"All the 1 democratic candidates for
speaker of the next house of representa
tives play poker. and on the avergc a

Well that's not as bad as with the fcl
lowsin the Bulletin's party they adgct
the "poker."
The Pope has sent a sevrst note to
Spain. Here is food for the third-term
ers, and liraut should demand an ex
planation. This note undoubtedly
means a conspiracy to upset American
institutions, and smash our school sys
tem. Surely Grant did smell a mice
when he made the Ues Moines speech
a few weeks ago. A secret note to
Spain ' what the deal does that mean?
Vp and at 'am, Granties, and hurrah for
a third-term.
The Chicago Times becomes unusual
ly severe when it remarks that an ex
change new apapcr expresses sympathy
for Grant, in that his friends, one by
one, are dropping off into the Peniten
tiary. But when his friends are all cor
raleil, perhaps Grant will want to join
thenl in the penitentiary; and it isn't
necessary for him to add much to his
present record to entitle huu to admis
sion. This kind of talk will not please
the Gaiette very well, which is just now
engaged in picturing the transcendent
beauties of a Third Term.
Gen. M'Donald, Grant'* bosom friend
and boas of the great St. Louis whisk}
frauds, has been found guilty. A dis
patch of "J".* ult., says: To-day has been
devoted to sj<eech by counsel iu the M'-
Donald trial. Judge Chester 11. Krum
spoke for the defense, and Col. Dyer,
District Attorney, for the prosecution.
The case was then given to the jury who,
after consultation for nearly three hour-,
returned a verdict of guilty on all counts
of the indictment, eight in number.
Goes to meet Boas Tweed.
The third-term question is gaining
new life, notwithstanding Grant's letter
to Harry White, which want to say that
he didn't and that he did desire a third
term. Any eight year old school-boy
could tell that the letter was ambiguous,
and now Want's own late sayings and
the language of his kitchen-organs show
plainly that he is trimming his sails for
a third-term, and that his White letter
was carefully trimmed with a loop-hole
for his popping out for a third time.
All federal office holders, and radical
newspapers which enjoy fat advertising
jobs from Washington, are proclaiming
that Grant is the only man to lead their
party to victory next year, and that he
must be nominated for a third term. A
majority of the radical organs are oppos
ed to Grant's third-term aspirations, and
declare that he will meet with over
whelming defeat, and from present ap
pearances the subject is likely to raise a
row in that party.
The Harrisburg Patriot has been im
proved lately, and appears as an eight
page daily. Always a good paper it is
now better, and as the leading demo
cratic organ of the state, should have
the most liberal support from the party.
If we desire to have a good organ—and
we can not do without one—it must
hare a good support.
Ex-Governor Clifford, president of the
Boston and Providence railroad, re
quests the directors to cut his salary
down one-half rather than reduce the
wages of the workmen on the road.
Herein iaan example worthy the im
itation of Grant and Ilariranft. While
the pay of the laboring man was going
down, down, down to the starvation
point, their wages were doubled. We
do not expect to hear from either of
these officials a desire to have their pay
reduced until the wages of the poor man
get back to a comfortably living figure.
Says the Times: The more closely
one looks into the crooked whisky de
velopments, the more the suspicion
grows that somebody very near to the
President was friendly to the ring. Let
ters signed "Bab," and attributed to
Babcock, were shown to distillers by the
dishonest officials who were corrupting
them. MePonald.who has been chief
of the ring for three or four years, was an
intimate friend of Mr. Grant, and had
influence enough with him to procure a
revocal of Bristow's order changing the
districts of supervisors to detect the
frauds. McDonald was seen riding with
the President on the avenues at about
this time, and when he returned to St.
Louis he left with the latter a splendid
team of horses. Colonel Grosvenor says
in his letter, that when Mr. Grant visit
ed St. Louis McDonald was much in his
company, and on one occasion, when
they were at a fair together, the Presi
dent having praised a pair of horses,
McDonald bought them and gave them
to him. These things alone would be
disgraceful and suspicious enough, but
they are not all. When Mr. Bristow
prepared his grand coup d'etat upon the
ring, he distrusted Chief Clerk Avery,
who turns out to have been one of their
Washington partners, and took nobody
into his confidence except Solicitor Wil
son. The utmost secresy was observed,
and up to the time when the papers
were put into the President's hands for
his signature, neither Avery nor any
other confident of the ring knew that a
■torm was impending. Yet no sooner
did the papers reach the President and
come to the knowledge of his private
secretaries, Babcock and Luckey, than
the telegraph flashed to St. Louis this
emphatic warning: "Lightning will
Strike to-morrow." The leak may have
been elsewhere, but iu view of all the
fiacts, the conclusion is almost irresisti
ble that some member of the President's
household furnished the information ups
on which that dispatch was based.
Congress meets next Monday. The
house is largely democratic, and a lively
canvass is going on for the Speakership.
Randall, of Philadelphia, Kerr, ofjndi
ana, Cox, of Yew York, Walker, of Vir
ginia, and one or two other democratic
members, are candidates for the posi
tion. Randall and Kerr are the strong
est, but it is thought that neither will
have enough to elect, and that a cpp>
ptVWW CMUvUUstti will be chosen.

needs it, and if Moody and Sankev can
succeed tu oouvPFtiiig the Long Brunch
sea-gull, it would amount to a great deal
in the honest administration of the gov
ernment. But Grant is too fond of horse
races, dog and cock tights, to pay tuuch
attention to spiritual affairs, and then it
would be a bigger job to convert the old
smoker than any two men would like to
contract for. It would require a thing
like the Wayne station camp meeting,
one entire season, to makeaa impression
on I'seiess.

ty that a ring of speculators has been
systematically defrauding the Potawa
tomie Indians, who, until recently, oc
cupied a reservation near Topeka. The
principal charge is that certain member
of the tribe, living in the Indian Terri
tory, were represented as being dead,
and their estates were administered up
on and the proceeds pocketed by the
riug. The amount realized bv the
scheme is estimated at f JU.QtX*.

And now another pet under Grant is
coming to grief. The case of Avery,
Chief Clerk of the Internal Revenue at
Washington, indicted for complicity in
whisky frauds, was called in the United
States District Court at St. Louis, on 2"hl
ult., and both parties being ready to pro
ceed, a jury was empannclled aud the
trial commenced. The indictment
contains four counts, charging that Av
ery had knowledge of fraudulent pratw
tices by Bevis A Fraser; wilfully failed
to report the same for the purpose of
aiding said tirm in its practices, and con
spired with McDonald, Joyce, Fittro),
Bevis St Fraeerand Ulrici to defraud the
government ; also, that in the further
ance of this conspiracy he and his co
conspirators did perpetrate the frauds
for which they were organized.
Assistant Attorney Bliss opened the
case for the prosecution, marking out its
line of action, and stating what it ex
pected to prove. The jury is composed
of Nathan Cole, a prominent merchant
and ex-mayor of this city, two retired
merchants of St. Louis, and several gen
tlemen occupying respectable and re
sponsible positions in interior towns of
the State.
TO LSD EM SI FY OR AST FOR 1.0 s
ISG THE TIIIRl) TERM.
Washington Correspondence of the
Chicago Journal: There is, however,
a scheme on foot, with the object of con
ferring continued honor upon President
Grant, which I must regard as fairly en
titled to the candid consideration of the
public. The scheme, or rather sugges
tion, hers referred to, grew out of the
fact, which will not be denied, that Gen.
Grant, in accepting the Presidency,
made a great pecuniary sacrifice.
Two plans in connection herewith
have !>een canvassed. One is a pro]>os
ed amendment to the Constitution. "
This is, iu short, the suggestion of a
new article to the Constitution provid
ing that every ex-President of the Uni
ted States shall be, ujon his retirement
from office, except by impeachment, a
Senator of the United States at Large for
life.
Another plan is to specially provide
for President Grant, without waiting for
a general provision on the subject. This
plan is simply to declare by law that ex-
President Grant shall be (Jensraliseiino
of the army. It is a proposition, in a
word, to place him again at the head of
our army, by the creation of a new of
fice, made expressly for him during his
lifetime, and without at all interfering
with the pay and emoluments of the
present General and Lieutenanb-Geuer
sl. This proposed plan would he in al
most exact analogy of what was done in
the case of Washington, who after his
retirement, and war was threatened with
France, was declared Generalissimo,
and actually held that office for some
time, though never exercising its func
tions in the field.
Sueli are the proposed projects as to
President Grant as I get them here.
They are not, of course, talked about on
the streets or in the saloons and public
club rooms; but those who arc uhle to go
behind the scenes and get at the inside
of things—the open secrets of this polils
ical metropolis—know that these things
are being constantly talked about by the
initiated, and are likely BOOH to fake
shape and come before the public.

which is naughty. If tx> good lode that,
you swear mentally (but I have heard
Some swear openly and call tha firm bad
' names , and at past you decide to accept
1 the invitation.
Un arriving at the meeting you had a
unzcd assemblage, about half smoking,
I ar-.J most of thern in the best humor ; but
there are a few sour creditors who have
, old fogy notions of right and wrong. One
. of the creditors, perhaps only on paper,
jumps up and says, I nominate Mr.

Mr. Smith, oi.a of (he firm, what ho meant
by stating to him a[month ago that he had
$.00,000 stock, and only owned $30,000.
MR. Smith replies in a bland voice that
"the gentleman who spoke last must have
mi-understood the tenor of his remarks at
the time he mentions."
Irate old creditor says he "rather thinks
he did not, and is ready to go on the stand
and a - ear to it."
t'p jumps another old fogy and "wants
to know how his books stood on December
31."
Mr. Smith replies that his books wers
not "balanced."
Old fogy "wants to know why thsy were
not balanced."
Air. Smith REPLIES because they could
not make them "balance." [ Laughter )

"he does not see that talking will mead
