of February 20, 1871, being the act to en-
force the rights OF citizens 10 vote in the
several States, &c.
Mr.. Beck said this Appropriation was
to pay men illegally appointed to con
duct elections for the worst OF party
purposes.
Mr.. Allison sent 20 the Clerks desk
and hat read letter from the Attorney
General to the effect that the deficiency
in his department would have been out

law. under which S75,00O was required
for deputy niarshals 10 attend elections,
AMI SIPS 600 for the prosecution of per
sons charged with crime. great part
of the expenses under the latter clau.o
were incurred in the States of Louisia ana,
A labama and South Carolina.
Mr.. Thurman asked what new circum-
stances had arisen that the Department
of Justice had expended a quarter OF "a
million Of dollars Of the peop e's money
without authority of law. The Depart
which, above all others, should obey the
law, disobeyed 1t. This money was to
pay set Of mrn employed ostensibly to
preserve the purity OF elections, but, real
ly, in corrupting the elections. Super
visors and deputy marshals were ~ pie n
full as black berries last year, and more
corrupt than any bulldozers that ever put
foot on this land. Where was the money
spent? IL had been h-ralded that money
was needed to protect the poor negro OF

York ami elsewhere. OF the two mil

ed. In view of the reign of terror insti-
tuted in New York by Davenport, there
was no difficulty in showing. with this
machinery, how elections were carried
Over twelvs hundred deputy marshals
were appointed in the city of st. Lonis
alone, and the Democratic majority IN
those districts was overcome by those
means. The money of the people of the
United States was being expended by
the hundreds of thousands Of dollars u

deputy mar-hals were appointed would

Congress Yesterday.

In the u, s.. Senate, yesterday,a letter
was received from David L. Corbin, " ith-
drawing from his contest for seat as a
S.n.tor faom South Carolina The arr ars
of pens ion bill was further considered
and several amendments adopted. An
evening session was held, at which the
pension arrears appropriation bill was
passed, with an amendment making the
law granting pensions to the soldiers of
1872 applicable TO those Of the Mexican
war OF 1876. The river aud harbor bill
was then taken up aud various amend
ments adopted were those making appro-
pratlons for the restoration Of the
James Island lighthouse and the pay
ment of Baltimore's SlO6,47l war claim.
In the House, Senate amendments to
the postotice appropriation bill were
called up. Two hours were allowed for
debate on the Brazilian steamship sub
sidy amendment, after which the amend
Inent was defeated by vote of 157
against it to 80 in it favor. The remain
der of the Srnate's amendments were
non-concurred in and a conference com.
mittee ordered. Mr.. George f. Seward
minister to China. was arraigned before
the bar of the House for refusing to
answer certain questions. He still per
sisted in declining to answer, and 8
ma ion wss adopted referring the matter
to the judiciary committee, to report
what action should be taken. An even
ing session was he d, which was confined
to the consideration of pension bills, &c

WHEN the Legislative Appropriation
bill comes back from the Senate, with tho
amendments to the Federal Election
clause stricken out, there will be a pres
sure upon the Democrats to yield tho
point. The majority is not large and a
few faint-hearted, weak-kneed Demo-
Gratis, by acting with the Republicans
might carry the majority of the other
side. This would be disgraceful to them
but it need not irnperil the final success
of the plan, TO enforce he repeal of ose
infamous and unconstitutional laws, by
the same sort of action that secured
their original passage. They were en-
acted as "rider'' on an Appropriation
bill. They should he repealed in that
way. Any Democrat who fails in his
duty in this regard will never be forgiven.
so pretty talk or plausible excuses will
cover up his cowardice. The liberties
of the States, the >titutional right of
the people, the purity of the ballot-box
the existence of the Demo cratic party
are at stake. If those Federal Superyi-
sor laws are not repealed the Demo
cratic party had better make an assign
ment of its effect and appoint u. Chand
Ter trustee.-BdH Gazette.

AN EXTRA SESSION HRID TO BE Ne
CEssARY.-It is now conceded by the
New York Herald that an extra session
of Congress will be rendered necessary
by the action Of the Senate in loading
down the Appropriation bills with '.jobs." ="
We have taken the ground from the
first that an extra session could do no
injury, but would result in great good to
the country. We believe it right that
the 46th Congress should be organized
as soon as possible after the adjournment
of the 45th. There will result a great
advantage, as we have heretofore urged,
in having the questions of the Speaker
ship and the chairmen of committees
settled. If this is done the committees
will have all summer and fall TO consider
the measures that come under their no.
tlcc. This being the case they would be
able to discharge business much faster
when they meet In December. The soon
er the Federal election laws are repealed
the better and other Federal interfer-
ence ought to be stopped at once ere the
country is plunged into further difficulty.

MORE TYRANNY.--Warra have
been issued for the arrest of State
Judges in Virginia by the United States
officers. Hayes has been furnished with
an army by the votes of doubtful De mo-
Gratis and we believe he will be influ-

the elections. He has doubtless urged
the arrest Of the Virginia State Judges
to bring about difficulty, alarm and
anxiety just for the same purpose the

only sufficient were told off to make even numbers
with the Russians. Accordingly they went in
man for man to clear out the aggressors. After
a free fight, in which chairs and tables were alike
brought into requisition, this was accomplished.
Prodigies of valor were performed, especially by
a petty officer of one of the English ironclads,
who distinguished himself by the rapidity with
which he hoored one antagonist after another.
The Russians reached their ships in a somewhat
sorry plight.
