There is great deal of commotion in Wash- ington just now about the frauds on the Trea- sury in the Internal Revenue Department. It ig euppreased as much as possible by the friends of Mr. McCulloch, by the fraudulent distillers’ influence in Congress, and by those interested in shielding the guilty internal revenue off- clals ; but the frauds are so flagrant and gigan- tic that the facts relating to them cannot be smothered. The subject is of so much import- ance and go replete with startling revelations that with all the efforts to pass it over or make the best of it the truth will appear. This was seen in the proceedings of Congress on Thurs- day. So sensitive was the House of Repro- eentatives on the subject that a little spark created a great blage. The violent language used and the whole spirit of the debate showed the intense ‘interest and deep feeling among the members. of that body, Mr. Schenck, in speaking of the delinquent internal revenue Officers and the Metropolitan Board of Investi- gation, eaid that the Secretary of the Treasury kept his “brood of rascala in office, and then appointed a committee to watch them,” while other members attempted to defend Mr. MoCal- loch, without denying, however, the enormous frauds committed under his administration of the Treasury. But with all this commotion it is evident that Congress has neither the knowledge nor capa- city to grasp and deal with the subject. Tho manner in which it was brought up shows the ignorance and incompetency of members. The question raised was simply as to the power and right of the Seagetary to appoint the Metro- politan Board of Revenue. This was a very small affair in comparison with the greater question of the frauds themselves, of the par- ties responsible for them, and the remedy to be applied. It is a rule of mathematics that the lesser is swallowed up by the greater; but these Congressmen do not think so; they wrangle over a trifling matier of authority in appointing a commission to investigate the frauds, while these monstrous frauds, the causes of them, and a remedy against them they leave untouched. The Board is well enough, and we think the creation of it is about the best official act Mr. McCulloch ever performed. It is composed of the right sort of men, and may render valuable service to the country. Why could not Mr. Schenck find something more important and more to the point in exposing the mismanagement of the Treasury Depart- ment, which has led to these stupendous losses to the government? As to investigating the frauds, Mr. McCulloch is doing right, provided the investigations be thorough and honest; but the country wants to know how far he is responsible for them or who is responsible. Mr. Schenck, however, was not the only member who failed to see his duty or the im- portant point in this matter of frauds on the revenue. Mr. Ingersoll entered into a defence of the Secretary on the single point of the authority to appoint the Board of Investiga- tion. He abused New York well for its frauds on the revenue, but said nothing about the six hundred barrels of contraband whiskey that were hauled out of a cave in his Congressional district. We would not presume to say Mr. Ingersoll had any knowledge of this fraud upon the revenue in his district; but we must say it appears strange that members of Congress can find any reason for defending an officer of the government who has through neglect of duty lost to the Treasury hundreds of millions of dollars. Mr. Kelley could see nothing more important in the matter than the spoils of office. He dwelt entirely upon the mere ques- tion of what partisans were or were not appointed to office. All his anger was vented on this question. Mr. Allison, Mr. Van Wyck, Mr. Barnes and others, who participated in the debate, saw nothing of more consequence than the offices or the right of the Secretary to inati- tute a commission of inquiry. This imbecility and want of comprehension of the important question at issue on the part of Congress is lamentable. It shows plainly the incapacity ot that body to comprehend and deal with matters of great public interest. We hardly know how to designate its ignorance and incompetency. Had it admitted P. T. Barnum to a seat in face of his clear de‘eat by the people of Connecticut we might call it the Barnum Congress or the Humbug Congress; but, looking at its conduct about the revenue frauds, we may properly call it the Whiskey Congress. All this twaddle about small matters or indifferent questions amounts to nothing. The frauds, the cause of them and the responsibility for them are the proper subjecis of inquiry. Mr. McCulloch may try to lay the blame on Con. gress or his subordinates; but the trath is, he is the responsible party. As Secretary of the Treasury it was his duty to see that the revenue was collected and frauds prevented. It is non- sense talking about the tax being so high that it cannot be collected. The excise tax on spirits in England is bigher than with us, is above two dollars and fifty cents in gold, equal to about three dollars and fifty cents in currency, and yet it is collected there. Why not here? There is no reason in the world why it could not if the head of the Treasury did his duty. If the Treasury continues to be mismanaged in this manner, and Congress should show no more ability to correct the evil, we may look for national bankruptoy and 4 repudiation of the national debt. We shall see the extraordinary anomaly of a prosperous country in industry and commerce with an empty Treasury, an embarrassed government and repudiated debt. Such is the prospeet before us unless a radical change be made in the management of our national finances. The Whiskey Frauds. It is claimed by the whiskey distillers that under the present rate of duty (two dollars a gallon) it is impossible for them to carry on their business legitimately. Now, in Great Britain the tax ie eleven shillings and sixpence @ gallon, or more than two dollars and a half of our money, while the cost of manufacture is only two shillings and threepence. Formerly, in the United Kingdom, the duty was very much higher, and then illicit distilling and other frauds upon the revenue were extensively practised. Under the present scale of duties these have almost entirely ceased. Now, we should like to know why, with & lower tax upon whiskey than that which is found effeo- tive for revenue purposes in Great Britain, we cannot enforce the moderate duty imposed by Congress. Evidently the fault lies, not with the law, but with its machinery. For this the Treasury Department is alone responsible, ‘The President's VetomKxecutive Power. Another veto has been added to the number, and the Reconstruction ‘bill has passed both houses over the Prealdent’s head. This veto Contains the usual flourishes about the “intol- erable” condition to which Congress would reduce twelve million persons; it declares that the sentiments of the veto of the first bill apply also to the present bill, and are “sound and unanswerable,” notwithstanding the way in which Mr. Stanbery turned them inside out; it discusses whether the States are States or not, and, finally, it expresses the fears of the President that bis being left out of this last bill will “sap the foundations of federal power.” This is the espegisl point of the message, “Withina period of less than a ycar the legislation of Congress has attempted to strip the Executive Department of the govern- ment of some of its essential powers,” and this tendency culminates in the present bill, which does not even contemplate his existence and provides for its enforcement independently of his office. Touching this giving executive power into other hands the President says:— “While I hold the chief executive authority of the United Statos, while the obligation rests upon me to see that all tho laws are faithfully executed, I can never willingly surrender that trust or the powers given for its execution. I can never give my assent to be made respon- sible fur tho faithful execution of laws and at the eame time eurrender that trust and tho powers which accompany it to any other execu- tive officer, high or low, or to any number of executive officers.” People will hardly know how to take those phrases. It is not strange if the country has no respect for the President’s vetoes. It is only a conviction of sincerity that commands re- spect for opinions not in accordance with genoral sentiment; and it is difficult to know if the President is sincere. Not long ago, ina veto message, the President expressed argu- ments against a bill in the most uncompro- mis'ngly positive terms. The biH was then on its passage, and such opposition, if Congress bad been wavering, might have defeated it. But the bill was passed, and hardly was this done before the President’s former views re- ceived flat contradiction by his own authority. Since then people are naturally in doubt whether the utterances of a veto are the real opinions of the man or whether they are only assumed for effect, and are to be put away and contrary ones taken up, as occasion may re- quire. We know not whether these opinions are to receive official contradiction by and by; but if they.are Mr. Johnson's real views, we can give him a comfortable assurance that he has taken an exaggerated view of our trouble ; the nation ig not in such dangeras he fears. The question of executive power is not beyond ordinary comprehension. If we rea- son our constitutional theories down to an ultimate analysis we find them all resting on a primary declaration of the sovereignty of the people. The people are the nation, and the body of men chosen by the nation to represent it is the depositary of ils will and its power in any last appeal. All tho rest is machinery— necessary and proper for {its purpose, but always subject, and always to give way if public safety require. Declarations that these are three co-ordinate branches of the govern- ment—legislative, executive and judicial— are not strictly true; for what are these latter branches but the necessary ad- juncts of the former—the mere means of giving effect to its will. Congress makes laws, and the Executive is merely to enforce its will, while the duty of the Judiciary is, in case of doubt, to define and determine disputed points. There is no co- ordinate power here. But the question fs, can Congress, can the nation, dispense with this authorised executive, this constituted right arm? Can it give effect to the popular will by any other channel than that provided in the organic law. We are living in times that are loosely knit, if not out of joint with respect to the rigid applica- tion of constitutional rules. Our constitution was shaken in every line by the great rebellion of the Southern people and the great war they made to free themselves from the obligations of that law ; and it has not yet recovered from the blows they gave. All this reconstructive legislation is admittedly extra congtitutional; for the constitution made no provisions fora case that could not occur till its obligation was lost, But who will maintain that the people should Jet the nation perish because the con- stitution did not prescribe a way to save it? The people acted on the facts, and not on legal points, in saving the nation, and they are quite satisfied that Congress should now act on the facis, and, as it has been compelled to make extra constitutional laws, shall arrange an extra constitutional enforcement of those laws. There is no departure from the principles of the government upon which freedom depends. There is departure from the letter of the law and departure from usage; but we have not lived enough on our law and our usages the past four years to make this a cause of alarm, and we may regard these departures as rather inconvenient than dangerous. It will in the future be the deepest reproach to Mr. Johnson that he made this course necessary—that he compelled Congress to familiarize the nation with encroachments on constitutional usage that might have been spared if be had readily and in good faith executed those laws that his veto was insufficient to defeat. Congress showed its good faith in this matter when it entrusted the President so fully as it did with the execution of the first law and the appoint- ment of the commanders. Knowing that he was opposed to its course, that the law was passed over his veto, it yet seemed to feel an honorable confidence that he would not carry his obstruc- tive spirit into the line of his daty. He disap- pointed that confidence, and hit upon interpre- tation as a means to defeat the law while seeming to execute it; and now Congress is fally in sympathy with the nation in acting on the assumption that the proper executive can- not safely be entrusted with the enforcement of this law. From the circle surrounding the President it has been vaguely given out that he could not recognise as a lawan act that did not contemplate him as {ts Executive; and his declaration quoted above is somewhat positive to the same effect. It remains to be seen whether the President will act upon the theory of his arguments, and, ignoring the existence of this law, proceed to the enforcement of some exhumed and quite constitutional statute antagonistic to this, and thus put himself in direct and open conflict with the people. We do not believe he will. We believe that he will content himself with a war of words; but at the least indication of a tondency to do more his impeachment and re- moval will be = matter of course. His own argument forces the conclusion that it would have been better if he had been removed ere this—if Congress, once atisfied that he would not enforce a law he'did not like, had put in bis place @ man with a differ- ent sense of duty and accomplished the national purpose in that way instead of accomplishing it by means tending to a contempt of tho office. Chevallor Abbett and Mexican Annexation. From our Washington advices it appears that the brother of the Mr. Abbott who, in his his- torlo adulations, pays such fulsome tribute to the Bunapartes, is trying to start a little Napo- leonic scheme of his own. A number of our prominont legislators have listened to Mr. Abbott's story, and while some are disgusted with it, others, like shy trout, are only nibbling at the bait, What a pity they cannot have the good sense to carry forward a dignified Mexi- can policy. There are two great questions before the American people—reconstruction and Mexico, We have almost ruined the first ; let us at least show a little common sense on the second, On the part of the Mexican people, as a mass, there is not the slightest disposition to part with a single square inch of Mexican soil finder any pretence. The present rulers of Mexico are the exponents of this feeling to an intense degree, So salient has it become in Mexico that it fa one of the great principles of their republicanism, The Mexican Congress, when it was forced to docree dictatorial powers to President Juarez, gave him every power except that of alienating Mexican territory. This they expressly stipulated should not be done. At Chibuabua was issued, in November, 1866, a government contradiction in strong terms of the reports which were being ciroulated about the sale of Northern Mexico. At several public dinners on the way from Chihuahua to San Luis Potosi the President openly denounced those enemies of Mexico who made such a charge against the government. At San Luis, at the birthday dinner of Juarez, in March last, he again denied the rumors; and the Foreign Minister, Sebastian Lerdo do Tejada, in the hot- test speech of the banquet, boldly proclaimed the policy of the Mexican republic, and stated that “under no circumstances would Mexico sell a square feot of her estate.” Said he, “We will save every inch of Mexican territory intact, or we will sink the nation!” These words indicate that if traders in national disintegration would make anything out of this Northern Mexican scheme, they must first, by a revolution plotted in the United States, upset the present Mexican government. The President, however, who in Mexico would alienate an inch of the soil, could not occupy his seat while the ink of his signa- ture was drying, so great is the national oppo- sition to such a scheme. The prop er and quickest way to make Mexico valuable to us is to cultivate friendly relations with her, end aid her in the support of the sams principles which we profess and which she is endeavoring to establish. A hearty determination on our part to see justice done to a country which has had a long and ardu- ous struggle in the attempt to do justice to her- self, is worthy the great nation we boast our- selves to be. This is the way to open the doors to Mexican wealth. This will open the broad channel of commercial progress and give both nations an impulse in that direction which we so earnestly demand and absolutely need. Out with the filibustering efforta of a few dis- contented men who have not the genius to see that peace and mutual aid, in sustaining re publicanism on this continent, are the true road to a great future! As we asked Europe to let us manage our own troubles daring our rebellion, 80 Mexico asks us, as her just right, to give her an opportunity to manage her affairs. Mexico has the evils of @ fifty years’ Teligious war to train into peaceful channels, She bas, besides that, the worse curse of a five years’ foreign intervention and all the civil hatreds it has engendered to quiet down. Let us give her a chance to finish the great work of liberalism which, under such adverse circum- stances has come to the surface, while we, with Anglo Saxon common sense, attend to our own Mexican problem in the South. “Phe Cat Out of the Bag. In a speech at the recent dinner in Washing- ton given to the Hon. Thomas Cave, M. P.,Sena- tor Cameron said that after his retirement from the War Department, had not the contracts which he made for arms been rejected on the ground of excess, the country would have been spared the anxiety and the peril of keeping the army for so long a time from going into the field properly armed and equipped. The in- ference inevitably follows that Mr. Secretary Stanton, in cancelling those contracts of his predecessor and in making new contracts, had his own friends to provide for, and hence the long continued cry of “ All quiet on the Poto- mac.” This lets the cat out of the bag. A good many hard things were said of Secretary Cameron’s extravagant contracts about the time of his retirement, but they were baga- telles compared with the extravagances which followed. As he was “Honest Old Abe's” first choice for the War Office, and as he has proved stronger in Pennsylvania even than Old Thad Stevens and Forney together, we think that General Simon Cameron would be a good name to put on the ticket with General Grant for the Presidential succession. Sayta Anna.—We have received from Anto- nio Lopez de Santa Anna, Jr, a document which we cannot publish ; for it would subject us to at least half a dozen libel suits. It brings wset of charges against Mr. G. Naphegyi, which are of a strange character, and which throw @ still greater cloud around the movements of Santa Anna while in the United States.
