National Republican. (Washington City (D.C.)) 1872-1888, 1875-02-02

WE KNOW of no object which appeals
more strongly to the aid of Congress than
the Industrial Home School of the Dis
trict of Columbia. This deserving iIrstitu-
ton now asks an appropriation of S25, 900
to purchase and erect suitable building,
and many Numbers of Congress seem luke
warm about awarding any sum Of money
from the United States Treasury to aid
charitable institutions in the District, al
leging that Congress has done allitcan do for
the District, and that the Treasury is now
in an impoverished condition. This may
do very well to say about a lobby scheme,
but not in regard to an undenominational
charity of such merit as the Industrial
Home School possesses. Children Of both
sexes are taken in, clothed, fed and sup
ported, are given good educations, are
taught trades, and when old enough are
provided with situations. They are reared
from paths of vice 10 callings OF virtue,
and are thus educated to possess those
qualities which must be inherent in every
good citizen. We are informed by the
officers that this institution must be closed
if the appropriation asked for is not granted,
and thus many homeless orphans may be
cast upon the world to lead, probably, lives
of shame or die a drunkard's death, or,
what's worse. may perish unwept, I'M
known and unhonored. By all means let
this appropriation be granted. Congress
has not extended any aid to this District
this session worth speaking Of and the
Treasury is not in such an impoverished
condition to feel the appropriation of this
mite, and the wants Of this section will
warrant the granting of the aid asked fer.
Like appropriations are made to support
denominatiOnal institutions and why not
support one with equal merit, and which
provides for Jew and Gentle, Protestant
and Catholic alike? We call the particular
attention of the Senate Committee on the
District of Columbia to these undisputed
and selfevident facts. We will also add
that this institution is a regularly chartered
school, and has been supported by Volun-
tary contributions for seven years, and has
never received an appropriation from Con-
Cress

ANOTHER nay GoEE

The House spent yesterday another prof
itless day, with the single exception OF
passing the bill to pay the interest on the
365 bonds issued by the District.
The Democrats first tried to have the
continuation of the reading of the
Journal, which was closed by the
adjournment Saturday. This was ruled
out by the Speaker: They then OBJ
jected to the reference of any resolution
or any proposition to to change the rules to
the Committee on Rules. This being ruled
in order by the Speaker, an appeal was
taken by Mr.. Randall, which was laid on
the table by q strict party vote. Mr.. Haw-
ley, of Connecticut, then got in a motion
to suspend the rules and pass bill to en-
large the Hygeia hotel on the Government
land at Fortress Monroe. This very i'm
portant matter being disposed Of, Mr..
Maynard attempted to suspend the rules so
as 10 allow farmers TO sell their tobacco In
lots not exceeding $50 worth at a time, ex-
empt from internal revenue tax. or course
If the proposition had become law, no
farmer would sell moro than $50 worth OF
tobacco ut q time, but would sell a great
many times till he had disposed of his crop
A resolution was passed to make 1t In
order TO tack on TO the Post Office appro-
nriailon bill certain amendments about ad.
yertisinp, and Mr.. Fort of Illinois, got
Dassed resolution 10 make It In order to
nut on to the same bill proposition that
public documents might be sent through
The mails at two cents pound.
All this while the great business Of the
day-the attempt to so change the rules so
that the majority could 60 on with the

public business-wasted. At last, about
O'Clock, Mr.. Butler got in a resolution to
suspend the rules so that the Committee on
Rules might report forthwith an amend
ment to prevent flibustering, such as was
witnessed last week That required two
thirds majority and was voted for by every
Republican present except Mr. Sener, Of
Virginia. But unfortunately there were
so many gentlemen absent on the Republi.
can side that the proposition failed by two
votes less than q two.thirds vote. The

We HAVE heretofore had fears regard
ing WatteTson-Henry, we mean-cears
that he may slop over some day and add to
the list of names of glorious laundering
countrywide, Yahoo martyrs, one that
will serve to point a moral and adOrn a
tale, as an awful example Of terrapin eat
ing in May. But now we have confes-
sion from his own pen in the columns of
the Courier Journal that the much de-
rided dish of May terrapin was served up
by one "Of Grant S most loyal heroes" In
this we find promise of his future safety
We know now that the Great Western
Spring Terrapin Eater will reverence the
colored race as the incidental promoters of
gastronomic qualification, and that for the
sake of spring terrapin, if for no other rea-
son, he will exert himself to provide pos
sibility that he may enjoy the same blessing
again between his champagne and sherry.
Thanks to that most loyal hero the
country is safe from red handed assassina-
ton, because the hero aforesaid did placate
the terrible hatred of our much-erring
Henry. The confession to which we al
lude is, to be sure, interspersed with
frantic declarations about zone man power"
"a dynasty" "a military dictatorship"
and 'throat-cuttiDg programmes, but it
also includes an admission that Henry
reads THE NATIONAL REPUBLICAN "regu-
larly." This admission is, after all, the
salt that will save him, the leaven that
leaveneth the whole Loaf compositor is
directed not to spell loaf with an err So
we repeat that we have hopes for Henry,
if he has his health and lives long enough.
But we don't exactly comprehend his
familiarity with medical terms. His allu-
sion to a secondary case of political
syphilis, is novel in its way and striking.
We have no doubt, however, that the
smile was manufactured for home con-
sumption, and that the class of people
who read the COurier-JournaI, especially
those who read our Henry's letters from
Europe, understand it thoroughly-ifh he
don't himself

1nnAs 1snAR1nr sENEp,

James B. Sener, of Fredericksburg, Va,
probably owes more to the Republican
party than any other member of the pres
ent House of Representatives who has,
like Sener, proved to be political recreant
and moral coward. At the Philadelphia
Convention, when President Grant was re-
nominated, this man Sener, as a delegate,
inflicted upon the vast assemblage in the
Academy Of Music a harangue regarding
the physical bravery and moral courage
required of men in the Southern States who
assumed to uphold the principles of the
Republican party. He was allowed to per-
petrate this infiction through sheer pity for
his excited condition, which had previously
induced him to make some remarks reflect
ing upon the inclination of the convention
to hear the appeals of Southern delegates.
The convention patiently endured the
harangue, although it was ill-timed and ILL
humorcd, because the majority was anx-
ious, notwithstanding the interference with
the progress Of important business, to give
every possible encouragement to native
Southern Republicans When the cam
paign opened Mr.. Sener was boosted into
Congress on the shoulders of President
Grant, and thereby exalted into a prom;-
nence which his somewhat mediocre ability
did not justify. Always thereafter looked
upon as a every weak sister," he was
further encouraged to remain true to the
principles Of the party, and allowed against
serious protest to run for reelection last
fall without having submitted his claims to
q regular party convention. After all this,
and after having shown the weakness of
his following by being beaten for re-elec-
ton by Major B. B. Douglass, this man
yesterday walked over to the Democratic
side of the House, joined the enemies of
the party TO which he owes so much, and
deliberately voted with them against strict
party measure, the object of which was to
deprive the Democratic minority of its
power to dictate what legislation shall be
enacted by the Republican majority. We
can only account for this political treachery
with the assumption that the sound thrash
ing he received at the hands of a gang of
rOwdy Conservatives during his last cam
paign has so thoroughly demoralized him
as TO paralyZe any ambition he may have
heretofore cherished to be recognized as
a Republican. For his good name and
fair fame it would have been better if the
rowdy gang to which we allude had broken
his neck, instead of his very weak arm.

THE TRIBUNE ON SPECIE PAYMENrs-1I

The paramount importance of the finan-
cial question justifes further allusion to an
article on the subject in the Tribune Of
recent date. The hardihood of that journal
in attempting to sport with recommenda-
ton the practicability of which experience
has demonstrated, is only comprehensive
upon the gratuitous assumption on its part
ola total want of acquaintance by the people
of this country with the financial history of
other nations. And upon no other theory
can we reconcile its apparently serious at
tempt to compare the financial affairs of
France with those of the United States, be-
tween which there is no more similarity
than between the just and digniied Tribune
founded by Horace Greeley and the hybrid
anomaly Of to day bearing the same name.
The Tribune sagely concludes that because
six or eight hundred millions of dollars in
coin are held by the banks and people of
France in ordinary times, and the paper
circulation of the country rarely exceeds
two hundred millions, we cannot expect to
resume specie payments. until we have &C.
Cumulated an amount of specie likewise
commensurate with the aggregate of our
paper circulation. The experience of all
nations enjoying the convenience and in
calculable benefits of q convertible paper
currency refute so glaring an absurdity.
The financial history of England furnishes
a noted example to the contrary. The
Bank Of England maintained specie pay
ments through the whole Of the panic Of
1867, and sustained the banks of the United
Kingdoms with but $1,000, 900 in its vaults
against demand liabilities of nearly $685..
100000, as shown by It's statement Of the
18th Of November, the day the Palmerston
ministry suspended the operation of the
bank oct Of 1874. The temporary revoca.
ton Of this act was not, as popularity sup.
posed In this country, q suspension Of
specie payments, but the assent OF the Gov
eminent ~ an unlimited issue OF notes by
the bank, regardless Of the amount Of specie
on hand to secure their redemption. The
banks Of Scotland afford still moro notable
refutation OF this absurd assumption Of the
Tribune, the whole business of which Is
conducted on the smallest imaginable basis
of specie-rarely exceeding fifteen per cent.
Of their demand obligations. The expert.
ence Of the banks Of New England may
also be cited as establishing the converse of

TUESDAY Neutrality-suspicious. :. 1873.

THE House yesterday just saved the Dis
trict credit and the Governments plighted
faith by passing the Senate bill to pay the
interest due yesterday on the guaranteed
bonds of the District. The coupon is made
payable at the Treasury of the United
States, New York and Washington. A
number of gentlemen in both Houses, who
are deeply conscious of the gross injustice
done to the legitimate creditor of the Dis
trict, only waived their purposes to remedy
the defects of this bond for the time being
so that the coupon maturing yesterday
could not go to protest. The purpose to
make the bonds as good as the joint inves-
tigating committee assured the creditors it
would be is an honorable Ole, and one
which is readily recognized by all just men
when the facts are considered. 1t will not
be killed because its promoters refuse to re-
spoEd to the demands Of the ''independ-
