In Ibc opinion of many , ol our beat alateamen It does not appear lo be a wise nit— uie to apply it to the total exlingnlshineal of the public debt, t and there arc certainly reasons why it is i desirable, to let a portioo at least, of the national debt remain for tbe preset, or lo other words it seems to be* good thing 1 for tbe government to have creditors to long aa it is abundantly able to pay its debts. The suggestions of President Arthur, in his message lo Congress, tn regard lo building and equipping a navy worthy of our great nation, and the proper fortification of our sea board cilie*. are good ones, and mooe^ appropriated for three pin ji ma would be well spent and meet vrtlh general approval.

A large delegation of FbTladripbism went to Washington io the Inter, en of the Quaker City, but their influence wee unavailing, and they returned home convinced that eilk Hire and bine badges ' will not always make votn. The decision of the New Jersey Court . of Appeals lo tbe Atlantic Land Company's suit, settles Anally that when a man i has bought tbe land flown to the high water line, he la the . owner of the line, however far the water may recede.

Senator Edmunda was early to Ae field ; with a bill calculated to protect the colored raoe to iu Crmgltnlincal rights. This will' probably bring shoot a long debate ! of a sectional cbffiacter. Senator Blair c presented a petition for a 1'ootUAtlcv.a! ' amendment prohibiting Ac manufacture 1 of distilled liquors, tor useful pur- " poses. Senator Butler Introduces a 1 measure providing lor the repeal of all 1 internal revenue laws, and Mr. Hard has 3 s mean re which it to remove tbe duty ' from Imports of salt, wool, and lumber. It is Ae expectation that any bill Cairo, lated to affect Ae tariff will be delayed until after Ae holiday recast, nod will 5 then cone from the Ways tod Means " Committee of Ae House, which ha* con. _ trol of this important branch of busi1 Ibe Presidt-nr.
