Tho only way in which the money could bo placed boyoud tho control of Congressmen wag to draw it and covor it back iuto tho Trens- ury, snd this is what was demoauded of Mesars, Bhorman and Morton, Bonator Bhornian at last ylelded to the domand, but Bonator Morton atill clung to his position, Ifo soomod to think that his word, which he pledged nover to draw the money, ought to sufico, o wna distinotly told that it would mnot. Rofus- ing to pay tho money over, he was olassed among those who had drawn thelr back-pay. Whon tho campaign was opened in ©Obilo, Benator Morton was announced to Bponk at sovoral placos, Oloveland among othors, Both the Leader and tho Herald of that oity intimatod unnistakably that he would notbLe welsome with tho reputation of a salary-grabbor.

The samo quea- tion is involved in & case befors tho Supromo Caurt of the United Btates, on appesl from tho Supromo Courl of Minnosol ——— THE FORCE OF PUBLIC OPINION. Ono of tho most encouraging eigna of the timos is to bo'found in Benator Morton’s lettor to tho Becrotary of the Sonate, directing tho pay- ment into the United Statos Troasury of Lis sharo of the Congrossional bsok-pay. Thore aro thoso who will say that tho action comos too Into ; that it ie a doath-bod ropontance ; that it jn tho work of a domagogue, anxious to conciliate popular gontimont for solfish, porsonal, and partisan purposcs. All this may bo go, or it mvfl not bo eo; but it has, In eithor oveY no bosring on the loading and NYst importent foatoro of tho caso. The re of Benator Morton's back-psy ot this fimo 18 tho most convineing evidonoo that could bo farnshied that public opinion in this country still 0Z/rclaes w11 ke farea to which it io entitled in #popular form of govornment. An fnquiry iato the mo- tives whioh prompted Senator Mfirton in this mattor Ia nob portinent. Thoyasy have boon good or ti6y may hiavo boon bal ; but tho action itgolf waa 8 good ono, and the diract result of o poraistent’ domand on 40 part of tho paople. As puch it is 5 pointed illustration of tho power of tho pooplo to diroct tho conduot of tholr pub- Mo sorvants, whenover they unito without regard to party or faction upon any mattor of publio ‘coneern. 5 Probably no other caso could have attostod tho forco of publio opinion so cloarly s that of Bonator Morton. His position botors tho country and hig power in his own party wonld have cunbled him to resist this forco, porhaps, with grontor success thin any other public moan, To ovidontly relied upon this to carry him through, It hus now boon sbout six monihy gince the Salary bill pussod. As soon as ity fonturea wore understood by tho poople thore bogan & goneral and grow- ng denunciation, which gathored force as it progrossed. First csno tho condomnation of those who had advocated and votod for tho monsuro, Then the senso of public outrago bo- came g0 graat thatall those who participated in prospocts of popular outbroaks are scrious enough to havo rondored & spocial moeting of tho Cabinot Couucil nocossary. This distross haa direoted attontion to tho tariff duties on grain which tend to lucreaso its acareity, and it is pro- posed that they be susponded, and all cercals al- towad to onter France froo. If thisstop i ta- ¥on, it will be s good toxt for advooating & por- pauont froo trado in thove articles, , . The Convention of Wiacopain Grangers at Watertown has adfourncd.

Thero wus & universal demand that ali Bonator Morton has novor done the country a greator sorvico. Thesum of monoy thus paid over to tho United States Treasury - is insignifl- cant, tho wholo snlary-grabbing offalr i un- not probablo that tho “ now Stata" movement will mako much hondway for soms timo to como, e, G00DS AT THE EXPOBITION, ~ The Indianapolis Journal cslls atiention to the objcotlons of a manufacturing company of that State to oxhibiting ita goods at tho Exposi- tlon shortly to come off in that olty, aud It might bo well for tho manngers of the Obleago Exposi- tion to natica the chinracter of thoso objections, and, porhaps, tako steps to obviate thom. The company doclinlng to sond sny of its manutac- tures to Indianapolia fs tho Cotton and Woolon Manufacturing Company of Now Albany. This Compauy makes etaple goods, such o8 jonva, ongsimoros, yorns, cotton warps, and huuvy: slootings, Thoy make goods spocially adaptod to the market’ they supply. Thoy sny that the practice is mow universal for oxhibitors to got up s spoclal make of' goods for thoso oxhibitions and prosont them in compotition for promiums. OF courso this fancy production earries off the honors, though tho Company nover makes auy oloth of that dosoription for salo. Tho Now Albany Gompany say, it they sond oaes of their rogulsr averago goods, roprogonting tho line of tholr businoss, thoy stand tho chanco of popular dlsgraco by having thom oxhibited alongaide of tho goods that hnve boon mado oxprossly for ex- hibition and to carry off tho, premium. Thoy sny that, in this way, tho sctual state of the manufactares s misroprosonted; because what those oxpositlons ought to show is the lino of gooda sctually produced for salo in tho Btate, aud not the fino things that can be produced for show, and sre nevor produced for salo. Thoro is much of forco and truth in this matter. An oxhibition of the articles which our manufacturers actuslly produce for sslo would have far moro interest than @ more display of goods got up at specisl cost for displsy. Thia I8 espocially true in cotton snd ° woolen goods, ond olsoin all kinds of loathor manufacturcs, It ‘may be woll for tho Commjssioners of tho Ghica~ go Exposltion to offer spocial inducements to havo a liboral display of all kinds of manufao- tures of which tho oxhibitors are prepared to furnish, in any quantity, in tho regular line of tholr trado. In this way tho Exposition wonld bo an actual - exhibition of actual - productfons, and not & moro show of gooda mado eipeoially important, ns compared with this ocan- did scknowlodgment that no manm, whatover his position or influonce may bo, can offord to dofy public sontiment in this country. Thoro is hope in this for o romedy for all tho political abuses of tho day. It is o guaranty for tho maintenance of our popular form of governmont. It affords o promiso that noither porsonal nor party influonco can por- maonently hold tho poople down, wunless the peoplo themsolsea shall bocomo hopolossly cor- rupt, and, thoroforo, In no condition to dovelop and oxerelso the force of o heaithful public opinion. It is tho best argumont thut has of- fored 1tsolf ngniost the probability of sny ‘ottempt ot - *‘Ceearlsm,” It is a warning to all politiclans of the Butlor gchool, and all military statesmon of the Grant calibre. No mon nor set of mon to- duy occupy positions in which thoy can afford to dofy publio opinion. Bailroads and monopo~ lists must tako notico a8 woll ns sulary-grabbors aud bold political guerrillas, Publio mon may mnko mistakes, as Mr, Morton didin thisIn- stanca, butthe soonor thoy acknowledge thom and corroct thom, ns faras in their power lios, the better it will bo for their intorests. In pri- wvate lifo, o falso cstimato of tho valuo sud forco of public opivion may somotimes drive mon to do foolish things. In public lif, hoswover, publlo opinion is not suscoptible to contortion or misapprehension, and, o long 58 its tonois paro, thoro is & hope forour political condition far beyond tho ephemoral ox~ istonco of our prosont partics. Mr. Morton's sorvico in the present mstanco conslats ehiofly in bringing this faot conspicuously beforo the pooplo. , RAILREOAD BUSINESS T0 CHICAGO. Tnilroad managera nre just now ongrossed in finding meana to movo tho freight offered thom. Nevor boforo Les thoro beon such » domand for cars, Aud it will bo noticed that the loaded oncs aro bound to Chicago. The prediction of 'tho cronkors is not realized. Businoss fs not boing divertod to rival cities. For a briof intervala butter inapaction did give Milwaukeo a fow hun- dred thousand bushels of grain that should have beon marketed horo. The Illinois Contral Rail- rond war travsforring largo quantities of Iowa grain nna tho Westorn Union Railroad into Mil- wauteo. That diversion lna coased, and ovory co+-load of grain tributary o the Illinois Contral & now brought into Chicago. To this influx of business thore is no exception among Westorn raiironds. On the working-day precoding tho great fire, 577 loaded cars wero - brought iuto this city over the Galona Division of tha Chicago & Northwostorn Railwsy. It was s unprocedented day's record, and comained un- appronchod untit Baturday last, when 647 londed cary entered Chicago via the Galena Division. Betwoen Baturday mornizg and tho following Monduy morning tho Chiengo & Northwestorn Railway rocoived at and forwarded from this stalion 1,268 losded cars,—tho largost day's Lusiness ever dono by a Chicago railrond. Far the eight working-days from the 16th to the 24th instant, inclusivo, this Company rocolved ot and forwarded from Chicago o total of 7,457 loadod cars, In thie connection it may bo intoresting to stato that tho officors aro not in roceipt of any complaints respocting tho oporation of tho preg- ent tariff, and have, furthormore, tho nssurance of tho Railrond Commisslonors that no reports of dissatisfaction with tholr tariff Liavo boon ro- ooived,ub Bpringfleld,. Tu avery direction thera is an cager dispasition on tho part of producors to ship at provailing rales, and, with a fow excoptions, thero is now loas actusl complaint against the Transportation Companion than o any timo sluce the Insugura- tion of the antt-railroad movement., The orop i ‘bountiful aud of oxcellont quality, condtioing to tho good-humor and profit alike of tho pro- ducor and carrior, ——— The Louisville Courier-Journal roports that tho ' now Btate ™ movoment, of which some da- seription hag boen givon in these columns, is not likely ta bo rocolvod with much favor in Westorn Qongrosamon shoald refund tholr back-pay, updor the penalty of politioa! disfranchisomont.

This displacemont waa altogother unaccountable, 58 moro than hnlf of tho wholo train had passed over tho switch boforo it ocourred. It is shown that the switoh must have been displaced in some mystorious manner aftor the (rst sovootoon conches had passed, as it was not demaged in any wag, though it would have boen if thero had boon no displacoment, Tho rate of spood, it was also digcoverod, was thirty-soven milea an hour while passing the station. Formorly there was & law in Eugland roquiring all trains to come down to a spood of soventoon miles an hour while pass- jug » station. This law was abandoned on aoe count of the confidenco placed in the systom of locking switchos by signals. Tho accldent at~ tests tho danger of too groat a dependenco on signaly, and the law for reducing spoed at all sta- tions will probably bo revived Gov. Noyes, the Ropublican candidate for re~ election in Ohio, pronounced the salary-grab a groat ard indefoneible fniquity in his Athens epocch. How can Gov. Noyes, then, reasonably consont toxayo any of tho galary-grabbing Con- gres3MON 60Muiato hig Btato to tako part in the campaign ?

How can salary-grabbing Congrossmon contributo to Republican succosa in Xowa. oxcopt by staying at Liome and holding their penco? Tho faot is, that the local politicians overywhere iu tho West wharo an cleotion ia to bo hold would rather go withont the usual stump-speeches than to have ‘thom from mon who aro implicated in the grab. Among the mogt vigorous, and hard-working, and popnlar, csmpaignors in past times have boen gontlomon living in Ilinois. From .present indications, nono of theso who aro salary-grabbers will be naked to take an notive part in this yoar's cam- paign in Ohio, Iowa, or Wisconsin, Wherevor they go, thoir bad famo precodes them, S———— Tho Dotroit Post tolls the farmers of the West that thoy can sottlo the transportation question by producing mothing to transport. In other words, that thoy should produce only o much grain and provieions a8 thoy can find sale for among their neighbors, Having nothing to soll to anybody, and nothing to exchange for articlos which they do not produce, thoy can afford to bo sublimely indifferent as to what rates tho Railrand Qompanios may charge for transportation. The Post doos not add, 88 it might have dono, that, thero boing nothing to send from the farm, and, of coursio, nothing to be recelved at the farm, tho farmors could disponso with railrosds alto- gother, It ia but proper to say that this advice of the Post is given under the plea of building up & homo market by producing what that homoe marlket ealls for, and no moro, . -NOT!
