mR. DOUGLAS AND THE REPUBLICANS.

A friend from Illinois, writing to rs in a
very liberal spirit, questions the wisdom of an
editorial in the Era, recommending the Re-
pubicans of Illinois to support Mr.. Douglas
for Senator. We have never written any such
editorial. During our absence, the last two or
three weeks, something of the kind may have
appeared in the Era, but we doubt it. 1t is
not for Us to advise our friends of Illinois in 3
question which involves so many considerations
of special importance to themselves, and of
which they can judge better u we can.
The position taken by Mr.. Douglas in rela-
ton to the Lecompton Constitution, and the
People of Kansas, was just and honorable; and
he has maintained it consistently, bravely, and
with great ability. For the time, certainly, it
has arrayed him against the Administration,
separated him from the great body Of his party
in Congress, and led him into cooperation with
the Republican members. That he will adhere
stesdfastly to his position, we have never
doubted; but how it may affect his future
course, or political relations, he will decide for
himself.
Meantime we shall not claim him as con-
vert TO Republicsnism, or representative Of
its principles nor shall we seek, by unfriendly
references to the Past, TO countersct the real
service he is doing at present. Let him cast
out devils, no matter though his form of exor.
cism may be rather novel.

WASHINGTON. D. c..
THURSDAY, APRIL 2s, 1858.

PRINTING REFoRxs.-Some days ago, Mr..
Taylor, from the Committee on Printing, made
report, presenting most startling view of the
abuses Of printing under the present system,
1.-THE election of Public Printer by each
House, and at the same time reported bill
providing for the establishment of Govern
ment Bureau of Printing. The minority of the
Committee, through Mr.. Nichols, reported in
favor of the system of Printing By contract.
We may have something to say upon the sub.
iect hereafter. As at present advised, We in.
cline to the project of Government Bureau,
and we are quite sure, could the subject b.
considered entirely upon its merits, apart from
all party considerations, such plan would find
favor

ANOTHER DEMAND FOR MONEY.

The Administration is again in trouble, not
withstanding the supply of Treasury notes it
obtained some months since. In reply to a
rumor in the Lntelligencer, that the President
has determined to ask Congress to authorize
new loan of thirty millions, and to fund the
twenty millions already Issued, the Union of
the 9th, has a dissertation on the hard times,
diminished revenue, &c. 1t is very sure that
the rumor is not exactly well founded, but it
makes admissions enough to show that there is
too much truth in it. After presenting rather
gloomy picture of the revenue, it claims that
1t is now increasing, and viii continue hence
forth to increase, till i. reach its usual standard,
and adds:
The simple question with the Executive,
Therefore, is, whether they will rely upon this
promised and probable increase of the reve-
Dues, for the funds required for the ordinary
expenses of Government, and for eompletirg
the heavy appropriations for various purposes
which were made by the last Congress; or,
whether they will fortify themselves against q
possible continuation of parslyzed business
and restricted receipts, by obtaining authority
from Congress in advance, if the contingency
of needing them should arise, to issue'Tressury
notes over and above the amount now author
lied, in payment of demands upon the Govern
ment prior TO the 3lst of December next"
The Secretary of the Treasury, it says, might
be quite confident Of a sufficient increase of
the revenue, and yet not be willing 10 risk it.
He has accordingly made call upon his col
leagues of the Cabinet, to know what will be
their probable drafts upon him for the next two
quarters The responses are not yet made.
When made, he will then be able to say whether
be will depend on the revenue, or ask new sup
plies from Congress.
Such is the statement of the Union, and it
Is clearly intended to prepare the Public fer
another demand for Treasury notes. We hope
that, if made, il will not be granted. If money
must be raised, let the Administration take the
responsibility of recommending a loan, and not
shield itself by paying its debts with paper
money
