Republicans in Caucus.
We gave yesterday a partial account of the excitement occasioned in a Senatorial Republican caucus at Washington and also in the Senate of the United States, between the Grant wing and the Reform wing of the party.
We will now go back to the beginning of this controversy, so that the reader may have a clear understanding of the whole matter. In the first caucus which which met on this subject, a resolution was introduced instructing the Chairman to appoint a committee to inquire into the expediency of abolishing some of the present standing committees, and to report whether the public service requires that new standing committes be formed. Everything was moving smoothly, and no opposition to this proposition showed itself until Senator Frelinghuysen, in a short speech, remarked that he supposed that it was generally understood that the new committee would abolish the necessity of a Joint Committee on Retrenchment, and that Mr. Trumbull and those who supported his measures would withdraw it or abandon it. Mr. Trumbull said that he understood nothing of the sort that he had introduced his measure in good faith as a Senator, and had a right to have it considered. This was an era of reform the Democrats in New York had united with the Republicans to overthrow gigantic corruptions. Many defalcations had recently occurred among Government officers, and there were charges of more irregularities, and he was in favor of a thorough, searching investigation. If the charges were untrue, then let the party be vindicated from them, and let the vindication be published to the world. If the charges were true, then let reforms be made at once and the party relieved of the odium.
The debate was an acrimonious one, and it was at this time that Senator Edmunds is reported to have said, that the reform movement was part of a plot to injure the Administration, and declared with uplifted hands, that,
11
This Adminis
tration is ours, and, for one, I am unwilling to have every little short-coming dragged to the light and magnified." In this caucus Senators Trumbull, Schurz, Sumner, and all the rest of the reform Republicans were voted down, and it was agreed by the Administration men, that a oomuiittee should be formed, but that they should not have the power to send for "persons and papers." Of course, the reform Senators knew that this condition rendered the committee powerless to investigate into the frauds and stealings which have been going on in the many of the departments at Washington. If the committee could not send for "persons and papers," they simply could do nothing.
When this question came into the Senate for action, Sail the truly reform Senators voted to give the committee all the necessary power to enable it to ferret out corruption, whether at the White House or any where else. The Grant men, led by Senators Morton and Conkling fought this to its defeat.
The telegraph this morning is, that there has been another caucus on this subject, with the following result, "to agree to the organization of a Committee on Retrenchment and Reform, but taking away from it the power to consider the expediency of so amending the laws un der which appointments to the public service are now made as to provide against the public service being used as an instrument of political or party patronage. The resolution thus ameuded, instructs the com mittee to inquire into the expenditures of nil branches of the service of the United States, and report any and what offices ought to be abolished whether any or what salary or allowances ought to be reduced what are the methods for procuringaccountability in public agents or officers in care aud disbursement of public moneys, whether the moneys have been paid out illegally whether any offi cers or agents, or other persons, have beeu, or are employed in the public ser vice without authority of law, or unnecessarily and generally, how far, and to what extent the expeuses of the service of the country may and ought to be cui tilled.
The caucus then agreed upon the following named Senators to comprise the committee: Buckingham, Howe, Pratt, Harlan, Stewart, Pool and Bayard. The last named is the only Democrat on the committee. The caucus carefully excluded from the committee those who had taken part in the debate on retrenchment, and hence Trumbull and Schurz have no place on it.
It will be seen that this committee is powerless to inquire into the acts of the President in making appointments for political purposes, or for doing anything else, no matter how corrupt, if it can be shown that it was to advance his partisan iuterests. Was there eversuch unblushing audacity
The committee is composed also of quasi reformers men who are in favor jof reform in the civil service of the counouly from the lips out. Not one je,_true, determined, out-spoken, resreformer is on the committee. Sen^rumbufl, Schurz, Bumper, or men'
vasuii'.v...
of their thinking are not put on this committee. Are those men afraid for their acts to be brought to the light of day.
In referrring to the subject now under consideration, the Indianapolis Journal of this morning, speak? as follows: "Senator Nye disgraced himself and insulted the Republican party when he stated in the Senate on Tuesday that 'There is peace in the ranks now, save with one here and there who would be greater than his masterThe country is under obligations to Senators Schurz and Trumbull for fitly rebuking such insolence. The subject under discussion was the proposition to organize a committee on retrenchment, and certain Senators had taken occasion to criticise the plan_ proposed, and commented on the necessity of a thorough investigation into the alleged corruptions in the civil service. For this they were insulted and denounced as enemies of the Republican party. We can assure gentlemen who hold to such views that when it is understood that every man who favors a fearless exposition of official corruption is an enemy of the Republican party, it will, and ought to, have more enemies than friends. Senator Kye should not be permitted, in the name of the Republican party, to crack his whip over the backs of abler and better men. His presence in the Senate is bad enough —to allow him to rule it would be a national disgrace. Let us have strict attention to the public business, and no more talk about 'masters.'
Aud the New York Tribune has the following on this subject, in its last issue:
The United States Senate spent yesterday in debate as to whether the late Retrenchment Committee should be revived, with such power of investigation as it heretofore possessed. The strict Administration Senators tried to prevent it, and permitted themselves to assume the attitude of opposing liberal powers for investigating official corruption, because they believed it was intended to use them against the Administration. There was nothing wrong, they argued, which the Administration itself did not take the promptest measure to expose and punish. Therefore there should be no such investigation with power over persons and papers as that which, last year, began considering the affairs of the New York Custom House.
At the very hour this debate was Loing on, the bank troubles here were dragging to light the astounning fact that Mr. YVin. Callender, the United States Bank Examiner for this District, has been in the habit of borrowing very large sums of money from the banks on whose financial condition it is his sworn duty to report, and suppressing the fact of such loans in his reports, whereon the public have accredited these banks as sound! From one he had received seventy-five thousand dollars in each his worthless memorandum checks had absolutely been reported and counted as legal tender and it is feared that the end of this wretched work is not yet reached.
Messrs. Senators! you mistake the temper of the times I Till yesterday the public knew nothing of this Callender but they fear there are more Callenders in office! Wo protest against the wanton and stupid injury you do the Administration by placing it in the attitude of seeming to shrink from the fullest and most relentless scrutiny. You cannot make fish of Democratic corruptionists, and flesh of their Republican rivals. If there is corruption anywhere, out with it! We insist that you cease stabbing Gen. Grant in the back by opposing in his name in vestigations which he and every true fripnd of his and of the Republican party must want pushed to the utmost. Hunt down the Callenders and mark every mun their ally who tries to screen them from the hunt!
And on this same subject, the Chicago Tribune, of Friday, has the following The controversy in the United States Senate over Judge Trumbull's motion for the appointment of a Committee on Retrenchment is remarkable chiefly for th# fact that there should be any controversy at all. The Senate and House have had a joint Committee of Retrenchment for several years, and this committe a year ago made a report showing from testimony taken, the general immorality of the civil service system aud the demoralizing effect upon public officers resulting from the manner in which they were selected. This report showed the unnecessary expen.'iveuess of the .system and recommended various reforms to correct various abuses. The Chairman of this committee was Senator Patterson, of New Hampshire. When Congress met, it was resolved by certain self-constituted administrators of legislation that this committee should not be continued so, on Wednesday, Mr. Anthony, of Rhode Island, who is always selected as the organ of secret conclaves, offered a resolution providing for a standing committee of investigation and retrenchment, to consist of seven members, to be elected by the Senate, and have power to investigate and report upon such subjects as may be committed to it by the Senate. Mr. Trumbull moved to amend by a provision directing the committee to inquire into the expenditures in all the branches of the Government service whether any, and also what, offices ought to be abolished, and what salaries or allowances ought to be reduced, &c. also, giving it power to sit during the recess of Congress.
Here was a direct issue. Under the one resolution the committee was to be limited to inquire into such matters as a Senatorial caucus might direct under the other, the committee might investigate any fraud or abuse, and even inquire into the aflairs of the New York Custom House. If there be any need of such a committee at all—and that need is confessed by Anthony's resolution—why place a restraint upon it? Why require that, before it investigates the affairs of the Treasury Department, it must get permission of a secret caucus, and be bound to go no further than its special license? If the committee is to be nothing more than a sham or a frand -a mere pretence of honesty—why restrain the committee as to the matters of its investigation? The former committee ventured within the precincts of the New York Custom House, aud the result was extremely unfragraut. There are, perhaps, a huudred other places where the hand of reform is as strongly needed to put an end to shameless abuse?. Must the committee of the United States Senate, before it dare inquire whether 103 men are employed in a place where only ten are needed, first apiy to a caucus of the Senate, aud ask permission to report the abuse?
The reasons given for this limitation of the jurisdiction of the committee are most extraordinary. Mr. Edwards and Mr. Conkling object to letting the committee investigate frauds, on the ground that there are no frauds and the Senator from New York, speaking from personal acquaintance with Tom. Murphy, declares that the men now holding office under the Federal Government will compare favorably with those who served under Washington. For this reason he opposes any investigation, unless expressly ordered by himself and his caucus companions.
Senator Morton, while taking this same general view of the immaculate hands who collect and disburse the public revenue and perform the duties of official position, laid it down as the law,that no person could suggest an investigation into the civil service without being an enemy of the administration. To ordiuary mortals investigation can only be feared by those whose conduct will not bear publicity, but the Senator from Indiana charges that it is an act of emnity to investigate and A indicate the purity of a public officer. Taking the remarks of Senators Edmunds, Conkling and Morton as indicating the ideas of the majority as to the existence of abuses in the civil service and frauds and peculations in the public servie?, the country can form an idea of the extent to which the caucus will ever permit the standing
committee to inquir? iuto any official improprieties, wj
Do these Senators so underrate the popular intelligence as to suppose that their suppression of investigation will not be understood? Do they suppose that the country is ignorant of the fact that the civil service is in a bad way? Do they suppose that, by vouching for the purity of every man holding office under the Government, they can overcome the evidence to the contrary which is furnished by the officers themselves? Do not the President and the Secretary of the Treasury acknowledge the necessity of reform, and speak of tne healthful results which have attended the feeble efforts to that end already made
Senator Morton proposes to resist any effort to reform the civil service, and to meet'the universal demand of the country by a bold denial that any necessity for such reform exists. The country will not accept this denial, particularly when it is accompanied by a refusal to permit an investigation "into the expenditures in all the branches of the government services whether any, aud also what, offices ought to be abolished, and what salaries or allowances ought to be reduced." The Republican party and the people of the country will not be deceived by such a proceeding and, whether Mr. Morton consent or not, the people will, perhaps, find a way to accomplish the reform without asking his co-operation
Four Evils.—Whoever habitually uses any alcoholic preparations as an "appe tizer" will be likely to suffer from four evils, viz.: an overplus or food in the stomach, impaired ability to digest it, the pangs of dyspepsia, and a doctoi's bill. DK. WALKER'S VEGETABLE VINEGAR BITTERS, the great Teetotal Restorative of the age, without over stimulating the palate of irritating the stomach, imparts a healthful appetite, pro motes digestion, regulates the liver and bowels, purifies the blood, and thus, in stead of entailiugfour evils, confers four inestimable benefits. 6dvv4w

WE PROPOSE TO TEST THE QUESTION!
We believe our sales, even in our store before it was enlarged, and when we were
badly crippled for room, far exceeded those of any single Dry Goods establishment in
town. Now, owing to the splendid addition made to our store, which gives us, in our
three floors and basement, much the largest Dry Goods and Carpet Establishment in
this section of the State, we have ample room for doing an immense trade, and for
the accommodation of all our customers. Our recent sales, we believe, are
Greater than those of Any Two Other Dry Goods Houses
We propose to test the question by challenging any two of our competitors to com
COMPARE THEM THUS COMBINED WITH OURS,
Each firm to make affidavit to the correctness of the amount of sales reported, and to
permit inspection of any or all of their books that the committee may desire to ex
amine in order to arrive at a correct decision. We propose to show this community that in spite of the fact that every one of the
Dry Goods merchants of this city are combined against us, and in most instances do
not scruple to employ means, however unworthy, to injure our trade, we are still so
grandly supported in our warfare upon high prices by the people, that our sales have increased so rapidly as now to be, we believe, Greater than the Sales of any Two of
our Comjietitors Combined Now, gentlemen, walk up and "toe the mark," or else admit you DARE NOT make
the comparison of sales asked for. In the latter case do not let us hear anything more
