SPECIAL COMMISSIONER OF TIE REV
ENIP

We
The principal Republican papers of tho
country have repeatedly expressed their
opinion upon The supposed intention of
Congress to make no provision for the COL
tinuance Of the Office of Special Conmis-
eioner Of the Revenue, now filed by A1r.
Wells The Office expires by limitation
with the present fiscal year. The under-
standiDg, however, now is, that majority
Of both branches IN Congress favor the
continuance of the Office, but the Presi-
dent. in Difference to 1Ir. Boutwell's pecu-
liar opinions OF his own Importance, has in
timated that he viii not reappoint Air.
Wells Il this be true, then it is
greatly to be regretted. The conn

to Mr.. Wells which the country Is in
no disposition to forget: The close of the

chaotic confusion We did not know how
much We owed, nor how much we had
spent, nor the amount Of revenue We

been levied with the most indiscriminate

The annexation policy of the administration
is attended with great deal Of activity and
scandal in the matter Of the Dominican Re-
public, with considerable corruption in the
direction Of Cubs, and with little or no discre-
tion towards the only point which affords eny
promise commensurate with its expenBe,
namely, British America.

Senator Ferry, Of Connecticut, who belongs
to that large wing Of the Republican party
which has not abdicated its right Of private
Judgment, yesterday presented memorial Of
Mr.. Hatch. Of Connecticut, Ferzy's own
State, who has just escaped from one OF Bsez's
prisons. This memorial, accompanied with
letters and evidence, attoats that l1r. Hatch
had nearly lost his head, not to speak Of his
liberty, for throwing his influence against
General Dabcock and the real estate agents
OF the Dominican Republic. Babcock
is ono OF the two intimate secre-
taries and confddntes Of the President
General Porter being his Siauese twin. Both
arc young men, happily married, very fond Of
each other, and. since tho death Of General
Rawlins, Grant has taken their advice more
implicitly, and sent them upon moro confden-
tial er1ands than any person or persons who
haze the quaint distinction Of being popular
with him. Neither Of these young men are
much above 30; both Of them belong to the
class Of what are called discreet young fellows,
with the power Of silence, OF keeping their ears
open, and OF sympathising with Grant in his
bueiuesH turns and various quidditcs Of acsio-
political eort. In short, striking out the qu4li-
flcation Of genius, Dabcock and Porter are to
Grant what young Alexander Hamilton and
David Humphreys were to Washington, the
suggesters and setters-up Of great State
schemes and the special champions OF his
honor. So far as is known, both Of them arc
young men Of integrity. It was attempted to
drag Porter into the Fiak-Corbin Wall street
scandal but few persons believed that be had
anything more to do with it than
to protect the Presidents reputation,
and discover tho cxact game OF the consplra-
tors. Porter be1onga to ono of those Eastern
Pennsylvania families which h&ye been repro
scented in the United States Army from the be-
ginning Of time. Dabcock has d derivation less
phlegmatic, ha1ling from New England, and
bis operations have been OF moro brilliant
and commercial sort. He has been the special
correspondent and presidential jenkins to
visit the old City of San Domingo. and do tho
