that bo had loaned a large portion of

that that eminent "Christian Bunk

year' ago succeeded in palming off on
the Assistant Treasurer at Now York
$25,580 worth of counterfeit bonds
and coupons. The Treimurer, us soon
. as be learned that tho vouchers were
counterfeit, called Mr. Cooka's atten

luko them back. The Treasurer
. brought suit, and lust week obtained
a judgmont for the amount against
1 that bankrupt firm. Had some "poor

upon the Treasurer, ho would ere this
be housed in some Penitentiary, wbilo
the "christian banker" is only annoy

wrongfully drew out of the Treasury.

of the Board of Charities aro reviewed,

The balance in tho State Treasury

f "Come f Joint."
Four weeks ago Grant sent the
name of his "chum," George II. Wil
liatns, into the United States ' Senate,
and at-kod that body to confirm him
as Chief Justice. Nearly everybody,
except Grant, seemed to know that
Williams was wholly unfit for the po
sition, nnd begun to manipulate for
his defunt. Both Grant and Williams
were solicited to withdraw from the
contest by tho more diet-root portfan
of .he pnrly. But no, they would
not "haul off." Such dispatches as
tho following were daily sent over the
wires: . ...
"WaasiauTot, DecM Tin President hi de
clared most emphatically that ho will not with
draw (lie name of Jude Williams. Tlia Senate
muit confirm bim or lake the rrsponiibililj."
"WiinncTol, Jan. .--Judge Wllllam'i nam
will not be withdrawn, lie says if he it rejected
by the Senate be will withdraw from tlio Cabiuet."
This is the manner In which Grant
attempted to menace Sonators, in or
der to bring about the confirmation of
his "butty," Williams. But finding
that the Senate was not wholly de
moralized by tho Creuit Mobilier af
fair and the Salary grab, "tho govern
ment" tacked about, and the fullowiug
epistle was given to the publio:

This letter is 'Hillielent proof that
Williams was unfit for tho position he
was aspiring to. "Tho government"
that day withdrew William's numo
and that of Briatow, which was. sent
in for Attorney General. It is evident
from this thnt Williams, is going to
"slick," although ho threatened to
leave the Cubinot if he wus rcjoctod
by the Scnato.
This man Williams was as poor as
a "ohnrob mouno" lien li oumo lu
Washington, a few years ago. ant bo
and his wifo boarded in the third sto

street every day driving a pair of
"spanking" bays and tho finest car
riage on tho avenue, and they are
spending from $10,000 to 812,000 an

Williams has (100,000 in cash, and
this has all been, acquired nn A ?o,oo0

This tact gavo rumor, this week, to
certain wonderful stories of what wan

Tho subsequent action of both

all this. J. hey littvo all taken tho

Both Houses are laboring earnestly
to conform in thoir legislation to its
provisions. ' Committees have been
appointed, who havo reported now

seems, to strive their utmost,' in their
desire to bring tho work of tho con

Col. A. K McClure, of Philadelphia
has offered a new bill, in the Semite,
amending tho election law, according
to the new constitution. 11 is care
fully drawn, and contains every con
dition, not-essary lor conducting and
making returns of all elections. It
repeals nil election laws in tho State
thnt aro local or speciul, and extends.
in lieu thereof.the general election law.
This bill directs that a Judge, two
Inspectors and two Canvassers aha
be elected in each voting district,
every year. 'J he duty ol the Can
vnssora is somewhat similar to that uf
assessors. Thpy will make a registr;
of votersin Augnslof every year, end

on tho list cunnot voto, unless ho can
prove the payment of taxes and other
necessary qualification. If any onp
be limited on the list and his vote be
challenged, it will only bo received af
ter the oath of a qualified Voter has
been takon, that he know him to bo
entitled to a vole. Hourly accounts
aro kept by the election officers of the
names of voters who cost their votes
within that time. Tho returns nro
fully protected after tho closing of the
polls. Tho result of tho enliro day'
voto is announced publicly from tho
election window. As the city of Phila
delphia has no local election ofllcers,
ami as tho election will occur on the

will soon pass. It is now up lo tho

Good ! Good 1 ! President Grant,
after withdrawing tho nami of bis
friend Williams, has sent to tho Son
ato Iho namo of Hou. Caleb Gushing,
for Chiof Justico, to tho astonishment
of all Radicaldom. It is leas than two
weeks sinco his namo was sent into
tho Senate and confirmed as Minister
to Spain. How tho "copperhead" is
going to lill both oil: ccs wo cannot
understand. One thing is clear lo
our mind: tiranl has got so deep in
tho mud with his own parly friends,
that ho must now cast for some Dem
ocratio statesmen to pull him nut. .

On tub Uoad. To judgo from a
special despatch to Chicago il would
not bo surprising to aoo ox-United
Stales Senator Pomeroy, at no dis
tant day, filling a similar position in
the Kansas Stale Penitentiary to the
ono now held by Boss Tweed at Black
well's Island. Tho despatch alluded
lo tells us that Pomeroy's bail, $-0,-0U0,
bus been doclnrod forfeited, tho
application for a conlinuaco being de
nied by the poprt. Tbo Governor js
to issue a requisition on tho Governor
of tho District of Columbia, and a dips-
senger will leave with it Inside of
twenty-four hours. Again, il Is be
lieved that the briber will nprer bo
triod, but at the caso stand it puts
him in tho position of a criminal at
large without hail, and liablo to arrest
at any time. J?exlt , - !
Crantltm illutlratetl in a Poi'
matter.
Tho sailor who is accustomed to
climb aloft looks down without giddi
ness on scenes below, bnt tlio lands
man's bruin reels and swims.' The
mountuin hunter gueca: with little
emotion on ttlaclers, .tiroci pices, nrul
olmsniii, which strike tho travels!
dumb, wilh uwo. So since the. advent
uf G mutism tho American people
have learned to look unmoved on im
mense accumulations of fraud, and to
gnzo without ditzines into tlio depths
of corruption that in earlier limes
would havo astounded iho wholo
country, and excited to fronty all its
citizens. .'
After Cnsoy and Baboock and Shep.
herd, no official meannoss or dishones
ty can be startling, but even yet it- is
astonishing that Bunnell should bo
retained as Postmaster at JJenvor,
Colorado. Creator scamps havo un
doubtedly been tho tho causo of great
er injury .to tho country ; but none
has done moro in proportion to his
opportunities. For a long timo par
ties receiving their mans ui the Den
ver. Posloflluu com plui nod of tho do
lay or noii-reception of letter and pa
pors. This was particularly the ouso
with thoso whoso politics wero not sul
Isfuctory, or who woro personally on
unfiiondly terms with Bennett, as
most of tha inhabitants of Denver
wero ard are. When inquiries wero
mado at the Postofflco the questioner
wore snubbed or abused. Al last it
became so intolerable that nn Investi
gation was domandcrj at Washington,
and Spocial Agont Fury was sont to
Denver. Upon learning that Bunnoll
was the intimato' friend of Delegate
ChafTeo, Mr. Fury displayed grout
zeal In whitewashing linn. Ho laid
tho stuff on thick and fast, but al
though Fury found Bennett almost
and altogether lovely, and .such a
postmaster appointed by Grant ought
to be, no amount of plaster could con
ceal the fuct that bo was a dishonest
follow, . ...
Tho editor of n small opposition
newspaper in Denver now took tho
matter up, and discovered the missing
letters and journals in the abodes of
certain Chincso washermen, to whom
they had been sold. Whole packages
of Ihe Christian Union and Tlir Sun
were discovered In theso place, a nl
so copies of the Chicago 74iifie.Cin.
cinnati Commercial, Cincinnati Inquit
er. Now Orleans Pieayase, liunsa
City Timet, and other papers. . With
tho exception of one or two, which
probably fell in by mistake, they wor4
all opposition journals, iho China
men refused to tell from whom they
had obtained lbo pnpers.but they were
found in package properly directed,
and with wrappers suporscribod with
tho names ol wbll known citizens;
and il whs aftorwards ascertained that
in the distribution of the pHpcr mail
most of ihe opposition newspapers
were thrown into a basket and sold In
bulk at seventy-five cents a hundred,
beini; delivered after dark. But up
on Fury's report Bennett was kept
in ollice notwithstanding.
The case, however, is so abominable
that the people of Denver, both Re
publicans and Democrats, are yet agi
tating it, and it will require all the
porsonul influence of Delegate Chuf
ieo, who ia Grant's boon companion,
to save Bennett. But wo cannot bolp
believing that he will rave him. - A
President who can stand by Williams,
Shepherd, Casey, and Cooke, cannot
be expected to revolt at such a kuuvo
as Bennett. JV. Y. Sun.
Tuats So." Tho editor of th
Chicago Times hits a loyal prcaoher,

spending a good deul of timo in try
ing to prove thnt tho 'old mil spliter"

proachcr is out in n four column argu

Christian. J I the preaohers would
consume half as much pnlemio am
munition in defending Christianity
itself against tho assaults of tho un
believers as they are wasting upon
ihe fUlile attempt to show that ono
undemonstrative unbeliever wus not
an unbeliever, their lubors might bear
more important fruit.
