HE LAWMAKERS ARE THE LAW
BREAKERS.

The House of Representatives yesterday
in lis action upon the case of the contuma-
cious witness, Mr.. Halet Kilbourn, ar
pears to have been oblivious of TIC exist
enCe CT the Revised Statutes. Section 102
OF chapter seven provides that a witness
who refuses to answer any question peril
" nent to the question under inquiry shall
"be deemed guilty Of a misdemeanor,
% punishable by fine of not more than
"S1 ,O00 nor less than 500, and imprison-
"ment in common jail for not less than
lone month nor more than twelve months"
Mr.. Kilbourn has repeatedly offered to
answer the questions propounded and to
produce his books and papers if any re-
sponsible person would make affidavit that
his business affected the Government Of the
United States. Otherwise the questions
lack pertinency, being an unwarrantable
and impairment interference in the private
affairs of the citizen and direct infringe
ment of the. principles laid down in the
'Bill Of Rights" The affidavit was not
produced. No evidence nor scarcely a
decent pretense was made that the commit
tee lad reason to suspect that Mr.
Kilbourn's books would aid ii in the ex-
Posure Of any fraud upon the Government
He therefore stood upon his reserved rights,
and refused to respond to the questions
He then came into the contempt of the
House, as the committee calls it, but the
above section calls it misdemeanor, and
states how it shall be punishable, what
shall be the penalty.
Then the law goes on to describe the
procedure in the House against which the
misdemeanor has been committed. 1t is as
follows:
t'Sec. 1O4. Whenever a Witness summoned
as mentioned in section lG?, fails to testify
and the facts are reported TO either House, the
President Of the Senate or the Speaker of the
House, as the case may be, shall certify the
fact under the seal of the Senate or House to
the District Attorney for the District of Co.
lumbia, whose duty it shall be to bring the
matter before the grand jury for their action
Why did not the House pursue the
course laid down in the Revised Statutes:
When did one House acquire the power
to abrogate law passed for its guidance
in such cases by the two Houses IN Con-
does not confer the power upon the
House TO try a recusant witness for
misdemeanor and remand him to jail
for punishment. On the contrary,
the section 1O4 quoted above (and
which. by the way, was printed in
cur news columns yesterday morning
for the especial cdification of Mr.. Glover
and his committee) is mandatory upon the
House against which witness is recusant.
1t leaves rs discretion with the House
whatever in the matter. The presiding
--csSeer 'fshaH certify the fact under the
seal. +" &C., to the District Attorney of the
District of Columbia, who shall bring the
case before the grand jury. What for
Why, for the purpose of indicting and
trying him for the misdemeanor above
named, and if found guilty, that the Court
msy sentence 10 fine and imprisonment as
provided in the statute.

WHEN the ex-Confederate House was
organized, ii was promised by its friends
that the fruit of craftsmanship and reform
would soon relieve the country from its
embarrassed condition. The result has
proved the shadowy basis on which these
promises were made, and that to detract
attention from their want of true states
manship the Opposition is compelled to
raise great hue and cry over accidentally
discovered corruption. OF course, the ex-
posure Of malversation by officials of high
or low degree is a duty, but it is not the
only duty devolving upon the House, nor
will it satisfy the people that their interests
are in safe hands. Let US have some action
on the currency question, for example. or
frank admission that the laws enacted by
the Republican majority of the last Con-
gross on this subject are sufficient for the
emergencies of the occasion.

viii deliver, upon the first opportunity, an
elaborate defense Of the Confederacy and
of secession. The Savannah Morning
Nens, in view of this fact, says, with re-
freshing coolness
HThe acts Of those wlo cast their fortunes
with the Confederacy nted no APOLOGY, nor
docs the Lost Cause need q special defender.
Even IL such were the case, the present is not
a fitting opportunity"
Now, the NeuS is mistaken. An apology
is needed, and the Lost Cause needs
special defender, and Nj. Hill is just the
right sort Of man for the occasion, and he
will perform his duty en- ANDRE. He has
sense enough to know that the true anfnius
Of Southern Democracy is perfectly well
understood at the North, and that its ute
rior purposes cannot be concealed under a
cloak cut in any fashion OF hypocrisy.
According to the Mems Mr.. Hill is all
right, and every thing he says is true, but
at this time he is impolitic. Referring TO
the debate on the pension bill the Ns1cs
says:
'We are the more free in thus advising Mr..
Hill, because of his recent blunder in spring
ing the question OF secession during discus
sion of the pension bill. The excitement that
followed Mr.. Hills impolitc differences may
have been gratifying TO his vanity, but it was
not at all creditable 10 his judgment. The
blunder was the-more inexcusable on the part
of Mr.. Hill for the reason that it was unpro-
Yoked and unnecessary"
We like TO see, as theatrical show only,
impersonations of Uriah Heap and Amini-
dab Sleek. The editor of the Ness is a
great artist. He assumes the role Of hu-
mility and hypocrisy naturally. and effect
lively. His picture of peniteuce is truly
pathetic, and though we know it is all
sham, still we can scarcely keep from she'd
ding a real tear. With how much docility
Mr.. Hill will receive the lesson remains to
be seen. This amiable Southern scribe
goes on to declare himself further in the
following excerpts:
''We 90 not desire, however, to be consid-
cred as arrsying ourselves with those who dis
approve of either the matter or the method of
Mr.. Hills memorable reply to Mr.. Blaine.
/ That reply carries with it its own justification.
The hsnor, the humanity and the manhood of
the Southern leaders were impugned, and it is
not only becoming, but absolutely demanded
by the occasion, that the ISLANDERS and lies
should he promptly met and refuted.
ave should like to convince Mr.. Hill that
the Lost Cause needs neither champion nor
aFologist.
"The South finds its justification in the
martYrdom of its dead, the valor of its SOL
diers and the devotion Of its women"
There it is in a nutshell. The predomi-
nant spirit of the South-its upconquered
hostility TO the Union of these States. its
rank treason, are all admitted, applauded
and defended. and the only guard on the
lips of the South is that of pure policy. Is
stronger proof wanted than this afforded
by the Savannah Ncu8 editor? Will all
shlly. sbally. dilly-dally Republicans make
a note of this fact?

BENJAMIN HILL.

The great gun of the Southern wing of
The Democratic party is Mr.. Hill, of
Georgia. His philosophical calmness on
all necoasioDs, his accurate knowledge of
public affairs, his most judicious detenses
OF Southern policy and opinion, his courage
and eloquence, fit him for leadership, and
we anticipate his speeches with great
pleasure. 1t is great pity that he is not
better appreciated at home A little paper
and a little editor way down in Savannah
is advising him to hold back, actually
putting bit in his mouth, thinking to Tod
him. Probably all this editor is or ever
expects to be is due TO Mr. Hills kind re.
gard, and now he wishes to deprive his
patron. by keeping him silent, of extend
ing his fame at the North where he is held

The election returns from the State Of
New Hampshire are very cheering to every
true friend of the Union and sincere lover
Of his country. They indicate most de-
cisive victory for the Republican party, and
prove that the old Granite State is firmer
thsn ever in the defense Of truth, right
and justice. Under the circumstances this
Republican victory conveys 10 the Dem
ocratic party q significant rcbuke, and as
sures them that the country is not yet pre-
pared TO adopt its hcrcsics or countenance
