Conduct of the Administration The Work of Correcting Abuses. A Comparative Exhibit. Civil Service Reform in Practice. From a letter to the New York Time, in regard to the conduct of Urania adoiiuislratloa in exposing and correcting abuses, we make tbe following full extract : THE LOSSES BY DEFALCATIONS SINCE MARCH 4, 1869. First, as to the amount of losses sustained by the rovernment through its appointees. The amount, I am well aware, is not altogether a satis factory criterion by which the integ rity of an administration is t be mitred. ct a comparison showing lhai the amount thus lost is not only iminishino, but that the boldness and audacity of such crimes have also been checked, is a legitimate proof of the increased vigilance enforced upon the custodial) s of public funds. Ihe folio in is a list of all the losses of ublic turn's through the crimes ol dclalcstion or embezzlement, known to the records, any part of which is believed to have accrued during this dmintstratinn. 1 be amount actually recovered in each case is deducted, hile the amount which may be re covered on the bond ii not deducted : Internal Revenue tSS.185 50 Cutloma iiucludlug defalcation of deputies) .tl.WlO 00 Treasurer's tifllce ,, - bi.uS! 46 PeUHlon i:ureau, - Hl.oiai Ui Land Ofllce 15,517 Mo Money Outer Ollicu (l'uslulllce De partments IXtJHl 26 Disbursing account (l'oslothoe De partment . - - w Paymaster Ueueral's Ofllce (War Department) BJW 00 Freediuen's liureau (War Depart- ineu !). - o.awi wf Total.. ..l,0U7,!a 61 This includes every case in which the law offices of the government have declared that the evidence is of such character as to warrant a prosecu tion tor the crime of embezzlement or lefalcaiioD, and includes all Ihe well known cases which have attracted pnblic attention during the past three years. AN INTERESTING COMPARISON. Now, as compared with this, the government lost, in two single de falcations, in Isew Orleans, under Johnson's administration, an amount nearly equal to t ic above, to wit : The fsub Treasury, Treasury, and National Depository defalcation of Wbillaker and May, in 1807, less amount supposed to lie re covered (gross amount fl.lf.0iJOt. fSjO.OOO 0 Shiadmun Internal Itevenue defal cation, sirst Coulsiana lilsirict. discovered on his removal, April 12, K) Total . 41,(JU2a Kl This comparison might be extended almost indefinitely, with still more strikbg results. It simply shows that the government has lost less taking the probabilities of recovery into consideration in all ils depart ments in nearly three years, than it lost in two single instances under Andrew Johnson. It should be re- arked that the amounts charged against this administration, as in the F. Uailey (h ourth New York) case, are an hem as accruing unuer u, though the fact is that in three-fourths of the cases they am the embezzle ments of the appointees of former administrations, discovered and ex posed by the present, THE TREASURY DEPARTMENT—INTERNAL REVENUE. Let us now go into the Treasury Department, where, if common rumor and the statements ot some of its assailants arc to be believed, at least one dollar in every four is being squandered or stolen. We will take the workings of the Internal Revenue Bureau in the respect which relates most closely to the point under consideration the accountability to which its officials are held. On tbe 1st ot March, 1869, of tbe entire number of Collectors of Internal Rev enue who h-d, tt any time, been in office during the existence of the bureauf there were but sixty whose accounts were finally closed. This single fact fitly illustrates tin condi tion ff the bureau at thai time, and if any ot the critics want to know why no progress conld be made in this direction between the years 1865 and 1869, let them summon ex-Commissioner Edward A. Rollins, who will a tale unfold. Since the 1st ol March, 1869, the accounts of f .ur hundred Collectors have been closed, and ont of 250 Collectors who have been superseded in cflice since March 4, 1869, the accounts of 145 have been adjusted and closed on tbe books ot the office, and those of 65 more are in a favorable condition for that result. In 40 cases of Collectors suspended since March 4, 1869, the bureau has ordered suit to be brought on their official bonds for, the recovery of balances found to be due. These suits jnclude not only the cases where embezzlement or de falcation is charged, in which criminal prosecution has begun, but the cases where from neglect, want of due dili igence, official incapacity, or other cause, a settlement has not yet been obtained. In most of these cases the crime of defalcation can not be eharged, though so long as the Treas ury books show an unsettled balance against them, they are technically held to be such. The following com parison shows to whom belongs the moral responsibility of appointing these delinquents, and the amount of both money and taxes for which suit has been brought on their bonds. It must be borne in mind that the in vestigation of their affairs and their removal from office baa in every case bttn accomplished by this admiiis i ration : Amount ol uncoPed and No. of -sm'tof unabated Collectors, money. taxes.

TREASURY DEPARTMENT—ENFORCEMENT OF THE LAWS. We will now take one other branch ot tbe workings of th bureau for an illustration. In the regular course of things, with largely reduced taxes nearly one-half with a great number of articles and deal era entirely released from its bur dens and annoyances, with amended and more effective laws for the pre venlion ot crime, and with the temp tations to the violation of law greatly lessened, there ought to be a larg -iaman in numbf" "itS. in uicimenis, anu convictions, as com pared with the years 1867 and 1868, when the taxes were large, and when toe situation or affairs under John son was marked bv a very lax en forcement of the laws, save in excep tional instances, where some resolute law officer pursued criminals on his own responsibility. We will com pare the fiscal year 1868. which is clear year under Johnson, with the fiscal years 1870 and 1871. twe clear years under Urant 1809. Number of 1S70.

In some respects. particularly those concerning the prosecutions of public officials, it would be even more striking. TREASURY DEPARTMENT—CUSTOMS DUTIES. Let us now go into the Customs Bureau, and look at the integrity of the ofhcials there, as affected by tbe question ot embezzlement and defal cation. Since the 4lh ot March, 1869, there have been brought against Collectors and other officers of customs and their deputies, fifteen suits, civil and criminal, involving 870,138 62. Of this amount, 34,- 000 ouly is in the nature of defalca tions, and that by Collectors' depu ties. Of the remainder, there has been paid in settlement of accounts 10.732 97, and judgment obtained for 83,890 14 more. Now, in these fitte u cases the moral responsibility of appointing these delinquents rests as follows : Appointed by Buchansn Appointed by Llucoln ... ( 5.158 31 17.97:1 4H Appoinieu ny jonnson Si.ir'l 1)1 Appointed by Grant 17,371 75 In the case of one Lincoln appoint ment, one Buchanan appointment, and three Johnson appointments. udgment has been obtained amount ing to 50,732 97, and paid in full. n every case the suit has been brought, or tbe judgment obtained, by the law officers of this administra tion, and in the three cases of actual embezzlement, those of Deputy Col lectors Bowerman and Wilson, at Baltimore, and Wellman, at Savan nah, the two former are in the Peni tentiary, and the latter is under in dictment for trial, ir it be said that not in this direction ate the corrup tions in tbe customs service to be looked for, I reply that I am dealing witb tbe one point only of tbe official integrity ot tbe administration ap pointments, and that the administra tion stands pledged by its action in other departments to attempt the reformations of the abuses of tbe customs service, as existing in the several custom bouses, wbicb no ad ministration has ever yet succeeded in eradicating. TREASURY DEPARTMENT—UNITED STATES TREASURER'S OFFICE. Next we will take the office of the United States Treasurernot in the nature of a comparison with other years, for it has been under one head for eleven years past but in the na ture of a contrast of its almost in comprehensible amount of business, witb tbe per centage ot losses from the crime of embezzlement or defal cation on the part of the Treasurer's employes. I do this because Gen Spinner is a tried and faithful officer, a steadfast Republican, and because bis administration sbows results in this respect believed to be without a parallel in the history of financial transactions. Tbe following table shows the aggregate yearly cash transactions of bis office for a period of eleven years, six months, and nine days from the 30th of June, 1860, to tbe 9th day of January. 1872. This ia simply the amount of cash and drafts or, in other words, actual money exposed to the cupidity and and dishonesty of several hundred employes and in no wise includes the large amount of bonds and se curities deposited in the Treasury as trust funds. These amounts are the "clearings" of the Treasury office for the periods designated : 18H1 f 211 ,458,548 07il8S7 15,930.467,911 90 lf....J2,2al.674,MJ (Wll7Mt..i,6i,3iil,lrt0 05 1HM 4,lS,i.'tl,l"Ct 6!l89.S,034,U12,OI4 15 im,i.7,a.'.o,uj4 m:i7a4.m9,M4,()i n I69,ll7,.0i2 8fi!lli714,343.36,SlJ P2 lsoo s,4Uiu3,!lO ?j;io7 1,7 !,&,-) IN Aggregate- ..JJo5,104V2 84 Total net lost by defalcation and em bezzlement in .reasurersomoeio January V, 1872 .t5,37 45 Six months and nine days. fTbe three clerks who embezzled this amount Edwins, Marden and Johnsonwere appointed under Mr. Lincoln, and continued thereafter. Here are transactions involving an amount of money beyond human comprehension fifty-five thousand millions covering over eleven years of time, and paasirg through the hands ot three or four thousand dif ferent people during that period, with losses sustained through a lack of official integrity on the part of the Treasurer a appointees of less than one dollar on the million, a per cent age so small as to almost defy calcu lation, and infinitely less than the loss from the abrasion of the gold coin paid into and out of the Treasu ry during the same time. It is firmly believed that no parallel for such suc cess can be found ia history. THE INTERIOR DEPARTMENT. Let us take up the Interior De partment. In the Patent Office, In dian Office, Census Office and Educa tional Bureau, there bave been no de falcations of any kind during the period named. In the other offices there have been discovered, since the 4th of March, 1869, thirteen defalca tions, involving a total of 216,097 95, of which there has been recovered 107,000, leaving a balance of 109, 097 95, which is fully covered bv re- sponsible bonds. Of these defalca tions, nine occurred in the Pension Bureau, three in the Land Office, and one in tbe office of the late disburs ing clerk. The moral responsibility of appointing these delinquents to i nice rests as follows: Amount involved. No. of cases. Appointed by Johnson s Appointed by u-m - I1IW.5H7 to WlJSuo uu Out of nine pension agents ho have defaulted, five were appointed by Johnson, four by Grant. Tbe three land officers defaulted were all appointed by Johnson, as was also the Disbursing Clerk, whose defalcation was discovered at the very outset of the present administration, and who was last week convicted and sen tenced for his crime, which was com mitted before this administration came into office. I aery etui it fell to tbe lot of the new administration of the department to expose tbe crime of tbe offender, and lo recover the embezzled money where it conld, and it is exceedingly probable that tbe government will not lose a cent in any of these cases, so careful has been their management. It should be added that in these cases, as well as others, the greater number of these defalcations ( nine out of the thirteen) accrued under the last ad ministration wholly, and that this ad ministration had no part or responsi bility in them, save to expose them. And not only has the Interior De partment sought to correct tbe abuses ol trust for which its present manage ment may be legitimately held re sponsible, but it has gone into past administrations, has prosecuted vig orous and unsparing investigations into all frauds, and has put under ar rest and indictment men who have for five years past flaunted their cor rupt gains in the very face of tbe government, of which the Wright case is a notable fact. THE POSTOFFICE DEPARTMENT. We will now take up the record of the Postoffice Department a de partment which has been as cause lessly assailed as any in the govern ment, Some of its bureaus had be gan to be looked upon by their former beads as tbeir personal and- life property when the new admin stra ti on made changes. The old occu pants packed up their personal prop erty, and, in one instance, a great deal that was not personal, and, as it is generally the case with such peo ple, set np in the claim and contract business. Not faring any better in the long run than any other agents, they bave, it is known, to some ex- tent been used by disappointed and baffled sharpers in furnishing certain distorted facts upon which to found reckless charges. But investigation of these charges has been cordially invited, and if the scamps who have failed to bleed the department do not aneak beyond the jurisdiction of the Sergeant at-Arms, there will be some rich developments. THE POSTOFFICE DEPARTMENT—GENERAL POSTOFFICE ACCOUNT. Since March 4, 1869. suits have been entered against 105 Postmasters, who have failed to adjust their ao counts to tbe satisfaction of the de partment These cases involve a total of 91,738 58, or an average of less than one thousand dollars each. The suits are brought to enforce set tlement, wbicb baa been deterred ne glected, or evaded, for a variety of reasons. In most cases it is either wsnt of diligence in closing the ac of count, a disputed vouch ers or claims which the department has refused to allow. Tbe moral re ponsibillty of the appointment of these delinquents rests as follows : Amount Involved. 377.1114 15 14,7.1 44 No. of eases. Appointed bv Johnson- Appointed by uraul. THE POSTOFFCE DEPARTMENT—MONEY ORDER OFFICE. Since the 4th of March, 1869, the epartment, upon investigation, has discovered sixteen defalcations in tbe money crder account, varying in amount from 26.96 to 115,000 and covering, all told, the sum of 156,639 63. Tbe two largest cases weretbose or J. V. Morton, Super iotendent. Money Order Account, New York City (115,000), and T. G. Simma, Postmaster at Atlanta, Ga. (22,696 37.) These defaulters were appointed as follows. Amount Involved No. Appointed by Lincoln. tlla.uuo us Appointed by Johosun 37.1-1 Oil Appointed by uranl.. 41 57 Norton was originally appointed a clerk in the New York Postoffice, during Mr. Lincoln's first term, and was promoted from time to time. Simms was appointed by Johnson, and was immediately removed by Grant, when the defalcation was dis covered. He was indicted in the United States District Court, tried, and acquitted on a remarkable charge from the Judges, that, while there was no question of the deficit, the government had failed to prove that he intended improperly to expend it. Norton was originally appointed un der Lincoln, and made Money Order Superintendent under Johnson, and the exposure of his fraud was the the result of the Department's own efforts in investigation. His bonds men, among whom is Hon. Horace Greely, have pledged the whole amount, and it will be recovered. Norton has been arrested and held for trial. The only other defalcation in this department since March 4, 1869, ia that of F, A. McCartney, late Disbursing Clerk of tbe department, for 936,000. He was arrested, held for trial, and died in the insane asy lum last summer from the shock of a broken heart upon a broken consti tution. The man who seduced him Into putting the Government's money iato a marble quarry speculation a Bohemian adventurer, without char acter survives him to invent and scatter slanders against the President and his administration about "saud stone rings," utterly regardless of the truth and his own responsibility for McCartney's defalcation and death. POSTOFFICE DEPARTMENT RECAPITULATION. Thus, in three years, the defalca tions exposed and prosecuted by the Postoffice Department reach the sum of 9192,638 63, of which at least sixty par cent, has been or will be recover ed. Tbe responsibility of less than 840,000 of this is legitimately charge able to tbe want of official integrity on tbe part of the appointees ot the present administration. The receipts and expenditures of tbe department for three fiscal years last past are as' follows : Aggregate receipts for years fiH.lM.TT 79 Aggregate expenditures for years 7-,ub7,u7- 21 Atouey order ofllce transactions for S years f.mi,7S3 9t Total SJU,t2,B3 an Now concede that every cent in volved in tbe suits against Post mssters and in the defalcations ol money order accounts ia in Jeo pardy , and the amount '- 251,377 21 or about cne ninth ot one per cent, on the dollar ! And this money tempts tbe cupidity and want of official in tegrity ot over 30,000 persons. Is there a better record in any civil service in the world ? THE WAR DEPARTMENT. The records ot the defalcation in the War and Navy departments afford no criterion by which to judge o' the crucial integrity of the appoint ments of any administration. The only responsibility to which tbe civil administration of these department can be held is the degree ot rigor with which the rules and regulations, designed to protect the disbursment of public funds are enforced ; and it has been because of the fearlessness with which these regulations have been enforced by the men now in cbarge that the defalcations which are charged against these depart. ments have been Lrought to hsht The most notable instance, to wit: the Hodge defalcation, began in 1866, and entirely escaped notice during the whole of the last administration to be exposed in this, because of the enforcement of a regulation which rendered Its further concealment Im possible. Although the present ad ministration can in no wise be held responsible for the appointment of Hedge, or any like him J include the net amount of his defalcation and that of two small cases in the Freed- man's Bureau in the aggregate. The esses in the Freemen's Bureau are those of William Wiggins, agent for payment ot bounties at Wilmington, Del, forging checks and collecting monrys due claimants for back pay and bounty, viz: $3,649 79. The whole amount was recovered. Wig: gins was tried, convicted, and sen tenced to ten years' imprisonment The other case is that Lieut Graham and S G. Burbridge, of Kentucky, who were charged with conspiring to deirana tbe government in the pay ment of bounties. The amount in volved is 5,500. and the arrest and trial of the parties has been ordered. The system now enforced in the War Department renders it impossi ble that any large defalcation should occur. Tbe inspection of disbursing officers' accounts under the direct order ot the Secretary has been go ing on with great severity lor sever al months, and the reports are ol a very satisfactory character. THE NAVY DEPARTMENT. Like the War Department, the de falcations in the Navy Department. L e., among officers in the navy service, aflord no criterion by which tbe re sponsibility of any administration for the appointment of the defaulters is to be judged. Nodefalcations have occurred in tbe Navy Department, any part ot which have accrued since this administration came into power. The department, however, since the 4th of March, 1869, has unearthed, by its own action, tour cases where the defalcations had been carried on for years undiscovered. In July, 1869, the Secretary ot the Navy (Mr. Robeson wes appointed June 25, 1869), issued an order compelling all Paymasters to deposit the bal ances they reported on their books. As fast as Paymasters came home this order was enforced, and it dis closed four cases of defalcation, vizu those of Paymasters Marcy, Lock wood, Giraud, add l'arker, the par ticulars of which are well known. They were all tried, convicted, and cashiered. The net loss in these four cases is about 165,000. In politics, three out ot four were Democrats, and they were all ap pointed years ago. The only re sponsibility to which either ot these departments can be held in these matters is tor tbe prevention, dis covery, and punishment of such crimes. That responsibility is sat isfactorily assumed. Not a single offender has escaped. HOW THE ADMINISTRATION DEALS WITH DEFAULTERS. It is instructive to note the manner in which the present administration deala with detaulters. I will take all the prominent cases that have come to the notice of the public during the past two years, and whose defalca tions cover nearly tbe entire amount set down as tbe net loss during that time: Marcy, Naval Paymaster, defaulter at Mare Island, California : cashiered. Lockwood, Giraud, and Parker, Naval Paymasters, defaulted on dis tant stations ; cashiered. J. Ledyard Hodge, defaulter in Paymaster-General's office; in Albany Penitentiary for ten years. J. F. Bailey, defaulting Internal Revenue Collector, New York ; fled tbe country to avoid arrest Bowman and Wilson, defaulting Deputy Collectors of Customs at Bal timore ; convicted and in prison. J. W. Norton, defaulting Money Order Superintendent, New York; under arrest for trial Geo. B. Wellman, defaulting Dep uty Collector of Customs at bavan nah: under indictment Internal Revenue Collector Gould, and Supervisor Kizyzanouski, con s piracy to embezzle.Georgia ; indict ed ; former fled the country ; latter held for trial. Wm. Wiggin, defaulting Freed men's Bureau Agent ; convicted and sentenced to ten years imprison ment F. A. McCartney, defaulting Post- office Disbursing Clerk ; died in in sane asylum before he could be tried. C. . Edwins, embezzling Treasury Clerk ; convicted and in prison. F. A. Marden, embezzling Treas ury Clerk ; convicted and in prison. Seth Johnson, embezzling Treasury Clerk; under indictment and will certainly be convicted. S. B Kendig, defaulting Disburs ing Clerk, Interior Department; convicted and in prison. The responsibility of the appoint ment of only four of the above sev enteen cases rests upon this admin istration ; but it has inflicted punish ment on all who have been tried, while two have fled the country. A CONTRAST OF LOSSES AND TEMPTATIONS ATIONS Let us now contrast the business of the government, for three fiscal years, with the losses sustained through the want of official integrity on the part ot its subordinatea. The net revenue receipts and the expen ditures for that time are as follows : AKtrrezate receipts for three 41,I63,S23.1l 73 Aggregate expenditures years . lur luree y" , Kl,97.08 80 Aggregate ti,tXlU,),19tl M Now the actual net ascertained losses caused by the dixhou esty of government officials during same lime. Including war and navy defalcations, amount " SI.282,96- 81 which ia barely equal to one sixteenth of one per cent, on the dollar. And if we add to this amount of loss by defalcation every cent, in jeopardy, for wnich the government has brought suit most of which will be recovered the total would be $2, 301,621 82, or about on ninth of one per cent, on the dollar. Is there any private business in the world that can compare with this ? PUTTING THE RESPONSIBILITY WHERE IT BELONGS. But, in order that the responsibility of these losses should be placed where it properly belongs, which is the real object of this statement, one more illustration is necessary. Grant's administration is charged with appointing more incompetent and corrupt men to office than any that have preceded it Let us take the total number of cases of recorded misconduct which have been dis closed since it came into office, or of funds in controversy, with theaggre- gave amount of money Involved, an J the result is thus ; Number ATm of case- . - ADOoinred under Buchanan 1 1 Appointed amler Lincoln 15 Appointed nnder Johnson-XT Appointed nnder Grant 89 Unascertained appointment 1 war and navy) l,nVv :i n SiJ.M 41 sxysv is Now. pet haps, it makes little differ ence, so fir as the morality of the case is concerned, whether one six teenth of 1 per cent, or 16 per cent is embezzled. But when you come to discuss the question as to whs em bezzles it, it does make a great des1 of difference. And if this article w as not already too long, the comparison might be earned back several years, witb still more striking results. The point here demonstrated is that the cbarge that the standard of tbe great mass of the men in tbe civil servi-; not being improved, is false. V . men denounce the civil service as "the worst the world ever saw' it shows that they don't know what they are talking about that they are chattering slander and misrepresen tation without investigation, or any regard for truth. No doubt the civil service can be greatly improved, and no men have given a more effective demonstration of their intention to improve it than those at present in power. In conclusion, I invite the attention of candid people and "re formers" also to the facts here set forth. If I have "set down caught in malice," 1 certainly have extenu- CYMON. A Boston correspondent furnishes the follow in particulars about the late Fisk and Mrs. Fisk ; "When he was in the dry goods firm of Jordon, Marsh de Co., he and his wife boarded at the Tremont House. Subsequent ly, or perhaps it was while he was stiU connected with that firm, be bought the house in Chester Square He and Mrs. Fisk visited Europe some years since, and Mrs. Fisk, accompanied by her friend, Mrs. Fanny Ilarrod, (who was formerly a school teacher in this city,) and Mr. A. J. Pollard, who was Fisk's ex press agent here, made second European tour last summer. Thera was no estrangement whatever be tween Mr. and Mrs. Fisk, as would have seemed natural. The latter has lived in expensive style, her husband furnishing the money. Her stylish carriage is well known in our streets, and it is the same in which the Col onel was wont to ride when he was here. In the .course cf his Sunday visits he transacted an immense amount of business, after holding a continuous levee at the house in Chester Square. It was currently reported some years ago that the deceased bad placed in trust far his wife a considerable sum of money, to gnard either one or both against a rainy day." Then it was variously estimated from two to three hundred thousand dollars to a million dollars. The trustees were said to be well known Boston gentlemen. When Mrs. Fisk was recently in Enr most extravagant article app . . an American journal published iu Paris, describing the expensive ward robe she was said to have purchased abroad. No queen was ever arrayed half so gorgeouely as the fanciful writer sought to array Mrs. FLk. How much truth there was in th article, which was extensively copied in this country, Bostonians have no means of knowing, for the lady dres ses no more extravagantly than scores of our fashionable ladies, al though she has always been remark able for her taste and elegance of dress." Tns Postoffice Department has in-t made an important decision rega -.... the transmission of newspapers bv mail, which is ot considerable interest, not only to publishers, but to the peo ple generally. Under the new con struction placed upon the law, no name or memorandum can be made on a newspaper inside the wrapper on which the address is written. It is barely permissible to mark an article with pen or pencil. More than this, subjects the paper to letter postage, and the violator of the law to fine. Neither must any printed card, hand bill or advertisement, written notice, letter, or slip of any kind whatsoever, be folded in the paper. Printed slips posted on the outside or folded in papers or periodicals, soliciting no tices, are also violations of the law. senders of transient papers can send bundles of printed matter by weight at transient postage charges, but must not send any written matter in such bundles. To do any of these things is to violate the law. These facts are of importance, and should be borne in Pittsburg Commercial. In regard to Mrs. Wharton's ac quittal, the New York Tribune says ; "Whatever may ba the private, un uttered opinions of peopla as to the guilt or innocence of one accused of murder, it is more than ever clear that it is difficult to convict upoD circumstantial evidence. And it must be confessed that lastly or un justly, most people will consider that science has not cut a aigmucd figure in the trial which has ju3& been finished. Those who followed the case may not have had all their sus picions allayed, but they will not have them strengthened by tbe evi dence of chemical experts. The ver dict of the jury is just and right un der the circumstances; but tbe popular belief that a great deal of medical science is purely empirical will be fortified by the details and result of the tnal.' The New York Evening Post siys ot appropriations of public money to sectarian schools: During the Its, live yetrs the amounts thus apmi r -a'ed have been as follows: l-.OT $194,000; 1868, $141,000; 1P 8421,000; 1870, $525,000; 8570,000 ; total in five years, 32,Uol, 000. Of these two millions or dol lars, about a quarter of a iiiilaun, (1250,000) were given for charitable schools not professedly sectarian, but in nearly all cases of eu; h ap propriationa the schools were connec ted with Roman Catholic churches. There is only one way to j ieven' extravagance and favoritism in t'd-i direction. The door mubt be abso lutely and finally closed against all state assistance to sectarian chxri ties. The Government printing cfli at Washington, as described by Mr. Garfield, has become a moi.r'" institution, and a vast leach upon ... Public Treasury. It is the largest printing establishment in the world, employs over one thousand men and women, and uses printing ink enough every year to float the biggest man of war in the navy, while its annual expense rises ta the sum of $2,000, 000. A train of array wagons, Mr. Garfield said, reaching three-fourths of the way between Washington and Baltimore, and loaded with one ton apiece, would not be able to hold and haul the mass of public docu menta printed every year at this es tablishment The Count De Cbambord has is sued a manifesto to the French peo ple, reiterating his right divine to reign.

The following curious anecdote furnishes another instance of the oc casional confidence of animals in others which they are supposed to regard generally as their natural enemies. "Some years since I lived in the village of Ickletou, in Cam bridgeshire. After my shooting ex cursions the dogs were fed in their kennels, the food being placed in a long trough. To this duty I gener ally attended myself. Upon one oc casion, after feeding the dogs, I looked into the kennel through a hob in the door, and was somewhat aston ished, not at perceiving a number of rats there, but to see them in the trough, quietly and fearlessly par takiug of bread snd milk with the dogs, who seemed to payno attention to such 'small deer.' I doomed the rats to destruction; and the. next day placed the trough in such a posi tion, that gun pointed through the hole .would rake It Irom one end to the other. At the usual hour the food was pi.iul a a lure but the -dogs were kept out in vain. I ' could see the head of a sagacious old ra peering cut at more than one hoK, nd from under the manger, for . - pose of I ecounoi taring ; but j ucsjend-d.

"Oh!' says he, in telling about it, "there ain't many who know how to rule a wife properly. Now, my old woman's one of the best satured women is the world, but she's got a devil of a tem per.
