ACCIDENTs.-'TiS true, beyond all qucs-
ton, that troubles, accidents, evils and
blessings, mostly come in seasons like UNI
to the appearance Of spring and summer
autumn and winter. AS some one has
m~etaphorically said: 'Troublcs never
come singly, but in batallions," Within
the last few weeks five accidents have oc-
Cured in this county, and they all bear Il
likeness to one another. IIu. Fitzpatrick
was dangerously injured by a fall, but, we
are glad to say, has nearly recovered. W,
S. johnson is still confined to bed from the
effects of Il fall. Tom. Arledgc, we arc
happy to say, is ION the mend" but it
was thought he could not survive the inju-
ries received by falling from the roof OF
Col. Jesse Arledge's mill. John Moore,
Esq; fell from Il house and was severely
hurt, and a Mr.. Groves, miller tor j. w.
Estill on the mountain. fell a few days
since and was instantly killed, his brains
being scattered upon the rocks that re-
ceivcd him. We do not remember to have
known so many accidents of a similar
character in our county.

The Lato Crisis i'm France-Ths Presi-
dent and tho Ministers Reconciled.

The Lato Crisis i'm France-Ths Presi-
dent and tho Ministers Reconcilcd.
Our news this morning regarding the situa-
ton in France encourages the belief that, for
the present, the crisis is ended. On Sunday
two Cabinet Councils were held, and the sit
tings were protracted. After full deliberation
upon the situation the President agreed to
continue at the helm of affairs if the Ministers
would withdraw their designations. This,
considering the difficulties which might arise
in the event of the resignation Of the Presi-
dent, the Ministers consented to do and SO,
for the moment, at least, the calamity which
seemed impending has been averted. The
general prospect is somewhat clouded by the
report that General Ducrot has been sum-
moned to Versailles to reply to certain
charges which have been made against him.
The General is known to be an imperialist; and
it is charged against him that he had his troops
in readiness to act against the government in
the event of a crisis, and that he had issued
circulars to the gendarmerie in his district
instructing them to make inquiry into the
political opinions of the inhabitants. In the
present state Of affairs in France there is great
temptation to man like Ducrot to undertake
the role of Monk and to attempt restoration.
According to the Debats the important COM
mana which General pycgot holds is not Esass-
Surfing to those who fear coup dfta. If
President Theirs is strong enough he
ought to take his command from Ducrot
at once. If he is not strong enough or
daring enough to do SO it is because he
believes that the army is with the Empire. 1t
is dangerous to dismiss man like Ducrot and
it is dangerous to retain him in power One
great difficulty has been got over; but it is
impossible that such nondescript govern
ment as that Of M. Theirs can long control
great nation like France. government
which exists by sufferance had better be
moved out of the way at once.

Who SHALL THE ELEcrons VoTr For p
The Democratic National Committee held
meeting yesterday in this city, and announce
through their Chairman, Mr.. Augustus Schell,
that they do notregard it as within the scope
Of their delegated authority TO advise the
electors of the States which favored tho cleo
ton Of the Baltimore candidates as to the
course they should pursue in view Of the
death of Horace Greeley. The situation is a
novel one, and it is not deemed advisable to
establish precedent in case for which
future national conventions will probably pro-
vide. Meanwhile, the suggestions Of outside
parties are numerous. One paper advises the
electors to vote for O'Conor and Adams,
dropping Crate Brown, while the use of the
name of Charles Francis Adams, Senator
Hendricks. Judge Davis or Lyman Trumbull
is proposed by others. The majority approve
o unanimous vote for President Grant or the
casting Of blank for the first Office.

A Noble Proposition from Mr.. Sumner.

n NOOA0 ETOpOsAtAOn HUN MTs sumner
Senator Sumner struck chord of generous
and lofty patriotism yesterday that will vibrate
throughout the whole country and give addi-
tional lustre to his fame. Immediately after
the Senate had convened, and while waiting
for the Presidents Message, Mr.. Sumner in
troduced bill to strike from the United States
flags and the Army Register all records of bat
ties fought with fellow citizens. The Romans
in the most glorious period of their history did
not celebrate victories in civil war where Ro-
mans fought against Romans, and were de-
sirous to efface the memory of such fratricidal
conflicts. This is noble sentiment, and was
both Characteristic and worthy of that great
people. Why should American citizens wish to
perpetuate the emblems and records Of our
national misfortune Why keep alive the
hatred that was engendered by the civil war
when the combatants are and must continue
TO be one people2 To do so would be
unchristian-like, ungenerous and highly i'm
politio II would serve no good purpose

PRESIDENT GRANTS MESSAGE rs SILENT on
the subject Of amnesty. Probably he believes
that pardoning has gone far enough and that
any ex-rebels now disfranchised may be re-
stored TO their civil rights for the asking. But
The President expresses his regret that any ne
cessity should have existed for the execution
bf the Enforcement act and his hope that the
necessity OF applying it may never again arise
At the same time be signifies his determine
zion to put down ell attempts to interfere with
the rights of citizens to vote, wherever they
may be made. Let the South stop the Ku
Klux and the President will stop the Enforce
pent act. A fair bargain for both sides.
The New York herald. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1840-1920, 1872-12-03

Yesterday at noon the last session of the
Forty-second Congress convened in the Capt.
toll of the country. There is very little senti-
ment now attaching to these gatherings, in
whose results SO much of the fate of the
nation lies. 1t is, therefore, worthy of note
that the first step taken by the House of Rep
resentatives was q joint resolution of regret
for the death of the great journalist and states
man whose mortal remains are lying for the last
few hours above earth in this city. In unani-
mously honoring Horace Greeley Congress
performs a worthy action, and one which,
while showing that the bitternesses of Presi-
dental campaign do not lie very deep in the
national character, will, we hope, tend to
soften the asperities of such contests in flu
ture Mr.. Cox, in making restitution to the
deceased, made some very feeling remarks,
creditable to his culture and sensibilities.
In the Senate piece of sentiment, too,
opened the proceedings. in the presentation
by Mr.. Wilson, Vice-President elect, of o bill
for the relief of the sufferers by the Boston
fire. Having sent this to committee, the work
Of the session commenced with Senator Sum-
ner laying before that body his plan of civil
service reform and the battle-fag resolution.
Speaker Blaine, in the House, resigned the
chair to Mr.. Cox. in order to present resolu-
ton asking for a committee of inquiry into the
Credit Mobilier scandal with which he and
other grave legislators were charged in the
heat OF the canvass. A constituencies to per-
sonal reputation is no doubt at the bottom of
this resolution, and for the satisfaction of
knowing whether our most trusted and
honored legislators are honest or otherwise it
may be vaguely profitable; but the question
may well be asked, now that the heat Of the
fight is over, and tho battle won into which
this and other scandals were vainly introduced
as engines of war, whether it is worth while
spending the money Of the people and the
time of Congress in deciding Mr.. Blaine's
pecuniary approachability or the contrary.
In refusing to accept the resignation Of Gen.
eral Banks the House paid marked compli-
ment to that gentleman, which is and may be
variously interpreted, but which preserves its
complimentary character nevertheless. Not
withstanding the ''era Of good feeling" indi-
cations ore plentiful that party lines are about
to be closely drawn by the majority, and this
will, Of course, lead to qualification of the
heterogeneous opposition. With the great
legislative machine thus pleasantly in working
order, and a national campaign four years of,
let it be hoped that our representatives will
settle to the nations business without more
ado.

motion for stay of proceedings in the case of

who is sentenced to be executed in Brooklyn

there may be revival of justice. and that our

be worked of at last. In that event peaceable

The Exhibit or tho Secretary OF tn,
Treasury.

The Exhibit OF tho Secretary OF the
Treasury.
It appears from the report of the Secretary
of the Treasury that the resources Of the gov
eminent remain overwhelmingly abundant,
though Congress has abolished many taxes.
The gross receipts have exceeded the estimates
and have kept the Treasury gorged with sur
plus, unnecessary and Improbable capital.
The total net receipts for the year ending June
80, 1872, amounted to 1914, 1O6,867. Out of
this $216, 37O.2S6 was from customs and
$3.50, 642, 1T was from internal revenue. The
net ordinary expenditures, including $117,-
357, 839 for interest on the public debt, were
1910, 559, sos. This leaves for current ex-
penses, exclusive Of the interest on the debt,
$153, 191, 1854. There has been raised, then,
hundred millions by taxation over
the amount necessary to carry on the govern
ment, including the interest on the debt and
the enormous expenditure of more than q
hundred and ffty-three millions for the sew
eral departments. The balance went for the
redemption of the principal Of the national
debt. We are told that q fraction less than q
hundred millions, or, in figures, 500, $50, 253
was applied to that purpose. But notwith-
standing that, as we have said, the Treasury
remains gorged with surplus money. The
sum of hundred and ffty-three millions for
current and ordinary expenditures, exclusive Of
interest on the public debt is far too large
for times of peace. It is double the amount
expended before the war. But admitting this
enormous expenditure, why should the people
be taxed now hundred millions year in
addition to paying the principal of the debt?
fourth of that amount would be ample
The credit Of the government would stand
as high by paying twenty-five millions a
year as by paying hundred millions. 1t is
unjust and unreasonable to ask the present
generation, which has borne the brunt and
cost of the war, to pay more. Succeeding
generations, when the country will be more
populous and much richer, ought to bear q
portion ofthe burden and would be better able
to bear it. The Secretary Of the Treasury
seems to be intent on keeping up burdensome
taxation for the purpose of liquidating the
debt rapidly and for the qualification Of hay
ing q plethoyic treasury. He does not consider
that such vast revenue and surplus amount
in his hands are the greatest temptation to
extravaganza. Taxes might be reduced
seventy-fve millions, at least, and then leave
an ample fund for the redemption of the debt
besides liberal provision for the necessary
expenditure of the government. There are
other matters in the report Of the Secretary Of
the Treasury which we shall consider at
another time. The principal feature is that
relating to the revenue and expenditure and
the policy indicated with regard to them.

In view Of the annoying complications that
might have occurred had Horace Greeley been
elected by the people and died before the
Presidential electors had cast their votes. the
Cincinnati Enqairer asserts that "this whole
Electoral College machinery should be abol-
ished and the people vote directly through
the several States for President and Vice
President Then, if the popular choice should
happen to die before his Inauguration, the
Office would fall where it constitutionally de-
volves-upon the Vice President who is elected
with q view to such result" We are certain
to make this change sooner or later, and Con-
gress at its present session should take the
initiative steps necessary TO alter the pro-
visions Of the constitution regulating the
mode Of electing the President and Vice Presi-
dent
