10 ~ WASHINGTON. RENE! (F THB REPUBLICAN DEMAGOGUES. | THE FINANCIAL BUGBEAR,," PACIFIC MAIL LOBBY EXPOSURES AT HAND. (QUGHT OF SUPPRAGE iN THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA. FROM OUR SPECIAL CORRESPONDENT. Waswinaton, Dec. 17, 1874 MtM@Z REPUBLICAN DILEMMA—HINIS AND POSSI- BILITIES. ‘When Congress met the republicans found each «ther in @ very doloyops state of mind. They were a party beaten at whe elections and without waders; an administration party without confi- dence in the administration; a party divided upon | the most important and pressing questions, with factions apparently ready to mutiny against the Qret attempt at controi, and with ap administra- ‘en by no means a unit on some vital questions, and neither administration nor party prepared to sontrive or to support @ policy. Nor did the means of a closer union seem attain- able. In the first place, though the President is | pon reasonably good terms with most of the mem- bers of his parry, it is felt that be likes to nave his own way; that be does not heed good advice if it conflicts with the wishes of his personal iriends, and that unfortunately it does often so confict; what under these circumstances the President is sometimes a little bored with his political adhe- rents, and that these are made to feel that they are, 80 to speak, not in the same boat with him— er, More precisely, that he does not think himself ‘to be in the same boat with them. Next, it 1s said here by republicans that, though , he has some able men in his Cabinet, General Grant has in some way deprived tnem of their imitiative.” The Cabinet are, like his military Jamily during the war, his subordinates. He does mot expect to be moved by their advice. He looks to them ro attend each to his own portfolio, and im considering the general political tuture they | Rave but little influence over his judgment. He even approves in his Message the suggestions of this or the other Secretary, and thus separates himeelf from the Minister. It is as though he médorsed a Treasury report over to Congress, in | @ilitary style, “approved and respectfully recom- mended for action.” This view 13 probably correct, but it | results that the administration does not | stand before the country as one man, but asa | more or less heterogeneous collection. But to | Save themselves irom a iatal and final overthrow the republicans need to be firmly united; and, Mdeed, they need the help of ail whom they can | ‘win back from the liberal republican side. This | 4s felt 80 strongiy that one of the Washington Journals has been for some days crying out to ®peaker Biaine to come down out of bis enair and | take command. Itis @ pretty compliment to the | Speaker, who, indeed, appears to be the only man eapable of leadership that tne party has, and, no | doubt, he is considering his best course. Mean- | time others of the leading men appear stb to imagine that investigating jobs May save the party, forgetting that if there are Jove to be exposed they will dirty only the repub- Means, and that, afer all, the party ts in disgrace, | Rot for jobbery—or, at least, not for Congressionai | jobbery—but for ineMciency. The indictment against the republicans reads | that they have not yet, ten years after the close of | she war, quieted the Southern States nor put the eurrency on a sound basis. To these charges they plead—first, that the South will not be quiet, aad, @econd, that the people are net of one mind on the currency question. Bat this is to plead the baby act. It ts rightly amawered that a party in power has duites and | Fesponsibilities, snd that a party which has so long bad so great a majority | eannot evaae these. If one party in tne | State confesses that the diMculty of govern- ing is too great the people wili have to cry an- other. If the republicans are to regain the confidence anc support of the ocuntry they must first of all cast loose from the South, The Soutuern States | must be permitted like the Northern to rule them- | selves on all local affairs. The war has been a | thing of the past nearly ten years; why should the federal administration make any dif- ference between Louisiana and Pennsylvania or Arkansas and New York? “But in that case we shall jose the whole South. I! we take our hands | of the Gemocrats will cajole or coerce the negroes, and make the whole Soutb democratic.” ‘This is | the reply of the average republican when sucha > suggestion ie made to him. That is to say, he | eapnot bear to jose the negro vote. But if he | were a wise man he would see that it is better to | earry the North than the South; that if the condi- tion of affairs in the South is as bad as the average | Fepublican asserts, to leave the Southern States to themselves would be to put a very grave ‘responsi- bility upon the democrats there, and, perhaps, to | #0 alarm the North that in two years it would throw a solid vote lor the republicans, out of Sear of what might happen, or of resentment for What bad meantime happened under unobstructed @emocratic rule in the Southern States. At pres- | ent the people justly nold the republican jeaders responsible for the disorders in the Sonth; but if ‘these should abandon all interference they would throw a very grave and embarrassing responsi- | bility upon the Southern democrats. No douit at | the next election the democrats would carry at | Jeast fourteen out of the sixteen Southern States; but meantime, unless they were extraordinarily guccessiul in re-establishing order and restraining | the violent, ignorant whites, they would ran the | ries of uniting the Northern States almost solidly against the democratic party. But it seems, for the present at least, that on | this point the state of tne average repubiiean | mind is hopeless, and on this rock the party is | A measure of currency reform | likely to founder, will be agreed upon before long, and it is now Probable that the party will sapport it as a unit, The only doubtful point about It is that several Senators are said to have the preparation of this measure ip charge, and what they produce may be so ingeniously Calculated to please all views as to be worthless. ‘The prospects of the republicans just now are Sherefore not briltant If they should determine on a sound policy {t is not certain yet if they could get for it the strong ama determined admtn- ‘stration support which would bring up iaggards and make the party s unit. Meantime the democrats look on with more or Jess indifference, and with too much. They are mot responsibie in Congress; but they seem to for- wet that in the country they might and ought to 00 some things to strengthen themseives. If the Wresident should presently call to him Senator Schurz, Senator Fenton and a few other promi- ent i¢aders of the liberals, and persuade them to ‘cept important places in the administration, democrats would ses that they had lost an epporiunity.

FROM OUR. REGULAR CORRESPONDENT. | WasHinGron, Dec. 17, 1874, SCANDALOUS PACIFIC MAIL EXPOSURES ANTICI- PATED—IMPORTANT TESTIMONY BY InWIN— THE MYSTERIES OF THE LOBBY, ‘The heaith of Mr. Irwin was so far improved to- day that he was able to devote several hours to an examination by the sub-Committee of the Ways until the committee are ready to give out the tes- timony in full, Mr. Irwin was obliged to recline upon & sola. and near the end showed signs of | valuable witness too closely at present, There was a better understanding between the committee and Mr. Irwin, who nar- Tated, with little questioning, his frat connection with the Pacific Mail Steamship Com- pany and how and why he entered upon the task Of securing the subsidy; but it is understood that the committee did not reach the important point of how the money was disbursed, reserving that until there is @ better acquaintance be- tween the witness and bis exammers. Mr. Dawes did most of the questioning to-day, and he and Mr, Beck both deciared that manner, while Mr. Kasson expressed himsel/ a3 perfectly satisfed with the sincerity of Mr. Ir- wWin’s intention to aid the committee in getting at the bottom of matters. Mr. irwin, when he got fairly warmed to the work, offered as a part of his preierred by Trevor W. Park and Russell Sage, which he put in his sworn statement. it sober it as upon might contain assertions which, reflection, would not be sus- tained. Mr. Irwin replied that not = that habit; even under the greatest emotion, though in 6 state of excitement he might be led to tell too much truth. No; he wanted the answer to the charges of ever having had anything whatever to do with corruption in- corporated as sworn testimony. It had never been sworn to before, and it was time to begin the fight in earnest. Mr. Ir- win's exact language was ‘To meet squarely the general insinuation which underlies all these details, I say that everything 1 have which in any way representa money that ever belonged to the Pacific Mail Steamship Company, I own by virtue of written contracts, of which the rendered, Ali the money paid me by the Pacific Mail Steamship Company in connection with the subsidy was applied by me precisely in the manner and for the purposes imtenaed by the company—namely, in compensation for ser- vices which resulted in the donation to that com- Dany of $5,000,000, and which were rendered by many persons, including @ number of gentiemen of talent and experience, who were necessarily engaged during three or four years.” At this point the examination became interest- ing. admitting that he employed “gentlemen of taient and experience,” the committee will to- morrow resume the examination, and, if possible, find out who the parties are who have been pro- fessiona! lobbyists, buying and selling the votes of members of Congress, and whose services, as Mr. Irwin to-day said, were of such vaine that nobody had ever suggested that they snould render them | grataitously, or even cheaply, any more than do the gentlemen who now serve the Pacific Mail Steamship Company. Of the fact that the subsidy was lobbied through Mr. Irwin made no disguise, and in speaking of an _ aillegatton he had paid money to & member of the Appropriation Committee of the Forty, second Congress, he said that he knew | personally that the gentleman strenuously op- posed the subsidy, and his vote was not io be had for money; consequently he did not attempt to influence him, nor did he allow anyone to sell that vote to him. But another phase of the lobby rather astonished members of the committee when they were informed that there was also another lobby in which at least one Senator was pecuniarily interested 1p opposing the passage of the bill granting the subsidy. Mr, Irwin has rented commodions quarters, fisted up two rooms for offices, engaged steno graphers and clerks, and was to-day reinforced by his private secretary. out if tt takes until the 4th of next March. When asked if he would answer the leading questions put by the committee he said he could not now say, but would decide when the time came. It was the old story of crossing the river, and there would be plenty to worry over before the committee finished ite labors, As further evi- dence of his determination to devote himself to the exposure, he says that at his request his broth- er-in-law and wife’s sister-in-law wiil leave for Paris to-morrow to join Mrs. Irwin there and keep ber company, that he may give his undivided at- tention to the snccessful igsue of the contest. STRONG OPPOSITION IN THE SENATE TO THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA BILL. The Steamboat bill was permitted to go over | in the Senate this afternoon, at the suggestion | of Mr. Boutwell, and the consideration of the Dis- trict of Columbia bill was resumed. Mr. Morton opened a vigorous attack upon it because of its curtatiment of the suffrage privilege. He pro- nounced it anti-democratic and anti-republican. | As the debate on the bill advances it becomes more evident as the objections to it are met that its fate is very doubtful. Mr. Morrill, of | Maine, wno devoted nearly ail the summer months to preparing tl:e bill, {s thought to have put too | much Of theory and too little of what is practical in 1%. | THE HOLIDAY ADJOURNMENT AND THE APPRO- PRIATION BILLS, It is believed that on Monday nex the House | wih agree to a jotnt resoiution, adjournmg on Tuesday, the 22d, until January 4. Mr. Garfeid has been anxious to get through with the Legis- lative Appropriation bull before the holiday recesa, and the work thus far indicates success. To-day was spent in making speeches on the appropriation for the support of the Bureau of Education, the democratic members contend- ing that Congress has no right t support such a bureau, inasmuch as the masver of education is Ot a nationai but a State affair. To-morrow the time will be occupied tn receiv | Ing the King anc, possibly, in discussing the pri- vate calendar. THE VICKSBURG INVESTIGATION TO BEGIN KEXT WEEK.

The Panama route bas many advocates, among them some of the first engineers of this country and Europe. The route ts claimed to be shorter than any other, and the elevation leas by several hundred feet. Besides, the Chagres River furnishes avundance of water for all purposes. If the canal should ve located om this route the Panama Railroad could be used to facilitate the work of its construction.
