Commoa Beate Wanted In Coa|rt??
It is a marvel that some member of the
democratic majority does not see the exact
position of the Blaine business. The ex
Speaker has done three things. First, he
has tampered with a witness of the House
under subpoena, endeavored to destroy his
evidenoe and send him out of the country.
Second, he has taken from the possession of
a witness under the subpcena of the House
documentary evidence, which is the prop
irty of the House if there is any virtue in
tts process. Third, he has trifled with
Ihis evidenoe by reading what purported to
be a oopy of it to the House, without per
mitting any competent agent of the House
to verify it When a member puts himself
in thin position clearly the dignity and au
thority of the House demand that he be
summoned to its bar to answer for con
tempt. Yet Mr. Blaine throws the commit
tee upon the defensive, bullies poor Planta
tion Knott until he begins to talk about pis
tols in the lobby, and leads the country to
believe that he is the victim of a Confeder
ate conspiracy. The more we think of the
recent proceedings in the House the more
ire are astonished at the audacity of Mr.
Blaine and the folly and ignorance of the
democratic members. If Plantation Knott,
Instead of gasconading about the lobbies,
swearing at Blaine and threatening to shoot
somebody, were to rise to a question of
privilege and call the attention of the House
to the fart that a member had ocmmitted an
sot of gross contempt, it would require more
genius than even Blaine possesses to explain
it away. Blaine's whole course in this mat
ter is a gross oontempt of the House, and if
the democratic members had not lost their
head they would make him purge himself.
The case is as clear as noonday, and we are
amazed that the democrats do not see it.

and Twitchell was not caused by reason ol their
political opinions and that the affair was not or a

FROM OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT.
Wasbixotow, Jan* 14, 1876.
OUR BXTBADITIO* TREATY?THB DITrEBlRT
YTEWS or SECRETARY FISH AMD LORD
DERBY?TBI FORM KB SUSTAINED BT TUB
COURSB OF DENMARK AND BELGIUM.
From tbo correspondence lately published In the
Winslow case It appears that Lord Derby claims that
tbo principle contained In the British act or 1870?vix.,
tbat a criminal (ball be tried for no offence in the
country to which bo Is delirerod up other than tbe
particular extradition crime I or which be was sur
rendered, Is tbs proper and accopted
nil* oa tbo question. Mr. Fish, however, baa In
sisted that such was not tbe proper or the general rule,
but that tbo limitation should bo tbat a surrendered
criminal isbould bo tried for no offonre other than one of
tho extradition crime* named In the treaty. Lord Derby
referred to the fact that many countries had negotiated
treaties wltb Great Britain under the set of 1870, as
evidence tbat tbe British rule had been adopted, and
among tbem Denmark and Belgium. As Great
Britain had bound herself by the act ol 1870
these countries appear to have made treaties
tbereundor, but la support of Mr. Fish's view It ap
pears that some week* since when Belglu-n snd Den
mark came to negotiate an extradition treaty between
themselves, Ireo from the English act, they adopted
tbo rule which Mr. Fish baa laid down. In a treaty of
extradition between Denmark and Belgium, signed
March 26, 1870, tbe following is a translation of tbe
article:?
Bo cannot moreover be prosecuted or condemned for
any of the crime* committed previously to the extra
dition which are not provided lor In th? present Con
vention unless, after having been punished lor or ae
quittcd of tbo crime or offenoe which has served as
tbe ground of the extradition, he has neglected to
leave the nonotry before tbe expiration of one monlb,
or has returned thore again.
THB C HA ROM AOAINST J. A. BRIDOBLAND,
COJfBUL AT HAVRE?A SINGULAR FEATURE IN
THE CASE.
At the session to-day of the Committee on Expendi
ture* ot the 3late Department tbe case of J. A. Bridge
land, our Consul at Havre, waa taken up, and tho
charges preferred by \V. C. Moore, late an internal
revonue assessor, were allowed a formal presentation.
It seems that Moore mado those charges several years
ago, when Bridgeland was a supervisor of Interna
revenue tn Toxas, and tbey were weighty enough
to get the attention of the Grand Jury, although
tbey wore eventually dismissed. Tbe chief charge
was that be procured the sum of $"S0 from one
of the enllectora of Internal revenue in bis dis
trict upon tho collateral of bla government pay,
when, a* It turned out and as Moore charges, he
had already drawn bis pay. The singulsr feature of
tbe ease, however. Ilea In tae disposition tbat was
made of tbe official charges preferred originally by
Moors. These were nowhere to be found on searching
the flies of tbe Treasury Department, b?t as soon as
Bridgeland made bis accusation Bon too. the clerk of
the Military Committee, a relative or W. O. Avery, the
convicted chief clerk of tbe Treasury, and a trloud of
Bouton, turned tbe papers over to Bouton for use
against Bridgeland.
