Te Advertisers.—Our advertising patrons are requested to send im their favors before 12 o'clock ™., as advertisements received Jater cannot be imsured an insertion in ‘Tee StaR of the same day, on account of the pressure of news matter after that hour With every disposition to accommodate, we d ourselves obliged to lay down this rule nd adhere to it. Many seem to suppose that our Government ‘Will at once recognize the Cuban patriots as belligerenis, and almost as a matter of cours». ‘This speaks better for the hearts than the heads of our people. It seems to be wholly forgott-n that we are committed positively and solemaly to a code of neutral obligations which forbids such intervention on our part. Throughout the rebellion we insisted that foreign powers Should not recognize the Confederates as bel- Lgerents, and we nearly went to war with England because she acted on the contrary the- ory. We have persistently claimed redress trom England for that courve on her part. and are quite likely to reject the Lreaty lately nego- uated by Reverdy Jobnson, on the ground that Mt does not compel that power to ery peccari tite penitently enougd. Can we now abandon the principles of public law and international obhgations upon which we have planted our- selves? Further, shaii we grant to the Cubans in the fifth month of their struggle the recogni- tion of independence we should have fough; England for conceding to the Coafederates in the third y-ar of the war of rebellion viously if we do we mast abandon a: claims against England for redress; also, the ‘whole theory of neutral obligations we Baye so strenously maintained. In bis inaugural President Grant said in re- gard to his foreign policy «I would respect the rights of all nations, demanding equal respect for our own. It others depart from this rule in their dealings ‘With us, we may be compelied to follow their pre- cedent.” It may be said, too, that Spain by her un- triendly course towards us in our time of trial bas forfeited toe right to any consideration of ber interests in the matter: but that is not the point. It is whether we can afford lightly to abandon the principles of neutral obligatior upon which we have made so strenuous a fight President Grant in his inaugaral indi- cates that if redress is not afforded we may be Ob. | eur | comprlied to follow their precedent. Bat by | the context he evidently holds that the prece- centis an extremely bad one. The Cubans will have the sympathies and moral-support of oar people, but we do not look for any speedy abandonment of our neutral policy im their be half by our Government. Tus Twastr Moawon Wives.—Quite a fillip bas deen given to public curiosity by the statement that twenty of Brigham Young's wives bave arrive! im the Sta'es on mn to Washington. Telegrams have appeared daily announcing their progress through the West, or their way bere, aud speculation has been busy as to the purpose of their visit to the National Capitol. The supposition has been that it might bea shrewd dodge on the part of Brigham Young to send a score of bis most fascinating spouse: to diplomatize our government officials and members of Congress, dispel the prejudice now existing against polygamy. and estabiisa Mormonism in the good graces of the ruling powers. Another theory is that in consequence cf the dull times in Utab and the grass-hop- pers baying eaten up their provisions, Brigham Young finds it dificult to support bis many ‘Wives and sends 9 lot of them here to get places inthe Treasury Department, Anyhow, such au arrival woald be a: send to Washingtow. We have'ut hai a ti class Sensation for nearly a week, and the at. Vent of twenty pretty Mormon womep, would set things in motion. Ne aper Row ts st nating for Want of such a mewsy Doon. we In our report of the proceedings of the Board of Aldermen at their last meeting, published in the STaR of Tnesday, mention was made of the Teference to the Finance Committee of that Board of a message of Mayor Bowen, sabmit- ting and recommending for the favorable action Of the City Councils, a report of the committee appointed by the Mayor recommending a sub- scription of one million of dollars towards the extension of the Loudon and Hampshire Railroad, with a memorial of most of ont ‘Wealtbiest citizens and enterprising busines® men spproving said recommendation; also, a communication addrrssed to the Mayor by the committee appointed by the recent citizens meeting held at the City Hall to consider the question of additional railroad com nauication, recommending that the Corporation subscribe three Bundred thousand doliars towards the construction of the Southera Maryland er Point Lookout Railroad. As both of the proposed measures are cordially endorsed by our busi- ness men generally, and are, we believe, approved by a large majority of our citizens, we trust that the Finance Committee | Will report favorably at the meeting of the Board of Aldermen next Monday evening, and that bills for making the proposed subscription of $140,000 to the Loudon and Hampshire railroad, and $300,000 to the Point Lookout Toad, will be passed at an early day by the City Councils. No one can exaggerate the im- portance of the connection with both these Toads to the future interests of our city, which ‘will be cheaply obtained if they can be secured for the amounts proposed. Addivional rail- Toad facilities are imperatively demanded for the District cities, and if we let these oppor- tunities slip, it may retard our’ advance tor years. The irrepressible desire in a Yankee to “swap” crops out pretty strongly in the comments and suggestions of the New England papers in re- gard to the state of affairs now existiog in Mas- sacbusetts in consequence of the transfer of Mr. Hoar from the Supreme Court of that State to the office of Attorney General of the United States. As near as we can get at it, the propo- sition seems to be to put Mr. Dawes on the bench vacated by Mr. Hoar, then to pa Gov. Claflin in Mr. Dawes’ place in Congress, and finally to make Mr Dawes Governor of the State vice Claflin resigned. What good is to re- suitirom these proposed changes we do not clearly see; but we suppose their consumm: tion would gratify the universal Yankee desire. Besides, it looks like business, whether there is any profit in it or not. Unfortunately, how- ever, for bis enterprising friends, Mr. Dawes declines to facilitate trade in the manner pro- posed. He wisely prefers his present place. National Taeatee.—«La Belle Helene” was given im cnpital style ey the French treape fast evening And to-night we are to bave ons of the best of Offenbach’s Operas“Urphee Aux Ea- fers.” To-morrow afternoon, at the matinee, “Baroe Bleue” will be the attraction, and in the evening +Lischen and Fritschen" and «Mons.

Monday night the Knights Templar levee will be held m the theatre, and on Taesday even- ing Joe Jefferson, the celebrated comedian, ap- pears in “Rip Van Winkle.” ‘The Iatest sensation in the New York papers is tbe experience of an adventurous explorer who spent twenty-four hours in the sewers of that city searcbing for treasures. The report is that be came out with a carpet bag tall of proceeds, various im value, including com, spoons, trinkets, watches, and one diamond Ting, said to be Worth $3,500. Shortly after bis appestarce on tera frma, clad in & water | proof suit and covered with filth and slime, are sorry, therefore, to have to discourage this | bopetul prospect. Tue twenty Mormon wives are myths. Enquiry at the proper quarter brings out the unpleasant fact that no such visitors are expected here. Mr. Hooper is the delegate from Utab. What wore c-riaia than that Le would be advised of Brigham’s Wilely mission to Washington if there was any thing in it. But be koows nothing whatever abo the twenty wives. Now what have the Associated Press tele- eraphers to say to this! Here is an excited community of J2(,0.0 imbabitants —Cabinet ofi- cers, Congressmen, and everyoody else—all agape for Brigham Young's twenty wives, and not x wife fortheomin.! Have the telegrapbers b-en imposed upon by some Yanuee speculator, * who bes picked up ashow-troupe of women aud is passing them off for Mormon wives! Perhaps they are Cheyenne wives or Caicago Wives, or wives to that effect, interesting enough im their way, but not the genuine sealed article. Will the Western telegraphers please exphur? It ts as‘onhing how much business can be transacted ou a small Amount of money,—that is when the tax gatherers are aroamd. It sppears that the raid of Assessor Webster on the bankers of New York has developed the fact that the great foreign banking house of A Belmont & Co.. is now on 8 capital of $150,000, while the specific capital of the house of Jay Cooke & Co, on the corner of Nassau and Wall streets, is said to be only $51,000.

Conclusion of Yesterday's Proceedings. Ses aTe—After our report closed, the Senate ‘Without action om the bill supplementary tothe National Act, went into Exeoative session, And then adjourned Hoveg.— After our report closed— The ker annagounced as the Select Com- Mittee om the revival of the American coi merce, authorized by the resolution passed lew days ago. Messrs. Lynch, Buffington. 0. U. Washburn, Hotchkiss, Morrell, Judd, Holman, Colkyn, and Wel Mr jer (Mass) moved to proceed to business on the Speaker's table. Agreed to, The Speaker said the first business on the ‘Speaker's table was the Serate amenaments to the civil tenure bill. Mr. Butler moved the reterence of the bill Aud amendments to the Judictury Committee. Mr. Farnsworth (Il!.) moved to concur in the Senate amendments. Mr. Butler said be would not yield tor that purpose. He yielded to Mr. Loy 111.) who offered an amendment joliows: “Previaed, that all the civil officers. excepting judges ot United States courts. that were filled by the President of the United States prior to March 4th, 1569, shall become vacant on the 30th of June, 1569.” He said he offered the amendment in good faith. He bad thought that the House of K»presentatiyes was entitied to some opinions of its own. He knew that much work had been done in the House this morping to get & concurrence in the Senate amendments to the bill, and the argument used was that it was satisfactory to ihe President. If the time bad come when members of this House were to be used as pack horses, it was time that legislation ceased. Me had as much confidence tu the President as any other mem- ber of Congress, and be proposed to show it by untying bis hands, as he proposed to do in this amendment. The amendment did not repet he law. It only untied the President's hand: ond allowed bim to make appointments with- out being told “if you turn out this or that man, be will do so and so Mr. Washburn ( Wis.) hoped the House would not copeur in the Senate amendments. but would insist upon the bili for repeal. He had heard it stated that if thi 0. Ainstrepeal. The government had rap oneighty years without this law, and it never would have been enacted bat to meet au emergency which was now happily passed. It was said ibattbe President was satisfied with this bill He did eliewe it. At any rate we were not legisiating for General Grant, bat for the countr he people, he knew, would be satisfled with nothing but absolute repeal. Dir. Farnsworth (IU. did not understand why there should opposition to the Senate amendments. The bill as it now stood yielded everything to the President, and ought to be satisfactory to bis friends. The bill allowed the President to make all suspensions during ttfe Tecess. The very next day after the Senate ad- journs, he could go to work and remove all the vtticers if he choose, except the judges of the United States courts. Mr Logan (II.) asked if he could not do so before the law was changed. Mr. Farnsworth (111.) said he could not. He had to give reasons for suspending. He went on to slow the difference between the law us it now stands and the law as amended by the Senate. Mr. Butler (Mass.) said he would give some reasons for bis motion to refer. Ic was true that be bad rushed the bill repealing the law torongh the House withoutdebate. He did so because the whole subject had been discussed by tbe country, and was thoroughly under- vod. The respouse to that action came back m every city and town and hamlet, aye and every farm-house of the country. Tere never was @ mensure that commanded mote ona- Al of "his ong the peopl than the r, tover tothe a the amendments vow before the House. The bill as amended gave the S-nate the entire con- trol of #11 the offices in the country. It trans. ferred the power of remoy fhe and appointing from the executive to the legistative branch of the government. The President might remove @ man, hut if the Senate did o tgree to it, the removed official was restored, and became the real appointee. If a man was suspended by the President, he could get up combinitions and bring what influence he could get io bear upon the Senate to reinsta’e him im his office in spite of the President. The reason why h+ pre- ferred the Executive to the Senate as the ap- pornting power was, that the Executive was responsible, while the Senate was not. We all know im the House, here, that the Senate has adopted a rule of courtesy whereby oue objection, as a gen-ral thing, settied & nomination. The objection of two Senators xererally killed @ maa from their Sta‘e. You go to a Senator and say, « Why wasn't his man turned out!” and be says, «The Senate refused to ‘The whole Sena’e is made responsible, and, 98 @ consequence, nobody is responsible. He would not enter upon a justification of bis vote tor ‘he tenure of-oflice act. He would only say that it was adopted to meet an emer- g-ucy. There were many things done under ‘he Administration of Audrew Johason that had better never been don, and thesooner they are undone the better. He was told that the President had agrred to this amendment of the Senate. Of that he was notaware; butif he did. ne believed the President relied upon the public sentiment of the country and 01 the ~enre of justice of the Hone, and on their own sugnity, to save him trom the infamous pro- visions of the law. Mr. Davis (N. Y.) offered an amendment, in- structing the Committee on the Judiciary to report the provisions of the Constitution which suthorized or legalized the act, and if the law be continued in force, the manner in which it shall be determited by the Supreme Court. The arrendment was rejected. Mr. Butler (Mass.) moved the previous ques- tion on the motion to refer. Mr. Farnsworth (Iil.) moved that the House adjourn. Not agreed to. The bill was referred to the Judiciary Com- miltre—yers 05, nays 79. The House then adjourned. ee a PlCTOBES REATLY FRAMED in thirty min ates with gilt, walnut or imitation montding. styles Ovals.
