Act to legalize the election of James Buchanan
Gen. Grant on the Tenure-of-office
Repeal.
Gen. Grant has made a very provoking di
lemma for the Radical Congress on the repeal
question. He explains it very clearly in the
following from the Washington correspondence
of the Boston Daily Advertiser:
President Grant speaks freely enough about
the tenure-of-office act to persons who ask his
views. Some gentlemen who were with him
three or fonr days ago famish the following
which is believed to be a substantially correct
report of the interview. He said: **I shall
try to execute all the laws made by Congress,
and I mean to be just as faithful in executing
those I do not like as those I do like. I shook
like to have the tenure-of-office law repealed,
for it stands in the way of several reforms we
want to make, but if Congress 'does not repeal
it I shall execute it the same as if I had signed
it- One of the gentlemen asked him if the law
was considered binding when the Senate was in
session, to which the President is reported as
answering:
“ Certainly; there is nothing in it which says
it shall be in effect a part of the year and not
in effect the other part. It does not say that
officeholders may bo removed at the pleasure of
the Executive daring the time Congress is in
session, while strong cause is required for their
suspension during tho time Congress is not in
session. As a citizen the law is of no more con
sequence to me than to any other person, but as
President it will prevent me from removing
many persons I think ought to be removed."
The President then mentioned by name the head
of one of the bureaus in Washington, and con
tinued : “ I do not think he is a fit man for the
place, and yet probably I could not make ont a
ease against him. If I knew as much about his
ings as he himself does, I think I could; but,
itls, if I were to say to the Senate, 4 1 believe
he ought to be removed,’ he and his friends—
and ho has a good many—would begin directi'
to show why he ought not to be removed, and'
do not know but the Senate would decide in bis
favor. I havn't anything in the world against
him personally, but I am strong in the convic
tion that I could put a good deal better man in
his place, and, if I’m to be held responsible for
the conduct of that bureau, I want a man there
whom I know I can trust.”
There was some further talk about this par
ticular bureau, and then one of the gentlemen
present remarked that he hoped a certain per
son at the head of a bureau in another depart
ment would be removed. The President smiled
and said, “Well, now; only yesterday I had
«omo gentlemen here who begged me to keep
him in. I know him well, and never heard but
that he was a good citizen; but I am convinced,
and the head of that department is convinced,
that the public interest would be benefited bv
putting a man there who is not mixed np with
p of Mr. Johnson’s administration. Some
le say that he is honest, and some say. he is
not’ I am inclined to think he is, bat if I un
dertake to put him ont and pnt somebody else
in he'll rally against me all kinds of opposition.
He and his friends would work among the Sen
ators and might convince some of them that Pm
a very bad man because I don't think he’s a very
good man for the place he’s got” This remark
caused some laughter, during which the gentle
men rose to leave, one of them asking os he did
so, if any nominations would be sent in thatday.
‘‘Nothing of consequence,” said the President;
‘I'm goiDg to wait a few days and see what Con
gress does. If they repeal that law I'm ready
to make a good many nominations. If the;
don't repeal it we most go very carefully,
shall want to make some changes, bnt if Fm
liable to be called in every case for charges and
specifications and evidence, I shall have to look
over the field thoroughly before I begin.”
Female Clerks in Washington
Hannah Tyler, a clerk in the Treasury De
partment, has written a slashing article to the
New York Independent, upon the subject of the
female clerks in Washington. She says “the
masses of women at the present time employed
in the departments are not possessed of very
brilliant clerical abilities. On the contrary,
very many of them have scarcely education
enough to tell the day of the week by a count
ing-house calendar; and they owe their ap
pointments and continuance in office to their
personal advantages.” •
Then TTsnnab goes on to charge that “the
departments are filled with females—crowded,
I may say, with those who serve the Govern
ment in no other way except to embarass the
public officials in the discharge .of their duties.
I could famish the names ot scores of women
who do not perform an hour's work per diem
for the Government; not in every instance be
cause they are unwilling, bnt because they do
not have the work—there being too many en
gaged in the same labor. In the office of the
Comptroller of the Currency, for instance, one-
third of the force employed would be quite suf
ficient to perform the labor. This is no specu
lation on my part. I know whereof I affirm.”
Of course she does, for she is right there watch
ing them all the time. And here is another fea
ture of the case:
“ Every woman employed should be snbj ected
to the same examination as men, and personal
beauty or laxity of morals ought not to be a re-
commendationj as is too often the case. The ex
amining board should be women. In order to
prevent corruption in all bureaus where women
are employed, there should be female auditors.
I have an instance in my mind where one mali
cious woman-clerk caused the removal of some
five or six faithful men, simply because they re
fused to lend money to her husband (?), a worth
less blackguard, who never paid his debts. Iam
happy to state that the auditor who made these
removals has just resigned and gone to the
West.”
But she reserves the worst charge for the last.
It is as follows:
“Congress or the President ought to afford ns
some protection, if they allow ns to hold offices.
We ought not to be insulted by ha*nng
moursand mistresses of members of Congress
forced upon us and be obliged to tolerate their
eocielv dauby day. Let Mr. BoutweH dean ont
tho riffraff and pollution of his department.
Let Kim appoint moral and competent women;
then let ns be paid according to our menu.
Such is the earnest prayer **vg
man-derjc. .
And so it seems members of Congress consti-
tnte the “outside influences” whieh prevent
the Secretaries from getting rid of a great batch
of “mistresses,” “paramours,” etc., of theirs.
The imbecile Sumner ought to at once investi
gate the grave charges of Hannah Tyler. ey
are scandalous in the extreme.
At a party, while a young lady vns
with a pecnliar brilliancy of touch- a ys
bachelor exclaimed, “I’d give the world tor
those fingers.” “Perhaps yon might get the
whole hand by asking,” said the young lady s
observant mamma.

very favorable. I used (200) two hundred pounds
upon Q£) three-fourths of an acre, third year's new
ground, applying it in the drill, rows three feet apart,
sixteen inches in the drill, on which I had fivo thou
sand seven hundred stalks of cotton. From this, I
gathered (1H24) eighteen hundred and twenty-four
pounds of cotton. The last of August, the worm com
mitted great ravages in it, destroying all of the late
crop. Had it not been for the worm I should have
made at least our-t bird more on t he land. I can cheer

BAUGH’S RAW-BONE PHOSPHATE.
Tbia artiel. haa beta before tb. public for thirteen
yoara, and there are now over 10.000 tona aold annually.
Head the following letter from a well known eltieen
of Monroe eounty:
Mokeo, County, Ga., Jan. 4,1869.
Mr. Oto. Dugdalt, Baltimore, Md.:
Dkab 8i«—I made an experiment upon Cotton tbw
ut mason with Baugh's Raw-Bone Phoapbate. I
naed it at the rate of only One Hundred Pounds Per
Acre, applying it in the row with the seed, and the
yield of cotton from land to which the Phoepbate was
applied, was One Hundred Per Cent, greater than
from land on which no fertilizer was used; the differ-
enee being so great that I eoold see to the very row
where I etopped dropping the Phosphate.
I ran, with confidence, recommend Baugh's Raw-
Bone Phosphate as bang a reliable and satisfactory
article.
