When The TRIBUNE commended the three
New Hampshire Congressman, the other day,
for voting against the salary grab, it was upon
the suppOsition that they were too honest to
vote themselves money they had not earned or
to take it after other and less scrupulOus men
had voted it. 1t is hardly necessary to say that
if this was dishonest transactiOn-and the
moral sense of community certainly seems to
have revolted against it as having precisely
that auality-the act of taking and pocketing
that money after itihad been voted differed
from the disgrace of voting for it only in the
degree in which sneak theft differs from high
way robbery.
1t now appears that Messrs. Hubbard and
Parker, members of the last Congress from
New-Hampshire, after having made capital for
themselves on the stump before the late cleo
ton in that State by proclaiming their opposi-
ton to the salary grab, as soon as the election
was over wrote to Washington and drew the
five thousand dollars unearned money. II ia
with great regret-for we do want to believe
in somebOdy-that we withdraw the commend
alton heretofore pronounced on these gentle
men, and, upon this state of facts, pronounce
them humbugs and shams. BY Boosting of
their opposition to the measure, and setting
that ND as claim for reelection, they admitted
that the grab was dishonest and shameful; by
refusing to draw their share of the plumber
before the election, they deceived their con-
stituents with a counterfeit of honesty; by
drawing il after the election was over, they
confessed, that being too cOwardly to steal on
their own account. they were mean enough to
boast of it and make pretense of virtue till
a convenient opportunity, when they sneaked
back and took their share of the proceeds of
the theft.
By the side of this transaction the shame
lessness and audacity of Mr.. Butler and his
followers, who openly voted for this seizure
become respectable. They at least put their
names to it, without 80 much as resOrting 30
the device of round robin. They said, ave
"have the power to take this money; we want
ait, and so we take it," Perhaps they would
never have dared do it had they stood 80 near
an election as the New Hampshire members,
and been liable to be called to account by
their constituents within month"; We do not
think they would. Not one of the perpetrators
of this outrage would have dared vote for it
had his election been pending. But however
that may be, they did have the shameful cour-
age to walk mp deliberately to the vote and
take the responsibility for their baseness.
These w-Hampshire fellows have shown
neither honesty nor courage. Let us thank God
one of them is defeated and take shame to
ourselves that tho other ia returned. i'tf
Now lot all these men understand distinctly

il at present no prospect Of its issue.
But out of all this expenditure of brains
there are at least some probable conclusions
that may already be taken for granted. First
the classes of inventions which are excluded
from the consideration Of the Commission, are
quite % important as those which are re-
tanned; and among the former, the Belgian
system is at least as good as any. Second; a
rapid tug boat which towed several boats,
would be so delayed as it brought its feet up
to each lock, while the locks have only their
present capacity, that little would be
gained-nOt enough to pay for its use
in any case on the shorter levels. Third ;
success is most likely to come with old
and well recognized principles of construction,
both az to boat and machinery, the novelty
being principally in the direction of unusual
simplicity and economy. Lastly, the system
adopted must have reference to the fact that
each boat in the canal is to be regarded as
unit, under a separate owner. Fast boats VIII
pass slow ones, and neither will be over nice
about regulations, or running each other
aground. Gimcracks Of all kinds, if autho-
rized by the State, are likely to become a
nuisance, even though at the bottom oil the
canal.

elections to the upper house of our National

So many Treasury drafts pass into the cur
rency of the country, especially in remote set

found necessary to issue new regulations pre-

men is directed to the new order on this sub

The revival of the old system OF rece'V-

Gently fall into such al error; and 80 we give
warning. The appointment on the application
of a creditor of the Bulls Head Bank OF Mr.
Isaac H. Bailey to be receiver with Messrs.
Thomas Murphy and Henry Clews as his sure
ties. and John l. Davenport as his counsel, Is
an error the consequences of which to the de-
positors and himself we are sure Judge Fan
cher did not contemplate when he made the
order. Two sets of depositOrs have asked for
a receiver. To appoint one who is not asked for,
on the appeal of a single creditor for paltry
sum- is to make it possible for men in whom
the public have little confidence to commit
great wrong. But worse than all this, it looks
like beginning to revive the system, from
which only last year great struggle and a
difficult victory relieved US. Stop it right

Cheap telegraphy is apparently not 80 distant as
many people have supposed The Journal Of the
Ielegoph, whose statements on the subject may be
regarded as authoritative, says The Western
Union Telegraph Company have under considera-

reduction of tariffs which is to be of the most radi-
cal and sweeping nature. The change cODtemplates
the use of only ten different rates for the entire

reduction in rates can be justified" The improved
apparatus referred to is doubtless Stearns's duplex
instrument now extensively adopted by the Western
Union Co. There is also some talk about this Com

New York and Washington. Should this prove true,

A letter from Hartford, Conn, published here
WITH contains view of the political situation
in Connecticut pending the election fort
night hence. There is very little excitement
or even animated discussion upon politics in
the State, and appearances now indicate
Republican success. The reflections upon the
relations of parties and the confusion of party
lines have a somewhat wider application than
to Connecticut alone, and the local and per-
sonal aspects of the canvass are not without
interest.

The Senate would appear to be already OF
the opinion that not much need be said or
done about the case of Senator Clayton of
Arkansas. The charges against that gentle
man are explicit, and the evidence, so far as
made public, is most damaging. In fact, if
the more portentous scandals and domestic
revolutions which have since attracted attention
had not OvershadOwed his case, the reports
current when Clayton was elected would have
damned him to everlasting fame. Nothing but
the great political excitements of the last year
have prevented him from being regarded
as the most hopeless defendant in Congress.
Yet the Senate yesterday, was disposed to
take up his case out Of hand, and
go through the form of saying
that there was nothing in it.
1t is due to Mr.. Clayton, as was said by Sen
ator Wright, that these charges should receive
immediate attention But it does not follow
that they should be Immediately disposed of
they are too grave and are too VIGOROUSLY
supported by strong evidence for any such
summary treatment. Even ClaytoDs friends
admit that bribery, corruption and intim-
idatiOn were conspicuous and general
during the canvass which resulted
IN the election of the Legislature which chose
him to the United States Senate. The plea in
his favor will belize that urged for Caldwell,
Pomeroy, and all other brbers-that he was not
personally responsible for any crimes which
his supporters may have committed. This
will not do; no argument is needed to pierce
such a transparent subterfuge Let us have
all the evidence and law in the case; but it
must be gone through with if it takes all

The Postmaster stops to argue with the
railroads which refuse to carry the postal cars
instead of going to work to make arrange
ments with other routes. A semi-ofcial state
meat announces that the Postal Department
will not grant an increase of pay, and that an
appeal to the judgment of the public will be
made. This is child's play. If one set of
roads refuse to do the work for what they
consider inadequate pay, deal with some other
road. The work must not stop while the pub
lie decide which is in the right.

Among the new views of the salary steal, as
1T is called, is that entertained by sensitive
Members of Congress who have paid their
extra salary into the treasury of the county
in which they reside. Not few have done
this, it is said and they intend to keep their
action profound secret. This is probably as
fair a way as any for the disposition of the
money; but when Congress meets again there
should be some opportunity given for report
