Inc hOnchalencc Win WHICH lWceo
Tngersoll and Harrington marched of to
prison is significant of the power Of
money over mems souls. Ill repute and
public disfavor are nothing, if a fortune
can be obtained. Even psculation in
the public funds bears with it little OF
no disgrace in the eyes of the average
mind, if a 1.-THE of the criminals plum
der is devoted to tho poor, to the build
ing Of orphan asylums, to universities
or some other charitable institutions.
Even some can be found who look pity
ingly upon the imprisonment of Tweed,
the greatest thief Of modern times.
Giving charitable construction to this
ncwly created sympathy for so great a
scoundrel, We account for it simply on
the ground that there are others " in and
out Of Congress, in public positions

people know to DO as lad at heart, "a
Tweed il not in the magnitude Of their
villanics, who deserve punishment rs
severe As his, but have not yet been
caught at their rascality and "ial!cn to
his ill-luck." 1t is a sympathy which
can be forgiven on the ground that prob
ably Tweed, even, had some virtues and
that men still "rciSn in crime" who are
worse at heart than he. Ingersoll and
Harrington are only thirty-tive years of
age and have only five years TO serve;
but are immensely rich, and will come
out of prison with many years before
them. Tho consciences which have
winkcd at thicving Of so great magni-
tudc will probably not suffer materially
in future years when they a.,emp; to en-
Joy their ill-gottcn lucre. Only as they
are Stunned by their fellow citizens and
condemned by an unanimous public
opinion, will these dollars they have
piifcred from the public treasury cat
their conscienccs like q Damascus blade
as they arc spent for their pleasure. If
an outraged and wrongcd public will not
rise up and denounce such wrong-doers,
it will soon become popular to steal on
a large scale, when nothing moro than
few years imprisonment is to be the
only punishment. Wearing q striped
suit for four or Ave years for stealing
million OF dollars will not be accounted
severe, when the criminal, atthe expira
ton Of his term of service, can minsle
again with his fellows and meet no

The Secretary OF the navy mas SEM
The following letter to the Speaker Of
the House Of Representatives, which has
been referred to the committee On ap.
preparations
Under the circumstances Of the pres
ent emergency, / am compelled to ask
that special appreciation be made TO Gov
er the expense of putting the IRON clads
and cruisers of the navy Of the United
States in condition for immediate and
active service. l have taken measures
to put every available iron clad and
wooden ship of our navy in condition
for immediate duty. have ordered all
ships OF various squadrons within reach
to rendezvous at hey West. l am in
listing men to supply and fill up crews
for all our vessels. Lhave accumulated
materials, provisions and supplies for
their maintenance and support, and ord.
nance, ammunition and all weapons OF
naval warfare for their use. The cir.
cumstancss which have constrained the
department to this unusual activity and
consequent expenditure arc known to
you and to the country. The fact that
they occurred during the recess Of Con-
cress made it necessary that l shonl,!
myself assume the responsibility OF
prompt action, relying upon the wisdom
and justice Of the people and their rep.
re ,entativcs for. support. l have not,
as yet, exceeded the appropriations for
tho current year; but these measures,
with the cost ofprcparing, Transporting
and concentrating everything necessary
to carry them out, have almost already
exhausted the money Of tho working
bureau of tho department., AMI thus
must be supplied at once if work is to 60
on. The cost of putting our iron-clads
in service-a work already undertaken
and in some instances far advaced-wiiii
also require large appropriation. The
amount required TO reimburse the bu-
reaus so as to carry them through this
year, and also to put all our available
monitors in order, will not be less than
four millions Of dollars. If our force is
to be increased, or if the powerful doub-
ie-turreted monitors MiantOmah, M0rad-
nock and Puritan are to be put in con-
dition for usefulness, at least one mil
lion dollars moro will be required"
