DOES NEW-JERSEY SUkREYDERf

Has New-Jersey decided to succumb to a
new railroad monopoly9 No sooner is an
honest charter introduced for an independent
and competing road across New-Jersey, road
intended to be built and not a mere charter
to be sold, and upon which heavy sums have
already been expended, than the Pennsylvania
Railroad meets it by simply reversing the
teImini, changing the title and the names of the
corporators, and occupying the same franchise
so far as the right Of way is concerned If
the bill passed by the New-Jersey Senate
secondary in time, totally different in purpose
and almost insulting to the Lower House
becomes law, we shall have this condition
of things. Within a day or two the question
is to be decided and We once more exhort
Jerseymen to watch their Legislature.
AS we pointed out in q previous article, the
Pennsylvania already controls the whole rail-
road system Of New-Jerscy south OF its exist
Ing line from Trenton 10 Jersey City. To the
north of that, there is a narrow strip of ter
ritory parallel with the Pennsylvania. hardly

New-York tribune., 1873-02-25

1t is generally believed among Wall-st.
people that the report concerning the use OF
money in the interest Of the Pacific Mail
Steamship Company, last Winter in
Washington and Albany for lobby
purposes is substantially true. No
statement of the amount used puts it at
less than million and half of
dollars We should be sorry to believe
that the able and energetic President of
the Company was involved in this
business, and trust that the testimony he is eX
pected to give in Washington to-day or to-
morrow may fully relieve himself. That it
can relieve the Company we hardly
hope. Of the effect of all this upon
operations in Wall-st. we know and care
nothing. But its effect on Congress concerns
the whole country; and if a million aud
half, or the tenth part of that sum, was spent
in securing a subsidy for steamship
line, it behOoves the honest men in Congress
to find out where it went The Hon. Mr.. Nye
was not right in suppOsing that the people
are sick of Investigations: the people
are sick of the debauchery of official
conscience which these investigations have re-
vealed but, now that the knife has been put
into the Washington ulcer, they pre-
fer it should go TO the bottom.
Let us have the truth about Pacific Mail,
about Central Pacific, about alleged re-
tainers of prominent Senators year by
year at fees double the salaries which
the Government pays them, about the rest of
the stories which darken the moral atmOs-
phere Of the capital, almost as much as Credit
Mobilier and perjury.

Il ought to be mentioned in justice to eX-
Mayor HAL that closer examination of the in
i,c;ments lately found against the Ring MEM
bers reveals that none have been brought
against him. 1t would have been thought un-
gracious, and perhaps a little ungrateful, if
such action had been taken after the retiring
Mayor had so kindly put a Republican at the
mead OF the Law Department.

An amazing document is that on impeach-
ment which was reported from the House
Judiciary Committee, yesterday. 1t is not a
report it is a sort of Trojan horse in which
is concealed, not q storming party, but
speech. Why the Judiciary Committee, when
asked to consider the question of impeaching
Vice-President COlfax, should file a brief
on the right of the House TO expel
any of its own members, no man but Gen.
Butler can tell This is just what was done.
The special cases recommended by the Poland
Committee need not be considered in cOnnec-
ton with this argument. But the doctrine laid
down by Gen. Butler is dangerous and alarm
ing. Ii is held that the morality of q
Congressman's ,doings forms no subject for
review in the House. He may come there
as the hired attorney of the Central
Pacific Railroad, for instance, and devote all
his time to introducing and voting on bills for
the enrichment of that corporation. The
House cannot touch him; he made his bargain
and got his money before he came into Con-
gress; the morality of the agreement is not
subject for review. 1t is easy to see where
such a construction of law will lead. If Gen.
Butler has his way the House will not only
be place where rascals are made; IL will be
a place of refuge for them. The Commit
tees report that any impeachment Of the Wee
President would be inexpedient leaves the guilt
or innocence of that officer untouched

One of the most discOuraging things about
the present decentralization of Congress is Its
apparent inability to purge itself The action
of the Senate on Mr.. Caldwelrs case, yester-
day, is a startling evidence of this weakness.
Mr.. Morton's motion to take mp the case was
defeated by vote of % Yeas to 80 Nays /;
this is accepted by the friends of the convicted
Senator as conclusive evidence of his strength
in the Senate. Those who voted to let the
thing alone might or might not have voted
for Mr.. Caldwell's expulsion. 1t is not ger
name to the question of his final fate to in
Quire how these Senators would have voted
had the case been squarely before them.
They showed their irresolutiOn in the test
proposed. The Senate is Judge of the qualit-
cations Of its own members; if Senators hesi-
tate as to who shall throw the first stone,
they must also decide whether Mr.. Caldwell
is good enough for them.

That "the cold begins TO strengthen as the
"days begin torlengthen" seems to be proved
by the severity, at least, of this Winters cold.
The mercury touched zero for the first
time in this city this Winter, yesterday ;
reports from all parts of the country show
that the area of low thermometer was
quite extensive, reaching as far south
as Virginia aud Tennessee, and nOrthward to
the Canada line. New-England reports the
mercury at 200 and 30 below; and in the In
terror of New-York the thermometer regis
tered 50 below. We have been spared the
snow which has aggravated the severity of
the weather in some localities and it would
seem that the worst is over.

The people are moving, and the Democratic tidal
wave will soon sweep the corruptionists out oi
power. Grants grab of 100000 will not save
him from the scorn Of an outraged people when
the voice of the oppressed masses are raised
against him and the horde of thieves he has placed
in power are swept away, as they will be in all
the States where military power docs not interfere,
as it ia now being Oone wherever the elections
are held. The news from MARYLAND, Virginia and
New York will be cheering to every man who loves
honesty and good government. The victories won
yesterday are complete, ana show the Indignation
that is rising in the minds Of the people every

Mrs. Goss arrived Saturday morning, and that
night held q conference with Mr.. Whitney, He
stated 70 her his conclusions, but what they were
is not known. Saturday afternoon, soon after the
meeting OF the Bench, Messrs. MacVeagh and
Whitney retired fora few minutes into an ante
room with MIS-. Goss, and announced 10 her that
from the proof afforded by the letters identified,
they believed that A. c. Wilson and W. S. Goss
were one and the same person. At this news
Mrs. Goss was much affected and swoOned away,
and there was promise ofa scene, but her friends
succeeded in restoring her, and she became more
composed. She came here under telcgraphiC
summons from Mr.. Whitney. She was accom-
panied by the little son and daughter Of the pris
Oner, and Saturday afternoon they were present
with their father Ia the courtroom. Both were
prettIy dressed, and the little girl is decidedly
handsome Ddderzook took them upon his knees
and careased them. Al the time Mr.. MacVeagLi

that their companies will prosecute him to th'

The insurance companies were able to SAT-

proof to satisfy Jury. The teeth OF the sub
iect taken from the ruins Of the fire afforded
the strongest proof in their possession, but was
thrown out by the jury, as stated at the Tune

was considerable testimony as to the move
ments of A. e. GOss on the evening Ofthe hre,
including the hiring of n buggy from Dr.
John Thorn and his engagement with young
lady at his boarding house. Apair or gloves
