In the first place, other measures —sueh as the Apportioninent btll—will con- test for the attention of the Mouse outside of the neevssary appropriation bills. TP interlor Department, with which the ratlroad atfairs of the Nation have been tdentified, las other measures to urge In whieh ft takes n deeper interest, such ng the bill granting severalty in titles to Indians, the bill for the preservation of American thnbor, and some measure for the correction of defects in the Pension Inws* Morcover, the project for a National Rathway Jaw has never recelyed the active support of the Adninistration. The President himself fs possessed with the deluston that it is too early for this Goyernment te agree upon any system for tho: regulation of raflronis, and that the passage of any Inw.now woul re- tard the new growth of railronds that has set jn since the renewal of pros- perlty. Though the present Congress is Demoerntic in both Houses, tho Influence of the Aduintstration In shaping or retard- Ing legistation is lmportunt, It extends to the Departments, and the Departments have a large share In the preparation of the laws, ‘The Indifference of the head of the Govern- ment In this matter Js reflected in tho!nterlor Department, Mr. French, who $s Auditor of Railroad Accounts, has presumed upon his rather nondescript position to reconimend the passage of alaw prohibiting, in general terms, all discrimination in “like possible service” from tho same polnt, for the sune distance, and on tho sanie day, and there let the matter rest, If the raflrond corporations could have the privilege of dictating tho terms of a Jaw, they could not hit upon any expression that would better sult thelr pur- pose. ‘The veteran railroad manager untst have laughed at this suggestion when ho rend it, ns designed to exercise any control over unreasonable charges or unfair diserim- ination. If Mr. French were o hired nattor- ney of the rallronds, Instead of 1 patd em- ployé of the Government, he could searcely make a proposition that would be more sit servient to the rallrond purpose 8 avoiding responsibjlily to the public under the law, ‘This single Instance shows how tittle ald or encouragement the project of National lexis- lation on railway alfalrs hag received from the Adininistration, If the ratlway subject shall comoup for rerlous consideration In the House, It will rest mainly upon the bill reported by the Committee, which Is known ns the Jender- son DIIf, and upon tho substitute known as the Reagan bill. The Henderson bill pro- vides for a National Railway Commission, but seems aimed rather at Investigations, re- ports, and future projects of law than actual remedial Jegisintion. Its chief defects nro that it fails to provide the Commission which it proposes to create with the properauthorlty for the summary process that 1s conceded to be necessary to any rellef from rallrond ex- tortion and oppression; that it contains no pennl provisions for the violation of the regulations Jald down; and that it extends the supervision of the Commissioners to waterways, which, belng free, may be better Ietalone. Though. Mr, Reagan, as Chair manof tho Commerea Committee, reported the Ienderson bill to the House, he imme- diately proposed a substitute, whichis known as the Reagan bill, It prohibits diserlm- Ination, drawbacks, oppressive poollnis, kreater charges for a shorter than for & longer distance In tho performance of tho same service, and other notorlous de- vices for robbing the public, It requires that the Inter-State railronds shall adapt and keep posted schedules of freight mtes and charges, which shall net be chinged without ilve days? public notice, and proylaes for elvil proceedings for triple damages, a quasi-eriin- Inat proeeeding, and actual Indictment, In- volving a fing of not less than $1,000 for vlo- Jation of tho Inw. Tho main defect of the Reagan bitt is that it does not establish a Commission with curtain judiclal and execn- tlvo nuthority necessary to ald in the proper preparation and prosecution of cases agalust offending railroads, lt is true that the railroads destre, if any lexisiation be passed, that a Commission be provided, but tley want a Comtulsston with thed hands and Testricted powers, ‘Phe provisious of tha Reagan bill, with some changes,—such as extending the time for the required notice of new schedules, and strengthened by a re- sponsible and efficient system of a Commis- sion to assist In the enforcement of the laws, after the manner of tho English systeim,— would probably afford the most satisfactory solution of the problem, 1t [s almost hoping agatnst hope, however, to antielpate uny Buch bequest from the dylng Congress.

Captain-General was regarded as Spanish, and, therefore, objectlanable, As a autter of fact, it ls an old English tide, and not any more Incangruous than the other designa- tlons of Wigh rank tnwhleh a Lieutenant. General is a higher officer than a Major- General. s 3 It fs evident that.Gen, Sherman Is a good deal disgruntled over the prospective reap polutment and retirement of Gen. Grant. en, Sherman's — private-letter-which-has- deen-published only cantirms what has beew generally understood to Washington for seve eral days relative to Sherman's sensitiveness on this subject, ‘hough Gen. Sherman wrote upon the presumption that the rank of Captaln-General would be erested If any provision were made for Grant, be would have the same objection to the Intler's retire- ment as ranking General, Gen, Sherman seems to take 8 selfish view: of the cnse. It Is not probable that Gen, Grant would by valted back {nto active service opt tn the event of war, and, Ju such an emergency, there is no doubt that tho: American people with one accord woukl turn to Grant as thelr leader, if he were alive and In full possession of his fueultles, It would bo very unrepnbliean in Gea. Sherman, or any other head of the army, to resist such o call, and, Indeed, re- sistance would not avail. Henes itis Just ag well that Grants rank bo definitively fixed in any proviston that may bo made for his ree Urement. Jtmay he expected that the same narrow and grovellng spirit which pronipted some of the Denioeratic members of the House to vote agalnata few minutes’ recess to receive Grant, and who refused to pay their respects to hin, will snegest. some factions opposition to tha proposed retirement, but ft is “believed that the majority of Democrats will frown down any stieh obstruction, and that the ex-Con- federate element, led by Gen. dav Jolinston, will support any measure that the friends of the es-President shall agree upon, President Hnyes simply desires an agreement tpon any proper bass that shall iltly recognize the en- jnent services! of the great General of the Wars and he fs undoubtedly right in his as. sertion that ninety-nine people out of every hundred, without regard to party, will cor- ally approve of the moyement, to which his recommendation has certatuly given great vi- tallty. A THE FITZ JOHN PORTER CASE. Thy action of the Democratle Senators in passing the amended Fitz John Porter bin, which places thut traitorous officer, after having been convicted by court-martial, upon the retired Ist with the rank of Colonel, is 80 infamous in Its character that Union men will hardly be able to read about it without hhaylng thelr bloou boll, It js an insult to loyal people, and an insult to the Union army which moro thin one officer will ba quick to resent. Its not alone an infamous fetbecause it is unconstitutional, because Congress has no power to mnke xppolnt- ments In the army, or to restore officers after they are court-martinied ont, and because his Southern friends have voted him back Into the army without asking the President to pardon him, but beeausolt Is a defance of Union sentiment, a deflanee offered fo every Union soldier, aslur upon every Union of ficer, and part and parcel of that Southern an- Imosity to the Goverament which erops out whenever the opportunity offers ttself. Gen. Logan aptly characterized It when he sald that he had tore respect for aman who dd his duty on the Rebel side than for a man who failed to do lis duty on eltherside, He might have made his criticism still stronger by stlgmatizing Porter net only as a man who. faited todo his duty (for sometimes’ thers may excuses for non-fulliment of duty), batas aman who was willing to sac- rifice the Union armles and prejudice the safety of the country to gratity his jealousy and hatred of 1 brother-ollicer, Gen. Grant, in his plain, blunt talk, hit the nall on the head, drove it In, and clinched ft, when he said: “It did not look well tor Porter to stay outof the War after his dismissal, as_ his loyalty was In question. Ile would have dona well to vindleate it by going Into the army as. ‘private, If he could go in no other way. ‘The country necded the services of every able-bodied man, Porter staid at home, and new comes forward, years after, and usks for pay. If a man loves lis country he will serve it when in danger, and if he can't ben General he will bo a private soldier.* Fitz Jolin Porter was conyleted of insub-; ordluntion and of conduct unbecoming a soldler upon evidence that was ns clear as tho suntight, AL the speelal pleading in the world cannot clear away tho fact that, In tho hour of danger, when Join Pope was trying to keep back Lee's army from making its Northorn invasion, he refused to come for- ward to hig relief, For that refusal to oboy orders he deserved to have been cashiered in such nignner ag would haya placed upon him the deepest and most Jasting stigma that Buch despleably traitorous conduct deserved, and with him MeCtellan and Franklin also, And $f that verdlet had gone so far as to have condemned this trio uf purposely-in- efticient officers to death it would have been no sevorer punishment than thelr conduct merited, He owes the passage of this bill in the Senate to his Southern friends, Does any one suppose that If he ho hud been a Republican the Southerners would have come forward to his reflef, asked fora new hearing, certified to his layalty and good qualities as an offleer, or voted to place him fn the army again, especially when De had not been pardoned for an offense for whieh le had been found guilty?

Who told you so; did Gen, Gartield say so? Inquires the corro- spondent. Not exactly, responds the long: time frjend, Did be say anything ? again In- quires the correspondent. No, again re- sponds the long-time friéud; but I think hoe fevls os 1 foel aud thinks as I think, and Jom dying to fell the public all’ about what 1 think Gen, Garteld thinks; for 1 am stro he agrees with me from the way he sifted when Ctold hiim that death was hov~ erlng over tha Democratic party; that the South was nehing to forgive the North and welcome carpet-bagxers anil capital to Its orders, and that tt would be the most splen- «td of all systems of Internal Improvements to bore the great American Desert for spring water! Fire away, rejoins the correspond- ent; and so we have, in great detall, what 0 long-tlme friend of Gen, Garfield Uilnks tho President-elvet thinks beeause he Itstens, and smiles, and perhaps dozes before the Ulbrary fire, and says—nothing, THE GREEK MUDDLE. The Montenegrin question having becn settled by diplomacy after two years or more of shilly-shullying, the Greek question, an- other of the unsettled legueles of the Berlin "Treaty, now comes to the front aid Imiced! ately there becomes apparent among the varlous Powers 1 disposition to shirk the re- sponsibility of giving to that little Kingdon the territory which has been twiee given and taken away from her, and which but two years ago nll thesignatory Powers were detere mined should be awarded to her, France having been tho original advoeate of the cession, but for some my sterlous reason, possibly her disitke of offending Austria, who is Jealous of Greek expansion, having cooled down to that degree that she will not uso foree to compel tha cesston, England urges that she, ‘onght to take the Initiative, while Frinee retorts that England, haying suggested tho Berlin Congress ad claimed the Bertin ‘Trenty as her own work, that brought" peace with honor,” as“ Endymton” Beaconstield expressed it, shoud stand spon: sortfor reece, Austria will do nothing, for, having fixed her eyes. tpon Satonica, and made her preparations for an extension In that ditection to gectire a commercial outlet in the Agean, she will not countenance any project that looks like an occnpation of any part of Macedonia by Greeee. Se long as the offensive and defensive alliance exists between Ausiria and Germany, it Is not likely that the Intter will ben party to any negotlution or forelble mensures that are an- tagonistic to the former, In Italy there Js considerable Fellente sympathy, but ltIs not strong enough to in- dueo the Government to take any forward step or fire any cannon, belng confined to the Garlbaldinns, who may go over as Mll- busters to aid the Greeks if open war breaks out. Meanwhile, the Porte, with {ts eustomary shufiling and mas- terly Inactivity In dolng the thing that should bedone, proposes to cede the territory, but the cession must not Include Janina, Metzova, or Larissn, which are the points that Grecee particularly wants, as they are of some value, while the territory, with theso locallties left out, would be of no value at all, unless the possession of a strip of poor land, worthless for any purposes, can be consid- ered valuable, With an impertinence and assurance that are almost sublime, consider+ ing that the territory was promised to Greece two years ago, that two Commissions hive fixed or uttempted to fix a satisfactory front- fer, ant that the territery has been glven to her once or twiee and ihen taken away, Turkey complains to the Powers that Greeco Is pushing forward her ibilitary preparations ant that her Lands of irregilars cross the frontier and prey upon the country. ‘The general outlovk of tho situation can hardly be considered as favorable to Greece, Each one of the Powers expresses Its willlng- ness to nble by the collective judgment of the whole; but, ng every one of tho Powers Is determined to shift the responsibility upon some other one, & collective Judgment ap- pears to be ns remote a contingency as the millennium, and European arbitration as ine tangible a3 1 mirage on the desert, The Greeks In tho meantime have placed them- selves upon ns stroug 2 war-footing ns possl- ble. They havo called out thelr last man, aud placed thelr navy In the best possiblo shape, but both army and navy are small and weak as compared with those of ‘Turkey, even allowing for whatever of irregular out- sido help she may get from Italy or else where, If she takes the field next spring, as sho now Intends, unaided, she will certuinly be crushed by her moro pow- erful netghbor. Will tho Powers stand by and see the Greeks overwhelmed after they withdrew froin the feld once upon promise of a cession of territory to them, and after they have waited for two years only to be put off with Comunissions that did not Intend to aceomplish anything, with barren conferences and with an ingenious yarlety of wretched subterfuges and evaslons, such as the Turks alone could fnvent; or will Russla, who now keops so quiet, strike for them when tho time comes, ns she struel for tho Slavic victims of ‘Turkish tyranny Uvree yenrs ago? If Grecev Js left to Turkish mercy in’ her struggle for her territory which belongs of right to her, It will be the erownlng dishonor of Europe. It is not this time a matter of sentiment, but of honor, A. contemvorary supplies this sketch of the present conditionant progress of the Greeks: There are altogothor about 6,000,000 Greeks Jn Varloug parts of the world, anid of thease only about 1,700,000 Uve in Grainy prunae.
