THE APPROPRIATION ACT.

Early yesterday morning the Secro-
tary of State consulted Attorney Cen
eral Field in regard to the request made
by Lieutenant Governor Antoine and
Speaker Hahn, in relation to the appro-
priation bin. They charged that the
bill. as deposited in the Secretary of
States office, is Il forgery, and requested
the Secretary to revoke and anuul his
proclamation of the same made official
ly i'll the Republican. The Socrctary's
consultation with the Attorney General
resulted in decision that he had no
authority to revoke the PRONUNCIATION.
The bill came to him from the Cover
nor, who had approved it. His APP
prevail was deemed as good authority
to the mind of the Secretary that it
was correct; and when the act reached
him through the proper channel he
had = simple duty to perform, aud that
was to furnish y certified copy TO the
official journal for publication. This
hc had done, and there his duty in con-
nection with the bill ended. If the act
as ii came from the Governor was not
correct copy OF the bill which passed
the General Assembly, aud was nttcsted
by the officers thereof, il was no fault
of the Secretary; nor docs he seen, TO
consider that it is any part Of his bust
ness to investigate Il matter OF this
kind.
The PRONUNCIATION OF the bill will
probably stand. AS il has been asserted
that the appropriation bill as it passed
the Legislature, and was approved by
the Governor and sent to the Secretary
of state, had been destroyed, it may be
proper to state here that his is not the
ease. The original copy Of the bill as
sent TO the Secretary OF State is now on
tile i'll that Office. An inspection of the
bill will satisfy any one that changes
have been made, bat hy whom OF where

\ NORTHERN TOWN.

If you will take your maps and look
in the Northern part of Norway, you
may soc the name of llamnaerftsst there
IN small letters, but if not, the town it.
self Is situated in latitude 20 40 so that
You Will know very nearly where IL is.
Wen, this little town of 2O57 inhabi-
iantS is said to- he tho most northcrly
ono in the world. There arc probably
scattered families and individuals that
live farther nortf, but no more nOrthcr-
~ organized city or village. The
principal business OF Tho people Is fish
ing and tho manufacture Of cod liver
oil, and the odor of the oil makes it II
very disagrccablc place to stay in eX-
ccpt for those who arc used to it. Tho
sun scts there November 18th, and
rises january 18th, so that tho children
have to go to school with lanterns
whenever the moon DOESN'T shine, for
about six weeks. But then, again, to
make up for it, in tho Sum
mcr the same sun rises June lst and
does not set until July 22nd. The long
day must DO as unpleasant ,s tho long
niGht. We should think the poor lit
tie things would got bcwildcrcd and
forget whom TO go TO bed and when to
get UP. SNtf they manage to bc as
| healthy and happy us If thcy went to
bed ana rose with the sun as you do,
and would DO rs unwilling to change
places with you as you would with
them. AS for their food IL gentleman
writing from there says they have fish
and reindeer for breakfast, reindeer
and fish for dinner, and for supper
some more fish and reindeer. Goat
and reindeer abound but there are only
six horses in Tire place. Would you
not like to 1.-Two there?

TIE CASE or JTDGE FISHE2.

If we are anxious for The removal Of any
conspicuously corrupt or incompetent Federal
Office -hOder The best way, under ordinary cir
cumstanccs, is to say nothing about il. The
President as q rule will not withdraw man
while he is under fire, and the first principle
of government, according to the prevailing
theory in Washington. is to vndicatc all the
appointees OF the Administration from the
ISLANDERS OF an unhIidled and licentiOus press,
1T whatever cost to the national good name
and revenue. Mr.. Dclano was all ready
to go-had his valse packed aud his hat ia
his hand-when the newspapers unfortunately
expressed their satisfaction at getting lid OF Il
Cabinet officer whose official career had been
great scandal, and thcreupon Mr.. Delano
was sent back TO his desk. What 20 out upon
conpuSion No, were he at the strappado or
all the racks in the world, Grant would never
allow one of his men to resign upon the com
pulsion of the unbrded and liccntious press.
The Secretary should stay until the news
papers learned to keep their vulgar mouths
shut, and then he should depart in style and
say he went Of his own accord. Hence il may
be rash for This same icentiOus press to dis
turb by ITS clamor the balance Of forces which
keeps Judge Fisher QuiNering On the ragged
edge Of dismissal for if the newspapers say
he ought 10 go out, the President is very likely
to answer, "Then he shall stay i'm
Perhaps, however, as we have two or three
Cabinet officers on our side, we may be al
lowed TO remind the President that although
the District Ring indeed "cannot afford TO
"have change in Judge Fishers Office" the
Republican party, which is Il much more i'm
poltant body, cannot afford any longer to be
ruled by the ignoblc combination which, after
being exposed and disgraced i'll Washington,
seems TO be as high as ever in favor at the
White House Democratic House of Repre-
scutatives will soon assemble at the CAPT
tai, and whatever scandals remain I'M
toached at that time will be dragged
to light in no gentle spirit. Judge Fishers
office, If Judge Fisher is then in it, will be
ransacked much more cffectually than il was
iy the Safe Conspirators, and it is pretty well
known that an explosion of II startling kind
will be likely to follow such an investigations
The only question il who shall have the credit
of making the reform. Even Republican poll
ticians are beginning to take this view of the
situation, and some of the loudest demands
for Judge Fishers immediate departure come
from the orthodox Republican press which,

taken in one OF two at time, and were al
lowed to answer only yes or no to the ques-
tons which were put to them. They were for
hidden to state anything which they did not
know from personal observation. For instance,
if the accounts of one month compared with
another showed great excess of cattle de-
lvered in comparison with the number OF
Indians to be fed, so that it was plain
there was fraud Mr.. Harris would not
allow witnesses to testify as to the
results of such comparison unless they could
speak from personal observation. Mr.. Harris
frequently, during the examination, consulted
with Messrs. Cowan and Smith, and made no
secret of br0wbeatng witnesses who were not
disposed to testify in their favor. His whole
purpose seemed to be to bring out as little
truth as possible. Gen. Fisk says Mr.. Dclano
had nothing to do with appointing the Examln-
ing Commission. There was apparently no
need for that since Gen. Fisk's Board is so
careful of Mr.. Dclano's welfare as to select
man like Mr. Harris, whose appointment throws
discredit upon the whole Commission.

Administration. is of course neither scurrilous
nor unbrldled.
If Gen. Grant watches the currents OF public
opinion, he must have observed that all his
recent steps in the direction of reform, the
changes in the Cabinet, the war against the
Whisky Ring, the new policy toward the
South, have been recognized with the greatest
cordality and frankness by those who have here
tofore been his sharpest critics. The people have
not forgotten his great services to the coun-
try and have not yet lost al the enthusiasm
with which they heard Ais name seven years
ago. before he had surrounded himself with
bad advisers and corrupt servants. Nothing
pleases them so much "a to find an Opportu-
nity to praise him. by a few judicious changes
in the public Offices he might easily win back
most of the popularity he has lost, and re-
store his shattered party. Is 1t really worth
while for him to give up everything to please
