OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.
WASHINGTON, Dec. ]


"BRuTus SAYS HE WAS AMBITIOUS"
The spectacle now presented by United
States Senator'S who are anxious to turn
the wheel ofpolitical preferment, that they
may come to the top in the approach
ing national election, is another proof
that the old Adam Of selishness is still
strong in man. Messrs. Trumbull, Schurz
and Upton, i'll the Senate caucus, yester-
day, made such a special pleading against
the Grant administration, that even some
of the consistently honorable Democrats
have openly expressed disgust at their
course. The firebrand resolution of Trum-
bull was voted down in caucus, and yet he
and Schurz, supported it there, remained
in the caucus, and no bolt was made ex-
cept by Senator Upton. AS these gentle
men are honorable men," it was but fair
to conclude that, having remained in the
caucus after it extinguished the firebrand,
they would abide its decision in quiet. But
the rules Of consistency have ever failed to
govern greatness, and hence the firebrand
business was Immediately transferred from
the caucus to the Senate again, where it
was relighted by these gentlemen, with the
aid OF Democratic Senators, whose interest
it is to fan the flames of discord.
Senator Schurz, for whose benefit bill
is introduced authorizing an amendment to
the constitution, making foreigners eligible
10 the Presidency, il most conspicuous III
attacking the Grant administration. Sure
ly these are most honest and honorable
men, and need higher offices.
UTAH REFORMING.
Delegate Hooper has postponed his re-
49, TtoI
There are indications that the Mormon pro-
lition of polygalny by the Mormons, provi-
ded, that the creation Of the new State oil
Deseret is allowed to take the place Of the
present territory on equitable principles.
The pamphlet of Gov. Alfred Townsend,
letting daylight upon the operations IN
Utah, will have beneficial effect IN getting
for the Mormons fair play from Congress
in the settlement Of their troublesome
question. He tells Mr.. Hooper, plainly,
that polygamy must be abandoned or Utah
will be.
RETRENCrdENT.
The envelope manufacturers did not like
the economy Of the government in making
envelopes and selling cheaper than the
trade can furnish them. This is, perhaps,
one of the evidences which the Democrats
and their aids would like to boot at as ON
imposition and fraud on the people. Inc
+. manufacturers are making strong effort e
get Congress to charge ten per cent. proili
on the envelopes made by the government.

branch of the Democracy to hold up the
hands of sore-head opposition, but the
boldness Of the offer of assistance is still
worthy of special remark. This new edi-
ton of Tammany bribery and corruption
thus coolly makes an offer to recalcitrant
Republicans, at the close of the article re-
ferred to: "Push every investigation, and,
if it is stiflcd, impeach the betrayers of the
peoples trust. Your duty is yoiT interest.
Then do it.
This is true Tammany logic, because il Is
your interest to pull down your own party
of progress therefore, you should do IL.
Your individual interest is presumed to
be paramount with you as with them,
and hence Tammany corruption proposes
to make it your interest to work for a
place beside their reeking rottenness and
the shameful death to which they have been
consigned by an outraged country.
MISCELLANEOUS.
1t is alleged that four of the nine mem
bers of the Ways and Means Committee
are committed to reduction Of the tax on
tobacco to l6 cents per pound. This is be-
ginning at the wrong end Of reducing the
revenue. IL should be confined at present
to tax and duties on articles af actual USE
fulness and necessity, instead Of those
which are better for being discouraged by
taxing them out of use, if such were pos
sible. c.. NJ.
