THURSDAY, DECEMBER 21, 1871.

T. H.

S. W. R. R.

We have not the files of the GAZETTE at hand, but if our memory serves us right the venerable editor of the evening paper is inconsistent in his opposition to this township taking §150,000 in the stock of the Terre Haute & Southwestern Railroad. Our cotemporary advocated the city investment of$100,000 in the Terre Haute & Cincinnati Railroad when the conditions therefor extended only from this point to Eel river, a distance of twenty-live miles. The GAZETTE on the question of railroad improvements

and

now

looks incon

sistent, audits arguments in both instances shoul'i be carefully contrasted by the people of this township.—Journal.

There no parallel between the two roads. Or rather, the propositions the two roads make to this people for assistance bear uo resemblance, the one to the other. The Terre Haute & Cincinnati company proposed to build a road from this city to Cincinnati. It then proposed to build twenty-five miles of that road, commencing at this city, and run a train of cars over it four months from a fixed date. It then proposed to build its principal machine shops in this city. It then agreed to enter the city at such a point, and in such a manner that it would much benefit the city. It then agreed to run in such, a direction that it would bring additional coal, stone and iron.ore to this city. In consideration of all those several agreements and stipulations it asked the city of Terre Haute to subscribe $100,000 to the capital stock of the company but not one dollar of this money is to be paid until twenty-five miles of the road is completed and a train of cars have passed over it. Now, those are the conditions under which we advocated the city subscribing $100,000 to the capital stock of the C. & T. II. R. R.

ITow does the case stand with the T. II. & S. W. Railroad Company? They have no organization which reaches over twenty miles, aud we understand they can not even organize for the purpose of reaching into Illinois, until there is legislative action by that State. They do not propose to build the twenty miles of their roud, nor one foot of it, bejore they want the $150,000. They do not agree to build their machino shops, or any other shops, here. They do not say how or where the road will enter the city. They do not propose to run through a section of country rich in either coal, stone, or iron, and in fact the region through which it does propose to run, already makes this city its place of market. Then, in these several important, particulars, there is not the least similitude, not the most distant resemblance between the C. & T. H. and the T. II. & S. W. railroads. The one proposes to build twenty-five miles of road, before asking the city for one cent, and the other asks the township for $150,000, before it proposes to build one foot. The one proposes to connect this city by a much shorter line than now connects it, with the city of Cincinnati. The other proposes to extend its giant length to some point on the Wabash river. The ona has a surveyed route, and subscriptions have been made all along that route. On the other there has never even yet been a survey, and no organization has been made by which a survey or could cross the Wabash river.

Where, then, is the similarity between the two roads? The oue proposes to spend on the building of the road, three times the amount they ask from the city, before they touch one cent of the city's money, while the other proposes to expend $150,000 of the people's money before they spend one cent of the company's. Where, again we ask, is there a similitude?

It is not, therefore, apparent to us that we are "inconstantinfavoring one and opposing the other.

THE excitement in the Senate on the civil service reform is subsiding, and the friends of reform have nothing to regret that it took place. The liberal elemeat in the Republican party aud the opposition to the party being further controled by such men as Conkliug, Chandler, Cameron &Co., and the opposition to the renomination of Presideut Grant, marshaled such strength, and displayed such power and determination, that the Administration leaders found it advisable to make the best terms they could. It would be interesting to see the politicians who have the President under their thumbs, undertake to control such statesmen a3 Trumbull, Sumner and Schurz.

In referring to the final closing of the debate, the special to the Cincinnati Enquirer, from Washington, says: "The contest between the conservative Republicans and Democrats on one side and the Administration Senators on the other ended in the Senate to-day by a substantial triumph of the former in the adoption of instructions to the Committee on Retrenchment to investigate the New York Custom House and all its abuses, its recent influence over the Republican State Convention in New York, the Treasury defalcation, the Hodge defalcation, and the National Bank Examiner

kwho

was involved in the late bank suslsions in New York. instructions proposed by Messrs.

Trumbull and Tipton, of the is, and Bayard and Casserly, loorats—which had been

accepted ttHlaV-'U.V iihe Semite without a dissenting volca, Indi-eu, tho coinsnitlee were uatuiinioihiy instructed to y.o ahoa'l and semi for 'person and piipcr?."

And the special# to the Commercial speak of it in the following language: "The Senate supplemented its week's work to-day, by treating its committee very much as the Sabinesdid the treacherous Terpeia, after she had let the enemies into Rome—absolutely covered it up with work. First there were the Treasury defalcations and Conkling's New York Cu-tom House investigation resolution amended by Schurz to make it stronger, and afterward by Tipton and Bayard, who wished to get at the facts in relation to the use of Custom House officials in carrying the late

Republican Convention in New York in the interest of the Custom House faction. Each of these amendments Mr. Conkling admitted as a part of his original resolution, saying as each additional came in, "No objection, Mr. President, until the Senate was almost in a roar of laughter. The Hodge defalcation and the Callender frauds were added, until the Chairman of the Committee, Mr. Buckingham, was obliged to beg for mercy, and, bending under the load that had been already thrown upon him, mildly, suggested that if that sort of thing went on more business would be referred to the'eommittee than it could possibly attend to. But the Senate had no mercy, for Frank Blair came down with a resolution sending the charges against Minister Schenck to the same committee, and Mr. Sumner followed with a resolution asking for information about the cost of keeping naval vessels about San Domingo.

This last dose was too much for Conkling, aud he objected to the present consideration of the resolution in regard to the cost of the war dance."

The moral force of the Administration party, has been much weakened in this contest. The Republican party all over the country rallied, almost unanimously and enthusiastically to the support of Trumbull, Sumner and Schurz. The politicians of the Senate at once took the alarm, and came down as gracefully as possible. All honor to tjie liberal minded aud truly reformatory Senators, Messrs. Trumbull, Sumner, Schurz, Tipton, Logan and the rest.

THE Fort Wayne Gazette, one of the ablest Republican papers in the State, iu an article referring to the recent debate in the Senate 011 civil service reform, concludes as follows: "Then think of the attempt of such men as Colliding and Chandler, and even Sherman, to read out of the party such men as Lyman Trumbull, who is the woitby author of the famous Civil Rights Bill, and of some of the most vital measures of Republican legislation during the past ten years! The people will not stand it, for it takes more than thirty-lour Senators to deeide on the measures which are to form the platform of the party.

No, it will not do. If there aro abuses in the Republican party, let them be reformed it there is corruption, let it be investigated if there are frauds, lot them be exposed, for in this way it will show beyond all question, that it is worthy of continued support, confidence aud success. The following eloquent and truthful paragraph from one of Senator Trumbull's speeches in the great debate, is worthy the consideration of every true friend of the Republican party:

Sir, who is the best friend of the Republican party, I10 who goes to work to ferret out and reform its abuses—for it is admitted that abuses do exist—or he who throws first one obstacle and then another in the way of investigation because the committee proposed ia not precisely theono ho wants? If it is expected by Senators that the Republican party, which has hitherto dono so much for human liberty, its own and its country's honor, and for mankind, is to preserve its escutcheon untarnished, they must purify it of all corruption and mLiko it a party of progress and reform and the day thap it shall begin, under one subtifugo or another, to hide iniquities, to cover up defalcations and fraud, that day it will be^in to fall in public estimation and soon go down in disgrace under the condemnation of an honest peo^e."

Such political parasites as the Terre Haute hxpress, should profit by this example of a brother Republican. By the way, does any know 011 which sidestands our neighbor? Is he on the side of Trumbull or Chandler? Is he for reform truly, or just for it a little.

The position of our neighbor on this important question reminds us of an anecdote of the late John G. Davis. At the time be was making one of his canvasses in this District the prohibitory liquor law became an important, but very delicate question, in the canvass. Davis had almost finished the campaign and no one had interrogated him on the troublesome question of prohibition. At last, however, the terrible question came, for just as he was finishing almost the Ia3t speech he had to make, an old Democratic sinner, away off on one side of the audience, arose to his feet, aud screamed out at the top of his voice: "Mr. Davis, I want to know how you stand on the prohibitory liquor law." Davis was caught, but was equal to the occasion. Turning to the man and looking him full iu the face, and pointing at him his long, bony finger, he replied, "Ah! ray Democratic friend, I am glad you called my attention to that subject. I thank, you my old Democratic friend, that you give me an opportunity to fully explain myself on so interesting a question. Aud uow, my friend, (still pointing his finger at hifii,) I want you and all others to understand that on the prohibitory liquor law, I am all right." This seemed to be satisfactory to all, and the old Democrat sat down, saying he always knew his friend Davis was "all right" on that question.

How is the Express on reform?

"IT is an insult to the people of Mississippi that Ames should register his namo at Washington as "a Mis^issipi Senator." Ho doesn't own a foot ot fand in the State, nor pay a single dollar of taxes. He once resided a few months at Vicksburg as an army officer but on his return there be even refused to pay bis poll tax."—Nashville Union and American.

All correct. General Ames is a Republican "carpet-bagger." And now is it not an '.nsult to the people of Texas for Captain John C. Conuer to register his name at Washington as the Representative of the Second District of Texas He doesn't own a foot of land in the State, nor pay a single dollar of taxes. He resided a few months in Texas as a Captain of the Fortylirst Infantry, and was then elected to Congress by the Democracy of the Second District.—Louisville Commercial.

Of course "It is an iusult" iu both cases«^ -if jirf a "Mb. WiiiSON said in the Senate me other day that 'there are Republican thieves as well Democratic thieves.' This

could a Republican steal ?"—Couricr-Jc*ir»

That is easily cxplaincJ. Some of ihw Republicans were formerly Democrats, and it is somewhat hard for them to get rid oV their old habits.—Louisville Commercial.

Does the Commercial intend to slap the President in the face, by that remark

PERHAPS this is the remark attributed to the distinguished Senator from Illinois, that leads the Chronicle to class him with the advocates of Grant's reelection: "Mr. Trumbull disclaims any feeling but that of Uindues3 toward the President, and says that if it were possible for him (Grant) to rise to an appreciation of his high office, he would be willing to see him President four years more."

Four Evils.—Whoever habitually uses any alcoholic preparations as an "appetizer" will be likely to smTer from four evils, viz.: an overplus or food in the stomach, impaired ability to digest it, the pangs of dyspepsia, and a doctor's bill. DK. WALKER'S VEGETABLE VINEGAR BITTKHS, the great Teetotal Restorative of the age, without over stimulating the palate of irritating the stomach, imparts a healthlul appetite, promotes digestion, regulates the liver and bowels, purifies the blood, and thus, instead of entailing four evils, confers four inestimable benefits.
