We have received a circular in adj
voeacy of Vandall's bill to provide for
permanent Code Commission, which,
we presume, is from the pen of Hon.
Charles Lindley, member of the first
Code Commission, who resigned when
he found the Codes were to be hurriedly
adopted, and who has recently issued
athoughtful pamphlet upon the proper
mode and means Of finishing the work.
We quote:
"Sink persons out of sight and hear
ing, but give ear TO the voice of his
tory, reason, experience, knowledge
and proof, from whatever source they
come. "Hear me for my cause, and
be silent. that you may hear 1.-THE
cause of law reform-of bringing order
out of chaos-of perfecting the Codes
of preventing a complete disintegra-
ton of the embryo Code system
1.-THE Legislature will save the Su-
preme Court one-half of its labors, the
people one-half Of the amount now ex-s
pended in litigation, and will substi-
tute expedition, certainty and economy
for the laws delay the claws UNI
certainty" and the claws expense"
by making reasonable expenditure,
and by having reasonable patience, in
well-directed efforts to give perspicuity
and certainty to the law in the first in
stance. The Supreme Court is loaded
down with questions, created by the
most thoughtless, laundering express
S aons, and for which there can be no
apology or excuse, except that the
Legislature has been misled by those
who ought to have been correct guides,
or has not fully c0mprehended the
time required to make Codes, and the
great final economy which would re-
suit from obtaing a clear, settled sys-
tenn. The Bar has not done its part in
placing this system on q scientific
plane. y.as....s-.ss.....-.-...
"The question ofeconomy when raised
as an objection to permanent Law
Commission, is entirely out of place.
Ultimate economy is its strongest re-
commentator. Probably there has
already been and will be losses and

sary crude condition -Of-the Codes to

fouryears, ycan advantageously employ

Eugene andHer Son.

The Empress Eugene has not many
English friends, but her son takes
home companion now and then from
Woolwich One who knows him well
tells me he is being tutored beyond all
reason. From the moment he gets up
until the time he goes to bed he is I'M
der this forcing pressure, and the re-
suit is that he looks but sicl1ly plant.
He seems to get thinner and paler as
he become sensible of the expectations
formed of him and as he strives to an
swer them. The mother is the type of
a Spanish bigot, and already the boy
chafes under the perpetual round of
ceremonies and confessions. The EN-
press is now so completely under the
influence Of her priests that she has
become prOselytist, and lore than
one OF her English visitors have been
embarrassed by receiving at her hands
what would be called in Protestant
phraseology s'religious trocis.'' and
what are really controversial books
on Roman Catholic theology In pre-
senting them, she invites attention to
passages which she has marked and
which bear more especially upon the
errors of the reformed religion She
speaks English pretty freely, though
with strong accent; the Prince, of
course, understands our tongue,
though he also preserves an accent
1t is said that he is about to leave for
a sojeurn to Switzerland. His report
ed desire to escape the hands of the
clerical friends Of his mother is not
likely to be indulged by his guardians,
for there is little doubt that the priests
in France, under Jesuit impulsion and
with the Pope's consent, are effecting
change of front in going from legit
imacy to imperialism. The seizure of
which we hear to day, of the st Cher
on correspondence, places this almost
beyond question. M. de st. CheIon,
whose autographed correspondence -
was taken by all the Catholic papers
in France, from being an able and ac-

to the mot d'ordre of the Jesuits, with
whom he is afiated, passed over to the

INTERNAL REFORM. .


The success which has attended the
effort of this Administration to effect
internal reform is forcibly indicated,
but only partially measured, by these
facts:
First. In thirteen years it has not
once been forced to resort to loans
except by the exigencies of war. Our
rivals in popular favor, as has been
seen, repeatedly resorted to loans in
time of peace.
Second. In six years taxes have been
remitted at various times amounting
to more than three hundred millions
annually.
Third. The principal of the public
debt has been reduced in the same time
by the sum of three hundred and fifty
five million dollars.
Fourth. The Treasury note has been
appreciated from 76 2-1O per cent, its
gold value in March, 1869, to 80 2-1O
per cent, it's gold value in March last
Fifth. In spite of the financial dis
asters which overlook the country in
September, 1873, the public was di-
minished nearly five millions during
the fiscal year just ended.
Sixth. The cost of the Government.
excluding expenditures for improve
ments and disbursements made neces-
sary to meet obligations imposed on us
by the rebellion, was less per capita
during the last fiscal year than during
the year ending June 30, 1860.
Bad men, doubtless, are still left in
the Republican party, as bad men are
in the Democratic party. So good men
are in both parties. The difference is
this: In spite of the bad men in the
former, it has in thirteen years raised
the country higher in true national
greatness than any country was ever
raised before in the same length of
time; while, because of bad men in the
other party, the country constantly de-
clined in character and dignity while
IL had control A party better than
either. loftier in its aspirations, wiser
in its methods, bolder in its endeavors,
is nquestionably desirable. Such q
party might be attained, If the wise,
the upright, and the patriotic in the
Democratic ranks would unite them.
selves with the like in the Republican
organization. But it is impossible to
frame such party by reinforcing the
ettete Democracy, which has not
achieved single noble end, nor set
before the country single noble aim
in forty years, with all the reckless
adventurers and hungry place hunters
who in former years fOcked to the
Republican party, not to aid its enter

- The Republican State Central
Committee met at Columbus on the
18th inst. The meeting was we'll at

have prevailed. The time agreed up
on for holding the Republican State
Convention was the I'd of September
A free interchange of opinion was

party. Everything seemed to indi,
