NEW YORK, Dec. 81, 1901
In this mornings HERALD you give very valuable
list Of those soldiers OF the Revolution who still survive
Az your motive 70 do justice to ALL and to give Is cor
rect information upon the subject as possible, /
thought would furnish you with another name for your
list Please fadd the name Of James Hunncut, Of Rich
mond, Indiana This person, together with the grand
father Of the writer David suns, enlisted in the army
t the of the Revolution and acted under
General Greene South Carolina during the entire war
Both being Quakers II believe they were dealt with by
that church for their delinquency, but on the termna
ton Of the war (the brethren having in the meantime
become more pariotc) they raternized with quite
cordially James Hunnicut IL now, think, about ninety
six yesrs DID, He still retains his faculties, and remem
bers distinctly all the principal incidents connected with
his battles and retreats He was never on the pension
list nor never made any effort for that purpose TWO
DAYS ago the veteran alive, but as he sick and
sinking rapidly is quite probable that at this moment
he may have Joined that gallant band who have gone

privilege In the case of members OF Cong ess
is all right. But the government ought to be
also deprived Of it, and be made to nav for
helr correspondenceiike every one else Con-
gfefs vo,,ps for an appropriation to cover this
necessary expense. Then no newspapers
should be sent free by mail to other newspaper
proprietors, nor sen. free to subscribers in the
counties in which they a..e published Why
should merchants and others have to pay for
the expense incurred in carrying by mail
worthless papers oil over the country? 1t is by
these grievous and intolerable burthens that
the mails are oppressed and the Post Office De-
partment embarrassed, as it now finds itself,
with contractors left unpaid, while members of
Congress are amusing themselves in foolish
Debates like Nero, who fddled while Rome
was burning. II the Department were only
relieved from the dead weight with which 1t is
overloaded there would be no contractors with
out their pay, and the Post Office would be-
come selfsustaining institution. In England
the cost is not more than half the income;
here the cost Is nearly double the revenue.
This ought not to be, and need not be, if Con.
gress will only do its duty. We hope, there
fore, that the bill In the Senate will be
amended accordingly.

A SOUTHERN D0UGHFACE.-The black repub-
lican journals at the North made a great fuss
about the publication of anti-slavery speeches
and documents In the HERALD, and endeavored
to prevent us from circulating such publications
as the speeches Of Phillips, Cheever and
Beecher, and the letters of Wright; but they
could not succeed, for we know how to transact
our own business too we'll. These journals
were afraid that the exposure of such atrocious
sentiments would cut the platform from under
their feet when they saw the uprising of the con-
sentative element which their publication Gre
ated; but we are determined to let the South
and the North, and the whole world, know the
conspiracies which are concocted by these
fanatics against the peace of Union. If it
were not for the HERALD tr :outh would not
have known anything about Helpers book
until 1t was too late; and if we did not publish
the harangues and doings of the abolitionists,
the South would never know what intrigues
and conspiracies were going on at the North
against Its interests and safety. Had not John
Brown kept his scheme secret, we would have
published that too, and thus saved the country
from the disaster and disgrace of the Harper's
Ferry raid. Only for the HERALD publication
of these things people at the South might ac-
cept the assurance of Northern Senators that
there was no sympathy for John Brown at the
North; but the HERALD has laid before them
the evidence that such is not the fact
We are not surprised that republican journals
should object to our ventilating their plans and
schemes; but we confess it is strange to see q
Southern paper like the Richmond Dispatch en-
dorsing the views Of the New York Times, 7ri-
bune and other anti-slavery journals as to the
improperly Of publishing the proceedings and
speeches and conspiracies Of the Northern agi-
tators, which may serve as a wholesome warn
ing to the South, from which itmay be prepared
to protect itself against. its enemies. We can
find no better epithet for this Richmond paper,
which sustains the narrow opinions of North
ern abolition journals, than Southern dough-
face.

EXTENSIVE FRAUDS BY Cusrox HOUSE Off
Numerous well sustained affldavits have
been placed in our hands with regard to the
conduct Of immediate, confidential subordi-
mates of certain federal officers, which develope
an unparalleled degree of corruption in the
examination of passengers and their effects.
The signers of these papers testify to robbie
ries of their property, upon their persons, and
to purloining of their goods in the public store,
to the amount Of many thousands of dollars.
Valuable diamonds, emeralds, pearls and
other jewelry; watches, laces, shawls, con-
fectionery, &c.. have been ruthlessly torn
away from their owners; and even after their
restoration has been ordered, valuable articles
have been found missing, and the invoices mu-
tilated in order to make the goods correspond

1t is this practical Development this unan-
ticipated and prodigious vitality and growth,
that has produced tho great change in the
Southern sentiment in regard to slavery, and
which is now working even greater changes in
the opinions held by other communities re-
garding it Had the founders of our empire
lived to witness the present state Of things, the
same cause would have worked change in
their philosophic views. They were practical
men. They knew, and acknowledged in every
act, that permanent government cannot be
founded on principles which actively violate
the great existing interests Of men. They acted
continually on the conviction that political and
social forms must be moulded and adapted to
living interests of the community, and hence
the constitution guaranteed protection to the
slave institutions of all the States Under
these impulses they formed the constitution in
accordance with the practical necessities of the
country at that time, and not in accordance
which the philosophic theories which they en-
tertained. The same motives would guide
them were they alive to-day, and they should
guide us in continuing the construction of the
great empire they founded. Political theories
must adapt themselves to the interests Of the
community, for these can never be successfully
shaped and moulded by forms Of government.
If the attempt is made, the growth, If there is
growth at all, will be cramped and unnatural.
THE FRAMING PRIvnEGE.-We perceive that
a bill has been introduced into the United
States Senate to abolish the ranking privilege.
This is all right, but it does not go far enough.
1t is eminently proper that members Of Congress
should pay their postage like other citizens,
instead of being permitted, as they are now,
to food the country with their trashy speeches
at the public expense, and weigh down the
mails with documents which nobody reads, and
| even with their dirty linen sent home to bt
| washed and returned to them by the same ne
dunn. To put an end to this much abusci
