Congress should not hesitate TO furnish
the additional one hundred members OF the
police force asked for by the chief Of po-
lice and the District commissioners. Be.
sides doing this, the NATIONAL REruBL
CAN suggests that instead OF two classes
there should be three-that a roll Of merit
should be established, upon which the chief
Of police should I've authorized to place any
officer Of his force distinguished for good
behavior, courage, discretion, and that
those upon this roll should be paid at the
rate Of 800 per month. Instead Of paying
nine hundred and thousand and eighty
dollars per year to first and second class
policemen as now, the pay should be raised
Of the first class to $1,000 per year, and Of
the second class to Sl,lOO, with CORE
spending increase In the pay OF the officers.
Gallantry and good conduct should be
rewarded, and while the men on the police

exceptionally SO, and the government Of

our Republican Pioneers.

The coming together in this city OF the
survivors Of that band Of stu, dy Republic
can piorcers who led the great political
party OF freedom, union, and progress in
the carly days OF its life is a notable event,
and awakens memories full of interest and
instruction.
The Congress which repealed the Mis-.
souri, compromise preceded the one which
elected y. z. Banks as Speaker Ot the
members Of the House only two are hon.
ored guests at the capital today-eX-
Speaker Galusha \. Grow, the father Of the
homestead law, anl rnomas G, Flagler, Of
New York. Eouw look in vain among the
iaces OF the members Of the present Con-
gress to find one who belonged to the Con.
gress that repealed the Missouri compro-
mise.
The elections which followed the passage
Of the Kansas and Nebraska bill, which re-
pealed the Missouri compromise, resulted
In the defeat Of the Democratic party, but
the majority against that organization was
made up OF free soil Democrats, old-llne
Wings, and what were called the Know
Nothings. At that time no political organ
zation had heen formed In direct oppos.
tion to the Democratic party in the north.
ern states, but the men who were opposed
to the repeal Of the Missouri compromise
generally acted together without reference
to old political associations in electing
members Of Congress. The thirty-fourth
Congress, which met in December, 1856,
was made up Of these different ele.
ments, while the Democrats, with
nearly all Of their strength In the
south, We're united. When this mixed
opposition to the Democratic party began
the Speakership contest It tried number OF
! candidates, but finally agreed upon Banks,
| and after voting from the first Monday In
| December to the frst OF the following Feb
ruary It trumphautly elected Its candidate
| by a plurality resolution, which was after
ward adopted by the House. The Demo.
| Gratis, after voting on two or three candi-
| dates, united on William Aiken, OF South
| Carolina. For him they polled lOl votes,
| which, being the largest number of votes
polled Ter any one person, they thOnght
that no one else could get thar number, and
50 they agreed to the plurality resolut tion
| that was offered by the opposition, and 10
| their painful surprise, when the final vote
was taken Banks had .Uj votes ard Aiken
only 100 votes.
The veterans who fought in his great
! political contest Sc: the wheels OF freedom
in motion, which rolled on until every slave
was free. Not many Of this gallant baud
remain. Those OF them who could, have met
| here to commemorate the famous victory
| The welcome to them should be as warm as
their services to humanity have proven
| great. Their reception at the National
| League last night was worthy OF the o.ca-
sion and a memorable affair. The familiar
faces Of such men as Banks AMI Grow
grdced the brilliant gathering, and the
speeches told Of past Republican glory as
well as OF the victory which is to come.
May their soiourn here be a pleasant pas
time, and hereafter may "Time lay his han
upon their hearts gently, not shifting them
but as the harper lays his open palm upon
the harp to desden ito viLratiouo.n

The Alexandria Dldy Itcm gives Mr..
Coitett's reason for Offering and insisting
on ou amendment in the Virginia house OF
delegates to the senate bill incorporating
the Mount Vernon Avenue Association,
''tNe purpose being to protect the people
wLcm he represents in the amounts sub
scrited ty requiring the association to issue
ttock for the sum of $4,000, which the
.ity ard county Of Alexandria are author
il.d TO give in aid Of the project"
This proposition upon its face seems but
just ard fair, hut 1t shows, however, that
Mr., Lorbett has not examined the charter
as closely as bis duty as a legislator re.
qnirea him to do.
Mr.. Corbett, in the CANVASS, announced
himself as the warm friend OF Mount Ver-
non avenue, and 1t was fair to suppose that
be would treat the members of the Mount
Vernon Avenue Association with some con-
tidera,on before he attempted 10 destroy
.Le plan Of this patriotic movement.
Dufirg the presidency oi the late john
u. Smoot Of the association, the proposed
charter was discussed line by lins, and re-
,eived the unanimous approval Of every
Inenier OF the association, representing
Fairfax and Alexandria counties aud the
.ities Of Alexandria and Washington. The
proposition to issue stock was discussed
apd rejected; the association had faith IN
tie patriotism Of tie people, the national
govtrLmIrt, and the states 9f the
Union, a. well as Of the municipalities
in which IL would he located, that as soon
as he chatter was granted, the avenue To-
.",.d. SrdrisES % way obtained, the money
80 construct it could be raised without
ntuirg stock or bonds-that this great
IaHoI al highway, constructed by this gen
'ra'iop, would be the pride of the people
rld the glory Of the nation in all time to
,,roe. II this plan, agreed upon by the
s,,rc!a,ion, should fail, then the association
could memorialile the State Of Virginia TO
authorize them to issue stock.
The material benefits VIII accrue to the
municipalities which the avenue passes
through and not to the members OF the
hssoCiaiion, AS, when permanently organ
<td, IL will contain members from every
.''e and territory, as permitted in the pro-
POSED charter. Certainly there should be
10 objection on the part OF the city aud
county Of Alexandra, or Its representative,
20 the investment Of several hundred thou
'snd dollars by the people Of the United
States 10 construct this national highway
from the capital Of the nation TO the toni

Lue did not propose to establish to!l-gdtes

In behalf, therefore, Of the earnest friends
Of the enterprise we most respectfully urge
