rilE OFFICE-GAME*.KUS AT WASH
INGTO.V
Never in the history of this govern
ment Ims there been such a rush of of
fice-seekers lit Washington as has been
witnessed during the last two months.
Frorti all sections of our land aconstant
stream of hungry seekcis after govern
ment pap, has been popring into the
Federalcapitol,until every hotel, board
Ing house, brothel, street, lane and alley
are tilled with the heterogeneous mass.
Carpet-baggers, scalmwags and negroes
from the South, long-legged Yankees
from the New England States, burly
ex-contraclors and political gamblers
from the East and West, tumble into
the city, pell-mell, to besiege the de
partments, and, with open jaws, beg for
crumbs from Uncle Film’s table. Nev
er was such an army of patriots seen be
fore, and may we hope that such an one
may never be seen again? They are a
greater ]>est, a greater bore, more n»v
enous and destructive, than were the
lice and frogs of Egypt. Many of them
are the very scum and froth of Ameri
can society—toadies, thieves, vaga
bonds and charlatans.
This rush for oflice is a bad symptom
—a symptom of decay and corrui lion in
in our government. Too many men
now a-days hope tu make aliving with
out labor. They fasten their eyes upon
the people’s treasury, and yearn for a
grab at it. Fully two-thirds of these
dependent creatures are totally disqual-
Hied lor the positions they seek, but
they care not for that their object is
not to serve the government, but them
se res. A Washington correspondent
o. a Republican paper says :
‘•The fearlul depravity manifested in
oiiietul ci rrles here i W uMiingtmi,) lar ex
c< eds anything ever befoje known, un«>
il has become so open ami palpable lhai
leading Radicals are expressing great di&-
gtiel.”
During the Lincoln administration,
the rush lor office exceeded anything
ever before witnessed, but since the in
auguration ol drain it is estimated that
there are ten applicants for position
where there was one* under Lincoln !
Why is this? Flow comes it that tin
lawyer forsakes his books, the farmer
h s plow, the mechanic his shop, tl e
scholar his studies, to seek oflice? '1 he.*e
men, by following the trades or prof« s
siuns of which they have knowledge,
could make more money and feel mon
independent than they can hy accept
ing of a $1,500 or S?,OUO oflice. Why
are these situations so much cov
eted ? .because of the demoralization
of our people. A chronic laziness ap
peais to pervade the Radical party, ano
about one-third of its lollowers enter
tain the idea that the balance of tin
pi ople must keep them. Its “big bugs’"
make their lens of thousands through
the operations of a prohibitory tariff,
ami its “ small fry ” expect to keep sou.
and body together by holding clerk
ships at Washington No wonder that
“ leading Rj.d/ca/s are expressing great
di.-gust” at this disgraceful scramble
for oflice. it is enough to make any
man feel disgusted, for it is a reproaeb
to our nation, that is attracting the at
tention of all other countries. To plun
der the government, however, appears
to be the leading Radical principle . and
until this grasping, thieving, black--ami
tan party is wiped out, we can look lot
neither decency or honesty. The gov
ernment is rocking like a ship on tlu
billows; the people are pressed to tin
earth under the load of taxation placed
upon their shoulders by this party that
was conceived in hell and born at Chi
gogo; the Union is dissevered ; a mill
tury despotism rules the South ; and
yet w« see tens of thousand* of stalwart
men—men of all grades and professions,
whites and negroes-wending their way
to Washington, hoping to be quartered
upon the government, and to see the
great wooden man who uttered tlie Ci -
ceronian sentiment, “let us have peace.”
God help us !
Jackson vs. Vrnnt.
There is a marked contrast between
•Jackson and Grant in their removals.
When Andrew Jackson became Presi
dent he refused to remove any of his
old companions in arms. President
Monroe appointed Colonel Solomon
Van Renseller ns Postmaster at Albany.
New York. 'Jhe Colonel was a vet
eran and wreck of the war of 1812
Tnere were a number of applaan s
for this place, but old hickory re
fused to turn out the gallant soldier, al
though he was opposed to him in poli
tics: Contrast this conduct to Grant's
rempvingftich soldiers as Itfsecrans,
Kilby Smifff, Knipe, Averiii and otb
e s, to give place to mere politicians.—
Ho stands in about ns unfavorable
■ alight when contras'cd with General
Taylor, another soldier. Giant has
summarily removed from a small ollhe
in Greenville, Tennessee, Andrew
■ Johnson, Jr., a son of the late Presi
dent. When General Taylor became
President he found a eon of his late op
poneht, General Lewis Cass, the Minis
ter of the United Stales at Borne.—
General Taylor declined to make any
change, declaring that it would seem
like an indelicate act fur him to do so,
anil would subject him to the suspi
cion of being governed by personal mo
tive*, ‘
Dr. (osvicno.v a cvs-
Ni’llt.iCY,
Wo mentioned some time since that
Dr. Mudd,nnoof the victims of Stan
ton’s packed military court, had re*
turned trom that plague-spot, tho Dry
lortums, having been pardoned hy
President Johnson a few days previous
to the end of Ids. administration. Dr.
Mudd is in very delicate health, and
very poor, his tine estate having heel*
gobbled up by tho attorneys who de
fended him at his mock trial. He is
now with his family, in Maryland, a
broken-down man. He talks unreser
vedly concerning his trial and convic
tion and sufferings, and assorts now, as
he did before his trial, that he was ns
innocent of complicity with Booth in
the murder of President Lincoln, ns a
babe unborn. He says he bandaged
Booth’s fractured limb and gayehim an
old crutch, and this was the head and
front of his offending. Of the assassina
tion of Lincoln he knew nothing until
the day after Booth hud called on him
professionally. He says he lamented
Booth’s great crin e as much as any
man in Maryland, for he regardcd.it a
monstrous piece of wickedness, as well
as a calamity to the country. Of his
mock trial he thus sp« ke to a friend
who spent an evening with him at his
residence, recently:
“ Not a man of them sat on my trial with
an unbiased and unprejudiced mind.—
Before a word « f evidence was heard, my
case was prejudiced, and I was already
condemned on ihe strength of wild rumoi
and misrepresentation. The witnesses
perjured themselves, and while I wussft
ihur tlier* in that duck, listenlnglo tladi
monstrous falsehoods, I felt ashamed o'
mv species, ami lost faith forever in all
mankind. That men could stand up in
that Court ami take an oath before Hea
ven to tell the truth, and the next mo
ment set themselves to swear away, hy
downright perjury, the life of a feßow
man,, was a thlirg that I. in my innocence
of the world, never thought possible.”
That the conviction of Dr. Mudd was
effected thiough perjury, and that per
jured witnesses were in’the employ ol
the infamous wretch, Stanton, the then
Secretary of War,and by him instructed
ns to the testimony they should give, is
now believed hy all. Stanton knew
that Dr, Mndd was an innocent man,ns
he knew that Mrs. Surratt, who was
hanged, was an innocent woman ; and
it was necessary therefore, to hire aban
doned scoundrels tcTswear au;ay the life
of the one, and the liberty of the other.
Stanton wanted blood, and he got it.—
Hr. Mudd escaped the gallows by the
“ skin of His sentence to
the Dry Tortugas for life, wits a com
promise. Stanton was very anxious hi
hang him, and had almost a quarrel
with the members of his packed Court
because a majority of them refused to
succumb to his demand. The Court
agreed, however, that Stanton iniglu
hang Mrs. Surratt, “an innocent wo
man,” and this appeased the wrath o'
of the War Secretary, to a certain ex
tent. Mrs. Surratt was hanged—mur
den d, we should say’—and after that
Dr. Mudd was conveyed to that hell
upon earth, the Dry Tortugas. During
his journey to his dismal place of. ban
ishment, he was hound in chains and
manacles, and his treatment (by order
of Ft nton,) wa« at once brutal and al
together unnecessary’. In that place of
'orment Dr. Mudd suffered until Presi
dent Johnson knocked off hisshackle.-
and set him free.
Now, why w>s it that Stanton was
so anxious for the blood of Dr, Murid
and Mr*. Surratt, both of whom he hnw
ro he cntiorly" innocent? Ond alone
knows. It is. one of the unfanthom
able mvsterics. Neither Dr. Mudd
or Mrs. Surratt, had over placed a straw
in his path, and why he selected them
for victims, will not he known, we pre
sume, until the day ofjudgmont.
Stanton, wo see it Muted, is in feeble
health, and some ol his friends fear Ins
mind is affected, fine of these friend*
who called on him recently’, found him
much dejected and suffering mentally
ami physically. “Over taxation of
mind and body in the War oflice cause*
.his prnlrastion of mind and body,”
we are tod by a Washington corres
pondent of a city paper. No, no—that
is false. Stanton’s guilty conscience Is
’ashing him with a whip ol scorpions.
Mrs. Surratt’s image haunts him by day
md hy night, and like Banquo’s ghost;
a ill not go down at his bidding. He
fears that Dr. Mudd, now free, may kill
him; and these fears and imagination*
combine to make him mi-erahle, wretch
ed, and almost insane. Stanton may
make a full confession before he oies,
and if he does, and it is truthful, he
will acknowledge himself a monster in
human shape, and may explain why he
wanted the blood of Mrs. Surratt and
Dr. Mudd.
THE “CRAWFORD COUNTY SYSTEM.*'
For the information of the candidates
before the Democracy of this county,
and all others, we again republish the
*y*tcm by v\ hich the party and the can
didate* are to he governed hereafter.—
Last summer, both beforeand after the
adoption of tins so-called “Crawford
"ounty System,” we published it for
several successive weeks for the infor
mation of all concerned, and that our
Democratic friends might become con
versans\vith its provisions ami require
ments. We now give it again, hoping
that all may make themselves fapTectly
familiar with the new mode of nomi
nating.
The friends of this new system are
sanguine that it will work well. Certain
it is, it cannot work worse than the old se
cret ballot delegatesystem-asystom that
hail been eorrupte I to such an extent
in tills county, that it stank in the nos
trils of honest men, ar.d was used by
political gamblers as a money-making
machine. The wishes of the democracy
in the selection of candidates wereoften
'otally disregarded, and men were often
declared the nominees of the Conven
tion who hadsignally failed (in the elec
tionof delegates,) before the people. We
have known a candidate to receive
the votes of delegates in Convention,
when it was notorious that said candi
date bad not three friends —peihaps not
one—in the township these delegates
represented, or, rather, misrepresented.
I Ve know , positively, lon, that delegate*
to our ConvoiUo is have received bribery
money for their vote-; tints betraying
their own people, and at the same time
stultifying and disgracing themselves
God help tlie man who has tints offended
against the party, against decency and
against himself. .More anon
ft ilhetlier the “ Crawford County Sys
tem" will effect a cure lor these crimes
against the people, and root out the
evils complained of, rhmains to he seen.
The new system is not our bantling;—
we were hot even consulted as to the
propriety of its adoption. . But it was
adopted almost unanimously by those
who voted yea and nay on the subject.
Let it have a fair trial, therefore, before
it is condemned. It is utterly impossi
ble to head off entirely corrupt men by
any system, but our now mode of select
ing candidates, we feel satisfied, will do
much tiTcncourago those who have the
welfare ami honor of thepartyat heart.
But, to the new system itself. Hero it
is:

“ UIIF.X UOUUEBFALL OCT,” Ac.
Senators lions amt Cameron on C. S’s Ap

They’ had a rich debate in the U. S.
•Senate n few days since, over thespoils.
A number of Radical Senators feel that
U. S. has snubbed them. Like Mr. Wil
kins Micawher.they havebtenwai ing
latiently “ for something to turn up,”
hi*t thus far no crumbs have been ten
dered them. Rossund Cameron partic
ularly feel sore, and speak of U. S’s
appointments in bltterai.dscathing lan
guage. We extract from their speeches
us follows: %
Mr. Ross. —Mr. Speaker, scarcely a

In nut in.-ianee u gallant soldier, emi

officul records of thp incumbents all go
lor nothing, when weigln*d ag dust that

in my estimation, of those who are the

" The soldier may look buck with prole
and satisfaction upon the record of Ids

call the bloody scenes .of that history, all

hunger and toil and of mortal danger
cheerfully borne in behalf of the Country
he loves. He may think of the limb .eft

It must be remembered that Mr.feoss
is a radical of the stralghtest sept, that
he supported Gen. Grant during the
late canvass, on the stump, and that
but the other day he had sufficient in
fluence with his political associates in
the Senate, hi have one of Grant’s ap
pointments rejected. He oughtto.be
a good.witness with our radical friends.
Mr. Camkhon (Pu }, followed Mr. Ross.
He said a great many improper appoint

enough in oilier respects, but not lit for

Peiin-ylviiiiia would have recommended

within ilie lust few days—a man from
Pennsylvania was nominated for a con
sulate without consulting either of the
Senators. It turned out that lie was a

If i lie practice now wits, as in the olden

Beoaiors would (eel their responsibility,
and sign no papers for impioper persons.
Although no appointments had been
made to gratify him, or of those whom

■Washington, April 24,1809.
The Senate adjourned on Friday, and
the grand farce la over until December. —
The pressure upon members of Congress
continued until the Inst, and there are
still thousands ot office seekers In the
city. It is estimated that there are 42,000
offices, great and small, in the gift nf *he
government. For each of these offi-es
there are ten applicants. This presents
A noble army of 420,000 Radical office,
beggars. Throwing out the negroes who
voted for Grant in such. Southern States
as were permitted to vote, and about one
man iu five of nil who voted for him are
now asking to be paid therefor from the
public treasury. Think ol the vast busi
ness interests of the. country, our
laws, our legislation, everything . con
•cerning the public welfare, being
confided fo a party iu which every fifth
man is a-beggar for some position which
will enable him to be supported at the
public expense! Every fifih man in the
party proclaiming himself a public pau
per, and ti eso beggars ruling mid recon
structing the nation! Verily this Is
doing pietty well for a party* cf great mor
al ideas!
Kpeaking about offices, another batch
of one hundred clerks was discharged
from tire Treasury Department, yes
terday. Their places have been filled by
new appointees, six of whom are coal
black negroes. If this thing continues
much longer, our Radical friends will get
migldy sick of it. This I hing of remov
ing irhilc Republican* and putting black
Republicans in rhe*r places, don't go
down so well. Tile fact is General Grant
is beginning to bore the country.by Ids
obsequiousness to the infernal nigger.-
It is all well enough In treat these blacks
witli civility; It is their due; hut,then, is
it not also the right of even the inferior
wiiite race to receive some mensurable
respect? We note it as a remarkable,
a very remarkable circumstance that,
when a delegation of citizens of these
United States goes to the White House,
it is almost a matter of course that it
meets hindrances to admission, while
equally a matter of course that a deputa
tion of negroes ia at once received and,
for lire most part, favored with a set ad.
dress- Now.lt cannot he that the while
deputations are presumed to come for of
fice and the black only to burn incense,
as we not only hear that Cut! 1s as keen
for place as any of the worthies of the
viler hue, bul we know from the appoint
ments before the country Jhat the black
sycophant receives offices ns well as the
while. Why, then, the insulting dis
tinction? I recall at least three in
terviews granted by the present occupant
of tile White House to negro delegations,
mid in eaeli interview a speech. Will
any journal friendly to the administra
tion point us to any three while delega
tions similarly favored under the new
regime ? Not long since I remember,
in particular, that n number of Metho
dist clergymen, after ttie close of tlmir
convocation proceedings in, Washing
ton, paid a visit to Hie functionary wfiose
success their denomination did so much
to secure, and were then and there fobbed
off not only without a speech, hut "ith
ont even the ordinary salutation of a
hand shake alt round. And yet, look
yon. hereon the Ifillt inst., another cler
-1 al d ■nutation, this time b'aok as E e
bns, calls at the White House, is forth
with admitted, unlimhers its spokesman
and fires a speech, and, in turn, is sain
ted with a confessional sort of declara
tion from the great man to the effect that
lie " was glad Ids administration so far
ha't been satisfactory to them. It had
been conducted according to conscien
tious principles, and would be hence
forth.” It is a matter of conscience, then,
is it, to exhprt these blacks ; lint where
comes in Hint equitable consideri tion
which appertains to those whose blood
and whose suffrages exulted lids scorncr
to Military reputation and civil place ?
An examination of the legislath n of
Hie last Congieaa shows that twn million
five hundred sixty-three thousand nine
hundred and fifty-one dollars lias been
appropriated by Congress to supply defi
ciencies. I want jour renders to under
stand what “ deficiency hills” mean. It
is tlieduly of the principal officer in Hie
various departments of Hie government
to make an estimate of Hie amount nec
essary to pay all the expenses in Ids de
partment for the coming year—and lids
in time of pence, cun he ascertained al
most to a cent. It then bee mes Hie du
ty of Congress to appropriate tile amount
thus called. for, which is almost univer
sally done to Hie full aiiioun demanded,
with several thousands of dollars in ad
dition, as a miscellaneous fund. The
appropriations of last year are used up
and Hie expenses are not paid. Why. do
you ask? Simply because Hie ship of
Slate sprung a leak, and $2,(>33 951 have
stuck to Hie fingers of our honest radical
office holders because they could not rub
it off, and Congress must now supply the
deficiency. But then i»e should not
complain. •• Republican” office holders
are honest men, and nobody but a cop
perhead would complain. $2,503,951 is a
small item, and it only stuck to “ Repub
lican" lingers.
The closing hours of the Senate were
enlivened by a “ spat” between Sprague
and Abbott, a carpet-hugger, from North
Carolina. In his recent speech Sprague
used the following language:
“ Mr. President, in answer to the tir
ade of the Senator from Nevada ami the
Senator from North Carolina, I am ie
minded «l a little illustration. In my
travels from the centre here Into the ru
ral districts, through the woods ami
farms of the surrounding neighborhood,
chance, at one time, brought me to a
farm-house. I discovered, Indooklng up,
a large inastitTuml a mongrel puppy dog.
“The little dog moved on me whh ra
pidity from behind, bit at my heels, and
frightened at his own temerity, ran how
ling away followed by his larger com
panion- The Semite will observe that
the mongrel, whining puppy.’encourag
ed hy tile mastiff, and emboldened to
make the attack from the shadow of his
backer, run rapidly away, alarmed at his
.temerity, while the overgrown cur fob'

In reply to this, Abbott, bn Thursday
evening, said:
“ When I arose in Executive Peaa ; on,
some time ago, to ask that the doors be
opened, I said that I did not intend to
utter anything unbccomlngon this floor.
What 1 intended to do was to ask the
Senator from Rhode Island if he Intend
ed to apply the term “ puppy” to me, as
Is implied in the connection ,ol that lan
guage. If ho did intend to apply it to
me, my purpose was to ask him fora’re
traction, as full as the implication of the
language, and if he refused that retrac-
tion;' my intention was to.ask for satis
faction out of this Chamber. I now give
notice that inasmuch as that Senator h is
skulked out of U»e Chami er, that 1 in
tend to have satisfaction outside of the
Chamber. 1 *
It 1b rumored that a duel will grow out
of the affair. Sprague has said that he
will not fight a duel, but can be found at
any time in bis accustomed wu’ks, and if
Abbott lays violent handsou him ho will
kill lilfn. and many persona believe that
Sprague is n determined man and will do
just what he says lie will.
Sprague’s recent financial speeches, in
which ho charges all manner of corrup
tion and dishonesty. upon the. Radical'
party, huveawakend considerable inter
est.’ Although he has said nothing new:
or startling, there is something In the
fact that he has turned statcs-evidence
and reveals the sweltering corruption of
the Radical party. . Sprague Is a queer
little fellow. Instead of a broad-shoul
dered, full-stomached man, as one would
think a millionaire, a governor, a gener
al and a tfenutor ought.to be, he looks
like a ..narrow-shouldered, smooth-faced
hot over five feet five inches high,
with an eye glass, a bashful maimer
quite alone and reserved, and having the
appearance of a young divinity student.
He is one of the least frequent speakers
in the Senate. He has sat silent lor.sev
en years, and now seems determined to
make up for tost time, for ho has been
speaking every day for a week.
The Senate ventilated itself on someof
Grant’s appointments, last week. Old
Winnebago Cameron was particularly
severe on the President—** ho had nomi
nated a constitutional drunkard to a for
eign mission, ami a conatitutimiaMhlef
to a consulship.” The Senate seemed to
think It was a good thing to hear Camer
on talking about thieves being recom
mended and appointed to office, after his
endorsement of George Berguer for. the
Harrisburg Post Office.
