,by the apparent rottenness of .the
administration of " honest" Abraham Lin
coln, 'compelled even Republican Senators
and Represent yes, to ; ,demand an exam
ination into the conductof the o ffi cers
and: agents of the . general govern ment.
The examination wok place. ,llt, began in
the. ; Navy Navy Department; the exist
ence of the grossest corruption was estab
lished,; and though, for obvious reasons,
the guilty have escaped just punishment,
the measure has not been wholly unpro
ductive of good. It has at least proved the
worthlessness, of rulers, who, assuming
the lofty title of preservers and reformers
of their country, have added to her mie.
pries. and increased her burdens, and
while trampling, on her liberties have dis
sipated her resources for the benefit of
the avaricious and greedy of mankind.
The report of Senatnr , Rale,• dissented
from by Mr. Doolittle, but concurred in
by. Senator Buckalew, presents the con
tractrmaieing business in a rather singular
light. It shows bow the bureau favor;
ices have obtained their enormous profits
by collusion and fraud. It proves that
into combinations were entered and Be
are:. information given in order to cheat
the government. It shows that the price
of one and the.same article varied accord
iug to the locality, and thattbe profit was
enormous,. ranging in tr.any instances
from one. hundred and .6fty to over one
thousand per cent, above the fair market
value, and profit. It shown how the same
merchant obtained at one and the same
time contracts for fornishing certain arti
cleft, to. the Navy 2 Yards at:Kittery, New
York,charlestown,and Philadelphia t and
hpiv_he could and did mare:tete malte"a
good thing of it," It shows , that after
bids had been offered,, and subsequent to
their acceptance, the figures therein, by
erasures and alterations, were made to
represent a value of several times the
original amount—that, for instance, one
bid originally 0146,725 40, was increased
to $22, 585 ( 40-T—and that, the clerks
of the Department • certified, aye,
even swore before the committee to the
honesty of such nefarious transactions. It
shows, in short, that, to use the words of
the report, in the matter of contracts,
the.government was grossly defrauded,
and these frauda could not have been tier
petratecl without aid from those in the
employment in the bureaus:" The com
mittee state that, these remarks apply to
the bureau of steam engineering, the bu
reau, of construction; 4te., and the bureau
of yards and .decks.., •..
Such is a very, imperfect and hasty sum
mary' of the infamies of the Navy Depart.
meat. Some details of these, from the
report, will be given in future articles.—
The administration which, for so long a
time, overlooked, or connived at such
things, . must be indeed,,depraved. But
for, the action of the, committee these
frauds would have continued unchecked
—perhaps, th e y; are repeated even now.
Justice to the country demands that they
be exposed, and 'we shall endeavor to
make known to the people the conduct of
their unworthy rulers. We trust that a
severe retribution is in store for the men
woo .have thus squandered the nation's
treasure in the hotir of its sot est neecl.—

triumph. Thefirst effort must be to a
rouse the people; to bring whatever ef
fort is made upon, a plain level with -the
masses, and thtis ensure their full, earnest
and dearly.co-pperation.
This 'mut lA debamplishid by precinct
and township clubs.— Such oilanizatious
can brink' Within their operation all the
Democrats- in each locality, and in this
manner make them efficient. The fre
quent meeting of these clubs, extending,
as their action would, over but a' small
amOiint, of territory, would . Make the Dem
ocrats familiar with each 'other, cement
them together as a band of brothers, and
infuse fresh life and activity into all move
ments of 'a' party 'character. More than
thii, in such' a club each member could
make a careful canvass of the oppOsitlon
in his neighborhood, note the numbers;
mirk the surroundings of each persons,
and thus be 'prepared on election day to
prevent fraud and 'insure a fair expression
of opinion at the ballot-box. If the work
be thus divided and sub-divided,' but a
small portion will fall tp the lot-ofbncb;
and hence it can be Welt llime, and all the
ground covered.
As this matter is important to the suc
cess of the Democratic ticket at the com
ing election; we urge - npon the Democra
cy to organize clubs in each precinct at
once. There is no time to be lost. Each
moment is precious. The period for ac
tion has armed. Our candidates are in
the field, and if Success is to crown our
efforts, it must be at the price of orriti
ized and well-directed labor. The contest
will be fiercely fought by the abolitionist..
They Kill not let go the sword and purse;
power, patronage and shoddy contracts
at the mere bidding of tbe'Deniocracy.—
The contest'of 1863 should be remember
ed by the Democracy when they spepu
late upon the coming election. But im
portant changes are taking place in every
precinct, and an over-the Commonwealth
—and it is to take advantage' of this
change in public opinion that local organ
ization should be attended to. If a man
is willing to acknowledge his errors, to
confess that he has been wrong, in the
past, in almost all cases he will at With
the party that opens the path by which
relief may come. This road is through
the success of the Democratic party, and
it must be pointed out, and voters be
urged to travel that Way, by the united
action of all friends or the country' 'the
Constitution, and the laws. At all events,
the Democracy should attend to this mat
ter of precinct and township or.ganiza
tion at once, and the most glorious re
sults will flow from labor thus directed.
Reader I Do not wait wait for some
body else to begin this_ good work in
your neighborhood. Begin yourself! Be
gin to-day'! '

RE* Scoundrelijo.:,
Surgeon Genera; - Hammond has been
'tried by court, _marttalt-and- T found guilty
of ,sislc . .eA ihdfAccand - sontep Ind " to be
disraissedThim-the.service." It 'seems It
from the veryday *of - hiaappoiutment he
wae...a,partner with several other "loyal."
Republicatie.inewindlingthe Government.
He parehased-darnaged medicines at akor
bitant prices, With the understanding that .
he and his
,partnm in crime were to share
the profite,-_which.they did. The_ blanket.
he purchased were ..unfit•for use,snd the
'medicines - be „adtniplste t ed- to,, sick and,
wounded Soldiers, were utterly worth
btit yet.' ho htid the :oOvernment
charged enormously fdr articles he
ordered. The amount of his defiliaition
amotints,to - Oilliiiiii. let - this is;ttot- the
worst feature of his conduct. Thowittiida
of soldlers have died because '64 au net
receive - good medicines and .good
eta. And for these devilish crimes ho is
"dismissed the service"—that is all.
It will be remembered that at the titan
Hammond was appointed to the high'ithd
very responsible,position ofSnr geon Gen
eral, we expressed our af.tetlishmitt:r.,
We know him.' He is a young man, and'
never had reputation of a great phy:
sioian or surgeon. His appointment Wag
an outrage, and it was his politics and not
his professional character thatgave him
the position. Certain prominentT,epubli.
cans of this State—Curtin, Cameron and
others—backed 'him up, and he 'was ap.
pointed over old and experienced and
honest surgeons. Oh, bow plain it is that
the Itepublican s are " the soldiers friendsP
If they can make money by killing our
wounded and•bteeding - soldiers, of donne
they will do it, but at the time they kite
the soldier very: 'lunch. .Heavens, what
heartless villians and liars some men are.—
Carlisle Volunteer. ,
Men who will not pledge themselves to
vote for Mr.. Lincoln "need not apply to this
Administration fOr - work, however we'l
they may have served their country.
Here is a case in point, which we find in
the New Yoik Herald of a-few days
since:
"I am an honorably discharged soldier
of tbe Third 'United States Artillery, my
discharge dated . July 2, 1884. Yesterday
Morning I applied at the Navy Yard for
and nresentedmy discharge,
expecting that the proof of honorable ser
vice might secure , work there. I was ask
ed if I was a supporter of the present Ad
ministration, and t replied that I was.
wab 00 'asked - if I would vote for Mr.
Lincoln, to which I returned an emphatic
negative; `whereupon I was -told to go
about mybusiness, that I would not get no
work there.
I deem further comment unnesaary, but
through the Herald beg to lay the matter
before the country. '
MICHAEL MALLON.
Referring to the important success of
Gen. Sherman at Atlanta, which has fully
- vindicated the good opinion which Geo.
McClellan expressed of Gen. Sherman,
when, being called to the chief command
of our armies, the former endeavored,Sho'
in vain, to secure the services ofGenerul
Sherman as his chief of staff, the New
York World remarks :
" It is pitiful to think how the splendid
achievements of this gallant soldier, and
of Grant, and of all their comrades in arms,
will be cheated of their proper fruit. Our
victories do not bring in the golden day
of peace ; for sn administration hot&
power at Washington whose purpose is
to prolohg the war till a disurtioirpeace
is inevitable—an administration which
made no use of Farragnt's victories on
the Mississippi, except to organize cotton
stealing expeditions up its various tribu
taries, or of Grant's conquest of Vicks
burg, except to gut the southwest by
Treasury* permits in the lipnds of Repub
lican thueveti.• Were MOClellan in power,
the victories of oar armies would be-used
to:restore peace and establish the Union.
By Mr. Lincolo they will only be used to
make peace impossible."
-We world like to' know the exact
amount of money Gen. Butler 'deriveil
from taxing negro harlots at Norfolk,Va.,
sines his ascension to the tbrone'of that
district. :We would :also like to know
how much money was paid bribe car•
tainstalties, who transported.the immense
iutintities of bacon, sugar and coffee, out
side the lines'at the same point, ,whiti
eventually reaehed the Confederate army.
