IT is gratifying to notice that the Italian Ministry is waking up to the necessities of the hour. Reform is now the watchword. It is proposed abolish the issue of forced paper currency.extend the right of sufferag and make education compulsory. Rome will at last be cleaned of the persistent aud picturesque pauper.
OUR city and county officers should be selpcted from the very best men in our midst. It is vastly more important to the people of Vigo county that their county officers should be honest and capable men than that the officets of the National Government should good ones. A $10 ''steal" by a county officer takes more out of the pockets of every citizen of Vigo county than a $10,000 defalcation by a government officer. While it behooves us as good citizsns to do our best to secure good men for National places, it is a matter of vital interest that we should select the best possible forthe administration of our local governmental affairs.

Chicago, Apl. 4-In the case of Pahlman Rush & Co. this morning Herman Beeker the former store-keep er for the firm who returned from Canada recently testified that he had been cognizant of frauds committed by them that he had allowed such frauds the usual method pursbed was to use stamps a second time.
The distillery was sometimes run beyond its taxed capacity and 4he surplus was put on the

out tax. He produced a note of $i,«00 which he testified was given him Jn return, for allowing tbese frauds. Ernst Mattern testified that while the storekeeper for Pahlman, Bush & Co., he had winked at frauds, and during 'ess than a year had received $2,o00 from the firm as compensation therefor The frauds JJQinmltted, were in running the distillery beyond its taxed capacity and using stamps thesecond time.

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.
RedueUou oi' Mis (Jl urical Force In Hit? iJepsrimeDt.
THE RETURN OF THE BKciJSMr MARSH.
Tapija! Gossip-
om our regular Washington Corrspondentt Washington, March 25. 1873. Not only our political, and social, but even our religious life b®3 been so highly spiced with sensation that existence seems tame and common place without a daily increase of this pungent condiment. Bismarck, in a recent invective against the German press, said "the newspapers are consumed with a thirst for important news," and yet, the press that he denounced, cowering under a censorship, would be considered staid and hackneyed in comparison with ours, which daily runs amuck amid reputations, aud seldom (alas for the reputations and institutions!) strikes amiss. But sensations are subject to the laws of physics aud oieta physics, when overstrung, they recoil. TheBe!kn?.p sensation was preceeded by a period of dullness,and now, since it is spent, we have nothing in politics or legislation, only a dismal platitude of unpromising investigation. Congress has resolved itself into detective associations,and, with the assistance of the reporters of the various papers, (one of whom knows more thau an average C011-
eressional committee) are prospect- and appointed by the Secretary of & TIT« ia fo/l itot
ing in the various Govemmsnt offices for bonanzas of corruption. It is now admitted that nothing will be found that will at all compare with the discovery in the War Department. Investigation will soon nave spent its force, and since Congress is down with an epidemic of influenza, and consequently unable to do much talking, we may expect some hard pan legislation.
There is much distress in this city occasioned by the suspension of work in the Bureau of Engraving and Printing. Nearly fourteen hundred clerks aud operatives, the larger portion of them, females, without relatives or permanent^ home, in VVashington, have been without employment and without pay for more than a month, because of a deficiency in the appropriation. Congress has been urged most earnestly to pass an appropriation bill for temporary relief, but has so far been deaf to all entreaties, and it is now very generally beleived that this Bureau will be finally suspended, and that silver will take the place of the paper fractional currency. Saould tnis substitution be effected, it will result in tbe abolition of auotner very important division of the Treasury Department, namely the redemption Bureau. The quantity of mutilated currency which has beeu daily re ceived in this Bureau to be counted, destroyed, and returned in new notes, has given' employment to-ne»rly~four hundred female counters. Since th^ suspension of tbe Bureau of engravr ing and printing, there has been a remarkable decrease in the multilated notes returned lor redemplion, and tho counters have been placed upon half-timp bnt. feince their pay. hasnot been reduced this does not annoy them, though th«y are of course, not cleased with the prospect of final auspenston, which, it is anticipated, will take place at the end of the present fiscal year ou July the first.
It is believed that both political patties in Congress, will approve the substitution of silver for paper fractional currency. The prets in this city opposed it, of course, but rather in the interest of the employes of the respective bureaux, than of the peo pie.
Washington is almost entirely de-
S.ardly
endent for a prosperity that has been affected by the hard times, upon the monthly disburse ments to Government employee, and, any policy that threatens to reduce the number of these or to reduce their pay, ia opposed by the local papers, both Republican and Democratic.
AN EXILE RETURNED.'
The notorious witness, Marsh, ar' rived in this city to-day, and is stopping with Mrs. Marsh, at the Arling ton Hotel. There is now nothing to prevent the successful impeachment of the ex-Secretary, aud proceedings will most likely be commenced early next week. Ex-Senator Matt, Car psnter is most prominent among tbe counsel retained by Gen. Belknap Mr. Carpenter is promineutly lo cated in Washington, and his shin gle with the simple words, ''Matt. Carpenter, Attorney at Law," is swung in front of a modeit secondstory office, on the corner of aud Twelfth streets. He has already a very large practice in both the District and U. S. Supreme Courts. He is now engaged in tbe defense of Altman, accused of stealing $40,000 from tbe U. S. Treasury but, does it not seem that the distinguished ex-Sena tor is in a fair way to establish for himself a uuique specialty in legal practice? It will be remembered that he was very prominent in the Johnson impeachment trial.
IThe late Secretary of War. apd his I wife lead a very secluded life, and none save their most intimate friends are able to see them. The pending impeachment is the cause of the most intense anxiety to them, and they are in daily consultation with their, lawyers. Mrs. Belknap is deeply affiiQted through the loss of her eldest sister, Mrs. Bowman, of Harrodsburg,.Kentucky, who died a few days ago. Mrs. Belknap denies that she ever received a cent of money from George H. Pendleton in payment for services in securing or helpring to secure the payment of the Kentucky Central Railroad claim but, from the testimony of Gen. *B. F. Butler, given yesterday before the committee, aud from the shape of investigations now pending, it appeara quite probable that Mr. Pendleton will still be further involved in this bad business.
A committee is investigating the charnes against Senator Spencer, of Alabama, who, it is said, secured ms election through bribery and corruption, Senators Bogy, of Missouri, and Ransom, of North Carohnat-are under the same dark imputation. Hayes, of Alabama, and Coiipver, of Florida, are charged with selling cadetships. The reputation of •neither party, as a party, crfh suffer much from these investigations crimes belong to iudividua 1 'a.nd to human nature, trad are notthe result of fealty to any political ,theory or sentiment.
.c
Sherman arrived here this morning, I ftt 'low fl®u?cs.
and called upon the President previous to tbe Cabinet meetiog. The General was also at the War Department, and had a private consultation with Secretary Taft. The Secretrry thinks Gon. Sberman should resume his station here, and to tbo fullest extent have charge of the ordinary business belonging to his office. The consultation to day, was brief.
MEXICO.
Tbe American Minister to Mexico will receive instructions from the Government to use his good offices in the preservatcou of peace in that country.

Milward, Lexington, Keutuct-y David Hawker, Willot Junction, Iowa. THE COMMITTEE ON MILITARY AFFAIRS have agreed upon Representative Banning'" bill, with some amendments, for the reorganisation of the army. It does not reduce the present effective force of the army, but it reduces the tnfantry regiments from 25 to 20, aud calvary from 10 to 8. In the consolida tionof tbe quartermaster and Commissary Departments, it fixes the pay of tbe first sergeiant's at $40 per month, and makes the headquarters of the general of the army at Washington in time of peace, ana provides tuat he may act as Secretary of War ih the absence of tbe Secretary of temporary vacancy in the office. It provides that Buttlers and post* traders shall bn first elected by a council of the administration and approved by the department commander, the gen'eral of tho army,
War. It is a reduction oi about 200 .officers. Tbe revolution in Mexico was the principle subject of conversation
AT THE CABINET "MEETIJFG
to-day, the attention of the Cabinet being brought thereto by application o.f tue Mexican authorities who are endeavoring to suppress it. There was some consideration given bv the Cabinet to an application from officers of the army, stationed at Fort Sill and the administrative council of that post for retention there of Evans, the posttrader. The subject was not referred to the Secretary of War.
