NOTES AT THE CAPITOL.
MIR. Bingham yesterday, with characteris-
tic meanntss and vihdictiveness, led .the
onslaught against the resolution to give the
twenty per cent additional compensation. to
the clerks and employees in the executive
departments and Capitol, &c. Under shii
leadership the proposition was tabled sby
vote of GS to G., and it is very questionable
whether it can be revived and passed. Re
publican members which to have something
to point to as set-off against the charges
of fraud, extravaganza, and jobbery whielt
are certain to be made against THEM. ,,.lAa
for Mr.. Bingham, if the clerks want tosin~
duce him to favor their project it will be
quite easy. They must appeal to his vanl~
ty. Let them hold meeting and appoint
a committee to wait on him, and ask for
his help, upon the allegation that he is The
greatest orator that ever lived, ancient or
modern, and they are certain to get him,

The Twenty Per Gent. IsHi.
As will be seen from our rcpor. of Con.
gressional proceedings, the Radical ma
jority in the House have finally laid upon
table the clerk" twenty per cent. bill. 1t
is idle now to refer to the justice of this
poor pittance Of relief TO the ill-paid en-
ployes of the Government in the various
departments. No argument in this respect
is now needed. SINCE 1861 the cost Of ly-
ing in Washington has been nearly doub,-
ed, and an increase of compensation has
been accorded in almost every branch of
labor The propriety Of this advance o.
wages has been signay recognized by Coz
gress by the addition of sirtys,r and swo-
thirds per cent. to thePay Of its members,
and proportionate increase Of the salaries
of its o,oa Immediate employees. The Just
expectations Of the employees Of the various
excctive departments alone are unsatisfed
and their appeals unhccded, while they are
limited to salaries that were admitted OF be
meagre enough when were first established,
wher, too, the cost of living was at lcas-
one-half less than at present
1t must be observed that few of the men
who voted against this measure did so
without a knowledge OF the injustice they
infected giving, however, as a reason iut,
their action, political expedency. 1t IL
well for our clerical friends to take notice OF
this fact. Millions upon millions Of dollars
have been expended during the past lew
years to establish and sustain negro supre-
macy; bat whln, as in hundreds OF cases in
the departments, the manned and crippled
soldier asks for relief sufficient to support
and MAINTAIN his family against want, this
same party turns its back coldlyupon them,
, and refuses the little nittance so justly ask
ed tor. 8 na9,&

dation oil the measure, and uses all the III
huence of his position to accomplish its d.
leat and an expediency Congress, iiiitat-
! ing their great exemplar, first passes, tn,
bill, then recalls 1t and laysit on the table
Meanwhile the very economical Radical
candidate for the President, who denies
this patry twenty per cent, to starving
clerks and department emplpyes,. strnpglv
recommends an increase Of thirysthree and
a third per cent, in the pay of officers of the
army. Such is Radical justice and cccnoy
myl 1t has been noted with satisfaction
ahat this clerks bill has, at all times, ~
ceived the almost unanimous support Of tho
Democrats in Congress. afa
