The Votes Of Censure.

The Washington correspondent Of the
Philadelphia North Amerie0n. says:
"The vote of censure yesterday, unon
the President and Secretary Of the Navy,
by The House OF Representatives, is the
sternest rebuke ever administered during
our whole history. 1t was not vote OF
no confidence, such as is familiar in the
British Parliaments, but positive, unuual-
flied and overwhelming condemnation,
conceived in the strongest terms, and af.
fec ing the official honor and integrity OF
both parties implicated. The resolutions
declare that the Secretary OF The Navy
made contracts 'for live oak timber, in vi
olaiion OF law and in an improper manner,
injurious ,o'the public service. That the
distribution Of patronage in the Navy
Yards among members OF Congress was
corrupting in its influence and that the
President and Secretary Of the Navy, BY
awarding contracts 10 operate on pending
elections, set n dangerous example, dc.
serving The rtpi ooi of the House.
These resolutions were passed by vote
OF nearly two 10 one. and by southern as
well'as northern representatives. Many
Democrats solicited pairs. in order to es
cnPe The record of an approving vote, and
few went directly against The Admins
lra,l"n. Men Of all parties are recorded
in the sffiraative, Democrats, Republicans
and Americans. making up an nggregat.
OF character and worth such as the House
has rarely exhibited before. No membe,
OF the British Ministry would remain an
hour in office if the House of Commons
should express emphatic disagreement
WIN Its policy. But il his integrity should
be impe"ched by n solemn expression
such as Was given last night he would be
apt 10 hide his head in shame or demand
an inquiry by which his innocence nigh,
be established it he felt himself wronyrd
Neither OF these alternatives will be
"dop ed here. The attractions OF offic,
are superior 10 any sentimental ideas o
public duty"
