915, expended only S9.o3saos
under the same head Mr. Meredith demands 81 1853 29
for the naval establishment Mr. Walker expended but
90 PAS $3.50 in ls45, under the same head.
Now, who will not say that millions upon millions can
be saved from Mr. Meredihs estimates under all these
general heads OF expenditure' Why should nearly
80 900 900 be expended for the military establishment &C.,
in s5O-5l more than there expended in ls45 And
why should the naval establishment 80 100000
more than in 1882 And why the increase in
the civil ists Let the administration and its organ
swer these questions
We repeat, we trust the Committee Of Ways and
Means and the opposition in Congress will not be driven
from their purpose of applying stern and rigid retrench-
men in the expenditure Of the peoples money And il
know the spirit OF the present Congress, do not
believe il will submit to the bullying and the insolent
abuse to which they subjected from the Executive
and the cabinet through its pensioned organ. Let the
issue be made with the administration, which it appar-
emily desires il the Of its organ any criterion Of
its wishes Let the democratic party meet the cabinet

ofthe Secretary Of the Treasury. the cabinet through its
organs city, announced deficit Of about 6
probable to during the fiscal year Of lsoo5l
which il attributed to the Mexican war. When Mr.
Merediths report appeared. il became as apparent
the light at MONDAY that there deficit and would
be none, in the treasury under prudent and economical
administration OF the fiscal affairs Of the government but
that. If deficit did occur il would be produced, not by
the Mexican war, but by profgate expenditure Of the
peoples money by the administration itself This fact
fully disclosed by the estimates Of the Secretary Of
the Treasury, which came up TO the war sxpend
lures Of is4s, although the country is in state OF
peace The following the amount Of his estimates
for the expenditures of the government during the fiscal
year of 1s50-'5l
Civil list, including miscellaneous. internal inn
provements, &c. Sl4OO8 $50
Military establishment. including Qualifications,
ordnance, arming the militia, Indian de-
partment, and pensions l1.3is,b5s
Naval establishment 1885, 29
Interest pablo debt odemp stock 1895 $50
Total ga .Osl
Thus, in period of profound peace, the Secretary Of
the Treasury demands from Congress the enormous
Of forty four million nine hundred and ninefy-sir thou
sand and nineyoe dollars for the expenses Of the gov
eminent during the fiscal year Of ls5o5l In ls4s, the
last year OF the with Mexico, the whole amount Of
the expenditures Of the government $42 1910,
about 1o millions less than the demanded for the next
fiscal year by Mr. Meredith. And in 1885, the year pre-.
cedng the the expenditures Of the government were
as follows:
Civil ls'. &c s56os,2o7
Military establishment, &c. $685. POS
Naval establishment 622s $50
Toal S2i $780,
Thusit appears that Mr. Meredith calls for sag $780,
o42 for the ensuing fiscal year than expended
in ls45, or more than double the sum expended in the lat
ter year.
But Mr.. Meredith is entitled to large credits, which
will considerably reduce this seeming disparity, and yet
leave large balance against him, comparing the expend
itures Of ls45 with the sum he wants to expend in
s5o5i. There items Of expenditure to be borne by
the treasury in ls50-5l, which were not chargeable
upon il in is45 In order to dc perfect justice him
and the administration, will state the as favora
bly, as possible for him:
Mr. Meredith wants the aggregate sum to expend in
lS50-5l Of S44 996 COL
Aggregate sum expended in lsa5-he first
year Of Mr. Folks administration II 0.0&9
Apparent balance against Mr. Meredith of s2s
But Mr.. Meredith is entitled to the follow
ing credits, which were not chageabeupon
the treasury in 1s45. viz:
Interest ON the national debt Ss,7a2.95l
Indemnify TO Mexico S,S60OO0

Now with these staring in the face, how IL be
said that in all contracts have been made with the
lowest bidder
From what have stated above, IL will readi be
seen by sound thinking garing fraud has been
committed, and much Of the government money unlawful
quandered away that otherwise cond have been saved
II this transaction had been conducted wi the least regard
honesty and justice; and all this too by paid servant
Of tue government, whose pride should be In ali 10
Becoming the dignity OF his Office and the agent Of
an honest and confdng people.
And both hsusss OF Congress beset day after

that the Woodworking mechanic, in all his dealings
