STRUGGLE OVER THE SPons.-Senacor
FENToN's resolution inquiring into the
management Of the New York custom
house is indicative of the strife between the
Radical ms and outs over the immense
spoils of the New York custom-house. The
war of the lean and hungry Radicals in this
city over the small officers here is nothing
compared with the war over the rich spoils
of office in New York. The bitter and en-
vious partisan jealousies engendered by
the perquisites, pickings, and stealinss in
New York are unlimited. The custom
house army has been re-oficered by Gen.
GRANT, and now comes the ousted side to
get at the Administration of Gen. GRANTS
appointees through inquiry in the Senate
Men can but poorly judge the extent OF
feeling in this matter from the surface of
things. And as the Senate has a screw
upon the appointments and removals, an
investigation from that quarter is serious
matter. But in such a case the Gins "
have all the advantage. Money and malt
go long way to affect judgments these
days, and the Gins" always have the larg-
est supply of these convincing arguments.
In these corrupt days, indeed, it might,
without very serious injustice, be strongly
suspected that the desire to elicit these ar.
guments-to get share of the fine cheeses
of the ce-holders-is sometimes the
origin of inquiry and investigation !!

The Amnesty Question.


Nm. hill, REPRODUCED by General BUTLER

,,aSs He had no hope Of its passage when

Mr GREELEY that "it relieves no one." We

sees that they are gradually dying out 80

Senator Johnston.

We suspect from an inquiry addressed 10
us that there is q purpose to make the ST.
lence of Mr.. JOHNSTON during the recent
debate in the Senate upon Mr.. McCREERY'
resolution a ground of complaint against
him. We are asked by correspondent
whether he (ir. JonSsTo*) was present on
that occasion. We suppose ne was. lie
was one of the nine who voted to permit
Mr.. McCREERY to withdraw his resolution.
We see no just ground of complaint
against MIR. JOHNSTON either for his silence
or his vote. The resolution Of Mr.. McCREERy
was most unfortunate one. Improper
at any time but new, even if properly
prepared, altogether iil-timed. The Radi-
call blatteration elected by this unfortunate
resolution was just what might have been
expected. The fame and memory Of LEE
needed no defence from such babble. We
would applaud the wisdom which would
restrain a gentleman from the defence of
LEE under such circumstances. Were he
alive no man within the broad limits of the
Union would more deplore Mir. MCCREERY's
motion than he. The man who would dig
Nifty the gable which was unfortunately
elected by replying to it would intlict pain
upon the very shade Of the departed hero.
1t would be in the last degree unjust to Mr..
JOHNSTON, and serious reflection upon
the good sense Of Virginians, to censure him
for his marked discretion on the occasion.

TRAGEDIES IN CAIIFoRN1A.-San Fran
cisco, Dec 15.-Charles E. Fisher, business
manager Of the Sacramento Daily Reporter,
was shot dead in his own house last night
by Charles Deel, young man who was
paving attentions to the daughter of MIR.
Fisher. and who had just been ordered by
him to leave the house. Fisher had struck
Deel several blows on the head with q cane
before the third and fatal shot was fired.
AT Colusa, Cal. yesterday, Dad Shepard
son, farmer, and Heury Stevens, an en-
ploye, had fight. Stevens attacked with
pitchfork. and Stephenson endcavored
to defend himself with revolver, firing
four shots, two of which went through the
lungs of stevens, and the others entered his
own thigh and body. The two were wound
ed MORALLY.
Jack Belle, an old resident Of Los Ange-
los, was murdered yesterday by Miguel
Lachenas, who claimed the land that Bell
was blowing. After shooting Bell, Lache-
mas went to the city and gave himself up.
Lachenas is said to have committed three
murders previously, and the citizens are
terribly incensed against him. The eXami-
nation of the prisoner has been postponed
| until Saturday, but it is feared the citizens
will attempt to lynch him tonight.

DIS ABIIITIEs-A Tribune telegram Saws

DIsAB1LITIEs.-A. Tribune telegram says
Senator Robertson, who is chairman of
the Senate Committee on Political DiSabil-
tiles, and to which will be referred, without
doubt, all bills relating to amnesty, says
that if General Buffers bill. or any substi-
tute for it having its main features, passes
the House, he Shall move the adoption of
his bill of last winter rs substitute. His
bill grants amnesty to all classes, with three
exceptions, namely First. Those who left
seats in Congress to participate in the re-
bellion. Second. Those who left commits
sions in the army and navy to take part in
the rebellion; and Third. Those who
were members Of the conventions which
passed the ordinance Of secession and voted
therefor. The bill does not permanently
disqualify these classes, but excludes them
from the benefits of the present bill.
