EDITORIAL LETTER.
- Wasnino'rox, March 9, 1873.:
The absorbing event of the week of course
has been the Inauguration ceremonies. The
closing scenes of any Congress are always
intensely exciting. The anxiety of parties
who have claims or personal interest in
measures clogged in the gorged hopper at
the close of Congress would be amusing did
it not so often awaken oue's deepest sympa-
thies. .
The Legislation of the 42d Congress, as a
whole,will be passed upon by the people,
we think, as wise and beneficial. The
voting ot a million and a half dollars out of
the treasury for increase on back pay
to members, we think will be severely
criticised. We are of those, however, who
believe that $0,000 per annum pay is not
too much for a Senator or Representative
worthy the position. It was claimed by
Senator Chandler that $5,000 was enough
for the “average“ congressman. This may
be measurably true, and if so, better pay
ought to furnish better men; The plea for
economy made by the Michigan Senator,
Was badly riddled by Gen. Logan, who got
out the admission that he (Senator C.) could
not live here for $20,000 per annum. The
difficulty, after all, is with the people them-
selves. When _the “average” constituent
visits his member, he doesn’t want to hunt
him through some dark alley or desolate
garret. For the constituent’s comfort and
complaicency when he chooses to visit
Washington, the member must keep house
and “receive,” or be at a hotel or first-class
boardinghouse, where the “social distinc-
tions of good society” shall not reproach or
ostracize the honored Representative. Now
we personally know that $20 per month,
twenty-three years ago, purchased us b'etter
table fare and room accommodations than
$175 does now. \Ve recall when Webster
and Clay were deemed extravagantfor pay-
ing a dollar a day for rooms rind board, and
when Mrs. Hyatt, on the avenue, one of the
best houses in the city and longasort of
headquarters for Connecticut and New
England members, provided for her guests
at $5 per week. Now, five dollars per day
would not purchase equally good accommo-
WW
anagram'silIW-fii '
to just Criticism. Yet, whenever the pay
has been raised heretofore, it has only been
carried by the aid of outgoing members.
In this case 103 voted for the increased pay
in the House and 95 against, and'62 of them
are not re-elected members, and most prob-
ably leave Congress forever. Of the ycas
53 are Republicans and 50 Democrats and
Liberals, so that a majority of the total neg-
ative vote was Republican. But political
distinctions and party lines had lessto do
with it-than the pressing pecuniary necessi-
lies of. many members. Some are now of
necessity awaiting this extra payment to
settle bills and leave town with their
families. Connecticut was solid in both
Houses against the ante date of the increase.
Gen. Nye satirized this action, in his own
inimitable style, by saying, “we’ve stolen
five thousand dollars a piece out of the
treaSury, and uowwe’ll expel Patterson to
show the country that we mean to be vir-
tuousJ’ Despite the satire, the General
found himself earnestly supporting the in-
crease.
The departure of Mr. Colfax from the
Vice President’s chair had a little touch of
the pathetic. .His address was rattled oil“
with apparent nervousness, and when he
gave the gavel into Mr. Wilson’s hands, he
seemed to do it with a sort of “sorrowful
pleasure." His escape from his position,
whichhad made him an especial target for
brutal abuse, was no-doubt sincerely grati-
fying, Then. ew Vice President will have
a hard task in following his predecessor in
rapid and correct rulings.
Gov. Buckingham made a resolute and
successful efi‘ort late Monday night, to get
up the 5th Conn. Bounty Bill. We never
saw the Governor’s ire quite so stirred up,
and when afellow Senator made the plea
that his case was so reasonable and he so
seldom asked a favor of the Senate, he rose
and with spirit, but entire dignity, declined
to have it’put on- any personal considera-
tions whatever. He wanted the Senate to
protect the Government's pledged honor to
this Connecticut regiment. The bill was
taken up on a call of yeas and nays, and
passed. the Senate. For lack of time it
failed in the House, although Representative
Kellogg made every possible effort to pass
it there. Theequitiesare so well recognized
that the military committees of both Houses
were unanimously tor it, and there is no
doubt of its passage next winter. The bill
pays $100 to those members of the 5th Conn.
who were mustered into the Stateinstead of
the Federal service at the time of their on-
listment,and who thereby missed the bounty.
If the voters of the 3 Congressional District
have a proper appreciation of their own
local interests and the best interests of the
State at' large, they will return Representa-
tive Kellogg, without reference to partizan
lines. He is conceded to be the most cfi‘ec-
tive and successful worker in Congress.
The Inauguration, but for the intensely
cold weather, would have been one of the
most brilliant occasions of the sort on record.
A: it was, the soldier’s and civilians were
chilled to the bone and marrow. Especial
sympathy was felt for the West Point Cadets
who were ordered into line without ever
coats. One, becoming behumbed, was
carried Into the Whitc House for restoration.
David Clark’s protege Smith, the colored
cadet, was anxiously sought out by curious
eyes, but as he was no darker than a. score
of his comrades a dozen different ones were
pointed out for Smith as the line advanced.
The ball in the evening, originally gotten
“P at $20 per ticket to takcihi the greenics
and make money, was, owing to the intensi-
iy 0f “190016,:1 heavy financial failure. Gov.
Jewell, Gen. Hume! and Representative
Kellogg were on the floor with their winter
overcoats, in an apparent shiver, and the
number of blue-nosed and purple-armed girls
were [never equaled before. Gen. Hawley
danced resolutely with a pelitnative Jail-
giri, dressed in her native costume of richly
embroidered satiu,and the pair were the
observed of all. ' -
