PaNaMa, May 29, 1874, In fhe absence of political excitement the people ‘the Isthmus, and more particularly of Panama, we turned their attention to matters of public ity, Agriculture is looking up a littie and the roods are being ransacked for cedar and other ids of timber for the purposes of export. At resent public attention is most engaged by the weeping changes that are taking place in the per- of the Panama Railroad and other matters feonnected. with that undertaking, Every one, however, looks for an improvement and feels Wonvinced that the directors of that important enterprise in New York have at last come to re- its working and relations to the commercial Bou im their true light.

The plan was not then car- ied ont, irom some political opposition to the ad- (ministration. Sincethen another great fire has Occurred, and thrown discredit on those men who ‘go barefacedly sacrificed the public welfare to tical animosity. On the inst.

SyRacusg, June 7, 1874, The elements had a literal war yesterday, and @ large number of buildings were unroofed, chimneys blown down and trees uprooted, while the water descended as though the floodgates of heaven had been opened. The stormon the Onondaga Lake was terrible to contemplate. It is reported that several lives were lost, A party of six men were out in the sailboat Chalienge. Seeing the storm coming they attempted to go ashore, but the wind struck them and their sails were torn into ahreds. They were goon after capsized when about a quarter ofa mile from the shore, but successfully landed after some effort. This same org tong they saw & boat containing an old man and two young ladies, who were cap- sized. The ladies have not been neard (rom. A young man was also drowned, A number of boats were picked up empty in the ‘west shore of the lake, and the probability is that the bodies of those who mig4t have been drowned path be found there too, when they come to the surface.

Opening of the Campaign This Week— The Hope of Democracy in the Rural Districts—The Quaker City Joined to Its Idols—The Chances of Present Po- tien! Aspirants for Congress and the Judiciary. PHILADELPHIA, June 7, 1874. The selection of delegates, which occurs at the close of the present week, for the regular Dem- ocratic State Convention, formally opens the gen- eral political campaign. In nearly all the districts there are many seeking the same appointment, and the contest bids fair to be lively and exciting. ‘Those wno are indifferent spectators of political contentions understand tuat the democrats labor under no other disadvantages half so great as the counter interests anda differences which exist among themselves, DEMOCBATIC DIVISION, In the first place the fact is established that certain democratic leaders are in league with their party opponents, while it ts equally patent that the country districts regularly oppose any measure or any man proposed by the delegates from Philadelphia. In no manner has this last statement been better corroborated than in the last State Convention, held at Wilkesbarre. A furious wrangle occurred first over the salary ‘ab, in wi Congressman Spear 0 bitterly lenounced that he left the room, and next over the claims of rival delegates, each of whom, openly and above board, accused the other of cor- ruption and traud. This Convention was probably the most bitter ana yehemeny that has ever been hela in the State. one pur pose,; however, and that was to con- vince resent that Philadelpbia was the last place on earth to look for a jocratic victory; this. being 80, the country delegates are aa indisposed to pay any attention to her Yoice as they would be were she aitogether without the limits of the State. While all admit that the Convention to be held in Harrisburg during the month of August, will be a Scene of the most antagonistic interests in con- fict, the prevailing opinion seems to be that Mr. James R, Ludiow will meet with unanimous ap- proval as candidate for THE OFFICE OF SUPREME JUDG Despite this general opinion, however, a shrewd political sheet may not, perhaps, be so far from the truth, when it says:—As far as regaras Judge Ludiow, a young man from the country may step in, after the fashion of Judge Gordon, and upset every calculation.” At the last Convention the candidates tor the Supreme Judgeship were ex- ceedingiy numerous, and in this fight, as in all the othe: the country delegates and the delegates from Philade!phia held opinions diametrically op- posite, so that it was only aiter hours and haurs of bitter and denunciatory debate, and the holding of at least twenty baliots that anything like a unani- mous choice could be arrived at. ‘the same fight is likely to be renewed. CONGRESSIONAL ASPIRANTS, The struggle between rival candidates seeking the nomination jor Congress has already begun, and large litho: hic prints o! their faces adorn: all the outhouse: id stonewalls of the suburbs. In the First District of the city the following entlemen seek the nomination for Congress:— lexander B. Cutler, Coapman Freeman, Colonel D. B, Branson, George H. Smith and Thomas Cockerill.

WASHINGTON. Republican Dismay at the President’s Financial Action. SIGNIFICANT CRITICISMS. Democratic Complacency and Commendation. Are We Drifting Toward the “Third Term ?” WAsmInoTon, June 7, 187% The President's Financial Thunder bolt—Dissatisfaction Widely Spread Among Republicans—Savage Criticisms of the Memorandum—The Democrats Complacent, ‘The publication of the President's tatest views Om finance caused the greatest excitement among members of Congress, without regard to party. It waa the one subject of talk in the House yester- day, and though the Senate was not in session many of the Senators were on the floor of the House exchanging views with members, Con- versation, was free in tone, and the epithets used in most instances were such as are excluded from print. The Speaker, who has been zealously working to harmonize conflicting views in the hope of shaping a bill which would be acceptable to the President, gave expression to his opinion in @ monosyllabie:—“Wild! wild!’ “Would you vote for a bill embodying the President's views?” asked tne Speaker of Mr. Conger, of Michigan. “I donot feel at liberty to decide until I have consulted Jones," was the answer, which immediately became famous throughout the House. The memorandum Was called “The royal proclamation,” ‘“Repudia- tion made easy” and “I bid for the third term.” Said Nesmith, of Oregon, to Speaker Blaine, “Grant has flanked your prospects for tne Presidency for the next term,” and Judge Jewett, of Columbus, Onto, who has been spoken of as the next Prest- dept of the Erie road, added, “And Thurman’s too.” “Now, let Grant veto the Civil Rights bill,’” remarked a‘ Simon Pure democrat, ‘and we will Tun him as our candidate for the Presidency next time.’’ While the democrats applauded the Presl- dent's views as sound democratic doctrine they | did not approve of the manner in which he had endeavored to forestall the action of the House by an “advance veto message,” as they called it. In conversation with over 100 members of the House, representing all shades of financial opinion, not one spoke respectfully of the President’s course. The conservative clement among republicans irom the ‘West, heretofore moderate in expressing opinion about the veto of the Finance bill, are now out- spoken in their denunciations, and declare the time has come when a rupture must be made with the President; that he has been controlled all along by the wealthy bankers, who are his inti- mate friends, ana that it was ih exceedingly bad taste to communicate his views through a Senator whose colossal ‘ortune is made up of gold and sil- ver minea It was only another evidence of his amMliation with capitalists and a want of regard for the laboring element of the country. In this connection tt was astonishing how the fear of a ‘third term loomed up. Members who never before thought or spoke on the sub- ject except with indecision calmly and seriously talked about it as though it were a foregone con- clusion. Your correspondent overheard an Illinois member of prominence say that with the office- holding element, a vast civil service army, the powerful combination of the national banks and wealthy merchants and capitalists throughout the country, @ third nomination was not so preposter- ous as he had all along supposed. “You see,” he -continued, “this money question has developed the subject in a new light, and one can now realize what Greeley saw during the iast Presi- dential campaign. It is- not the strength of the republican party we fear; it is the moneyed tn- filuenves of the country.’’ Mr. MoCrary, of Iowa, Chairman of the Committee on Railways and anals, who led the transportation question through the House, emphatically de- clered that the President’s course would do more to disrupt the republican party than all the grangera inthe country. He said the manner of communicating and the matter communicated, was offensive inthe extreme. The New England members are divided, some sustaining the views of the President, while others condemn the act. Pennsylvania is aroused, The Reciprocity Treaty, with the President’s obstinacy on finance, arrays her representatives against him. The Southern republicans give up ail hope of their strength through fear of a veto of the Civil Rights bill. The plan now is to stick to the report of the Conlerence Committee, but here again comes up an obstacle of great proportions. The party is not a unit on the subject of finance. The Easterh members are for specie payment, the Western and Southern for more currency; this issue is inevitably a division in the party, the agricultural sections arrayed against the manufacturing and commercial sec- tions, The Result of the Labors of the Con- ference Committee on the Finances— The Compromise to be Reported—The New Party Looming Up in the Future. The Conference Committee on the Finance will neat at ten o’ctock to-morrow, for, it is believed, the last ‘time for Amancial discussion. Senator Morton states that they wilt agree on a report and present it to the Senate at once, and though ne does not state tte »particulars Of what It will be, owing to the o' mn of secrecy which the com- mittee have uselessly taken, it can be stated that they will essentially consist of those already men- tioned in these despatcnes as to what would con- stitute the basis of their agreement. From Sena- tor Morton's positive manner it is evident that he |.and a majority of the committee have come to the conclusion that it is Inexpedient to consume any more time in the endeavor to effect a unanimous | decision as to what 1s best to be done. In conced- | ing to the thirty-seven anda half per cent limit of the proposed retirement of greenbacks and the non-disturbance of the reserves of the country banks now held in New York, with the acceptance of the present series of the four, four and ahalf and five per cent bonds, Senator Morton and those concurring with him, vis., Senator Merrimon, Messrs. Farwell and Maynard, think that they have gone as far ac they are justified, in a spirit of com- promise. Senator Sherman does not concur, nor does Mr. Olymer in this belief, the former insisting onagreenback retirement of at least forty per cent and the fixing of the date of specie resump- tionin January, 1877. The report made by the Conference Committee which can be brought in at any time asa privileged question, will pass the Senate and the House. This is more especially insisted upon as likely tobe the result at once because, since the promulgation of the memoran- dum letter of the President to Senator Jones, those favoring expansion are infused with 8 positiveness and unflinching determination toact at once tn this direction and to allow the measure to take ite chances with the President. Both in the Senace and the House the expansion- ists are “ap in arms” against the President, and If he will veto what will result from the Conference Committee deliberations, they say witn one accord, “Let bim then take the responsibility of what is to occur.” This will take shape should Congress ad- Journ without being enabied to complete a pro- ductive action providing relief to the finances, in the prompt inauguration of steps to organize a new party antagonistic to President Grant, | his administration and the office holders, whom they charge with being secretly en- gaged in the planning and concocting of } Schemes to run him, with the aid of the disaffected democrats and what is known as the silent vote, for a third term. The range of tinan- cial views is as unbounded as heretofore. The ‘caucus which has been called for eight o'clock to-morrow evening by the Acting President of the Senate and the Speaker of the House ts for the Purpose of political consultation as to the conduct of the coming fall campaigns. The proceedings are expected tw partake of a very lively, if not an eventtul, character. When the report of the Con- ference Committee on the Finances is presented there is strong probability that pertinent, if not unfriendly, allusion will be made to the Presiden- Uial-Jones letter, unless the debate goes over until after the caucus, at which party discipline may Provide @ preventive by compact. Criminal Immigration to the United States- Correspondence with the State Departments of Foreign Countries Our Government to Rosist the Imposi- tion. It appears from a communication from the Sec- retary of State that the involuntary deportation to the United States by foreign officials of foreign convicts, and of foreign paupers, idiots, insane persons and others incapable of supporting them- selves, has frequently been made the subject of oficial correspondence, This objectionable prac- tice has been the subject of oficial correspondence in previous administrations, as well as during the present administration, It appears trom the correspondence recently transmit to the House of Representatives that on the 0@ March, 1869, Mr. Bancroit, United States Minister at Berlin, was informed that the De- partment of State had received unoMcial informa- tion that a society of Israeiites had bsen organized for: the purpose of sending vhe poor of their race and religion to this country. Mr. Bancroft replied that he believed’ no such emi- grants had. been sent who were not able ad willing to work. In August, 1871, Mr. Rublee, the Minister Resident of the United States at Berne, transmitted to the department a corre- spondence with the Federal Council of Switzer- land respecting an alleged practice of forwarding paupers and imbecile persons to this country by the communal authorities of the canton of Argo- vie. In his despatch Mr. Rublee stated there was strong ground at one time for the belief that paupers, or persons destitute of pecuniary means and without the ability to earn a subsistence, had been shipped at the public expense, by a commune of that canton. Mr. Rablee interfered witn such effect that an incurable idiot, shipped by an emigrant agent, was prevented from coming to the United Staves. The Presi- Gent of the Swiss Confederation spoke warmly im reprobation of the injustice and inhumanity of such am attempt to throw upon another country the charge of a man in this alleged condition. In November, 1871, the department called the atten- tion of General Schenck, at London, to an alleged attempt on the part of the Liverpool select vestry to send to the United States a certain number of pauper children, in pursuance of a scheme of emi- gration which had already commenced, and he was instructed to inquire into the matter and report. General Schenck replied that the matter had already attracted his attention and had been made the subject of a formal communication to Lord Granville, and that the shipment of the children had been suspended, if not entirely abpandonea. In December, 1871, and January, 1872, the department, in- structing General Schenck respecting three Persons who were recently released of unexpired terms of imprisonment, to which they had been sentenced for criminal offences, and sent to the United States; and tn February, 1873, he was in- structed to inquire into the casea of other con- victs from British prisons, who, it was said, had been sent to this country. In October, 1872, Mr. Bancroft called the attention of the government of the Grand Duke of Hesse toa statement in the German newspapers that a crimtnal named Johann Stauf, under sentence of imprisonment for life for murder, arson and robbery, had been pardoned on condition of his emigration to America, The fact was not denied, but in consequence of the correspondence oficial assurance was given “that the Grand Ducal goy- ernment of Hesse had adopted the resolution in case ofpardon to abstain hereafter from making the emigration of the crffhinal to America a con- dition.” The German Minister, having been interrogated by the Secretary of State, dented, in December, 1872, that two Ger- man criminals had been sent to the United States. Investigations into several other similar cases elsewhere showed the reports to be untrue. In December, 1872, the Secretary of State informed Minister Marsh at Rome that the Commu sioners of Emigration at New York complained that a large number of emigrants irom Italy had recently landed there, most of whom were 3o destitute that they must become a@ burden, and that itappeared that these persons had been in- duced to embark for America by extrava- gant promises of certain emigration agents. The italian Minister for Foreign Affairs, in reply to representations made by Mr. Marsh,. under these instructions, thanked Mr. Marsh for his efforta to check the frauds upon emi- grants by private agents and enclosed a copy of a circular from the italian Minister of the Interior to tne different prefects of the Kingdom of Italy, in order to put a stop to “immoral speculations of agents and illegal emigration brought about by them.” In April last Count Corti, the Italian Min- ister at Washington, transmitted to the depart- ment the text of a law promulgated in Italy tor the purpose of preventing improper emigration, especially of children, and inquired whether the government of the United States coula co-operate in its execution or could take steps for that pur- pose, either by agreeing upon additional articles to the existing treaty of extradition or otherwise. Appropriation Bills Made Laws and Appropriation Bills in Progress—Con- sultation to Expedite . Business—The Dey of Adjournment. The Fortification, the Naval, Military Academy and, Consular and Diplomatic Appropriation bills have become laws. The Army bill, the Executive, propriation bili are in conference. The Deficiency Appropriation bill has been reported back to the House on disagreeing amendments. The Post OmMce Appropriation bill and the Rtver and Harbor Appropriation bill have passed the House, but nave not yet been considered in the Senate. Tne Pension bili has passed both houses, and is now with the Committee on Appropriations on a Senate amendment. The bill making appropriations for sundry civil expenses (known as the Omnibus bill) has veen reported to the House, It appropriates $23,605,613, The bill of last @year appropriated $32,186,000—a difference of $8,680,000, The appropriation for public build. ings under the supervision of the Architect of the Treasury for construction, paving, grading, vaults, safes, furniture, fixtures, pay of custodians, jant- tors, &c., is $7,670,000, or about $2,600,000 less than was appropriated last year. Senators Carpenter and Edmands were at work yesterday and to-day, going over the calendar of the Senate, with a view of selecting such bills as it is necessary to act upon during the present session, and throwing out those which can go over until the next, Be- sides the remaining general appropriation bills there are others of an important public character requiring action, including the bill for the distri- bution of the Geneva award. The majority of the House Committece on the Judiciary have provided in their bill for indemnification to the assured for war premiums patd, not deducting for any pay- ment on account of losses which he might secure for the underwriters, because, as they say, he would receive back nothing of the war premium in such payment. But the minority—Messrs, Potter, Tremain, Poland and Jewett—take the ground that the money was collected for particular losses on particular vessels, and those premiums have no more relation to this fund and no more claim upon it than the losses of a man in Louisiana or Arkansas because of the war. Such identical claims for increased war premiums were presented by our government to the tribunal at Geneva, They were considered by that tribunal and re- jected, as not claims that could be recovered under the treaty.
