The Tocsln Sounds.

The quiet sleep being taken by the republ-
can party preparatory to the conflict of 1884
has been disturbed. The systematic and
orderly work of the government going on
under the direction Of the President and his
cabinet has been pronounced most danger
GUS to the future of the republican party
The administration of President Arthur
has been rudely notified that it has been
weighed in tho balance of Charles T.,
Smith, editor of the Philadelphia Press,
and found wanting. Mr.. Smith writes
to his paper from this city nearly two col
umns, which, being printed on the editorial
page and in editorial type and headed from

ner to indicate that he does not intend to
allow any back talk on tho part of the Presi-
dent. He withers him at the outset with the
accusation of having good manners, and
rather intimates that he eats with a fork.
But, says our oracle Something more is
needed for the successful government of re-
public of fifty millions and the victorious
leadership of great party" Right you are,
Mr.. Smith. But what that something more is
you yourself may not have rightly OWNED,
Tho attempt you make to do it seems to have
coniounded you.
First, we are told that tariff law has been
passed. and that on this subject the Presi.
dent had written some sensible words in his
annual message but that in the thick of the
fight he was unfelt." And pray how would
Mr.. Smith havo had the President proceed ?
Would he have had him send for congress-
men "in the thick of the fight" and
offer them places for their votes, or would
no have had senators told that unles,

The Jeannette Inquiry.

The Jeanette court of inquiry reconvened
at II o'clock yesterday. As soon as the court
had organized, the three scamen, Leach,
Manson, and Lantcrbach, entered the room,
and were presented by Lieut.. Danenhower to
Com. Temple and the other members of the
court, who shook hands with them cordially.
Seaman Leach was then sworn. Witness
Joined the Jeanette mt Mare Island in June,
1879, as seaman. Had no statements to
make relative to the fitting out of the vessel,
her management up to the time of her loss, or
rs to the loss. Witness believed everything
was done by the officers in command which IL
was possible for them to do to secure the
safety and comfort of the men upon the re-
treat, and desiged particularly to say word
in regard to Mr.. Danenhower, "who had
charge Of the whaleboat during the night
of the gale and to whom witness
believed he was indebted for his prevention
from death that night" Witness thought he
displayed great judgment and skill. Witness
had no censure to pass upon any officer, aud
no complaint to make.
Seaman Manson was then examined and
said he also Joined the Jeanette ut Mare is
land rs n seaman. A number of general
questions were put by thejudge advocate but
witness replied that he had no especial state
ments to mako other than that he believed
everything that could be done was done by
the officers to secure the escape of the men
from the wreck Witness corroborated the
statement of Leach relating to Mr. Danen-
hover and had no complaint to make against
any of the officers.
John Lanterbach, the next witness stated
that he shipped on board the Jeanette as
coal passer, at Mare island, about May "a,
1879 had no statements to make except that
he believed credit should be given to Lieut..
Danenhower for bringing the whale boat safe
to the shore. Witness had no charge to make
against any officer Seaman Bartlett being
absent on leave, the court adjourned till 1890
II, III. on Tuesday next, when Seaman Bart
lett will be examined, DIR. Collins has been
asked if he desires to have any questions put
to the witness, and unless he replies in the
| affirmative, this branch of the investigation
touching the alleged unpleasant relations be-
tween Capt. DE Long and Collins, will not

Decision in the Ochlitrec and Other Cases

Judge Lawrence, first comptroller of the
treasury, after hearing full argument has
made decision in the Ochiltree case, and as
to two delegates in congress from the terri
tories. The United States holds Judgment
agant Ochiltree for $G,s00. In November,
1882, he was elected representative in con-
gross from Texas On tho fourth of April
thore will be due to him one months salary,
$il7. The question to be decided was
whether the salary should be held TO apply
on the Judgment. Two delegates from terri

counts are not finally settled, so that thoy
are on the books of the Treasury department.
indebted to the government, but it is pre-
sumed they will present vouchers in due time
to meet these. The opinion of the comptroller
Is made at considerable length, and the points
arc about as follows
In view of the explicit provision of the
constitution, and the reasons on which it
rests, il must be held that the salary must be
actually paid TO n representative, because
First. The language of the constitution is
imperative, "he shall receive IA compensation
for " his services as fixed by law. lfhis COM
pcnsation is not paid to him, and it is with
held, it cannot be said that he has received it.
Second. If the United States can apply the
salary TO q Judgment in its favor congress can
authorize any other creditor of n representa-
tive to reach and appropriate it by judicial
process. To say that such appropriation sat
isties the mandate of the constitution would
be peryorsion of terms.
Third. The reasons on which the common
law rule against garnishee proceedings rests,
and the evident purpose of the constitution
require this construction. Any construction
which would defeat the purpose of the con-
sttution is not in accordance with the rules
Of construction.
As to delegates from tho territories, they
stand upon II different footing. They are not
created by the constitution; they are created
by the statute The statute can, therefore,
change their right TO compensation.
In view of this, ii is held that no set-off can
be made in the case Of representatives in con-
gress, but it may be as to delegates
In cases in which the accounting officers re-
fuse to make the set-of when it may be re-
quired by law, the act of Mar. 3, 1875, author
lied the secretary of the treasury to make q
set-off. Theforegoing opinion was commune
Gated to the acting secretary of the treasury,
so that he might direct the set-oT to be made,
as the statute authorizes, if he did not concur
in the opinion of the comptroller. The acting
secretary decided that he would not make
any order changing the action Of the comp
troller
