was at war with the facts by sentencing
Gen. Swain to suspension from rank
and duty for twelve years, aud to forfeit
half his monthly pay during that time.
Now, If Con. Swain merited any such
punishment as that meted out to him by
the court in its last sentence ho is unfit to
remain in the service, and, in tho words
Of President Arthur
1t is difficult TO understand how the court
could be willing to have the officer tried re-
tnincd as pcnsloncr upon the army register,
while IL expressed its sense Of his uuiitncss TO
perform the duties Of his important oilico by
the imposition Of two different sentences, un.
der either Of which he would be deprived per.
manently of his functions. The idea that an
office like that of judge advocate general
should remain vacant In effect for twelve
years merely to save q part Of It's omoluments
to its incumbent under such circumstances
would seem to como from au inversion Of the
proper relations Of public offices and those
holding them, and is an idea not suited TO our
institutions.
The action OF the cou rt martial in its
several inconsistent and ridiculous find
ings and sentences is travesty upon
justice, aud IL II wore not disgraceful
would be regarded as the broadest kind
of o farce. As the verdict Of the court
was referred back to II for roconsidera-
tion, the public may we'll refer tho views
of those senators who went of half
primed yesterday in discussing the qucs-
tion back to them for revision.

THE COMMISSIONERS MISSION.

sented Here In Its Emergency.
The commissioners OF the Worlds Exposition
temporarily stopping in this city are appar.
emily gentlemen of far more than ordinary
callber. No man of average intelligence can
meet them without seeing that they are here
not because of any personal selEseeking, but
because Of their enthusiastic interest in the
exposition, which other gentlemen associated
with them and representing all the states and
territories Save ltan) have asked them to
make secure lho personnel OF this commit
tee Z. remarkable. First Is Mai. Bacon, Its
chairman, u citizen of Kansas and man
whose flashing black eyes indicate youthful
vigor that Is not even rendered doubtful by
his frosty locks. Next Is the secretary,
quiet, gentlemanly man OF broad patriotic
views, and of Tesistless because never ceasing
energy Then comes Col. John Is. Meade, the
commissioner of Vermont, tall. elegant man
of refined address and excellent good sense.
With them arc gentlemen from Kentucky,
Rhode Island, and Wisconsin, all OF manly
presence, good common sense, and personal
merits of high order. They have come

and the people at large an account of the dill
cultes undcrwhich Encouragement ofthe Ex-
position has laborod on account OF the weather

fully contributed more than $780, without
prospect or even hope of direct recompense.
1t might be said that the displays made by
the patent office and by the national bureau of
education of the department OF the interior,
by the Smithsonian and the national museum,
those made by the agricultural bureau and by
the department of Justice, furnish sufficient
attractions in the aggregate to draw
crowds to the New Orleans Exposition,
but 1t is sufficient to add that the commits
slOners OF the states and territories Of the
union have brought together ut New orleans
the most complete representations Of the re-
sources of this entire country that has ever
been made, aud that the several executive de-
partments of the general government have
supplemented these with exhibits covering
the whole world of human industry, whether
barbarous or civilized.
The commissioners committee now in this
city asks congress to contribute means for the
prosecution OF this grand work. Behind the
committee stand every state and territory.
These gentlemen represent the American pGo-
Pile not officially, but by credentials as well
defined and understood as those of any mem.
ber Of either house of congress Not ono Of
them has an axe to grind. but every man OF
them Is doing his best to uphold the people's s
interests. 1t Is to be hoped that their patriotic
endcavors will be approved by congress.
