VERY COMPLETE REPUTATION OF THE GROSS
ATTACK UPON THE PRESIDENT
Especial to the New York Herald
WAsHINeToN, Feb. 10.
In replying to the alleged discrepancies be-
tween the amounts received by the Ordinance
Bureau and those paid in the Treasury, Mr.. Har-
Ian read from the official records OF the depart
ments showing clearly that no such discrepancy
existed. Answering the charge that all the sales
were not stated in the recent report sent to the
House, Mr.. Harlan read the teegraphic bids re-
eeived with the Bureaus endorsements, showing
them TO have been rejected.
Mr. Harlan spoke for nearly two hours and
was followed by Mr.. Frelinghuysen, who, in a
keen and incisive maner reviewed more briefly
the case Mr. Sumner had made. The special
feature of tho Now Jersey Senators effort was a
striking Arrangement of the American Senators
who on the strength Of newspaper dispatches
alleged reports and letters obtained no one knew
how, came into the chamber and made haste
to bring charges affecting the honor OF Amer
lean officials and sought to put the nation in a
disgraceful position where foreign powers might
have plea for apology and indemnity; this, too,
FOR the mere purpose OF setting adopted citizens
against the administration. Mr., Frelinghuysen's
effort created a marked sensation, and was ey-
IDENTIFY felt on both sides OF the chamber.
Especial to the N. Y. Times.l
Mr.. Harlan, in the first place, showed that the
charge that our Government had violated the
International code for neutrals was groundless
unless it was proved that our arms had been
sold to known agents of France, which he refut-
ed. We had right to sell to our own citizens
and there was nothing in the law to preclude
the selling of arms either to France or Germany
by our citizens, they taking, OF course, the risks
Of seizure. No one disputes that these posi-
tons are properly taken; but Messrs. Sumner
and Schurz insist that our Government should
have investigated every bid to see that the arms
bought should not find their way even indirectly
into the hands of belligerents.

rHF MARCH MAGAZINES.

Welcome the monthly messengers of litera-
ture, science and art The magazines OF March
arc here
The Galazy reaches us, first. There are sew
oral noticeable articles. De Forests sketch
Of a colored member of a Southern Legislature
is in doubtful taste, and its fidelity to truth may
be challenged at several points. With these
executions, it is meritorious. The other prom
inent articles are an excellent one on "Corea;"
statement of Hon. Jerry Blacks opinion of the
Eric War, and second paper on "Tyler's Ad-
ministration," which ia interesting and enter
tanning. Bayard Tayler has fine poem, " The
Accolade." Anthony Trollope's serial, " The
Fustaee Diamonds" progresses slowly General
Custer tells us about Life on the Plains" and
tina ex-shakeress adds another chapter or two OF
her experiences in " Wisdom's Valley"
One of the chief features of LiPpiacotfs
MAGAZINE, for several months has been the ser
les Of papers from Prof Whymper's "Scrambles
in the Alps They are exciting and delightful
sketches of mountain adventure, and the illus
trations that accompany them are quaint,ple
ing, and Of high artistic excellence. The only
discount upon the value of the papers is that
they presuppose too intimate familiarity on the
part of the reader with the minute details OF
Alpine scenery and the habits and customs Of
Alpine life Another feature of Lipptncoa, OF
late is its attention to the characteristics of life
in the States south of Philadelphia A Mr..
Elder,writes charming sketch of Country Life
in Virginia. " 1t is in the same vein as a
previous paper, and we admire stongly its pleas
ing style, while we pardon the folly of some Of
its views, born and bred in the ohidays Of dark
ness The declaration that the rearing of the
negro children, with all the aid Of free schools,
will prove much less profitable to body and
soul than was the unlettered but wholesome
ttutelage of slavery" and similar absurdities
will only provoke smile. Earl Shinn concludes
his valuable description of the Academy of Fine
Arts, and view of the proposed new building,
from the plans OF the architect, is presented.
Altogether, this is fine lnumber of LtPpincoa
for we leave unnoticed several excellent articles.

coRRupTroNs IN THE SOUTH.

The disturbances, disorders, and corruptions
Of which we have have heard SO much, in the
Southern States, are just as natural a result Of
the war as ashes and cinders are the consequence
Of fire. When the Slavery Seeessionists fred on
Fort Sumter. they entailed on their beautiful
section not only the punishments of bloody
conflict, but the penalty Of disorganized, de-
moralzed society existing after the conflict
closed. Every corruption, therefore, which
taints the Southern air is sin at the door Of the
rebels who made war upon the Union.
But, even beyond this, it seems that the bad
practices Of some of the Legislatures, the brib-
cry, the dishonesty, the lawless contention, are
in many cases directly chargeable to the old
slayehodng arstocracy. The poorer men,
the white men OF lower CASTE and the
colored people, have been bribed and bought by
the ex-rebels themselves. 1t is true that many
have been corrupted, but it appears that the
tempters were the genteel, proud, heightened
blue-blooded leaders who plunged the country
into a bloody war OF four years, and who now
seek, by the vile means We have stated, to re
gain their old control This fact is shown by the
testimony taken recently before the Committee
on Southern 0utrages and will be shown in the
report soon to be submitted to Congress. The
extent to which the proceeding was carried ia
amazing, and the effrontery with which the br
bers defended their wrong-doing is equally 80.
