The Caldwell Case.

BY telegram we yesterday laid before the
readers Of the Dispatch the purport Of the
report Of the committee in the CALDWELL
case. II is report that plainly points to en-
pulsion as the only punishment that could
vindicate the dignity of the Senate and meet
the degree of the offence, and yet il switches
of from the direct line that led to this con-
c'usion, and proposes to yacaLe CALDwELL's
election, declaring in void. This conclusion
is shame and impotcnt." The committee
declare that CALDWELL has been guilty of cor
ruption-of acts against the public policy
demoralzing in charactcr-de destructive Of the
freedom and purity of cle,tion-and not 10 he
tolerated dy The United States Senate.
Therefore. what? All would think
that the said CALDWELL, SO practicing
these dislionorabe and vicious arts, should be
expelled from the seat in the lIuitct. States Sc
nate which he holds, as one unworthy to sit
in the body ard one with whom senators
could not hold intercourse. But nothing of
the sort says the committee. What then
Why, that his election acdS, for the reasons
alleged, uoid, and that new election must
be held. II the resolution be adopted and
CALDWELL shall be again elected, what will
be the situationY why, the senators who
will have passed judgement upon him as
having been guilty of corruption in Il base
manner will be compelled to sit with him
and recognize him as an equal! This may
be brought about by the very strange report
of The committee.
What is the meaning Of it? The casc was
not one of contested election. 1t was one
of alleged corruption. The legality of the
ELECTION was not questioned, but it was de-
nounced as corrupt. 1t WIS charged that
Caldwell had got in ny the use of money,
in q manner that was immoral, contrary
to public policy, and injurious to public
virtue and dignity. The charges have been
proved, and the logical sequence was to pro-
nOunce CALDWELL unworthy of the scat be
holds, and so tainted that he could not be
received if reelected to the Senate. But the
committee conclude that all this does not unfit
the man for association with senators of the
United States, bat only renders his election
void! ..-.~tt f 2
Was the. committee perplexed more about
questions that are to come than about CALD-
WELLS casep And were they endeayoring
to render such u judgment as would save
Others who are arraigned, and who have to
run the gauntlet of the trial before the COM
mittees Of Congress? We suspect that this
is the key to this extraordinary decision
Corruption IL too widespread. Partisans
cannot afford to be rigid in judgment. They
cannot afford to inperil friends by the con-
yiction Of CALDWELL. The beds of the cor
ruphonists are to be made soft, and they are
to be shielded from the indignation of pub.
lie sentiment justly fired at the dishonesty
of public men and their fathlessness to the.
public interests. . ~ i've f, 5

The Water-Lines.

In, the New York Legislature on Friday
last a joint resolution was passed confirming
the action of the Eric Canal Board in the re-
ductaon of tolls .ff,y per cenf. 6e'o'o the rates
.fredIa~ 1882. $50 y,s..ss
There was a brief discussion upon this i'm
por,antr resolution, which showed the motive
Of this reduction. 1t was contended In be.
half Of the resolution that the.present tolls
.upou the Erie Canal were building up New
Orleans and Norfolk. All ha there's the
rub. The Chesapeake and Ohio railroad,
which Is the lever that will elevate the great
central water-liue scheme to success, is work
ing its legitimate effects. The officers of the
Erie canal behold In this great railway the
precursor Of theeomiBg work that Is to share
with the Erie the great transportation of the
West, aud they are putting their house in
order for the new competitor.
Well, this is all right. The Erie canal
managers arc acting wisely. and the western
public will be benefited thereby. And 1t
may be pertinently asked, If the bare eS-
"pectation of the central line works such
"good effects, what may We not hope for
"when it shall bc completed?"
But there is one difficulty in the way of the
Erie canal which no joint resolution of the
Albany Legislature can remove. 1t is the
embargo laid upon its operations by King
Frost for FIVE months in, the year. II the
central water-Iine would only supply the
want Of swateE transportation between the
West and Fast during that period of time il
would fully justify the appropriation from
the national treasury necessary to its com
pletion. But it will do more. 1t will assist
all the year in giving transportation to the
immense production of the West, which even
the Erie canal is incapable of accommodating
1t will, moreover, give to the best and most
productive part of the Great West shorter
and of course cheaper way to the Atlantic
and to market than the Erie canal possibly
can.
But there will be enough for all, md that
desideratum with producers-low trciShts-
has been already secured upon the compile
ton of the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad
and the bare expectation of the completion
of its grand auxiliary, the Central Water
Line.
The prospect brightens and widens as
time passes, and we here in Virginia may
web lock forward to the day near Mt hand
when the great line of transportation and
commerce between East and West Willie
across the breast of Virginia, and will diff
fuse throughout her entire bordersa pros
perity magnificent beyond the predictions
of the most ardent and sanguine imagina-
tiOn
