' CHOrS AND TOMATO SAUCE.
From the A. 1". Tribune.
The anti-administration newHpnpcrs, in
their anxiety either to injure Gen. Grunt per
sonally, or to affect tbo November elections,
arc making a use of the developments of the
gold conspiracy which long ago pawed the
limit of propriety and is now becoming
ridiculous. What may have been the schemes
of Messrs. Fisk. Gould and Corbin for
creating a corner in the gold market interests
the Grand Jury just now rather more than it
does anybody else; and we hope if the con
spirators can be reached by the law, the law
will make an example of them. If General
liutteraeld has been in league with them of
which we may await proof it will not be
iliiVicult to nay what ought to bo done with
Mm, and we shall certainly not be his apolo
fjUts. J'Ut as for President Grant, it seems
to us more and more clear every day that his
Li. nils are entirely clean of this mattor. Out
of the fads thus far brought to light, Sergeant
llu.fu. himself would hardly try to make a
c:-".- against him.
Of course, if Gram was in the ring, tho
conspirators could have the market all their
own v ay. There would be no need of buying
up other officers, corrupting General Luttor-fk-M.
corrupting General Porter, tapping
telegraph wires, or persuading the President
to increase the volume of currency, on tho
pretext that it was needed for the movoment
of the crops. Yet what was their course 't
It is said they schemed with Mr. Corbin to
secure the appointment of a Treasurer in
New York whom they supposed they could
trust; what did they want of him if they had
the President ? It is said they oil'erod a
bribe to General Torter, who refused it; what
need of bribing Grant's Secretary, if they
Lad Grant himself ? They resorted to extra
ordinary means for getting the earliest intel
ligence'of the action of the Government iu
relation to sales of gold: why should they, if
the head of the administration was in league
with them ? They represented to the Presi
dent that selling gold just now would be the
ruin of the fanners, and disastrous to the
Erie ltailroad; why on earth should they do
that, if Grant was in the plot for keeping
gold locked up ?
The testimony upon which these extra
ordinary accusations against tho President's
integrity are based is like nothing in history
or fiction, except the celobrated letters put in
evidence by the counsel for the plaintiff in
the suit of Cardell vs. Pickwick, Mr. Corbin
is a member of the ring, and General Grant
lias the misfortune to be his brother-in-law.
Gracious heavens ! gentlemen, are the liber
ties of our country and the property of our
fellow-citizens to be trilled away by such
shallow jutifices as these ? Mrs. Grant writes
to Mr. Corbin about the children, and adds:
"My husband is very much annoyed at your
speculations." Gentlemen of the jury, what
does this mean? "This is not an open,
fervent, eloquent epistle, breathing nothing
but the language of affectionate at
tachment, but a covert, sly, under
Lauded communication." Are "the chil
dren" nothing but a synonym for "the
bonds?" When this monster, bearing the
outward form and semblance of a man, bids
Lis wife write that he is "annoyed," is it un
derstood by his confederates in iniquity that
Le means "it is all right?" Mr. Corbin begs
the President to forbid further sales of gold,
and is told in reply that the President is very
much annoyed by his speculations; fears to
le unconsciously influenced; insists that his
Schemes shall be brought to an end. Ah!
gentlemen, this letter must be viewed with a
cautious and suspicious eye. There is a hid
den meaning under every word, a secret
known only to the initiated, an interpretation
at which we can only arrive by taking every
part of it in a sense exactly oontrary to that
which is expressed. Chops! Gracious
Leavens! And tomato sauce!
There is one part in the confession of Mr.
Jay Gould which deserves, perhaps, another
word. He says that Mr. Corbin represented
the profits on a certain transaction in gold to
Le for the benefit of Mrs. Grant. In the Hist
place, if Mr. Corbin did say so, there is no
evidence that Le told the truth no reason
why he may not Lave been a "striker of the
lobby." In the second place, if Mrs. Grant
did speculate, there is no evidence that she
clid ho with the knowledge or consent of her
Lusband, or that she knew any more about the
intentions of the Government than was known
ly all the world. She would not have been
the first woman who ever speculated in Wall
street without her husband's knowledge. In
the third place, whether Corbin invested for
Mrs. Grant or not, the President's innocence
is evident from Lis action, which was directly
ofldiust the interertH of the J Una; for when
the conspiracy Lad got headway, and there
was every prospect that gold would rise to
L(M), Le did what all their pipe-laying had been
intended to prevent Lis doing; Le did inter
fere; Le did cause the Treasury gold to be
thrown upon the market; and he did scatter
their combination to tho winds.
THE WEST AND THE SOUTH.
t'rom the X. 1". Times.
' From tbe doings of the Louisville Conven
tion some SoutLern journalists are deriving
strange lessons. From things commercial
they pass to things political. Business inter
Course they make a foundation for a partisan
compact, with a resuscitated Democracy as its
ultimate result. "Ohio will range herself
alongside of the South," says an enthusiastic
Georgian, "with Illinois, Indiana, and tho
Other great Western States, bound to us . by
the ties ot traae ana a common intern.
What tLe alliance will end in the same oracle
explains: "A Democraoy more invincible
ud more perfect masters of the situation
than the party have ever been before, even iu
lLe days of Andrew Jackson." .
Dreams of tLis sort have been revealed be
fore now bv the very men who exult over the
prospect of Wrest and South uuited for politi
cal purposes. "The ties of trade and a com
mon interest" were relied upon in 1 '.() to
make England the ally of tho Confederacy.
"TLe EuglisL manufacturers," it was said,
"could not live without the cotton-growing
States, and to their iust influence tho English
Government must yield." A brief 'experience
dispelled tLat delusion. And though through
out the war England played fast and loose,
Ler rulers saw other ties and other interests
than those of which the Sonth was tho centre.
The West, too, was claimed by tho South as
its natural ally. Then, as now, "ties of trade"
and "a common interest" were phrases with
which Southern people cheated themselves
into a belief that the West would sooner or
later Leip them. TLe mistake did not last
long. The West never for a moment hesi
tated. It was a unit for the Union. And it
contributed more freely than any other pnrt
q the counti? to tLe power that crushed the
ltobellion. "Ties of trade" wore as
nothing I
when a patriotic duty was to be performer
rmed.
So it will be still. Tho West is tho grow
ing power on this continent, and perhaps
these Northern seaboard Statos have not as
yet begun to realize the import of its growth.
Tho South, on the contrary, cultivates it as
siduously. Tho various commercial conven
tions exhibit West aud South in intimate fel
lowship. They have common ends to servo,
and common enterprises in view for their
promotion. To this extent the "ties of trade"
nave a certain significance. They fore
shadow changes in Hie current of trade which
the people of this section cannot afford to
wholly disregard.
Put, politically considered. the West is more
likely to control' tho South than to be con
trolled bv it. On fiscnl and financial questions
they are probablvLot far apart.. When, how
ever, Georgia Democrats take ground against
the Union policy which the West aud the
North, united, shaped and sustain, they com
mit an egregious blunder. With the Demo
cracy which made war upon the Union, aud
now makes war upon reconstruction, the
West holds no fellowship. It decides in mat-
r of that nature without pausing to esti
mate the value of "ties cf trade." It is de
voted tothe Union.nnd to thc!llepublican party
as the party of the Union. Ohioand Iowahave
iust pronounced their verdict and its tenor
is unmistakable. Could Indiana nud Illinois
bo heard from, their judgment would be the
same. The West Las a "common interest"
with tho industry find commerce of the South,
but none with its Democracy.
OU11 MINISTER AT THE TUILE1UES.
7 'com the A". 1". Sun.
Tho Hon. Elihu B. Washburne, Envoy
Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary
of the United States near the Court of the
Tuilerics, finds himself straitened for pecu
niary means to keep up tho dignity of Lis
station. In plain English, Elihu is hard up.
His limitod salary will not permit him to
make Lis bills as big as Lis love of niaguifi-
cence desires. Our niggardly Congress only
allows Lim .17,00i a year, gold, which is not
near enough, so ho writes Lome tor an extra
allowance ot -l.,ooo lor "coutiUKent ex
penses," or what a lady would call pin-money.
That Le thinks will relieve Lis present dis
tress, and when it is exhausted he will call
again.
Some of our plain, hard-working citizens
may perhaps want to know how Minister
Washburno contrives to spend so much
money. His l",n() a year, gold, is equal to
about !2L',mio in currency, and one would
think that that ought to sufllee even for a
foreign minister. J5ut they forget the perni
cious effect of bad example even on a Re
publican politician. Mr. Washburne. while
he was in Congress, m-rs the very incarnation
of retrenchment and economy. He had a
keen scent for every symptom of extrava
gance in the use of the public funds,
and denounced it most virtuously. Of
plain education, frugal habits, aud
democratic tastes, Le was the very man
of all men to send as our representative to
the most luxurious
was to Lave been
of modern capitals. It
expected that he should
deport himself there like a Spartan at the
Court of Xerxes, and rebuke by his example
the wanton luxury of the gaudv Pari
sians. But, as it was said of Kishop Colenso
that he went to Africa to convert the natives,
and the natives converted him, so Wash
burne has been seduced from his primitive
purity hy tho attractions ot 1'ansiau splen.'
dor. He Las taken a suite of costly apart
ments; Le has been feasted und flattered,
ana has civen leasts iu return to his new
found friends. He has gone to Court, and
presented to the Emperor and Empress hun
dreds of rich and aristocratic American
snobs, who, of course, must entertain and be
entertained by their official representatives
He Lus also been at Baden andllombourg for
his bealth, both very expensive places,
Thus, in the mad whirl and carnival of Pari
sian revelry, and in the pleasures of the great
German watering places, 17,01X1 in gold has
disappeared like a soap bubble. It is the old
story of the frog and the ox. In trying to
emulate his brother diplomatists, with salaries
paid out of royal cotters, Washburne s
purse has collapsed; and now he piteously
cries to the American people to fill it for him.
When a man of such stern and incorrupti
ble virtue as Washburne fails in resisting the
blandishments of European diplomatic life,
what hope is there for weaker aspirants?
And is it not evident that our missions abroad
ought to be summarily given up? They are
only traps and pitfalls for unsuspecting inno
cencc, and it is cruel to maintain them
PRESIDENT
GRANT AND
THE GOLD
RING.
From the X. T. World.
The thickening mass of embarrassing dis
closures, and particularly the circumstantial
statements of Mr. Jay uoulit, printed in neve
ral of the city papers on Thursday, bring the
operations ot the gold gamblers so nearly
Lome to General Grant, that something more
seems necessary, in the way of exculpation,
thnn the simple denial contained in his recent
letter to Mr. Bonner. It was a painful and
mortifying necessity for the President of the
t'nited States to be constrained to vindicate
his official honor by the publication of such a
letter; it is doubly painful and mortifying
mat me accumulation ot new evidence ren

falne. Until
Gould
has niadit false
it is
such
possible to prove them
proof is furnished, the
recent gold speculation must seem to the
public to be brought scnudalously near the
doors of the President. The evidence of his
complicity is not conclusive; but unless Mr.
Gould's credibility can bo shaken and de
stroyed, the President must stand before the
country in a most unenviable light. Mr.
Gould does not deal in vague assertions. His
statements are definite and specifii;, giving
names, dates, and chvmnsfanres, aud there
fore admitting of easy disproof if they are not
founded upon facts'. Until his credit as a
witness is successfully in. peached, the trans
actions must hve a' Very ugly look. Mr.
Gould a.strts:
1. That his intimacy itb Mr. Corbin,
Gcnerul Grunt's brother-in-law, has been close
and conlidVntml, and t'.ut during the summer
their meetings and interviews were almost
dr,i!y-, ,
'J. Tbii Guiierid i :u! te.rli. Id whs appointed
Assistant Treasurer by Mr. fortius influence
find wilii a view to fnvor Lis (.peculations; that
it. was id Ih'st intended that Catherwood,
Corbin's son-ia-lax, should be Assistant Trea
surer, but it was thought that this appoint
ment would be attended willi too much dan
ger, and Ciitherwood was bought off' by a
promise ol one-fourth Ui the profits made by
Corbin laid Gould. Bulterlidd was pitched
upon as a in a a well calculated to cloak the
contemplated speculation.
.1. 'J'ifit General Grant advanced to Corbin
tcu or twelve thousand dollars to bo used as
a mar(?in jn a speculation in bonds, and that
t'oil.'in's brokers purchased y:loo,ooo worth
with this margin on
account of tbe President.
4. That Mr. Gould had a personal inter
view with the President in the summer, at
Corbin's house, in which the President told
Gould that no gold would be sold before the
1st of November, beyond the regular mommy
two millions, and that this information was
the basis of the speculation.
That Mrs. Grant was in the speculation:
half a million of gold having beeu purchased
ou her account at which was sold when
the price had risen to i;iT, and the profit,
amounting to tyL'", mm, was remit led to her.
(. That when Secretnry l'.ontweii nan de
cided to sell gold and break down the specu
lation, the Presidont gave a peremptory order
to Bout well forbidding the miles, and that
this order was wiveu at the instigation of
Corbin.
, That the final order for the sale of gold
was not given until after Corbin had repre
sented to the President that he was out of tho
speculation.
liVerybody must perceive tlmf mis is a
most damaging array of facts, if tho allega
tions of Mr. Gould are to be accepted as trim.
They are fatal to Corbin, ruinous to Butter
fiold, derogatory to Mrs. Grant, and they
compromise tho President himself, as it can
not easily bo believed that Mrs. Gmut .would
Lave gone into so heavy an operation as the
purchase of halt a million ot gold without the
knowledge and connivance of her husband.
At the very least, it is a matter which needs
to be cleared up; for unless Mr. Gould can
be confronted with attested facts and con
victed of falsehood, tho President's denial,
made at the instance of Mr. Bonner, cannot
protect Lis reputation.
Why docs not Mr. Corbin come betore tue
public with a formal and circumstantial
denial ! lie is an old journalist and a recent
contributor to tLe editorial columns of the
Tinifn; a man accustomed to address the
public through the press, and perfectly com
petent to his own delense, it lie has a de
fensible case. A statement from him was
promised by tho Kreninfj l'ost some ten days
ao: but ho has not yet ventured to mako it.
He has made an abundance of verbal denials;
but his solemn asseverations have been con
tradicted by an array of evidence and affi
davits that prostrates all belief in his veracity.
lnder such circumstances, his protracted
silence looks to the public like a tacit confes
sion. Considering that not merely Ins own
reputation, but that of the President, is in
volved, it seems a fair prosumption that,
if Lo Lad any defense to offer, Le
would make haste to lay it before tlfti public,
especially as the President himself has felt
constrained to nmko disclaimer! in a pub
lished letter. If Mr. Corbin ha I anything
pertinent to say. he should have saved the
1 resident from Ims lmmilialiii" necessity.
The conviction is universal, that Corbin was
up to Lis eyes in the speculation and probably
its original instigator: und Mr. Gould's dis
closures, that General Grant was in a :iiM,()()(i
speculation in bonds, aud Mrs. Grant in a
f.'iiio ooo speculation in gold, create a neces
sity for a better defenses than has yet been
oflered, betore the President can bo fully
acquitted in tho public judgment. There is,
possibility ot his innocence: but appearances
are loo strongly against linn to allow the mat
ter to stand in its prescnf light.
General liutlerneld has not cleared himself.
and is not removed. The vindication which
he attempted a few mornings since in the
Tiiitcx is sufficient to condemn him. His verv
exculpation is inconsistent with his probity
as an officer. Nobody can believe that a tall
agent of Fisk could have stood close by him
in his office on that memorable Friday, and
have read over his shoulder oil tke official
telegrams he received from Washington, with
out his connivance. Whether ho was guilty,
or only green, Lo is equally unfit for his im
portant position. Why does not the Presi
dent remove him? Is he afraid to put so
guilty, or at least so leaky, a man out of
office? Is Bntterfield in possession of secrets
which would connect General Grant more di
rectly with the speculation as its secret abet
tor? Even apart from Gould's disclosures,
Butlerfield's own defense takes away all ex
cuse for continuing him in office for a single
day. Nobody believes that a tall messenger
ol the gold ring was looking over his shoul
der and reading all Lis despatches without Lis
complicity. Why does tLe President Lositate
to turn Lim out.'
If it Lad been Audrew Johnson, instead of
Ulysses Grant, to whom such facts Lad beeu
brought so nearly home, how all the Repub
lican organs would Lave Lowled! What a
clamor they would Lave raised ! Especially
if President JoLnson Lad been notoriously in
the habit of accepting profuse and expensive
gifts and in return bestowing important offices
upon their authors. Had it been JoLnson in
stead of Grant, nothing short of impeach
ment would have satisfied the Republicans;
and if the evidence Lad been believed, con
viction would doubtless Lave followed. We
will not treat General Grant witL suck reck
less want of candor as was practised towards
Mr. Johnson. All we have to say is, that the
disclosures are too damaging to be safely ig
nored; but if the President or Lis friends
make a successful vindication, none will wel
come it more heartily, or more cheerfully
admit its force, than ourselves. Tho reputa
tion of the country is too deeply involved in
the integrity of its first magistrate, for us to
desire that Mr. Gould's charges should be
substantiated.
