PROSECUTION FOR LIBsL.-The S. Louis
RpaLlican, for the last year OF more, has
used good deal of p-etty strong language in
reference to. = Gel. Babcock, ~ho appears to
be quite leader and favoritc among the
radical politicians OF that state. The charges
q the Republican against this creature have
been OF So serioEs natIre that he has IT
length felt himself compelled to commence a
prosecution cgaiust the Republican for libel
Whereupon the Republican, lest he should be
at loss to find the proper li5eIlous words to
PIT in his indictment, furnishes hun with a
few, as follows
We do mos. freely and fully acknowledge
that we have declared him an accessory to
murder, the leader ola gang of coun;erieiters,
an associate OF horse thieves, hypocrite, liar,
libeler and scouudrel. We wish now to take
! it all back, and r-it.rate the charges With
double and triple emphasis. The heart OF
that ran Is black with crime. Upan his
hands Is tie stain OF innocent b'ool. He has
robbie the widow and the fatherless. In his
brutal breast there Is remnant of mercy
nor o. innocence. He has Inspired for the
overthrow Of the pure and guieless. He has
EHecSea the righteousness of Heaven by us
ing the g;.rb Of Gods ministers as a cloak for
his nefarious purposes.
Oar deciled opinion is that this man Bah
cooke viii not get much blacl. mail or hush
money out of The Republican, AMI if he goes
on with his suit, the Rev. sconHsl-el, in al
likelihood, will be badly worsted.

ExPLANArIoY.-Ih reference to the con.
troversy between our friend HoDGsoS fCIod-
hopperI and the Republican, it is perhaps
proper that we should say, that the commu.
nication in reference to County Fairs, pub.
lished in the Free Trader several weeks ago,
was handed to us by Mr.. Hodgson. and we
agreed o looking ii over, to publish it.
without knowing at the time that it had been
offered to the Republican and refused. The
Explanation" of Mr. II. was brought in
subsequently. Except in the first para graph,
however, We do not remember having chang.
ed single word in it, and we gave it to the
composhor with the usual direction in all
such cases, to correct the punctuation and
spelling. We do this in all cases. Indeed,
as all publishers know, not one communiCa>
ton in 500 offered US, ever comes to the
printer ID Ct condition to be set up oerbafim
ct literalI a,. The compositor has made the
same cor rections i'll the following as a matter
of course, but ha. not changed a WORT,

CONGRESS-.

The House has spent large part of the
past week on the new tax bill. Among the
amendments made we note the following :
The section authorizing gas companies to
collect the revenue tax imposed upon them
from consumers was stricken cut, and AL
reapers, mowers and threshing machines
were exempted from taxation. 1t was de~
cidsd, in the discussion. of the bill, to leave
the tax on incomes as II now stands, with .
tax of per cent. Oh incomes up to 5000;
and 10 per cent. on the excess over that
amount, the limit of the first $500 being e1-
tended to Sl,000. Another amendment was
adopted, providing that lists of incomes
shall not be published or furnished for pub
LEGATION, but thai they shal.. lie open to public
inspection in the Office of the Collector.
The House, on TIE 22d, took up and pass.
ed the ue;v bankrupt bill. 1t provides tina,
ban:rupts to tie amount of $500 may be
discharged, after surrendering al! property to
assgnees, appointed by the creditors, and a
sale and ratable distribution of the pro ceeds
Creditors TO the amount of $3.50 may force
dishonest debtors into bankruptcy, and com-
pei the sale Of property to pay debts rasably
to creditors. The provisions against fraud
and concealment Of property are very s!rln-
gent. The machinery Of the Ia" is to be

SECRETARY SEWARD SPEECH-Secretary
Seward, whose yi.i, to Auburn was daily an
nouncei a week ago, made another speech
to his friends on the 22d inst, explaining
aud defe nding the Presidents policy. The
speech is rather cunning than able. It's
object "a TO couciiatc the republican party to
the support of the President, and 10 coax
and seduce rather than to drive them into
lesertion of the radicals. Accordingly, Mr..
Seward begins his speech Ly abusing the
democrats, applying to them the threadbare
epithets of copperheads, secession SYM
pathissrs,' &C., and then makes long argu-
ment to show that there is no mportan
point Of difference between the President and
Congress-. Yet as 20 the Presidents 'policy'
he holds reconciliation as the one thing
ncw needed. not reconstruction" He closes
! By taking the same hopeful view Of affairs
which always characterize5 his speeches.
