\ prominent member of Congress
from New York states his intention
10 move the appointment of com
mi,tcu, with power ~ send for per-
.nns. papers, Sc, for the purpose OF
showing up the parties interested
IN the recent gold speculation in
New York. This is the proper
manner OF setting the question
right. Let US have committee by
al means, to determine whether, rs
. Fisk, Jr., Jay Gould and the rest OF
that clique lave charged, the Prcsi'
dent was Interested ia, or was the
dnpc of the gold ring. Tho Presi'
dents friends should demand the
fullest investigation, else he will
rest under the charges that have
been made Of completely with gold
gamblers. The circumstances sur
rounding the case are so peculiar
that the public cannot well believe
the President unspottcd with the
gold ring" faint, unless there is
the most direct and positive cvi-
dcnce to the contrary.
The Supreme Court did not reach
n decision in the Icrger case TO-
day. 1t is thought The decision has
hcen determined on and will be
given on Monday next. The Radi-
Gals think that the decision will be
in favor of the wri, and adverse to
the constitutionaity Of the recon
struction laws. "The thief doth
fear each bush IN officer" and their
guilty souls fear an honest decision
On the work Of the past five years.
The leaders were well aware of the
high handed usurpation of power
By Congress, only Thaddcus Stevens
being honestly bold enorgh TO say
that they were acting outside the
Constitution. Now they fear the
Supreme Court may by breath
tumble to the ground the work that
cost so much villainy, tyranny,
blood, wrong and treasure, and in
Wow of it they Indicate further
usurpations of power by Congress,
aided by the executive, who no
doubt will be their plant tool, in
view of the fact that he wears the
collar lettcrcd, "Icnuro of office"
which proves ownership. The fol-
lowing from Forney shows what
they fear and what they threaten
1T is to be regretted that Congress
is not in session. The effect of
decision against reconstruction (or
that is what the counsel for Ycrgcr
are looking for) will probably con
strain the Executive to some action
to save the unreconstructed States,
like Mississippi and'Tcxas. from a
worse fate almost than the rebellion
itself. His counsellors are to be
found in u Republican Congress and
in patriotic people. Should the
Supreme Court assume eXtraordi-
nary powers, and attempt, in utter
defiance Of all presidents, to over
throw the laws intended to restore
tho revoltcd States, under republican
institutions, to their relations to the
government, the Executive and
Congress must find some remedy
for the evil" Here is a threat
against the Supreme Court, and an
attempt to intimidate the President
by telling him who his counsollors
are. Of course Congress is to be his
rude, and some remedy must be
found. sThe above owl, from the
Jacobn Forney, plainly tells what
they expect. and forcshadows what
they will do to retain their ill-got-
ten power TO plumber the people.
The Commercial Convention at
Louisville appointed Commodore
Maury to the position of General
Agent of Immigration. The New
York Journal Of Commerce says in
approval, "Thc choice is a good
one. No man in this country better
understands the climate, soil and
diverse advantages of the different
Southern States for various classes
of settlers, than Commodore Maury.
Since the war he has paid particular
attention to the subject Of immigra
ton, and has done more for that in
