[Curremendenee of the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin.]
WASHINGTON, August 7,1868.—1 n my last,
made a comparison between the case of the
resignation of Gen. Steadman, Collector of In
ternal Revenue at Now Orleans, and that of Com
missioner 'Rollins. The cases are not precisely
similar, as the records show. Steadman tendered
his resignation early this spring, to takeeffect on
the 15th of Aprll. The President sent to the
Senate the name of John Hancock,
of. Philadelphia, ex-Collector of the
_Fourth. Pennsylvania District, for Steadman's
position, but he was rejected by the Senate. In
order to defeat the Senate, and put his friend in
the place the President ordered Hancock to take
charge of the office, and be has hold it ever Since,
as a deputy. Secretary McCulloch, it seems, ad
dressed Steadman to the effect that his resigna
tion would be accepted on the 15th of April, or
"as eoon thereafter as his successor should be
inalified," or confirmed by the Senate. No name
was sent in after Hancock was rejected; so the
place has been kept open for Steadman,who goes
to Now Orleans and takes charge of the office!
In this way the President keeps in office a man
without the approval of the Senate. This matter
will be overhauled when Congress meets again.
THE REVENUE STAMPS FOR TODACCO.
It is estimated that one hundred and fifty mil
nobs of the small stamps required for tobacco
packages will be needed. The stamps for dis
tillers will be printed at the Treasury Depart
ment, in Clark's bureau, but the tobacco stamps
will be giver( out by contract, and it is to be
hoped your Philadelphia engravers will be on
band as bidders.
THE COAL CONTRACT
The contract for 10,000 tons of coal, to be de
livered at the Philadelphia Navy Yard, men
tioned in my last, was awarded to S. P. Brown
&Son, of Washington, at $0 as per ton, and the
conditions are the - full ton of 2,240 pounds the
Yard.
Thisto be weighed and inspected at the
This is rather a low rate, but could not some
Philadelphia firm have bid as low ? The coal
can be brought from the mines on canal boats
on the Schuylkill canal, which can be towed
around the mouth of the Schuylkill to the Navy
Yard, and delivered there, which saves handling
and loss. Hence the low price.
ILLNESS OF COMAIISMONER SARGENT

but one of the most faithful and efficient officers
under the Government.
It 113 understood Secretary McCulloch will take
no action upon Supervisors of Revenue; nomi
nated by_Comtaissioner Rollin!, until the
_ques
tion of Rollins's status is decided. If a Democrat
dent, it is li:ely all of Rollins's nominations will
be thrown overboard, and others substituted.
'WHAT A DEIMOCRATP: POSTMASTER TIIINES OF
MEM
The followirig endorsement on a circular of the
Lincoln Monument, sent to Postmasters by per
mission of Postmaster-General Randall, was re
ceived a few days since by General F. E. Spinner,
Treasurer of the Association, from a Postmaster
in New York State, in General Van Wyck's Dis
trict. The Postmaster is evidently a strong
friend of Seymour and Blair, and his effusion
shows that his early education was somewhat
neglected. I give it verbatim:
"Lincoln Monument Co,—we are not of the
stamp (in charge of the Post Office here now)
that you thought we was when you sent this doc
ument—it is not in radical hands and dont sup
port a man that was compelled to do so and so by
the pressure brought to bear upon him—talk
about him being the savior of his country—non
sence through his means the Diggers is to day
better than a white man and the country plunged
into disgrace and a debt which centuries will pass
before it will be paid—we dou't want nay such
papers here as this is a sample—and what moioy
we have to subscribe will go for men of honor to
fill the Presidents chair and hurl the radical party
frOrn plundering , the country of its money and
taxing people and extorting monies from them
to put in radical devils pockets—
"a common grave is good enough for such a
man as he was—you thought him as God Al
mighty—he was'ut any better than a pauper
along the streets—
"We dont support men here that tries to plunge
the country into destruction & civil war—but
support men who nextfilll will send your party
to thed—l—and hurl the cussed party from pow
er—you talk about him being a martyr—we cant
see it—who ever heard tell of a man going to
Heaven out of a thodatra Lincoln & whiskey
Grant was the means of filling up so many grave
yards with precious human lives—
" Jeff Davis is got more honor than Lincoln ever
had & has more friends to day than he will over
have—
"we dont want any more of your papers of this
kind ever. y or its—"

franked by the Postmaster . ending it.

Ijl . te Shooting ott ate Burglar—Coro
ner's Inquest.
This morning Coroner Daniels held an inquest
on the body of Win. Sweeny, who was shot yes_
terday morning while attempting to break into
the house of Christopher Dillon. at Twenty
fourth and Kent Streets The office was crowded
with spectators, and there was great anxiety to
see the bay who had thus rid the co unity of
a dangerous character.
Several witnesses were examin . T testi-
MOM' corroborated the statement of the affair
which was published in the BULLETIN of yester
day. No new facts were elicited.
The evidence of Dr. E. B. Shapleigh, whp made
the peat itivrtettt examination, showed that several
slugs had entered the body of Saoeny, and that
dbath must, have been almost Instantaneous.
The jury, after a very brief deliberation, agreed
upon the following verdict
"That the said William Sweeny came to his
death from a gunshot wound inflicted by Tho
mas Dillon, on the morning of August 7, Ise's,
between 12 and 1 o'clock.
"That the said Sweetly, at the time of the in
diction of said wound, was engaged, in company
with John McGee and Frank Johnson. iu at
tempting to commit a burglary by breaking into
the dwelling-house of Christopher Dillon, the
father of the said Thomas Dillon, and that the
said shooting was done in order to prevent the
perpetration of a burglary."
After the verdict had been announced Dillon
was discharged from custody by order of the
Coroner, and as he left the office, he was con
gratulated upon his release, and applauded for
the good act in' so summarily disposing of a
burglar.
McGee and Johnson, the companions of Swee
ny. had a hearing before Ald. Beitler yesterday
afternoon, upon the charge of having robbed the
store of Mrs. Eliza Halt, at Twenty-fourth and
Spruce streets. Mrs. Bolt identified several ar
ticles which had been found on the persons of

Russia—Flogging and Legal Science.
It seems that the popular notion that corporal
punishment does not exist in Russia is incorrect.
Fla Moscow Goi.ette tells us in a recent number
that an old man of sixty, named Szumin, belong
ing to the sect of "old believers," has just been
sentenced to receive fifty lashes for havine , es
caped from Siberia. He had been condemned to
hard labor in the mines some years ago, because
lie had destroyed, in a fit of fanaticism, some
prayer-books in a Russian church, and, having
made his escape. he was seized at Vladimir on
the way to his home. On being examined by a
physician, the latter declared that Szumin's are
and weak health would make it exceedingly dan
gerous to inflict the punishment of the lash; but
the local tribunal nevertheless delivered the sen
tence above described, and when the unfortunate
man appealed to the higher court at Moscow the
sentence was confirmed. The Moscow Ga7ette,
in relating the above facts,explains that although
corporal punishment has been abolished by law
the sentence in the present case was perfectly
correct, as Sznmin, being a convict, "has lost all
civil and political rights."
Mr. Winans,the contractor of the St.Potorsburg
and Moscow Railway, is doing some service to
legal science. For his own purposes, it seems, he
has had the whole "Corpus Juris" of Russia (the
"Swod Sakonow") translated into English. No
than thirty-eight men have been busy at it In
his office for more than a month for about seven
teen hours a day. The Moslova learns that this
translation is about to tie printed in London.
Air. Winans is not moved by an enthusiasm for
Russian legislation, but rather by the desire of
being able fully to back his claims for damages
in case the Russian government should, as he
wars, break their contract with him and hand
the railway over to the Grand SocW.tiS.

This Company, National in its character,offers,
by reason of its Large Capital, Low Rates of Pre
mium and New Tables, the most desirable means
of insuring life yet presented to the public.
The rates of premium, being largely reduced,
are made as favorable to the Insurers as those of
the best Mutual Companies, and avoid all the
complicati ms and uncertainties of Notes, Divi
dends an the misunderstandings which the latter
are apt t cause the Policy-Holder.
Several now and attractive tables are now pre
sented, which need only to be understood to
prove acceptable to the public, sueh as the IN
COME-PRODUCING POLICY and RETURN
PREMIUM POLICY. In the former, the policy
holder not only secures a life insurance, payable
at death, but will receive, if living, after a period
of a few years, an annual income equal to ten per
rent. (10 per cent.) of the par of his policy. In the
latter, the Company agrees to return to the as
sured the total amount of money he has paid in, in
addition to the amount of his policy.
The attention of persons contemplating insur
ing their lives or increasing the amount of insur
ance they already have,is called to the special ad
vantages offered by the National Life Insurance
Company.
Circulars, pamphlets and full particulars given
on application to the Branch Office of the Com
pany in this city, or to its General Agents.
