THE TEXAS PACIFIC RAILWAY.
FAIR STATEMENT OF THE QUESTION.
IFrom the PHILADELPHIA Time,

From the Philadelphia Tmes.l
Whether Congress should loan the credit OF
the government to the Texas Pacific Railway,
under such restrictions and control as will
protect the government to the utmost is q
question that should be considered solely on
its merits. The people do not brighten and
founder into corner on any such issue If 1t
has truth and justice to sustain it. If the
government will save annually nearly or quite
the amount of interest on the cost of the con
struction of the line in transporting supplies
and in protecting the remote settlements, there
is nobody out Of Congress so stupid or SO
cowardIy that he would not construct the
road.
The sooner those who claim to be our states
men appreciate the fact that the people want
lust what is right, and neither more nor less,
the sooner will speculation in our natl onal
highways cease, and the government and its
frontier settlers be protected from needless
waste of millions of money and of thousands
of valuable lives. The supreme want of the
nation to. day is an open highway from the
Atlantic to the Pacific. 1t is wanted to en-
large our commerce, to quicken our trade, to
facilitate our travel, to cheaper our transpor-
tation, to protect our frontiersmen, and to
make civilization and peace reign in the dis
tant territories. 1t should be done for no in
dividual speculation or advantage; it should
be free from the entanglements of the specu-
lator; it should be organized and conducted
only on sound business principles and with
out peril to one dollar of the national contri-
button, and, if this be done, who would not
welcome such a chaplet in the crown of the
progress and grandeur of our free institutions?

The Status Of Mr.. Ferry as President O
the Senate.
Especial to the N. Y. World. |

Especial to the N. Y. World.l
WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-THE Republican
leaders in both houses of Congress are sorely
troubled upon subject which, although ii
involves remote contingency, is still of a
character to cause them alarm. Mr.. Ferry,
as President pro tenn. of the Senate, is not
satisfactory to perhaps maj ority of the body,
certainly not to a majority of the Republican
members An informal caucus was held this
morning, at which Mr.. Edmunds, Mr.. Morton
and others were present The whole subject
was discussed by them, and the resolution
subsequently, submitted by Mr.. Edmunds in
the open session of the Senate was the ex-
preston of the unanimous opinion of those
who were in consultation. Mr.. Ferry is not
disposed to surrender the position which he
claims he has consttutionally gained without
a struggle He maintains that no matter
what action the Senate n ay take in the cleo
ton of presiding officer pro tempore of the
Senate, he is under the law and the Const-
tuition, the Vice President of the United
States, and in the event of the death of the
President the legal successor to the Office
Some of the older Republican Senators are in.
clined to dispute this proposition, and an
effort will be made to settle the question in a
way which will place the matter beyond all
controversy.

GRANT, FISH AND CuBA.-A Washington dis
patch says: Grant is still cudgeling his
brain on the subject of Cuba, and it now tran.
spires that he and Secretary Fish are deci-
dedly at variance upon several points involved
in the question. Fish is opposed to any inter-
ference whatever by our government whether
in the shape of recognition or belligerency. or
of independence or offer of mediatlon. Grant
is in favor of the latter policy. Fish promul-
gated his views through the correspondence
Of the New York Tribune yesterday. To-mor-
row Grant will set forth his in a double loaded
1ealer in the Repu5icaa.

What The President and All of Us
Approve"

Gen. Sheridan was sent to New Orleans, a
year since, with full authority to control the
United States soldiers there He quietly wit
messed their raid upon the Legislature when
they broke it up. He then took command
formally, and held the Legislature at bay
He continued the outrage which he had wit
messed and permitted Secretary Belknap
telegraphed to him: "The President and all
of us thoroughly approve your course"
This was sent out on the 9Th of January
last. Now 'the President and all of us" agree
again in removing General Henderson, the
most powerful and efficient of all the prose-
cItors of the whisky rings, for saying that the
President improperly interfered in the duties
of Commissioner Douglass. The present
administration is conducted on the idea of
dictatorship. When Gen. Terry manufactured
a Legislature in Georgia, ordered it to assem-
BILE, and with cannon planted around the
Capitol, ordered it to ratity the proposed fif-
teenth amendment, President Grant tele-
graphed to him: Il approve your course. =

THE POSTMASTER GENERAL s PLAN FOR THE EX
CHANGE OF REGISTERED POUCHES.
The Postmaster General, in the course of 6
few weeks, will put into operation an extended
plan for the exchange OF registered pouches
between important distributing offices. liz
these pouches all letters mailed to the eX
change Office are inclosed, accompanied by a
letter bill, showing the numbers of each pack
age, and receipt given for the pouch obvi-
ates the necessity of receipting each package
separately, thereby saving great deal of time
and trouble to postal clerks and others,
who are the proper custodians thereof while
in transit. These pouches have been placed
on through lines between Boston and New
Orleans and New York and San Francisco, in
GLIDING in the scheme all important interme-
diate post-offices.
The Postmaster General, from experien ce
already gained, says that 1T is no longer an
experiment, but very successful enterprise,
and should be extended as rapidly as circum-
stances will admit. New and distinctive
pouches for this service will be distributed
at an early day, and as they will be handled
and guarded with especial care by those en-
trusted with their custody, greater security
will be afforded. These pouches are made OF
white buck, with red stripes and blue field in
the center, with -the words, "Registered
Pouch" The value Of the registered letter
system is apparent in the transactions OF the
Postoffice Department.
All packages of postage stamps, stamped
envelopes, newspaper wrappers, postal cards
and other valuables forwarded to postmaster5
are registered before they are transmitted
through the mails. These packages are sent
to every postoffice in the United States, and
during the last fiscal year they aggregated
359, 462. valued at S25, 477,5l1 "a, The num-
Der OF registered package envelopes issued to
postmasters during the fiscal year 1873 "a
was 2,922000, and during the year 1874 70
was $4,000, an increase of Isl, 900. or Is
per cent. This is considered fair percent
age of the growth of the system.

The Republican majority IN the Senate want
to get Mr.. Ferry out of the chair There are
some difficulties in the way, of peculiar
character, and, indeed, it is questionable il
Mr.. Ferry has been President pro tenn since
the opening of the Forty.fourth Congress- in
which place Mr.. Kerr represents the late Vice.
President, and would seat himself in the
White House should Gen. Grant die, for the
following reasons The Constitution, article
III, section g. declares that:
Congress may, by law, provide for the
case OF removal, death, resignation or inabl-
lty both OF the President and Vice. President
declaring what officer shall then act as Presi-
dent; and such officer shall act accordingly,
until the disability be removed, or a Presi
dent shall be elected
Congress in 1892 passed law to carry out
this provision of the Constitution. That law
IS contained in section LAG of the Revised
Statutes, namely:
'ln case of removal, death, resignation or
inability of both the President and Vice Pres
ident of the United States, the President of
the Senate, or, If there is none, then the
Speaker of the House of representatives for
the time being shall act as President until the
disability is removed or a President is
elected"
Jefterson's manual says that President pro
tempore, in the absence of the Vice President
can be chosen by ballot, and his eff ,e is de.
termined son the Vice President appearing
and taking the chair. or at the meeting of the
Senate after recess" Mr.. Ferry was elected
last March. Mr.. Wilson is dead, has not an
peared or taken the chair, and the Senate
chose no one to preside after the recess. It
would appear from this that the Office is
vacant, and many persons learned in the
law" have SO stated. Consequently, Mr..
Ferry seems to be out and Speaker Kerr in
the line of succession to the Presidency. The
Committee on Privileges and Elections, how
ever, which has charge of Senator Edmundss
recent resolution, will soon report on this in
teresting matter. Couvier-Jo,11tal.
