Mr. Oates. To the bill the gentle
man had read just nov, the bill intro
duced this session.
Dir. Barksdale. With the gentleman's
permission | beg leave to correct him.
A bill having precisely this object in
view was introduced by my colleague
Mr.. Singletonl at the last session. or
during the last Congress.
Mr.. Oates. Well, then, until the last
session of the Forty-seventh Congress. it
seems, no action was taken for the pur-
pose OF extending the time within which
this corporation might avail itself of the
provisions OF the original grant.
Mr.. Muldrow. Ny friend is AGAIN in
error, for the Forty-ffth Congress. /
Enthusiastically not later than the For
ty-sixth-I myself introduced bill
looking to the restoration of this grant.
Mr.. Oates. This is the first informa-
tion have had even Of that; and at any
rate, the measure has not been pressed
very vigorously. ] do not think il can
be alleged in behalf Of this grant that
those who seek to avail themselves of
Its benefits have been very diligent. In
pursuance, therefore, of the general
policy, see no reason for the adoption
OF the amendment offered by the gentle
man from Mississippi.

1.-The question was taken on the
amendment, and it was not agreed to.
Consequently the bill declaring the lend
grant to the Gulf and Ship Island Bail
road forfeited, was passed BY the
House,

The Money Power.


Our attention has been attracted to-
the position OF the American Sentry,
published in New York, by its vigorous
and unceasing attacks on the money
power. = II is engaged in veryIunequal
contest, yet It is backed by theI "toiling
million" but what can they do against
the combinations Of the money power?
This power has always been great since
money was first invented, and the tendeD.
cy OF latter years has been to concentrate
il In the hands Of the few, and when tic
combinations are complete, as they have
recently made them under the title Of
syndicates, then il assumes the power Of
branch Of the government" a. its
Specification imports, and the executive,
legislative and judicial departments be-
come snbjcst 10 its influence, and it
takes man in either Of these depart
partments Of incorruptible integrity and
firmness OF purpose to withstand the in
sidious assaults made upon him by this
power.
II is deeply grounded in the minds Of
men that legislation and judicial decis
ions are often controlled by money, but
they may be assured that 1t Is none but
the corrupt in heart who are subject Il
this imputation. II Is well known BY
the oldest classes Of our citizens, and his
tory attests the fact, that for sixty year,
Of the current century the idea OF brib
ing public officer in any shape was the
rarest occurrence. Goback 10 the dayi
that tried mems souls, and we find on,
name forever disgraced thereafter, who
was tempted by British gold, and about
the same time there we're three militia
men whose names will be held in everlast
ing remembrance, who spurned the gold
detected the spy and saved Washington
and his army. Have these days Of hon
esty and virtue passed. We heard &
venerable man of God say to four OF
five hundred christians not long age
that he believed the world was better
now than at any former period. For
the honor Of human nature, we wish
from the bottom Of our hearts we coulC
/
Join in this opinion.
While money is the root of all evil,
lisa very necessary erii, and we dom
belong to that class who envy men who
have more money than we have. Wer,
all the money now extant, divided equal
ly among the people to-day, tomorrow
II would not be equal 1t Is the i'm
proper use of 1.-THE combinations O
the money power, tho misery hoard.
ing Of 1.-THE niggardly Withholding o
it from public and charitable uses, anC
its expressions on the laboring classes
that make men hate the millionaires
and they will continue to hate then
until they open their Golfers and dea
| Justly with their fellow men.
