Thb following appeared among the Washington special dicpatchps tc the Cincinnati Gazette of Monday last. While Judge Wilson ift being denounced by a few discontented0 Republicans and disappointed office-seekers at home, as weak-kneed, vascillating, , etc,, some of them even claiming him to be a nits -representative he is rapidly gainirg prominence in the halls of Congress for quite a different reputation:; :. : "- Judge Wilson, of Indiana, of the Judiciary Committee to whom was ro- : ferred the memorial of the Governors of Illinois, Indiana and Ohio, asking that .the two per cnt. claim for the sale of public lands might be at once adjusted,' in a speech before the House foreshadx owed the report from (he committee as favorable to, payment. Judge Wilson : 'Went over tho whole legal ground of the. case, and showed that the Government i bad not as yet complied with the laws so far as the States named are concerned. Judge Wilson has gained a high standing among hisrassociates 9 this committee, ' and the report when made, will carry much weight in tbe House." ' When it is reaembered th t the Ju- , diciary Committee of the House of Rep- . resectatives, as a whole, comprises more eminent legal ability, than any other committee of that tody, the compliment 'paid our Mcompefcnt member of congress above, and particularly when the disinterested source is taken into accountthe associated press despatches is com-, mended to the attention of our amiable ' Telegram neighbor; . If the amateur, editor, of the Richmond Independent, has not permitted his personal hostility towards Jndge Wilson to swallow up every vestige ; of fair-dealing "- and honesty towards that gentle man, he will take back the unfoun-1 ded charge he makes in his paper -that our Representative has aided in any way in what ho is pleased to term "the Beaver -Lake swindle." Will he do it? Thsrb's a very slight difference between saying that Jndge Wilson, ' is the "peer of the best ww in Congress," and ''the, best men in Congress."

' An Explanation in Order

' SvichmuauTrndiiBaTeb.M.lSIl B. W. ITisrI4itor Palladjnm. Sir A la the Issue tf your baiter T this date you take ociaio aenounee; that lum b present a litor of the Richmond Independaat' and attoiiatvtinf tbat Mr. Julian removed memmJQe dfflce of United State sjCjjesor, and appointed' Mr. Barton in" my place and as explanatory of my opposition to tbe renomiaation of Judge" Wilson yo say: 'After Mr. Wilson succeeded 5 Mr. Julian, Mr. Swift, the "warm supporter of Jerry Wilson at the last election." wentte his friend '"Jerry," and demanded the displacement of the brave and maimed soldier Burton, and his sustitution in bis stead. odest.-wasn't ttT but Mr, Wilson, like the uprijrbt, honest man that he ia, and the mend or we soldier that bo baa always prorod himself to be, told Mr. 8wi(t that he ought not to ask him to do this fieat wrong to one who bad almost suffered death . to preserve our country intact, and, who was now receiving a mesgre recognition of his ,. patriotic semces, by holding a little office. No, no; he could not do this thing for Mr. ex-Assessor Swift, and hence. Judge Wilton forfeited, thss friendship . that' had been so fwarmlyV bestowedr , ... , Permit mo to say to the readers or the Pal ladmm that I neither asked Judge Wilson to 1 removo-Burton bor to substitute me in his , atoad, and as a - eonsequenca that the re sponss alledged to have been made by Judge w; to me was aot and could not have been j jawde-ia short, - that tbe foregoing extract, ia without the hast foundation in fsctn corroboration of this statement you are referred ' to Judge Wihoir, who well knows tbe bovo . efasrge- to be untrue, and :. doubtless will not .heaitate tossy so. I therefore trust that your sense o( honor and. lore of fair-dealing will prempt yo to make an Immed'ate an? .qneondiiwMl retraction.!;. Very Respecfy. . - ..5V.,i- -.a; . .Rf H-Swiri. I iMjctJSwift, it will be : seen, makes hjs denial of our charge. embodied , in the above extract ima'de. :frcm ; an; tditoriat. article, aomewhat..eophalrc; bat not quite as mucb as it was before his sec ond sober thought caused him to amcna It, ; from , the copy from which, wo typed . his .article. ; In .his first draft, he pronounced tbe chargo 'in whole and in cart, in letter anil in spirit' false; but he .thought l best to tone.' it down, ana laus muo the compulsory ef fort, that he knew truth would re quire of him to swallow his own ' words, ; pleasant and ' agreeable! 'WitHoiit consuming more room . and time than really recessary,nd, as Mr. Swift has assumed the role r of Prosecuting Witness, against Judge 'riisov, we deslro to ask him a few questions, whilst he occupies the.: stand; all oC which we trust be will answer like a little man: let Were you not removed and Burton appointed in your place? w ' 2d ' Did you not see the announcement of your removal and Burton s appointment in the Cin cinnati 'Gazette,- : and' the earn day go in a buggy from Brookville to Conncrsville, and ' urgo Judge Wilson to- telegraph to the SenaA.

V 4th - Did yon not insist upon' it, and rge Judge Wilson to send a confidential telegram to the Sena tors, urging resistance to Bur ten's -confirmation; and did he not refuse to do so? ; . " , In conclusion, We suggest to Mr. R II. lit, that should he pluck up courage to answer these questions in the negative', perhapa some gentlemen from Franklin County may take occasion te ventilate him. : - TREATY-ALABAMA CLAIMS. The threatened rupture of the Treaty on the part of the British Government, is all the more extra ordinary in view of the fact that everything was 'taken into consid eration before ' the Treaty was formed and ratified, and that noth . iog has yet' been decided under it. The case on the American side has simply- been' 1 prepared' for the chosen Court of Arbitration, whose decision tbe English people threat en in advance to repudiate. That 6uch a course ia tmjostiflable is evident from the very prelimina ries to the Treaty. The Preamble shows that the points now called up were the very ones under con sideration. It reads: "wnereas differences have arisen between the Government of tho United States and the Government of Her Britannio Majesty, growing out of the acta committed by the several vessels which have given rise to the claims generally known as the Alabama Claims; nd whereas Her Britannic Majesty has authorized her Hiffh Commissioners and Plenipotentiaries to express in friendly spirit the regret fell by Hex Maiesty s Government lor ine escape under whatever circumstan ces of the Alabama and other vessels from British ports, and lor the depredations committed by these vessels; now, in order to remove all complaints and olaimson the port of the United States, and to provide for the settlement - of Her Britannio.: Majesty's Government, the contracting parties agree that all the said claims growiog out of acts committed by the aforesaid vessels, and generally known aa the Alabama Claims, thall be referred to a Tribunal of Arbitration," 4c. -The ; duties of the Court of Arbitration are thus defined In' fche body of the Treaty. "The arbitrators shall' meet in Geneva, In Switzerland, at the earliest day "feqnvenlent after they shall have been namea, ana snau I DIDGeCU uuuuuwj -uv. -. i ; that 8nftil be faid before them on-the' part ot; the Government of : be United States and Her Britannic niaesiy.ro84ic j-. It dees not appear that anything remains to be done on the part of onr rrovernment. It was not for onr interest, excepting in the com uon interest of humanity, to have these quetiona r referred to any

The negotiations were conducted in the right spirit " The court was selected in the same spirit., .' And now that a heavy bill is presented (not yet even allowed by the court), John Bull flares up and tbreatens to run bis horn through the Treaty and tear it to pjeces. vve should -say, let - him do it, were there hot so many" lir terests at stake in which -the world at large Is njaeh more deeplyt Interested I than weare. VTl'o "ex pressions of felnuly international feeling. on both sides were regard cd, at tho time of, the forming of the Treaty, as full of promise for the .settlement or such, disputes among; nations by arbitrations inBicsu 01 Dy- war., yur-, government and people, although. haying most !to lose by such a course, were : not backward r in securing such a settlement. , If the ; Treaty should be thwarted, after havina iecb thud enicmtily ralinenid the yoor t Of Arburation; disregarded or broken up, the responsibility would not rest with the" United Mates, but with the .English peOr pie and the.'EnglisU Government. CONGRESSIONAL ... In the Senate Feb. 14th the Indian bill waa reported, with amendments. . MrV Sumneb called up his resolution of investigation into the alleged manufacture of arms for France in tho workshops of the United States. Mr. - Skkruak opposed the resolution, as being intended to excite' a political debate." Mr. Conkuno wanted tbe matter disposed of af occe, as ho believed it to bo a blank cartridge. Tho resolution was taken up, and ' Ir. Sounsb spoke on the resolution until the expiration of t)e morning hour, when tbe question or post pomng the general appropriation Lid and going on with the discussion came up. Mr. Sherma .renewed his opposition.' Messrs. YVilso, Trcmbulu Cabpenteb, Mokto.v, and Tiptos favored going on with the discussion, and the Senate agreed to do so. Mr. Som.yer then resumed his speech. He disclaimed ail political' motives n bringing forward tho resolution. Tba discussion continued unt'l adjournment. Mr. Wilson said that from the end . .of the war to June 30. 1871,' the sale of arms and munitions by the government had amounted to $1,510,261,43, all of which was turned into the Treasury, He said ha. was authorized to say our gov ernment bau never sold any arms to the French, government, L or .to any. one known to represent them As. to the sales to the Remingtons,' Mr. Onkxinq said that firm had been for years large aeaiers in arms, ana maae ' large pur chases . for the government, and our gov ernment had no reason to believe them agents of the French government. in tbe House the bill to repeal the. du ties on tea and coffee was reported by ear: riNKKLNBuno. wno saia it waa done because tbe Houso ordered it. the majority of the committee being opposod to it. Tho bill was Preferred to Com mittee of Lho Whole. Bills passed an1 propnating $300,000 for , new buildings in Hartford, SICO.COO for tho same at Indianapolis, and $300,000 to purchase a 6ite tor new buildings in Cincinnati Tba House went into committee on the naval appropriation bill, and continued tne discussion of it. When the House rose a resolutioa was oassed direclin? the Clerk to furnish to the Senate, for use ia executive session, copies of . the testimony taken by the House Committee on the imneachment of Asdrbit Johssoh. Adjourned. A Novel Gun-Carriage. uut in a eertain western tort, some time ago the major conceived the idea that artillery might be used effectively in righting with the Indians, by dispensing with gun-carriages and fastening the Can non' upon the backs of mules. So he ex plained his views to the commandant; and it was determined to try the exoeri- .' ment. A small howitzer was selected and strapped upon aa ambulance mulet with the muaele pointing toward Lho tail. ! When they had secured tho gun, ' and loaded it with ball-ear tridge, they ted that Calm and stead fas. t mule out to the bluff and set up a- target in the middle of the river to practise at. The rear of the mole was turned toward the target,' and he was backed gently up to the edge of the bluff. The officers stood around,-jn a semicircle, while the major went up and inserted a time fuse in the touchhole of tho howitzer Vvhen the .fuse was ready, the major lit it . and retired. In a minute or two the hitherto unruffled mule heard the fizzing back there on his neck, and it made him uneasy. He reached his head around to ascertain what was going on, and, as he did so, his body turned and the howitzer began to sweep around the horizon.. The mute at last became excited, as his curiosity grew more and more instense, and in a second or two he was standing with his four legs in a bunch, making six revolu tions a minute, and the howitzer, under stand, threatening sudden death to every man within half a mile. The command ant was observed to climb suddenly up a tree; the lieutenants were seen sliding over the bluff into tbe nver, as if they didn't cate at all about the high piioe of uniforms; the adjutant made good time toward the fort, the sergeant began to throw up breastworks with his bayonet, and the major rolled over on the ground and groaned. In two or three minutes there was a puff of smoke, a dull thud. and the mule oh I where was her- A solitary jsckass might have been turning successive back-somersaults over the. bluff, Jnly to rest at anchor, finally, with his howitzer, at the -bottom of .the river; while the ball went ofl towardtho fort, hit the chimney in the major's quarters: rattled the adobe bricks down into the parlor, and frightened the major's wife into convulsions They do not ralIude to it now, and no report of tne results of the experiment was ever sent; to the ''War ; Department Philadelphia ' Sunday Dispatch. ..j,,----. :;
