These frauds which have just been brought to the attention of the court arc said to quite eclipse those for which the County Commissioners were convicted i-t fall, and so sternly senteneeil by Judge Pershing. Systematic peculation carried on by the aid of forgery, ischarg- eJ by the auditors both against the t w nahip and school district officers, • .iiid the District Attorney is preparing o have the guilty parties indicted. The appropriation bills reported by Congressman Randall in the House of Representatives yesterday, show a re duction of some $8,000,000 from the Ad ministration estimates. Former appro priation bills which have already passed showed nearly the same amount of re duction for other branches of the ser vice. With the reduction of the amount to W expended and the breaking-up of the corruption and wholesale peculation that have been going on under the Ad ministration of Grant, the people ofthis country have good reason to rejoice over the selection of a Democratic Con gress in the fall of 1574. Tiie white house is full of trouble. Grant's joy over Babeock's acquittal was doomed to short duration. Bab had scarce returned and received the white house congratulations, before it was dis covered by Useless that Bab stole one of his private letters, and furnished it for publication, and now the fellow whose "goose huug altitudilum" finds himself kicked out of the white-house—Bab was given his walking papers one day last week. What right had the president to expect anything else ? Will Grant still e ready to swear that he has perfect < onfidence in Bab's integrity? Next comes Orville Grant, a brother >f Useless, he has been' having a hand in the speculation in post-iruderships with Grant's fallen Secretary. Belknap. This is coming home pretty closely into the frrundtchail, and does look a little lead. First Bab, his private secretary ; *oon after his war secretary, then broth er Orville. But now it appears that Pierrepont, the president's attorney general, has been guilty of playing false in the whis key trials, and kept posting the crooked whiskey attorneys with what was doing in the Babcock case, thus enabling Bab cock and his counsel to so shape their case that the ends of justice might be de feated. Pierrepont makes a denial which is thin, and the House has now resolved to give him an investigation also. Xow last comes Mrs. Grant. The doc uments have been found which show that she received a present of a lour thousand dollar watch from Gen. lu galls and immediately after Ingalls ob tained a first-class appointment from the president! Mrs. Grant and her old man Useless are "innocent" no doubt, but hang any devil in the Reporter of fice if the thing don't look little sus picious. These things are enough to bust up the white house, and dispel third-term dreams. But they are not all—the end is not yet—the investigating committees say they have lots of the same sort on hand, and the dear plundered, tax-rid den people can look out for astounding revelations. But where does Grant stand, amid all these disgraceful developments against his household and cabinet? Why he was the original present taker, and pro ceeding his first inauguration was the recipient of houses, corner lots, checks, pups, &c., and all the makers of the presents were appointed to high and re sponsible positions after he became president. Shades of George Washing ton, into what hands has our govern ment fallen! A bill has passed the Senate repealing that portion of the act of 29th day of March, 1851, allowing Agricultural So cieties to draw annually SIOO.OO out of the County Treasury. Hope the bill will become a law. as there is no good reason why the taxes of the people should help to keep up institutions too generally used by private parties for speculation.! The President said when the full force of Belknap's exposure broke upon liirn : "Great God! Can I trust any man in this country ?" No, General, better ad here to your old cush principles.—Balti more Gazette. Washington dispatch to Baltimore Sua : ''lt was said to-night by a person supposed to be well informed that with in three months General Grant would be convicted and removed from office by the vote of a Republican Senate." Evidence is said to have been present to the committee on the District of Col umbia, of the payment of $5,000 to Gen eral Garfield, by Nicholson, a contractor under Boss Shepherd, for services in ob taining a contract from the Board of Public Works.

VKR Y SMALL I'AIiTIsA.XSUIP. [Frotu the llarri>burg Patriot A republican governor cannot plow very deep without exposing the sterility of partisan subsoil. One of the m>-t creditable acts of Gov. llartranfUs ad ministration, and one moat unfavorably commented upon, was the appointment of Hon. John H. Orvis, of Centre I*ollll tv, as additional law judge in the Twen ty-fifth judicial district. He might hav< appointed a republican lawyer, in defi ance of the well ascertained choice ol the people of the district, whose term of office would have ended with the fall election succeeding ; but the appoint ment of Mr. er, contained all tne provisions necessary for the publi cation of the transactions ami protection of the moneys of the sinking fund. Moreover, it passed the House and j. sent to the Senate in the shape it was introduced. In the latter body it w.t shornofthe provisions requiring publi cation of sworn statements of the sink ing fund and sent back to the House the emasculated measure which now stand I upon the statute book. All efforts of the democratic minority, both in committee and open house, were ineffectual to pon tile bill in anv other shape than that de sired by republican state officials. Tin only provision they could save was tin one made necessary by the constitution, which made a permanent separation he tween the moneys of the sinking fund and the general fund and put an effect ual stop tothe robbery of the sinking fund principal. At the same time it necessary the disclosure that tin moneys of the sinking fund had been illegally withdrawn to the extent of nearly "three millions of dollars. The original sinking fond art drafted by Judge Orvis was intended to carry into effect the letter and spirit of the constitution. Had it been adopted no further legislation would have I ecu nec essary for the protection of the fund. But it suits the purjiose of evil minded persons to alw ays find in every act some inducing animus of wickedness. In tlii case invention is called tothe aid of in justice. The Patriot never approved of the resignation of Judge Orvis as a mem ber of the legislature even to accept what was a flattering tribute to his tal ents from political opponents. But if the truth were known as to the moving cause which finally induced him to tuk< from the governor a position to w hich, a little later, he was chosen by the peo ple of his district with remarkable unanimity it would do him uo discredit and make his accusers blush. The World's special of <>, says : Pres ident Grant's transparent effort to pre vent Belknap's impeachment is still the theme of almost universal condemna tion, and its disgracefulness becomes daily and hourly more apparent. Said a prominent Western member to-day in a discussion on the subject: "It is the most atrocious outrage on law and the greatest insult to the people that has ever been perpetrated." Daily and hourly also the signs of official quaking and tumbling thicken and the unload ing process is going on with ipore haste than decency. The storm of indignation which has followed the publication of the Piernq/out letter btvs thoroughly alarmed not only lirunt but the whole Cabinet and all the li publican leader*.

It appears to have extended from Quincy.j Illinois, to the northern portion of lowa, and to have been especially severe near the Mississippi river. At some places it amounted to a tornado ami considerable j damage was inflicted. The town of lioxle (ireen, in the southeast corner of Grant county, Wisconsin, near the Illi nois State line, which place has about a thousand inhabitants, mostly lead niin-j era. was struck by a tornado aitout 41 o'clock, Messengers were dispatched to Galena and Dubuque for doctors to care for the injured. 1 liese messengers told a storj- of the most extraordinary de struction of property and life. One of them affirmed that fortv-onepeople had been killed outright or injured, and that , the town was almost totally destroyed. There is no telegraphic communication with Hoxle Green. A special from Galena says that it is impossible to get accurate news from ' lioxle Green to-night. The latest ac- 1 counts give tbe list ofkilled and wound- I ed as follows: Joshua Kicharda, Mrs. John I.ooney, Mrs. Thomas Iticliurds, the wife, mother and daughter of Thos.
