THE WAR REPORT.

The Report of Secretary Schoiield OF the
War Department is the most compact and con-
else of the official documents presented. The
country has reason to be grateful that our war
reports lack the terrible importance they pos
sessed a few years ago. The Army will be re-
duced to $4,000 by the list of January. The
actual current expenses of the War Department
during the past year have been S6S,743.O94 Il,
besides S0,061, 406 43 old war debts paid during
the year. making the total expenditures of the
Department $7s.7O4,5O1 IA. The appropriations
for the present fiscal year are S35,4OO,557 Az,
which will be exceeded by the expenditure,
leaving deficiency of $13975,000 The discipline
of the Army is stated to be better than over
before since the close of the war. Authority Is
asked to make q large number of smOOth-bore
and rifled guns of heavy caliber for fortifica-
tions as soon as the experiments have de-
termined the most suitable kinds. Subsistence
supplies have been furnished to daily average
of 10000 persons by the Freedmens Bureau,
which is now running 1881 schools, with 1O4,-
327 pupils The Bureau has expended on these
schools during the year $942,523 GO, which does
not include the expenditures of benevolent
societies, estimated at 100000, and by Freed
men, estimated at 100000. The Secretary
recommends that when Indians violate their
treaties they should no longer be regarded as
n nation to be punished by war, but as depen-
dent unciyized people, to be cared for, fed
when necessary, and governed. He approves
and urges Gen. Sherman's recommendation
that the exclusive care of Indian affairs be
transferred To the War Department.

FACTS FOR THE SOUTH.

What deters immigrants from going South
is, if we can trust The Mobile tribune, the
Chicken stealing negro, and the Treasury -rob-
Ching Garnet baggerr And The Tribune goes
on to say of the latter: "There is not right
"mnded man, North or South, but knows that
"eyerv one of these men, by the usurpations
"of which he has been guilty, is deserving OF
"death. Men who steal offices from the people,
&C. and appropriate the peoples money contrary
" TO their wishes deserve the penalty OF death.
"Any Southern man might put one Oh those
"wretches to death, and retain afterward
conscience as clear as if he had merely killed
ga snake, and yet not single one OF them mas
"been so much as bastinadoed for the public
"crimes he daily commits" Such being the
condition of things in the South, Northern I'M
migrants DESTROYS Of earning an honest living,
refuse to come. But still they are invited to
come. the field is tempting, and "if Gen. Grant
does not make the carpet-baggers behave.
they will all form White Soil party that
"wiln
Such language does the Southern people i'm
mcnse harm, and the reason assigned Tor the
refusal of Northern men to immigrate South is
SO far from the truth that if there were no
carpet baggers and no negroes, and IL the
country was entirely peaceful the Northern
people would not 60 thither now, because they
are not ready. There are large quantities OF
Western land which can be taken up under
the Homestead Law, or which can be had of
railroads, or be bought, second hand, at lower
prices than Southern lands are offered for.
Until there is population west of the Missis-
sippi greater tlan in the whole Sonth there
will be comparatively little immigration south
ward. The considerations of climate, or what
is the same thing, health, OF rich soil, of long
lines of railroad and congenial society make
inducements such "a the South cannot offer,
either to the peolc of the Northern States or
TO Europeans These are facts which the
Southern people will do well TO consider
The best thing they can do is to go to work
to call in and to create skill, to live in peace,
to multiply and replenish, and they will find
use for all their lands. After they shall have
fairly tried TO live within themselves, and
failed, it will be time enough To call upon
Northern people, but bc it remembered that
the North will respond to no invitation until
these back lands are peopled-that is, until
there are people to spare.

Commodore Meade was discharged by Judge
Sutherland yesterday, on the ground that
whether or not the degree of excitement and
displeasure felt by him at the opposition of his
wife and the dis?bedience of his children had
at first wrought him up to condition of mere
frenzy or of actual lunacy, the boundary be-
tween which is very indefinite, in either case
the Judge was satisfied, by the testimony of
the physicians and by his own interview in
court with Commodore Meade that the men
tai condition of the latter has improved and is
not now lunacy. Judge Sutherland held that
it would not do to regard uncontrolled
"or uncomfortable passion as lunacy." Some
degree of passion, or even frenzy. was
natural where the members of family
acted in contempt of the authority and
wishes of the husband and father. Com
modore Meade seems to be victim of the new
commandment parents honor your children,
lest they send you to lunatic asylum" and

The Herald properly objects to giving rev.
cnue officer the right " to compromise case
with a criminal caught in IN effort to defnud
the Government of revenue" We think this
objection is well taken. Every compromise of
fraud is only premium upon additional fraud.
For instance, man may steal 100000, and
when he is detected can escape punishment by
paying to the Government $4,000. Under
such circumstances he will certainly take the
chances. The only difference is: that if he
succeeds he makes 100000 and if not he
makes one-half the amount. The penal char
acter of the law is eliminated. and i'll our laws
the penalty Is an essential point.

On the 1st instant there was an interval of
less than 400 miles remaining between the two
main portions of the Pacific Railroad line. OF
this gap the greater portion was graded. and
II is believed the whole line may DO opened to
the Pacific waters by June next. 1t appears
that no less than 700 miles of the great national
thoroughfare have been built within the cur
rent year, exclusive of the branch lines, which
must have built $50 miles additional OF this
the eastern portion OF the main stem line has
contributed 400 miles between the crests of the
Black Hills and the Uinta Mountains. On the
divide between the waters of Green River and
the Salt Lake Valley, Mt an altitude OF 1900
feet above sea-level, the Eastern Company are
probably brought to halt by tho recent
storms, though it is said they still have hopes
of carrying their line out to the Great Basin
during the Winter. The Central Pacific Com
pany, who build and control the westerly por-
ton, with late start over tho Sierra Nevada
Mountains, have. by dht of energy and abund-
ant supplies of cheap and serviceable Asiatic Ia
Dor, swept east Mt the rate Of 80 miles per month

1t is now believed that the recent terrible
steamboat disaster on the Ohio River resulted
from misunderstanding of signals, and that
the fire was caused by the bursting of several
barrels of petroleum which was stored On the
deck of the United States. Mr.. Harrgan, clerk
of the United States, in his published state
ment, says: "The collision drove a number OF
"barrels of petroleum intoithe furnace, causing
"the flames to flash up in moment" BY an
act of Congress, approved July 25, 1868, it
is provided: "Nor shall coal oil or crude
petroleum be hereafter carried on such
"steamers, except on the decks or guards there
"of. and at such distance from the furnaces or
"fires as may be prescribed by any supervising
"inspector, or any board of local inspectors"

be made, and measures taken to enforce TINS
