CONGRESS-.

In the Senate on Wednesday O. last
week the Chicago Relief bill was taken
up, and after some debate the bill as re-
ported by the Finance Committee was
passed-yeas 20, nays II. The Tariff bill
was then taken up, and after some de.
bate the Senate went into executive
session, and soon after adjourned.
In the House the Post.offi ce appro.
priation bill was taken up in Committee
OF the whole; after long discussion the
amendment giving the Pacific Mail
Steamship Company s1,OOO,OOO as a
subsidy for carrying the China and
Japan mails was defeated by vote of
92 nays to 81 yeas. An amendment pro.
hibiting employees of the department
acting as agent or attorneys for the pro-
secution of claims within two years af-
ter leaving Office, was agreed to. The
committee then rose, and the bill as
amended was passed.
La the Senate, on Thursday Of last
week the Tariff bill Was discussed.
In the House, the ar my appropriation
bill appropriating $29, 9,54S,797 was con.
sidered but not disposed of.
In the Senate on Friday, the bill to
enable honorably discharged soldiers
and sailors, or their widows, to acquire
homesteads on the public lands was
taken up and passed. The Senate then
resumed the discussion on the Tariff
bill, aud after some talk put tea and
coffee on the free list by vote of 80
yeas to 13 nays. In the House nothing
was done, it being private bill day.
In the Senate on Monday, after the
introduction of bills and the reception of
reports from the several committees,
the bills reported by the Committee on
Commerce We're taken up and passed /;
but pending bill to facilitate commerce
with China, Japan, aud other countries
in Asia, the Senate adjourned
In the House little or nothiug was
done. A bill securing homesteads on
the public landsto honorably discharg.
ed soldiers and sailors, their wild.
ows and minor children, was passed.
Also, authorizing the Secretary of the
Navy to contract for a statue, to be
erected in Washington, of the late
Admiral Farragut, at cost not to ex-
eeed $4,000.
Nothing of moment transpired in
either House on Tuesday. The Tariff
bill was debated in the Senate aud
railroad bill was fought over in the
House.

THAT pure and disinterested politi-
clan Simon Cameron, whose dove.like
innocence and freedom from guile are
familiar TO the people of this State, is
reported to have made speech recently
in which he used the following remark
able language:
"About the only pleasure, and GER
tainly The only profit have ever had
from being in the Senate, was that once
in while could take up some lonely
creature and be instrumental In putting
him or her into place where he or she
would be independent of the world for
the time being"
We know of nothing more sad in the
history of modern lawmakers than the
total want of appreciation which has
attended this Christian and charitable
Cameron. After profitless years spent
in the Senate-profitless save In the re.
ward which virtue always confers upon
its followers-this good aud gentle man
whose aim has been to succor the unfor.
tunate and aid the needy, has only sue.
ceeded In acquiring q reputation as an
INSCRIPTIONS schemer and willy dema.
gogue with whom the end has always
justified the means. 1t Is too late now
for the world to do him justice, but in
the world TO come what rewards will
not be his.

The Signs that Wise Men Heed.

The lesson of the political situation
should be full of instruction TO the Re-
publican party. The selection by the
Philadelphia Convention of a Presi-
Dental candidate other than Gen. Grant
would at once dissolve the hostile CON-
bination which is closing around him.
The danger of the disruption of the
party would thus be wholly avoided /;
its success would be assured. 1t is evil
dent he has lost much ground with the
people within the last few weeks. The
revelations of Custom. house frauds, the
scandal of the sale of arms to the
French, the fastening of the grossest
corruptions upon grave Senators, as well
as upon legislative clerks, and the VIC.
lent TRADES of his friends from the ma.
tional forum and through the press
upon those who conscientiously differ
with them have all seriously weakened
his popularity, even though in none OF
the cases mentioned need 1t be affirmed
that he is personally implicated. With
all the disadvantages under which he
would labor as candidate 1t does seem
the height Of folly longer to press his
name, though all the eustom.houses in
the land swell with arrogance and all
the post-offices increase in desperation,

The Era of Small Men.

There is much force and truth in the
following, which we find in the Louis
vile Courier Journal:
Never before in our country's histo
ry were the legislative halls of the ma
tien so crowded with small men. Not
only small intellectually, but also small
in morals, and small in everything else
that goes to make up the full stature oi
men worthy to fill the position of law
makers for great nation like ours.
When the United States Senate was Or
namented by such men as Henry Clay,
John G. Calhoun, Daniel Webster,
Thomas Benton, Thomas Ewing, Silas
Wright, and their compeers-men no.
ted for their intellect, eloquence, patri.
otism and high sense of honor, loved al
home and respected abroad-it reflected
credit on the people whose interests i,
represented, and whose honor it upheld
Americans everywhere, regardless o.
party, regarding it as the greatest de
Lucrative body in the world. Not.
withstanding the excitement and bit.
ter partisan feeling of the time, no Sen.
ator was ever charged with having OBJ
tanned his seat through fraud, bribery
and corruption, or being mixed up with
any rascally scheme to swindie the
Government or defraud the people to
enrich himself. Then every Senator
was an honorable man, and there was
not one among them who would not
rather have received a wound than
borne stain. But how have the
mighty fallen! Harlan, Nye, Clayton,
Caldwell, Cameron and Brownlow, and
others, noted for their selhshness and
moral leprosy, have taken the places
made vacant by the great mon who
preceded them. befouling the Senate
and disgracipg the American name.

A Wood county, Ohio,paper contains
the following account of the discovery
of quarry of Mud Turtles. Recently
two men were engaged in the construc-
ton Of ditch No. 1873. The ditch leads
through marshy swamp, which has
not probably in the recollection of the
oldest inhabitant, been as dry as this
year, and even with the present great
drouth, the team of horses mired so
badly that in some instances they had
to dig and pry them out from among
the sunken bogs where they became
entangled. In one place while p)owing
and about q feet below the surface,
they came upon literal patch of huge
mud turtles, some of which were as
large on the back as the bottom of a
Windsor chair, and so firmly imbedded
were some of these tough custom ers,
that they obstructed the plow, and
threw it out Of the furrow the same as
stone or root would do. Five or six
of these lusty fellows would sometimes
be turned out of single furrow. They
had probably sought this moist spot
from som9 distance as the best place to
go into winter quarters.

WE are in favor of all honorable free
dom of speech and freedom of thought
but there are those who take advantage
of both to the manifest injury of society.
Prominent among these abusers of an
admirable principle are the avowed dis
ciples of free love. They should be sup
pressed by the police authorities as dis.
turbers of the public peace, and teachers
of pernicious doctrines and as breakers
of all law moral and civil. One sfthese
shameful and shameless followers of
Free Love, Mrs. Mckinley, recently
gave lecture in New York in which,
among other vile remarks, she made
use of the following: "Love confined
to one will be unknown when love is
perfectly developed There can be no
denunciation too strong for such Ian
guage, no condemnation so utter as not
to be merited. Women who lead noto.
riously impure lives, are under the sur
veillance of the police and are liable to
arrest, but this Mckinley woman is
permitted to openly advocate life of
degradation which the laws expressly
prohibit and punish.

ILL NATURE.-Every day we meet
with persons who in their families are
cross, illnatured, dissatisfied, finding
fault with everybody and everything,
whose first greeting in the breakfast
room is complaint, whose converse
ton seldom fails to end in an enunera-
tion of difficulties and hardships, whose
last word at night is an angry growl.
If you can get such persons TO reason on
the subject, they will acknowledge that
there is some "want" at the bottom of
it the want Of better house, a finer
dress, more handsome equipage, a
more dutiful child, a more provident
husband, a more cleanly, or systematic,
or domestic wife. At one time it is a
"wretched cook" who stands between
them and the sun; or lazy house.ser-
want, or an impertinent carriage. The
want Of more money than Providence
has thought proper 10 bestow will be
found to embrace all these things. Such
persons may feel assured that people
who cannot make themselves really
comfortable in any one set of ordinar y
circumstances would not be SO under
any other DR.. w. w. Hall.

HORACE GREELEY declines to be
considered as "bolting" Republican,
but, on the contrary, as representing
the true Republican party. In a recent
number of the Tribune he says: "The
Convention to be held at Cincinnati on
the first day of May is to be Republi
can Convention. Neither the Grant
nor the Democratic party can partici.
pate in its deliberations. From this
it would appear that he looks upon the
Grant faction as mott Republican organ
ization but as simply corrupt out
growth of the wealth and power which
the party has acquired in years past.
Mr.. Greeley is right in this, that the
present Administration does not resem-
BILE Republican form of Government

IN the city of Rome, there are vari.
GUS and important changes going for
ward. Old houses are being swep
away, new streets opened, new squares
made great excavations in the old ruins
commenced, and the city is taking
on show of life and activity. We
trust King Victor Emanuel will be able
to hold his own in Italy, and not max e
such failure as poor Maximilian mad e
in Mexico. 1t is quite certain that nei.
ther the Italian nor the Mexican people
were fit for self government, and will
not be for many years to come. Both
need wise and strong personal gov.
ernment, and we did the Mexicans more
harm, than we did the cause of republi
can government good, by interfering
with them, and threatening the appli.
cation of the Monroe doctrine.
