One good result of the investigation into
the General Order busim ss, in this cily, is
foreahadowed in the eorreepondenoe betweea
Collector Artliur nnd becretary Buutwoll, pub
liahed to-day. The JL-oet harnacles ave to !??
seraped otf if possihlo, and tlio bnsiiMM is to
be conducted, BOOOrding to the Seorctnry, with
a view to tho best accomniodation of tho
mercbenta, after the primary eonsideration of
tho sccurity of tho Oovernnient has been
mado. Tho reault will, of eourse, bo the
utter extinction of tho hangen-on who pro
cui-c their aiistcnanco through the Military King.
To be sure, they may yet find flome nieans of
circtimventing tbe mlefl which are expected
to be npplied to the details of the new . cheitie;
but the publio attention has been BO clos.l.v
drawn to tho business that we have hopes
that this time tho Scoretary's opposition to a
plan which is devised for the expreafl porpoae
of forniflhing ptp for flpecial favoritea will
not, as before, be found ioefl!-ctual.
Of all the petty and utterly eontemptible
resolutions of inquiry ever introducetl in Con
greee, none has ever gone so very Iow down
BA Senator Conkling's resolution to ascertain
from the Preaident what roeommendationa to
oflice havo been mado by certain Benatora.
It may bc possihlo that somo of these gentle?
men have mado more sucb reeomuicndatiiuis
than the peragon of exeellenoe who tims
inipiuleiitly impngna their eondnci and attempta
to rereoge himself for their independence.
What of it? Ii.ii tlio Benate of the United
Btatea sunk so Iow that it mnst employ its
Ume in hnnting np theae peraona) and nnim*

were relevant, the namea of balf-a-doaen pro

apent in monaing about the Departmantaj bnl
oven in tlie controver.sy of dignifled journali.m
snch mattera are thongbt trivial; bow much
iiiore tritling are they in tbo handa of a Beaa?

The overwhclming diacloenreaof Qnarantine
eorrnption mado before the Inveetigating
Committee derive additional weight from the
BingnlBT pneiiliiy of Dr. Carnocban'a defenae.
Without even attonipting to refnte the chargea
againat him, be has sought to weaken tin ir
foroe liy summoning two or three of his snb
ordinates, who naturally said nothing ill of
tlieir maflter; half a dozen flteamflhip men
whom he had not dared to blackmail or op
preaa, and who, consequcntly, had no coiii
pluiiits to make; and a doctor or two who di
l.ited readily opon the need of n Btringont
qnarantine, bnt had no exenae to offer for the
flhameleefl extortionfl that havo driven one
third of onr liio trade to l.altiinore, in less
than two years. Enough has boen com lusivcly
proved to warrant tho iu-tant removal of tbe
lltalth Officer; and tho Committee, which re?
turued yesterday to Albany, will fail in its
duty if lt does not take steps promptly to ae?
eure tbo tborough reform of these Qnarantine
ahiises. Befoie adjouruing, tho Committee

of our tliitiiis, imi referred ihe whole matter to

for our Commiaaionera an.l tho Benate and tbe
Pn'.-.idi'iit ta anite in ;i t-lahonorable game to
deeeive England by eaying nothing abont thiir
real intentiona, it is impoaaible to bnagine
tliat this itratagem rould have been hept np
I.y the nation. Ai Mr. Bmalley expreaaea it,
"Toriy milliona of people cannot enter into a
"ennspiraey of sih n.c."
This view of the eaae ia foreing Itaelf npon
the attentlon of lhe better elam of Engliafa
jonrnala, nnd has its effect upon all ex
|ir<--i'.ns. of pnblle opinion. The Times, ttt a
iiii ul eiliti>rial founded npon Mr. Bmalley'a

for Mi.'.'ilail.-toue's implied ehaige of insin
eerity againat the Gorenunent of the Uuited

admiraUe spirit and temper. It makea, how
erer, the iui*-t:-l_o->. whieh ie not nnnanal even
with well-infbrmedpeople in Enrope,oi ettech
Lngnndne Impoi-tenrotothevfolentntteraneeeof
;i New-York paper which n.-vt-r ireigha its worda,
and inferring, lrom later nrlieles in llie ume
jonrnal, tbat there has heen a reaetion iu
Americau opinion npon this Bubject. Tinn. ia
no i.iiititiii, abecanae there has been no excite

?stiiinl now predaelj wbere they atood at lhe
tiiu.' of ih<* iir-i outbreak of Engliab indlgne

taiily be preanmed te ronrej the Jndgment of

However thia blgb tnternationa] tribnnal might
deeide, its verdiit would he inveetod with a
aanction too powerful ta admit of appeal.
With few exeeptiona, tbe people, of the United
Btatee approved tbii flnal and definitive refer
eme. Onr < Jovernment laitl before the Hoard
of Arbitration the full atatement Of itn case
aml its claiiuH without reserve and without
exaggeration, This plea was eonvcyed to the
Engliab Cabinet, and for eeveral weeks pro
voked no espeeial exciteineni. Hut the DeWB

Ameriean ease, aml just as Parllament

goaded Mr. Gladatone into nn intempemte and
Lndiaereet ipeech, tadirectly impngning the
good faith of tho Ameriian Goveiunient in its
interpretation of the Treaty. Aa a further
proof lhat party spirit i? not entirely ebeent
from tho eriticisins of the Treaty, it may be
Btated that Lord Malnie^bttry, on the wme day
in which The HaMapnbliahed this artiele, sever.-Jy

ia now eonalderably more thau two years oid.

hia lirst choice for Seeretary of the Treasury,
Mr. A. T. Btewart, more than eighteeu nionths
sim-e. I'indiug that tho abuso was not
eorreeted. Mr. Btewart again urged the
rresident to eorreet it?but to no purpose.
Then camo a most faithful, diligent,
nnprejudieed Committee of Investigatiou,
beaded by Senator l'ntterson, nnd over
hauled our Citstoin-house very thoroughly,
ezpoaing iu its Beport this General Order im
poaition to deserved reprobation. That Re?
port was made public a full year ago, and
was widely quoted and commented on. This
Wintor, another investigation waa ordered and
made?hapjiily, with opeu doors, so that the
testimony eould bo reported, pubUshed, and
eonimented ou day by day ns it trans
pired. It has of courso coiniuanded very
general attention and provoked unfa
voiable coiumeiit on tho rule uuder
whieh such extortion was possible. Thfro aro
National Couveutions Just ahead, with a Presi
dential Election looming up behind them: so
the Oeneral Order nuisanco is to be abated,
Just about three years after Leet lirst hung up
his carpet-bag in our City. Right glad are we
that the scandahms wrong is to bo redressed ;
hut (perhaps because our head is not very

when with this reform has been efheted.

IVrhaps there is uo more curious phase of
our purely social life, or ono moro deserv
ing of attention, than that of the South at the
present Iime. We bavo oecasional elahorate
pietures of it from several Sotithern writers,
who flnd it not 6?dy soolhing to their sensihil
ities to deplore the \fi9i golden age of Slavery,
but, most probahly, prolifilble iu u peeuniary
seuse. One of these geiitlemen, in a magazine
ot tlie ciirrent nionth, dijis his peu in alternate
tears und gall to depict (ho dt'i>lorable oondi
tion of the young hulies nnd geiitleineii of Vir
aginia deprived of their tormer eorps of Beld
and bonaehold eervanta. There ean be little
doubt that life in tke Virginia phintations is
the bmmI anggeetive aign of the deptb of the

orders tho prosecution for bribery not of the

tbemselves. Kob them lirsl,?throw them into
