Craxoren, the Now Hamp- shire Implacabloe, in his testiniony before the Potren Committeo, proved to bo anything Lut a setisfactory witness for tho Democrata, It wos through bis revelations that they Lioped to implicate Gen. Noyzs n the mak. ing of promises 1 Florida in the namo and by the nuthority of Gov, avzs, ond they oven thought it possible that Cuanpren could be induced to admit that he, too, wont to Florida 08 tho trusted confidential sgent of the President that was to be, equipped with nuthority to offer bribea without atin?, In this they wero grievously disappointed. The testimony of Cuanprrn failed to show evon by implication that Gon, Noxes pro. fesaod to speak for anybody but himself, or prowmised that any influence save Lis own should be oxerted for tho benefit of tho Floridn convassing officors ; and tho witness, with all his dofective memary and uncertain roplies, npparently calculated to doprive the Republicans of any direct bouefit from his testimony, did not so much as Inainuate that e himself hod been in any manner author- ized to spesk for Gov. Haves. Ouaworxn, in short, did not pan out according to sur- face {ndicationw, ¥ DurLen's cowplots capture of the manage- ment of the Porrzs Committee on tho Dem- acratio sldo 18 mado noro and more evident as tho investigation progresses. He hay boldly proclalned his purposa to uncover a groat fraud in Lonisiana and Florida, and to prove that pledgesof protection and reward were mado to the Returning Board and can. - vassing offlcers by persons nssuming to speak for Gov. Hayea. He also intends to open up the octs of the Loulslaua Commission with a view to showing a corrupt combina. tion Letwoon the Commission and the Nicuorrs Government to freeso out Pacxarp oud moke thinge ensy for Nicuouts. The Democrats, bay. Ing surrendered tho control of the inves tigation, must now follow Burrea's luad, which hias unmistakably taken the diroction of the fmpeachment of the President. Bo fur, nothing has beon proved bLoyond the sssurances given by influential Republicans, speaking for themselves alome, that the ofticers who were firm in thely pertormhu of their duty should be protected from hstmy sud ruwarded for their sorvices by such ap. pointwents as the visiting Republicans should bo sble’ ta”secare for them! | Bub Byries will not stopat this kind of testi. wony { ' there will be other Axpxaépys forth, comiog to'make out the caso for jmpench- ment which the strabismal stateiman hag detormined shall be made out, 4 Considerable sttentlon is attractéd just uow to the numerous scandals'growing ont of the operations of Groves's Comuittes of Tuvestigation into everyfhiug and apything. Laxperty without number wero ewployed to ransuck the records and accounts of the various Departments and Bureaus for dam. wging developments, Thess fraud.hunting frocbooters undurstood that thoir busivess wii to nd sowmething crooked, aud that of Tation or orgunic law ance of stubility consequent stability of yalue, they were to be rewarded in proportlon to their pucoens. Bub therd was a hitch in the compensation busitess. Tho Democratie economy-shriokers of tho IHouso wers appal- led at the monstrous expenso necount of the Groven Committeo, nnd weros afraid to make sn appropriation in o ridiculons a ratio to tho results mocomplished. Henco Groven's experls were left unprovided for, ond have been driven to the necessity of selling to Democratic newspapers for what- ever they could get tho disclosures they wero in possession of. - In numergus instances tha disolosuros were spiced for’ the market, and related to mattars which never eama to the knowledge of tha Committee. The case of Dr. Linpenaax is in poiat. The Committes exceeded ita authority in Inenrring expendi- tures, nud fllegal davices aro being resoried to for tho payment of some of them,~such ns drafts upon 'the miscellaneous fund, os- tensibly for } fuel and oil," but in reality to pay somo of the more favorad experts. Thero is an excellant outlook for an investi- gation of Groven's investigators whioh will eclipss all the disclosures, ronl or bogus, sl leged to have beon modé ’by the Gommiltes itsolt. The Earopenn Congress has settled affairs in Eastern Euarope so far as Bulgaria Is con- cerned, and has erected that long-suffering COhristian provines into an'autonomous prin- cipality, with the Danube and the Baikeussa its northern and sonthernlimits. The claims of Borvin and Montenogro are -also in tho way of sottlemont. The only Slate that remains in doubt is Greece, and she ia elam- oting to havo a reorganization of Thes- asly and Epirus, and an extension her frontler so ns to embrace at loast a portion of hor anclont domin. fons, Thera nre good renaons why sho should expect consideration at the hands of the Congress. If Eugland had not opposed the advanco of the Greck army and advised tho Government to wait the issuc of tho war and tho deolsions of the Congress, Thessaly and Epirus would have boen incorporated in the Greelnn territory. The Theasnlian in- surgonts suspended hostilities upon the. solemn promiso of Englaud that their claims ag well as the claims of tho Greeks should bo admitted and acknowledgod by the Con- gress, The Athens correspondent of tho London Zimes intimates that tho heavy ox- pensos incurrod by Groace in military prepn- rutions, and the crowding of thousauds of fugitives upon her frontiors, have so un- sottled her finances that any disappointment a8 to an incrense of her territory wonld plunge hor into bankruptey and anarchy, and bring on a struggle between Greck nud Turk which would reopen tho whola Esstern question and perpetunte nsurrection and - renction, hopes of obtaining n portion of tholr anclont torritory, bocause it is for tho advantage of Eogland, Austria, France, sud Italy, if not of Germany, to offset the preponder- ance of Rusain in tho Eaat, as she has al- rendy crossed tho Danube and the Batkans, and is ralsing some of the Slavic provinces into independont nationalities. It would bo useless for England to oppose Slavism, for it has triumphed ; but she moy, to n cer- toin oxtent, emancipate it from Russian in- fluences by raising up Hollenlsm s o tival, and thns establishing a strong barrier to Rusalon progress. Tho prospectalook favor- The Grecks, again, have good able for Greece, - Franco and Italy are urg- ing ber claims, and Gormany does not op- poso them, While England manifestly would not care to take an netive part 'in forwarding tho Groek claim, ag it wonld mak an enemny of Turlkey, whom she would liko to have ns a future ally, it is evident enough that slio 1s quietly pusbing tho clalm by securing tho advocacy of the other Powors for it, Tho Dewocrats, under tho dictation of Toxt Ewixo, one of thoir own members of Congross, have made the following demand in their plaiform : ‘The gradual sabstitution of Unifed Stales legal- tender puper for National Dunk noles, and its per- manent ro-establishwent as the vole paper manay of tho country, made recelvable for all dues to tha dovernmont, and of equal tendor with coln, the amount of such lestes 10 be 80 regulated by legin- a8 to glyo tho peaple awsur- in tho volnmo of the currency, and This fs & demand for the passage of a law which would be unconstitutional, and would bo 8o daclared by the Unlted Btates Bupreme Court in tho first test-caga that should ba pre- sonted to that tribunal, fact any botter than Tox Ewivo, who ia the aathor of the resolution, and his knowledge is shared by every Democratio member from Ohilo and evory Domocratia lawyer who has ever given the subjoct any thonght, 1o uucertain slatemeut 50 far as Ewina is concerned, a3 the following bit of ‘history will show ¢ G No one knowa thiy This is During the late le;llon of Congross, Ev- N0, 8a 8 leading member of the Houso Fi. nanco Committeo, framed & bill for the cx- preas purposo of substituting United Blates ‘Iroaury notes for the outstanding Natiousl Bank notes, This bill mado the now lssue of Troasury notes receivable for all dues to the Government, including the customs du. tios, but did no$ maks tem legal-tender for pricate debts. 'The reason why. the proposed fusue of new notes was uok to be mads legal. tender was because tho Domocrats ju favor of rotiriug the bauk notes knew, in tho Jight of a former decision of the Bupreme Court, that their character as logal-tander could not be enforced. . The Bupromo Court has held that the nuthority to make Troasury notes a legal-tender was derived from the condition of war, and tho overpowering necessities of the Goveromoent incideut thereto, and that tho fssuo of such notes must be confined within the $400,000,000 limit fixed by Con- gross at the tuno Lbe war.powor authority was exertfsod. Mr. Ewina aud his assoclates kuew very well that avy aitempt to fssuo legal-tender Treasury notes In Umo of pro. found peace, and in excess of tho war issue of $400,000,000 of 'forced-loan psper, would be declaved unconstitutional, and they therefore refralned from introducing the legal-tender festure into their bill. - Yet these eamo persons doliberately conoeal this fact in their platform, and there make a de. mand which thoy did mot Jare iveorporate in & blll..This {s certsinly a very dishon.’ orablo and contemptibls order of deception. Mr, Ewiia's ‘Lill to wubstitute Treasurv notes for National Bank notes falled because it was demonstrafed \that guch notee, nod being legal-tender, would not be alle to .retain“{hely placa ip the ‘currency .t'%:u "The | with the votea which are legal-teuder, resuls' of ‘such new issue would be to give the present legal-tonder greegbacks & special value, just 88 gold has a special value during a suspension of epecle paymentd. :Tho legal-tindsr greenbacks would then glsap- pear from circulastion' just as gold. has disappenred; they' ‘would be . hparded and commapd & premium for the Jawful peyment of debts. Ewixa's uchemo, if ithad becomo & law, would bave resnlted inan enor- mous contrpetion of the currency, Instead of mearly $700,000,000 of paper woncy & now, thero would ouly bo 320,000,000 of -tribntary “ stumptail,” ns the legal-tonders wonld not cireulate. The National Hank notes now serve sl the purposes of the legal-tender green- backs, becanso they aro redecmable on de- mand fo legal.tonder; henco tha two eiron. Iato sido by side. A proposition was made to the Honso Commilteo which would have overcomo this objection to Ewixa's mensure, viz.: To make the now Treasury notes re. deemable in legnltender, the same 48 tho Dank notes now nre, and to retain in the United Blates Treasury as a redemption fund the differenco between the outstanding legal-tendera and tho constitutional limit ot $400,000,000. Bufatno time was it con- templated to moke n now issuo of lkpel-tena ders ns a substitnte for bauk-notos, hecause it was known by Ewivo and tho Democrats Ahiat thia could not bo done, Novertheless, Tox Ewixa is willing to go on deceiving stuch Oblo Democrats ns do not understand tho Taw, THE VANDERBILT RAILROAD FOLICY. The recent action of VANoprmmirT in se. curing possession of tho control of the transportation bnainess between the West and tho Enst hasboen already discnssed upou the theory that he will use this power not to extort froth the peoplo their substance, but o manngs tho transportation business for tho public good. ‘The old practico was to exact tho greatest sum of monoy for tho laast possible servico; to put the rates of transportation so high that prodnction was limited and in @ great mensuro profitlesa, Tho policy was to skin the country, nnd this led to a systom of railrond management that wns dishonest, profligate, and in the end runous, 8inco thon mors than one-balf the rnflroads of tho coun- try, computed by mileage, have bocomo bankrapt, the stock swept awny, and the conirol or ownorship transforrod to othor hnands, Tho rates for transportation hinve ‘beon revolutionized, Prices of ell commodi- ties have fallon in the world's markets, and the ratos of {ransporiation have fallen with them, Brendstuffs at the prosont prices in Liverpool would hardly pay the cost of transportation at the rates charged o fow years ago, The roduction of tho ratos of freights hns been a blessing to tho conntry. To it fesdno to large extont ounr ability to export breadstulfa aund provisions, and thos furnish the nation with the large ond incronsing surplus ovor our imporls with which wo are not only pay- ing our dobts, but " drawiog hither an amount of metallio currency uvprocodonted iu our bistory, and which is aiding tho Gov. ernment {a fund the uational dobt at as low o rato s 4 per cont, Any roturn to tho ratos of transportation of former days would {u- volve the ruin of the productive intoresta of tho country. It would amonut to confisca. tion aud spoliation. It would arrest produc- tion by rendering it impossible to sell what was produced, and by taking from the pec- plo the ability to scll the product of tholr own labor also take from them the means of bnying the product of other men's labor. It would paralyze indastry, and of necessity would deprive tho rallroads of their busi. ness. Undor tho reduced rates of trans- portation production Las vastly incrensed and tho tonnage of morchandise moved has become onormons, Despita tho roducticn of prices, and in fact as a consoquenco, tho mar- kets of tho world have beon drawn nearer, and to-day, as markots, Chicago and Livor- pool aro as noar, . if not noaror, than wero Chieago and New York under tho old rates of transportation, Chero aro two distinot policles, cither of which Vawxpesoir in bis present supromnoy may adopt, The one is an attempted roturn to tha old rates of froight, which may bo ox. plained ns requiring o man lhaving a bushel of graln for salo to sond two other bushels to oy the cont of transporting one to market. The othor policy is, that the greater the amount ot* merchandise frovsported tho groator tho profif, even if tho rate bo ro- duced, so that the railronds will ondeavor to transaot all the business possible, and from the nggregoto, at low mtes, draw n falr, lib. cral profit, thus compansating the corporn- tion while adding to the prosperity of the country, and enconrsging and promoting ad- ditionn! productions, to be in turn ndded to tho business of tho ronds, 1lr, Vanpreoinr Tins now the equivalent of four tracks from Chicngo to New York, fod ot nll polnts by rosds, He s in position to dictate {o tho other trunk Nnes, They ara ju no counditlon to compots with him, unless by going into bankruptey, aud it i3 not Lis policy that they should Lecome bankrupt. Ho wag forced by theso roads a few years ago into a pool by which rates waro computed Ly mileage from the West to tho seaboard cities, and not by the cost'of transportation. Ho ls now prepared to natne such terms as ho msy dictate, Will he dictate a general roturn' to Ligh rates, or will ho, recognizing the groat blessings ot olicap transportation, adopt that policy which will givo ench road fall employment to the extont of its capacity, aud thus enable all the ronds at low ratow, 2rom the incroase of their business, to reap profits? As thaore fs moro profit in tho transportation of 1,000 cors at $100 per car than in the transportation of 100 cara ot $200 per car, so the rallronds oy, with o largoly-increased busiuess, ex. changa a profitable tariff of lugh ratea for'n wore profitable tariff of low rates, ‘Tha prosence of Inko navigation, with the Mississippl and 8t. Lawrence Rivers and the Erio Caual, must, during tho scason, always limit the maximum rates of rall transporta. flon. ‘This §s something which cannot bo suppresied, nor can it be hought up, nor can it bo pooled. When navigdtion is closed, the rallroads may advance thelr rates, but even then thoy will be coutrolled, so far ns the grain trade is concerned, by the water. route. Chicago and tho plhor loke citiea have the capacity to warehouse, and tho cap- ftal to carry every bushel of grain that is offored for salo during the close of naviga- tion. . Tho cost of warehousiug and the jn. terest on tho money are matters of exact computation, and if the advanco of rail {reights for the winlor season materially exceed the cost of holding the gruin here, fhen not a 'bushel will go forward. Uhder theso clrcumistances, the power of the zail, yoads to return to high rates must always be Umited by the waler routes, which, on tho completion of the Canadian ship-canals, will be maze pompeting than ayen at present. Whatever combination Mr, VawpzzsiLr may dictato to the other trunk lines must thereforo be on }hn general " basis of tho cheap ratey of traosportatiqn which have provailed during the last fow. years, and may find form in Ale establisbinont of @ porwa. neut rate (orgumnur and snothor for win. ter trausportdtion, and ‘whatever rate’'may be eatablished he can compel the other roads to accept and abide by. Practically, he has graspod tho Hon's sharg of the trado for his toads botweon the lakea and New York City, sud may compel the other lines to accopt any portion of that trade on his own torma. If Lo boequul to ko grand opportunitiss ke now posgesses, ha ny rescno raflrond man- agemont from the haphazard, rockless, and spendihrift system it is and hns beon, and place it, on a hasis of pablic as woll nsof corporato intorests, treating thoso interests as inseparable, to be promoatod alike, and in doing this will entitle himsel? to bo olasaed as a national benefsotor, The Olfo Demaeratia ‘Convention seoms liave Loen held mainly for the purpose of promulgating Tox Ewixa's peculinr financial sophistries, Amoug other things it de- mands, ** a8 o further act of justico, ns well 69 mensure of roliof, the repeal of the Re. sumption nct and tho Iawful libiration of doln honrded in the Treasury.,” It may bo permitted to remark that the insertion of this resolution was a significant reminder of Mr, Ewina's fallure 83 n member of Con. { gress, for ho cxplicitly promised lis con. stitnents that, if thoy would sond him to Congress, ha wonld have that Resumption ot reponled within sixty days. Mr, Ewixa failed to koep his promiso, and, asn matter of fact, tho only financial mensures which beoame laws wora dosigned and will operate 1o assiat resumption. The Olio Demoacrats, lowevar, have electdl to stand by Ew- 1Na’s doctrine, thongh thoy may horoafter decidae to select somo Congrossional agent more competent to carry it through Con- gress, It was o very common ocenrronoe durtng tbo recont session of ®Congress for Ew- mo and o numbor of his fellow-Demo- crats to howl for tho ropanl of this Resunp. tion eot, but they woro shrewd enough not {o enter npon nny claborata rensons for the demand. Thoy contented thomselves with generalizations. The Ohio platform.mnkers have not been #o wise, and have given as n apocifio’ renson why they desire the ot re. penled, that such ropont would result in ** the liberation of coin hoarded in tho Traasury.” DBut this {8 precisoly what it would not do. “Fhe Ohio platform sooks Lo convey the im- prassion that tho ndefinite postponoment of Tesnmption would Lring the gold now {u the Treasury into general circulation, But such a result could nat possibly ocour, With no spacifio promiso of resumption ahead, gold would soquire an ndditional valua ovor irre- deomable paper ourrency. Tho groonbnok dollar wonld almost immediatoly decline ogain perbaps into the cightics, whoro it would romnaln with moro or less finctuntion until inflation should begin. Wilh now issnes of frredoomabla pnper currency, the greenbacks would depraciate into the sovan- tios, sixtios, fittles, nud goaon; their value would ba governed by tho amount {ssued, and might run down to nearly #il. Tho gold and gilver in the United States Trensury would not find its way iuto tho hands of the poople. If the Government pald it out, it would not pasa it ot par with n depraciated paper curroncy, but at its market value ; then it would bo sent abrond in exchango for foreign goods, or hosrded in vauits-for its excoptional valuo, or passed from ono safs to another by thoso who should gamble on its rolativo valuo from day to day. If it wore issuod in exobango for United Btates bonds, which would be tho most natural way for gotting rid of it, then the bulk woald go for bonds held abrond, and that paid out for bonds hold at hemo would oventually go abroad or bo hoarded for the purposes nlrendy stnted. Not one dollar of this gold and silver would bo in aptual circulation alongaido of a dopro- ciated, sinking currency not redesmablo in anything, . ’ N Lut (he acoomplishment of resumption undor the act s it now stands will bring about just what tho.Ohio Domocrats prom- iso for the yoponl, It “will' liberato nbout 200,000,000 of gold and legal-tonder silver, now hoarded bocause thero ia still a slight premium ovor tho groonbacks, Resumption onca attained, the coin dollar will have. no groator valuo than tho greenback dollar ro- doemablo in coiu on demand, Itwill perform 1o service which the graenback dollar can. not perform oqually well, and thero will be no advantage in keeplog it out of circulation any longer. Tesumption will acoomplish notably three things: (1) It will absolutely fix the value of greonbacks, and thus give the country & atablo and uniform currency (2) it will bring $200,000,000 of coininto cir- culation that mow llo idle in gold, sil. vor, and bullion; (8) it will add steadily from $80,000,000 to £100,000,000 an- nually to tho coin money-stock of the countrty by providing for tho clrcaln tion of the gold aud silver prodnced: by the American miues and sont hers from nbroad in exchange for Amierican exports, Phis will be expansion, not iuflation,~—roal blood, not wator.

Potersburg correspondent of the London ZT'imes hos furnisbad that paper with tho beat description of tho Slavoulc socletivs of Moscow and 8t. Potorsburg that we have yot seen, and as these socioties played a very Important part in the ocarly stages of the Russo-Turkish war, sod in 1876 mado It pos- sible for Bervia to revolt by sending hor money and volunteers, some of the more prominent facts coutained in his lotter will ba of interest to our roaders. The Blavo- phil school originated In Moscow, and had it foundation upon theological blascs, The founders, Kuosiaxorr and CoNeTANTINE Ak- saxorr, wero religious enthuslasts, and car- ried thelr religious babits to the verge of asootiolsm, They contended that the Last. ern Church, by avolding the extromes of Protestantivm ou the one hand and Oathol. feism on the other, had within it the germs of a now and pormgnent philosopby which would develop immense power and in. fuenco Yong after the Wostern Oliurches had goue to pieces of thelr own rottennoss. Acting upon this assumption, Moscow Blav. ophilism commonced o bitter and vigorous orpiade against Wostern theology, politics, oulture, aud sociaty, and rested ity hopes for the Blavio future upon the triwmph of the ‘Esatorn Church, . Its dlstinotive charaoteris. tio was theologioal, aud ita founders relisd upon the thoological element to achieve future mora! and intollectual success, When Slavophilism appeared in Bt, Potors. burg, it was fu g now garb. It had s diffoy. ont foundation, and it sought different yogults. ' ‘Thero iz as essontial a difference between Bt. Putersburg and Mosow as be- tween Boston aiid New York. Liko the #Afodern Athenw,” 8t, Potersburg nssumes to be Lighly intellsctusl, Et is a ity of now philosophies, - of advanced ideas, of meta. physics as opposed to theology, and of isms snd notions.

No systom of othica can obtain alodgment thero withont bolng permoated by other systoms and undergoing radical change. This was tho exporionco of Slav- ophilism, and the olinnge waa a radioal one, Its religious charaoter disnppeared. The in- tclligonoo of 8t. Petorsburg declared that porfect developmont could only be obtained through metaphysical means. In liko man- ner the French Communist Reavavrr de. olared religion to De a drag npon progress and orderod the arrest of Gob, and Kinn Many, the German Socialist, nfllrined it to bo the opium of the nations, While the Mos- cow Blay holds to the traditions and advo. eates religions and moral cullure, tho St. Tetersburg Blav cuts looso from religion, aud ndvocates tho emoucipation of opprossed Blnvio racosnnd tribes with the view of making thom allies for politieal purposcs.
