DEMOCRATIC GENERosIrY.


When General BUTLER rendered to the
House an opportunity to reward q true-blue
Democrat and Union soldier by slecting
him Doorkeeper, he offered that side an ex-
cellent occasion to display their sense of gen.
erosity and justice But that was no part
Of their purpose. They had found an ex-
Confederate who was hungering after the
spoils Of place, and his ambition must be
answered to the exclusion of Democratic
loyalty. General SHIELDS was stabbed and
an ex-Confcdcrate was rewarded, to the dis
gust Of every true man to his country, be he
Democrat or Republican.
To hedge against public sentiment, DEM
0cratic cunning and ingenuity were at once
challenged to the aid of that party, with a
view Of deceiying the country and covering
their own shame. The expedient of put
ting General SHIELDS on the retired list, by
way of making show of hollow magma
nimity, was at once adopted, and the meas
ure was rushed through the House under
whip and spur, without proper considera-
tion to ascertain If such q measure was con-
sistent with existing army laws and regula-
tions. Upon careful examination it is not
so clear that this little game was not II pro-
ceeding of doubtful propricty, and was fully
understood as such by its engineers.
1t now appears that there are several re-
quirements relating TO the retirement of
commissioned officers, which have hereto
fore been observed, and which do not apply
TO General SHIELDS case. 1t is provided
that an officer may be relieved on his own
application after thirty years in the service,
or by the action Of the President after forty
five years Of service, or at the age Of sixty
two, or by a retiring board when incapaci-
tated for duty by incident of service or 9TH
erwisc. In all cases the service must have
been continuous; and it is expressly pro-
vided that the officer shall be retired on the
actual rank held by him at the date of re-
tirement.
As the case now stands, it appears that
General SHIELDS is not covered in by these
requirements in any degree. His service
has not been continuous; he resigned his
rank years ago, and hence has none by
which he can be recognized in retirement.
Another difficulty presents itself. He could
no. be retired on account of 4 wound re-
ceived in the Mexican war, which was not
sufficiently severe to incapacitate him from
holding a volunteer rank at much later
period. And again, officers must be retired
under existing laws and regulations, the
Congress having no power to legislate indi-
viduals into the army at will to afford itself
an opportunity of magnanimously consign-
ing him to the retired list by special enact
ment
The bill has reached the Senate, and that
body seems disposed to treat the matter
with little more deliberation than marked
its consideration and passage through the
House. Al all events, it will not be rushed
through with blind speed and without re-
+ gard to existing laws and the proprieties
and consistencies of legislation. This seem.
ing Democratic generosity may prove to be
disguised hypocrisy and ambition.

To REMEDY the blunder made by the
House in placing volunteer General SHIELDS
upon the retired list when there ia no re-
tired list to place him upon, an enabling act
will have to be passed. Meanwhile the
Egyptian General FIELDS, of Confederate
fhme, draws his pay as Doorkeeper, and
while the people are finding out what a
humbug the retired list is for volunteer
officer, General SHIELDS remains as poor as
he was when compelled to pawn his sword,
given to him by Congress in recognition OF
his loyal services, for bread. Some one
should take these facts as text and pre7c.:
therefIOm sermon on Democratic justice,
or Confederate selfshness, or demagogical

CONGRESS AND THE RAILROADS.

This may be called railroad week with
Congress, and that body has shown dispo-
sitiou so far to show scant justice and no
mercy to any railroad corporation it has
anything to do with. There are now before
the House, or soon to he brought in, the Pa
ciic Railroad sinking-fund bill, the North
ern Pacific land bill, the Texas Pacific sub
bill to settle some disputes rs to operations
between the Union and Kansas Pacific Rail-
road Companies.
The bill on which most attention is fixed
is Of course, the Texas Pacific, as that in
wolves u new departure in the national pol
icy. The Northeyn Pacific only asks an ex-
tension of the time in which to complete its
road, in order to earn it's land grant, to
which there is nowhere any strenuous OBJ
lection; but the Texas Pacific Company
not only seeks an extension of time so as to
save its eighteen millionaire land grant
from lapsing, but also the Endorsement of
the United States on S3s, 10000 of its fifty
year gold bonds.
This is in effect lending the money or
credit of the nation to corporations for their
own benefit chiefly, and it remains to be
seen whether Congress will take that step.
The debate that has occupied two weeks OF
the Seuate's time in regard TO compelling
the older Pacific roads to pay back the
bonds loaned them in advance of their ma
turity, contains some instructive suggestions
on that point. More than one Senator has
doubted the power of Congress to lend the
money or credit Of the United States under
any circumstances The temper of the
Senate, us revealed by the discussion, is mar =
ifestly hostile not only 10 any new Pacific
roads but also to the single road now in
operation. 1t would seem rs If Senators gen
orally regretted that Congress had ever ex-
tended the aid requisite to call the first
road into being, and is Us far rs possible
from iavoring the creation or assistance OF
any more Pacific roads out of the public
Treasury. 1t Was not claimed that there
was any extortiOn in the charges, or that
the roads were not well managed, but that
simply by the act Of Government favor the
Dtrh 10 btuu lle
agents here to procure favorable legislation
This WAS the burden Of their otieuses. OF
course the same men whose sense of pro-
priety is so shocked by the presence of the
lobby TO ward of injurious or to help favor.
able legislation, will not, for they cannot
consistently support measures which will
lust double this source of annoyance. II
Government, as it seems from the remarks
in the Senate, has made great mistake in
creating and nursing one corporation which
plaques it, creator, it is mot likely to repeat
it by uct-nursing another.
There has been a noticeable encouragement
given 10 this Texas Pacific subsidy project
at the beginning of each Of the last thre,
sessions which has dwindled toward the
close. The present session seems to be nc
exception, and 80 long as the final vote and
condemnation Of the policy is delayed Sc
long will its friends hope for success. The
stern and severely virtuous way in whici
railroad corporations have been treated il

The arrest Of Ex Governor NOSE, of South
Carolina, for fogery does not invalidate his
testimony against Southern Republicans in
the estimation of the Opposition. His self
confessed rascalities continue to form the
basis of their charges against the former
Republican administrations of the Palmetto
State. In any court Of justice this fellow
would be excluded from the witness stand
and respectable men would sooner spit upon
than associate with him; but the Democ-
racy warns him in its bosom with cher
ishing regard TOR his usefulness in slandering
his betters.

THERE is rumor, which appears to be
reliable, that Governor DESNIsoN has re-
signed, or soon will resign his Office as Com.
missioner of this District. His friends at
his home in Ohio are reported by the Colum-
bus Journal to be gratified at the prospect OF
his return to them, which is quite natural
because he belongs there, and because Ohio
hns lately become very peculiar State.
But the Governor is not the only Commits,
sioner we can afford to spare, or the only
one whom the people of Washington would
invite to resign if that matter were left tc
them.

A RECENT editorial in the Philadelphia
Times incidentally, OF accidentally, betrays
the full measure Of Presidential woe as il
lustrated by the variety of visitors to our
noble Chief Magistrate. We quote there
from as follows:
Three days age he (eX-Governor WELLS, of
louisiana, had crossed the Potomac, and he
conferred with HAYES 'twixt the same rising
aud setting Of the sun that saw tho editor Of
the Times enter and emerge from the White
House"
All this and much more from Colonel
MCCLURE by way of explanation that Gov
ernor WELLS has not yet begun his libel
suit against the Times or its editor, which
suit is invited by repetition Of the alleged
libel and much addition thereto in choicely
slandcrous language. Perhaps Mr.. WELLS
has abandoned the libel pr oject rs he did
his threat to "cut the years off from the
Tildenized head Of DAVID DUDLEY FIELD
1t is to be hoped he has not. 1t would be so
interesting, you know, to reopen the Louis
lana imbroglio in the courts, especially in the
Pennsylvania courts, and we never did
have much regard for the personal comfort
of Philadelphia judges and juries. But it
seems that under the protecting banner Of
the Administration, and on the neutral
ground Of the Executive Mansion, the holy
and charitable spirit of Cancellation enabled
the plaintiff and defendant in this Great
Mule Case to meet and brush each other,
garments, as it were, in peace and harmony
The foremost alleged manufacturer of oul
worthy President, and one among the fore
most of his numerous opponents or critics
called on him almost simultaneously
unanimously, so to speak, and each de-
parted on his way rejoicing that the country
is blessed with q President who is every
bodys President, and who is remotely, i
not charaeteristically, the inspiration Of thu
aforesaid Great Mule Case.

THERE is always some mean feature con-
neeted with watering-place. The farmers
OF Gettysburg would never have thought Of
asking the Government to pay them fol
the use of their lands on which to fight a
battle in behalf Of the Union, if mineral
spring had not converted the locality into a
watering-place. Tho Government refuses
70 pay the rent for the reason that it fer.

IT now turns out that Doorkeeper FIELD
Is Ciyil-Seryice Reform graduate. He was
previous to his election to that Office an
employee, as inspector Of something or an
other in the engineer department Of our
delectable and truly ornamental District
government His political disabilities, aris-
ing from his treason to the Government to
which hs owes his education, were removed
expressly to allow him to accept that in-
spectorship from ths hands of the District
Commissioners, who are noted for their eff
forts to find deserving erContedcrates upon
whom TO thrust official emolumcnts. That
is a way they have Of demonstratin their
adherence to the policy Of Cancellation, In
this instance, however, it seems they have
laid themselves open to the charge of keep
ing hospital or nursery for Democratic
ofiice-seekes. 1t would be an insult to
tender General SHIELDS the vacancy occa-
stoned by FIELDS promotion; but no more
of an insult than to tender him a place on
