10 NEW YORK HERALD, MONDAY, JANUARY 5, 1874—WITH SUPPLEMENT: WASHINGTON. Foreshadowing of the Possible Political Issue of 1876. Help for the Southern States in Com- pensation for Slaves. WASHINGTON, Jan. 4, 1874, Whe Possible Politica! Issue of 1876—Im- portant if True. © AYumor is afloat bere that before the lapse of many days a republican Member of the House will submit to chat body @ somewhat bold ana startling proposition for therelief of the Southern States from their present disheartening financial embar- rassments. This proposition, it is said, will be to advance to the Southern States several hundred millions Of cash, or iis equivatent, and partly in consiieration of the heavy losses suffered by the Southern States in the loss of their slave property. Of course there is no hope of the success of any puch scheme this side of the Presidential election of 1876; but suppose you have an ambitious repub- lican or two intent upon a new departure tor 1876, you will perceive that, in gaining the good-will of the South, through the proposition suggested, the republican leading of mm this movement will secure some capital to build apon. It seems to be wnderstood here that a powerful bolt from the admuuistration party is bound to be made for the campaign of 1876, and so if some leading republi- cans during this session of Congress shall lead off im some movement for the Southern vove not set down in the administration programme you need mot be surprised, Chief Justice Williams’ Confirmation. When the nomination of Chief Justice Williams comes up in executive session, which may not be dor several days, as the Judiciary Committee is Bot in a hurry to make areport, Senators Chan- d@ler and Conkling wili first try to rally the administration Senators to the support of Mr. Williams on purely party grounds. If @ rejection stares them in the face, then they will try the game of adjournment, and Conkling will try to pass his compromise arrange- ment, already mentioned mm these despatches, to abolish the office of Chief Justice as a Presidential appointment. It is now considered certain that Mr. Williams will be rejected, tne latest acquisi- ‘on to the opponents being Senator Frelinghuy- sen, making six of the seven members of the Judiciary Committee opposed to his confirmation. Phe Official Correspondence in Relation to the Virginius. Im accordance with the promise made in his Message, the President will to-morrow send to Congress the correspondence relating to the case of the Virginius, As prepared at the State De- partment, itembraces the whole or virtually the whole documentary history of the case, beginning with the first telegraphic instructions to Minister Sickles to inform the Spanish government what ‘the demands of our government would be if the ‘then unofficial news should be confirmed, and in- cluding the correspondence with General Sickles, ‘which ended in the acceptance of his resignation, ‘end the opinion of the Attorney General concern- ing the status of the vessel. Sreasury Hope of a Full Revenue With- out Additional Taxation. Mr. Dawes is quite encouraged by the general Tevival of business, and expresses the confident Bope that by the time it becomes necessary to Jegislate for raising revenue the deficit will have ‘Deen made up to a point at which it can be met by the reductions in the estimates, so that no addi- Aional taxation will be required in any direction. Mr. Kelley’s Non-Taxation Hesolution: When the debate on the Civil Rights vill was in- terrapted by the adjournment of Congress over the holidays it was understood that it would Chances for again be in order on the reassem- dling of the House. The time of the original resolution for adjournment having been changed from Tuesday to Monday, the Sth of January, itis now contended that under the rules tne resolution of Mr. Kelley, of Penn- sylvania, to the effect that it is the sense of this House that the taxes which now burden the people should not be increased, but the necessities of the government should be met by a temporary loan, ‘will ve in order after the morning hour. Mr. Kelley says he is confident the resolation will receive @ decided majority vove, anc it may receive the necessary two-thirds to adopt it; but, should it receive the majority anticipated, it will settle the question of increased taxation. The Southern and Western members, with meariy the whole delegation from Pemnsylvania, will yote for the resolution. The opposition 1s ex- pected mainly from the New England and some of the Middle States. Mr. Kelley says that his views on this subject, as published in the HERALD, have been extensively copied throughout tie country and republished in the leading organs of trade and commerce with the most favorable com- ments, The House Committee om Appropria- tions Cutting Down the Army Budget by Two Millions. ‘The House Committee on, Appropriations met yesterday and spent four hours on the Army bill. Though they did not complete tne consideration of ‘that bill, they agreed upon a reduction of $2,000,000, which is to be reached by another reduction of the numerical strength of the army. They have kn idea that the Indians can be kept down and our flag defended on the high seas with the shadow of an army ana navy. The fre- quent transportation of troops from point to point, mecessitated by the reduced strength of the army, amounts to more than it would cost to aid & few thousands to it, Still these Congressional wiseacres talk reduction. General Garfield says that the committee has already made @ reduction of $100,000,000 since 1868, He does not think the reduction of estimates will be sufficient to cover the deficit in the Treasury. He opposes inflation as a remedy, but thinks it will be neces Sary to resort to a slight increase of taxation. The Postmaster General Objects to Ro duction and Gives His Reasons. ‘The Postmaster General has written a letter to the House Committee on Appropriations in answer ‘to their inquiry whether the estimates for his de- partment cannot be reduced, It will be sent to the committee soon after Vongress reassembies. Alter careful examination the conclusion arrived at is that no reduction can be safely made. Before presenting his report for the last fiscal year the Postmaster General instructed tne heads of tne ‘various bureaus to make their estimates as low as possible consistently with the absolute needs of the service. The estimates thus made were tabu- lated by the Third Assistant Postmaster General and submitted to Mr. Creswell, who, after exam- ‘ning them and consulting with the several heads of bureans, reduced the total $694,517 11. The revised estimates are, without exception, based on the actual necessities, and the natural de- velopment of the postal service is shown by the annual report of the Postmaster General for the jest three years. The largest amounts required are for inland mail transportation and for compen- sation to postmasters. “Of the first item it is only mecessary to observe,” says Mr, Creswell, “that ‘the increase asked for \s much below the average annual increase in that branch of the service. During the past three years the cost of inland ‘transportation has increased for each year over the year last preceding at the rate of eight and one-half per cent annually, while the revised esti- mate allows for an increase of only five per cent for the next fiscai year.” A greater reduction will, Mr. Creswell thinks, impair the ability of the department to keep pace with the actual wants of the country, In regard the second item the Postmaster General has no diseretion whatever. The compensation paid to postmesters is Axed by law, and the department ts durected to investigate the retarns of post- masters and to pay such compensation as may be Iswfally due. The other items estimated were, he says, ip each instance piaced at the lowest figure eonsiasent with the probable wants of the service. The sale of postage stampe, stamped enveiopes, | Rewspaper wrappers and postsl cars rarnishes the actuai revenue of the department, snd their Manufactare and distribution should on no ac- count be suspended or delayed. Congress pro- vides subsidies for certain American steamship lanes and algo the cost of transporting the ordinary foreign mails. These are all indispensable, and must be paid if the laws authorizing them are to be duly complied with, It may be remarked, however, Mr. Cresweh continues, that the increase of $500,000 in the subsidy for the Pacific mat! will net probably be needed, owing to the inability of the company to comply with the law under which the contract for semi-monthly service was provided for. In conclusion the Postmaster General ob- serves that the estimates submitted will be in- adequate toa due performance of the work of the department for the year 1876 without the enforce- ment of a mgid system of economy. Should Con- gress, however, reduce still further the appropria- ton, and thereby compel a denial of reasonabie and proper postal facilities, the department will, Mr. Creswell saya, cheerfully co-operate and accept the amount of the several appropriations as the measure of its expenditures, Estimates of the Light House Board Re- duced One Million. The estimates of the Light House Board have been cut down about $1,000,000, leaving them one- half the sum submitted at the beginning of the session, The Senate Transportation Committee im Favor of Liberal Improvement of Harbors and Rivers. The Senate Committee on Transportation re- turned to Washington last evening, having visited on their Southern tour Atlanta, Movile and New Orleans, The committee are almost umanimous in recommending an appropriation for tke improve- ment ofthe month of the Mississippi River. The Southern and Western members of Congress who have returned say that the demand for an increase of circulation 1s imperative, while any curtailment in appropriations for the improvement of rivers and harbors will be a blow to the republican party. Alexander H. Stephens’ Views on the Civil Rights Question. According to programme, the Civil Rights bill Will be the first thing aiter the morning hour in vhe House of Representatives, and Mr. Stephens, of Georgia, is to open the debate. In order to guard against any mistake or misrepresentation of his views, Mr. Stephens has, tor the twenty- second time in his life, prepared a written speech. In vhis address Mr. Stephens states, first, the grounds upon which he does not oppose the bill; and, next, some of those upon which he does oppose it. In this order of division he de- clares, first, that he is not opposed to the biil be- cause of any disinclination to have awarded to the colored race the full enjoyment of a) their civil rights. He is not opposed to the colored race hav- ing the amplest justice done them as equals before the law. Second, his opposition springs from no prejudice against race, color or pre- vious condition of servitude, He is for equal justice to all, Third, in the administration of justice, which he maintains to be the real source of peace, harmony in all societies or States, govern- ments, in his opinion, should not be influenced by the common yet pernicious dogma of the “greatest good to the greatest number,” but the higher, better rule of the greatest good to all without detriment or injury to any. In Stating his reasons affirmatively for opposing the bull, according to his method of treating it, Mr. Stephens assigns but two. First, the want of constitutional power to enactit. On this head Mr. Stephens goes into a full discussion of the powers conferred by the new articles of the amendment of the constitution as they stood, and without any inquiry as to how they be- came incorporated into the organic law. He quotes largely from a decision of the Supreme Court of the United States, delivered at its last term, known as the “Slaughter House cases,” and also from another decision alterwards made by the same Court at the same term, which, he maintains, fully sustains him on the constitutional question. The fourteenth and fifteenth amendments, so far as they relate to the subject under consideration, he contends, are only protection against State legislation, and confer no new powers upon Congress. The rights secured to the colored race are to be enforced in the same way that tne rights secured to that race, as well as the white race, under other like prohibitions m the constitution before the amendments were made—that is, not by mu- nicipal acts of Congress operating over the people of tae several States, but by the judgment of all courts declaring that all such hostile State legisia- tion is null and of no effect. Secondiy, Mr. Stephens opposes the bill upon the ground of expediency; even if there was any necessity for the passage of any such measure, it should be left to the State Legislature. On this point be maintains tnat the bowers claimed by the bill, even if vested in Uon- gTess, had better be left tothe States, in view of the Whole nature, spirit and history of our govern- ment. If there 18 any truth more promment than all others in that history it is the fact that the germinal principle of all our free institntions was the great right of local self- government by the States, The great issue of constitutionalism on the one side and centralism on the other must soon be met in this country. The dawn of @ new epoch in the politics of the United States is upon us. Tne elements of present party organizations will soon fall into a new align- ment. Of this issue Mr. Stephens maintains that whatever party, by whatever name, whether re- publican, democratic or any other which sball plant itself on the old Jeffersonian creed, will, at no distant day, win as signal a triumph as the same party did in 18¢0. The Indian Tribes and Condition of the Indians—Report and Propositions of the Special Commission. Major Powell and Mr. G, W. Ingalls, who were selected last spring to visit the In trives in Nevada, Utah, Southern Idaho, Nor#™ern Arizona and Southeastern California, nave completed their labors ana are now at work upon their report, which they expect to have ready in about a week. It will be accompanied by maps of some of the localities visited, and will contain a great amount of information on the subject which will be entirely new. The party started from Salt Lake City in April, and pursued their investigations until late in November. An actual census of the Indians was taken, and where heretofore 36,000 had been sup- posed to exist but 8,000 were found. The comtnis- sion visited 66 tribes, examined into their condition and made agreements with the members to go on reservations next year. The commissioners have selected three reservations—one in East Utah, of 60,000 acres, capable of cultivation; one in Soutn- ern Idaho of the same size, and one in Nevada of 10,000 acres. They will make the following recom- mendations for the civilization of these Indians :- First—Their concentration on the reservations. Second—Provide them with jarming implements, Third—Pay them tor work periormed, ‘vurth—issue no food or clothing to them as a gratuity. Fisth—The lands on the reservations to be held in commonaity until such time as may be thought practicable to give them in severaity. Sizth—Appoint surgeons for each reservation, so as to break the power of the magicians, who now wield too much infiuence, Seventh—Build schools and furnish teachers. Kighth—Erect houses and prohibit the use of tents for habitation. It 18 proposed to tarnish raw material, instead of ready made clothing, and to teach the Indians how to spin and weave and to make their own clothing. Ortgin of the Independent Pow of the Cuban Captains Genera One of General Sickles’ last official acts was to obtain from the Spanish government the author- ity under which the captains general of Cuba have had the absolute right tu treat persons and prop- erty there as if it were a territory in a state of atege, and also to suspend the execution of com- mand or instruction emanating from the nome government. The extraordinary powers granted by Ferdinand VIL are the prerogatives that have made the captains general of Cuba independent of the home government at Madrid, and have proved So fatal to the rights and interests of citizens of the United States on that bans ROYAL His Mi heing full persuaded no time. and’ nades wo iy pera cee) whatever is there any ponsibiity of vt weakening’ the Fela tad of rectitude ana of love to his royal tad Tie Maleaty wi characteriae xour Excellency, and Deing desirous at the same time to guard against the inconveniences which might arise in ee cases rom @ division of commands, and trom the complexity of powers and attributions in the respective po posts, and with the es object of main’ in your most pi nis legitimate severe! cao a and public rane quillity, has been in conformity with the advice of his Couhelt of sl of Ministers to give Your Excellency full authorization, pom | upon you all the powers which by the royal nances are granted %, the governors of cities In a State of siege (plazas sitiados), In consequence of this His Majesty aves Your Excellency a ro and unlimited authorizauon, not merely to from the isiand and send to the gegen any = lic functionaries, whatever may be their rank, class or condition, whose stay in the may be prejudicial, or whose public or inead conduct may arouse your suspicion, replacing them i ereey by the ithiul’ servitors jesty) who may merit all Your Bxceligney 8 comfaenoe; also to execution any or in e any of the branches or the administration as Your Excellency may expedient the service, such suspensions being in ali cases pro- vistonal, and Your Excellency bei required to give account thereof to His jesty.

MaDRID, May 23, 1825, Economy by the New System of Comput- ing Castoms, and Rules for the Re= form of the Revenue Service, Under the act of March 3, 1873, the Secretary of the Treasury is required to prociaim on the Ist of January of each year the value in American gold dollars of foreign coins of standard weight and fineness, as estimated by the Director of the Mint at Washington. Tne prociamation of this year, the first under the new law, has been delayed until the Attorney General can render an opinion on the question whether the yearly estimates of the Director of the Mint, when proclaimed by the Secretary, are to govern custom house oficers in the reduction of foreign invoices of dutiable mer- chandise to United States money of account, which, by iaw, is the standard gold doliar of the United States, or whether those officers are to continue to change foreign into American money in the computation of duties at the rates fixed by various acts of Congress and running back for many years, These old valuations are based on assays made at the Mint of foreign coins in actual circulation, nearly all of which, by ordinary wear or through slight inaccuracies of coining operations, were below standard weight, and were, therefore, estimated by the assaying oficers at something less than the true standard value. In the French franc, for example, the assayed value is over four per cent less than the standard value, and the government has lost that percentage on ail duties collected on French goods fora number of years. Other commercial nations, whose coins were assayed when their coinage was of silver, have changed thejr coinage w gold, which gives @ greater intrinsic value to the amounts expressed in invoices, If these in- voices were to be reduced to Untted States money at the old valuations the government would suffer an appreciable loss of revenne, It was to provide @gainst such losses that the sct of March 3, 1873, was procured by the Treasury Department, but the failure of Congress to make the repeal- ing clause of the law sufficiently positive led the department to apprehend trouble in enforcing the new standards of value, and hence the submission ofthe question to the Attorney General. That officer’s opinion sustains the Treasury construc- tion of the law, apd prociamation will be sorth- coming inafew days. As foreign coins are not now, as they were formerly, legal tendersin the United States it becomes manifest, on an examina- tion of the question, that if the custom houses were intended to continue operations under the old laws the act of last March would have no defi- nite practical operation, The government will gain about $2,000,000 a year on customs duties, and the importing interest will have an averagé of three-quarters of one per cent added to the gross cost of their goods. The new general regu- lations of the Treasury Department concerning the customs and navigation laws are in print and Will shortly be issued to the custom houses, They contain a great deal of new matter, based upon the numerous laws passed since the last edition of 1857, especially with reference to the prevention of smuggling by way oi Canada. An attempt has been made to simpiilty some of the most complex and vexatious features of cus- tom house. surveillance over shipping and mer- chandise, but with poor success, owing to the ne- cessity of conforming to a long series of clumsy and conflicting statutes, passed in the triple in- terests of revenue protection and perquisites, An effort to improve the system of appointment, pro- motion and tenure of office in the subordinate grades of customs officers has succeeded on paper, though the practical effect remains to be seen. Secretary Richardson has introduced some old- fashioned New England economy in the work, by directing that oMcial correspondence shall be con- ducted on & mmimum quantity of paper of fair domestic quality, and that plain printed headings Shall replace any existing extravagances in litho- graphed headings, fancy rulings, textures and colors of writing paper, while private supplies of initialled and monogramed stationery at the pubiic cost are prohibited. In another part of the book customs officers are informed that it is their duty to warn innocent persons against vio- lating the customs laws and regulations, through mattention or ignorance—a plain intimation to the swarm of customs officiais who thrive by petty persecutions, intimidations and feecings of unin- tentional offenders, The Senate Judiciary Committee. The Senate Judiciary Committee have had sev- eral meetings during the recess at the residence of Senator Edmunds, and considered the Bankrupt bill, Yesterday they met at the Capitol, and fur- ther discussed that measure, with the view of per- fecting and reporting it to the Senate at an early day. Decisions by the Mexican and United States Claims Commission. The United States and Mexican Commission has now resumed its business, and will doubtless dis- pose of all the cases on the docket by the expira- tion of its extended term. Within the last two months the Commissioners have decided at least 100 cases, including an adverse decision in the case of Daniel E. Wopdhouse against Mexico, known as the Tehuantepec claim, in which the peti- tioner stated the amount of damages at over $500,000,000, The claim of Mexico for $27,000,000 on account of damages from Indian in- cursions is now in the hands of Sir Edward Thorn- ton, the umpire, the American and Mexican Com- missioners being divided in opinion, Mexico claims that under the treaty of Guadaloupe Hi- dalgo the United States pledged themselves to for- cibly restrain Indian incursions into her territory, and that whenever snch raids could not be prevented the Indians should be punished by our government and “satisfaction for the same exacted.” The United States, on the contrary, insist that our government could not promise to do for Mexico more than it was re, guired to do for its own citizens, and, therefore, no damages could be claimed. Should, as is re- ported, the umpire decide against Mexico in the pending case, Mexico will present the same prin- ciple a8 an answer to the United States for claims of damages to citizens of Texas growing out of the incursions of Mexicans into that State on the Rio Grande border. — ALLEGED INCENDIARISM.
