In another column will bo found m ab-
stract Of Il letter by THun1ow WEED, roview-
ing the political situation aud cxplaining tue
causes Of tho recent Republican dcfcat. Mr..
WEED, OF course, finds that tho party was
bad]y hurt by baok-pay, snnbornism, TreHs-
ury inbeci'cs, Shepherd, and tho rest.
Ha thinks, too, that tho third-term
cry frightened n,nny; but, strangely enough,
l1o scarcely touches at all upon that most po-
tentof all causcs-th panic, nnsl tho vague tin
rcst growing ont Of il nmong tic poorer classes.
Mr.. Webs letter is most emphatic in TINT
),nrs which touches upon tho sauander-
ing Of tho public domain in snb-
silies aud bountics. l1o argues, not
in distinct terms, 1t Is true, but implicitly,
TINT tho Government Is poorer for orory acre
of lanl it has given nway. Wo are not pro.
pared to no the whole length with MIR. WEED,
but there certainly is much in what lie
Gays; and hia estimate Of tho grca'
rcsourse which tho Government would have
in this hour Of It's emergency, If It's affairf
had boon rradc1tiy administered, is enough
to stir The most bcnorolont heart with fool
ings Of relnorsc. We hope 10 rccur to Mr.
NEEp's letter in future issue.

Tho lates. compromise offered by tho Con.
seryativo members Of tile Louisiana 1cgis]a-
turo appears, ut this distance md viewed
through tho luminous transparency OF New
York Herald special, to bo a remarkable prop
osition. These nro the terms: The KELLOGG
Government to bo recognized and upheld rs
do .};,cto rs long as it is sustained by President
GRANT; the Lower House Of tho Legislature
to bc roorganizcd with Conservative
majority, according TO tho judgment
Of tho Congressional Investigating Com
lnittee tho Senate to take care Of itself,
with tho tacit understanding that it Is not to
DO disturbed; tho Conservatives not to ac-
knowledge KEllouo ns Governor by right, or
the HA1fS Legislature Il having boen in OK
;stcncc. a majority Of tho Congressional
Committee, tho dispatches publiOhcd ycster-
dny say, will report in favor Of most Of the
concessions demanded by tie Conservatives.
We have attempted to show in another col.
umn this morning why 1t is unlikely the re-
port will bo adopted, and in what respcct IL
is detective. It will DO observed TINT tho OBJ
jections to tue report do not extend in their
entirety 10 tho proposition Of compromise;
for tho argument Of the Conservatives, thai
thoy cannot DO expected to concedo more
than tho National Government demands, ia
eminently sound.

The Republican Congressional CAUCUS, rop.
rescntiny the Republican party which existed
in this country two ycars md half ago, has
mot and resolved to put tho ao-callod political

dono without defeating tho appropriation
bills, still it must DO done. Tho rcsponsi-
bility of m extra Gession, say tho ca,s-
cus-1nanagers, will rest with tic Demo-
Gratis; if fictitious opposition Is offered to
the political bills, business must como to q
atand-still. The Republican party which
lives eud moves to-tlay has not, wo imagine,
good opinion Of the political bills; it would

and especially il their defcat would bring

Arr, Ton Scorr, it seems, hns succeeded in
molaing tho National Grange into seeming
Endorsement Of tho Texas Pacific subsidy
which ho Is now trying to procure from Con-
gross. This action of tho National Grange is
utterly ridiculous, in view Of the fact that it
il the ousgrowth-a sort Of fungus growth
Of q movement among the agricultural classes
against the ills they imagined they suffered
from the railroads, and in view Of the other
fact that MI the actual abuses they hayc en-
dured on this account may 10 traced directly
to tho subsidy and protection system, State.
local, and National. Tho effect Of this action
will be rather to bring tho National Grange
into contempt than to help tho ToM scorr
scheme. If tho National Grange rep
resenta anybody, which We question,
it IL tho agricultnrist1 Of the
country who aro on tho record everywhere as
Internationally opposed TO the granting OF
subsidies by Congress. The House Of Rep
resontatigcs has tho aamo record, laid down
in resolution adopted early in the session,
so that We may roasonably doubt A1r. TON
ScoTT's claim that he will have majority Of
tweuty in tho House in favor Of tho bill.

We referred como months ago to Tho Tzoas-
ury regulations which wore calculated to
brenk up tho export Of alcohol from tho
United States, md In fact hal, to gront
extent. Tue rovcnuo ofllcors seem to havo
acted on tho theory that every gallon of high
wines exported from tho country wa8 loss
Of 90 couts rovenuc, aud that, therefore, tho
export trade ought to bo regulated to death.
The regulation intended Tor this p,,rposo ro-
q,ircd that oil bonds given for exported al-
cohol should DO signed by those attea!ipg
TINT they held ssal tstat1 to double tho
amount Of the aun named in tho bond
Merchants who could give bonds tor millions
Of dollars found 1t difficult to obtain s,,scties
who could justify with real estate, anl thus
The trade was crippled by this rulo not ex-
ncted in any othur case. Dir. FAnwEL1 has
aprisa himself diligently to this subject, and
has succeeded in inducing ths Secretary OF
the Treasury 10 rcscind the regulations. Col
