eer, they were subdued.

lowed with other surgeons short time

lowing was horrid in the extreme. The

The Farrngut statue,

The resolution adopted in Congress to erect
q monument to the memory Of the great naval
captain Of the republic will give satisfaction
to every loyal American. 1t is however,
desirable. that 1t shall be worthy Of the people
who erect 1t, and of him whose virtue and
courage it commentaries. We think that
proposals of this nature ought to be made in
Congress without being associated with the
name of any individual artist. To honor such
man as Farragut it is necessary that the
best ability Of the nation should be employed,
and 1t is only by throwing the work open to
competition that this can be done. An
effort was made by the friends Of Mr..
Stone to have this gentleman appointed to
carry out the work, but, fortuna tey, the
friends Of Miss Winnie Ream succeeded in
defeating the attempt, and Congress has
resolved to leave the matter open to compete
ton. We are informed that models will be re-
ceived in January next from such artists as
desire to enter the lists. This decision is
right but Congress ought to go little fur
ther, aud issue general invitation to
American sculptors to send in designs
under certain regulations. Our artists should
at once be informed what amount oil
money has been set aside to erect
the statue and the scale upon which the
models are to be constructed, as otherwise
there will be no fair and sufficient means OF
comparing the different designs. We have
right to demand that equal justice shall be
done in this matter, for 1t concerns the nation.
There are interests to be consulted besides
those of Mr.. Stone or Miss Ream, and we
think that the claims Of other American
sculptors who are better known to the art
world, If not to the Washington lobby, than
either of the artists who have been mentioned
in this connection, ought to be considered.
There have been already too many JOBS in art
about the Capitol, and it is time that merit
sbould have some recognition. Congress will,
therefore, do well to issue general invitation
to the artists 70 compete, furnishing them WITH
such Information as to time and conditions NJ
may be necessary. We want such statue
erected to the memory Of the gallant Earragut

sour CoUYTRYaAN, CARL SoHURz. "A
number of the German newspapers published
in Germany and primed by interested letter
writing fatherlanders in Washington have of
late taken to praislng ''the great Missouri
Senator, our countryman Carl Schurz." The
French arms middle affords an opportunity
for the theme. 1t is not 80 much love for

motives that this forelga puffery Is INDUCED
in. There Is too mach method Ia this lauda-
ton OF 'the grea. Missouri Senator to be

The CENTRAL UNDERGROUND RAILROAD
HUMBUG BILL was yesterday ordered to o
third reading in the Assembly. In the Senate
the same measure was reported from the COM
mittee adversely, and the report was laid on
the table. R. /. P. It is optional with the
Senate whether 1t is ever resurrected or not.
Wehave no fear of their action in the premises,
Notwithstanding the pressure of the lobby.
Representing the State, the Senator'S also
represent the metropolis, and they know
full well that 1T is their duty to
endorse the recommendation of their commit
tee. The bill is too palpably Ubiquitous for
the serious consideration of conscientious
legislators. Rapid transit is lmperatively de-
handed by our citizens, and any dilly daily
ing with it by their representatives will be
remembered All the wild and visionary
schemes now before the Legislature should
be squelched at once, and the remaining days
of the session, after the charter is damned or
adopted, be devoted to the consideration of
bill for the construction Of two viaduct rail-
roads by the city. This is the only solution of
the rapid transit problem.

THE SENATE OF THE UNITED STATES has
declared in favor of repeating the duty on tea
and coffee. This will not only greatly reducs
the cost of these necessary articles, but will
insure the sale of purer articles. The mil
llonnaire who buys the best in the market,
regardless Of expense, will care nothing for
ing man and to all the poorer classes. Will
the House Of Representatives, under the
pressure of the lobby, refuse this concession
to the people?

The Cause Of tue People.

The United States Senate, by the en-
phatic vote of twenty-eight in the
affirmative to eleven in the negative, has
declared In favor of the abolition of the
income tax and of all the harassing and OF.
pressing taxes imposed on necessary articles
of consumption by the Internal Revenue act
of 1864, leaving duties only on banks and
bankers spirits liquors, snuff, tobacco and
cigars. This affords direct relief to the poorer
classes and devotes to their immediate benefit
some of the advantages Of the national pros
perity secured by their efforts and sacrifices
In the war Of the rebellion, instead OF grinding
them down under an undue load Of taxation
pressure speed. The people of the United
States now ask whether the popular branch of
Congress, the House of Representatives, will
defeat the good work done by the Senate and
refuse them these great boous? Let the vote
of every Representative be marked, so that it
may be known where the responsibility rests
If the Senate tariff law should be defeated.
The fight is between the people and the special
interests of capitalists. Every Representa-
tive who may vote against the Senate amend
meuts votes against tightening the most OPP
pressive burdens Of the great mass Of the
people in order to protect special interests
and to add to the wealth OF monopolists.
THE CoNeREssMEN from New York should
be unit ia favor of the Senate tariff amend
ments abolishing the income tax, the duties on
tea, coffee, gas, &c., and the lessening Of the
duties on woollens, cottons, iron, earthenware,
glassware, &c. We shall be careful to let the
constituencies of New York know the names
OF their Representatives who may vote against
these propositions for the relief Of the people.

credit to the administra ton of General Grant
We have thought that 1t would have been a
wiser policy, as far as the interests and pro-
gress of the country are concerned, to have
raised a smaller revenue and to have left
more Of the debt to be paid in the future, when
the wealth, population and resources of the
nation will be greater and the burden less
felt, and, we have no doubt, the credit of the
government would have been as well estab.
lished.
England pays very little Of the principal of
her enormous debt, which is nearly twice as
large as ours. and there is no expectation that
the whole will ever be paid; yet her credit
stands very high, her three per cent securi-
ties being worth nearly as much in the market
as our six per cents. 1t is not 80 much the
amount of the principal of the debt paid that
strengthens the credit of the government as
the certainty Of paying the interest and the
fixed character of the securities. Nothing
more is needed than a comparatively small
and undisturbed sinking fund with regular
payment of interest to maintain the credit
OF the government. Indeed, the less the bur
den Of taxation is, and, as consequence, the
greater the industrial development and pro-
grass, the higher will the credit of
country rise. England is a striking example
OF this fact. While, therefore, the policy of
the administration in raising unnecessarily an
enormous revenue. or, rather, the policy of
the Secretary Of the Treasury, to which the
President has merely assented, may serve A
political purpose, it is not sound in principle
and ought to be abandoned as soon as the
Presidential election settles the succession for
the next four years. Had Mr. Boutwell, been
more intent on promoting the interests of the
country than his own ambition, and had
not the dominant party studied the Immediate
political effect Of paying the debt 50 rapidly,
the people might have been relieved Of many
Of the taxes they now have to bear.
This session Of Congress, must soon end.
