The reports of the massacre at Berber have
been confirmed. This will be exceedingly bad
news for the English Government. 1t will make
impossible the escape of General Gordon from
KhartOum, by the route he entered that city,
and il will place fresh difficulties in the way Of
q relieving force. 1t will not be surprising to
hear next,that Khartoum has fallen, which will,
no doubt, be followed by a change in the Brit
ish Ministry.
Congress ought to adopt Senator Vests
amendment to the Legislative Appropriation
BILL in regard to the printing of speeches In Inc
Congressional Record. The amendment provides
that no money shall be paid out of the Treasury

q member of the Board of Estimate,
from using his ex-oficio position as Commits
sioner of Accounts to secure information on
which to act n passing upon appropriations.
1t was also intended unnecessarily to increase
the city's expenses. The Governor was fully
informed in regard TO the measure, but it was
partisan one, and as a Presidential candi-
date he was probably not able to resist the
pressure of his associates.
Although some Democrats appear to be still
