OFFICIAL pAPHR.
A RADICAL KEY NOTE FOR CONGRESS

The New York Independent lays out for
Congress its work for the winter, and among
the jobs which it would have done at once,
it mentions the following:
WO hope the House of Representatives
will promptly prepare articles of impeach
meut against the Supreme Court OF the
United States, including its whole bench OF
Judges, oil and singular, for disobedience to
the Ciyil Rights Bill. Of course, when we
say impeachment, we mean the mild pro-
cess Of moral Indignation, rather than the
fierce alternative of criminal prose ecuton.
The thirteenth rule Of the Supreme Court is
as follows: "The service If all subpnnas
shall be by delivery Of u copy thereof by
the officer serving the same TO the defend
ant personally, or in case Of husband and
wife, to the husband personally, or by leav.
ing copy thereof at the dwelling house or
usual place of abode OF each defendant,
With some free phite person, who is a mem
Der or resident in the family" This rule, be
il remembered, is rule of the cour, over
which Salmon Portland Chase, of anti slav-
cry memory, daily presides!
The unsettled condition of the South, the
continuous prosecutions Of the Negro, the
ostracism of Northern settlers, the continued
RIGHTEOUSNESS Of many former rebels all
this requires the serious and stern attention
of Congress. We say it requires the atten.
sion Of Congress, not forgetting that il is the
duty Of President who has said "Let US
have peace" to keep the peace. We have
uttered few criticisms upon the sdministra.
ton OF President Grant 1t has seemed to
US that from the beginning of his term he
has been animated by patriotic desire to
do justice to the negro. Certainly, he has
signally proven his willingness to see the
wronged race righted. He not only urged
in his nsugura, the speedy passage of the
Fifteenth Amendment, but he Immediately
began to appoint colored men to responsible
offices under the Government. Only two
criticisms do we care to urge against our
we'll meaning Chief Magistrate: one of which
is that he has not always been go happy in
the selection Of his white as of his black as
sociates in the Government and the other
is that he has failed to make the negro's life
safe on the Southern plantations. If the
President answers, ~ have done my best,
then let Congress devise a way of doing bet
ter. The need Of interposition in the ne.
gros behalf was never greater than now.

Pneumatic Train Braks

Reference has already been made to tn,
contemplated testing of new train brake
invented by George Westinghaus Jr., o
| Pittsburgh. An experimental trip has beer
made on the Chicago & Northwestern road
and the new brake thoroughly and salts
factorily tested 10 the presence of large
number of experienced railroad officers and
practical mschinists. The Chicago Railacag
ReUieD gives the subjoined account Of the
experiment:
The train was twice stopped with the
party on board, and oil we're astonished that
30 sudden a stop under high speed could be
made without perceptible jar or jerking, OF
other inconvenience to the passengers. It's
motion, due to the application of the pow
er equally and contsmporaneously to all the
wheels of all the oars,-can be com.
pared to nothing more suggestive than the
motion Of Swing" approaching the ex
tremity of ts arc. Having disembnrked, the
party witnessed two applications Of the
brake, the train moving in the first instance
about 80 miles, and in the second instance
having backed two mles) more than 40
miles per hour. The first time it was stop
ped in l9 seconds, in distance only 60 feet
greater than its own length The second
time it came to rest in Is seconds, in dis
tance so feet more than it's length. Con.
tanning only six day cars, the train was
considerably shorter than are most of our
express trains with their baggage and long
palace cars.
The apparatus is, as before described,
wholly under the control Of the engineer,
and is applied by motion similar to that
by which valve is opened; but, though
operating solely from the engine, and dis
pensing with the service Of brakemen, it
works in connection with the hand brake, if
these are retained. In the present instance
the entir apparatus is the same that has
been in use daily for several months, ON a
train making no fewer than 100 stops per
day.

The Montgomery (Ala.) Mail of Novem.
ber l6, has the following paragraph: "The
Legislature convened yesterday noon in re-
gular session, at IL o'clock. All the thieves,
penitentiary convicts, Yankee bummers,
bigamists, BARRIERS and shoemakers we're in
their seats. Had there not been presen. a
score of true Alabsmiaus, in the shape of
the little band Of Democrats, the concern
might have been mistaken for lunatic
asylum or peDitentiary. The Assembly
may be generally characterized as low.
proved and empty pocketed. It is sugges.
tive Of wharf-rats, plug-uglies and sne.k.
thieves. Tobacco.spit,le tricAles pown from
the corners of it's mouth; crow-feet rsdiate
from the contracted eyes, the skin is drawn
tightly over it. nose; its breeches are greasy;
its boots are unblscked; it smells of cheese
and Odor d 4friqus."

A New York dispatch, says The stock
and gold markets we're buoyant, but when
the Presidents Message became known there
was a reaction, especially on account of his
views about specie payments. The stock
market became dull and drepressed, and
there was a decline in gold, which rallied sf.
terward, but closed heavily. The greatest
activity was in Government bonds, which
advanced, under favorable news from Lon
don, bu. subsequently fell off"
