A Snap at the Civil servicers.
Mr.. Snapp offered a resolution that COM

called a report, TO the President, recon-
mending a set Of rules for the examination
of applicants for Office, and declaring it in

adopted, and that they don't meet the ap

ferred to Committee Of the Whole.
Too Much Protection.
Mr.. MAYNARD, from the Committee on
Ways and Means, reported bill permitting
the Calcasieu Sulphur and Mining Com
pany of New Orleans TO import free of duty
certain machinery and accompanying i'm
plaments, to be used only in making a Sc
res Of experiments in mining for sulphur in
the parish Of Calcasieu, Louisiana, the
value of the importation not to exceed
$4,000, and also permitting a like impOrta-
ton of machinery by any persons employed
in the manufacture Of plate glass in the
United States.
Mr.. Maynard explained briefly the object
of the bill, which was to enable large sui
phur deposits at Calcasieu parish, La, to
be reached through heavy boring Of sand and
gravel, and to allow company in Indiana to
establish plate glass manufaCtOry, being the
only one Of the kind in the United States.
He stated that the bill would meet the
unanimous approval Of the Committee of
Ways and Means.
Mr.. Finkleuburg opposed special legisla-
ton as wrOn in principle. The House
should 60 to the bottom Of the evil and make
such reduction of the tariff as the revenues
and trade Of the country would permit.
Mr.. Maynard apOlOgized for an incorrect
statement made, and said he had not pro-
posed to 90 into the tariff debate on this
bill. The bill provides merely for excep-
tional cases. They were exceptions which
proved the rule.
Mr.. Kerr concurTed in all that Mr.. Fink
lenburg said except the inSinuation that the
two Industries concerned were powerful,
and that by reason Of that power they had
been enabled to secure favorable recon-
mcndatiOn.
Mr.. Dawes deprecated this premature
discussion. The Committee on Ways and
Means was endeavoring to see if it were
possible so to reduce the revenues of the
conntry by the amount of fifty or one hun
dred million dollars, more or less, consist
emily with the current expenses of the Gov
ernment, and with paying a portion of the
public debt so as on the one hand not to
stay and on the other hand to value and

iOus Charges against Attorney
General Bates.

SIT LAKE, Jan. 1.-THE grand jury
presented documents to the court to-day,
making serious charges against United
States District Attorney Bates, now on his
way to Washington. 1t seems that wit
nesses had come voluntarily
from a great distance to tes-
tify concerning the murder of DR.. Robinson,
aud Judge Mexican ordered the case to be
investigated Immediately, as three Nor
mons are imprisoned charged with the
crime. One grand juror has been lacking
a quorum until to-day. The grand jury
came into court to report they
are willing to do their duty without
charge that the District Attorney has d.
rccted absent jurors to stay away is con-
trary to their expressed wishes; and he
has told the jury to adjourn and not inves-
tiGate the Robinson murder. The jury re-
fused to adjourn without an order of the
Court, and the Court refused to order an
adjournment.
Federal officers aud Gentilps generally
condemn the course of Mr.. Bates on this
and other matters as very damaging to the
government and loyal citizens. The Nor
mons declare unhesitatingly that they hope
for much from Mr. Bates

The correspondent, of the New York Her

The correspondent Of the New York Her
aid describes Mr.. Flanagan of Texas and his
late speech upon amnesty, as follows:
'Mr. Flanagan is-well, he is himself; he
is unique-an elderly man, clad like some de-
cent stock farmer; he brings the manners and
vernacular of that grade into the Senate
Chamber. There was no argument IN what
he said and less connection, for his sentences
were ''jerked out" and flung together rather
than uttered decently and in order. His pro-
nunciaton is of the most improved SCUM,
western type, for the Senator said "thar'
"whar, "Younited States and similar laoial
c riosi'ias He addressed Senators familiar
ly, speaking of the dignGed senior from Mas
sachusetts as sumner, and the grave and
decoroas Ohio Senator as Thurman. he-
terring TO the latters denial of ever being a
secsssionist, the Texan declared that the
democracy would not give stable room to
any one who was not a secessionist.' lie
spoke another time of y. II. Stephens as "the
skeleton" and thought sit was doubtful If he
would ever die" He wanted amnesty and
would vote for the Sumner amendment, on
the principle that the woman took the man
who importuned her in order to get rid OF
him Thus the Senator proceeded, i'll ram

sional touches of humor, which made his nom
sense. in part, endurable.'

IN HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVE
GRANT AND COLF4.I.

The sentiment of the republican party
in favor OF the denomination Of Grant and
Colfax is SO strong that the opposition APP
pears insignificant. The representation
which is made in the opposition papers
that their supporters are only the office
holders is not true. Among the masses
of the people the opinion is established
that this administration has conducted the
affairs OF the government honestly and
successfully. There is no man who can
unite the republican party rs Grant can.
There is none in whom republicans repose
more confidence. In the critical and diff
ticnlt relations existing between the GOV
eminent and the southern States. there is
need of steady and strong hand at
Washington. 1t is felt that the South have
a wholesome respect for Grant. which
enables him to hold in check with the
least possible strain the elements that dis
turb society in those States and demand
the interference of the government His
name keeps down disorder. WhenIt does
break out he understands how TO deal with
il.
Then in the half reconstructed cond.-
ton of the South, there is danger of losing
all by Il change in the administration. In
the rebellion it was wise to continue
Abraham Lincoln President a second term.
in order to establish that there should be
no change in the policy of the govern
ment, as we'll as to avoid the taking of an
inexperienced man for President in crit
ical state of affairs. At the end of another
term reconstruction will be completed il
Grant and ColfaX are elected, and then
new men may be taken and new meas
ures will engage the attention of the coun-
try. Now Reconstruction is incomplete.
and the attitude of the South in relation to
the general government, also the condi-
ton of the people Of that section in regard
to the maintenance of equal rights, pro-
lection for life and property, freedom of
speech and political action, are among the
gravest questions that will enter into the
pending Presidential contest.
The nomination of Charles Sumner by a
sorehead republican paper falls dead upon
the country. The press of Massachusetts
has not a word to say for the movement.
The acknowledged great ability and SER
vices of tho distinguished Senator cannot
lift his name into the faintest competition
with Grant for the Presidency. Senator
Schurz keeps up his dissatisfaction, but
accomplishes nothing. The recent mar
shaling of the Liberal Republic ans" in
Missouri shows that there is flutering in
the camp in that State requiring stmu-
lants to inhame new courage. Every
where the republicans are concentrating
upon Grant and Colfax. There is no mis-
taking the popular demand for their re-
nomination, Notwithstanding that few
disatlccted persons oppose it and cndeay
OF to cast discredit upon it 10y pronouncinc

The first appearance of John Sherman and
Schuyler Cotax upon the political stage was,
it seems, at the Philadelphia Convention that
nominated Gen. Taylor. Sherman was recon-
mended for Secretary of the Convention by
an Ohio delegate, who humorously added
that if elected to that position it would be in
all probability the only office the young gen.
tleman would ever hold, as he came from a
hopeless democratic district. Shortly after,
an Indiana delegate nominated another Secre-
tary and made similar speech concerning
him. and he was chosen, and Schuyler Colfax
and John Sherman met each other and shook
hahos Tor the first time at the Secretarys
desk.
