PEACE WITH THE MoDocs.- The latest
phase Of the Modoc question is that the
"big injuns" refused to have anything to
do with the Peace Commissioners, Mea-
cham, Applegate and Co. They had a
"big talk" however, with Judge Rosbor-
ough and Squire Steele, and and terms
for Treaty Of Peace were agreed upon,
as shown by the following dispatch:
TO c. DeldnO, washington Have
sent messenger with these terms Mo
docs to surrender as prisoners of war; to
be removed to southern and warmer
climate, and provided for. They accept
the terms, and have sent Il delegation of
eight to talk over details, but not to con-
clude them. Captain Jack is sick. Ev-
erything looks favorable forpeace. They
ask for small homes and to be located
collectively. We think well of their re-
quest. Amnesty to all. Captain Jack
desires to visit Washington with one or
two Of his young men.

CLOSE CoLLECTING.-We learn from
the State Board Of Equalization, says the

ance companies who refuse to pay on the

that IL the entire wealth of the United

Mr.. Beck, of Kentucky, made an elab-
crate speech a day or two since against
refunding the cotton tax. In the course
Of his argument he was obliged to admit
that the national constitution was clearly
against tax upon exports and that at
least 66 per cent. of the cotton tax was
suffered unjustly and unlawfully upon
exported cotton. lie believed the pro-
ducers ought to be refunded this tax
but no bill presented for this purpose
suited him, and hence he opposed bills
for doing that a part Of which, at least,
he admitted to be justify and lawfully
due to those who had paid this tax. If
the opponents Of refunding make as
Wholesale admissions of its rightfulness
there will scarcely be a question Of the
ultimate success Of the measure in some
form.

LOUISIANA INVESTIGATION.

1t is thought that the Louisiana In
vestigating Committee will report that
there is no legal State Government
in that State and that consequently no
U. S. Senator has been lawfully elect
ed. A new election will probably be re-
quired to be held under strict legal re-
quiremcnts for Governor, Legislators and
all other State officers. This might be a
remedy for the evils of ignorance and ar
bitrary individual leadership, provided
Yarmouth and others who are found
guilty of fraud and Irregularities arc
locked up, and prevented holding any
communication with the managers o.
either party.

INTEREST.

AS result of the Credit Mobiier in
vestigation it is not doubted that the
original ruling OF Secretary Boutwell, will
be adopted by Congress in regard to the
payment of interest on the bonds of the
Pacific railroads. House appropriation
committee has just agreed to the Senate
amendment substantially as it came from
the Senate. What will be the effect of
this proposed action upon the road re-
mains to be seen but even if the u. S.
interest in the roads should be tempora-
rily prejudiced, it cannot end in anything
worse than bankruptcy on the part of
the companies and the taking of the road
off their hands by the General Govern
ment. Many thinking persons believe
that the Government ought to run this
and some other roads in the interest of
the people, and that it would be done
with greater economy than by any pri-
vate corporation. Q. NJ.

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 81, 1873.
MORE INVESTIGATION.


The Pomeroy Investigating Commit
tee has commenced work vigorously.
The Senate has enlarged the scope of the
Investigation to include all charges, old
and new, against Senator Pomeroy. The
Ross letter has been revived, and though
only twelve days remain of the session a
months work is before the committee.
So far, little or no corroboration of York S
charge of bribery has been obtained.
None of the allies of York in the scheme
to decoy and expose Mr.. Pomeroy show
any proof that Pomeroy gave York the
money, and the charge stands on his un-
supported oath. The committee will have
to summon most of the Kansas Legisla-
ture according to present appearances.

Let it not be Forgotten.

In reference to the Investigations
of the Credit Mcbilier fraud, and the
probable expulsion Of certain Of the
guilty members, it is asked by a Re-
publican paper. "that it be not forgot
ten that it is Republican Committee
and Republican Congress which does
it." Assuredly it will not be forgot
ten, nor need the charity have been
asked, for it is but matter Of neces-
sity, the Republican knife never would
be used at all only through the most
selfish Of purposes. The game of
plunder is becoming monopoly, and
to prevent this, so that the chances
may be more equally divided, the
would be righteous members Of this
much maligned party occasionally use
the knife and take off the head Of one
who is getting too far in ADVANCE
To be sure it will be remembered,
but not to the credit Of the Repub-
lican party.

After three months Of jolly good
time, with little hard work: plenty Of
fat takes. besides high wages, the law
makers, of this part of Uncle Sans
immoral plantation: have ceased from
their labors, and goneto bosoms Of fam
families and people, and to the beggar-
ly elements Of hog and howiny; and IN
omeinstances to more honestindustries
in the manipulation of the agricultural
implements Of shovel and hoe, and
other suitable callings. 1t is well that
they should. Three whole months is
long whet to spend in the making Of
laws, and it is not surprising that out
Of the large number, about two or
three hundred perhaps, some may have
crept in which are Of no use or benefit.

know whereof they speak, and who can

followed them from the halls which 50
lately resounded with clamorcus voices,
but which are now as still as sepulchrcs.
We hear no dissatisfaction expressed
that the session is over, but rather
relief that ninety days or thereabouts
were sufficient to finish up su:h work
as the State needed, let alone that
which was not needed. So We echo !

Public immortality.

If any one will glance for Q moment
at the course Of public affairs il this
country during the past few years, ne
cannot fail to see evidences OF the
grcssest corruption. Every man Of
ordinary Intelligence has observed
this widespread immortality in places
Of public trust ; and yet the press aud
people have almost uniformly exhibit
ed an unaccourtable rcticerce. The
press, in all countries. is great power
for good or evil, and more particularly
in one like ours where pullic sent
laeut is to a great extent fashioned
and moulded BY the character and
tone Of the newspaper. If the news
papers have recome so much corrupted
By the dishonest, high-placed func-
tionaries Of the government that they
either remain silent in the presence OF
high crimes, Or seek by injurious ex-
cuses to cloak them from the people.
then We fear that the symptoms Of po-
litical disease give unmistakable evi-
dence Of fatality But if We are shock
ed at the Indifference ard corruption
Of the press, by what exp!etive shall
We characterize the apathy Of the peo-
pic? Men will say that corruption
has always existed in every form Of
grernment-granted, but does any
honest man pretend to deny. that its
