Gravity Of the situation.

Our midnight dispatch from Washing
ton represents the feeling on the Spanish
question as more marked now than at any
rreyious time since the Virginius capture.
The members Of the Cabinet are unusually
re,icent. A steady preparation for emer-
vepcles Is going on. The news from
Madrid no doubt adds to the war feeling:
A, New York yesterday the markets
were in a fever Of excitement over the
rumors as they were made public from
hour to hour. It's evident that the possl-
bllity Of war Is growing in popular appre-
hansion.

The Last Act In the Tweed Drama
To.daY.


The motion In arrest Of judgment Il
to be argued in TwEED's case to-day IL
New York. If the motion Is overrulet
it Is probable that TWEED will be sentenc
ed TO States Prison for o number Of years
Mr. TRRMAIsE, the Counsel for the pros
ecution, gave notice before adlournmen
on Wednesday that he should ask for
separate term Of imprisonment on eacf
count TWEED was found guilty on tht
ftty.five counts contained in the indict
ment, and Judgment was deferred in or
der that GRAHAM, his counsel, might ar
que the Ques ton Of Jurisdiction on tht
part Of the court before which he wa
tried. -,
The verdict finding TwEED guilty Is ar
event for public congratulation through
out the land, aud 1t Is hardly wonderful
that the press are almost jubilant over the
occurrence. 1t begins to look once more
as II II was true that though hand joir
10 hand the wicked shall not go unpun
ished." 1t begins 10 look as II the name
oi Justice was not altogether a sham and
mockery in New York. The event al-
most redeems the ghastly farce lately en-
acted In the trial Of STOKES. Homes
people in that city and throughout tht
country will take heart again. The sigh
Of the great TWEED behind prison bar
will be q wholesome picture for th'
rising generation to gaze upon. NJ
such wholesale thieving is known Il
modern times as he and his ring carried
on in New York City. The amount stolei
directly and indirectly has been estimated
as high as thirty millions. And yet HI
was not tried Tor stealing, Notwithstanding
all these stolen millions, but simply 10
wilfal and corrupt disregard Of his dutie
in auditing claims as President Of th'
Board Of Supervisors. But II he Is SEN
fenced on each Of the fity.five counts IL
the indictment on which he was fount
guilty, the country will overlook the fac
that he was only tried for connivance ii
a felony and not for felony direct. It'll
the conviction and sentence that tht
country has been longing TO see.

The OBJECT AND AIM Of the Southern
Historical Society is acknowledged by its
founders to be the 'pOor privilege Of yindi-
eating before the bar OF history the prin-
ciples for which we Che Confederates) con-
tended" and their conduct during the war.
We find this acknowledgment in the circu-
lar publicly distributed and signed by ~. A.
Early, president" sc. Studying the circu-
lar carefully, we also find that the criticisms
of the press, North and South, OF JEFF. Davis
REASONABLE speech at the last meeting OF the
society, hcld at the Montgomery White Sui
phur, Is characterized as unreasonable
clamor." No sane or unprejudiced man will
fail TO perceive Ia this Characterization
yindication Of principles which Is widely at
variance with the professions Of submission
TO the results OF the war which are so bla-
family made by the members Of the society,
Our opinion OF the honesty Of these gentle
man would be greatly enhanced II their sub
mission had been so faithful rs to enable
them to discover that the objections made to
jeff. Davis speech were exceedingly reason
able, and that the clamor against his treason
able utterances had for its motive the benefit
of nil the people Of the United States, with
out regard to the sectional differences of &C.
day or of the late war. As II is, we believe
them to be party Of mumbling old gran
mics, and we agree with them only on the
acknowledgment OF their antiquity, con
taluod in the following appeal, which they
make one to another for material with which
TO perpetuate their tomfoolery In 'he form OF
so-called history "Lct us, who are soon to

belong, see there are no gaps In Che record.

The rArERs lately have been busy with
complimentary notices of little San. Cox,
whose nomination to be the Democratic can.
didato to succeed the late James Brooks in
the House Of Representatives was duly
chronicled in our news columns. Those who
have watched Cox's career will not be slow
TO recognize in these notices the cunning In
duence of his oily and persuasive manner,
and will not deny the assertion that they are
the result Of his success in the efforts Of q
demagogue to iagratiatc favor with those
who may be useful TO his selfish purposes.
In short, 1t has become popular with certain
classes Of people to believe that, notwith-
standing his political hercsies, Cox Is "a
good fellow" and 1t Is about time that the
public should know the truth. As q friend,
no more unreliable and vascillating man than
he is now in public life, and, us politician,
none more tricky has ever failed In his aspl'
rations to craftsmanship.

THE New York Herald, commenting on the
proposition of Postmaster General Crcswcll
TO establish postal banks, says:
"The idea OF establishing post once savings
banks has In II nothing novel. IL has already
been practically carried out In Europe. To the
poor aboring man or mechanic who has man
aged through Industry and frugality to get to-
gether little capital Il gives security that his
hartl-earned money shall not be lost without any
error or fault OF his own. 1t renders the saw
ings Of the people AS secure as national cur
rency, pledging for them the credit and good
faith Of the nation. In addition to the great ad-
vantage Of entire security, 1t affords depositors
the advantage OF taking their saving. bank with
them into any part Of the Union. II mechanic
now has money deposited In 4 savings bank, and
Is suddenly called away to work at distant
locality, he Is compelled TO be at the trouble OF
drawing his money and at the risk Of carrying II
with him. Under the postal savings bank sys-
TEN he carries his bank with him wherever he
may 90, and can draw his balance wherever and
whenever he may please without disturbing the
money. In Europe the system has been found
TO work with advantage, both TO the deposition
and the Government; and In this country, with
It's great distances and Its migratory population,
its benefits would he proportionately greater TO
both"

ALREADY THE rIrEs arc being laid and
wires being pulled to secure the election of
certain candidates TO be officers OF the next
House Of Representatives. II Is generally
conceded that no contest will occur over the
clerkship Of the House, as Mr.. Mcpherson
has so conducted the affairs Of that Office as
to render general satisfaction and to insure
his reelection without opposition. 1t is also
generally conceded that the postmastership
will be given to tho South. The most promi-
nent candidate yet mentioned is ex-Repre-
sentative Perez, of Mississippi. For Ser
geant-at-Arms Ii Is understood that Mr..
Joseph Dryer, esq, Of Ohio, Colonel Ord
way, the present incumbent, and Colonel \.
II. MARYLAND, Of Indiana, will be candidates.
Colonel Ordway has some prestige as an ex-
perlenccd officer, and has made few friends
among members whose salary accounts he
may have prepaid. Dwyer Is backed by n
strong combination, which will carry the
West and South, with rare exceptions, to his
support. MARYLAND relies on his record as a
military mail agent TO secure his election;
but II has served him SO long rs u recon-
mendaton for office that II has become a.
worn and smells as bad as q professional
beggar's certificate.
