The radicals are trying to keep Mr.. Thorn
as. the newly-elected senator from Maryland,
ont of his seat because he resigned his posi-
ton in MIR. Buchanan cabinet when 1t was
nroposed to send an armed force to Charles
ton. and. in resigniDg, assigned the following
reason :
at has not been in my power, as y,u are
aware, to agree with you and majority Vi
vonr constitutional adviers in the measures
which have been adopted in reference to the
nrasent condition of things in South Caroll-
pa nor do / think it all probable that L
shall he able to concur in the views winch
Won entertain, so far as | understand them,
touching the authority under existing laws,
to enforce the collection OF customs at TIE

Mr.. Thomas was not alone in this posi-
ton. The Chicago Tribune, the New York
Tribune, the Cincinnati Gazette, and a large
number of the leading republican newspa
pers and orators, held to the same doctrine
and advocated letting the south depart II
paece. 'Dirty-Work" Logan, of this state
wrote in letter from Washington "Ihere
no use OI our tstLhlHS aooos NoSA>ioAA ~
make the states come back. War. would on
" be the everlasting overthrow OF our inst
tutions, resulting only in despotism" Loga
has worked faithfully to prove the correc
ness Of his judgement. If he did not predit
what he wished to come to pass,his course
politician has been libel on ms purpose
And if it is right to exclude Senator Ihom'
it is right to exclude Logan, Butler, and IL
whole tribe of republican secessionists.
Ben Wade said, in the senate, see 20
oressional Globe, Saith congress, page 70 ::
"You cannot forcibly hold men in the Unio
for the attempt to do so, it seems to me, won
subvert the first principles OF the government u
der which we live"
If Thomas is excluded then Wade, Loga

ded.

JeG. Davis.

In the United States senate, on the 2lst
instant, Mr. Wilson, of Massachusetts, pre-
sented the following concurrent resolution
which was ordered to be printed:
WHEREAS, Jefferson Davis stands charged with
the henious crime of conspiracy to murder the late
Abraham Lincoln, and is also indicted for hi igf
treason, and has persistently declared his inno
cence, and has demanded speedy public trial
therefore
a2esolred, That longer confinement of the sait
jeff Davis, without a trial, or arraignment ana
specific time for trials not in accordance with tn
demands of Justice Spirit of our laws and require
nents of the constitution, and that in common
justice, sound public policy, national honor, w
unite in recommending that the said Jefferson

be released from confinement on bail or on h,
own recognizance.

There is a good deal of good and prohta-
ble food for reflection to be found in the list
of appropriations made by the late radical
Illinois legislature. For instance, there are
two lists of appropriations, one for genera.
the other for special purposes. There Is
more hidden, under these special appropria-
tions. than meets the eve at a casual glance.
Let us take an example. Under the head
of general appropriations there is given to
the "adiutant general and office" $l8,20O.
This is a pretty round sum, one would think,
for such an officer to consume. But wait,
dear reader, until you look into the items of
Especial appropriations" You will there
find that in addition to the. eighteen thous.
and two hundred dollars, there is bestowed
upon the "adiutant generals report, the
sum of $56,0O0 So we have, tor the adJu,
tanf generals office, the aggregate sum OF
$74,2e0. Does any man of sense, within
the limits of the state Of Illinois, believe that
the sum of seventy.four thousand two hun
dred dollars could be expended in the eco
nomieal administration of the adiutant gen
erals office? Ofcourse not. But what Is
this special appropriation of fifty-six thous.
and dollars for? Why, the adjutant general
like the superintendent of public instruction,
has made a book, which is called, in the ap
preparation, a report and the Legislature
has given the said adiutant general 6fty.sis
thousand dollars for his book; and thu
another partisan favorite is rewarded Veri
ly, book-making is profitable, busines
when undertaken by the radical state officer
of Illinois. This is specimen of what radi
calls call progress .h-Qaincy Herald. m

Now therefore, in compliance with the require

the amended charter of the city of Rock Island,
notice is hereby given to the several owners OF the

appropriate the lands necessary for the opening
OF the aforesaid street above mentioned, and
that they will, at the city council room, on the

A bill is before the legislature of Louis
lana to license gambling houses; the price
of license to be $4,000 per annum. The
bill is novel in several respects. 1t "requir
es each gambling room to be on the ground

one or more large windows to the room, 81

The list of appropriations made by she
radical Legislature of Illinois, which appear
ed in our columns ON the 18th inst, contains
a good many items worthy of examination.
For instance, under the head of general ap-
preparations is an item which reads, super
intendent of public instruction 1880. =
How it is that the Office of superintendent OF
public instruction should consume the sum
of thirteen thousand eight hundred dollars
we cannot tell, nor do we know for what spe-
ciic purposes so large a sum is consumed,
over and above the salary of the officer
But this is not ALL Under the head of 'spe-
cial appropriations" We find there is still an
other appropriation for this officer, of the
sum of $l5,000. Thus we have, IN all, the
the sum of $2s, 500 bestowed upon the ONCE
of superintendent of public instruction, tho
divided into two different items OF appropria,
tion. Now for what purpose was this speciai
appropriation of fifteen thousand dollars
made ? Some of the newspapers faceuously
answer that this sum was given, by Parti-
san legislature, to purchase Bateman's drops,
in allusion to the fact that Bateman, the su'
perintendeut, is doctor of medicine. but
while this is metaphorical Illustration OF a
real fact, the fact itself is, as we understand,
that Bateman has prepared book, ana tnls
fifteen thousand dollars and part OF the
thirteen thousand eight hundred dollars, are
appropriated by the legislature to purchase
his book. We have heard it said, we know
not with what truth, that Mr.. Superintendent
Bateman would make about twenty Thousand
dollars out of this transaction. And suci
was the mode adopted by a partizan legisla
ture, to reward partizan favorite. 1t wa
thought the popular cry of education ecu
cation would cover up all this extravaganza
and partizan depravity, and stifie any voice
which should be raised in remonstrance.-

4 RADICAL FREE FIGHT In.
CONGRESS-.
Butler Gets BADLY Damaged.

:
On Thursday the 2lst, inst, the honse'
went into COMMITTEES of the whole, MI Blame
of the senate ioint resolutions approprlating
a 0on nm Eor the relief of the destitute peo-
Me of the south. All general debate being
pp-darod pd closed. in a few moments Messrs.
Rents and Bingham withdrew their pend
inp amendments.
Mr. Bingham offered an amendment to
str;Le out of the Joint resolution the words
aappropriating $l,000,000,' and inserting
these words: "and to that end the secretary
of war is hereby authorized and directed,
through the commissioner of the treedmen's
bureau, to apply so much as ne may deem
necessary for the purposes aforesaid, OF tne
unexpended monies heretofore provided tt
supply freedmen andrefugees with provislon'
or rations."
A debate sprang up, followed by a scene
remarkable for its personalities: Ben. But
iler first took the floor on the bill, and charg
ed Mr.. Woodbridge, OF Nermont, with sayin'
| that he was no statesman,
| Mr.. Woodbridge sprang out of his seal
and said the declaration was false, and know
bv Butler to be so when he made it.
| Butler then said he took it back, and as
| SumpQ Tue TGfcfSCs w
that he apds a statesman. This paved IN
way for tilt between Butler and Bingham
The debate ran along until the termt
charged the latter with being in spirit as we
as in body on the democratic side. bins
ham and other republicans sit on the DEM
cratic side.
In the course of his reply, Bingham char
ed Butler with voting for jeff. Davis57 TIM
in the Charleston convention, and sneerlng
alluded to him as the hero of Fort Fisher
/. This brought down round of applause.
Il Butler Immediately retorted by sayi1
that he did the best he could at Fort Fish'
and wound up by declaring tha:, whatev
he might have done in the field, he had u
: the blood of an innocent woman upon his han
which was not the case with the memb
from Ohio. He referred, he said, to Mr. 81
| ratt. whom Bingham prosecuted on the &C
spiracy trial, and whom he (Butler) beiieV
| to be innocent.
: This declaration caused an intense sen:
). ton throughout the crowded galleries and
q the floor.
The house voted Bingham an opportun
to reply, and he defended himself from
charge. The measure was then consider
without final vote.
