THERE is a Robson and q Robinson in the
present Congress, and they are both Repubi-
cans and "statesmen " OF considerable talent,
at least in vituperation.-St. Louis Post Dis
patch.
Our hyphenated contemporary is sparing
of facts. OF Robsomethings there are in
the House George NJ. Robson, of New
Jersey, Republican; E. W. Robertson, of
Louisiana, Democrat; George d. Robin
son, of Massachusetts,, Republican James
S. Robinson, of Ohio, Republican, and
William L. Robinson, of New York, a
Democrat. 1t was this latter Robinson,
sometimes called Richelieu Robinson, and
the special, sclfappointed champion of
Ireland's wrong that the rotund Robson
had the little tilt with. The P-D. should
study the Congressional Directory"

They Point With Pride.
Utica lierall

The Fisk Jubilee singers, refused hotel ae-
commodation In Washington, can "point with
pride "-as the political phrase is-to the fact
that they have boen twice entertained by Mr..
GIadstonel the Duke aud Duchess OF Argyle,
and John Bright In London; by the Crown
Prince and Princess OF Germany, In POtsdam,
Prussia; by Baron Won Remsen, Ia Berlin, and
by other dignifaries In England, Germany,
Holland, and elsewhere. Outside OF our
National Capital they have met with compare
lively little discourtesy In this free republic.

THE Post this morning, speaking Of the
nomination of ex.Gov. p. B. S. Pinchback
as Surveyor of Customs at New Orleans,
says:
alt is TO be hoped for the honor of the coun-
try, that the Senate will reject the nomina-
ton"
We trust that our esteemed contemporary
will survive the shock, but Mr.. Pinchback
was confirmed yesterday.

THERE Is A general feeling of satisfaction
here that some presentments have at last been
made In the Star-route cases, for now there
will be an opportunity to test by due forms Of
law the truth or falsity Of the charges in this
matter, on which the changes have been rung
with painful iteration for hve years past.
The parties who are reported to have been in
aicted affirm that the evidence laid before the
grand jury was entirely of a one-slded charac-
ter. Whether this be SO or not, they ought to
welcome the chance to prove the innocence
which they claim is theirs, and, If proved, set
at rest what they allege to be slander.-Frank
Richardson, In baltimore Sun.
Precisely. But do we understand that
when the cases come to be tried, if ever,
Tidball's pamphlets are to be served upon
the public as they were upon the grand
jury? This is the question that really
disturbs mems minds.

that it will be amusing from one point of
view and saddening from another to OBJ
serve the abuse to which every one who ad-
yocates the Congressional plan for building
of United States Navy will be subjected
by certain class of newspapers and politi-
clans. Every one who speaks or writes or
votes in favor of what is unquestionably
one of the most important works of the day
will be denounced rs an enemy of his
country, a corruptionist, as one aching
to thrust his hand into the Treasury, as a
wretch interested in ship-yards as a subtle
schemer desiring to advance the price of
labor or the cost of iron, or even as secret
agent of that terrible man, Mr.. John Roach.
Notwithstanding all this, however, the
probability is that the recommendation of
the Naval Commission will be adopted and
that Congress will vote the sum necessary
to begin the work.
Nothing could be more wise; nothing is
more necessary. The work should be put
in hand at once, under such conditions as
will not make it probable that mistakes
will be committed, or any of the funds ex-
pended in mere experiments. The Naval
Commission and the Naval Committees
have pretty well decided upon what we
want to commence with as the nucleus of a
great.navy, ,..and the work should be prose-
cuted with thorough intelligence and good
judgment. 1t may b. found easy in no
very long time to wisely expand the work
and to construct the vessels that we need
more rapidly than is now contemplated"

TODAY BEING the anniversary of the
birth of the Father of His Country, it
might be profitable for his numerous pro-
geny, metaphorically speaking, to ask
themselves whether Father George really
did us any good when he separated us from
the Mother Country, and, if he did,
whether it is not worth while 20 maintain
the independence he won for us. 1t is
among .the notorieties of current history
that British influence is infinitely more
potent in this country to-day than it was
when Major George Washington COM
manded a battalion of Virginia Provincials
in Braddock's Army. The only difference
is that at that time this country was occu-
pied by garrisons of British troops, COM
manded by lord, while now it is held
under English sway by lot of New York
newspapers and an English steamship
lobby, commanded by Capt. John Goldman.

PROHIBITION.

Tho assertion that Kansas has lost
large numbers Of immigrants in con-
sequence Of its liquor prohibition laws
is borne out by the figures. Out Of
the 100000 immigrants who arrived
10 the United States during the past
year, not over 5000 have settled in
that State. Some who went there
with the intention Of locating depart
ed for other regions as soon as the
prohibition laws were brought to their
notice. In one case the leader Of q
party Of colonists of Austria who
were possessed Of abundant means
and world have made very desirable
addition to the population ofthe State,
was on the point Of closing a contract
with land agent for the purchase oil
large farming tract when his atten-
ton was called to these enactments.
That brought the negotiations to O
sudden conclusion. Notwithstanding
all this, the prohibitionist leaders
pronounce themselves satisfied with
the result of their experiment; but il
is question how long they will have
. majority Of the population at their
back. Recent elections in the various
cities Of the State have all shown
heavy losses on their part.-Sun.

Henry Ward Beecher, In his SER
mon on Sunday Endorsed the freight
handlers strike as justifable and said
that the Knights Of Labor, Working
mems Union, etc., were popular edu-
Gators, and the education of common
people was to be approved. he did
not always approve Of strikes. The
cheapening ofthings was grand work
of capital, but capital should not
cheaper men. Referring to the effect
Of combined capital on Legislation, he
said that to reverence the law one
must not see it made, and the men in
the city who erected palaces from
which to throw missiles of unhappiness
should know that they were in danger.

10 favor Of a respite and recommend
ing that it be not granted, on the
ground that the sanity Of the prisoner
had been fully established at the trial
The report, was generally discussed,
and unanimously approved by the
Cabinet, all the members of which
were present. An understanding
was reached that nothing should be
disclosed as to the decision Of the
Cabinet until after it should be dis
closed to the prisoner. Rev. Mr.
Hicks called upon the Attorney Gen.
eral Saturday morning by appoint-
ment, aud was informed that the Cab
met had decided not to interfere with
the execution of Guiteau's sentence
Mr.. Hicks thereupon drove to the
District Jail and informed Guiteau of
the decision. Guiteau said to his
spiritual adviser, Rev. Mr.. Hicks !:
"Go and see Arthur, and shake your
fist 10 his face. Tell him made him
President by my inspiration, and he
must give me an unconditional pardon;
and if he does not, God Almighty
blast him forever. 1 tell you brother
Hicks, | am Gods man, and God
takes care of his own" Guiteau
passed Saturday and Sunday quietly,
and nothing particularly noteworthy
was observed in his behaviour.
To DR.. Hicks, his spiritual adviser,
and the only person now allowed to
visit him, he conversed quite freely,
reiterating his well-kuown "inspir-
alton" ideas. During an interview,
which lasted an hour and half, he
said to DR.. Hicks: ~ am Gods man,
and can go to heaven tomorrow for
that matter. l wouldn't mind being
hanged right away. Whether the
American people can afford to let me
be hanged, or whether they realIy de-
sire that I shall so die, is another
question"
DIR. Hicks thinks Gulteau really de-
sires to be hanged in private, with no
member of his family present, and
that he is waiting calmly for the day
of execution.
The physical condition of the as
sassin has not changed much recently.
He has probably lost pound or two
OF flesh during the past week, and his
face has that haggard appearance
usually noticeable on condemned GRIM
inals after long confinement.
Mr.. John W. Guiteau arrived in
the city on Sunday. He telegraphed
to President Arthur on Saturday,
asking to be heard in behalf Of the
application for commission of lunacy
on his brother, Charles Guiteau.
