What u Drunken Ill NJ Mannered
Senator Said.

Mr.. Conkling, OF New York, said that
he would like TO record vote for the
present competent, faithful and accom-
plished Secretary, and he thought that
every Republican Senator would like to
do SO. He had hoped that Senators not
Republicans would be glad to do so, be-
cause some of them understood purity,
efficiency and honesty in the civil ser
vice to mean what he meant namely,
the selection of not a scoundrel, but an
honest man; not fool, but mar OF
sense; not pretender. IA sniveller, but a
man OF efficiency, SO that when they
have brought such man into office they
should keep him there. When they had
a man Of this character he should not be
moved to make place for some favorite
or party claimant. In conclusion he
moved to strike out from the resolution
the name of John g. Burch and substi-
tute that of George e. Gorham.
Had CoRkling used such language to a
New York rough in an Albany saloon he
would have been knocked down; and
who will say that such language did not
become some such place as gambling
hell, better than the Senate chamber"

MARCH :B 1870.

As THE present Federal Election laws
exist it would require very little stretch
of authority in the House and Senate
and a very little change in the laws to
enable both bodies to secure the re-elec-
ton Of their own members. These laws
almost ignor the fact that the members
Of Congress are representatives. The
people Of Great Britain have an easy
way to change their government and the
majority in the House of Commons, at
the polls, than have the people Of the
United States under the existing Federal
Election laws and it is because of the
power which the thousands Of partizan
Deputy Marshals have at the polls, all
being from one party, that the Republi-
cans insist upon the continuance of these
laws.

THE LOTTERY BILL which was offered
in the House of Representatives on Mon
day afternoon seems to have surprised
everybody. 1t was thought that lot
teries had been killed in Delaware, and
that the last scheme of that kind to raise
revenue had long since expired never TO
be revamped. But the horrible war and
its crushing debts which were forced
upon the people by the want of states
manship, and through violence and sec
tional hate, has been productive of many
evils, and the re-enactmeut OF another
lottery scheme may possibly be added to
the long list. There is no mistake ABOUT
there being very strong current of OPP
position to scheme of this kind; but,
nevertheless, there are great many peo-
pie who argue that it is lio worse Than the
rallies and chance schemes that are Sc
frequently INDUCED in by the religion:
soclet es in many of the churches. W.
see no prospect fol the present schem,
becoming law, however.

We HOPE it is not true, a. reported in
some newspapers, that Speaker Randall
intends to withhold the announcement of
the committees of the House until after
the adjournment. Whether Congress
goes into general legislation or not we
hope the committees will be announced
and the organization Of the House for
work Will be promptly Completed. II
there Is any work to be done that will
give relief to the country the sooner it is
done the better. There is so much pre-
tended fear that Congress will commence
.tinkerng the finances among a few thous
and old nervous bank directors who
run arouud croaking and EXPRESSING
their dread of what may happen, added
to the partisan newspapers iii their pay,
that it is doubtful whether people ma,
not begin to think Congress is such a
dangerous body that it had better do no
legislation at all. If it cannot be trusted
now to discuss the questions that have
been agta ed, when can it he ? For our
self we think the sooner some solid basis
is reached the better. There canuot be
doub That the people of one-half of
the country have been despoiled of the
greatest privilege that legislation ever
gave to stimulate industry and improve
the country. Nor can it well be doubted
that the act which despoiled the States
without their consent of the right to issue
and circulate paper money, is contrary to
the spirit, land the intent of the trainers of
the constitution; this right was especial
ly granted the States by the organic law
that deprived them of the privilege of

STEEL AND lRoN AT TIE PARIS
ExposITIoN.-D. j. Morrill,, of Pa,
Assistant Commissioner to the Paris En-
position, makes report to the Secretary
of State, on the exhibits of iron aud
steel, and the condition of the iron and
steel industry Of the world, from which
we take some interesting falts. Speaking
OF the French exhibit of iron and steel,
the report says In the manufacture of
crude iron castings, bar iron, ron and
steel rails and some other heavy products,
the world had known, at least since the
Paris Exposition Of 1867, that France
was largely engaged, aud that in then
skilliul and economical production she
was not behind any other naton, but at
tie Expos ton Of 1873 Sue showed that
ioi:ns of IRON and steel, and MANY OF the
products derived from them, she had
been enterprising and successful beyond
all expectations. Specimens Of the wolk
of Schneider " Co., OF Creusot, the
Ierre Noitre Company and ihe Saint
Chamond Company are given including
an eishty-ton steam hammer the largest
IN the word Siemen's Martin steel.
! weighing 100 metrical tons, and all arm
or plate l3 feet 10 inches long, feet 6
Inches wide, feet inches thick, and
weight 65 metrical tons cast steel
shaft GA feet ! inches long, 10 inches in
diameter, aud weight 80 tons.
The Schneider Uompany's works at
Creusot an1 mines cover 1868 acres,
have los miles railroad, q locomotives,
Lois cars, PSI stationary engines, IS
steam hammers, and 1850 steam machine
rolls. After describing several cf the
other extensive works, brief descrip.
ton is given of the improved appliances
used in iron making.
THE EXHIBIT OF GREAT BRITAIN.
Alr. Morrell says, was not worthy of the
advanced stage OF her manufacturers
The contributions of finished product.
i'll Bessemer steel were from Bolckow
Vaught Co., Middleborough, auC
Brown, Bayley Il Dixon, Sheffield. The,
exhibit rails 130 feet long, rolled direct
from the ingot, and bent in four length,
of 32 feet each. The most remarkable
specimen OF bar steel exhibited were the
samples Of Mr.. Whitworth's metal, uset
in ordinance by the Martin process. A
forged hollow shaft, 80 feet I inches il
length, III inches in diameter, was ex
h'bited. The British exhibit of cutlery
saws and edge tools, Mr.. Morrell SAYS
was inferior in size and quality to tia
OF France. The iron and steel industrie.
were but meagerly represented. Wha

by Fratce and America. Great BlitaiI
5 Is making great progress in the utliza
, ton of steel for all purposes. Mr. Nor
f. rell says the story of Great Blitain, il
, her wonderful achievement in the manu-
T facture Of iron and steel, is best told il
the statistics of their production. Ii
1875 the production i'll pig iron was H.,
900 tons, and in 1877, 100000 TONS

y GREAT MANY PEOPLE seem to lave
very loose ideas Of the value of suffrage.
They imagine that vote is SO trliing a
thing that i, may be bestowed as "A gra-
tulty without danger. At the rate the
States have been driven into debt in The
last twelve or fifteen years, it is likely
that our people will be awakened to the
real Importance ol popular suffrage lohg
before they have got rad If the burden it
has Inflicted upon them. No man can
dou0; the bad effects OF bes owing suf-
irase upon eight hundred thousand un-
educated men in the South. They be.
came at once the obedient tools of ias-
cally politicians Sent fIom Washington
aud the North, and by the votes OF these
misguided and ignorant negroes every
Southern Sla-e in which TIE negro vote
gave a majority were plunged IL ruinous
debt. The consequence Is that the land
Is not worth holding as it will not pay
the heavy taxes and the cost of cutiya-
tlon and i'll maay places rents from the
houses will not LAY the taxes, and those
who own them find them IA source ot
expenditure instead of, as formerly, q
source Of revenue.
Such is the effect OF suffrage when ex
ercised without judgment. In States il
is precisely the same as in smaller corpo
rations where political influence or othel
influence is allowed to lead the unwar,
astrAy. Franchise is of real value /,
any body Of people, and the more wealthy
they are i'll lands and houses the deare

solely to the federal government.
Were it not for the tax upon the issue
of State bank notes the South and the
West would be enabled to pursue their
industrial operations, and the labor OF
the country would find ample work to
do in improving the waste places, build
lug up trade and commerce and re-estab-
fishing the name and credit which the
ruthless hand of the demagogue and
the irresponsible carpet-bagger had de
stroyed or made worthless.
