Court sustain the title of the latter, holding it
settled 50 fully that the princlpl is axlona,ic
that all acts done 10 the aid Of the Conlederacg

would be waste of time to discuss the qucs-

10 the contemplation Of the law the rigEtful

as to those who have taken by transfer from

The present average Southern democratic
Congressman may be very smart man, but
bis constituents don't think 80. By bis vote
yesterday resolution was adopted declaring
that no subsidies in money, bonds, public land
endorsements or By pledge of public credit
should be granted or renewed by Congress to
associations or corporations engaged in or pro-
posing to engage in public or private enter
prises. The great wealth aud population OF
the North are due 10 no small degree to such
subsidies as those referred to, and yet, now,
when the South has an opportunity of reaplng
like advantages, she is prevented from avalIlpg
herself of it by the very men she has sent to
Congress to defend and protect her interests.
IF our information BE- correct there is Nd ap-
plicatioo for an especial Northern subsidy now
before Congress, for though both the Texas
and Southera Pacific Railroads. and the South
American Steamship Line are really Northern
corporations, The two first will improve Southern
territory, and the latter will touch at Southern
ports, but the applications Of The South are
ianumerable. She wants the Mississippi levees
repaired, canal to connect the Mississippi
river With the Atlantic Ooean, existing canals
extended the navigation Of her rivers in proved,
custom houses built, and every conceivable sort
of internal improvements. But with all these
wants, aud having the power to obtain at least
some of them. her Congressman rush forward
aud vote agaiost all subsidies. The government
isrich if the people are poor. and no Southern
Congressman represents bis constituents fairly
who votes against spending some of the millions
