second reading Of the rural police bill, on which it

establish generally throughout the country system

districts of Ireland and analogous that established
in our own city and London. Mr. Ingram, the pro-
prietor of The illustrated Ne,cs newspaper has been

Commons by Mr.. Cowan, the celebrated paper
manufacturer, member for Edinburgh, and Sir Jo-
seph Paxton, formerly gardener to the Duke of
Devonshire and architect Of the Crystal Palace,
and now member for Coventry. Mr. Mingam's re-
turn is another triumph Of labor and democracy.
The Coroner's inquest upon the remains of the late

cay or intimate that there is nobody in the Senate
who has any conscience in public expenditures, for
We know there are men who are prudent and con-
scienous, though we mnst say they are rare in that
body. Things are put through there at times and
often. with looseness shocking to the initiated
Uncle Sans strong box stanes in the corner, aud
every clever or roguish or perinacious fellow who
comes along aching badly to thrust his arm into it,
coptriyes to find some clever or roguish pertina
cious brother in the Senate to LIT the lid for
his benefit under the guise Of some patriotic
consideration or other While the Senate is in
session, but most particularly at its annual close
the hinges of that strong box never get rusty.
Bags, boxes, barrels and hogsheads are filled from
it with lusty eagerness. The daily drain is not
watched, and it is only when some long train filed
with treasure passes under the awakened vision Of
Senators, like this million and quarter Of dollars
for example, expended for printing one book that
nobody has ever seen except in the haunts of uIu-
ry; it is only on such occasions that any observa-
tion of the constant depicting process takes place
For this extravagance for this Indifference, for this
negligence, some remedy is demanded.
We are on the high road so long trod by Eu'
ropean Governments, spending lavishly and with
out stint, encouraging prodigality and profuseness
in every branch of expenditure, and leading ult-
mately to the same results-enormous national
debts and corresponding taxation to support them.
The remedy to be found, and the only remedy of
which the case admits, is the election of honest
public servants. 1t is not men Of smartness, not
men of political skill. not men of eloquence, not
luent-talkers, that are needed in Congress, but
men of business capacity and rigid integrity.
These, and these only are the salt that is to save
our institutions and Government.
