THE best story of the pending Presi-
dental campaign is credited to General
Spinner, the veteran United States Treas
urer, whose fearfully and wonderfully
made signature is familiar to all who
handle greenbacks. He says that the
Democratic party reminds him of the
story of an Irishman who decapitated a
turtle, and was astonished to see him
squlrmlng about several days after. "Sure
an he must be dead, for how could he
live without his head ?" remarked a COM
pan:on. " Av coorse he's Dead" replied
the first, "but the poor crathur is not
sensible av it,"

HERE is an extract from speech deliv-

tember; "And there is party outside
the Democratic party, beating around
among the seas, driven for ten years
hither and thither by every wind of pas
sion, taking a new departure and seeking
to find the old ship. If you believe they
can man and sail her more safely, put
them in possession of her buff you think
the men who saved her are the best TO

has become a law, settlers may pre-empt
100 acres of agricultural land GAO acres

The New York World says the Trum-
bull Schurz Greeley meeting at New
York was the Bunker Hill of a new Rev

" AT the meeting the Liberals were the

happy one at all. The Wortd blunders
as badly as its allies"

The nomination Of Horace Greeley for
the Presidency by the Cincinnati Con-
vention will be surprise in all political
circles. As one of the delegates said in
caucus, it will cause "gufaw" through
out the United States. What Horace
knows about farming is not a circumstance
to what he will know about being beaten
for President in November next.

WHAT MAY HAPPEN. - Greeley, in
the Tribune, recently said "If the

the Republicans must stand to their arms
and fall into line"

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.
WAsHINGToN, April 26, 1872.
IMPORTANT ARGUMENT.

IMPORTANT ARGUMENT.
The bill to refund the cotton tax still
fingers before the House Committee Of
Ways and Means to which it has been
referred, but that Committee appear to
be giving it such consideration as will no
doubt result in its prompt passage when
once it is reported. Yesterday Hon.
Herschel V. johnson made an exhaust
i've argument in its favor before the Com
mittee showing the unconstitutionality of
the law of 1866 under which it was col
lected, and that this unconstitutionaity
would have been declared by the Su-
pfeme Court of the United States ere the
spirit of war under which it was enacted
had been fairly swept out Of way so as to
allow course Of equal justice to sway
the average mind, but for the fact that
the members of the Supreme bench were
equally divided in opinion on the subject.
lie made it very clear that upon the
opinion Of one man out of nine hangs the
question of legality Of the statute, while
the injustice and inequity of the law itself
is admitted by all men who have dispas-
sionatcy examined the subject. The
rghtfulness of the refund is shown to be
the opinion of Congress by its repeal of
the law US an unjust imposition. Thus II
previous Congress and doubtless the pres
ent Supreme bench together with the peo-
pie Of the country in general who have
looked into the manner of its collection
are all in favor of doing justice to these
worthy producers by giving them back
from them. 1t is therefore to be hoped
that the present Congress will have the
frmness to do this praiseworthy act OF
manly reparation, not only for the sake
of the recipient, but also for the growth
Of the South and the consequent prosper
ity of the country at large.
MORE POLITICAL DOCUMENTS.
The Congressional Republican Com
mittee has just published two documents
ofegreat importance. One is a compia-
ton of the last three Presidential mes
sages by topics with Introductory com
ments. The President is permitted to
speak for himself upon Education, the
Labor Question, Commerce, Agriculture,
Manufactures, Foreign Affairs, Tariff and
Civil Service Reform, etc. 1t is the best
possible document to be placed in the
hands of the voters, for the purpose Of
refuting the allegations that the Presi-
dent is not a statesman. His utterances
are characterized by sound judgment and
a full comprehension Of the topic under
discussion.
The other document, also written by
j. Fred Meyers, Esq, is full statement
Of what may be accomplished through
the instrumentality of the Republican
party, and comprises many new themes,
such as National Industrial Schools, a
National Labor Bureau, n National San
itary Bureau, National Insurance, Post
office Savings Banks, Postal Telegraph,
National Railways, Tariff and Civil Ser
vice Reform and the question of Central
ization.
From this inventory it will be seen that
it is one of the most important political
documents that has been issued in many
years.

PROTECTION TO EMIGRANTS.


There is pending in the House very
important measure designed to protect
immigrants on board ships and IN trans
"". The Tammany New York conven-
ton have wasted over million of dol
lars Of the emigrant's money (SI 30 levied
upon each statute adult and are in debt
now. This has been fully proved before
the new York State Legislative Investi-
eating Committee. 1t is to be hoped
that this bill will not be neglected, for
those members who may have large con-
sttuencies Of foreign born citizens may
be unpleasantly reminded of this neglect.
Action upon this subject is both a nation
al and party necessity.
NORTH CAROLINA SENATOR SEATED.
General Ransom, of North Carolina,
yesterday took the oath and was admit
ted to a seat in the Senate without divi-
sion. This completes the list of Senators
and members admitted from the South
ern States and constitutes subject of
congratulatien that at last after twelve
years of secession and its necessary con-
sequences, the Southern States are re-ha-
billtated with full power of representa-
ton under the reconstruction laws. The
majority of Republicans reported against
the Republican claimant General Abbott
and in favor of Geneal Ransom, and thus
without resort to party power or even a
very strict construction Of the constitu-
ton, the Democratic portion of the Leg
stature of North Carolina which origin
ally cast its vote solid in favor of one
who was excluded by law, all the real
lawful votes being cast for General Alb
bott-was allowed to have its own way in
the matter.

PASsIVISNf.

1t is now said that National Demo-
cratic Convention will be held at St.
Louis on the 4th of July.
Hon. Fernando Wood is authority for
the statement yesterday that the Demo-
Gratis will not favor or submit to the nom
ination of Charles Francis Adams at the
Cincinnati Convention for President. 1t
Is probable that he puts this forth and
the further statement that none of the
Democrats in Congress favor him for
political bait in the Porkopolis fishing
ground. Mum is the word or something
worse from these expcctants who are in
dustriously waiting for nibble.
ITEMS OF INTEREST.
John j. Knox was yesterday confirmed
by the Senate as Comptroller of the Cur
rency. He is generally acceptable, and
will undoubtedly make frst-class Off
Ger.
The letter of Charles Francis Adams
to his dear friend, David A. Wells, ESQ.

chlldlike and bland. August Belmont
