Mooro, it appears, was accmed so;n .timi a3o by tho collector of Internal rovonuo of the crime for whhh ho is now indiclod, and his resignation demanded. Ho refused to resign, and was reported to Washington, aftor which he concluded to ro sign, and hit resignation was acceptod. It is odd that he should have been pormiltcd to go free when ho wai an employe of the gevatn m.'ut, and whon it would liavi boon an eary mattor, If guilty, to bring him to punishment, and that ho should just now bo Indicted, whon his ability to annoy Kellogg has been demonstrated.
