"NEw HOUSES FOR SENAToRs.''-T
Washington correspondent of the anti
!Slauery Standard" who ought to know,
writes:
"Some curious revelations are cropping
ont about the means whereby the Russian
purchase was lobbied through. 1t was
among the amusing things in legislative
history to learn how rapidly senators
changed front on the expediency OF the
Russian purchase. 1t is estimated by
shrewd lobbyists that it took about two
millions out of the seven to secure the re-
suit. One senator, who is known to have
changed his views quite sudden y, pur-
chased a mansion here for thirty thousand
dollars Immediately after the passage OF
the treaty. He was never before credited
with so much money"
It is not likely that Russia invested her
money in this way; but some senator's 90
live in houses Of their own who did not
have, it is said, even boarding houses be-
fore they we're elected here. Such charges
from Radicals against Radicals ought to be
investigated.

The National Convention of Dis
filters

WASHINGTON, December 13.-The Ma
tional Convention of manufacturers of and
dealers in spirits is not perfectly harmoni-
Gus. Most of the delegates from the east
are under or represent those who are under
seizure. The western delegates are in
favor Of twenty-five cents tax on the gal
Ion, or a tax on the still according to its
capacity. The eastern delegates are more
interested in changes in the revenue
officers than in changes of the law.
1t is represented that against fifty distil-
leries in New York before the tax there
are now seven hundred: and it is adj
mitted that all must, in one way or an
another, evade the tax or lose money. 1t
is claimed that, outside Of facilities for
feeding stock. the western distilleries have
an advantage in the matter Of freights, but
that eastern shrewdness in evading the
tax ruins the western distillerics.

indignation and excitement, informed US
that he had been reported to be holding
secret Union meetings with Rollow, Miller,
&C., at his house, aud that he would like
to cut the heart out of the malignant fiend
who questioned his fidelity to the South
ern Confederacy. His traitorous soul pre-
tended to be indignant at the charge,
which he knew to be even then the truth"
