END OF THE FORTY SEVENTH
CONGRESS.

The instructions of the autumn
elections to the late congress were
universally understood. The coun-
try was resolved that the spoils sys-
tenn which had murdered Garfield
should be reformed, and that the SUI
perfuous revenue which led to the
extravagances of the river and harbor
bill of last summer, and to the cor
ruption which always accompanies a
surplus, should be reduced by revi-
sion of the revenue system. The
President correctly interpreted the
elections, and in his annual message
to congress recommended certain
Immediate and extensive reductions
in the annual revenues of the GOV
ernment," adding the pregnant re-
mark that 'only such taxes ought to
be levied as are necessary for wise
and economical administration of the
government He opposed the total
abolition of internal taxes, for two
reasons-frst, because it was not
clear that with the S100,000,000 re-
quired for pensions during the year
the duties on imports would supply
the needs of the government and
second, because the total abolition
of excise taxes would prevent thor
ough revision of the tariff. He also
stated with force the necessity of re-
form in the methods of appointment
to office, and commencing the Pen
dleton bill, promised his hearty CO.
operation in such proper measures oil
reform as should be devised by con

frank and patriotic, his suggestions

THE FORTY-SEVENTH
CONGRESS.

Inc forty-seVentn congress mas,
from time to time, been as much
scolded and abused as any that ever
met; but now that its work is done
and its record is made, it can be
judged upon it's merits. OF useful
legislation it has done more than any
congress which has existed since the
last republican congress, which pass
ed the resumption act. The acts
providing for the extension of the
national bank charters and the re-
funding of the maturing public debt
in per cents, for the suppression OF
polygamy in Utah, for the distribu-
ton of the balance of the Geneva
award to actual losers by the Anglo
Confederate cruisers, for the reduc-
ton and revision of the tariff and
the repeal of all of the war taxes eX-
cept On spirits and tobacco, for
sending of claims to the court of
claims, and for the reform of the
civil service, fairly entitle the out
going congress to claim that it has
surpassed its recent predecessors in
the amount and the Importance of
useful national legislation. But for
the bill extending the charters of the
national banks, about three hundred
of these institutions would now be
going through the process of wind
ing up their affairs, to the great det-
riment if not to the ruin of the bust
ness of the country. The revision of
the tariff will put an end for a time
to she uneasiness which has existed
in business circles during the past
year respecting revenue legislation.
The reduction of the rate of letter
postage is piece of legislation which
will meet with general approval.
The civil service commission bill is
the first important legislation upon
that most important subject that has
ever been enacted. Compare this
list of good measures with the work
of the three congresses in which the
democrats had a majority and the
superiority over them must be con-
fessed even by intelligent democrats.
In fact, the most important measure
enacted by those congresses was one
which the present congress is most
censured for failing to repeal-the
silver coinage act. In several i'm
portant matters, congress has been
unable or unwilling to meet the de-
mands of intelligent constituents.
1t did not repeal the silver coinage
act; it failed to enact law defining
some method for counting the electo-
Idl NOlG IL ldllCu W CudCG 1 Udlh-
ruptcy law, and it was unable to take
action upon the proposition TO relieve
the country of the dangers resulting
from illiteracy. To its great credit,
it can be said that no object of any
magnitude has succeeded under any
disguise. All the schemes to raid
the treasury have failed. The last
hours of the session did not witness
the scenes of confusion which have
frequently disgraced congress. The
excellent measure relieving Ameri
can shipping of many of the burdens
now hampering it was killed in the
house pending the adoption of the
senate amendments by the refusal Of
the democrats to vote to make {
quorum. They were present in sui
ficient numbers, but followed thu
lead of Mr.. Randall, and by refusing
to vote prevented action. -Bosto,

FIRE AT BELLOWS FALLS.

BELLOWS FALLS, VT, March 8.
This thriving town was visited by the
most disastrous fire this morning it
ever had. The alarm was given soon
after 2 O'Clock, and in less than thir
ty minutes the Vermont Farm Ma
chine Building, four stories high, was
doomed in spite of the fire depart
ment. The building was built only
three years ago by the Bellows Falls
Canal Company, Hon. VIM A. Rus
sell of Lawrence, president, for the
use of the Vermont Farm Machine
Company, which occupied three sto-
ries for the manufacture of the cele-
brated Cooley creamers, farm and
dairy implements of all kinds. This
company has an extensive reputation
and does the largest business of its
kind in the world. The company
was never fiourishing SO as it was at
the present time, and the increase of
it's business for February was seventy
five per cent over that of February,
1882. The rooms were filled to over
flowing. Over one thousand cream
ers and two thousand churns which
were. stored in the third story
were burned, besides large amount
of tin, iron, wood and other material
used in the manufacture of their i'm
plements. Quite number of sugar
evapol ators also were burned. Moth
ing in fact was saved except a par
of the company's books, which were
in the office on the first floor The
company's loss is about 100000
which is covered by about $50, 900 O
insurance, distributed in eight differ
ent companies. 1t employs fit,
hands in the main building. N. @
Williams, the treasurer and manager
says this morning he has engaged
three buildings, telegraphed for tool
and material, and will be at worl
again by the first of next week.
