THE COMMITTEES.


Mr.. Carlisle has formed his committees.
In general their construction is good, and in
fact, so far as we know the materials, their
composition is admirable. 1t is needless to
say that we may change this opinion without
notice as they may develop weakness, but
this is of the future and-the committees.
Territorially, they are well distributed,
and the chairmanships of the important
ones are well placed. Indiana is well repre-
scented, and in the person of Mr.. Cobb, who
is supreme in the Public Lands Committee,
we recognize exact fitness for position now
among the most responsible in Congress. Mr..
Bland leads the Committee on Coinage, and
we regard that also as the best that could have
been named. The Committee on Labor will
have some hard sums to do, but is formed of
men TO whom the subject is practical, and
whatever in unrayelment of this vexed ques-
ton that can be done, the committee is pre-
pared by education and training to do. Just
what Belmont will urge upon the Foreign
Affairs we have at present no means ofknow-
ing, but he is a cool-headed, popular and
able politician, and it may be that those
who best know him will be justified in in
fiuencing his appointment. There is an air
of fairness in the composition of all Of them
that is to the credit of the Speaker, and we
are not afraid to hazard the announcement
that they will give good account of them
selves in the work they have to do, for so
far as we can learn of their antecedents
the materials are chosen with full.view of
their adaptation to their special work. 1t
will be a business session.

A STEP TOWARD A NAVY.


The Ordinance Committee have in view a
proposition to establish national foundry
IN Pittsburg for the manufacture of cannon,
armor plates and various engines. There are
reasons why progress in this direction is de-
manded. There are no facilities yet in
the United States for the economical manu-
facture of heavy ordnance or arnor on the
scale demanded and private enterprise
would not undertake to place them except
under heavy guarantees of orders from the
Government. II is clear that in this depart
ment it would be unwise to depend upon
Europe for supplies even though it is known
that Europe can furnish them cheaper.
Without very powerful navy we are liable
at any time to an effectual blockade, and
war and naval supplies might be cut off at
the moment we would need them the worst.
As for their establishment at Pittsburg, per-
haps that place IS as good as any other that
could be named. The materials and skill
are there in abundance, and it
is conveniently near to the seaboard.
Every one would like to see his locality ia
vored, but as they can only properly be in
one place, ulSpldy ol Ieelng Oh TIE ual-
ter would be mere petty jealousy. But We
think such a foundry should be solely de-
voted to armor plates and ordnance, and
should not include engines. There are
hundred makers already established who
supply any sort of demand for marine en-
gines, and it would be wasteful for the Gov
eminent to refuse them patronage which
they are enabled to supply cheaper than the
Government could possibly do.

A NEW way to utilize silver has been dis
covered by Mr.. Lane. He would have the
coinage stopped so that we could not use il,
but hold it as part of our national treasure
We propose TO Mr.. Lane that it be left in
the mountains. 1t would be more in ac-
cordance with his views of a national treas
ure that it be left in the ground. Leave
boots and shoes on the steer, wool on the
sheep and lumber in the tree. That is
new but peculiar way of accumulating a
natioEal treasure.

The books are at last going to be opened
the Treasury books. This was campaign
cry, and it would have sooner been carried
out had it not been that the civil service
dodge had rendered the proper changes in
the clerical force a matter OF so much time.
AT best it is seen that the Treasury book
keeping has been of the loosest kind. In
terest has been paid on large amounts for
which there was no warrant, and the more
the subject is pursued thu more certain it
becomes that the Treasury force, like those
of every other branch, has developed into a
state of the most careless ineffciency and
often OF criminal negligence.

THOUGHT OF THE HOUR.

THE bird that sings sweetly when golden
The earth is and gentle the wind.
When the bees mum their joy Ger the honey
That, hid in the flowers, they find,
When, vieing in beauty and fragrance,
Red roses and white lilies grow,
And butterflies, splendid in raiment,
Thro' their airy realm fit to and fro,
Is dear little songster; but dearer.
Is the bird that its joy-giying strain
Undaunted trills loudly and gaily
In spite of the chill and the rain;
For that to be jolly tbs easy
In sunshine there isn't doubt;
But, ahl it's sublime to be jolly
When there's naught to be jolly about.

Probably the battle of Lutzen was the dead

Reformation, and was fought near Halle, in Ger

Catholic League under Wallenstein, Duke of
Friedland and the Swedes and allied German
Professionals commanded by the famous Gustav

beginning of the battle, the Swedes numbered
20, 900, while the Imperalst had but IL, 900, but
during the contest the latter were reinforced by
