Custom House Thieving.

The press of the country, or rather that portion of it which endeavors to expose great rascalities even though they are found in the party to which it belongs, are n»w laying, from day to day, before the people the great official thieving that is being brought to light by the investigation now going on at the Custom Houae in the city of New York. In character, they are equal to the stealings of Tweed and Sweeney, but not so extensive. They bear about the same relation to the magnificent thieving of the New York city officials that a five cent piece does to a dollar—equally pure in genuine rascality, but not so large.

The New York Tribune, in its last issue, speaks of the revelations already made in the following language! "If the disgraceful General Order business at this port is not doomed to be swept out of existence, then there is no virtue in investigations. The proceedings before the Senate Committee on Custom House Abuses, yesterday, will convince every candid man that a shameful, autrageous, and scandalous imposition has been practiced upon the business community ever since Col. Leet's company have had the General Order business. The redoubtable Leet, on the witness-stand, yesterday, was compelled to make a clean breast of the whole transaction. It does not vary materially from the account heretofore given by the Ti'ibune, but, as coming from the lips of the operator himself, it has a posiitive interest. His evidence Bhows that he had made up his mind that he oua ht to have some of the "plums" which he had heard were to be picked up in this city he shrewdly guessed that Mr. Moses H. Grinnell was to be Collector, and, though he had no "politicfl influence," he went to the President and procured a strong letter to Mr. Grinnell. That document, which is printed in the testimony, is a general recommendation of Col. Leet's business qualifications, addressed by the President to the man whom he was about to make Collector of this port. The President tacitly confessed to Leet, when he gave him this letter, that Mr. Grinnell was the coming Collector he gave the recommendation for no other reason than that. We know all the rept of the story and Col. Lent has shown how he thus secured his "p^tun," whicfc w"*8 handled by Bixby & Co., while he stood in the background, doing absolutely nothing but drawing his handsome share of the profits of the business. If this was not being paid for "political influence," we would like to know what it was.

There are other points in this remarkable testimony which will need elucidation hereafter, but the main facts are too scandalous for light comment. The most valuable perquisite in the gift of the Government is given to a.friend of the President he makes a handsome annual iucome by procuring it remonstrances of importers, protests of the Collector, and the dissatisfaction of the Secretary of the Treasury, are all unavailing to break up this monopoly and take away this "plum." Leet holds on to it in spite of all efforts to dispossess him of it. Need any more be said? The case is clearly made out, and the veil is withdrawn from one of the most shameless pieces of official extortion, mismanagement and plunder ever set up in a commercial community. The Tribune'3 asseverations have been so far overtopped by the actual revelations, that, looking back upon tluim now, they seem modest and dim in comparison."

What General Grant will do, or how he will explain all the circumstances of this case, remains yet to be seen. That they are damaging to him and his prospects for the Republican nomination, is becoming alarmingly apparent.

It is oppressively humiliating to the honorable impulses of every citizen of this great Republic, to behold its Chief Magistrate complicated in so many questionable

tFansactions.

There is the Fisk «fc Corbin' affair, in which the President's wife made $25,000. Then the taking as a present a dwelling house in Washington then one by the sea shore then receiving all kinds of presents then appointing all his relations to fat offices then all his wife's ^relations then spending months of time associating with the fast men and faster women at Long Branch theu giving Col. Leet a letter to the unappointed Collector of Customs at New York then this same Leet receiving the appointment of the "special order business," the perquisits of which ^mounted to over $200,000 per annum then Leet also drawing a salary as Clerk iu the War Department, and then this being all understood in the "mess," and the "mess" being the persons who stay at the White House, and eatat the President's table. Wesay that all this is humiliating to an American citizen, and creates a suspicion against the President in the popular mind, which eveh though it may not be well founded, is very much calculated to loosen the hold he has heretofore had on popular favor.

We really hope General Grant will be able to entirely exonerate himself from the grave suspicions of this "general order business," for the view now taken of the whole matter bears most heavily on him. To turn Col. Leet out of office is not enough. He must show by proof conclusive that he was the innocent victim of overreaching men. And after he has shown this, it wil! then be a question for the people to settle, whether they desire further to intrust their affairs in the hands of one so easily overreached.

Superintendent of Public Instruction. Among the many names that will be before the Republican Convention, for the nomination of Superintendent of Public Instruction, we notice that of our former fellow-citizen, Rev. B. Wilson Smith, favorably spoken of. Perhaps a better Superintendent could not be selected within tbe borders of the State. Young, industrious, ener^etio, highly ed»

Ucated and full bf etithiMasm ftfr the School system Of. our State, he would bring to bear on the Official position all the requisites nedeSsary to fill the office properly. Not only so, but Mr. Smith is an effective popular speaker, and would make a strong canvass of the State. 'If the convention does its duty, he will receive 1 is nomination.

From the Indianapolis Journal Jan. 25. I. C. & L. RAILROAD.

Opinion of Judge (Jresham on tbe Petition of the First National Bank of Lawrencebnrg—in Bankruptcy.

The Petition Refused.

The following decision was made by Judge Gresham in the United States District Court in Bankruptcy, yesterday, in the case recently argued before him in New Albany. The prayer of the First National Bank of Lawrenceburg, the plan tiff in the proceeding, is refused.

In the matter of the Indianapolis, Cincinnati & LaFayette Railroad Company The First National Bank of Lawrenceburg presents its petition which after various recitals, prays that Thomas A. Morris and Melville E. Inealls, the assingnees in this ease, be required to take into their possession and manage and conrol the property and fran chise of. the bankrupt corporation, the Indianapolis, Cincinnati &• LaFayette Railroad Company, is their characters as such assignees in bankruptcy. The petition is filed under the proceedings in bankruptcy now pending in this court, commenced by the

Eetition

Under this bill a cross bill was filed in the Marion Civil Circuit Court by the Bank of Commerce of New York against the railroad company, seeking to forclose a mortgage made to secure its bonds issued June 1, 18^9.

Upon the bill first mentioned, the State Court having the parties before it, appointed Morris and Ingalls receivers, pursuant to the prayer of the bill, who accepted the.trust and complied with tbe order of the Court prescribing the terms of their qualifications, and under tbe cross bill, upon motion, tb« Court extended the powers of the Receivers under their original appointment, so as to embrace tbe interests brought before it by the cross bill.

Subsequently the proceedings in the State Court was transferred to the Circuit Court of the United States for the District of Indiana, where the cause is now pending.

It will thus be seen that these gentlemen, Morris and Ingalls, are in the custody of the property and franchises of this corporation by authority of the State Court under the bill and cross bill which have been mentioned and that being so in possession, they are the duly qualified assignees in bankruptcy of the same corporation.

Th« object of the petition now under consideration, is to compel.the execution of their trust as assignees in bankruptcy, by a decree requiring them to possess, and bold, and manage the said property and franchise? as assignees in bankruptcy, and terminating thereby their further relation to this corporation as its receivers.

Exceptions were filed to the petition in the nature of a demurrer. The questions raised were fully argued. Counsel for the petitioner insist that the proceedings of the Marion Civil Circuit Court are void for want of jurisdiction that the- statute of Indiana, uuder which the State court acted, being in conflict with the bankrupt act, ceased to operate after the passage of that law, and could therefore confer no jurisdiction upou the court to do what it attempted to do in this instance and that the subsequent filing Of the cross bill by the Bank of Commerce, and the action of thecourt thereon extending the powers of tbe receivers, were equally void for want of jurisdiction.

On the other hand, it is urged that the Marion Civil Circuit Court had jurisdiction of the subject matter, and had acquired jurisdiction of the persons, and that therefore its proceedings were not void and that even had there been an error in its proceedings, they could only be corrected upon appeal, and cpnnot be Collaterally reviewed in this proceeding.

The importance of the questions tbbs presented is apparent. It is therefore also important in the settlement of matters of such gravity that they should be presented in this court by"some party authorized to speak. But it is disclosed in this case that the petitioner—the First National Bauk of Lawrencebnrgh—has nevier proved its claim against the bankrupt act, and the General Orders in Bankruptcy presented by the Supreme Court of the United States. It is therefore clear that it has no right to present this petition. On this ground alone th£ exceptions are sustained and the petition dismissed.

of the First National Bank of

jawrenceburg, upon which this railroad corporation was adjudged bankrupt, and under which, at the first meeting of creditors, these gentlemen were appointed assignees, and have been duly qualified as such.

It is proper to notice some other proceedings, instituted in a State Court, affecting the interests of the corporation. In October, 1870, a bill was filed by A. R. Forsythe and others against the corporation, in the Marion Civil Circuit Court, proceeding upon a statute of the State of Indiana, authorizing the appointment of receivers to take charge of corporations in cases where they are found to be insolvent or in imminent danger of insolvency, upon the following grounds which are charged in tbe bill, and wbieh no doubt constituted the basis of tbe action of that court: That the corporation was falling into debt at the rate at least of $250,000 per annum, that for the six months ending on the 31st day of July, 1870, its gross expenses exceeded its gross earnings §123,430 that a large amount of his commercial paper then owing to it was past due, unpaid, and under protest, and that from time to time afT periods soon to arrive other paper for large sums of money would continue to fall due, and that the company, under its corporate management, was unable to pay the same that there was then due and unpaid $120,000 of interest on its bonded debt that for the want of available means, a great part of its last month's pay rolls, amounting to about $50,000, was unpaid and in arrears that for some time before filing the bill the company had been able to take care of its indebtedness, as it matured, by the aid of individual indorsements, but that the persons who had furnished these accommodations were unwilling ionger to do so, and that it was, therefore, impossible for it to obtain such endorsers as would enable it to manage and. carry its indebtedness. It was charged that its commercial credit was gone.

of hef* touch There are those

who are thus happy because they cannot help it—no misfortunes dampen their sweet smiles, and they diffuse a cheerful glow around them as they pursue the erven tenor of their way. They ha\e the secret of contentment, whose value is far above the philosopher's stone for without seeking the ba»er exchange of gold, whieh may buy some sorts of pleasure, they convert everything they touch into joy. What their condition is makes no difference. They may be rich or poor, high or low, admired or forsaken by the fickle world but the sparkling fountain of happiness bubbles up in their hearts, and makes them radiantly beautiful. Though they live in a log caben, they makeit shine with a lustre that kings and queens may covet, and they make wealth a fountain of blessings to tbe children of poverty.

To those who are Bowed Down by Nervous Debility, and despair of ever recovering the vigor and mien of manhood we earnestly recommend Dr. Walker's California Viuegar Bitters. Before they have finished the first bottle^ they will feel the restorative principle at work in every portion of their broken-down systems and hope will spring up in their hearts. No case of Dyspepsia, Biliousness, Intermittent Fever, Rheumatism, Gout or Kidney disease, can Resist this unequaled vegetable tonic which is unpolluted by any distilled or fermented liquor. 8dw4w

NEWSPAPERS.

THE NEW YORK TBIBUAE

it* FOR 187S.

The consolidation of Italy, so long fragmentary and Impotent, Into one powerful State, with Rome as its oapital the humiliation oi France through a series of crushing defeats, ending with the siege and capitulation of her roud aud gay metropolis the expulsion of the

Jourbous from the Spanish throne, aua the substitution lor them oi" a scion of the most liberal among royal houses the virtual abi-orp-tlon «f the kingdoms of Saxony, Wurttemberg, Bavaria, with Baden, Hesse, the flanse Towns, &c., under the headsnip of Prussia, into the triumphant and powerful empire of Germany and the arming of Russia to reassert her preponderance In the councils of Europe, or to prosecute her often postponed but never relinquished designs on the gieat city founded byConstautine and the vast butdecajiiigai.d anarchical dominion of the Sultan, all combine to invest with profound interest the verchanging bases of our tidii.gs fiom the Old World. THE TRIBUNE, tnrough tiuste correspondents stationed at all points in Eutope where great movements are in progress or imminent, aims to present a complete and instructive panorama of events on that i.tinent, and to mirror the prolongt-d struggle between middle-aged Feudalism and Eei ifsiasticlsio on the one hand and Nineteenth ntury skepticism and eeculailsm on the other. Recognizing a Li vine Piovidence in all that proceeds and is, it looks hopefu ly on tbe great conflict as destined (like our own recent convulsion) to evolve from snife, disaster, and se luing chaos, a fairer future for the toiling masses of mankind.

In our own country, a war upon corruption and rascality in office has been inauguiated in our city, whereuy the government of our State has been revolutionized through an initial triumph of reform which surpasses the most sanguine anticipations. It is morally certain that the movement thus inaugurated cannot. In Its progre s, be circuinscrib to any party, bat that its purifying Influence is destined to be felt In every part of tne Union, rebuking venality, exposing robbery, wresting power from politicians by ade, and confiding It in those worthiest anu fitte to wield it. To this beneficent and vitally needed Relorm, The Tribune will devote its best energies, regardless of personal interests or party predilections, esteeming tbe choice of honest and faithful men to office aacl all New Departures the most essential and auspicious.

The virtual surrender by tbe Democratic party of its hostility to Equal Rights regardless of color hasdivested our current politics of half theirfbygone intensity. However parties may henceforth rise or tail, It is clear that the fundamental principles which have hitherto honorably distinguished the Republicans are henceforth to be regarded as practically accepted bt the whole country. The right ol every man to his own limbs and sinews—the equality of all citizens before the law—the inability of a State to enslave any portion of its people—tbe drty of tbe Union to guarantee to every citizen the full enjoyment of his liberty until he forfeits it by crime—such are the broad and firm foundations of our National edifice and palsied be the hand that seeks to displace them! Though not .vet twenty years old, the Republican party has completed the noble fabric of Emancipation, and may fairly invoke thereon the 'sternest, judgment of Man and the benignant smile of God.

Henceforth the mi sion of our Republic is one of Peaceful Progress. To protect the week and the humble from violence and oppression—to extend the boundaries and diffuse the blessings oi Civilization—to stimulate Irgenuityto the production of new inventions for economizing Labor and thus enlarging Production—to draw rearer to each other the producers of Food and Fabrics, of Grains and Metals, and thus enhance the gains of industry by reducing the cost ol transportation and exchanges between larmers and artisans—such is tbe inspiring task to which this Nation now addresses itself, and by wnich it would fain contribute to the progrefS, enlightenment and happinessof our race. To this great and good work, T) Tribune contributes its zealous, persistent ett«rts.

Agriculture will continue to be more especially elucidated in its Weekly and Semi-Week-ly editions, to which some of tbe ablest and most successful tillers of the soil will contribute. No farmer who sells 8300 worth of produce per annum can afford to do without our Market Reports, er others equally lucid and mprehenslve. If he should read nothing else but what relates to his own .calling and its rewards, we believe that no farmer wno can read at all can afford to do without such a journal as The Tribune. And we aspire to make it equally valuable to those engage in other dspartments ot Productive Labor. We spend more and more money on our columns tach year, as our countrymen's generous pationtige enables us to do: and we aie resolved that our issues of former years shall be exceeded in varied excellence and interest by those of 1872. Friends in every State! help us to make our journal better and better, by sending in your subscriptions and Increasing your Clubs for the year just before us!
