CURRENT TOPICS AT THE CAPITAL.


WASHINGTON. Tuesday June 2, 1874
During the consideration of the currency print
ing question before the Committee on Banking and
Currency to-day, Mr.. Hubbard of counsel for the
New-York Bank Note Printing Companies said the
secret process of printing the currency IN the Gov
ernment Printing Bureau, which the Bureau claimed
as preventive against cOunterfeiting, was nothing
more than bath of CASTLE soap and animal glue,
and that persons employed in the Bureau had given
representative of these companies information that
the process was a humbug. Assistant Secretary
SAWYER said if these employees of the Government
knew this secret process humbug, they should
have so stated to the head of the Department instead
of volunteering information to outside hostile
parties If they knew it TO be humbug and
did not so inform the proper authority, they
should be discharged for dereliction Of duty.
f. p Stanton counsel for the Columbian Bank Note
Company, took Issue with Mr.. Hubbard, saying it
could be established beyond doubt that printing
with the proper kind Of sizing was not only guard
against counterfeitng but gave the note additional
durability. Mr. Maynard Chairman of the Com
mittee thought as persons in the Department volun-
tariy gave the information repeated by the counsel
for the Bank Note Printing Companies they should
have noobection to appearing before the Commit
tee and make their statement. Mr.. Hubbard, in
plv TO a demand by several members of the Com
Inittee for names of nfOrmants. said he was not at
liberty 10 give them, but the Committee coud sum-
mon witnesses from the Bureau TO prove whether
the statements true. he further Mid these in
formants were not experts. The Committee took

OUR coyGREssloNALCAND1DATE

The Republican Congressional Con-
vention that met at the Opera House
yesterday, was one Of which the Re-
publicans of this district may well be
proud. 1t was largely attended
larger than any convention of the
kind that has assembled in Knoxville,
for twenty years-and was composed
of substantial farmers, wo'kingmeu
and business men Of the several coun,
ties OF the district.
The best answer that could be made
to the charge 50 freely circulated that
It was packed convention q
ring machine was in the character
of the delegates that composed II. We
/ invite attention 10 the published list OF
delegates in attendance, and ask the
voters of the district if better men
could be convened 20 select o Con-
gre--i0gal candidate.
To-. deliberations We're temperate and
| fair. and every delegate had an oppOr.
tuuily 10 make known his views and
| the wishes of those be cprc,gnted.
The platform adopted Is short and To
the point.
The nominee of the convention ),
beyond question the choice OF three
fourth. of the Republicans of this dis.
trict. auG now thar bee has been fairly
nominated will be elected by the bal
lots OF ui0e.t4nth- Of the Republican,
of the district. Men who assume &c
dictate TO such a convention and bolt
its nomination, not with any hope o.
electnE themselves, but for the pur
pose of defeating the party, and send
ing Democrat to Congress, will fine
the people will turn upon them anC
repudiatp them. Col. ThornburgE
has served his constituents faithfully
and well, and he deserves as he is now
sure to receive a reelection.

AN OUTRAGEOUS ASSERTION
FROM GOVERNOR BROWN.

In the Nashville Banners report Of
Gov. Browns speech at Pulaski, when
discussing the Penitentiary question,
we find the following:
If every man who was present at the
Chattanooga Convention had his Just
deserts, he would now be within the walls
of that prison, and be certainly would not
pardon them out LApplause.l
We learn from a private source,
that the Governor, when he made this
remark, turned to the reporters and
said "you need not report that" The
Union and Aa,soriccn did not report it,
but the Banner did. Now is that not
a dignifed( ?)remsrk for the Govern
OF a great State to make, about men
who are his equals in every respect,
and his superior i'll many? 1t is an
outrage upon truth and disgrace to
its author. II is open announcement
by the Governor of our State, that
Republicans should be within the
walls of the penitentidry, and if
there he would mot pardon them
OUT"
We do not remember to have ever
heard more outrageous, proscriptive
proposition from any source.
Disguised assassins want to
take the lives of Republicans,
and the Governor encourages
them by saying that if the men pres
ent at the Chattanooga Convention
had.their just deserts they - would
now be within the walls of the peni-
Tertiary! Did he mean what he said ;
| if not, why did he say,it?

present at the Chattanooga Conven'
ton, done, that they should be in the

ton of Gov. Brown? What has Hon
Lewis Tillman, a man, WHO'S known
all over the State for his honesty anC
purity of character, done, that he de
serves such punishment as our merci

him ? What has Judge Wisener O
Judge Harrison done? We might ex
tend this list, numbering the best mel
in the State, and inquire why they de
serve to be in the peniteutiary according
10 Gov. Brown? It is a moustrou
, proposition to come from a man VIII
? almost in the same breath in which h
, made the remark, proclaimed that H.
had taken " a solemn oath % punisl
all offenders against the peace and dig
nifty Of the State, and he would carr,
his oath out 20 the fullest extent
If we desired 10 do Gov. Brown al
irrrparable injury, We could not flint
- in our heart TO wish him a more seri
Gus misfortune than 20 make such al
outrageous assertion.

Gov. BROWNS FRIENDS are trying
to make out that his speech consigning
the Chattanooga Republican COnven-
ton to the penitentiary was a joke.
We should like to know the occasion
of using such a Joke" Brown did
turn to the reporters after he made the
outrageous statement and said that
"they better not report that" The
Union and american reporter appre-
ciated the indignation that the incen-
diary declaration would make and
omitted it, but the Banner reporter
published it. He published it Just as
it was said, unaccompanied by any
thing 10 indicate it was q joke. II is
very evident h. did not so understand
it, for he is I'm political sympathy with
Ire Governor, as his paper is, and it
would not have reported it that way If
there had been any doubt about it. We
would be glad to zee a more satisfac-
tory explanation for the sake of the
respectable Democrats who every
where denOunce it, But the joke "
theory is q little late and weak.

JUDGE PORTER AS AN ORIGINAL UNION
MAN.

For the purpose Of reconciling Union
Democrats in East Tennessee, those
who were opposed to secession, and to
get their hearty support for Judge
Porter, it was given out that he was
an original Union man, and was one
Of the last to quit the old flag. This
does not appear true, as will be seen
by the following, taken from the pros
ceediugs of the Legislature on Mon
day, Jan, nth, 1861, and published in
the Nashville Patriot Of the next day
MIR. Porter Of the committee
on Federal Relations, submitted the
following:
RcsOlrCd, That this General Assem-.
bly, has heard with profound regret OF
the resolution recently adopted by the
Legislature OF the State OF New York,
rendering men ana money 10 the Pres.
ideut OF the United States to be used
In c1ercing certain soye. ign States OF
the -Outh into obedience 10 the Fed.
eral Government.
RcSO'ucd, That this General Assem-
bly, receives the action Of the Lpgisla-
lure of New York, as the indication Of
a purpose upon the Tart Of the people
o. that State, To further complicate eX
is.iug difficulties by forcing the people
OF the South to the extremity of sub
