1ROTT POPNL1R RECORDS.

We have not professed much admiration for
Congress, during its late session. In fact,
we have MT the habit of praising Congress,
which is so strong with some of our cOtem-
poraries. We do MT often find one to which
we are able to award unqualified praise. The
average Congressman has the habit of looking
mainly to the good of the party;-or rather to
the good of that very important part of the
party having the honor to represent his Dis
trct We confess that to us some other
things appear more important-the welfare of
the Country, the preservation of the National
credit, economy in the National expenditures
Even The Springfield Republicdn-which gener-
ally knows a great deal better-is puzzled about
our hoping that Congress would drop
the Tax and Tariff bills and our subsequently
saying that, in the shape in which they passed.
they make a good record on which to go be-
fore the country. Perhaps a consideration of
the above elementary truths may help
it. We thought it less desirable to make
immediate popularity this Fall by o
reduction of popular burdens, than to
make sure, by an abundant surplus revenue,
sacredly devoted to the reduction of the Debt
of such an improvement in the Public Credit
as should put the possibility of funding our
Debt at low rate of interest beyond
peradveDture. We likewise hoped, by
the failure of the bill to secure
the termination of the Income Tax certainly
the most odiOus and unjust of all our bur
dens. Congress took different view and we
do not complain. So far as the general re-
duction of taxes is concerned, it has made q
record sure to meet immediate popular favor.
AS to the sober second thOught-well, most of
the journals we are noticing are not accus-
toned to look so far ahead as that, although
The Springfield Republican is not wont to be of
their number.
Aside from its interminable gable, this
Congress has really made quite good popular
record, as popular records go. 1t has certainly
put its foot upon most of the jobs of the
session. The railway and steamship projects
were stopped. The currency was not seriously
inflated The thieves who generally hope to get
fraudulent appropriations through in the last
days Of the session were defeated at almost
every point, and the Appropriation bills were
even brougt materially below the estimates
of the Departments. The army was reduced.
Measures were taken that may check frauds
III our elections. In short, some good legis-
lation was secured, and good deal of very bad
legislation was killed. The two features, the
reduction of taxes and economy in appropria-
tons, make very strong points for popular
canvass, and are sure with many. to cover q
multitude of sins.

THE WAR

The absorbing question for the moment in
Europe is the attitude of the neutral powers.
1t seems now to be a question of only few
days, perhaps a few hours, whether the present
struggle shall be simply a trial of strength
between France and Prussia, or a great
continental war, in which all the
powers of Europe are to be more or less
involved. England, though not the most i'm
portant of the parties to this difficulty, is the
one toward which just now attention seems to
be principally directed. Any interference by
France with the neutrality of Belgium will in
vOlve the immediate intervention Of Britain as
an active ally of the Prussians for not only is
she bound by treaty to defend the inviOlability Of
Belgian territory, but she has every reason to
dread the expansion of France toward the
North Sea, whence in time of war the French
cruisers might look down upon the best part
of England's commercial marine, and command
her entire trade with the continent. The
sympathes of Great Britain are conse-
quently strongly with Prussia, and in spite
of the Englishman's thrifty prediction for
peace, it is possible that an alliance with King
William would even now be received in Lon
don with enthusiasm. The comments of the
London press have irritated the French beyond
expression; and as an excited and irritated
Frenchman is by no means the most rea-
sonable of beings we need not be surprised
to hear cries of vengeance against perfidiOus
Albion, and vague threats, such as reach us in
to-day's dispatches, of a possible trespass upon
Belgian soil We do not believe, however,
that the peace between France and England is
as yet seriously endangered. France is not anx-

We are indebted for many curiosities of
crime to Coroners' InquisitiOns, but they sell
dom reveal political secrets, as that over the
dead body of Florence Scannell is doing. The
evidence in that case tells us something Of
the manner in which Tammany prepares the
tickets which its adheTents blindly VOTE 1t is
a very interesting story, but of very low hle
For characters there are pOt-house politicians,
desperate barkeepers, and full corps OF re
"peaters." The scenes are laid in a low
drinking-house in the Eighteenth Ward,
where the proprietor figures as an ac-
cused murderer, and in the magnificent
Clubhouse of the Tammany, where he
is an invited guest and hero. For incidents
there are scenes of "false registering" prepa-
ratory to a primary election, an interruption
of those interesting proceedings, violent af-
fray, and man wounded nobody knows by
whom, but all swearing that the proprietor was
the only man who fired shot The arrest Of
the accused man follows. An examination,
discharge on bail to await the result of the
wounds, and the retirement of the keeper OF
the doggery to the Club House of Tammany
are the next sequences in the narrative. The
victim dies at length, and there follows
fight between the CorOners, represent
ing rival Democratic organizations, for
the sad satisfaction of sitting on the
body of the murdered man, and dissecting it
and the facts of his murder. The political
friend of the murdered man secures the vic
tory, and it will go hard if the political oppo-
nent who fired the shot is not held for trial.
But there is many a slip between the throat
and the moose as New-YOrk murderers well
know; and since the accused will be tried by
Tammany Judges, he has at least little to fear
from the justice of the Coroner.

WAR TOPICS

In the "Napoleonic Ideas" which the
present Emperor gave to the world thirty
years ago. he said: "Will France forever ex-
{" haust her resources aud energies in never
ending suicidal coltestsg MOI" he adds,
such cannot be the destiny of France This
is an excellent NapoleOnic idea but it is evil
dent that il can never be realized while a
Napoleon is permitted to control the destinies
of France.
During the last few years, the Government
of Prussia and the Government of France
have both had experienced military officers in
this country on the duty of inquiring into the
appliances of our late war. One particularly
astute officer of the Prussan general staff,
who has been well known in military circles
here for considerable time, disappeared sud
denly on the first sign of war fortnight ago.
and it is probable that he is by this time in Ber-
lin, If not on the Rhine. He knows all that

Judge Barnard's judicial reputation is not to
rest wholly on his ruling for the benefit OF
Erie. One of his greatest efforts was made
Yesterday in the case of one John Kelly, who
admitted that he had been guilty OF illegal
voting, and it was pronounced in the interest
of Tammany. The sympathetic Judge, after
declaring that he felt sorry for Kelly, defined
his crime of ballOt-box stufing as an "impro-
"priety," which, not to put too fine point on
it, was drawing it mild" 1t was the learned
Judges opinion that if this and like "impro-
"prietiesn were permitted to go unpun-
ished this "Republic cannot last long,"
which we are not prepared to dispute,
though some of his brother Democrats
will doubtless inform him, after their own
elegant style, that he was in these last utter
ances "going it little too strong" But the
last point of the learned charge was the
greatest. In order to punish this heinous
improperly" which involves the safety OF
the Union, and to make a terrible example OF
the culprit to deter other repeaters, the logical
Justice inflicted the "lowest penalty which
"the laws allows" This is just such Daniel
come to Judgment as ShylOck would have
been proud to welcome. He is the Delight Of
Tammany and the Life of Erie.

For long time past the Germans have been
greatly disconnected with their army expendl-
lures and they have lattery groaned grlev-
ously at the burdens thereby imposed. But
these expressions of discomfort, as our Berlin
correspondence elsewhere explains, have been
for political effect at the approaching elections
A new party has been formed with little
other political capital than opposition to
the maintenance of the army. Of course
Napoleon's impetuosity has put an end to tins
party and to this spirit of discomfort. The
greatest enthusiasm everywhere prevails III
North Germany, and the dissensions are now
wholly among the French. The Diet WILL
without doubt vote the army budget as soon
as it meets. Our correspondence leaves the
reader under the impression that if the ambl-
tious Emperor had been content to wait an
other year before forcing the present fight, he
might have had in opposition a Parliament as
divided as that which, in marching to the
Rhine, he leaves behind him.

If possible, even greater than that prevailing

It is evident, from his letter Withdrawing
his resignation, that Superintendent Jourdan
has fallen INTO the hands of the diplomats. 1t
may be inferred that the difficulties, which he
has stated to the public with sufficient distinct
ness have not been removed, although we are
led to suppose from various hints in the letter
that some private understanding has been ar
rived at, satisfactory 20 both parties. We are
afraid, however, that the Superintendent has
made d mistake in allowing himself to be
drawn into the crooked by-ways of supposed

The inquest upon Florence Scannell develops
some truths that the Tammany leaders may
seriously ponder. An old proverb about rogues
falling out may be fifty remembered. The
man who died last week, after a long proba-
ton of agony, from pistol shot at the hands
of his political brethren-who was declared
elected Alderman, but never took his seat
because he was lying helpless in a public hos
pital-very well knew the truth of our general
charges against his party he knew that false
voting was their stronghold that corruption of
the ballot was the main-stay of their success

The majority of Connecticut Legislative
Committee has reported in favor of extending
the suffrage to the score or two of ladies who
have lately been demanding it with such
noisy vehemence. The language of the report,
concedng as it does the weakness, not to say
the inferiority and incapacity of the sex, will
hardly be as welcome to the strong minded
as its final recommendation. There are, be-
sides, certain intmations of the.responsibilities
of citizenship and of Office, which will have no
terrors for the leaders perhaps, but will be
terribly disheartening, if not demoralizing, to
the young converts and timid followers

An informal declaration of our neutrality in
the war between France and North Germany
has been sent abroad in the form of instruc-
tons to American foreign ministers and con-
suls. Food arms, and munitions of war are to
be sold to either party to the conflict but no
enlistment of troops will be permitted in this
country. This it is to be hoped, will put an
end to the propositions for raising independ-
ent corps among the French and Germans of
this city, if the idea was ever seriously enter
tanned.

The old system of paying the pensions had
many annOyances which almost Outweighed
its few advantages. The late Congress could
not greatly increase the pension list or the
payments, but it did good thing for the
pensioners in passing a bill which organizes a
new system of payment, whereby those who
receive will be almost wholly relieved of the
great trouble and expense of getting their
allowances The new bill is published in an
other column, and ought to be studied by
every person whose name is on the roll.
