II a speech at the recent dinner in Washing
ton given TO the Hon. Thomas Cave, M. p, Seua-
tor Cameron said that after his retirement from
the War Department had not the contracts
which he made for arms been rejected on the
ground Of excess, the country would have been
spared the anxiety and the peril Of keeping the
army for so long time from going into the
field properly armed and equipped. The in
ference inevitably follows that Mr. Secretary
Stanton, in cancelling those contracts Of his
predecessor and in making new contracts, had
his own friends to provide for, and hence the
long continued cry Of All quiet on the Poto-
mac.- This lets tho cat out Of the Tag. A
good many hard things were said of Secretary
Cameron's extravagant contracts about the
time OF his retirement, but they were baga-
telles compared with the extravagances which
followed. Al he was Honest Old Abes |"
FIRST choice for the War Office, and a. he has
proved stronger in Pennsylvania even than Old

that General Simon Cameron would be good
name to put on the ticket with General Grant
for the Presidential succession.

thus put himself in direct and open conflict
with the people. We do not believe be will.
We believe that he will content himself with q
war OF words; but at the least indication OF Q
tendency to do more his impea chment and re-
moval will be matter Of course. His own
argument forces tho conclusion that it would
have been better II he had been removed
ere this-if Congress. once satisfied that
he would not enforce q law he did not
like, had put in his place man with differ
ent sense Of duty and accomplished the national
purpose in that way instead of accomplishing
1t by means tending to contempt Of the

The whiskey Frauds.

II is claimed by the whiskey dstilers that
under the present rate Of duty (two dollars q
gallon) 1t is impossible for them TO carry on
their business legitimately. Now, in Great
Britain the tax is eleven shillings and sixpence
. gallon, or more than two dollars and half
Of our money, while the cost OF manufacture Is
only two shillings and threepence. Formerly,
in the United Kingdom, the duty was very much
higher, and then Illicit distlling and other
frauds upon the revenue were extensively
prsctised. Under the present scale Of duties
these have almost entirely ceased. Now, we
should like to know why, with q lower tax
upon whiskey than that which Is found effec-
tive for revenue purposes in Great Britain, We
cannot enforce the moderate duty imposed by
Congress. Evidently the fault lies, not with
the law, but with its machinery. For this the
Treasury Department Is alone responsible,

and departure from usage; but we have not
lived enough on our law and our usages the
past four years TO make this q cause Of alarm,
and we may regard these departures as rather
inconvenient than dangerous. II will in the
future be the deepest reproach to Mr.. johnson
that he made this course necessary-that he
compelled Congress to familiarize the nation
with encroachments on constitutional usage
that might have been spared If he had readily
and in good faith executed those laws that his
veto was insufficient TO defeat Congress
showed its good faith in this matter when 1t
entrusted the President 30 fully as II did with
the execution Of the first law and the appoint
ment of the commanders. Knowing that
he was opposed to its course, that
the law was passed over his veto,
Il yet seemed TO feel an honorable
confidence that he would not carry his obstruc.
tive spirit into the line OF his duty. He dsap-
pointed that confidence, and hit upon interpre-
tstion 40 Q means to defeat the law while
seeming 10 execute Il; and now Congress Is
fully In sympathy with the nation in acting on
the assumption that the proper executive can
not safely be entrusted with the enforcement
Of this law.
From the circle surrounding the President
Il has been vaguely given out that he could
not recognise a. q law an act that did not
contemplate him a. its Executive and his
declaration quoted above Is somewhat
positive TO the same effect II remains
to be seen whether the President will
act upon the theory Of his arguments, and,
ignoring the existence OF this law, proceed to
the enforcement Of some exhumed and quite

TIE PRESIDENT The New York
Times pays the following compliment
to President Johnson:
There is an impression, which is
carefully nursed in certain quarters,
that President Johnson is shaking in
his shoes at the prospect of being
impeached. What the President
most breads, says q Boston paper,
'ls impeachment" There never was
a greater mistake. Not many days
ago, the President remarked that he
considered it a matter of much more
Importance to Congress than to him
whether he was impeached or not.
He has not the slightestapprchension
of being convicted of any misde-
meanor OF misconduct of any kind,
upon any testimony that any honest
man could deem fair and reliable;
and If he is convicted otherwise, the
odium that will follow such action
will, in his opinion, far outweigh
any punishment that can be inflicted.
President Johnson may be a very
unwise man, and may have done a
great many unwise things; but his
confidence i'll his own integrity, like
his reliance upon his own convictions
and opinions, is perfectly imprcg-
naDle.

STRICT CoSsrRUcrox.-Thc New
York Times gives US the following
good hit:
Some members of Congress are SO
sensitive about the rights granted
and secured by the constitution, that
their delicacy compels them to turn
deaf ear to the voice Of charity.
Strict constructionists of this class
object to the appropriation Of
mllllon dollars to save the Southern
people, white and black, loyalists and
dlsloyallsts, from starvation, because
they cannot find warrant for it il
the constitution. This opposition
would be absurd if it were not cruel
and lnhuman. There seems to be a
lear on the part OF these gentlemen
that the appropriation VIII not be
iaifly divided between the whites and
the negroes; but it is we'll known that
q large amount Of relief was extended
to poor white people by the Freed
mems Bureau, and certainly there
was nothing in the constitution to
prevent food being sent 70 Ireland
by Congress in Government ship
during the famine OF 1917.
