Gen. Babcock's counsel and published by
them for the information of al! parties con-
cernedi And finally, by what authority did
Mr.. Pierrepont interfere at all in the
management of prosecution which the
law commits to the care of the Secretary
of the Treasury These are serious points.
Nobody cares now for their bearing on the
case of Gen. Babcock, for the country is glad
that he got off, and is not disposed to be sus-
picious of improper influences in securing his
acquittal. But there is no room to doubt that
during the past six or seven weeks of these
revenue suits two of the Federal departments
have been playing at cross purposes, and we
have witnessed the astonishing spectacle OF the
United States Government trying to defeat
prosecution brought in its name by its own
officers against persons indicted for defraudng
the revenue. That is the scandal which de-
mands the attention Of the House of Repre-
sentatives, and we trust that the Judiciary
Committee, to which it has been referred, Will
succeed in throwin some light upon it.

MR.. LYON,.y STORY,

The remarkable story of Mr.. James f. Lyon,
rehearsed before the House Committee on
Foreign Affairs is not altogether new. So far
as it relates to his complicated transactions
with AIessrs. Park and Stewart it Is in the
nature of ex-parte testimony, the evidence
offered by plaintiff in his own case, of which
we have no means rs yet of testing the truth.
But it has not been cOntradcted, and in q
great many particulars it is fully confirmed by
what we know from other sources. Moreover,
his narrative of the sale of the Emma Mine in
London, and OF the transactions which grew out
of 1t, is so strictly in accordance with ascer-
tanned facts that the public will naturally be
disposed to believe all the rest of his story.
The English stockholders have already ascer-
tanned by an investigation in London that the
sums which Mr. Lyon mentions as having been
given to Messrs. Albert Grant, Jay Cooke,
McCuloch g. Co., and others, to get the use
of their names and influence, were really paid
to those persons.
With regard to Gen. Schenck, Mr. Lyon
makes a charge which. must he promptly and
thoroughly siGted. Ho asserts that Schenck
did not even give his note for the shares
which he received from Park until Mr.. Blair's
resolution of inquiry had been brought into
Congress- and then the note was given and
antedated merely as blind If this state
ment should prove true, Gen. Schencl's dis
grace is complete and irremediable. We trust
the Committee will look into it without delay.

politics, they consented to occupy the positions
they have been placed in. Whether elected or
defeated they deserve the thanks OF good cit
izens for setting so excellent an exam
pie to the largo class of able and
competent gentlemen, scholars, and profess
siOnal men, who, having no ambition for po-
litical honors and no taste for political life,
refuse to make any sacrifice Of their own
pleasure or convenience to discharge the duty
they owe as citizens to society. Each OF these
gentlemen will, if elected, honor his office far
more than the Office can honor him. The
selection of such ticket is creditable
alike to the gentlemen who consented
to stand upon it and to the Con-
vention which had the intelligence and saga
city to select them. 1t deserves success, and
that is far better than to achieve it. Its cleo
tion in April, as we have said, is not looked
for by the most sanguine, except In some I'M
foreseen emergency. 1t will be renOminated
in all probability for the election which, under
the amended Constitution, takes place in No
vember, and great confidence is felt that IL
will then be successful.
Not less than in the nominations did the
Convention show good sense and great dscre-
They are terscly put and pOntedly expressed,
are pronounced and positive upon the great
questions of the day, particularly upon tho
currency issue, and in no particular are they
hesitating or timid, or of any ambiguous or un-
certain sound. They offer no cvasons, no verbal
tricks, and suggest no concealments nor doubts,
but are as frank, OutSpoken, and direct rs Ian
cuage can make them. There is in them
notable absence of the timidity of power and
the fear of offending the majesty OF the Presl-
dent which led last years Convention into
such n tangle of crookedness. Praise was
given Brstow ind jewell because they de-
serve it, and there the business stopped;
there was no idle comDlimenting OF
officials for the sake of being agreeable. 1t
was, taken all in all, good days work for
Connecticut Republicans, and puts the party
in first-rate position for the Presidential elec-
ton. Both parties have so far done admirably,
and the people of the State, irrespective ef
party, may congratulate themselves upon the
prospect in any event of having an able and
honest State Administration.

THE HEAVENLY MAID IN THE SENATE.

THE HEAVENLY MAID IN THE SENATE.
The recent debate in the Senate on the
West Point appropriations was lively II not
harmonious The House thought So, 1876 worth
of music enough for the School; the Senate
Committee did not see how the institution
could be sustained without an expenditure OF
$14,SSO for 40 performers of marches and
qucksteps. Upon this ensued sutficiency OF
that easy banter which passes for discussion,
Mr.. Logan coming ont strong as the champion
of music, as well as of "pOetry." Did gentle
men wish to drive both these out of the coun-
try7 What would foreigners say OF us If at
the Centennial Exhibition the Government
should not have single band7 Moreover, 1t
was impossible to make good soldiers without
good music, and it was well-known fact
that unless tunes were constantly played to

objected to making "the mass of the people
paw for delightful soirGes and magnificent
balls all "smrOunded by ravishing music"
which was certainly tgurative way of putting
it. The musical tactics at West Point must be
peculiar, and the use Of the band to sur
"round" anything is a maneuver OF which we
now hear for the first time The humor OF
this entertaining debate is speedily disposed
of. Mr.. Logan said the Democracy did not
desire bands. They were in no need OF
"wind instruments" [Laughter.] And MIR.
Bogy retorted that Democrats were not given
"to blowing their own horns" More laugh
teri Thus easily is the gravity of potent and
reverend Senators disturbed!
We remember an old Joe about member
of Congress who opposed bill for "Organ-
"izing" the army because drums and flies were
enough without organs. The economical Mr..
Bogy thinks the spirit-stirring and ear-pierc-
ing instruments enough without French and
German horns and Irish bag-pipes. We agree
with him as to the latter. They are not in
the least ravishing.' If there is any appro-
priation in the West Point bill for bag-pipes,
we are for taking it out.
