OUR MINISTER TO ENGLAND.--General
Schenck, who is now on his way home from
England, to appear before Congressional
Investigating Committee, to explain, if he
can, the part he took in the Emma mine
swindlc, was notified by the President, preyi.
Gus to sailing, that his resignation would be
acceptable, and accordingly it was rendered.
His resignation was kept secret, before he
sailed, as n writ was served upon him by the
English authorities, who would have held
him to answer to the charges brought against
him by the deludcd shareholders of the Emma
mine stock, but for his office. President
Grant has nominated Richard H. Dana, Jr.,
of Massachusetts,, to succeed him. We CON
graduate the President upon having, for
once at least, stepped aside from his usual
course, in selecting a gentleman who is above
suspicion to represent the country at foreign
court General Schenck's resignation may
save him the embarrassment and mortif-
cation of impeachment before the Senate
The President appears to take good care of
his friends, by standing between them and
justice wherever he can.

District Attorneys that no guilty man could
escape punishment no matter how much lie
might reveal against Babcock or any other

Thc End of the Third Term.

The exposure Of Gen. Belknaps rascality,
following so closely on the heels of the Bah
cock trial, Schenck's disgrace, &c, will be
more than President Grants administration

tirey non committal, so as to leave him in
aposition to accept or reject profTered nomi-

might as well make virtue ofnccessity and
boldly proclaim his opposition to third term.
The fall of Belknap has been the last weight
laid upon the back of any public opinion
that existed in favor Of a third term, and the
over-laden beast has broken down. Grant'sad.

The facts are, that on the vote being taken

ing, upon their own motion, voted against il,
showing that they wanted to make the bill

from the fact that even the Senator from

ly, voted against il, because, as he said, ut
was too heavily loaded"
On the day this vote was taken it would
have been placing the bill in great jeopardy

particularly called to section "a, article 3, of
the Constitution, and | am very much of the
opinion that the Legislature has no power to
appropriate money TO any individual, asso-
citation or corporation" whether it is for Sin
ternal improvements or not. The words,
you doubtless are aware, are "the credit OF
the State shall not be given IN any manner"
Now, if the credit SIN any .nadnncr" cannot
be given, it would seem the States money
should not be given, nor cannot be given,
without violation Of the Constitution.
