Gus last night measures were in
augurated looking to a thorough
examination of the course Of the
President and of his Cabinet in

The impeachment of Grant was
discussed, and it was determined,
in case it was found that he had in
any way violated the Constitution,
that articles of impeachment would
be prepared at an early day.
Senator Terry will resign the
Presidency of the Senate, and
Sherman will DO elected. This is
regarded as significant. His bro

See, for one moment, how pernicious must
be the Presidential example. First in place,

others will do. What he fails to do others
will fail to do. His standard of conduct will
be accepted, at least by his political support.

of duty will be the pattern for the country. If
he appoints relations to Office and repays gifts
by official patronage. making his Presidency
"a great gift enterprise. may not every Office
holder do likewise, each in his sphere, SO that
nepotism and giit-taking officially compen-
stated will be general, and gift enterprises be
multiplied indefinitely in the public service?
If he treats his trust as plaything and per-
quisite, why may not every Office holder do
the same? If he fraternizes with
jobbers and Hessians, where is the limit to

LATEST From HAVANA

HAVANA, March 16.-The Captain General
has issued decree regarding fioances which
is published by the Gaceta. Il absolutely
abolishes Is and 10 per cent taxes, and the
tax of $1,000 on slaves in lieu thereof. It i'm
poses direct taxation of $50. 600. 900 on the
whole island, of which Havana is to pay $l2,-
100000. The entire expenses of the Island
mum, of which SAG, OOO, 600 is provided for by
receipts from customs and sources other than
direct taxation This leaves q balance of
$50, 900, 600 to be raised by additional tax
alton in order to release the Treas
ury of the island from the floating debt
recognized to Jan. !, 1876. The government
will issue eight per cent bonds to the amount
Of $l8,O0o, 900. Whenever certificates of in
debtedness are presented these bonds will be
given. The amount of bonds remaining
after the payment Of all debt is to be used to
retire the notes of the Spanish bank.
The government will settle its discounts
with the Spanish Bank at the earliest possible
date. The government will retire $4,000 Of
these bonds semi-annually. The present de-
cree places the receipts and expenditures
Of the island treasury before the people in an
Ineligible manner, and promises q mode of
administering effairs much less costly than
hitherto.

lish decree reforming the administration

mated that 27O or more civil employees will
be discharged from their places in Havana
