WASHINGTON. Secretary Boutwell Opposing Further ; Tariff Reductions. Thy Alleged Frauds in the Indian Bureau. The New York Central Rallroad Dividend Cases ebwedencps Death of the Wife of Secretary ? Belknap. WASRINGTON, Deo. 29, 1870, . Alleged Frauds in the Indian Bureau, Jt is understood that soon after the reassembling of Congress a resolution will be introduced in the Senate directing the Committee on Indian Affairs te investigate the charges of fraud and corruption re- cently made agatnst the Indian Bureau ty William. Welsh, of Philadelphia. Mr, Welsh, 1% will be re- membered, was chairman of the Indian commission when that body was originally appointed. He in- sisted that the Commission should supervise the pur- chase or all goods for the Indians as well as to see wat they were preperly distributed. General Parker, the Commissioner of Indian Affairs, was will- ing to accede to the latter part of the proposition, but he argued that inasmuch as he was ofiicially responsiple for the purchase of goods for the Indians he should not be interfered with by outside and to some extent irresponsible parties, The President was appealed to and he sustained General Parker, whereupon Mr. Welsh resigned his position on the peace commission, and set about to work for the Indians in his own way and upon bis own account. it appears that he has kept a strict watch upon tho operations of the bureau, and he claims to have als- covered grave irregularities In its management, es- pecially in the matter of purchasing goods. Should the charges he has preferred prove true upon inves- ugation, itis believed that General Parker will be removed, to say the least, from the position he now cecupies. The President has had so) «much faith In Payker’s integrity that he has refused to believe statements that have been made to him from time to time against the Commissioner. Itis proper to add that, while Mr. Welsh is Known as a responsible man, Geveral Parker asserts that he ca show a clean record before any in ating committee taat may be appointed, The Now York Central Tax Dividend Cases Fustponed. The Acting Commissioner of Internal Revenue has received a letter from Commodore Vanderbilt ask- ing afurthcr postponement of the hearing before hin in the case of the internal revenue tax alleged to be due the government by the New York Central Railroad Company. As a plea for delay Commo- dore Vanderbilt states that both himself and his counsel are sick, and on this ground the case bas been postponed. It is alleged that the railroad com- pany owes the government over a million dollars for tax on dividends, ‘The case is one of considerable importance, and will be carefully argued on voth sides, AS General Pleasonton, the new Commis- sioner, takes charge on the 3d of Junuary the de- casion of the case wil! rest with him, No ‘Tarif Reductions this Session. As the reduction of the revenue from imports will amount to over $40,000,000 annually Secretary Bout- well is of opinion that Congress should cease tinker- ing with the tariff for some time to come. Should any attempt be made at the present session to re- vise the tarlil, with a view to further reducing the autics on imports, Boutwell will use his influence with the Committee of Ways and Means and the Benaie Finance Committee to defeat it, because he does not think that the revenue of the govern- ment will admit of any further reduction for we present, The Fresident and the Blinols Senatorship. It having been stated that the President wrote a letter to a prominent Illinols politician against the election of General Logan to the Unitea States Senate, the President has authorized a denial of the statement, and adds that he bas purposely re- fused to Interfere in any manner with the election of United States Senators by the several Legislatures, Where the Legislatures are republi- can be expects that whoever may be elected will give the administration their cordtal support. In States where the Legislatures are democratic he ean, of course, have no choice. The ramor of his having writien a letter against Logan probably originated from the fact that Logan is knowa to be Opposed to the St. Domingo business, Encouragement of the Shipbuilding Tntercet. It has been stated that the President will at an early day send a spectal message to Congress upon the subject of American commerce and the ship- building interests of the country generally. In dis- cussing our maritime Interests it is said that he will recommend the abolishment of shipbutlding at the government yards, and to have _tne same wansferred 16 private” yarda, order to sustain individual enterpmse. In this Tmeasure he 18 heartily sustained by the Maine delegation, and should he present such views in his message they will undoubiedly excite much opposition from the politicians who are per- sonally interested tn retaining this class of work at tue navy yards for electioneeriag purposes, Denth of Mrs. Belknap, Mrs. Belknap, wife of the Secretary of War, died ‘here this evening, after several months’ illness, Mrs. Belknap was a Southern lady, @aughter of Dr. Tomlinson, who represented one of the oldest and most respecte] families of Harodsburg, Ky. She wasa most estimable laay, and her death 1s deeply deplored by all who knew her. After the death of her father she went to reside in Keokuk, Iowa. Her brother was an Oflicer in the Confederate army, on the staff of General Samuel W. Ferguson, and during the war was captured near Meridian, Miss. it was during her efforts to secure his release from captivity that she was brought in contact with Gen- eral Belknap, who was a widower, and the ac. guaintance which was thus formed between them resulted in their marriage. Subsequent to that event she spent several seasons on the Rhine, and she was universally admired wherever she went during her sojeurn in Europe. Her family bas been predisposed to consumption, and after the birth of her daughter, seme two months ago, her health had been gradually on the decline. Payment of New York Cexsus Marshals. ‘The Superintendent of the Census Bureau and Fifth Auditor had a conference to-day in reference to the pay of the Assistant Marshals engaged in re- taking the censusof New York, It was at first argued that there was no provision made for such additional work, but an examination of the statutes brought to light a law passed in 1852, making provision for just such an emergency as has arisen, and their claims will be audited as fast as presented. Congress ‘will, however, be obliged to pass a Deficiency bill in order to meet the existing demands on the Census Bureau. Instructions to the Collector of Customs at New York. The Secretary of the Treasury to-day issued the following instructions to the Collector of Customs at New York:— WASHINGTON, Dec. 28, 1870, 8im—Referring to previous correspondence between this department and your office relative to the settlement of cer- fain doubtfal_points arising under the act of July 14, 1870, and the manner m which the provisions of the twenty-sixth section of said act shall be earried into effect, I have to say that, upon due consideration of the matter, the following in- structions are preseribed : _ 80 as is weighin; regaugin, we ging, mere’ 3 es ponte store 9, ponded | warevouse t of January, J¢71, in all cases where the classification in radically changed tive act of duly 14,1870, such au ugar, wines, ge oF the ayy Smendatory thereni, approved December 34, 180, Re- ae apeetleg will th all “cases ve tnade whed tbe original classification is insufficient to vetermine the correct rates Guiles to be pad uncer the new law.

A Youns Wife Beaten to Death by Her Hus- band and Brother-in-Law. While a cockfight was in full blast in Fogel’s Hotel, in Westchester village, Westchester county, on Monday evening, a young married woman named Conner, residing at Williamsbridge, sought the place in search of her husband. Here she foun him with his brother, both in a quarrelsome state intoxication, though neither objected to returning to their home with her then, and with another drink all round the party passed out the door ang were soon lost. in tl larkness of the night. A few moments mote and the terrible cry of mur- der WeoHs the occupants of the place, and, guided by the screams, several gentlemen quickly reached a point on the Williamsbridge road where they found the young wife in a seml-consclous state, shockingly bruised ana bieeding.

Mrs. Conner, it js ee Me ‘was @ quict, in- dustrious woman, respected, and had been scarcely a year marrted. ‘The Coroner’ has been notified, and many new facts, it is believed, will be developed on the inquisition.

Shipping Notes. Day by day the interest {s deepening in tho matter of per- manently {mproving the extensive river front of this city, the whole work of which bas been entrusted, as is known, tothe Commissioners of Docks appointed by Mayor Hall. ‘Tne magnitude of the undertaking and the value of the pro- perty in trust is such that not only are the mercantile inter- ests of the metropolis much concerned in the engineering enterprises, but the whole country looks on with a single eye to the intelligent discharge of the responsible duties devolv- ing upon the members of the commission. To meet this re- sponsibility properly 18 a task far from being easy, yet there is not the least doubt it will be done in the spirit demanded by the community, and the time {s not far distant when the miles of tumble-down, rotten wooden wharves that now encire'e the city will be replaced by plers that will with- stand the wear and tear of business and the onslaught of the elements for centuries. Almost nine months bave passed since the creation of the Board empowered to do this worx— “erecting a system of permanens wharves, docks and ba- sins, at annual expenditure of $8,000,000 for as many years as shall be necessary to complete it"—and, though the preliminaries of the vast enterprise have yet only peen started upon, the Commissioners’ Is'ors bave been very great, and have been satisfactorily performed. In the adapt- ation of this vast work to the requirements of New York's commerce, both present and in the future, it is almost su- perfluous to remark that it is of the greatest importance that the utmost caution should be used in the selection of the best of the many plans submitted for aduption, and that the re- cognized engineering talent of the country should be em- ployed in carrying out the projected improvements, This task sat once delicate and responsible. The plan determined upon and the work done, expending many mil- Mons of dollars, it cannot be performed the second time. It must stand asa monument of the wisd mor imhecility of those in charge. Upon its successful completion depends, in no small degree, the future commercial greatness of “aw York, and it will not be unwise in suggesting that in its per- formance the Board should, perhaps, be guided by the expe- rience of other and older municipalities who have gone through the work of the construetion of vermanent wharf and ptor systems similar to that upon which we are just be- ginning. Many will be the words of opposition incited by the defeated who are now energetically moving to become interested 1 this vast work, but that is natural and will not provoke the master-minds of the commission to the least swerving from their settled purpose, as in the essential par- ticular of firmness they must be as a unit. The dock#of Liverpool have a river frontage of 11 miles, exclusive of those at Birkenhead, lying directly opposite, as South Brookiva is to New York. ‘The iargest sized ships enter and depart from that port through three gates, which form two separate locks; but their arrival and departure are governed by high water, this being necessary from the fact that the epring tides rise 90 fect, and at times, when strong westerly wind 1s blowing, to 85 feet. Here, as else- where in prominent Eugiish ports, the docks are constructed of granite blocks, varying from one to two tons each in weight, and buils up in solid masonry. The gates of the dooks are opened and closed by hydraulic power, At London the docks have a frontage, on poth aides of the ‘Thames river, of 8 miles, They run the whole distance from London Bridge to the Victoria Docks, are operated in the same manner as those at Liverpool, and, to # great extent, are equally as capacious and as substantially built, although many of them are very old, At Bristol the docks have the fresh water of the river Avon running through them. It ts well known how the natu- ra) courte of the river was turned to fill its basins, making the water as pure and clean as that of the London basins is foul and dirty. ‘The spring tides in the Bristol Uhannel, with trong wosterly wind, rise to the helg ht of 49 fect, and in the city, where the entrance to the docks leaves the bottom of the channel dry for a great distance, these tides rise fully 37 and 88 feet. Many of the ports in the north of France are very well built of stone and wood combined, and, although not as commodious as those of the principal English ports, are much better than any to be found in this country. The docks of the Mediterranean ports belonging to both Italy and France are constructed of solid masonry, like those in Liy- erpool, yet without the basins, the light tides rendering these unnecessary. Ports on the Black Sea have very exten- sive and durable docks, and likewise has Alexandria, Egypt; and of thesé solid piles of stone and masonry it can be said they stand for ages without needing repairs, In comparison, how miserable and mean has been the policy of New York, and how disgravefal the frontage to her noble rivers and bay seem the decayed gangways so improperly called docks! ‘With these examples before them the Department of Docks of this vast city can hardly go astray. They can make im- provements on the piers of the Old World and produce such structures that their names will be held in especial remem: brance by the great commercial community of the present day, and in the future serving as more lasting monuments to thelr genius than any obelisk ever erected, Let the work be done systematically and thoroughly. Let practical mep and honest engineers have its direction. Let there be no de- Jay after the right plan 1s settled upon, and then all unneces- sary expense will have been obviated and the good of the clty eerved. Tbe metropolis stands in need of such men at the head of this vast movement.
