A Busy SUNDAY IN THE STATE DEPART
MENr.-Yesterday, it appears, was remark
ably busy day in the State Department, and il
is supposed that it was all in reference to a
new set of instructions for Reverdy Johnson
on the Alabama claims. Mr.. Seward has,
then, at length discovered that something more
than 'the eyes Of Delaware" have been upon
him in this business, and that his good man
Reverdy has been cutting 1t rather too fat,
not only with Mr.. Laird and Mr.. Roebuck, but
also with the outgoing tory government, and
that in the matter Of mutual concessions Mr..
johnson, in his Astounding liberality, has been
conceding too much. Mr.. Seward Is won
derful man in jumping Jim Grow.

IMMEDIATE RESUMPTION OF SPECIE PAY
MENTs.-We are for immediate resumption of
specie payments by every financier or philoso-
immediate resumption, and accordingly call
upon Greeley and all others who clamor for it
to carry out their theory in practice. Let the
tribune employees demand their wages in coin
Immediately, and let all who want instant re-
sumption pay gold for what they use or to
those having any claims upon them. That is
the way to bring about immediate specie pay
ments, and would test the honesty of the
ravng advocates Of this theory.

The Tariff aud the Tariff Rings in Con-
Among the nnumerable rings which beset
Congress and overcrowd the lobby the tariff
rings loom up most conspicuously. The
interested parties in every interest in the
country, whether it be iron, copper, books,
soda ash, tin and the thousand other materials
and compounds which enter into our manufac-
Aires or contribute to our general comfort, are
always ready to introduce new tariff bills into
Congress to suit the peculiar and pecuniary
interests with which they are allied Take the
bill Of Mr.. Moorhead of Pennsylvania, for ex-
ample. Ito increase the revenue from duties
and SO forth, known as the 'sShort Tariff bill"
OF course everything which can benefit Penn
sylvania is advocated in this document And
why? The answer is plain. Mr. Moorhead
is an aspiring candidate for the Office OF
United States Senator from Pennsylvania, to
fill the seat soon to be vacated by Senator
Buckalew, and it is to tickle the ears of the
Pennsylvania Legislature and bring the author
prominently before the people OF that Common
wealth that this new tariff bill was introduced
by Mr.. Moorhcad. 1t is hardly necessary to
say that the interests of the country at
large form no part of the bill, and
equally unnecessary to add that the local inte-
rests Of Pennsylvania are carefully attended to
in its pages. Copies Of the bill, we understand,
have been literally distributed throughout the
State, through the direct influence of high
tariff organization in Philadelphia.
The Treasury rings and the tariff rings seem
to work together in harmony for the plumber of
the people, who have to pay exorbitant prices
for everything which they consume, levied
upon them in the shape of taxes imposed upon
the necessary articles Of life. This bill of Mr..
Moorhead is but another instance of this.
II puts tax upon materials used in the manu-
facture OF soap, glass, printing paper and other
things indispensable to the masses, while it
throws the shield Of protection over the
products which contribute TO the material
advantages Of Pennsylvania manufacturers.
Although il is not likely that Mr. Moorheads
bill will pass, IL is well to draw attention to
the method by which Congress is attempted
to be manipulated by political and sectional
rings on the question Of the tariff.

Too MANY IRONS IN THE FIRE.-Mr. Sew
ards unfinished real estate business embraces
St. Thomas, the Dominican bay of SANTANA,
Cuba, the annexation of the whole island Of
Hayt, the isthmus of Darien, and likewise, it
is said, certain land and railway and express
company enterprises in Mexico, reciprocity
treaty with the Sandwich Islands and an I'M
settled claim against the King Of the Fejces.
No wonder, with SO many irons in thef fire, he
should get little of the track on the Alabama
claims.

MORE Euss THAN FEATHERS. The Bohe-
milan writer's and the Washington correspond
ents are making great fuss over the fact
that Caleb Gushing was recently seen leaving
the Secretary of States Office with carpet
bag in his hand, and all are anxious to know
where he has gone. Nobody outside the two
classes of individuals seems to care button
what has become of Caleb. To US it appears
to be one Of those little tricks of Mr.. Seward
TO get up sensation.

GENERAL GRANTS MOVEMENTS. After the
good time enjoyed by General Grant on his
late visit to the grand army reunion at Chi
cago he has returned to Washington, ond we
shall most probably next hear Of him again in
New York as the lion of some grand social re-
union. He seems to enter fully into the spirit Of
the good old maxim that "all work and no play
makes Jack dull boy" especially in view Of
the great work before him.

STILL ANOTHER RrSG.--There is a new
ring in this city, with a branch Office ia
Washington, which may be styled The steam
ship ring, or the steamship subsidy ring, as
the ''subsidy" appears to be all that the
operators are anxious about. II is made up
of Bohemians, broken down steamship men.

bers Of Congress-, who are now in a fair way

the United States, touching every point
reached by the Western Union for ten or
twelve million dollars, and secure better posts,
better wires better insulation, better equip
ments and hence better facilities than the old
lines afford. AT a fair cost of construction
and with the working expenses properly econo-
mixed the telegraphc business of the country
would pay a handsome profit at one-fourth of
the present monopoly rates and Justify the
extension of telegraphic facilities to every por
ton of the country.
The humbug about the danger of government
monopolies has long since been exploded. The
admirable Post Office system is a practical
Illustration of its folly. This plea Of the oppo-
sition lobby is about on par with their pre-
tence that the proposed acquisition of the
telegraph by the government would be an act
OF injustice to those whose intellect and means
have perfected our telegraphc system. The
fact is that the telegraph monopoly is now held
altogether in the hands of sharp spectators
and adventures, who have seized upon it by
means of watered stock operations and jobbing
consultations. The men of thought and
genius who founded telegraphy as science
have been treated by them with cruel injustice
and are at the present moment wholly ex-
cluded from the profits and emoluments Of the
business.

TIE SPANISH REVOLUTION. The latest re-
port from Spain is that the Carlists are
organizing for coup detat as soon as the
revolutionary factions get entangled in a
clashing of arms, which is expected as the
next phase in the revolution. Hence, no
doubt, one great reason with Napoleon for
peace on the Eastern question. lie wishes
first to have settlement Of the Spanish ques-
ton.

Turkey and Greccc-The War Prospect.
According to our latest news the situation
between Greece and Turkey is materially
changed. The great Powers are moving in
favor of peace. With the exception of the little
encounter in the Bay of Syria there has been
no actual collision. On the part of Turkey
there seems to be desire to avoid anything
like rashness. Admiral Hobart Pacha was
waiting orders in the Bay of SYRIA before taking
further action against the Erosis. Omar
Pacha, too, had received instructions not to
invade Grecian territory unless armed bands
of Greeks pass the Thessalian frontier. On
the part OF the Athenians the war spirit seems
to run high; but Populations from Nauplia,
Corfu, Patras and Corinth protest against the
war policy of the government as ruinous to
Greece. The hope Of the Athenians seems to
be that the Greeks of Thessaly and Macedonia
will rise against their Turkish masters. It is
also announced that Russia and the other
great Powers agree that both the Porte and
Greece should delay action for five days in
order that negotiations for settlement of the
questions may be attempted. Meanwhile we
learn that the ambassadors of Turkey and
Greece have not yet left their respective posts
at Athens and Constantinople, and that a
change Of ministry has taken place in Athens.
This last news seems to indicate that Greece
is yielding to outside pressure, and that war,
after all, may be averted. The prospect of
war was telling in financial centres. In all
moneyed values there was, for day or two,
general falling of. Our very latest advices,
by the cable, however, look to the main
tenance Of peace. The Western Powers are
inclined to support the "sick man" Of Turkey,
while Russia asks for some concessions to
Greece, and in behalf of peace she will
probably gain a point or two, for, all things
considered, Russia, Of all the great Powers, is
best prepared for continental war.

We yesterday published very able resume
Of what has thus far been done to clear chan
mel at Hell Gate suitable for the passage of
the largest vessels. No person at casual
glance can estimate the advantages which
hang upon the successful accomplishment or
this great work. The figures stated yesterday
are worthy of the most careful consideration,
for they enable us to get at a mathematical re-
sult:-'From the LIST of August to the LIST
of December there have passed through
Hell Gate no less than 10, 40S vessels, OF all
classes. OF these there were 2,434 steamers,
s ships, % barks, 435 briggs, 1859 schooners
and 4,6f9 soops. An estimate believed to
be rather under than above the actual figures
fixes the value of this floating property at
1886, 600, or daily average of So, l4l 900,
the ownership of which is divided among
thousands of people from New York to Maine.
But this is only the value of the vessels, with
a combined tonnage of 5,4G6, 900 tons; or a
daily average Of 45,557 tons. The roads over
which the marine trade of six States passes
daily in such volume as this, are most GER
tainly of more than local Importance. Fur
Their, the amount of freight transported by way
of He'll Gate by steamers alone averages
$4,000 900 per day, increased by about
81 900, 900 more carried in sailing craft, thus
giving grand total in the value of freight
and of the ships carrying it OF overs l6, 600, 600
daily exposed to the dangers of the rocks and
reefs Of this narrow passage. Moreover, from
the register of the steamers and from other
reliable sources it has been ascertained that
the passenger traffic on the Sound to and from
New York averaged during the four months
from August to December 1912 persons daily,
exclusive the officers and crews of the vessels,
which will increase the total daily average to
about IL, 600 persons" This shows that there
are daily sixteen millions Of property passing
this tortuous route. This amount pays an
insurance in proportion to the danger of navi-
cation. Decreasing the dangers, would not
the amount saved on insurance alone more
than pay the interest on the capital required
for the removing of the obstacles which
cause the greater part Of those dangers?
The benefit to transatlantic commerce, the
more rapid communication with Europe, its
advantages to our defences against foreign
aggression, its extension of the room required
locally for our rapidly developing trade all
point to this as something prominent in i'm
portance for legislative consideration.
