THE Democratic majority in the House
added feature to their record of infamy
last week which should not be overlooked.
Pending the consideration of the sundry
civil appropriation bill in Committee of the
Whole they struck out the clause appropri-
ating $25, 900 for the prevention and detec-
ton of crime against the United States.
Subsequently the House restored the clause
by majority of five votes only, the Re
publicans voting solidly for its restoration,
and few liberal Democrats, like Morgan,
of Missouri, for example, voting with
them. The record IS it stands, however,
shows that the Democrats as a body did
everything in their power to kill the ap-
preparation. In other words, they at
tempted to cripple or cut off the resources
of the law department of the Government,
and thereby prevent the prosecution aud
detection of crime. Whether this course
was prompted by their hatred of the United
States Government or their love for law
breakers we leave our readers to judge.

THE TILDEN men at St. Louis are be-
ginning to declare that they do not desire
the repeal or non-adoptIon of the two
thirds rule They are evidently afraid
that if they make fight for that result
the elements opposed TO them in the con-
vention will combine to secure their de-
feat, and that the combination may be
kept up afterwards to defeat their nom
inee. The truth is that New York is so
divided for and against Tilden that he can
not present a solid "fsvorite son" front
Some other New Yorker-Horatio Sey-
mour, perhaps-will consequently be
taken up by the New York delegation
some one who can command their unani-
nous support. If this result should be de-
veloped it is not improbable that the St.
Louis ticket will be Seymour and Hen
bricks.

matters of engineering in the War Depart
ment are usually referred to General Hum
phreys' bureau, it was fair for Mr Esds TO
inter that this refusal to instruct General
Comstock was dictated by General Hum
phreys. - b. =.
For these various reasons MIR. Eids asks
thatGen. Comstock be required to promptly
furnish him with any official information
which he may from time to time acquire,
and which will be useful in protecting his
works from Misrepresentation, or in accom-
plishing the objects of the concession. and
that Gen. Comstock be required to report
directly to the Secretary of War instead of
through the medium of the chief of engi-
neers, and that the latter, as we'll as Capt.
Howell, be interdicted from any Inter
ference whatever with his undertaking.
The people of the valley of the Missis-
sippi have an immense pecunisry stake in
the success of Mr.. Esds' jetties. They
know that he convinced six of the seven
eminent engineers authorized by the last
Congress to investigate the subject that
his Plan of improvement was superior to
the proposed canal, which we are assured
was at first the fsvorite plan of the whole
board. The people know that he fought
his plans through Congress in the face of
an slmost universal popular prejudice in
favor of the canal, and against the most
determined opposition and influence of the
bureau of military engineers. They know
that he has already changed a useless out
let of the Mississippi into nsvigable chan
mel which is to-day the favorite of the
largest coasting steamers entering the port
of New Orleans, and that he has done this
which the Government, with its slow ma
chinery, would scarcely have made a com
mepcement upon the proposed canal.
They know that he has accomplished
this magnificent result solely with the
money of himself aud the public-spirited
associates whom he has induced, through
the magnetism of his own courage and
faith, to join him ia this immense under
taking, which is admitted to be not only
the most important with respect to its in
fluence upon the commerce of the country,
but also one of the most difficult, hazardous
and expensive engineering works ever un-
dertaken. That the indomitable energy
and pluck displayed in this remarkable in
dividual effort, and the splendid results
already achieved, have won for Mr.. Esds
the admiration OF the whole country is not
surprising. The good faith shown by him
and the results accomplished have likewise
won for him the confidence of the people,
and it cannot be doubted that their sympa-
thies will be reused in his behalf in the
event Of any covert or open official hos
tility calculated to embarass him or to re-
tard his great work. He has asked moth
ing unreasonable of the Secretary of War,
and we look with interest to the decision
which he will make in the matter.

CONGRESSMAN SMALLs succeeded on Fri
day last in having ingrafted in the civil sp-
preparation bill $500 for the re-estab-
lishment of range lights at Hilton Head
and Bay Point, entrance to Port Royal
harbor, South Carolina, The harbor of
Port Royal is now one of the best on the
Atlantic coast, and, according to the opin-
ion of eminent engineers and other intelli-
gent observers; it might at g comparatively
small expense be made the best port of en-
try on the Atlantic coast. Port Royal is
now the terminus of railroad, and bids
fair at an early day to become place of
considerable commercial importance. The
appropriation was secured in spite of the
Georgia delegation, who were unremitting
in their efforts to have the naval rendez-
Vous removed to Tybee Island, To no one
is Port Royal more indebted for this sue
cess than to Mr.. Smalls. His success as q
pilot in the navy during the late war and a
captain Of steamer in the quartermaster's
department, together with his devotion to
the best interests of the navy, have won
him the confidence and esteem of all the
naval officers of this city.

Poor SAM Cox. He has been slaugh-
he abdicated the Speakers chair to go to
ST. Louis and aid In the nomination of the
certainly to e-de1eated candidate for Presi-
dent, he left the House without even
ErO tsmpOre Speaker. The diminuuve
shadow of his liliputian form had hardly
before an agreement was effected to
bounce" him. A resolution was drawn
up in the handwriting, as we are informed,
of Clerk Adams, providing that Mr.. HOl-
man should be Speaker pro TEN. during the
absence of the Speaker and the pro teni
against pro tom. Cox, on account of GER
tain rulings against him, took the afore-
said resolution, and erasing his own name,
wrote that of the Hon. Milton S4yler,
of Ohio. But he did not stop
here. With another stroke of the same
pen he erased the portion of the decree pro-
viding that the Speaker pro tom. should
act during the absence of the Speaker and
the pro tenn Speaker. The guileless Say
Ter was at the Arlington, packing his trunk
in preparation to 60 to meet Sam Cox,
when he received dispatch from the Capt.
TOD announcing the situation. With that
avidity which always characterizes your
eager d. mocratic patriot he left his things"
lying around loose, aad his trunk partly
packed, and rushed to the Capitol to as
sumo the unexpected honOrs which had
been so suddenly thrust upon him. Seri-
ously speaking, there are few members OF
the House who are able to fill the place of
Speaker with more ability, and who will
give both parties better satisfaction than
Mr.. Sayler; but then. how will Cox feel?
No sllusinn is here intended to the old
story ahout Ophelia Cox.

perhaps it would have retained its inie-
"pendence as an organization outside Of
" the lines of the party" This assertion
is but one of the numerous political straws
showing which way the political wind is
blowing. In short. the nomination of
Hayes and Wheeler has brought together
and cemented sll the factions of the Re-
publican party. SO that it is now more com
pact and better satisfied than ever before
since its organization. Victory is certain
to perch upon its banners-as certain as
when Lincoln ran against Mcclellan; and
if Hancock should be nominated at st.
Louis. the campaign will not be unlike
that which resulted in Mr.. Lincoln's re-
election.

HANCOCK turns out to be Washington
candidate. G. the candidate of political
wire-pullers in and about this city. He
was the same in 1868, when Seymour was
nominated by the New York convention.
Pamphlets were then printed and distributed
broadcast by lis admirers to show his avail
ability, and after all he made very poor
showing, just such one as it seems likely
he will make at St. Louis. Will history
repeat itself, and will Seymour again be
nominated2

IT SEEMS probable that General Crook
was defeated in his late battle with the
Sioux Indians. The sayages were well

the blue coats are bound to prevail over

believe it, that on their tickets they
have printed these words: against
Approval" Here is deceit, cheating,
sailing under false colors to the very
last, and in direct violation of sacred
pledges made and preached from ev-
cry stump. Let our colored friends
observe we'll this cheat, and ponder
if they can trust party that fools
them beforehand.
