The exposure of abuses in the sale of cadet
ships in Congress is already very full and very
notifying. Members of both parties and from
all sections of the country are involved in
charges of the most painful character. Thus
far only the case of Mr.. b. f. Whittemore of
South Carolina has been concluded. The
evidence of corruption appears to be complete
and convincing. A resolution expelling the
member was yesterday presented i'll the House.
and he is TO appear on Wednesday to show
cause why he should not be expelled. We
trust there will be as prompt and full nves-
tigation into all the cases developed. Congress
cannot safely permit such corruption to go
unrebuked for Il moment, and not seat in
Congress should be for single hour disgraced
by member whose guilt has been
made apparent. We have not always
spoken in reverence of the Gar
pet Baggers :" we have, indeed. limited
once or twice to the enthusiastic partisans who
complained of our old fashioned idea that the
majority must eventually rule, at the South as
well as elsewhere, that no party that ever
lived could undertake the responsibility
for some of them; but, after all, we
had rated them something higher than this.
For their credit, as well rs for that of Con-
gress mt large, we hope for an unanimous vote
for the expulsion of every clearly convicted

Yesterday in Congress there was another
succession of attacks on the national purse.
Mr. Butler of Tennessee wanted pay for stores
taken from loyal citizens during the war; Mr..
Cullom desired to settle with Montana for
expenses of troops in 1867; Mr.. McCrary was
anxious to create the Office of Government
Architect; Mr.. Eldredge sought an appropria-
ton for a harbOr at Port Washington, Wis;
Mr. johnson insisted on the erection of public
buildings in San Francisco, and on the grant
ing of aid to California Railroad /; and Mr..
Smith asked money to help Oregon to con-
struct a steamboat canal around the Falls of
the Willamette River. Desirable az these
objects may be in themselves, we again beg to
remind Congressman that the time to give
them public aid has not yet arrived. Our first
duty is to diminish the national debt and so
to reduce largely the taxation pressing upon
the people. That accomplished, but not before,
we shall be in position to consider these pet
financial projects of honorable members.

A foolish impression long prevailed that
butchers are particularly ferocious and sangui-

on this account, they were not allowed to sit
on jures in cases of life and death. How much
the craft has been wrongcd is proved 10y the
