FIrz-JoHN poRTER,s CASE.

1t is exceedingly humiliating to the un.
selfish patriots that have survived the
perils of the late war for the Union to wit
ness the disposition manifested by mnior-
ity of the committee in either branch of
Congress touching the question of bestow-
ing honors on General FITz.JoHN PORTER,
merited only by those who served our
country hOnOrably and well. Who is
really the aggrieved party in this case
General PORTER or the United States? BY
the willful faithlessncss of this sworn officer
of the Federal Government in time of the
Nations peril at the battle of Bull Run
the lives of thousands Of our country's
brave defenders were nhumanly sacrificed
and the Government sustained a loss OF
nearly million of dollars The Union
arms suffered defeat, and in consequence
thereof the war was prolonged. Is the
veneered personal reputation of an in
glorious General of more importance to the
people of this country than these truths il
history? 1t would i'll become Congress t.
| legislate General PORTER certificate o
good character and award him seventy-fvC
thousand dollars of the peoples money as
a reward for his faithless conduct, whereby
he contributed to the success of the enemies
of the Union.
Before making the award, better visit TIL
cemeteries in and around Washington, wher
rest the bones of thousands of the Uniol
dead. Better read the just finding of TIN
court that tried and sentenced him to be dis
missed from the military service. Bette
consult the Judgment of the surviving
Union soldiers who participated in til,
battle he in his faithlessness contributed t,
defeat. Better ask the judgment of tn,
thousands of pensioners who received thei
! disabilities in that unequal contest Tn,
country has had quite enough of this bust
ness of withdrawing the reputation o
guilty regular army aristocrats. The sol
diers say let the just sentence stand Ogains
him for. all time, for the unenyiable reputa
ton he so much dislikes General PoRTEl
volunteered to make for himself

THE VIRGINIA OUTLOOK.

There may be Misrepresentation regard
Ing the movements of the official mnchin-
cry of the government in Virginia in the
interest of the next Presidency. At least,
it is to be hoped that one-half that is stated
Is not true, for at best itplaces the Admin
lstration in very inconsistent light before
the public eye. Thepower ofoiiicial patron
nge is entirely out Of place in this contest.
1t is better by far that its powers and ener-
gies should be reserved to be brought in
play against the common enemy than to be
arrayed against those through whose efforts
and votes itnow holds the reins of govern
ment They at least, in their primary
political action, should be exempt from the
antagonisms Of official power especially
when its introduction into the arena is an
infraction Of one Of its prominent dogmos
of public policy. Tho people have a right
to protest against the methods now resorted
TO, and they do protest and will continue tC
protest to the end of Che chapter.
But It is our present purpose more espe'
cially to review the state of politics within
the Republican circle in Virginia under
such information as reaches us from what
we regard to be reliable sources A very

ahead of any foreign Power, and then IL
such latter Power, either singly or allied,
endeavors, TO construct q canal, IL will be
forced TO take the offensive and leave this
Government on the defensive. In short,
Secretary EvARTs prefers that if an inter-
oceanic canal project is TO involve the
United States in foreign war, the foreign
Power shall be the aggressor and this
Government assume the defensive.
This is good scheme, and it is to be
hoped that Secretary EvARTs will nurse it
assdiously until it shall be formulated into
n fixed fact If war is to come of it, let the
Powers of Europe assume the aggressive,
and then they will learn that while we
have our domestic difficulties and aliena-
lions, the raising of the hand Of n foreign
Power against our National flag and soil
will be but the signal for every American
citizen within the Union to step to the
front and defend them against any and
all invaders.

THE Cincinnati Enquirer seems to be
very largely engaged in the interview bust
ness for the purpose of gomering public
opinion as to the relative strength of the
several candidates for the Presidency. 1t
has recently given the result of interviews
on choice for the Presidency with about
thirteen hundred Democrats and Republi
cans in various parts of-Ohio, with the fol-
lowing summary of the result:
The reports so far show Senator THURMAN
to be in a good lead among the Democrats OF
Ohio, though he commands less than half OF
oil tho Democrats so far reported. Mr.. SHER-
MAN Is the choice of 347 of III Republicans
interviewed. The proportion will fuctuate
as reports from other counties are received
but 1t seems hardly possible for Mr.. SHERMAN
to command fifty per cent. of the Republican
vote.

WHAT DOES N MEAN

The Cincinnati Enquirer seems to be seri-
ousy impressed with the idea that an alli-
ance has been formed between England,
France and Germany, for the purpose of
constructing under European auspices a
shin canal over the Isthmus Of Panama.
This wears the appearance that the three
great Powers Of Europe are inclined to
test the Monroe Doctrine at no distant day,
though war may come of it. II would now
seem as if il was a fitting time for Senator
BURNSIDE to rise to question of personal
privilege and enter a solemn protest in the
name of ,the American Congress against
this wanton violation Of the Monroe
Doctrine by the potentates aud Powers
Of Europe. 1t is intimlted that Secretary
EyARrs isuwarc orsuch an intention on the
part or the aforesaid combined Powers, and
is preparing the way to place this Govern
mcnt into q position to checlS-mate the
European scheme. The intention of the
European combination is alleged to be ia
proceed TO construct canal across the
Isthmus, and to do IL in such an audaclous
way that the United States will either be
compelled to take the offensive or to submit
to very humiliating National indignity
His plan, as is alleged, is TO adopt the
EADs' scheme of the hydraulic dock system
and convey ships across the Isihmus by
carrying them over the dry land by sys
| TEN of docks from ocean TO ocean, 1t is
claimed tmt the plan is practicable, and
that ii can be developed and carried into
effect much sooner than II canal can be
constructed, The great point Mr.. EyART'
desires is TO begin the work, and get in

them, but, of course, it was too late to speal;
of that now.
