A Record that Does Honor to the Hem-1 ocratle Party and lbs Country. 1 From th Washington Telegram. What has the nrcsent House of Representatives done fur the country? The organs of the administration wbicn are edited by tne government o.lunrtiuinir thn rinY llpnnliliran nol- ticians which have not been locked up in the penitentiaries; the convw tions of ofliciiholdcra whose only pur pose in life is to keep their hold upon the pubho treasury, ana one or iwo newsnaners like the New York Trib une, which are on the fence with pne leg down on. the Republican side, solemnly assure us that it has done nothing. Thev tell us that the House has forfeited public confidence and proved by its deeds that tue majority in it at the next election is to he swept away, and tho benches they occupy filled by men "who were true to the country in its hour of peril," and who when the hour of peril passed robbed it upon the right hand and upon the lelt : who turned every one 01 us ao- partments into a den of infamy; nanrl it hinrhoBr. nffirf fnr thfi nnrnose of making money ; plunged the whole country into financial panic, irom which it has not yet recovered ; turn ed, by its vicious legislation, millions of men into the streets to beg ; filled the workbouses aim jaus, ana broucrht discrrace and shanio upon the republican institutions at home and abroad. The men who did all this, so-called independent journals like the Tribuns are askinff the country to again place in power and to give them again the opportunity to con tinue their work of destruction and dmc the nation to iiill lower denths of financial and political ruin. Let ns see what tho present iiouso uas and has not not done: 1. It has not elected a Speaker like Schuyler Colfax, who used his high office to enrich himself; who was hritind find linnrrllt lw flVPTV band of adventurers who came to ' Washing ton during his terra ot omce ; wuo was caucht in the Credit Mobilier in iquity ; who was detected in station ery frauds to the uouse ana exposeu as a broker receiving regular commis sions from a New ork paper estab lishment. It has not elected a Speak er like James G. Blaine, who used his position to influence legislation in fnvorof railroad subsidies, who ac cepted the agency of a firearms com pany, who sold rulings ana legisla tion for so much cash down in the shape of railroad bonds. IL Smco it mot last uecemDcr it rot been devisini? wavs and means, day after day, to get money out of tho treasury. On the contrary, it has cut down tho extravagant, esti mates of the department, and it the Senate will not pass its ows, lias re 4 - duced the running expenses oi me government nearly lorty millions of dollars per annum, insteaa oi man incr offices for tho creatures of the ad ministration, creating omcen ior men to live in idleness at the expense of the p. . t sorely taxed people, it nas aDonsueu every office that was not absolutely necessary, and, so far as it could do so, itopped the leak in tue puonc treas nrv. 3. It has not legislated a ireea man's bank into existenco and placed it in the power ct a lot of men to steal the earnings and savings of the poor colored men ot the ooutn, amounting t millions ot dollars. On the con trary, it has taken the robbers and awind prs who did that infamous worn by the throat, exposed their rascality, and directed the officers of the gov ernment to send their names before the grand juries. 4. It has gone into President Grant's cabinet and dragged out of it one of his trusted advisers, who abus ed his high place, who robbed the dead veterans of the war. who aided in cheating the living soldiers on the nlains: who demanded money for v r ' . . i , ery appointment ne maae, anu Drought him to trial lor his many crimes. 5. It has shown how the funds of the so-called department ot justice have been used tor tne purpose oi .... . - f controling elections in the South and North: how the . i'resident put his hand into the publio treasury and took out money to aid in his re-elec tion. It has exposed, tne villainy oi Williams, the rascality ot myenport, and the general corruption of that entire branch of the public service. C. It has stretched its hand across the water to London, and saved the honor of the country by collaring the minister and embassador extraordina ry, who was using his influence as our representative to "ball" a worthless minini stock and rob the English people. It compelled the President to accept his resignation, and send 11. C. Schenck into an obscurity from which he will never again come. 7. It has shattered the District of Colombia rin? into a thousand atoms: indicted Babcock for complicity with safe bnnrlars, made I larnutrton a f ugi tive from justice, and exposed the rot tenness and corruption ot the r-rescnt comissioners. 8. It has instituted a risrid scruti ny into the management of tno Navy Department, exposed the corrupt op erations of the Cattcls and other plunderers, and before tho investiga tion closes will expose whatever is rotten and corrupt in the service. 9. It has laid bare tho strawbid system in tho Post Office Department, and proved that the country has been annually robbed of hundreds and thousands of dollars for carrying let ters that were never written, over routes that never had an existence 10. It has exposed tho infamios of the Indian Ring shown, how tho In. tans are" driven on the war path that army contractors may beenriched and the treasury bled. 11. It has matured a tariff bill which, if the Senate would agree to it, would do more to start our idlo mills and furnaces and factories and restore prosperity to all classes than any measure which could be devised. 12. It has taken the control of our ndian affairs out of the hands of the thieves who had charge of them so ong and placed them whore they be- onged in the War Department. It has reorganized tho army and closed thousand avenues ot fraud and cor ruption of every decription. 1 beso are soino of tho rascalities and acts of corruption tho present louse of has exposed, tho reforms it has instituted: the bad men it has punished; the great service it has done lor the country. Done nothing? No louso lor a quarter ot a century nas done one-tenth as much or deserves better at the hands of tho people HISTORY OP THE NEW VANAIi UINU. YORK How it Was Effectually Sinaahed by Our Uncle SainmyTbe Sating Ef fected to the State. The canal ring of tho State of Now York was a much older organization than the Tweed ring. Its career was more prolonged, and tho territory it covered was larger, though its opera tions were not ot such magnitude. Nevertheless, it was an organization more powerful for evil in tho politics of the State. It was a cliquo of con tractors, who by means of fraudulent devices in contracts for repairs, etc., by false measurements, estimates aud aulits' plundered the canals of their nnmonse revenues. Jo secure con federates, the rinr joined itself to both parties, nominated, where it could, all canal officers, and took caro to have a sufficient proportion ot its friends in the Legislature, and also to have the canal appropriation committee made up ot its tools, inis secret combina tion, which always avoided publicity and display, had an iinmenso influence in the politics of tho Stato, and espec ially in the Democratic party, and dated back many years in history. It was this powerful organization wmcu . . , " , . Mr. Tilden conceived it to bo his first duty to attack on taking tho gover nor's chair. In his first annual nies sage to tho Legislature ho asked for the passago of laws facilitating the punishment of official defaulters and peculators, which had been prepared bv himself and Charles O'Uonor. While the public understood that these bad b eu framed especially to enable certain suits to be brought against tho Tweed ring, they did not know that they wero framed, while in tended to cover all such cases, with especial reference to .the canal ring, which Governor lilden was getting ready to expose. In this mcssago he also outlined his policy of administra tive reform which lie nas sicauuy au hered to since. Meanwhile ho was collecting his proofs, and on tho 18th of March. 1875. addressed to the Leg islature a lonir and able message, de- snribinir in detail the methods of fraud practiced for many years upon 0 the canals, showing tho extent to which tho robberies of tho ring had run the State in debt, and asking an investigation. A commission was ap nointed. headed bv John liigelow. I . . . . 1 - - C A I. which devoted tao remainder oi me vear to tho investigation, and disclos ed astounding frauds. So much of the fraud had been accomplished through acts of the Legislature and awards of Boards, that tho work of obtaining judicial proof was difficult almost beyond belief, but the commis sion, by dint of great industry and skill, succeeded in unearthing and proving great thefts, ihe tacts iney obtained were reported to Gov. Til den as soon as they could be got into proper form and were by him at once transmitted to the attorney goncral, with instructions to bring suit. These suits are now pending in the courts, and if successful, will restore large sums to the treasury of the State. This is only a part, however, of the results achieved. Gov. Tildcn's dis closures not only destroyed forever the political influence of the ring, but put an immediate stop to its fraud u Ient nracticts. and the triumph of his reform ticket at the fall election of 1875 put the canals under the charge of honest men. The reform in the management of the canals is com plete; the work of punishing the thieves goes on as fast as the courts can reach it. The result of Gov. Tildcn's aotion was seeu at once in the appropriations for that year, as well as elsewhere. Notwithstanding his recoramonda tioa for retrenchment in his annual message, the appropriation hill for or dinary repairs, as it passed the New ior canal committee ot tho Senate, was noarly as large as in 1874. The bill for extraordinary repairs, or new work, proinisod also to ho nearly as arge as that ot ls74, appropriating nearly $2,000,000. At about this time the special message on tho ca nals was sent in. The result was that the appropriation for ordiuary repairs was reduoed $1:00,000 below the year fore, and counting the provision niado tor deficiencies, 41o,0J0, and the bal- anco was vetoed by tne Uovornor. Other appropriations were also vetoed by the Governor, amounting to $100, 000, tho whole reduction being $2, 400,000. " Some notion of the extent of the robberies of the cannl ring may be gathered from the statemont that while the total revenues of the canals ot the State tinco their construction had amounted, inoluding gains result ing from tho management ot tho sink ing funds, at tho olose of tho last fiscal year to $188,407,129, the total pay ments, including the cost ol construc tion, wore $107,003,357, leaving a de ficiency of $28,59G,228. This was tho premium paid by tho Stato of New York in taxes in 50 years to Bccure and 'encourage the uso of tho water ways, amounting to a subsidy each year of $500,000. Part of this was doubtless honest deficiency, but there is no reason to doubt that much of it was tho result of fraud. These wore tho totals ot tho cannl rovenuos and expenditures during 1875, the yoar in wbio Gov, Didon exposed tne ring : Reoelut l,002,0l ExiwiitlituriM I ' . . J . - i - . .1 ...

Inoluding these, the whole loss to the State during tho fiscal year ot 1875 was $1, 412,480. One ot the favorite devices tor fraud on tho canals was that ol building vertical wall where slope wall only was required,' the first kind . i ti, ueing ruucH iuoib u.puiimu. iu in vestigations ot tho canal commission showed that in six years the State had been robbed in Jthis way ot &1,3UU, 000. The commission, besides dis closing all tho roltennoss of existing canal management and destroying it. provod improper payments to tno - ... i amount of f3'J8,7o. They showed that the amount expended on now work on the canals in tho six years which thoir investigation oovorftd was $3.4 14,824, of which a good share) was undoubtedly fraudulent. They de tected, exposed and drove from his office tho republican auditor oi tue canal department, who had been car- rvin" on a brokerage business in tho obligations he was required by law to audit, and wos "shaving" thom to tho amount of hundreds of thousands ot dollars. Now all this is changed The canals ol New York ar managed under Gov. Tilden'a administration with tho samo strict business economy and honesty as if they were a privato enterpriso in pnvate hands, uov Tildens motto has always boon that tbo Government existed for the peo pie, not the people for the govern ment. Why not ItlakcThem out Tw in! Our cotemporaries of tho Republi can press, generally, are engaged in and atlemnt to show that Mr. Tilden is closely allied to William M. Tweed Considering the extent to which their efforts have already gouo, we wonder they are not extended a little further. Why not put it squarely that Tilden and Tweed are twin brothers, always united, even up to the present day, in all the schemes ot euner r ur inas mich as Tweed's whereabouts hav havs never been discovered since bis hospitable homo in Ludlow street, why nol say that iiidcn u a weed enlarged intellectually, and shrunk into smaller proportions physically. and that the present occupant of the office of Chief Executive of the State of New York is no other than tho veritable Boss himself, running for President nnder an assumed name t Considering that but for the instra mentality of Samuel J. Tilden, it is not likely that any of the suits, either C1V11 or Criminal, aamov itiuittiu -u, Tweed would ever have been success fully prosecuted, and that Mr. Tweed might to day have been one of our State Senators, the undertaking; of proving that lilden and Tweed are ooo mirht seem a little difficult ; but it could hardly bo more hopeless than the job in which our Republican co temporaries have engaged.

The letter is another illustration of the cowardice, time-serving, and ob- , ttiseness of a well-informed publio roan. Though ho has seen his party swept aside because of its offenses, though he has seen those ofllnses re peated, though he has seen tho men u-tin nnmmitted them escane tho tor- nients ot punishment, this man pre tends in tho name of God and good government to tako up the banner of bastard reform to lead to the purifica tion of which he and his have made necessary, a purification whose very first condition demands his and their obliteration from the further posaibif ity of misgovcrnment. Senator Sherman lays it down that no position taken by the Democratic- arty since 184G can be defended bc cre the country. He is mistaken. In 1847 tho Democracy expended only 53,$0I,DOO; in 1818 only $45, 227,000 ; making for the two years ot the Mexicau war about $39,000,000. This is only half as much (J194.118, 000)as tho Radical party expended in the single year of peace, 1874, That t is one thing at least, remarks the St. Louis J2pulliyin,lhe Democracy can defend before the country. The paper money of the United SiaUa has to be reoewed once in threo years.
