state Exemption Laws and General
R0nIrruDt Law

state Exemption Laws and q General
Bankrupt Law.
A POINT Of considerable interest in connection
with the Bankrupt bill now before Congress,
was discussed in the Senate yesterday. The
bill contains a.claUse exemptlDg such "prO-
perty as is exempted from levy and sale upon
execution by the laws of the State in which
the bankrupt has his domicile at the time of
the commencement of the proceedings in
bankruptcy, to an amount notexceeding that
allowed by such State exemption laws in
force in the year 1904"
This amount varies largely in the different
States. 1t has been cherished policy with
the Western States to make large exemptions
covering homesteads and other preporty
of considerable value. In California the
amount thus exempted is $4,000; in Kansas
homestead of at least eighty acres of farm
ing land may be exempted; and in other
States various amounts are by law exempted
from forced sale.
In discussing the bill Mr.. Trumbull main
tained-and stated that the Judiciary Com
mittee agreed with him-tbat if the clause
above quoted we're allowed to remain, the
law would not be general bankrupt law"
the only one Congress had right to pass.
On the other side, Mr.. Howard, Reverdy
johnson, and other Senators maintained that
the uniformity required by the Constitution
was simply that there should be one general
law-Tot special law tor this State and for
that.
The point is a nice one, and the authorities
in the Senate seem to be about equally divided
upon it. The Senate adjourned without com
ing to vote.

Removals from Office.

1HE Presidents reply to Mr.. Myers resolu-
ton of December 6, calling for information
in regard to removals from office, reveals the
fact that Mr.. Seward has reappointed no per-
sons in his department after rejection by the
Senate; that no names were withheld from
the Senate during the session; and that only
ten removals have been made.
The Secretary of War and the Secretary of
the Navy have reappointed no persons after
rejection, and have Intentionally withheld no
name from the Senate.
The Treasury Department seems to have
been prostituted the most of any one. In this
Department two hundred and seventy re-
movals were made during the recess of Con-
gress. Twenty-six were reappointed, in
defiance of the Constitution, after rejection
by the Senate.
The Post Office Department shows one
hundred and flty-nine removals for par
tisan political purposes, the Department Of
the Interior nineteen, and the Attorney
Generals Department nineteen.
OF course these figures reveal but u frac-
ton of the changes that have been made, as
they do not cover the large numbe" of sub
ordinate officers whose appoint ments are not
referred to the Senate.

THE RIGHT TO BEAR ARMs.-It is stated
that in Mississippi two fruitful sources of
dissatisfaction to the freedmen are the laws
prohibiting their carrying firearms, and
owning and holding real estate. Each of
these laws is unconstitutional. The right of
the people to bear arms is especially guaran-
teed in the Constitution. The freedmen have
as good right to carry firearms as their late
masters have.

The BILL TO TRANSFER THE INDIAN
BUREAU TO THE WAR DEPARTMENT.-The
House OF Representatives, on Thursday passed
the bill transferring the Indian Bureau to the
War Department. We have strong hopes
that. if this measure becomes,a law, the frauds
and rascalities which now characterize the
workings of the Indian system will, to
great extent, be abolished. Under the con-
troll of the War Department, the system ought
TO be at least less extraVagantly costly than
at present.
