Mr.. Lawrence, to whom the President has
Just given the lucrative position of Collector OF
the Port Of New Orleans, is fortunate man.
He saved all his property by being a Union
man during the war, and has since drawn four
teen thousand dollars for three hours service
as member of Congress. his election having
been contested aud his seat given to him just
three hours before the close of the term for
which he had been elected. He was evidently
born under lucky star, and the appointment
he has just received is not only agreeable to
himself, but to large majority Of his fellow

AZ Copgrc delegation 10 vote against inc
radiation of the army affords additional proof
that the representatives Of the democratic party,

not so bound by party ties rs to vote tor meas
ures which ihay believe Injurious to the inter
eats of the country. They made a distinguished
exhibition Of this last February, when they d.
vided on the question of sustaining the decision
Of the Electoral Com mission, and BY so doing
avoidcd civil war; The Texas members arc as
pood democrats al any 10 the House OF Repre-
ssntatves, bu. they believe reduction OF the
army at this time ia not only unnecessary out
woud he attended with unfortunate results, and
30 believing, they vote against II. We agree
with them, and when We consider the small
forces now guarding the extensive lodau from
tier, extending from the Rio Grande to Canada,
and read of the active hostilites now in progress
10 Texas and the threatenings in tho Northwest,
we are surprised that the patriotic democrats
from the Lone Star State, and two or three
others, are the only cues who will vote against
the proposed reduction. The whole army bill,
even as amended By the Senate, is botch and
q buncle, and should be referred back to the
committee, not only for revision, but to be re-
nodded and reconstructed. 1tshould provide Tor
forco, not only large enough to protect all Sec
tions Of the country. but to protect all sections
at .hc same time. so that when its services are
required to defend the people OF Texas, the
people OF all the other portions OF tho frontier
NAV not be left utterly defenceless, and all
provisions for the location OF troops should be
stricken out The idea Of Congressmen, some
of whom have no conception either of the lace
of the hostile couutry or of the military neces
sites, 6x;ns by legal enactment the position OF
troops is preposerous. and we are astouished
that such a provision could have received the
requisite number Of votes to Incorporate 1t into
the bill. The officers of the army are paid tor
commanding it efficiently, and 10 order to do that
they must be competent to station 1t at the

department. 10 accordance with this action of
the committee, Senator Conkling to-day ad-
dressed a letter to Secretary Sherman, request

caratiou that no removals should be made ex-
cept for cause He further informed the Sec.
