When Mr.. Fields rose in wrath against the
meek aud guileless member from Saratoga,
charging kim with offering for sale the votes
of ten representative scOundrcls. we had faint
hope that some salutary result would follow
the exposure. We hoped that an investigation
of the most searching character would be made
by the Senate. and that Senator Fields would
stand TO his guns and verify the charge wruug
from him in moment of excitement aud anger.
Mr.. Fields, III his passion, probably spoke tho

A daily paper of this city is anxious that ws
should reduce the taxes and purchase Sau
Domingo; that we should reduce the taxes ana
purchase st. Thomas; that We should reduce
the taxes and subsidize several OF tie u:
schemes now before Congress; that we should
reduce the taxes and keep up a costly MILL
tary machinery; that, in short, We should IT,
duce the taxes to fine point, and disou'e
money with the utmost lavishness. THIS "ou'o

ment to carry on business. Moreover, under
this principle, it would not be necessary Tor
to attempt to carry on business at all Tor

In the massacres which have taken place I'M
der Spanish orders at Jiguani, Ell CObre, Trim
idai. Pinar, Matanzas, Havana, Bayamo, and
other places less notorious, it is possible that
the number of American citizens shot without
a hearing is greater than we know. We think
it can be shown that between the Spanish au-
tholities and volunteers, between assassination
by platoon and assassination singly and other
wise, Americans have been cruelty slaughtered
and in all likelihood will continue to be slain.
Now if the cause of free government and
emancipation as against Slavery and bad faith
is not strong enough to command our
aid, the cause of humanity as against
wholesale, retail, and indscriminate murder
ought to claim our most indignant sympathies.
1t is remarkable that our Consul at Santiago
was compelled to fly for his life, almost at the
time when lie protested against an attempt to
poison an American sailor, and this not because
lie tried to protect citizen of the United
States, but because he sent certain dispatches
to his Government. There can be only one
retort for unexplained menaces like this, or
even for continued apologies for continued
murder-and it is to be hoped that the
anarchists of Havana will bear this in mind.

The danger Of keeping bad company has
found frequent Illustration in the standard
Sunday-schoo Libraries. Now we have it fully
Illuminated in the Congressional reports. The
dignified. portly, white haired, and altogether
respectable as well as respectable looking Mr.
Hooper, NJ C. from Massachusetts,, paid a
visit last Summer to Utah. and was made
welcome by that other tall, but thin, white
haired, and much married Mr.. Hooper, who is
the Utah Delegate to Congress. 1t is not i'll
evidence that while in Salt Lake City Mr..
Hooper of Massachusetts behaved IN every re-
spect as Mr.. Hooper of Utah and Utah CIT
liens generally do; we are not assured That
he embraced either the Utah doctrines or
dansels on the contrary, we know that he
went, saw, and came back unconquered. But
it is vain to hope to escape, in Philadelphia
newspapers, the penalty OF keeping bad COM
pany. Half the culprits of the country lay
their troubles, in ante-mOrtem explanations, at
the doors of evil cOrruptors of good manners.
Mr.. Hooper of Massachusetts may well attri-
butte his present difficulties to his Utah ac-
ouaintances. On Tuesday last the Utah dele
gate made a defense in the House of the Poly
gamy which he practices Cat home), and very
clever defense it was so clever, indeed, that
an enlightened editor of The City of Brotherly
Love attributed it to Mr.. Hooper OF Mas
sachusetts and in vigorous and, of
course, able editorial, denounced his sentiments
thus deliberately expressed as unworthy of civ
ilization and Christianity and shocking to the
country's sense of decency. We know not
whether to envy most the feelings of Mr. Hooper
who did MT deliver the speech, or MIR. Hooper
who did; the editor who wrote the indignant
criticism or the editor who sought to take it
back. One thing the genial old gentleman of the
Ways and Means Committee may as well make
up his mind to he may explain as much as he
peases, in tho House, but he will never, no
never get the matter quite clear in the minds
of the readers Of that Philadelphia newspaper.

The Democratic caucus at Albany last night
had a stormy session at first, but finally
cooled off. Senator Tweed kept aloof, holding
a levee with reporters and other outsiders and
seemed quite indifferent. At 1 o'clock this
morning, however. the caucus sent for him,
aud when our dispatches closed he was in full
communion with his rebellious subjects. The
prospect seems to be that a truce at least, If
not clear surrender of the Norton Democ-
,acy, will be agreed upon before the caucus

The Canadian Papers on the Presi.
dents Message.

TORONTO, ONT, Dec. 6.-The papers this
morning, in commenting on the Presidents
message, say, in reference 70 the enfor cement
OF Canadian rights in the Gulf OF st. Law
renee, that the President does not found
his objection against the action of our
government upon the seizure of vessels
hidden boundaries, but en- tie seizure and
examination OF vessels suspected OF a design to
violate the regulations of the Canadian govern
ment. He states that while a Canadian act per-
mits Of such seizures and examinations the law
has net vet been put in force, and he is resolved
to posf zone action until actual offence has been
given Whether such seizures and examinations
form q necessary part of the police duty OF our
navy - a question for the government to con-
slider. We need hardly say, however, that if
these proceedings are necessary to driving out
ought to be enforced, whatever obiec-
tions may be made by the American
which the President holds out, that Canadian
vessels will be refused admission into American
ports, aud that the bonded system, as IL is called,
under which Canadian merchandise passes
through fle United States, is TO be suspended,
will not have the slightest effect in preventing
the assertion of the Just rights of Canada
in the waters OF the Gulf. The number OF Ca
madam vessels entering American ports is quite
Insignificant. The stoppage OF the bonded sys-
TEN might cause some Inconvenience to iRdivid-
uals in Canada, but it would enormously benefit
the other parties, and the chief injury would
fall upon the American transportation lines.
President Grant may try these measures OF
coercion whenever he likes. He will not cause
the people of Canada TO abate their claims one
jot or title. The President asserts the right
OF the United States to free navigation
of the st. Lawrence. 1t is hardly
worth while to dispute this claim,
whatever rights the American people may
possess to the navigation or the river they GER
tainly have none to the canals along it's banks,
Whenever a request has been made to permit
the passage of an American vessel down the
river it has always been granted, and the Pres
ident can hardly allege. therefore that the
eight States on the lakes OF which he makes SO
much, have been seriously injured iby the de-
ial Of his claim. 1t is in coming up the river
we beg to inform his excellency that the trouble
arises. Perhaps he has never made trip from
Kingston TO Montreal. We assure him tina.
without the use of our own canals the Americans
would obtain wonderfully little advantage from
the free navigation Of the st. Lawrence.

The Levy Court and the C0Iumbla
Turnpike Company.

Tie Judgment Of Forfeiture Of Charter Tacated.
The case of the Levy Court against the CO.
lumbia Turnpike Company was called in the
Circuit Court, Judge Humphreys, yesterday,
when Mr.. Mussey appeared for the Complain
ant, and Messrs. ". D. Davidge and w. Y Fen
dali for defendant. In this case a motion was
of default entered in September, Iy which the
charter OF the turnpike company was vacated
and the road was placed in charge of the Levy
Court.
Nr. Dayidge opened the argument. giving
history of the case, stating that the suit was
brought in the fall of 1870 w the Levy Court in
The name of the United States, for the forfeit

sci Of the corrt (Mr. w s. Cox and explained
TO him the copditiOn OF the road, and the latter
gentleman stated that ii il should be determined
TO press matters further he (Dr. G. would be
notified. In the mean time the road had been
repaired, and in November, 1883, the Levy
Count passed resolution ordering the case to
be stricken from the docket. After the adop-
ton OF this resolution DIR. GuntOn again called
upon the counsel OF the Levy Court. and asked
that the resolution he carried into effect and
the case stricken from the docket. Or. G. was
assured that IL would be, aud in this assurance
be conhded. In September last a judgment by
default was taken against the company. declar-
ing its charter foI feIted, and the first intimation
he lad that the case had not been stricken from
the docket in accordance with the resolution
was the publication OF this fact in the rapers
anu lie argued that the motion should be set
aside ola the ground OF fraud and surprise. Mr..
Davidgc, in support of fls statement, pre-
sented affdavits OF DR.. GUnton and Sir. Cox
Mr.. Muzzy argued AZ some length that the
Levy Court had no power to order the case 10
be dismissed, as IL was brought in the name OF
the nited States and TO dismiss il reQui ed the
action OF the proper United States officers.
Judge HUMPHREYS remarked in granting the
motion that IL was the duty OF the court TO set
aside such judgments on good cause being
shown, and he thought in this case it was clearly
shown that DIR. Gunton had been lulled into Sc
curity by the resolution Of the court and the fs-
surance of the counsel. He would therefore
grant the motion and order the case on the
docket.
