The Union League Of America, headquar.
ters in Philadelphia, has declared agains;
"the cruelties exercised by the Spanish au.
''tboIities in the island of Cuba towards Il
portion OF its frec.born citizens, and more
particularly towards that class of the hu.
"man race still kept in bondage" The
League further declares that :" no permanent
"peace can come to the island until the
bonds Of slavery are stricken from their
climbs"
II order to sci in motion the work of
abolition, they urge Congress to accord bel
liscrent rights to the rebels.
The zeal Of the phianthropists and parti-
san hypocrites in this country in meddling
with the internal utlairs Of other countries is
oo!ruslre and irrepressible. They affect to
be too just to seize Cuba for the sake of peace
and security, but are willing to recognize the
feeble rebellion, and seek to make it success.
full by national treachery in giving it aid and
comfort.
Congress has the question of according
belligerent rights to the rebels under the
consideration Of its committees. They will
take their time to report and Congress viii
also take its time to act. So utterly unjusti-
fable would be this recognition BY our Gov
eminent that Congress cannot possibly tiud
any pretext for it. We have no apprehen.
sion that 1t viii do uythiug else with the
proposition than reject it.

The Currency Question.

Mr.. Brr1rR, Of Massachusetts,, on rlcas
added another TO several propositions Win
regard TO the currency in the form OF OH
IN increase tho volume Of national paper
bv money authorizing the issue OF 800 per
cent. bonds to be deposited with assistant
treasurcrs aud cxchangeable for legal-tenaeF
notes. The proposition was referred 10 'hs
Committee on Banking and Currency.
It Is to be regretted that Congress should
move slowly upon the question Of authoriz'
in2 the increase of the volume OF currency
A temporary measure for this purpose
would at once relieve the country. AT
nounce 10 the people that such measure
had been passed. and magical effect "ouio
follow. Confidence would recover rapidly
and persons who have boarded bank-note:
would at once part with them. They wonit

The Congressional Frank.

The accounts from Washington represent
the accumulation Of public documents as
immense. The Congressman, being deprived
OF the Thanking privilege, are not sending
them of. Notwithstanding their pay was
increased in order to enuble them to pay the
very limited postage charged upon these
documents, they prefer to spend the money
otherwise, and Lex the documents go to the
dealer in rags, 10 DO worked up into paper
again.
Those piles OF documents will be Used as
arguments for the restoration Of The frank
ing privilege, and most ujustly. The peo'
pie Go not lose much IN not getting the
larger par. of those documents, and they
have the remedy 10 their own hands against
tie neglect and faithlessDcss Of those ncl1-
bers who appropriate to their personal uses
the money which is pli:, them !oc the pur-
pose Of transmitting to their constituents tie
really valuable volumes printed for Congress.
The great cvi! Of the frankng pri, ;!ege
was that 1t was used shamefuiy for personal
and party purposes. This evil had become
SO great that the mails were seriously Oh
struc,ed by the weight Of dead-bead matter
thrown upon them. Every newspaper cor
respondent, every hob-taled politician loung-
ing about Washington waiting for something
to turn up, had franks al la6stuna, and nearly
al Of them had command Of reams Of Gov
eminent paper. The mails became. the me-
dlum for disseminating a vast amount of OBJ
jectionaole matter besides the clectioneeriug
documents Of the day, filed more with false
hood and inceudiary appeals 10 sectional
bate than with information. The abolition
Of the frank relieves the country from
mountain of such matter, and will reduce
that sent and paid for by public men to what
is valuable and instructive.
1t would be far better to continue the pre-.
sent pay OF congressman than 10 reduce ii
and restore the frank.
