legislative Perouisites and Pay.

LEGISLATORS have, like alligator&. inordlnate
apretiteS. They are never satcd. NO mat
fer what the extent of their pcrquisltcs-no
matter what the amount of their pay-they
can't give up anything; they never reject any
addition that may he made to either. Congress
was Yesterday again talking about the lr''llN-
inc privilege, as it has been talking about II
for many wears without giving it up. IL Is
too convenient for congressman ana also lor
their frcnds-too useful i'll disseminating
na,ty doclmcntS-to be abandoned. so,
however they may talk. and however de-
>irous they may appear to be for the Adolf
ton of the privilege, it is all fudge. 1lcy
have no idea of giving it up.
II is curious to rcclir to the past and see
how the perquisitcs of legislators have
crown. There was Il time when the frank
OF a member of Congress was regarded is
consccrltcd to the Use of that member, and
10 I've used only for himself. Now that frank
is given to all his friends. The Po>t-Oiflce
DEPARTMENT is robbed Of hundreds OF thou
sands of dollars hy the improper Use OF the
fl1,nking privilege.
So it may be said of the stationery. Con-
grcsSmcn originally bought their own paper,
thcu came the privilege of using the Go
vcrnmcnt paper. which WAS lnd'llScd III
rather couscicnlouSy. But i'll time the
moral sense became rather hlunted, and now
a congressman takes rs much paper as he
and his friends want during the session,
and he lays in supply for the recess. Be
sides the paper there are pen-krivcS, pencils,
and lots of envelopes. TO these may be add
ed a vast pile of public documents, scientific
reports, etc. which are sold to bookstores
and paper-makcrs for the benefit of the hon
or,blc members.
LEGISLATORS Of the States have been ready
to initiate the wastcful and voracious habits
Of congressman, and beginning with tinid
use of the Government stationery, they now
do not hesitate to take as much as they want ;
and everybody knows that that is likely to
be as much as they can carry.
We have no idea that any of the pay or
perquisites OF the legislators will ever he sur
rendered. The pay, we think, is not too
much; but the perquisitcs arc rather toe
much stretched. Both will grow larger be-
fore they will be diminished. There is nc
satisfying the greed of alligators.

The Southern Trade.

While We arc looking to the opening ., :,
,,r,~c commerce between Richmond III" Wv
West we should not forget the so'''l''i IN Wv"
merce which il within the sphefe "a 'A.' :,
mond and entirely within her grasp h''
.ho hoo 70 do is to make the proper eflor7,
am, :. 50 hc,s She has the advantage OF dis
t,ucc 90 rrcatly In her favor that she ca1ho'
6,d =, excuse for herself should she allo"
!, to Get away from her. Some important
revolutions have been wrought in the rail-
roads connecting us with the Carolnas, ana
VIC hope changes of rates of frclShts are yet
10 be made that will be very much to our
advantage. Wearc relieved from the charges
for forwarding in Petersburg. We get rid
of the discriminating tax against us in the
transportation between Charlotte and Greens
boro', and we have unobstructed through
communication with the Carolinas ana
Georgia and the Gulf. With these advan-
tascs we should soon have thrifty and
active commerce with the South.
The Richmond Airline from Atlanta TO
Charlotte will be finished during this year,
and then we shall have stronger defence
for our trade with the South, and a stimulus
to its increase that nothing but the most cul-
pable apathy could fail to make available.
With such facilities for commerce between
Richmond and the South, there should be
soon established here Il point Of exchange
between the East and the West. Southern
products consumed in the Northwest VIII
take the route pid Richmond and the Chcsa-
peake and Ohio railroad, and the western pro-
ducts destined for the South Atlantic will
find its way by the same channel. The rela-
ton that will thus be held by Richmond to-
wards this trade will I've greatly to her advall-
tagc.
As this southern trade will he very lucra-
tive, we should not fail to cultivate it, and TO
establish the best and most intimate business
relations between ourselves and our southern
fclow-citizcns, who, other things being equal,
vastly prefer trading with Richmond to trA-
ding with other markets.

IMPORTANT LAW IN RELATION TO CRIMI-
NAL TRIALs.-The late Legislature passed
an net, approved Sd February, 1872, amend
ing chapter 151, section II, of the Code, the
operation of " ich made it obligatory on the
courts to try "pleas of the Commonwealth
(felonies and misdemeanors) only at the issue
OF quarterly terms. The act was designed
to amend section II in another particular,
and the words "pleas Of the Common
wealth." not by design, were retained in the
text.
BY an act approved 1ith March, 1872, it is
provided as follows:
"SEcTioN II. In a county court cases of
cacedt, such motions us are provided for by
the 9th section Of chapter lG1, and actions at
law, shall BIC cognizable only ut the terms de-
sig,ated for the trials Of civil cases in which
juries are required. All other matters or
things authorized by law to be done by or in
such court may be done ut any term thereof"

last provision, 's.instcad OF increasing Enc
stringencyo OF the obligations of the neutrnls,
recognized by the existing hW OF nations;
the highest interests Of civilization demand
that the liberties and rights of neutrals shail
be extended, and the privileges ana powers
of States Mt war diminished" The rs0lll-
ton is as follows:
"Rcsoiced. That it is the opinion Of this
House that the said claims for lnoirect uaiil-
ages should be held and considered 10 ne
waived by the said recited intimatlon OF the
American commissioners That they would be
waived in case of nm amics,ble settlement OF
the matters in dispute, it being clear that
settlement of those matters by and under the
award of the said tribunal of arbitration Will
be an anicablc settlement thereof; ana That
the said claims for indirect damages are in
COMPATIBLE with the terms and provisions OF
the said treaty; and that the propositions
commended for in the said case in respect TO
the obligations of neutrals, as above reClted,
are unsOund and Incompatible with AmerI-
can precedents and the genius OF our insti-
tutions."
The section of the protocol referred to in
the resolution is in these words: "1n the
hope of an anlicablc settlement, no estimate
was made of the indirect losses, without
prejudice. however, to the right OF lndelnnl-
fication on their account in the cvcnt'of no
such settlement being made" THIS Is the
first public opposition made to the claims for
indirect damages on the floors of Congress.
The resolution was referred to the Commit
tee on Foreign AtlilirS.-Zctd.

Mr.. GREELEY still calls upon the United
States Senate to look into the charges of the
Kansas Legislature that the two senators from
that State were elected through the groSSest
corruption. In old times an imputation of
that sort against a member Of Congress or L
State legislator would have made the men,
bers very restless in their seats until the
honor of the body was indicated by the dis
proyal of the charge or the removal of the
accused. Nay, an accused member would
have demanded an immediate investigation.
The United States Senate, however, is not
in hurr, about seeing whether the two
Republican senators are the corrupt men
they are represented to be. Were those sem
ators Democrats however, the case would he
very different. 1t may be that 50 much bet
ter things are expected of Democrats that
they should be held to more rigid accounts
bility than the Republicans. But whatever
the moral view of the matter on the part OF
the Republicans, they seem always to take
advantage Of every case either to strengthen
their side or take care that no harm comes
to it from fair Investigation. We suppose
nothing will be done with the two senators
this session, as to expose them might damage
the party i'll the presidential election.
