I'd DONE At THIa pyFI &
Daily national Republican. (Washington City [D.C.]) 1870-1872, 1872-04-08

In thousand ways, tlIhe erection
Of suburban villas, the laying OF railroads,
the building of factories, the discussion iu
our Legislatures and newspapers and public
meetings Of even iresh projects Of improve
ment aud advancement.
Washington Ia rapidly becoming one Of the
model cities Of the confident. In ten years
her population has been increased by nearly
one third. she ranks as the twelfth city in
the Union In point Of population, and per-
haps the frst in point Of intelligence and
culture. Her society during the winter is
after all the best and the purest In the world.
II is the winter resort Of all that Ia eminent
AMI distinguished In the republic. It is a
well-ordered, respectable city, q city Of
which, as q people, we are no longer
ashamed, aud are fast becoming proud
Americans are at last beginning to look upon
Washington az the capital Of their country,
In which the men of every State and section
have q common interest aud pride. In our
opinion II should be the duty aud the chief
effort Of the pat ty that has done 40 much for the
nation to make the nat IONS capital q special
object Of care and attention. The Federal
capital should be the precious pearl In the
ring OF American capitals. 1t would be an
additional bond Of union and security a per.
pstual protest against the herosy Of States
rlghts-a perpetual argument in favor Of our
union OF states. Washington must be made
the heart and soul aud inspiration ct the
United States, as Rome Ia the inspiration oi
Italy, as Paris is the inspiration Of France
This the Republican party should do for the
capital aud the country.
Daily national Republican. (Washington City [D.C.]) 1870-1872, 1872-04-08

THE New York World think that the lead
ers OF the Cincinnati movement "only need
to be bold" II Is strange that these same
leaders have at all times and under all cir
cumstancss lacked this single quality Of
"bolduess." During the war, Mr.. Greeley,
for Instance, was never bold, except when
"he shouted on to Richmond" lie was per-
petuSlly crying to "let the South go" and
whenever the news Of q great disaster came
he felt like running away to Canada with a
set OF peace propositions. II the World can
make Mr.. Greeley bold now, II will have done
for him something that nature never intended
should be done.
Daily national Republican. (Washington City [D.C.]) 1870-1872, 1872-04-08
Rx.a0y. NEWkLL, OT NEM JERsrI.

The telegraph announces that ex-Gov.
Newell expects To Join the Cincinnati sore
heads. This must be a slander. Il is true
that the Republicans OF his county are dis.
satisfied with the new apportloumont, which
throws them into a hOpelessly Democratic
district the Egypt OF New Jersey, and there
are no doubt tempters to assure him he could
receive the united support Of Liberal" RE-
publcaus aud Democrats; but what care
Democrats, who are-always sure Of four
thousand majority, for the influence Of a
handful VI soreheads1 They would rldlcule
the idea OF giving their best nominations to
any but Democrats. Gov, Newell has done
good work for the Republican party In his
State, and the Republicans In his district have
shown their warm friendship for him by al
ways putting him ahead OF his ticket when
ever he was before the people, aud the report
that he has determined 10 abandon his old
friends, and, with that erolchety malcontent,
James NJ. seoyel, 20 to ClucInnah, must be

Mr.. Blair, the chairman Of the Naval In
vestlgatlng Committee, should feel very much
hattered by the handsome compliment which
Mr. Bartlett and Mr.. Dana paid him last week
In declining to 90 ou with the examination Of
their witnesses or to put 10 their testimony
In his absence. They were sorely troubled
because Mr.. Blair was not present Mr..
Bartlett, particularly, WAS lnconsolable, while
Mr.. Dana was 80 agitated that when, at the
request Of Secretary Robessu, he was put
upon the stand to tell what he knew about
the charges he had made, he lost his memory
complet ely, and could not recollect anything.
Mr.. Dana did not give as an excuse for his
forgetfulness Mr.. Blalr's absence, but no one
doubts that that was the true reason Of the
unfortunate circumstance. II Mr.. Blair had
been present, what might Mr.. Dana not have
told! This involves another proposition :
What could Mr.. Dana have told II Mr.. Blair
had not been present up to the unlucky even
Ing last week.
Mr.. Dana and his couuse made mistake,
we think, lu honoring Mr.. Blair Ia the way
they have houored him. They have said, as
plainly as they could say II, TO the other
members Of the committee, III at they did not
trust them: that they were not ht to be
Judges in the case, or TO pass upon the legality
or admlsslbllity OF the evidence. This we
consider great indlscre lon aud blunder on
the part Of the prose cutlon. Still, Mr.. Dana
and Mr.. Bartlett know th cir own business
best, aud do not require advice or instruction
as to how they should condu Ct their case.
