the Tribune, Times, Herald, World,

TUB WAIi.
'I'm: present campaign in Franca is crowded
with ao many startling events that cable tele
grama which do not record a great battle or a
momeutons political chango seem compara
tively tame. But even Prussian armies can
not fight incessantly, and it is natural that
the terrible conflicts of last week shonld be
succeeded by a temporary lull. Time is
needed if for no other purpose than to Wry
the dead, relieve the sufferings of the
wounded, and to recuperate the armies ex
hausted by a prolonged struggle. The
French claim that they have improved their
precious uiomt nts by supplying the garrison
at Met s with food and ammunition,
and that Bazaine has Laon able
to withdraw a portion of his army by
opening a route north of the Prussian lines.
They also allege that a junction of his forces
with throe of MacMahon will be formed, and
that this united army will be capable of
making a stout resistance to the invaders.
The Prussian answer to this theory has not
been received. As 'usual, when they are on
the eve of great movements, they are remark
ably reticent. We never hear from Berlin
what the Germans propose to do, the official
despatches from that quarter being confined
to laoonio reports of accomplished results.
The official and semi-official news from Paris
is usually of a directly opposite character: it
tells of the mighty things that French armies
are about to do, an ! of mysterious strategic
moveaaeuts in contemplation, dwelling upon
the hopes of the futuro instead of tbo disas.
teri of the past.
It would be singular if the campaign should
be concluded witho-it a single interruption of
the line of Germaa successes; and partial
French triumphs, in some quarters, are
almost inevitable. But thero are no indica
tions that such successes are sufficiently im
pottaut to alter the general features of the
situa ton or to give to distracted Paris any
thing better than momentary relief. Behind
the vast hordes of German soldiers who are
already occupying Trench strongholds, other
corps and divisions scarcely less formidable
follow in their wake, and nothing short of a
military miracle can enable Franco to recover
Ler lost ground.
J. Gr.ANCY Josts, of blessed Lecompton
memory, having played himself out in Berks
county, and having become so obnoxious
there that he was defeated as the regular
nominee of the strongest Democratic dis
trict in the Union, has found a home in the
genial climate of little Delaware, and it is
alleged that he is now looming up as a pro
minent candidate for the United- States
(Senate from that State in plao of Saulsbury,
whose term expires March 4, 1871. As
Jones is one of the most inveterate offi?o
beggars in the country, and one of the
most plausible tricksters who ever deceived a
good-natured constituency, we shall not be
aotonifhed to hear that he is making headway
for the post to whieh he aspires. But if the
eyes of Delaware are well opened, it is
scarcely possible that she will rescue so
despicable a carpet-bagger from deserved
ohbcurity. If she is betrayed into such a
mistake she will repent lx-r error in sack
cloth and ashes, an) tin 1 that even a Ku1h
bury is to be preferred to a Janus face J
J one .
(Kr. of the avowed objects of the free
traders in the present canvass is to thin the
ranks of the protectionists in the next Congress,
so that, when the tariff is revised, Americm iu
dustry may be placed fct the mercy of foreign
manufacturers. No issues of the pending
campaign are more important than thosa con
nected with the future adjustment of imposts,
aud the people will commit a disastrous orr r
if tbev tfo not pnnrd carefully against the hii

NAVAL MACHINERY COX TRACT.
In our Washington correnpendoTice will be
found a statement of alleged irregularities in
the settlement of contracts for naval steam
machinery, addressed to Vice-Admiral Torter
by William II. Allyn, late Chief Clerk of the
Bureau of Steam Engineering. According
to the story told by Mr. AUye, Chief Engi
neer J. W. King, who succeeded the experj,
menting Isherwood as head of the Bureau of
Wtcsm Kogineeting, is guilty not only of
gross mismanagement, but of aiding to de
fraud the Government of a large sum of
money in the interests of the Corliss Hteam
Engine Company. The facts of the case, as
fat as we can gather them from Allyn's state
ment and from his testimony and that of Tor
ter before the Congressional Joint Select
Committee on Retrenchment, are that when
the present administration came into power
il was deemed desirable to compro
mise with contractors who were building
steam machinery for the navy rather than to
draw from the Treasury the large sums of
money that would be necessary if the con
tracts were fully carried cut and the ma
chinery finished. There appears to have
been no difficulty in effecting a settlement
with any of the contractors except Corlis,
who endeavored to obtain the full amount
that would have been due him if his engines
were completed and placed on board of a
vessel, whereas the machinery was only about
three-fourths finished, and Allyn contended
that the deduction to bo made by the Gov
ernment should be the difference between
the value of the engines as complete and
fitted on board of a vessel and the value as
delivered to the Government imperfect this
eliflertnco amounting, according to his cal
culation, to the largo sum of $210.00'). The
Corliss contract for a 100-inch engine was for
iJrPHjOOO, of which amount $:t0,0(K) repre
sented the cost of transportation to the Charloe
town Navy Yard and fitting it in a vessel,
and the proposition ho made to the Navy
Department was that ha should receive the
face of the contract less the $.10,000. Previous
to this a board of officers, consisting of Cap.
tain Strong and Chiof Engineers Garvin and
Fithian. had examined the machinery, and
cbtiuitited that it would cost $1 10,00) t ) com
plete it. Chief Engineer Henderson of the
Charlostown Navy Yard, also nudo aa exiuii
nation, and placed his estimalo of the cost of
completion at th still lprer sum
of $i?i;o,fj(j0. Allyn states that in
spite of tho reports of these officers the
proposition of Corliss was accepted by the
Navy Department, and that this could not
have been done except at the rocommendn
tion of Engineer-in-chief King. What makes
the matter more sei ions is thnt the proposi
tion of Corliss was found, when the investi
gation into the matter commenced, to be
indorsed "Accept the last proposition
D. P. P." Tfcese are the initials
of Vice-Admiral Torter; but before the
Committee on Retrenchment he swore that
tho indorsement was a forgery and that he
never gave hi approval to the document.
Before tho committee Allyn also swore that
the indorsement was not in the handwriting
of the Vice-Admiral, and he further stated
that the reports of tho board of officers and
of tho engineers who had examined the Cor
liss engines were mutilated so that they did
not read the same as when they first came to
the Navy Department.
There is certainly sufficient in these allega
tions to cause a very thorough investigation
to bo made, and Chief Engineer King, if he
is innocent of any dereliction of duty, will
demand a searching inquiry into his conduct
Pending such an inquiry, it is only proper
that the accusations of Allyn aui Porter
should be received with some grains of allow
ance. Porter is an enemy of the
entire corps of naval engineers, and would be
only too glad of an opportunity to do all or
any one of them an injury, and a certain
ainontt of vindictiveness toward Mr. King
is to be accounted for from the fact of that
gent'eraan having labored during the last
session of Congress for the passage of a
lav to grant positive rank to the
stall officers of the navy in opposition
to the welt-known desires of Porter to appro
priate alljthe honors'of the naval service to the
line. Allyn's enmity to Mr. King is not
unaccountable in view of his discharge from
the chief clerkship of the Bureau of Steam
Engineering. We put the matter before our
readers in this shape because Chief Engineer
King, during many years of service in the
navy, has always borne an irreproachable
character as an officer and a gentleman, and
he is entitled to a presumption in favor of his
innocence until he is proved to be guilty on
more substantial evidence than the ex parte
statement of men who by their own showing
bear him no good will.
But whether Chief Engineer King is inno
cent or guilty, this trouble proves one thing
very clearly, and that is that the Navy De
partment is grossly mismanaged. Practically
there is no head to it, and the fact that
Allyn's letter is addressed to Porter, and the
almost contemptuous manner in which both
Porter and Allyn refer to the Secretary when
they have occasion to do so, show that that
officer is not considered to be even a respect
able figure-head to the department. Ad
miral Porter, who seems to be the
one in authority, has no legal status at the
department, and no responsibility. It is
utterly impossible that the affairs of the
navy should be rightly managed amid such
disorganization, or that ample opportunities
fox frauds of the grossest character should
not exist. The affairs of the Navy Depart
ment are in a muddle, and have been in a
muddle ever since the present administration
assumed the control of the Government, and
no improvement can be expected until there
is a real Secretary of the Navy, who will
supervise the bureaus of his department hiui
nlf and dispense w ith the aid of all irrespon
ible volunteer assistants.

Since we complain of tha conduct of Groat
Britain in our war, it is important that we
should show her practically, as will as
theoretically, how genuine neutrality should
be maintained; and the restrictions now im-.
posed on American citizens furnish a marxed
contrast to the loose system adopted by Eng

A CASK FOR RANDALL.
Wi; affectionately commend to tha tender
cero of Generalissimo Samuel J. Randall
the tangled condition of the Democracy in
the Fifteenth Congressional distriot. There
is a palpable disposition manifested on the
part of the Democratic people of the district
to snuff out the political pretensions of Hon.
Richard J. Haldeman, and as palpable a deter
mination displayed on the part of said Rich
ard and a few politicians he employs to train
with him, not to be snuffed out; and confu
sion worse confounded in the ranks of the
Democracy is the result. A few
years fgo Mr. Haldeman carpet-bagged
across the Susquehanna to escape
the Republican majorities of Dauphin,
which he had assaulted unsuccessfully, and in
1K68, in the face of a large adverse popular
vote, ho bagged a majority of the delegates
to the Cumberland Convention, and jour
neyed to Congress. The Democracy resolved
not to be bagged by a carpet-bagger agaia,
and adopted the Crawford county system to
destroy the cash value of delegates. In the
recent race for a renomination three-fourths
of the Democracy of Cumberland voted
against naldeman and declued Mr. Bratton
the candidate, bnt forthwith naldeman carpet-bags
off to York and Perry, and gets en
dorsements there at reasonable rates for cash
and approved promises, through the rotten
delegate system, and now claims to be the
nominee on the Scriptural principle that pro
phets have honor save in their own country.
York and Perry will of course nominate
Haldeman, and Cumberland, with her three
fourths Democratic vote backing Bratton, will
protest and refuse submission; and as both
cannot well be elected, Mr. Randall must in
terpose under the broad seal of Democracy
and reconcile the belligerents. We trust that
it will be arranged so that Haldeman may be
returned. True, the Democracy don't want
him, but, aa the only remaining son-in-law of
Senator Cameron, he must have a
mission from President Grant if the
people of his district are allowed
to carry out their clearly expressed
wishes to overthrow him. He will do just
as well in Congress as any other Demo
crat, and be has high example in his emi
nent father-in-law for holding high position
in defiance of the people. Considering that
missions are scarce and applicants numerous,
we beg Mr. Randall to provide for Mr. Hal
deman in the Democratic party; and as for
Mr. Bratton, he has been cheated so often
that he is certainly used to it, and may even
like it by this time. For particulars Mr. Ran
dall will please see Mr. Cameron, a nd also
Mr. Haldeman's small political bills in his dis
trict, some paid and others unpaid.
