service In that event, very much smaller ap-
preparation and very different distribution Of
the funds appropriated may be expected.
Moreover, the great disturbances OF lebuking
such wholesale and systematic plumber may
properly be weighed with other reasons, If
others arise, for calling Congress together in
extra session. But if the River and Harbor bill
becomes law, as il passed the Senate,
direct and serious responsibility will rest upon
the Executive Department with regard to the
choice of expenditures to be ordered.

There are no symptoms in the Democratic press of
exuberant pride IN the financial wisdom of Demo-
cratic statesmen. Even the trio of Democratic ex-
Governors who have been led before the public with
careful assortment of views on the party were not
able to allude to the Funding bill as q source Of
Democratic strength. Ii the real opinion OF the
party concerning Mr.. Carlisle were to be expressed

1t is pretty safe to write the obituary of the Fund

the qIidnuncs of Jerusalem think OF the old

satisfied to wear skins and to eat lOcusts
Gautama and MahOmet, when they threw up
place and money, and went into solitude to
listen whether there was any better word for
them to speak than place and mOney-what
asses they were in the eyes of shrewd business
men Yet the business men, the trade, the
politics of those times, the very Kingdoms in
which they lived, are but name to-day, while
the doctrines of these two or three solitary men
have been the living creeds of millions for
centuries.
No doubt when the Jewish peasant, Jesus,
went out into the wilderness alone to find
what God and the devil had to say to his
soul, there were plenty Of sensible men who
could have told him how much more rational
it would be for HIN to take an interest in
Jewish politics, or to attend TO his trade and
better his condition. They and their trade and
politics were swept off the earth in a few years,
while all the civilization of the world is built
upon the truth taught by the penniless, uninflu-
entail man who Withdrew himself from them.
In view of this it is not amiss for the shrewd-

General Garfield reached Washington at 8
o'clock yesterday morning, and as the hour of
the arrival of the train was not generally
known, he was so lucky as to get to hotel
without any great annoyance from reception
ceremonies. There was little informal speech
at the station by Colonel Ingersol, which was
no doubt well worth listening to, n moderate
amount of handshaking, q rapid tide through
the streets, short address of welcome at the
hotel, and then the new President was let
alone for tie day. He has still his inaugural
address to write it is understood, and there are
possibly still one or two unsettled points con-
corning the Cabinet, so he will have plenty to
do between now and Friday morning. Prob
ably we shall not have list of the Cabinet
until the names are sent in to the Senate for
confirmation, so there is time for the guessing,
which has tagged of late, to start up afresh.

EULER reports concerning the fight at Spitz-
kopf do not confirm the first account OF the
action in one important respect The British
were not beaten because their ammunition
gave out. They were driven from their strong
position by the fury of the Beers assault and
the deadly accuracy of their fire. Sir George
Colley paid the penalty of extreme rashness.
He had no excuse. as an experienced tactician,
for penetrating an enemy's country with so
small a force and with no reserves within
supporting distance. His first defeat seems to
have taught him no lesson, and he persisted
in conducting the campaign as if it had been
one against some barbarous tribe which would
be sure to run away at the first vOlley from
force of relocated regulars. The Beers have
shown that men who are fighting for their
liberties and their firesdes make good soldiers
without the discipline of the barrack and the
drll-sergeant.

The effort which is making by the Produce
Exchange to have oleomargarine distinguished
from butter in the Custom House clearances is
a good ONE. Collector Merritt says, how ever,
that as the laws are at present construed, the
necessary examinations cannot be made; but
he intimates that an order from the Secretary
of the Treasury might settle the matter. All
doubt would be removed if an amendment
were made. as is suggested, to the pending bill
in reference to the adulteration of dairy pro-
ducts

at the Whitaker court martial still
going on in this city, although it attracts little
attention from the public, which rightly prefers
fresh news, Ex-Governor Chamberlain yester-
day argued at considerable length against the
introduction of specimens of Whlttaker's hand
writing, by which the prosecution expected to
bring in expert testimony to show that the cadet
wrote the note of warning to himself. Mr..
Chamberlain raised this objection as point in
the law governing courts martial, and net be-
cause he feared the results of an inquiry in this
particular direction. In the course of his adj
dress lie commented severely upon the manner
III which Whttakers supeIiors at West Point
bounced down upon the youths private corre-
spondence, not sparing even his love-letters.
Mr.. Chamb lain insinuated that even q negro
had civil rights at West Point.

The talk about postpOning the extra session
of the Senate turns out to have been talk and
nothing more. CnbrOken custom makes it i'm
perative upon an outgoing President to call the
Senate together 80 as to have no break occur
in its session. The new Senators are sworn in just
after IL o'clock on the 4th of March, the
new Vice Plesident takes the oath OF Office, and
the body which must "advise and consent" to
all important appointments is ready to act upon
the Cabinet nominated by the new President
Mr.. nayes's proclamation is already out con-
vening the Senate in extra session at noon on
March A. Probably Senator from Wisconsin
to fake the place Of Mr.. Carpenter will be on
hand by that time. If not, and if the Demo
cIats have a temporary majority, they will
hardly be so foolish as to make haste to elect
officers and appoint the committees, knowing
that in few days their power will depart and
the Republicans will be able to undo their work.
