CHAIRMANSHIP OF THE COMMITTEE
ON FOREIGN RELATIONS.

From the NJ Y. World
The disgraceful history of Mr.. Summers
removal has called off public attention rom
the still more disgraceful character of the
appointment made in his place. Compare
the pecuniary integrity of the man put out
with that of the man put in. At no time in
the history of our country did its honor or its
interests demand so clearly as now that the
character of the chairman of the Committee
on Foreign Relations should be above sus-
picion. The questions between the United
States and Great Britain have led to the
unusually grave step of appointing Joint
High Commission, whose proceedings are now
looked upon with interest by the civilized
world. The British Government has sent
here noblemen of high rank and states
men of skill and character. The CON-
mission is to discuss the gravest ques-
tions of international law, and matters
deeply affecting our national honor and inte-
rest. Diplomacy never dealt with problems
more delicate or more far-reaching in their
consequences. The treaty making power is
in fact in the Senate Upon these questions
the chairman of the Committee of Foreign
Relations in that body is the foremost man.
He is the central figure so far as Congress is
concerned. He is put forward TO meet the
noble and distinguished men of the British
commission. Is Simon Cameron a fit man to
hold that place? What has been his charac
ter, from early life down to the day he left
the Office of Secretary of War in disgrace

blacken him are made only by political enc

THE PITTsBURG AND CONNELLSvILLE
RAILROAD.

From the Baltimore Sun.
The difficulties with which that very i'm
portant branch of the railroad connections
of Baltimore, the Pittsburg and Connellsville
Railroad, has had to contend must be fresh
in the recollection of all our readers. 1t will
be remembered that the municipality of Balti-
more originally loaned a million of dollars to
the work, the whole line of which, as pro-
jected, from Cumberland, on the Baltimore
and Ohio Railroad, to Pittsburg, is distance
of 149 miles. After the construction of fifty
eight miles of the road, from Pittsburg east
ward, in which the means raised upon the
credit of this city were used, it came to
halt, and made no progress during the war,
its advantages, during the interval, of course
inuring exclusively to Pittsburg and the
limited section thus getting an outlet to that
point. Meantime persistent and protracted
efforts were made both in the Legislature
and courts of Pennsylvania by antagonistie
Pennsylvania interests (the Pennsylvania
Central Railroad, in fsct) to yacate the char
ter, on account of the failure to complete the
road; but these, after long fight in both the
Legislature and Courts, were successfully re-
sisted, mainly by the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad Company. Having got through this
contest, 1t became necessary to cast about
for means TO complete the work, and about
two years ago these directly interested in it
at Pittsburg came to Baltimore, and joining
with the large interests here which fully ap-
preciated the great practical value of the
measure, urged the, city authorities to waive
its first lien, the principal and accrued inte-
rest of the loan, then amounting to about
