While ALBEIT EDWARD has not shown

nor one TO be COnplaCently regarded as

created for him, both In this country

Of this sympathy, and it would not be

Retrench and Purify.

The matter Of chief interest al Wash
ingtnn for day or two past IS the move
ment on the part Of the more independent
Republicans in the Senate 10 have SP
pointed a Committee on Retrenchment
who shall have ample poWeH TO inveti
gate abuses and corruptiODs in all depart
mens Of the Government Those whC
are specially the partisans Of the Admin
istration appear to be greatly disturbeC
by the proposition, and seek 70 cripplr
the investigation by limiting it TO such
matters as the majority Of the Senate may
see 1T to refer 70 q committee for exam

The praises bestowed on the purity Of
the Administration by Senator'S opposed
70 the investigation do not comPot well
with that opposition. II they are sure
there ia nothing to conceal, the inVeshga'
lion can do the Administration no harm,
It can in no event do the Republican
party any harm. At present our party
suffers from a widespread suspicion that
the heavy defalcatiOns Of Government
officials that have recently come to light
are bat surface indications Of many more
and much greater ones yet concealed,
And the publinwill not be satisfied till
this suspicion is dlssipatCd or confirmed
II the suspicion shall prove 70 be IN
founded, the proof Of it will yindicate
both party and Administration. II con-
fmed, the Administration may suffer, but
the Republican party cannot il it leads in
demanding the investigation. A party
that has the honesty TO expose and punish
It's own thieves will not be discarded. But
the effect on Administration OF party is d
minor consideration. Let the truth be
uncovered and thieves be punished, II
there are any, though the heavens fall.
Any attempt by the friends OF the Ad.

GEORGE ALFRED TOWNSEND recently
visited Utah and wrote some inClsiye let.
tera for the press about the MormOns and
the crusade against them by the Federal
authorities, which have been collected in
n pamphlet by Delegate Hooper. Mr..
Townsend, like most candid travellers who
visit Utah, found the Mormons by no
means so black as painted, and comes TO
the conclusion that II they will get rid Of
polygamy they arc u people to be en-.
COurAged in their present position, as the
only people who have thCefrugality and
unity to keep up the cultivation Of this
desert soil; and agricultural Utah Is now

military operations Of the central cont.

Cials at Salt Lake sharply, and probably
his Callslic sketches Of these personages
and their practices may be somewhat
0ycrdrawn, but they bear the essential
impress OF truthfulncss, and leave the he.
lief that tho late raid upon polygamy has
not only been deSpotiC and cxtrajudicial,
but has been inspired by anything but
wholesome motives. There would, Of
course, be fat picklngs from the wreck, in
case the cxaspcrated Mormons could be
induced TO make an emigration from
Utah; and il appears that our highest
United States Judges there are mixed up
in mining AMI 'other speculations, and
carry the cases growing out Of them to
their own courts for settlement after u
fashion that suggests that they would not
be above making good thing out Of a
Mormon exodus II that can be brought
about by little judicial" pressure.
