ocrals in Congres took step to ex
pose the rogues, every Radical mem
ber voted against an investigation.
A Washington correspondent says:
"Further developments ol the system
atic plundering of tho government at
the expense of tho poor colored people
aro promised by the continuation of
tho examination into tho mismanage
ment of tbo Freedmen'a Hospital.
Patient have been put on starvation
rations because they dared to preach
ugainst the vulture who havo been
preying upon them by stealing or mis
applying the fund appropriated to
sustain the institution. This is a worse
ease than those of the Howard Uni
versity and Freedmen' Bunk, because
in this not only hu tbo management
been scandalously bad, but coupled
with that misdemeanor is the crime of
cruelty to tho patient placed in the
institution forenro and treatment.
Secretary Schurr. will thoroughly
overhaul tbi coneern, and it ia not im
probable that tho Howard University
will again come In for a share of fund
gatlon, the noccsaity for which will bo
shown by tbo investigation Into its
management which is about to be
made.
Among tho many other things II is
charged that the managers of the
Freedmen' Hospital are in collusion
with the officers of the Howard Uni
versify, situated near by ; that an en
gineer is paid out of tho hospital funds
to pump water up In the University
building, and that University students
board at the hospital and draw pay as
nurses therein without really perform
ing duties. Tho colored doctor Pur
vis, ward physician in tho hospital,
saysol Socretury Schurx : "The damn
ed Dutchman has been making trouble
over since he camo to this country ."
A New Militia Kill. Adjutant
Goneral Latta boa prepared a bill for
the reorganisation ot the militia ot the
Stato. It fixe tho pay of privates,
corporuls, musician, etc., at II 30 per
day for actual time served, and ser
geant at t2 00 per day, Tbo num
ber ol Major Gonorut will bo reduced
to three, and Brigadier to five. Uni
form and eqnipmon'.a are to be fur
nished by tbo Htate out of the 100
ullowcd each company under the ex
isting law. All officers will be exam
ined by a board consisting of a bri
gade commandor and tbe regimental
commanders, before receiving their
commissions, and a board will also be
crealed by tbo bill to examine into
tho physical condition of tho appli
oanta tor membership into the differ
ent companies. Tbe militia ringsters
have a groat time in trying to get
themselves billetod on the tax payer
of tbe Slate for their atistunanco in the
future. Why not join the regular
army, if State support i needed
the wreck ami' rmi that surrounds
them. Hence the latter even when
Iho opportunity is afforded, will not In
vest In enterprise where the possibili
ties aro (hut in a few month after il
may be irrolrioviihly lost. And, as if
to Intensify this statu of toi ling, in
crease tbi want of confidence, blatant
ambitioua demagogues are abroad in
the lund funning the flames of discon
tent, seeking tn array tluss ugainst
claa, and doing all lliey can to persuade
thu capitalist and laborer Hint their In
terests are divergent, as if tho man
who furnishes the means to stnrt the
wheels of Industry and the brawny
hands that perform the work are not
mutually dependent on each other.
Thuy rise or fall together us prosperi

the working classes ponder over tins
matter and not allow themselves to lie
seduced awny by (also leaders who, if.
properly investigated, would bo found
to bo tbe real drones In tbo mdiistriul
hive, whoso vocation is in times like
these to stir up strife and trouble, with
tbe expectation to profit in some way
by it.

pork packer in Cincinnati, wa engag
ed to be married to an educated young
man. Just before the happy day she
wrote ber intended a note in which
she referred to the 'approaching nup-
shal,' and a 'dimund' ring. Tho sen
sitive young man wept over tho or
thography, but he had about madu up
bis mind to sacrifice himself, when tho
dread intelligence came that the father
had failed, and wasn't worth a oont.
He might have forgiven the orthogra

there is in the court a broach of prom,

Washington in this way: "Wo wish
that our representatives at llurrisbiirg
would introduce and urge tho passage
of a bill giving Justices of tho Peace
jurisdiction in cases of violation of the
liquor law. Last week beforo the
Grand Jury of Washington county,
eighteen liquor bill wero found, and
all these must be dignified with a jury
trial. Iho trouble is, and none know
it so well as the rum-sellers, that lew
person are either ablo or willing to
undergo the expense of procuring the
attendance of witnesses at tbe county
seal, und many a jug dealer goes un

this class ol cases could he tried before

so." We presume tho gentleman re
