THE PUBLIC JUDGMENT.

There is no installing the public Judgment on The
mad career of seconalism in the House Of Representa-
lives The following from the Boston Post expresses the
sentiment of the popular mind ON the extraordinary prop
ositon to withhold the supplies;
The backrepubean members Of Congress refuse vote
money to pay the army, in order that the government
troops which have cleared Kansas from illegal invaders
Mssourans and abolitionsts be Withdrawn and the
Territory given to civil war This Is the evidence Of
their regard for law and order for FREEDOM The forces
under Colonel Sumner have restored order enforced law
protected the innocent peaceaby-disposed citizendry
away armed bandt and exercised power that, by The
last accounts was manisesng its beneficial influence
the quiet and industry of the population Nearly the whole
people of the Territory were engaged IN the pursuits q
profitable employment and the prosperity howine iomlhe
cessation Of contention being manifested IN all quar-
Yet the peculiar friends of Kansas would reverse
all thisremove all competent restraint upon The lawes
and introduce anew the acrimony and deadly strife which
so lately marked III. of events the Missouri Dor

members of the House OF Representatives unite wuh them

hypocrtica demagogues who are willing 10 see the lives
Of those sacrificed whom they pretend to be friendly

writer in the National Intelgneer of yesterday makes
the following forcblc comments the movement Of
the republicans:
Messrs EpIroRs limitations have been thrown out in
House of Representatives of stopping the appropriation
bills unless certain things done in connc1on viii Kan.
sas In monarchy like Great Britain stale of things
might probably arise in which such an extreme measure
would be advisable proper but IT is hardly possible 10
conceive of contingency which would justify such
outionary step in government constituted that Of
the United States and under the system of such frequent
recurrence to the ballobox that effective and conia
tona remedy for political Encouragement or other po
cal evils.
Blu. nave those who talk 80 hppanty of defeating lt
appropriation bills reflected the consequences d
such ultra and unjustifable proceeding2 II
successfully attempted in this country it is to be hoped M
Executive whoever he may be, when it takes place will
allow the consequences to follow to the bitter end without
any attempt to check palliae them Let him pay OIL
and lay up every shp-ofwar dsband the army, stop every
public work. close every navy-yard and public armor
discontinue the purchase of provisions clothing arms and
accouemens stores and supplies OF every Kind either for
the military naval civil service, and allow the gold
accumulate in the sub-treasury. 4 aa.-a
ANY one at all acquainted with the course Of trade and
the business both commercial and financial of the nation
may form some idea of the result upon the community
without any distinction to station profession, or trade
The mere accumulation of coin in the subtreasury with
any corresponding disbursements would in less than
three months break every bank between Washington and
Easport but not before those institutions in efforts M
save themselves by rapid curailmcnts, had spread ruin
and bankruptcy throughout the financial and commercial
community Under the pressure and the general dsre

every description that is held in the country would be-
deprecated to the extent of $2000O0o0o OF $3ooOOO

and all species os both foreign and domestic productions
would suffer in like form TO greater or less extent
No men or set of men party however numeroul
who would the responsibility, could stand before
such outbreak of Indignation would follow under
such circumstances but they would be crushed out Of
