forming the public that Col Ethan Allen,

that he himself was a Grant man, for

On the !7th of February, 1869, he accepted
a fortune from General Daniel Butterfield,
being the sum of $105,000 contributed by
him and others as a present. One good

of that same year wc find General Grant

(From the Washington Pstrlot.
Our Absent President.
Washington’* Successor Degrading
his Office Into a Personal Sinecure.
The sudden departure of the President
from Washington, and his culpable neglect
of public duty, have excited much feeling
among oven pronounced Republicans, which
some of them will probably soon make
known in a practical form.
In wilfully disregarding the proprieties
of 1.5s position, and ignoring the example
of his predecessors, the President has stirred
just resentment on all sides. It was sup
posed that the scandal of his prolonged
absence last year, and the severe criticiem
which was provoked by the nogleet of all
business, would at .least have corrected
(hat glaring abuse. Ib* seems to defy pub
lie opinion purposely, to scorn ali idea of
obligation to remain at his post, and t,o re
joice In pocketing his pay without, render
ing the least service. This conduct is sim
ply disgraceful. There is no other word
for such official profligacy, which lias not a
color of excuse to extenuate it.
The President is in the vigor of life, with
robust health and a strong constitution
Washington is one of the most healthy
cities In the Union, refreshed by the breezes
of the Potomac and the mountains. Con
sequently there is no reason, In either of
these respects, why lie should leave the
capital for any length of time. No one
nretends to object to any reasonable recre
ation. but when the President deliberately
closes his official residence (which the law
supposes him to occupy all the time of his
term) for th<‘ whole summer, ami thus sets
an example to his Cabinet, and all other
responsible officials, to disregad their duty,
he invites the sternest comment During
the past, winter he was absent for weeks,
at various times, making visits of pleasure,
just as he is now taking his ease at the
seaside, while the great affairs of the coun
try, which demand constant care, are cast
aside for a future season of more conve
nience. Private Interests as well as public
business, are thus shamefully sacrificed
without compunction,, and the office of
Chief Magistrate is degraded into a person
al sinecure, which is only valued for its
emolument and power,

Grant’s Treatment of Soldiers.
We have noticed the reply of Mr. John
A Logan to Senator Sumner, and especial
ly that part of it where he tells the latter
that, the soldiers of the republic would re
member his speech Wc think in would be
more logical and senatorial if he had shown
where he (Sumner) misstated one fact hear
ing upon the conduct of Mr. Grant as the
Chief Magistrate of the nation. During
the coming campaign we will hear a great
deal about the soldiers, but the* less said
about them the better. Never in the his
tory of the United States were they treated
more shabbily in the distribution of offices
than by General Grant ; never were (here
a fewer number, In proportion to the offices
tn the gift of the President, holding Fede
ral positions The American people had
not digested the inaugural of the 4th of
March, 1869, before the conqueror of West
Virginia, the gallant soldier of Ink a, the
victor of Corinth, and the hero of Stone
river, was peremptorily removed to make
room for a third rate Indiana politician.
Bartlett and Dix followed after, Flovey and
Sullivan were notified to leave, aud Ewing’s
head fell Into the political basket on de
mand of the Washington ring, notwith
standing the’fact that he was a relative of
the general of our armies, and a gallant,
educated soldier himself. Gleason had to
leave Bordeaux to accommodate a relative
of A. 4’. Stewart’s wife; Parrel was re
moved because he declined to allow half a
dozen Cadiz rascals to swindle our revenue,
and compelled them to pay $102,500 into
the United States treasury; King, who, as
a lieutenant on the Mississippi flotilla, did
gallant service, who was brought from
China to take charge of a bureau in the
Navy Department, in violation of pic
usages and rules of that branch of the pul>-
ltq service, in 1869. No man bearing the
distinction of a general In the United
States army has ever nursed hostility to
wards brother officers with the same lnt.cn
sity as General Grant. Every one of them
who aided him to keep his place as a Major
General of Volunteers has been hated by
him most cordially. The malevolence of
Grant towards Thomas, Rosecranz, Man
cock, and Buell is too weil known to he
written of.

Tlie Leaders of tlie Southern Armies
Once for War but Now for Pence.
The fact Is worthy to be mentioned, not
as reproof to any one, hut nevertheless as a
fact replete with significance, that the men
who led the Southern armies when there
was real fighting to lie done—anil when the
sectional controversy was being settled
with powder and bail, and shell and shot—
are all opposed to a straight Ant nomina
tion on impracticable issues In the Presi
dential election and arc in favor of the
adoption of the peace programme declared
at Cincinnati. Let us submit a few exam

While these soldiers of the Lost Cause
are rallying under the banner of peace,
which has been entrusted to the keeping of
honest Horace Greeley because he has
steadily advocated universal amnesty since
the close of the war, and has given the
highest evidence of personal example of the
faith in him, tlie rank and file, whom they
lead, are forming arouud them an Invinci

A nothkr Anti Greeley Conference.—
Two gentlemen, of New York city, whose
names are not widely known to fame, have
issued a card in the name of “ many Dem
ocrats of the city and .State of New York
who are opposed to the nomination of
Horace Greeley at Baltimore and who will
not support him if nominated,” in which
they invite all Democrats in every part of
the Union " who are willing to co-operate
in such a movement to be present at Balti
more on the Bth of July” to confer together
and take such action as there may be
deemed advisable. The two signers are
Joseph R Flanders and John Van Allen
This is an ambitious undertaking to lie
ventured upon by two obscure men. The
opposition to Greeley among the Democrats
grows “ small by degrees and beautifully
]?s,"•—Richmond Whig.
PO TjJTTICAXi not vs.
It is not an uninteresting task, just at
this time, the daily reading of the heap of
exchanges that come from every section oi
the country with their varied report and
sentiment concerning tlie Presidential can
didates. From the remotest corners of the
East and North to the furthest limits of the
South and West the press is discussing
whether we are to send the “ white hat or
the “ cocked hat” to the White House, and
giving space to the vl#ws of Influential
citizens on the subject. It is generally con
ceded that Mr. Greeley will be nominated
at Baltimore, and the controversy is there
fore no longer triangular, but dua : Grant
vs. Greeley. Wo propose to condense daily
a portion of the spirit of the press and pub
lic men, believing our readers will be in
terested in perusing the same.
From out West we have a letter written
by Congressman Kerr, of Indiana, who, af
ter adjournment of Congress, started for
his home, intending to take tlie stump
against Greeley, and in favor of a straight
ticket at Baltimore. But arrived at home,
lie writes to a friend .
“ Well, Greeley is the man ; it is inevita
ble ; nobody could still the wave in that
direction in Indiana; it was and is un
compromising and irresistible; all the pro
ceedings ofmir convention means Greeley;
Uie delegation to Baltimore are all for
Greeley ; there is no help for it; vve must
light it, out under that old wl it, hat.
Whata change ! Who, six or three months
ago, would not have pronounced such an
event impossible ?”
The Oshkosh (Wis ) Times believes Gree
ley will carry that State bv 10,000 ma,
joritv.
Senator Trumbull says that “thechances
of Greeley in the Northwest are better than
Lincoln’s were in 1860.” He is going to
take an active part in the campaign.
The lUleigh News is credibly nformed
that Hon. A. W. Venable and lion Weldon
N. Edwards, of Nouh Carolina, both sup
port Greeley for President,
The Louisville Courier Journal thinks
that Henry Wilson deserves no support
from Americans of foreign birth for having
said, in 1853, that
* Tlie time has come when the uniform
of the State militia, should no longer be dis
graced by being seen on the back of a Cath
olic Irishman or an infidel Dutchman.” It
lie has ever retracted we. have not heard of
it.
The LaGrange Reporter is of opinion that
if Gredev should he endorsed at Baltimore,
Georgia “ will go for Grant—if the Repute
licaus should become thoroughly organized
and well managed.”
Whereupon the Macon Telegraph and
Messenger rejoins in the following epigra
malic lines:
“ This sort of gabble reminds us of the
story of Hu dog and the rabbit, which the
editor of W\r Reporter has probably heard.
Grant lias about as much cli nice cf carry
iug Georgia as Willingham has of becom
ing a bishop.”
The Richmond Whig calls for a cessation
of liost.ilites against GrCeley atid Brown,
and hopes “we shall hear no more, in
Virginia at least, about the Liberal ticket
heiii" a'hitter pill, and all that,. Tt e people
are for it warmly, am! the very salvation
of the country depends upon its success.
We all mean to support it, and it is folly to
say anything to dampen the popular
ardor.”
Gref.ley in New York —Two or three
days passed among the people of the inte
rior of this State, especially along the
southern tier of counties, adds to the Con
vict.ion that Greeley will have an immense
majority in the State of New York, and,
with the aid of the Democratic vote, a
larger majority than any Presidential can
didate here ever received In any like con
test.
The Democrats take to Greeley kindly,
and so, in some of the towns, do otic half
of the Republicans. We hear, indeed, of
towns strongly Republican, where more
than one-half of the voters will support
Greeley. Even Bourbon Democrats and
Bomlion Republicans are giving way in
the same direction It, looks in tnls State
as if the great bitterness of the canvass
would be confined to the Grant and Gree
ley Republic ans, The. result of the war
has put an end to so many sectional issues
that it will be hard to find any reasons of
statesmanship or nationality for support
ing Grant, as the campaign advances It
is “Grantism” upon the one side, aud
which everybody now understands, and
upon the other the rights of the people,
States rights, opposition to imperialism,
centralization and a government of rings
and office holders. Where New York will
lead in such a contest, tens of thousands
alsewhere will be glad to follow.

Dreadful Story of A Diamond Ring.—
Among the victims of the recent railroad
smash up at Metuchen, N. J , was a Danish
couple named Potassen, but two months
married, Mr. Potasson being the sou of a
Danish nobleman. They were on their
bridal tour, and were on route to San Fran
cisco, where I’otasscn’s brother is Danish
consul. When the terr ible crash came all
was darkness and confusion for a few mo
meats, but the gentleman soon r covered
consciousness, and his first thought was of
his bride. An immediate search was made
for the lady, who was at, last found beneath
a heap of debris,senseless and covered with
blood. Upon raising her up her husband
was horrified to find that one of her arms
had been completely torn off. The unfor
tunate lady was removed to shelter, and
the husband began the sickening task of
seeking his wife’s missing arm. He pro
claimed that, upon one of the fingers was
the diamond wedding ring, a jewel worth
many hundred dollars, and Instantly a
general search was begun. Among the
prowlers about the wreck was a train hand,
who was observed to secrete something
under hia coat, and walk away. He was
soon overhauled, and on perceiving that he
had been detected he threw down his bur
den, which proved to be the lost arm. It
was picked up by the nobleman, who re
moved the ring and caused the arm to bo
taken care of. The lady was brought to
St. Barnabas Hospital, in Newark, where
she now lies In a fair way of recovery.
A writer who has been nt West Point,
looking at, the wonders had his attention
particularly directed to the Gatling guns.
He says: “ An odd appearing bending band
of steel is brought from the ammunition
chest and* hold Immediately over and in
contact with the silt in the upper part of
the gun. This segment contains twenty
cartridges, and as the crank of the “ coffee
mill” is turned they descend In due se
qncnce Into the chambers, where they ex
plode. From the many mouths of the gun
shoot forth uninterrupted number* of pier
cingly bright flashes of flame, surrounded
by enwrapping veils of blue smoke, and
from the lower side comes a steady stream
of empt y cartridge shells. When one seg
ment is exhausted it is replaced by another,
and there is really no limit to tin* capacity
of the gun so long as tlie crank is kept,
turning. An officer Informs me that they
can fire four hundred and twenty hots a
minute; ami, furthermore, that the preva
lent impression concerning their delicacy
arid liability to get out of order Is untrue ;
that they are easily managed, simply con
structed, and good for much service.
A Tribune correspondent has been trav
eling in the Carolinas. He says :
“Soon after my talk with the South Car
olina editor, I met in the steamer a United
States Judge, who told me of a conversa
tion he had lately had with a South Caro
lina official, that Illustrated the barefaced
audacity and contempt for public opinion
displayed by the ring to which the editor
had referred. The Judge inquired of the
carpet-hag official how long he expected to
remain in the State, and got this reply:
“G, I’m not going to leave right! away ;
there’s a year's good stealing in South
Carolina yet.”
