ASSVIlAN BULLS.
Uarson J. V. Newman, who is a sort
of intellectual prompter to tho While
House, and who is uiid to huvo com
municated to President liraut, from
time to time, more than two hundred
and fifty valuable ideas, now recom
mends that tho United Stales go into
tho Bull business. It is not slock rais
ing that Newman means. Tho St.
Louis farm never paid, und Newman
is too sagacious to suggest tho repeti
tion of un unprofitable experiment.
Nor is it a Wall street operation ho
has in mind. Former ventures of tho
White House in this direction, although
perhaps pecuniarily successful, huvo
not been such as to command popular
enthusiasm or to win votes for u third
term.
Parson Newman's bulls are Assyrian
bulls, tho bulls of Nineveh and Baby.
Ion, which hnvo lain under dirt heaps,
neglected and unciircd for, for centuries;
winged bulls with human heads and
long beards and pluintivo features that1
appeal to tho peoplo of America for
notice nnd protection.
Newman saw and pitied tljeso in
teresting creatures whon ho was lust
in Asia performing his official1 duties
as Inspoctor of Consulates. Ho also
saw that they are fast betnir dtiif un
by Mr. fioorge Smith nr.d carried away
to tho British Museum, und that soon
tho entire bull population of Nineveh
will bo brought under tho debasing in-
fluenco of monarchical institutions un-;
less the United Stales (iovernment
bestirs itself to immodiuto action. He
beseocbes Congress to appropriate $10,
000 at onco and send nn accredited
agent of tho (iovornmcnt to disinter a
few doxen of tho vonorublo animals,
lead tlym gently down the, valley ol
tho Tigris to somo seaport of tho Per
siu u (iulf, nnd embark them upon one
of Sccor liobesoh's ships of war for
passngo to America. Vh. is $10,
000, ho pleads, especially when it comes
out of the public pocket, and when you
are getting full-sized bulls for your
money, all sculptured over with lovoly
cuneiform inscriptions, as interesting
as Bessie Turner's book or ns ono of
Bishop (iil Haven's best sermons?
(rant and Newman cannot do bet
tor thuu to follow up this idea as a
third-term measure. Let them for
bear fomenting a religious war that
will bring misery to communities and
households, and nothing but ruin and
disgraco to those who instigate it,
Hero is a chance for something cfTec
tivo, and at the sumo timo porfectly
harmless. Let Grant and his promul
gators of valuablo ideas tako our ad
vico and make the Assyrian bull ques
tion, along with Anti-Catholic ques
tion, one of tho issues of tho coming
campaign.
If the subject were properly set bo
foro tho country; if tho organs wore
to tako it up and show that our national
honor, or perhaps our national oxis-J
tenco, is involved in our treat mont of
these helpless relicB of antiquity ; if!
Muit woro to draw hulls appealing to
Columbia in various attitudes of sup
plication ; if Eugeno Lawrence Were
to transfer his attention from tho mod
ern to the ancient Babylon ; if some
body woro to organize Bull Brother
hoods in every State, perhaps tho poo
plo would arise in their majesty and
demand Assyrian hulls, nnd voto for
the cnndidiilo who was already pledged
to tho bull policy.
.Mwiniiii snouiu ai once put Ins ulea
in tho form of a bill, and gel somo'j
imru-ierm v-ongrcssmnn to iniroiiuco
it. Tho bill might ho ridiculed by
triflcrs like Sunset Cox and Proctor
Knott; it might even tail to pass the
Democratic House. Hut in tho Senato,
if brought forward and advocated by
Hannibal Hamlin, to whom the measure
would appeal with all tho power of
early associations and strong contem
poraneous interest, it would surely I
meet with friendly nnd thorough dis
cttssion. There is no knowing but what, in
tho storm of popular enthusiasm that
would onsuo, Gen. Grant might ride
into a third lease ol power, mounted
on tho back of a venerable Assyrian
bull, whoso chiselled features should
bear a weird resemhlnnco to those of
the iinfnthoninblo Newman. N. Y.Sun
OIIANTISM IN TMl T It HAS V BY
DEPARTMENT.
Tho retirement of tho Second Comp
troller nnd Third Auditor of tho Trent
nry, with several ol their subordinates,
for passing tho Sugg Port and Wilow
ski claims, was to havo been exjioclod
and ought to hnvo boon required long
ago. Instead, however, of being nl
lowod 9 resign, they should hnvo beun
summarily dismissed with tho brand of
disgraco on their brows, after tho
claims woro pronounced to bo"fictilions
and fraudulent" by a hoard of Treasury
officials.
These two cases serve to illustrate a
chronic and corrupt system, which is
an outgrowth of Gmnlistn. The claims
In quosticm were allowed without the
least pretence of such examination as
tho law proscribes, in violation ot Iho
usages of Iho department, and solely
upon tho urgent demnnds of two mem
bers of Congress, both of whom were
in tho worst possible odor nnd notori
ous for more than venality.
II. H. Hutler, an ox-nioniber finin
Tennessoo, who was most Influential in
passing tlio Sugg Fort fraud, had been; jegiment in Mexico and commanded
indicted and tried at Washington, fbrj tho Twolfth Corps, Army of the Polo
forging powers of attorney ami pro- mac, and tho Twentieth Corps, Shor
ctiring pensions duo to widows in his man's armv. Ho was univemnHr r.
(Congressional distriiit, a osoiipml
conviction by tho barefaced illusion :
known as A Jobber In Cougross and the
departments, and had lost all pertonul
standing, Ho 1, now under Indictment
at Washington, and will probably bo
cleared by one of the packed Juries
which habitually outrago justice at the
capitol.
It would toem extraordinary in view
of these fucts, how two such men could
exert such exceptional iufttionco as
they did in those cases, or could bo
permitted to Interfere In anyway with
tho accounting officers " 'he Treasury.
iho explanation is thai they wore ex
treme llepublicnns, who advocated and
supported tho most violent measures
they were Hlso pronounced third - torm

and operated ns a nnssnort throuirh tha
departments, fmm which they should
huvo heon excluded. Timid officials,
with tho fear of removal boforo their
eyes, were ready to yield to such pres
sure, und tho corrupt ones woro too
glad of a seeming opportunity to
strengthen their bunds by Congres
sional protection.
Dr. Brodhcud, tho retired Second
Comptroller, had held offico lor mora
than a generation, and had become a
more time server.- Knorinoiis claims
wore decided by the clerks undor him,
some of whom havo acquired a public
notrioty fifr being purchasable, lie
signed their awards without scruple.
Ho was alio a member of the Hoard of
Audit to settle the accounts of tho
Washington Iting, and in that capacity
signed whatever papers Boss Shop
herd's former clorks presented.
Mr. I'titlicrford, tho retired AudiUir,
wus a carpet-bagger who squatted
down in North Carolina, und who, like
his class, nover fnilod to improve uny
opportunity within rcucli. Tho sus-
"t im "cthods of doing business in
his office long ago utlructod attention.
but ho was truly loyal to Grant, and
that devotion was a shield until his
miscondnct threatened serious difficul
ties for tho Administration.
Tho changes now mado are useful,
and may temporarily cheek tho plun
der of tho Treasury. Hut really they
only scratch tho surface. Tho whole
organisation, with honorablo excep
tions, is demonilizcil. and in inniiv
"ranches ut lorry rotten. Combinations
hnvo long existed between clnimageuts
and lobbyists otilside und officials inside
tho Treasury, by which bud claims aro
not only put through, but tho host ones
are scandalously Muck mailed. Tho
agents who aro tho intermediaries of
this extortion are ns well known at
Washington as the President himself.
They arrange tho terms with confed
erates who havo to pass upon tho ac
counts, and who can reject or admit
churns at discretion. The practice is
to suspend action until a bargain is
made, and when all tho formalitios arc
completed, to rush through tho award
by concert with the checking oftlconi,
Tliere is no menus of estimating tho
amount of tho frauds that havo been
comnntteil in this way, because it
could only bo approximated by a
Ihorotigh exploration of tho claims, tho
testimony, and tho laws under which
awards were made. But there is a
widespread belief that tons of millions
havo been stolon and divided among
Rings, while a considerable margin baa
been applied to party usee In tho
States, and to tho support of third-
term organs. Like tho machinery of
tlio V hisky King, this thicvoVy was
carried on in tho name of the iiepubli
ean causo, aud Comptrollers, Auditors,
and clerks, oithor closod their eyes to
the most daring frauds, or colluded to
mako them successful for a Bharo of
tho spoils. Xrw York Sun.

Tho Danbury Arm says : Now that
everybody is talking about Cbandlor,
who is in tho Cabinet, tho following
story, a reminiscence of tho war, and
which wo boliovo has not appeared in
print, is applicable to Iho timos. Con.
Williams was. but a Brigadier. Ho
was competent, bravo, able and con
scientious, but ho was not advanced in
promotion, much to tho astonishmont
of thoso who know his worth, but wore
j unacquainted with tho feeling Senator
I Chandler enterluined against him.
.handler and Williams wcro both from
Michigan, and the former bated the
latter with a hearty hatred, and scru
pulously guarded against any advanco
mont that might lio offered bun. On
the General's stniT was Lieutenant Col
onel , n bravo man and a blunt
talker. He went home on a furlough,
and on returning in tho cars to Wash
ington ho was seated with a gentleman,
who, noticing that ho was nn officer,
opened a conversation on tho way.
Tho talk finally drifted to tho Lieu
tenant Colonel's position.
. "How do yon likeGoneral Williams'"
asked the gentleman.
"Tiptop," quickly responded tho
Colonel.
"How is ho liked in tho army?"
"No man ia more thought ol than
he, both by officers and men."
"A bravo man, ain't he ?''
"Ilo is that, if there Is ono in tho
service."
"Good execulivo ability, perfectly
sober, and bus the confidence of his
superiors?" pursued tho stranger.
"You couldn't havo sketches! him
more faithfully had you known him
from Infancy," replied tho officer.
"Then, if ho possess all these good
qualities, how is il bo is not advanced
in position ?"
The officer hesitated a moment as if
busy thinking, and then said ; "I'll tell
you. sir, just what the trouble is. Ho
j is kept hack from preferment by a
Senator from his Mate, a d d drunk
en hog, called Chutuller."
"Young nuin," blurted tho stranger,
"I am Senator ('handler from Michi
gan." The conversation was hero dropped.
Shortly after his return lo his post,
Iho Lieutenant Colonel rccoivod an
oiiler frjm tho War Department re
manding him to his regiment. '

duet a largo business, tliuit in tCoso
j "
Idun yenin when eveli tho careless
extravagant, reckless, and rash could
not escape making money so lung as
thuy bad anything kt aell. It is tho
keeping of monoy, tho wise disposition
of it, that indicates business capacity,
ruther than the more fucuHy of mak
ing it when tho opportunities, are
abundant. If one-tenth part of the
men who made fortunes between 18G1
and 1871 hud had real, business pru
dence, Bound, practical heads, coolness,
and self-control, tho number of our
prosperous citizens would be mony
times what it now is. They lacked
thoso necessary qualities, so fur as tho
keeping of money is concerned, and
tho result is that they now must pay
trihtito to those who had them and
used them in preserving ruther than
in hazarding.
A correspondent of tho Million pre
sents facts and figures to show that
business is not improving. The iron
business, ono of tho greatest industries
of tho country, has not boon profitable
during the year; furnaces .and foun
dries nro closed in large numbers, and
only thoso run which uru favorably
situated for cheap production. In
lumber Iho manufacturer has actually
lost in 1875. In woolen and cotton
manufactures prices have declined seri
ously, amounting in tho case of cotton
goods to from leu to twenty per cent.
Mills are closed in many places. The
circulars of the large dry goods manu
facturers show that very nearly all their
stock is for sale now at lower prices than
a year ago. ( If the 5,334 failures with
liabilities of $131,172,503, 1,771 -with
liabilities of $54,323,227 occurred in
the third three mouths of the year
an excess of about 200 failures and
$20,000,000 liabilities over tho second
three months. Tho number of failures
has steadily increased ; 8,050 In 1872,
3,887 in 1873, 4,371 in 1874, and 5,334
in 1875, taking nine mouths of Iho
year.
Thoso facts aro certainly significant,
but they indicate rather the economy
oi mo peoplo man nil actually un
healthy condition of trade. The nuin-
bcr of failures shows only how far the
shrinkage jatvalucs has alfected bouses
which wcro doing more business than
their capital justified. Though the
privato culamity is great iu such cases,
yet the public really gains by tho dis
aster which attends suoh weakness.
The houses that stand are strength
ened, and a premium is put on consorr
alive business management Tho
weeding out process will do good, and
decrease tho hazards which always ac
company extended credit. Tbit salu
tary ofTect will contintio until business
again goU into speculative channels,
when tho fuilures will again increase,
and more weeding out will hnve to' bo
done. ,,..,.
The most serious outlook is in manu
facturing. The condition of our manu
factures as a whole is not encouraging,
although Ihey aro much nearer bard
pan than they havo been for yoart.
They cannot long remain in their pres
ent stagnant situation, and Iho greater
oconomy which uow governs tho man
agument of tho facloriea enables them
to produce fabrics at nearly aa low a
rate as they did before tho war, and
yet save a fair margin or profit.
What tho people of the country.wbo
aro themselves so closely economizing,
demand of tho Government, is that a
liko rigid economy shall control its
expenditures. Expenses municipal,
Slato, and national must everywhere
bo brought down to tho lowest attaina
ble figure. Tho party that does this
will get tho suffrages of the peoplo, in
spito of Grants Anti-Cutholio third
