(The guena iu*ta A. M. C. ItOHSF.I.I,. RilHur, HVFIWA. UI’SSKIX. Asoel* Keillor ——'-—— Due: VUtn. Murion 00., CJr- FRIDAY MOUNINO, MARCH 10th, 1378. Political Wickedness in High Places Scarcely has the country got over the Babcock trial, before an other instance of corruption is pre sented for the consideration ot tbe honest and sober thinking people of the country. It seems that tho ofticcs of the Government are filled by men who do not understand the first principles of honesty—for they most certainly do not prac tice it. William W. Belknap, Secretary of War, has been guilty oi malfea sance and malpractice in office. On the 2nd, Clyn er, of Pennsyl vania, Chairman of the Commit tee on expenditures in the War De partment, presented the following resolutions to the House of Repre sentatives: “ Resolved , That William W. Belknap, la‘o Secretary of War, he impeached of high crimes and misdemeanors in office. “ Itesolvcd, That tho testimony in the case of Win. W. Belknap,late Secretary of War,be referred to the Judiciary Committee, with instruc tions to prepare and report, with out unnecessary delay, suitable ar ticles of impeachment against the faid Wm. W. Belknap, la efecre tarv of War. “lit solved, That a committee of five members of the House be ap pointed and instructed to proceed immediately to the bar of the Sen ate, and there impeach Wm. W. Belknap, late Secretary of War, in the name of the people of the Uni ted States, of high crimes and mis demeanor when in office, and in form that body that formal articles of impeachment will in due time be presented, anil to request the Senate to take such order in the premises as they may deem appro priate.” Belknap would certainly have been impeached had it not been pat President Grant accepted his resignation. The reason which Grant gives can he gathered from the following extract from a tele gram: <'Tlie President, in a conversation with friends to-night, stated em phatically that lie was not aware of the enormity of,the charge against Belknap at the time he tendered and the President accept ed his resignation. From the hur ried and incoherent manner of Belknap’s communication to him, the president drew the conclusion that Mrs. Belknap, and not her husband, was the guilty party, and that the General assumed all re sponsibility and censure in order to shield his wife. Although he did not inform the president that he was actually guilty himself, he confessed that he was not free from blame. The president says that ii he had known the full measure of Belknap’s guilt, he would not have yielded so readily to Belknap’sap peal in accepting the resignation in the mild terms he did—would have demanded that the official relations between them should im mediately cease, and that Belknap should at once vacate his office, and take all the consequences of his official misconduct. The pres ident had no suspicions up to ten o’clock to-day that Belknap’s offi cial conduct was the subject of in vestigation; and nothing could have occasioned him more sur prise than the communication made to him by Belknap himself at the time lie presented his written res ignation.” ' phe following telegraphic dis patches throw some light on the Buhject: “Clymer,' of Pennsylvania, chairman of the committee, made the following report: In obedi ence to the order of the House, we proceeded to the bar of the Senate, and in the name of this House and ol'all the people of the United States of America, wo impeach, as wo were directed to do, Wm. W. Belknap, lute Secretary of War ot the United States, of high crimes and misdemeanors while in office, and wo demanded that the Senate shall take order to make him appear before that body to answer for the same, and announced that the House would soon present ar ticles of impeachment and make them good, to which tho response was made. “Order shall bo tak en.” “Washington, March 3. —The Cabinet met at noon to-day, all the members being present, and re mained in session till after three o’clock in the evening. The subject that received conside ration was the institution ot crimi nal proceedings against Belknap and those who were associated with him in the practice of bribery and corruption that have just been officially discovered, and tho selec tion of anew Secretary of War. The president stated to the cabinet that while lie could take no stops which might look to the prosecu tion of any one, he had determin ed to shrink from no responsibility that rested upon him, and he there fore asked the Attorney General to take immediate steps to proceed with criminal charges against Gen eral Belknap, Messrs. Marsh and Tomlinson, and all others shown by any evidence that shall be ad duced to have had part in the pain ful transactions that were the sub ject of attention. Upon this deter mination of the president there were full and thorough expres sions of opinion favoring such ac tion as the president had determin ed upon without delay. Tho pe culiar character of the case of Gen eral Belknap’s offence, differing in many respects, as it does, from an ordinary case of comment and dis cussion the result of which xvas the reference of the entire matter to the Attorney General, who will take the necessary steps to enter criminal proceedings just as soon as the facts can he put in shape to be sworn to. Asa part of the discussion it is mentioned that there should he no delay in the proceedings because of the progress of an impeachment trial. The two trials will be entirely in dependent of each other. Judge Pierrepont remained at the Exec utive Mansion for a short time af ter the other Cabinet officers had gone to their respective depart ments for the purpose of getting what facts the president might be possessed of, in accordance with the determination to commence immediately the proceedings un der his charge. The discussion relative to the appointment of a successor to Secretary Belknap was of considerable length, but no decision was reached, and there will probably 7 be another Cabinet session about it. Tlicgissuranee is given that the person who will be appointed to the office will be a man of high character and known position.” “Washington; March 4. — r lhe sub-committee have completed the articles of impeachment. The Com mittee on expenditures of War De partment are said to be satisfied that Belknap’s possessions are worth a quarter million. General Custer telegraphed to Ueister Clymer that in his opinion there was no trading post westof the Mis souri river which had not been bought by parties holding it.” It seem3 that it is not enough that a man should prove himself unworthy of public trust, but lie must be rewarded for his dishones ty. Babcock’s friends have deter mined to raise thirty thousand dol lars to reimburse him for the mo ney paid out in his trial. Surely there does seem to he something in the proverbial “Honor among thieves.” Tbe House Committee on Terri‘ories have decided to report favorably tbe. Senate bill providing for the admission of New Mexico to the Union- T ie L gisli uie Our strictures last week on tho j Legislature luivo I icon l adversely i criticised by a frioml of tho paper., Ho says they are too sweeping, as they, ii his opinion, should have been made applicable especially to the Senate, the Representatives hav ing passed by handsome majorities all the bills advocated by ns, the re sponsibility of their defeat, resting therefore with the Senate. We cheerfully accord “honor to whom honor is due,” and blame to whom blame. Our remarks were not meant to reflect upon any individuals of cither branch of the Legislature, but upon the body and its actions ns a whole. It is generally admitted that the legislation of tho past session was very unsatisfactory, in ilie sum total, though several good and important bills were passed. Our ltepre-cntativc, Maj. K. W. Miller, discharged bis duty faithful ly, and flic State lias lost nothing by his course, while the county lias been great ly benefitted. There arc other honorable exceptions to gen eral charge of mediocrity of the Leg islature —in the Senate as well as in the House. A Constitutional Convention. On our first page will he found a communication from ‘“Rcdbouc,” under the above caption contain ing some telling arguments in fa vor of a Constitutional Convention. The “bone and sinew” of tiie land, the feeders of the country, who are most directly interested in the mat ter and are to be especially bene fitted or injured by the calling of a Canvention, all have asked for it. The opposition that it will entail a heavy expense. If the people want it and are willing to pay for it, let them have it. They are the interested parties. The Louisiana Senate, Republi can, in real or pretended fear of violence from the Conservatives, has had bars and other fastenings prepared with which to barricade the Chamber, and surrounded it self with a large number of' po lice. The hew Orleans Bic ayune and Times scoff at flic Sen ate’s panic, the latter saying: “The only circumstance that could have suggested apprehension at ail, is the suggestion in two reports from House committees that articles of impeachment be drawn against the Governor and Treasurer.” The Proposed Raid on Mexico. According to the New York Times General Slieriden’s plan for the imme diate pacification of die Mexican border j troubles is not regarded with favor in j Washington. lie proposed to enlis' ! ten thousand Texan militia for a short, sharp, and decisive campaign. With these, and full powers as military com mander and negotiator, the General thinks he will be able to restore peace in a surprisingly short period, and, a: ti e same time, acquire a slice of terri tory from our neighbor, comprising a tract of land “very rich in minerals,” and five hundred thousand square mile ill extent. Commissioner ilubb, I lie distinguished carpet-bagger who will b remembered as Collector of tuts lort, and who has spent two years on the border at a good fat salary, taking tes timony concerning tbe raid, has ano ther plan which embraces an immediate demand on Mexico for tbe eleven mil lion dollars claimed to be due on ac count of damages. Singularly enough he agrees, like General Sheridan, about acquiring in some way that cove ted tiact of Mexican soil, which is de ola ed to be ‘‘very rich in minerals.” It is properly said, remarks the Time-, that ten thousand Texas militiamen would be sure to get us into difficulties with Mexico; but nobody seems to see the impropriety of even discussing the possibilities of our being able to snatch away sundry square leagues of our neighbor's territory.— Sav. News. Havana, March 4. —lt is officially reported from Thomas L'eGiberbe, Feb. 29th, that three hundred Spanish cav alry, while scouring the country, met six hundred mounted Insurgents com manded by Maximo Gomez. The Spanish had hardly time to draw their sabres. A hand to hand combat fol lowed, lasting an hour, at tle end ol which time they remained masters of the battle field. Their loss was 2G kilii ed and 33 wounded. Loss of the ene my is considered at least equal. Cap tain General Javcllar reached the scene very soon after the fight. This is the first engagement of any consequence for a long time. The Nashville American is of the opinion that the New York partisan press, without distinction of party, would sooner see their respective par ty banners trail in the dust of defeat than see a Presidential ticket elected that was not avowedly in the interest of tbo Eastern money rings. .Among Our Suite Exchanges.

A clean, sleek, lat hog, is an ex-1 tremoly handsome iittlo creature, and to have them leisurely saunter ing about your premises, with his extreme rear extremity nicely curled up (as if some tiny hand had put it up in paper, which seems to be the pride of his swineship, and (lie ad miration of his owner) is the simplest business in all the world. Ho is not at all careful about how his food is pre pared, or how it is ollered to him.

With this kind ot treatment, from j day to day, he is a docile, quiet, | snug, cos3 r , little creature; but if you should neglect, or if it should other wise turn out that you were not in possession of the aforementioned in dispensibles, with which to gratify his craving, glutinous appetite, his swineship dwindles down, revealing to bis owner ail the attributes of a slab-sided shout, being armed with a bony structure which is attached to his Lee, lie w.ll m >vc nervously about thrusting said appendage, nose, rooter, proboscis or whatever you may please to call it, nto mother earth, making unsightly ho'es in the ground and with the assistance of the aforementioned rooter, he forces his way iuto some potatoe patch, corn or wheat fa Id, mid it .he cuuuot do any better lie wiil make it conven ient to meet up with an old Inn with a do,’,l’tt chickens and gobble them up, Unis creating a ills ttrbanec in acer- I tain part ot the It uts- hold where it ! is likely to be of a serious nature, i the good dame will “go for him,” ordering Johnny to loose old j Crunch.
