I sin about to tell relates to one of my I"ranc-'l' ireurs. My Lieutenant presented him one evening at the bi vouac.

Ile, hail long, light hair, Nvhich curled over \ his forehead with silky softnegs, like those of a madonna. The fact is that he out my ideal of a soldier, and his blonde curls displeased me. •' 1)n you take my company fora girl's boarAling-sehool*."' said I, to the Lieu tenaht. " Where the devil did you fish out this young The young. man blushed ; he preserved a calm thee. " Your inune?" said 1. " (limner." " Your age " I will be twenty in six months." " Are you sure of it lie looked id Toe and smiled. " I will be, if I out not dead then." " Will you be brave lie suddenly assunicd a position which pleased toe. " I caunol tell, Olptai 11, but I have an idea that I will do credit to your com pany." He said this with calmness and sim plicity. His eyes, despite their gentle ness, looked directly into your face, and in the cut of his face and the ensciiibk of his traits there was something which announced determination. We were not together ten minutes when all toy apprehensions disappeared. 1 learned that he was an orphan ; that Ids mother died while lie was young, and that he had known trouble. His lather had been killed by a fall from a horse, and lie, with two young sisters, hail been left in charge of an uncle.— His sisters and himself had discussed war and the unhappy fate of France, and his sisters seemed to imagine that Ilse heroism of Gentler would immor talize his name and save France. One evening Gentler came to we in a condition of lively agitation. "Captain," said he, "there will be a light todnorrow, and we will not take part in it. Sonic regiments are being 'missed between Ivry and Biectre, and the combat will be desperate. Permit me, I beg of you, to Pit me join them." lie added that he knew an Aid of leneral X-- - , and that he eould be assigned to stall-duty. leon,enh-d, and it couple of hours later lie returned with the desired permission. That evening we were together. We were both apparently in deep thought, when lletiner suddenly asked. "Captain, do you know what fear is?" Fear! yes, parblieu! first time that I undertook to waken gallant declaration to a pretty woman, I found out all about the malady. I was more dead than alive, and 1 trembled like the leaves of a willow. I was not wrong in being scared, for the very first word 1 spoke, 1 was shown the door. She was a pretty brunette with a lively air, but she was robustly faithful to my Col onel. I forgot to say that he was her husband. And do you believe that I have never dared to present myself be ihre her". In fact, I asked or an ex 'But, Captain, in battle, did you never have any fear? The lit: 7 3 Lime you were under tire?' ' Eu Wen! it was in Africa, upon the limits of our possessions near Biskra. A tribe had revolted and it was neces sary to reduce them; and dame ! the Arabs shoot well. I saw my comrades falling at my side. Soule of the new ones, by a mechanical movement, shrank down their shoulders as if they wished to make themselves smaller; and at the same time I heard about my ears a very singular hissing. It took me some little time to comprehend that it was bullets that made this hissing. And then, would you believe it, in spite of myself, 1 experienced an emo tion, and constantly dropped my head in order to rid myself of this whizzing. A pure matter of imagination ! In a lit tle while the combat became terribly serious, and I thought no longer. It is easier to die than it is to think." ' It is not death wilich one need fear, it Is cowardice. 414wever, I hope to do my duty," lie added, us if speaking to am certain of it,' I said. Besides von have given proof that you are Brave.' ' You must not say this,' he said, with sudden emotion, ' when there are those here who know the contrary. You who have never known fear do not know what it is to have this vertigo. Let me swear to you that the thought that I may be going to death in a little while does not alarm me. You remem ber the post on which you placed me on the morning of the 19th of Deceniber? It was a little cross-roads; on one side a high wall and on the other some bushy heights. I had my back to this height; and my face to the wall, beyond 'which rose a wooded hill. My duty .i'._.1),...1c ,•.3E4lt/tat)e/ 4 sradtigeit?,c.t. was to watch this wood, in which was supposed to be concealed the enemy. He was well concealed, for I could per ceive no living being under the shadow of the foliage, and not a sound made itself heard. To my right, upon an ascent of the road, one of my comrades, Gilbert, was like myself in ambuscade. Lower down, to my left, there was a soldier of the line; but the road made a bend between us, and I could only see the point of his bayonet, as it flashed in the sun. The forts thundered con stantly, and I could hear above my head the heavy flight of shells. In the distance, musketry and the discharges of mitrailleuse shattered the air, and were followed by discharges of artillery. My blood boiled. I listened anxiously. It seemed as if our men, advancing, had gained the ttrram, and my heart bounded; and then there burst forth confused clamors, and irregular and frightful noises, to which there suc ceeded a depressing silence. Contra dictory emotions—hope, fear, anguish— secmed to choke me. What most afflicted me was that the combatdid not approach in our direction, and that we were debarred from taking any part iu it. I wished to climb the hill at my back, from which I thought I might obtain a view of the battle, but you had fixed my place, with an order for me to remain there, and I dared not move. ' Several boors, as it seemed to me, passed in this waiting. At different dines I believed that I heard precipitate and confused steps; then I fancied that I felt that trembling of the air which is produced by men ill flight!, and the idea of a retreat, a rout, pa,sed like a cloud over my thoughts ; nut I had repressed the thought. Fly! French soldiers in flight! that could not be. Besides, the battle was still in progress; the artillery and tile mitrailleuse still intermingled it rage. A shell fell near me and bur,t, without, injuring me, but covering me with dint. 1 had no fear, but anxi ety devoured me. Some spent balls, coming from I know not where, struck or rolled in' the dust of the road.— \Vhat was happening? What was the meaning of the noises I heard ? \Vas it victory or defeat? I low could I find out? I looked for Gilbert, but he had disappeared. Perhaps he was kill ed. I dared not leave my post to ascer tain. To my left, Ino longer perceived the bayonet of the soldier, mull thought he might have been recalled, and I had been forgotten. It was just then that., above my head, I heard a violent breath ng,:then a shaking tit' the branches, and from the midst of the parted bushes there appeared the mile, frightened face of a Z stave. ito glanced up mid down the road with a haggard eye. Ido not know that he saw me but he could not open his mouth. lie made, without speaking, a grand gesture—one inex pressible—one full of discouragement or malediction, and then lie disappeared. This man, this apparition, this mute flight, froze me. Suddenly there came :tit oppressive and profound silence, such as one sometimes meets ill the midst of a tempest. It scented to ine that I re mained alone in the world, anti that, this day, there was passing under the sky everything that was strange, horri ble, frightful, and, being no mere mas ter of myself, 1 wished to save myself at any cost. I rushed toward the crest of Ilse heights. I was advancing, when I soddenly felt myself drawn back. I endeavored to advance; lay gun caught among the bushes, and was held, as if seized by an invisible hand. And then, my Captain, a fear, an insensate fear, seized me. A eltitul passed over my eyes. Everythingswain about me ; anti throwing iny gun behind me, I lied. Yes, monsieur, I fled like a coward, without knowing anything, without seeing, anything, without thought, antl recovered myself only when near l'aris, at a short distance from the ramparts l was suffocating ; the blood boiled In my arteries, and it was several 111011Iellt, before I could recover myself. "Some drunken soldiers were press ing toward one of the gates, around whom was all uneasy c.owd that inter. rogated them. " What is it ? What has happened I' came front all directions. "Ah, well," said one, " it is 'mulling only we have been routed." " Ilut when" Where? Were yot surprised' Have the munitions giver out?'' asked a crowd of men and womet who surrounded a soldier. " Munitions!" replied the man, will druoken impudence," we have not burn ed a single cartridge since we were rout ed this morning." " I threw a glance full of rage and in dignation upon the man, and then I re membered. The truth presented itself. \V hat had I done? All, monsieur, I was seized with tortures which I Cali never describe. Yes, the naked truth presented itself to me. In my fancy, I saw you, my captain, my brave cont. minions, my sisters, France, betrayed and my honor lost. Pardon nay tears but the remembrance kills me. I bur ried, anti ran, but this time it was to ward nay post. I went to recover the arm which I had thrown away, an then to die. My resolution was firm absolute, mid I feared only one thing that I might not be able. to find the wall. I called to my aid all my coolness in order to fix the points of the compass, and, when I had established my direc tion, I started back. Almost immedi ately there appeared in sight a company of soldiers, WllO were maraing in good order. The retreat had begun. I con cealed myself so as not to be seen by the soldiers. They marched with a firm step. Their faces were sad, but they carried their beads high, like men who had done their duty. " I hurried my steps. The artillery kept up its thunders, and protected the retreat of our soldiers ; at times scattered volleys of musketry burst out across the Ids, " Perhaps there may be a stray bullet for me," thought I, as I hurried on. " Suddenly I recoiled ; a body lay be fore ate, that of a Frenchman, with a ball in his forehead. All about the earth was torn up, the branches torn, the hushes trodden down, and debris of all sorts littered the ground. However, I pushed on. I recognized the field that I crossed in the morning, but all was changed. The copse had a battered ap pearame,as if cut tty a heavy hail-storm. Ilroken branches every where were sus pended from the trees. Upon the hills beyond me there moved, under cover of the woods, some shadows in silence. It was the enemy, as was proved by a sud den discharge of grape-shot directed at a French column which defiled at a lit tle distance from where I stood. I con tinued to advance. still there were bodies, this time Prussians, in pools of blood, and with shuttered arms. War is frightful. ' But I did not stop to think. I push ed on, when there suddenly appeared a man at about a hundred steps from me, coming out from a road towards which I was going. As lie saw me, he stop ped, and aimed his piece at me Aly first, movement was- to jump behind a tree; but, monsieur, a blind rage sud denly seized me, when in his hands, I saw my own gun. I threw myself for ward at the moment he tired, and my foot catching against a stone, I fell to the ground, and the fall undoubtedly saved my life. I had fallen in a fur row, and I saw my enemy immediately move toward me to assure himself, probably, whether I was killed or only wounded. I had no arms, and I resolved to feign death, and let tarn reach me.— When he was close to me, I bounded to my feet, and threw myself upon him. He was surprised by this sudden attack, turned about and endeavored to pull his revolver. He was a vigorous man, but I had, at the moment, a superhuman strength, and the struggle was brief. I wrenched my gun from him, and re coiling a step, 1 struck him with all my force. The bayonet entered his breast, and, extending his arms, he fell heavily to the ground. A little calmness came to me, when I felt myself armed anew. I had be come again a soldier, a man, and I dared face your eye. But you will com prehend,Captain, that I did not consid er this account settled. I have a debt to pay, which I hold Myself bound to pay in blood, and, unless I pay it I am a coward.' No declamations.' I said, putting my hand on his shoulders, for he had be come excited in speaking. I You lost your head and committed a criminal act. It is to be regretted, without doubt, but you forced yourself to repair it at once. You triumphed over a perverse instinct. You have subdued the fright ened bete which rebelled, and,have re stored it to its duty. This is well, and proves that you are right at bottom, and that, henceforth upon your guard, you will hold yourself .in obedience Ouly, be calm, my boy, more self-possession. With these, one always seestclearly and marches right. You see that pale light on the horizon? It is dawn. If you are still determined to assist in the fete which is preparing, it is time to set out, and may good fortune go with you.' I gave him my hand, which he press ed with emotion. "Adieu, Captain!'' said he, with a grave voice. I called him hack. " One word, Gentler. Be patient ; do you understand? I order you to be pru dent. There is no necessity of you being killed, for your death will not save France, or eradicate the disaster of Cha tillon." He smiled sadly. saluted me with a parting gesture of his hand, „and went away. I followed him with my look, for he interested me, and I was well pleased with his honest sincerity. I had enough experience of human nature to know that his adventure exhibited in dications of a right and energetic soul. He had certainly displayed more cour age and resolution in retaking his gun than would have been required to guard it originally. He was but a boy, and he had allowed himself to be overcome by a feverish, nervous excitement. Fur the future, I was sure of him. I now remembered that on the day of his adventure I had lost sight of him since morning, and that I had begun to be uneasy about him when he made his appearance. He came iu out of breath, and covered with blood. 'Are you wounded catue from every side. Nothing but a scratch in the fore head which is not worth mentioning.' The sound of his voice struck ins, and it seemed as if, since morning, it had changed its tone. lie threw a Prussian helinet at my feet. ' 1 killed the man who wore it. Ile was, I believe, a Bavarian officer.' • Bravo!' I said, striking him on the shoulder. 'You are the youngest among us who has returned with a trophy.' • Yes,' replied lie, bitterly, 1 have captured a helmet, but we have lost I was not a participant in the fight ing that occurred on that day from I,"Cay to Thiais and Chavilly. I only saw the procession of wounded, and it was a most cruel sight. In the eve ning, I learned that Gentler had dis• anguished himself, his coolness and in trepidity had been remarked, and lie had been publicly complimented. Gen. who is an excellent judge of such matters, proposed to are to attach him definitely to his staff as a reward for his cervices. I sent this offer to Gentler, who refused it. l'p to the lath of October there oc• eurred nothing of importance. On that day, we received intelligence that the enemy was to be attacked between Bagneux and Chatillon. A hash of joy illuminated the countenance of Cl Nt. last!' he exclaimed, with a 100 chick expressed his hope. The French troops were divided into hree corps, without counting the re- Trve. One of our divisions received orders to march on Vanvres and Clam at while soother attacked from the rout of Ilagneux. As for us, we were letailed to operate between the other wo, 0.11(1 to alllO'Ottell in the face of the position at Chatillon. We were sustained by several battal ions of the line, and a heavy artillery force and Mobiles, while my company was marched at the head of the attack ing column. The attack was made vig orously, and, in its progress, it became necessary to attack a house which had been fortified by the enemy. To do this, a series of barricades and walls, Lehind which the enemy was located, had to be carried by the bayonet. The spirit and dash of our troops were mar vellous. Every obstacle gave way be fore them, and the enemy was rolled back iu disorder. However, having re ceived reinforcements; he rallied, and at once took the offensive. Our sol diers, inflamed by a desire for revenge and by the hope of victory, did not yield a foot. t-ilieltered in turn behind trees and in the houses, they resisted with energy. The Prussians,greatly out numbering us, made a determined effort to drive us back. .Just then I saw a swarm of Prussians advancing toward a farm-yard in which a troop of Mobiles hail entrenched them selves, and whose entrance they had barricaded with broken carts, furniture, mattresses and every-thing which came to their hand. From behind this the Mobiles held in cheek a Prussian de tachment. I was a short distance away, in a cem etery, in which my command was forti• tied,as if in an entrenched camp, among the tombs and among the ashes of the dead, whose repose we profaned. From our position I could overlook the farm yard, and I could discover that the Prussians wereinaking..• preparations to surround it. How COU Id tile Mobiles be warned or the impending danger? I made a sign ; Gentler marched forward He saw and understood my motion. A savage shower of balls saluted his pas sage, but, happily, he gained the yard and passed in. There occurred, at this moment., in the little block-house, a lit tle hesitation of which* the Prussians availed themselves to advance. The tiring was at once resumed with an in furiated vigor. A portion of the Mobiles endeavored to make a breach iu the walls foregress, while the °tilers remain ed at their already hall-destroyed barri cade, protecting their labor, and among them Cienfier, -- VihO charged and dis charged ,its piece with the precision of a eeterah. It was thus 1 saw him, as lie stood erect in a cloud of dust and smoke. -- Then there was a frightful dis charge of musketry, and I no longer saw anything. The Prussian troops advanced in com pact masses, supported by their rein forcements, and our retreat was sound ed. To guard the prisoners we had cap tured it would have been necessary to advance in force and bring on a general engagement. This was evidently not in the plan of our leaders, as they re called us .at a moment when we had everything our own way. Everybody stormed, but it was necessary to obey orders, and to fall back from positions which our men had so gallantly earned at the beginning and afterward held. The day, however, was a glorious one for us, and the enemy had paid dearly for the right which we yielded to him of retaking his positions. Our losses were much less than his, and apart from the disappointment of yielding the cap tured battle•ground, everybody was satisfied. . . - I was marching back with my coin- I mand at an alert step, with my Franc- Tireurs, at least such of them as had been able to join rue, when I was met by a member of the society of Geneva. 'Captain," said he, as he pointed to a house from which floated theambulance Hag, 'there is one of your men who is badly wounded.' I followed him into one of the town halls, in which, on some improvised beds, they had disposed of some of the wounded. In a chair there lay a varcusc, a long blue belt, and a hat with black plumes, and near by, on a mattress, I recognized Genner. Good heavens, how pale he was, and what a change had conic over him in a few hours ! His shirt opened, and red with blood, re vealed his chest crossed with bloody bandages. He was in a sort of drowsy stupor which resembled death ; his right hand clutched hisgun , from which lie would not be separated. Close by his side was seated a sergeant of the Mobiles, who contemplated him with a mournful air.' 'He saved us,' he said, 'but it has cost him dear.' He had fallen upon the barricade, where he remained till the last, and the Prussians, after the light, had sent him to our hospital. I interrogated with a glance the surgeon, who sadly shook his head. Poor Genner! I saw in a moment, as in a dream, the streets of a peaceful vil lage, a quiet mansion, two young girls, who stood together, who thought of their brother, who waited for him arid hoped to see him again. I would have willing ly given all my happiness in this world to:have saved this poor boy; to have taken into my own breast the three balls which had destroyed his life. ' I do not know whether or not he heard some noise, or that he divined my pres ence, but he opened his eyes and•recog nized me. " And Chatillon ?"! he asked, with a feverish and burning glance. He did not know the result of the day, and hesitated to reply. • Genner, without a word of complaint, without a sigh, turned his head and closed his eyes. Soon, after some comrades came to an , 'pounce: to Genner that he was going to be mentioned in the order of the day ; he heard them, and, turning to me said It is impossible ; and you know well, that it ought not to be. You must pre vent it; the honor must be reserved to those without fear and without reproach. I cannot steal the esteem of any one.' , ' Genner,' said I, " you have to-day saved the lives of many persons at the exposure of your own. Why then do you hesitate to pardon yourself?' I have savest some men, he said, sadly, but how many others are dead, my Captain, and how many others will die to retake the redoubt we have aban doned? Ah ! it was there I wished to fall, in trying to plant our flag, but God has not permitted it. And how many lives must yet be sacrificed—oh, this blood, this blood—' A sudden sob convulsed his chest, and then his voice became firm. ' You will write to my sisters, will you not? You know where, Captain, at Fountainebleau.' ' I will console them, and when they know all, Genner, they will be proud of you. `No, do not tell them all, Captain. However, they should not be deceived. Tell them nothing except that I am dead. Tell them just this, and that I love them.' His voice grew weaker. We could scarcely understand him. His eyes closed, a long broken sigh came from his chest, and then he was quiet. We leaned over him breathlessly, lis tening painfully. All at once he opened- wide his great eyes, straightened himself out, then sprang forward. 'Chadllon is ours!' cried he, in a loud, clear voice; and then he fell back mo- Lion less. ureeblen !' said the Sergeaut, lie was a gallant soldier. Early Rising The following suits our theory land practice) to a fraction : All this talk about early rising is moonshine. The habit of turning out of bed in the middle of the night suits some people; let them enjoy it. But it is only folly to lay down a general rule upon the subject. Sonic men are lit for nothing all day after they have risen early every morning. Their energies are deadened, their imaginations are heavy, their spirits are depressed. It is said you can work so well in the morn ing. Some people can, but others can work best at night; others again, in the afternoon. Long trial and ex periment forms the only conclusive tests upon these points. As for getting up early because Pro fessor Gammon has written letters to the papers proving the necessity of it, let no one be goOse enough to do We all know the model loan, aged eighty : "I invariably arise at live; work three hours, take a light break fast—namely, a cracker and a pinch - of salt; work five hours more; never smoke, never drink anything but bar ley water, eat no dinner, and go to bed at six in the evening." If anybody rinds that donkey fled sort of life suit him, by all means let him continue it. But few people would care to live to eighty on these terms. If a man cannot get all withered and cramped up on easier conditions than those, it is almost as well that he should depart before he is a nuisance to him. self and a bore to every body else. School-boys, and young people gener ally, ought to get up early,for it is found that nine-tenths of them can stand it, and it does them good. But let no one torture himself with the thought that he could have been twice as good a man as he his,if he had risen every morning at daylight. The habit would kill ball of us in less than five years.

For several years all the bright hues were so exceedingly bright that no well-dressed woman would wear them on the street; and black became, in consequence, the most stylish wear for walking-dresses. Now, however, a line of goods is offered of such unobtrusive tints that, most:beautiful promenade costumes can be formed from them. Decidedly the Fall fashion for costulnes is the Polonaise, and this has assumed quite a new form. It does not sit quite tight to the figure. On the front the shoulders and bust are fitted perfectly, and the waist is just outlined, but the seams do not keep quite close to the form, thus preventing that ridge which will always told in at the point where corsage and skirt meet. The .tek presents a very antique style revived ihere is a seam clown the middle as well as two side-pieces, and those three seams are stiffened with walehone and continued to the extreme point of the pannier, where the fulness of the skirt is s uddenly thrown . • . out in two deep plaits, and then caught up and bunched in with two large bows. The Polonaise is made quite long, and also looped at the sides, so that the front breadth falls in deep folds. There is something very novel and striking in the form of this garment, and we shall ere long, doubtless, see our eiegantex disporting ther .„ 4-seives on Fifth avenue in this singular / evival of a very antique mode. BISMARe B. FAILLE. A very elegant dress in light Bismarck faille had the underskirt ornamented with a bias llounce lined with chestnut-colored Satin, and set on in deep flat plaits, so that at every fold the upper edge was caught down, displaying the lining. The upper garment consisted of a Polonaise in the style just described, the corsage ornament ed with folds to imitate the plaited waists so much worn in the Summer; the lower edge of the skirt garnished with a flat side plaited ruffle, lined like the under flounce. Bows of the mingled satin and silk orna mented the front and looped the Polonaise. BONNETS. When gazing upon the new importations in bonnets I could not but wonder who would have the audacity first to wear one of these extraordinary structures, the style differs so decidedly from any heretofore worn. The crown is high and square, the front very flaring, and there is somewhat of a cape at the back, altogether a much larger head- - ebyering than has appeared in several years. _One Marie Antoinette opera hat was of a sort of faded-saffron-colored silk, the crown' high and puffed, the front flaring, with a heavy white ruche inside, the trimming of bias bands of peach-col ored plush. Another more civilized-look ing head-gear was of black velvet, the frame perfectly round, having a fall of black lace all about it like a round hat, the crown high, with bias bands of velvet and satin, and two blue feathers at the side. In veritable round hats I was shown one which I was told was a " half gentleinan's hat." What a " half gentleman" !nay be I have no idea; whether it is a person who frequents Fifth avenue on Sunday, and adorns the Bowery the rest of the week, or whether there was in this name a covert satire at the "strong•minded," and; this coiffure was intended especially to be worn by ladies - who aspire to vote, was not explained to me. TIOER LILY. A Novel Aonarlom The Zoological Gardens at Brussels con tain something which is without a parallel in Europe, and might be introduced advan tageously in the Central Park at New York. It is an immense aquarium on a novel prin ciple. In a large artificial cave, which con nine a n umber of winding passages,is adorn ed with stalactites, and is altogether quite as interesting as if it were natural, besides being dryer and more airy—in this quiet and cool retreat are fitted up a number of glass reservoirs, lighted by gas jets above, and supplied with an un usual variety of finny inmates. Standing before one of these reservoirs, the habits and motions of the fish can be observed with perfect ease. The spectator, if at the bottom of a river, could not enjoy bettiir advantages for ichthyological investigation. Pressing his nose against the glass, carp and bass will calmly seem to rub their aides against it. Huge eels will glide sin uously out of rocky nooks and flout it with their tails; a sullen clog-fish, hideous to be hold, will stare at it with stolid indifference; and stupid fish of divers kinds will pause before it in placid imbecility. In other compartments seal and crocodiles disport ; while certain tanks are devoted to those curious creatures of the wave which seem to be half-flower and half-fish,:and which have been burdened by naturalists with most unnatural Latin names. Half a franc is the price of admission to this curious dis play, which Brussels claims as the finest of the kind in existence. At Cherbourg in France, something of the:sort was recently projected, but there a bit of the genuine old ocean was to have been captured and fitted only with those scaly beings which can live in salt water. Here both salt and fresh-water fish abound. Poisoned by Eating Mushrooms. Miss Caroline Herd while stopping re cently at the residence of Mr. John H.

Lioutivtds 1111smanalternerill How Fe!yr:l4=l:At= the 74,as Shameful Neglect of Duly Effect of the Example Set by Grant. Correspondence of the N. Y. Herald. WASHINGTON, Sept. 16, 1871. Not half the facts have yet been given to the public in relation to the Hodge defalca cion. When all is known we shall have a series of striking illustrations of Secretary Boutwell's mismanagement of the Treasury Department. Paymaster Hodge, it must be remembered, is, though a regular army officer and liable 'to court martial trial for any violation of law; also a disbursing offi cer. He is governed in his disbursements mainly by the rules and regulations of the Treasury Department. It is from the Treasury Department that Paymaster Hodge received the Govern ment money, and under the rules, regula tions and form of stating accounts of the Treasury Department that he disbursed it. It was to the Treasury Department that be sent his accounts for examination and set tlement, and, finally, it was by the six years delay of the Treasury Department in taking up accounts for final settlement that he was enabled to operate so long without detection. . Mr. E. B. French, Second Auditor of the Treasury Department, is the accounting °dicer to whom all paymasters' accounts are sent for examination and settlement.— It is the Second Auditor's business to audit all paymasters' accounts. Such disburse ments as be finds have been made accord ing to law be allows, while fraudulent or illegal payments be suspends and charges against the paymaster. Previous to 1861 trio clerical force of the Second Auditor's Office numbered about twenty. During the rebellion it was increased to nearly five hundred, and at the present time nearly three hundred clerks are employed. Con gress has indeed been liberal, but never theless paymasters' accounts lie in the Sec ond Auditor's pigeonholes from three to .five years before being taken up for exam ination and settlement. In fact, the papers lie rotting in the pigeonholes on an average of nearly four years before being touched. How many million dollars of delalcation the examination of these old accounts will disclose, time will only show. Paymas ters know very well that their accounts will not be examined at the Treasury De partment until four or five years after they are rendered. This is the greatest tempta tion to defalcation• Any one dishonestly disposed is certain of three or four years' time to make his defalcation good by spec illation before his accounts are exaamined. If all accounts were examined as soon as rendered, the temptation would be nothing ir*omparison to what it is under the pres, ent.system of procrastination. Paymaster Hodge's defalcation of nearly half a million dollars, though extending through a period of years, was never known at the Treasury Department until he confessed it. His regular account has been settled only up to March 26,1567. His transactions during the last four and a half years yet remain to be examined. He ad mits a defalcation of ~ ' , 1 50,000. How much e sum will be increased by en examina tion of his four and a half years of unex amined and unsettled accounts no one knows. Secretary Boutwell aud his Audi tor of Paymasters' Adcounts aro both cer tainly ignorant, and are both absent from their posts of duty. Some time in the month of March last, in the final settlement of Paymaster Webb's accounts for 1605, the question of the genu ineness of a receipt of August 15, 1805, for $lO,OOO, in favor of Hodge, was raised. Af ter more than rive years delay an investi gation extending through a period of about six months, was had, and it was finally decided to be a forgery, though even now it is not so admitted by Mejor•Hodge's friends. The receipt in question had been on file among Major Houge's other vouch ers in the Second Auditor's office awaiting examination and settlement since 1505. After five years :mil a half delay, during which time the delaulter was plundering the Government, it was finally decided to be a forgery, and the arrest and imprison ment of Hodge amillis confession of a de falcation of $450,000, extending through a period of years, followed as a matter of course. If the Second Auditor of the Treasury Department had taken up these accounts when received at his office live and a ball years ago and hail them settled, the loss in all likelihood would have been but 310,000 or less. As it is, since the defaulter has had so much time to operate, the liovern nient will be lucky if it gets off with the loss of a million dollars. There are over four years of Paymaster Hodge's accounts awaiting settlement, and Secretary Bout well is away electioneering, Assistant Sec retary Richardson is in Europe syndica ting, Treasurer Spinner isstravelling with his retinue, Mr. E. 13. Fren . J . 6, Auditor of Paymasters' Accounts, has been absent frolic his post nearly two months; sic it is impossible to state when ainything will be done. When Secretary Boutwell first assumed control of the 'Treasury Department he knew very well that his Auditor of Pay masters' Accounts was about four years behindhand on that class of work. Some accounts were brought up nearly to date, and some were nearly six years behind. It is sale to say that, taken altogether, the Paymasters' Accounts were, cm an average, four years behindhand. He knew if more help were necessary Congress would fur nish it without a word. He knew that more money could be saved to the Treasury by promptly settling up these old accounts than by a dozen syndications of the public debt. He knew that Mr. French, who had been at the bead of the Second Auditor's office since the commencement of Lincoln's first term, was a good-natured 1 tat of a map, but wholly unfit for the position. He knew that vouchers of payments of hundreds upon hundreds of millions of dollars had been lying in the Treasury Department for years and years without examination. He knew he had the power to have them all settled up to Elate within twelve months' time. But the accounts are nevertheless nearly as far behind now as when Mr. Boutwell entered the office ! • What influences prevented the speedy examination and settlement so imperative ly demanded by the best men and best in terests of our country? Mr. Boutwell's passion, if he has one, is the rapid pay• went of the public debt, at all hazards and at whatever cost. He ought to have madean examination of theseold accounts even If such defalcations should increase the public debt and offset his reductions to a certain ex tent. Did he fear that, the discovery of defal cations In the Treasury accounts would in jure his chances for the Presidency—hence the delay? It Is safe to assume that the parties operating with the half million dollars, procured through poor Hodge's weakness, were anxious to have the delay policy con tinned. If there are any more Wall street operators using Government money ob tained from defaulting paymasters they will certainly be unanimously in favor of Mr. Boutwell's policy. Unless Secretary Boutwell is previously impeached by Congress. or suspended by President Grant, we shall not discover the extent of the existing defalcations before 1575, when the accounts will be reached if the work goes on at the present rate. Sec ond A uditor French is from Maine, and, as a matter of course, is a strong Boutwell [min. We cannot have a new Auditor of Paymasters' Accounts until the President in pursuit of the whites. The latter cap tured seven of the warriors, and turned them over to the Deputy United States Marshal, who took them to Fort Smith for trial for larceny and assault with intent to kill. Et= Item Many Peaches this Year The Wilmington Commercial says: Our peach-crop is all picked and sold. Indeed, most of it is already eaten. The crop has been an immense one, but the quantity shipped by rail has not come up to the expectations formed of it. The fruit • growers, at their meeting in June, estima ted the crop sent by rail at 3,315,000 bask ets. But, on the contrary, it will not be greatly over two and a half millions. The precise quantity, UP to and including, 'Thursday, September 14, was 2,636,673 baskets. The quantity sent by water, however, will be about what we, at a rough guess, estimated it—namely, a million of baskets, so that the whole crop of the Pen insula, this year, is over three and a half millions of baskets, instead of four millions as we had expected. The quantity sent by rail In 1970 was 1.410,079 Baskets, " 1971 is (about) 635,000 " Increase, 1871 1,234,921 " This is a great development, along the railroad regions, in a single year. What amount of money the crop has brought to us, this year, we cannot yet es timate, but the net prices returned to the grower have, probably been between 30 and 40 cents per basket. At 35 cents, the peach crop has brought into the Peninsula, this year, over $1,235,000, and counting all con sumption at home, by the canners, etc., a fair statement would doubtless be very nearly a million and a half of dollars.
