Following is the lull text of tho
I'rp.sidi'Ht'a uu'dsagu veluing tlio liver
and harbor bill
To tho House of liouresentativcs:
Jlaviny watched witli inucli inteiorit
I lie progress of House hill iiiunber 0,
212, entilled, "Anaot lnaUing an ap
propriation for the ooiibtniclion, le
pair, and pretforvatiou uncertain works
on tlio rivers and harboj, and for oth
er purposes," and having since it was
received, carefully examined it, alter
mature consideration J :bu constrained
to return it herewith to the House of
Representatives, in whieli it originated,
without my signature, and with my ob
jections to its passage. .Many appro
priations in tho bill aro clearly for the
general welfare, and mewt benelleient
in their charade! . 'J'wifvf tie objects
for which provision is ta'i'j wuro by
mo considered so impnr' !,Umt felt

sage, in Deceinber lat, 1 urged tli-
vital importance of legislation inr the
reclamation uf the marshes and for
the establishment of harbor lines along
the I'otomac front. In April last, by
special message, I recommended au ap
propriation for the improvement of the
Mississippi l'iver. It i not necessary
that I say that when my signature
would make the bill appropriating for
theso and other valuable National ob
jects a law, it is witli
CilSKAT UKI.l'fTAK('i:
and only under a sense of duty that I
withhold it. My principal objection to
the bill is thai it contains appropria
tions for a purpose not for common
dofenseorgeiier.il well aro and which
do not promote commerce among the
the states. These provisions, on the
contrary, aro entirely for tho benefit of
particular localities in which it is pro
posed to make improvements. I regard
such appropriation of public money as
beyond the powers given by the Con
stitution to Congress and the Presi
dent. I feel more bound to withhold
my signature lrom this bill, because of
tho peculiar evil which manifestly
would result from this infraction of
tlio Constitution. Appropriations of
this nature, to be devoted purely to
local objects, tend to increase in num
ber and amount. As tho citizens of
one state find that money to raise
which they, in common with the whole
country, are taxed is to ho expended
for local improvement in another state,
tliey demand similar benefits for tlioui
solves, and it is not unnatural that
they should seek to indemnify thein
sohes for such of tho public, funds so
used by securing appiopriatious for
similar improvements in their own
neighborhood. Thus, as tho bill be
comes more objectionable, it secures
more support. J ins result is invaria
ble, and necessary follows a neglect
to observo tho
withhold my signature from the bill
containing tho appropiiations, which,
in my opinion, greatly exceed in
amount tho needs of the country for
tho present fiscal year. It being tho
usage to provide money for these pur
poses by annual appropriation bills,
the President is, in effect, directed to
expend so large an amount of money
within so brief a period that the ex
penditure cannot bo made economical
ly and advantageously. An extrava
gant expenditure of the public money
is an evil not to be measured by the
value o that money to the neonle.
WHO AUK TAX It!) VOU IT.
They sustain greater injuiy in Hie de
moralizing elYeet produced upon those
who are intrusted with olllcial duty
through all the ramifications of gov
ernment. Theso objections could lie
removed and every constitutional pur
pose readily obtained should Congress
enact that one-half only of the aggre
gate amount provided for in tlio bill
bo appropriated for expenditure during
the fiscal year, and that the sum so ap
propriated be expended only for such
objects named in the bill as the Secre
tary of War, under tho direction of the
l'ro&idont, shall determine, provided
that in no case shall tho expenditure
for any one purpose exceed the sum
now designated by the bill for that pur
pose. 1 feel authorized to make this
suggest ion because of the duty imposed
upon the President by theConstilution
to recommend to the consideration of
Coiilmcss such measures as he shall
judge necessary and expedient, and be
cause it is my earnest desire that the
public works which are in progress
shall sillier no injury. Congress will
also convene again in four months,
when this whole subject will be open
for their consideration.

Tho Cede.
One Sunday at Montgomery we wore
talking about duels, and when tho
names of several pjirtio.s who had gone
out in past years to satisty their honor
wore inVntioned, the .Judge, knocked
the ashes oil his cigar and said:
"flontlemen, it may bo mentioned'
right hero that 1 have been there my
self," "Were you challenged':"
"I was. It was over in South Caro
lina, and I cUed a man a liar, lie sent
mo (' nge,aml 1 selected sworus
us Cue wuuuMis. Wo met at 7 o'clouk
tho next morning." It was just such a
morning as this -bright, beautiful and
lull uf life."
"And how did you feel?"
" Very queer. I shall never forget my
sensations as I saw my rival, and he
seemed to be as visibly allecled. We
couldn't either one of us say a word."
"Was it in a grove?"
"Oh, no; it was at tlio depot.'
"The depot! Whv, you didn't light
at the depot, did you?"
"Well, no. The morning express
trains passed thoiv at T, and ho took
ono and 1 the other!"
Pio-Nio Party.
We were much nleased to meet in
our little city on last Thursday, tho
pic-iiic party from Urowiivillo. It
would stump tho state to tijrn out a
jollier or better looking set, and wo
wore told thoy had a splendid basket
dinner and everybody was gay and
happy. Wo only heard of one thing
that occurred lh.it wo thought was not
just right. The party was near Allen's
mill, ami some one proposed a little
dance on tne green, i ins wo uiinu
was unfair on the Itev. Scott, who was
one of tho number, for tlio others all
know that ho dare not join in anything
of tlio kind not by a dam site.

imposed upon the law-making powers.
Tlio appropiiations for river and har
bor improvements have, under tho in
lluonces to which L have alluded, in
creased year by year out of proportion
to tho progress of the country, great as
that has been. In 1870 tho aggregate
appropriation was $:),l7r,l)00 ; in 167.1.
ti,01.S,:'l7..-)0; in ism), 88,070,000, and
in 18K1, SI 1,4.'. 1,300, while by the pres
ent act there is appropriated Sis.7 1:5,-

to leave to tho legislature tho responsi
bility of determining what amount
should be appropriated for tlio pur
poses of the bill, so long as tlio appro
priations arc confined to objects Indi
cated by tlio grant of power, I can not
escape tho conclusion that, as part of
tho lawmaking power of the govern

An Unwritton Liuv.
It is an unwritten law. well under
stood in journalism, that 110 editor is
under the slightest obligations to give
a reason for his acceptance or non
acceptance of a manuscript, lie is not
called upon to write a private critique
011 the article to the autlior 01 u. ins
acceptance or rejection is an absolute
and unquestionable fact. Among am
ateur writers this does not seem to be
understood. All sub-editors and re
porters undoistiuid that itisan unjustl-
able impertinence to ask tho manag
ing editor his reason far publishing or
not publishing any matter submitted
to liis judgment. Outside writers and
aspiring ameteurs rarely seem to com
prehend this truth, and their trans
gressions aro largely from ignorance
rather than inattention. Tho nature
of editorial work requires absolute
power of decision in order to preserve
the unities of tlio journal tho editor
