rHE SALARY BmL.--The New York Tribune
thus censures the passage OF this bill
The salary bill, after all, was passed with
the retroactive clause left in it. There is no
possible excuse for this contemplate bit of
sharp practice. The members voted them
selves s., 900 each they did it because they
were hungry for the money and because they
could vote it. This exhibition Of cupidity is
shamefully in keeping with the general charac-
ter of the expiring Congress. The members
who fought the measure chiefly on the ground
that it gave gratuily of So, 900 to each Con-
gresham deserve to be remembered in honor
Poor Senator Craginls plaintive protest that
this unlucky stroke of business would lose
New Hampshire to the Republicans was not
made from a very elevated point of view; but,
practical as il was, it did not deter the Senate
from agreeing to the measure as it WAS finally
passed.. Every carpetbag Senator voted for
the grab.
1t is not very probable that the Republicans
of New Hampshire will object to the passage
of this bil--any bill that appropriates a dol
lar to- a Yankee is looked upon as clean profit
And in this connection we pleased 10 state
that no Maryland Representative held ont the
etching palm" Messrs. Archer and Merrick
voted against the measure, and the names OF
Messrs. Richie, Swami and Hambleton do not
appear in the years and nays. The were pro-
badly absent.

Eighty or ninety of the Cadets at the Naval
Academy at Annapolis, were reported on the
sick list on their return from Washington, the
day after the Inauguration. In order to make
a finer display, they asked permission that
they might appear without their overcoats,
and the result was as stated, the day being
bitter cold. The young men were recovering

BusGLIYG LEGIsLATIoN.-I now turns out
that in the bill passed by Congress increasing
the pay Of the officers of the Government, that
the former salaries were not stricken out, and
MS the bill now stands, they are all entitled to
double pay. OF course, this defect in the law
will be remedied at the next session of Con-
gress, but such laundering doesn't speak very
favorably for members, as it shows a gross
negligence of business. They were so rejoiced
at getting one hand in the public crib shat they
forgot to take the other out.
Since the discovery OF the blunder the Pres
ident has stated that he will receive the $780,
covered back in the treasury. All the others
will take the large pile, of course. Its natur.

LOUISIANA Blood has been shed in New
Orleans. A squad of about so men attacked
the third precinct station on the 9Th inst, and
fred into the station. This attack was from
the McEnery side, and these were met with
about $40 policemen and piece of artillery,
under Gen. Badger, supporters Of the Kellogg
faction, and for about five minutes sharp
firing ensued. One man was killed and sevc-
raj were wounded. United States troops now
occupy the city, supporting the Kellogg gov
eminent, and quiet has been restored. Con-
gress is greatly TO blame that no measures
were adopted to settle the difficulties in this
unfortunate State. 1t is tyrannica and anti
Republican to force the Kellogg government
upon an unwilling people, as the evidence is
strong that the officers composing it were not
fairly elected.

The War ONCE Burglary.


We alluded few days since to the war
Office burglary, by which. it was alleged, all
the more important papers belonging to
the secret-service bureau had been lost. 1t
now seems that, as soon as the intelligence
of said burglary reached the ear of the sec
rotary in whose charge the stolen papers
were supposed to be, he ordered an in
Vestigation. Our Washington special tells
what this investigation has thus far amount
ed to
1T has been in progress for week without any
other result than TO report that so far de those
charged with the inquiry have been able to ascer-
tain, no records arr missing. One great difficulty
in the way OF an intelligent and thorough nyestga
ton has been the fact that it is impossible this
day Tor person who was not in the department
during the late war to tell what has what has not
been stolen OF course, whatever transactions of
this sort took place were consummated long before
Gen. Belknap had anything TO 90 with the depart
ment."
We can readily understand that, if the
examiners did not know what the war Of
fee contained, it would be exceedingly diff
hcult for them to ascertain what, if any.
thing, was missing. But we cannot under
stand how Secretary Belknap can pretend
to discharge his duties faithfully without
keeping an accurate list of the archives
consigned 20 his guardianship. What sort
of war office is it where no catalogue is
kept Of important papers? What sort OF
a war secretary is he who does not know
whether wholesale robbery has been per-
petrated on his premises or not ?
We suggest that both the war Office and
the Secretary Of War are badly in need Of
reconstructiOn-fo both are evidently in a
badly demoralized condition.-Sf. Louis
