All thei Kind legal minds hero nro of tho opinion llml the p!e*u to the jurisdiction is good end that no power to impeach tho ex war minister rosidee in that body, but suvcral days will bo sacrificed to rhetoric and logic before the matter is decided. Thu House is becoming inoro energetic, still much timet Inis been e xhausted in personal explanations from did rent members who huvo been attuckcd by tho partisan proas. In tho oommiU . tee rooms matters are hi coming brisk. Most of these are daily crowded with documents, witnesses, and other nee- •saury facilities for investigation. Wit- netu.'s are eoustuully arriving hero for tho purpose of testifying. Homo of the in tiro in possession of valuable ovidenee, while others are devoid of anything worthy the consideration of the Committees. A careful oetirnnto si ows that at loasl one hundred wit* 11esses have secured a phmB iut so* joinn at tho Capital without render ing uty adequate lorvlcu in roturu. The icports of most of ihooumiuitleos will bo volnutiiious, and should they all go in’o print, it will cost a fabu lous sum. As soon as Great J’-ritain announc ed her intuition of releasing Win slow, tit ay and Bronl, the tbreo thieves and forgers, the matter wan brought up in tho Cabinet here, and aftir a warm discussion of the ease, Hcoietaay Fish, with tho unauimoiiB content of the President and his ad* visers, notified Kail Derby that the United Stub a desired to discontinue tittich> ten of tho Extradition treaty re'luting to tho < xtradition of crimiti* hIh. This action has caused consid erably excitement in official circles here, and by many the com ho taken by Great Britain iveoiisidurul a stud ied insult to tho American govern* imlit, for the j urpnio of provoking hostilities. Wo will nut piobubly i (Kill hot husto to war about it, how* »vor. Two gnat nations cannot af ford to tight over tliroo notorious scamps bo long as a peaceful settle- merit of the difficulties aim he obtain ed. Throwing principle aside, Ku« gh ud ia welcome to tho Hghl-llugt r- ed iniioreautH. Lot hor opeu bur Bow street jail doors and set these fugi tives from ju.iliue free, to prey upon her already thief-ridden people, if alio fco chooses. She cm have morn of the i^uuc ilk, if alio will; more vile and oven more prominent thieves than they. For instance, Bosh Tweed, the prince of six millions, uih»ht lake up his quart ora on tho banks of thu bou- nio Thames, and occasionally *1)1111 the bunnrais of London and "corner" the boars. Thereto power will bu exorcis t d K»ou. Thu President h»)h that tho enormous induction in the ‘consular and diplomatic bill will pinch and eripplo our foreign service to such a degree as to rollout discredit on the American people, and as he Iuib no desire to bo a party to such transac tion he will promptly veto t!.o meat- Uro when it oouies to tho executive oflico for his signature. Tho Presi dent has a quill taken from tho tail of a Gray foieht eagle, captured in tho Rocky Mountains, with which ho \ igiiB all the measures of Congress, and liu doea not wish to ubo tho iu- Htrumcnt in anything that will detract bo disrespectful to the law-makors of our nation. And that .Scriptuio which says, "Thou ahull not speak evil of tho ruler of thy people,’' no good man should forget. But it is staling the case mildly to say that tho Congres sional debates which reach thu poo* pie through the public prints ure, as a general thing, marked by ucithcr dignity, ability nor usefulness. Their occasional intense bitterness is conspicuous. If one would see what resources tho English tongue contains for personal and partisan vituperation bo should read ilia speeches that are gone rally deliver* d upon what they call "field days" in Congress. Men and women crowd the galleries upon ruch occasions with very much the same feeling that gathers a mob to witness a Spanish bull-light. It seems to ho a question only of horns and hoofs. It is a sorry spectacle indeed, when, instead of fairly discussing great questions, men hurl at each oth er's heads epithets and nhjurguti that a better ago regarded as fit only for heel-gardens and cook-pits. How it would iihlonish the country if thu two Houses should discuss and settle even one question in tho spirit of llio good and wiso men who, us Senators and Representatives, once shed bistro on tho American nnmo I No; we lmvo ceased to expect high oratory and |»ii)'0 patriotism in llio <h hates of our Congress. There wo a few honorable exceptions; there are a few of both paitaswlio mo not inse-usil.lo to thu obligations of good breeding and to I liu proprieties of tlu ir high station. They are the more deserving of honor in that they keep IhoinstlvcM pure "in tho mieU of a crooked and pci verso generation.” But what uro they among so many V In it not an appalling fuel that wo wo expect, when wo take up e<ur morn ing paper, to find that, on yesterday, men or.cupvii g llio highest position in tho councils of the nation employed their opportunity to apeak by calling each other liuru and thieves V Boons of them talk and behavoasif they f. It themselves to be, and know all others to la-, unmitigated blue kguanla. Wo am utterly unwilling to bed ovo the half of the dreadful things they Buy of each other. But either horn el the dih urn is sharp, if what tin y say of cr.eh other is true, whnl soil of Congrehii have we V .11 what they say of etie'll other is f ilm', what sort of CqggrcHs have wo? The ro.idur i take I h choice*. Is there a remody ? If so, is it not in the hands of the people tin msolves? But huvo tho people virtue tnough to S ilncn I ho best men in office? They lid once—long timo ago. Tho Boston Pilot has b«*on sold to Archbishop Williams and John Boyle O'Reilly. Tho price piid wan $28,- 000, in addition to which tho pur chasers taka up a mortgage e»f $0,500 and fulfil (ho existing contracts of the paper to subs'rrihers. Judge Black says that tbo differ ence belwcon him and Judge Davis is that ho is a domocr.it hut not a can didate, while Davis is a candidate but not a democrat. , In another column will bo found llio advertisement of tho Gem Organ Company. The Organs manufactured by this Company have no superior and are warrunted for five years, j in 'I from tho glory ami dignity of the* J! IU | J Republic.

A Into number of tho London Spec tator in rnmmenting on certain do- biiit H in Pavlifimunt, said quite istig*- gestivoly: "At prcBcnt llio Ileum) uf eelimioUM miikrs too little dibit ill moral dV«d.
