Our pub lic servants tfere less suspected, and a leu number were filty, when the sal aries were smaller than now. It is living beyond income that Las been with most defaulters tb6 first step, and we say in ail earnestness that in every case living beyond income was needless and criminal. The great body of the people are in no mood to be trifled with by puerile pleas about social position and beautiful eitravigat.ee. That kind of life is essentially vulgar because it lacks the highest cul'ure, which is self control and sel.'-denial. Methodist. The Democratic Greenback Party of New York.

Mr. Clymer will doubtless discover, ere be is much older, that notoriety is not fame, by any meaus. Itarrhbur Telegraph Gen. Belknap's Political Career. Firtl a Democrat, then an Independent, But A'ever a Republican. From the Keokuk (Iowa) Gate City A little over twenty years ago W. V. Belknap came to Keokuk as a young attorney. He was a Democrat in poli tics. He became somewhat active as a local politician, and in 1858 was elected by the Democracy to tbe Lower House of the State Legislature. When the war broke out Mr. Belknap went in with the local company to which be be- - 1-jnged, and came back at tbe end of tbe war a major-general and with a record as a soldier booorable to himself, the State, and the country. He bad scarce ly determined what to do as to bis business future when Andrew Johnson began bis raid upon Republicans, and Dr. J. C. Walker, Revenue Collector for this district, was to go out by de capitation. At tbe -.nstance of both - Democratic and Republican friends General Belknap, who was a War Dem ocrat acd then an Independent, politi cally dividing bis vote between both parties, applied for tue placo, aod got it. Tbe ageocies that compassed this result were both Republican and Democratic. WUeo Mr. McCrary succeeded to Con gress, General Belknap, as an Jodc peodeot, was re appointed by President Grant, aod this appointment was gen erally satisfactorily to all parties. Geueral Belknap was suddenly, to tbe surprise of himself and everybody else, mide Secretary of War. The choice was made by tbe President from the staudpoiot of tbat peculiar policy ' which bas eootrollcd bim in many of bis appointments. Had be asked any part of Iowa lUptb k.an or Iowa Deui- ncrats who be should eboose as a Re publican Cabinet Minister from Iowa bone el ei'ber party would bave thought of 3ufgetiB General Belknap. " No nolitical aueations were asked or an- r wered as tbe eoodition of his going into tbd Cabinet. ' Evans steps down aod out as post - trader at Fort Sill. Letter from an Old Jacisonlan Dcatocrai of Green na4 TuWnUdw. Nts.8 Siten Star TAfttH, "I March 11, 187B. J -. My Deaf Mr. Editor There were not many young fellows at tbe Stars to ntght, fur yon must know that down here, as elsewhere in the Christian world, tbe courting is done on Saturday sight. But, I tell you, if tl.e youi.g fellows were away, tbe old fellows made it np. Tbey seemed kren on tbe talk about a Bian and a woman." A talk on the subject of a"itan and a woman is always an interesting subject at tbe Stars, and on this evening it was op to fever pitch, on account of the fuss that Bilknap and bis wife kicked up at Washington, and the way tbey went for the woman, nearly made my hair stand. You see the Speaks are lik old Andy Jackson ; tbey have a warm sido for tbe woman always. ' Yon know bow Old Hickory took down bis pistol (and he was a good shot with that weapon,) and was leaving tbe bouse to shoot some fellow who said Mrs. Jackson smoked a corn-cob pipe, when "he stopped him at tbe door and said be shouldn't mind it, that she didn't, tat it was Final) talk. He listened, of course, and did not shoot the fellow Old Hickory was always on the side of the women when they were right. He must bare come from a KuigMly race of nu n, for bis beari ig to tbe woman who could claim his attention was the bout age of a princely politeness without a shade of weakuess or todyism in it. Andy Jackson never blew foul breath cn a woman; be wasn't eternally gram bling about Eve's fall. He always con tended that at least half of that load should be put on Adam's shoulders, for if Adam hadn't eaten, most likely Eve would have been put away and then be would have got auotber Eve, or some other woman, sod the garden would yet be in existence, and we would all be bappy. Andy always said tbe wo man couldn't alone make trouble; it must be a "man and a woman," and be never was so conceited as to declare himself eialted so highly as to be out of tbe retdi of temptation, though, to his credit be it said that during all bis long public career be ever remained faithful, slcady as tbe needle to tbe pole, to Mrs. Jackson. Old Hickory was partieabrly severe on men who pro- fessed to be stotie blind to tbe graces' of womankind, and always held h tii.se If in distrust on tbe question of a " man and a woman," for bo bad read of so many illustrious men who fell under tbe charms of womankind, or rather be cause parlies wilb Werner, in c.iuducl tbat was of a questionable kind. ' He never forect David aod Uriah's wife, n(j ,uere Julius Cspsar, who ooce was so exalied that he expressed the seotetice tbat is so common now, that "Coesar's wife must not only be vir tuous but Caeara wife must be above upieio ;" and not log after aeoam the party to ooe of tbe most famous uin and a woman iorigues" iu the history of the world. Old Hickory always prayed for power to withstand j temptation, or keep from tempting biin- j self. He always did hold that iu ninety-nine cases in a hundred the man is the temptei, and not tbe woman. He said tbat if the Devil has sex be is a man, and consequently iuitead of tbe race falling through a woman ii fci! tbr ugh a ir.an. How 1 wish Old Hick ory could now come to life aud step in and help stop tbe outrageous srguments that are daily circulated agaiot the women for their intiigues and extrava gance. He would fiud tbe Speaks with him, as they couldn't be fouud on the other side without outraging their pedi gree, for in the lists of the tourna ments of the Old World of ceoturies sgo, their lances were poised for de feoceless womeo. Old Hickory knew that it was the virtue of Lucretia tbat expelled the Tarquins sod made Home a Republic. He never forgot that the virtue of Esther, through Abanierus, her husbaod, King of the Medts and aod Persians, saved ber people from the slaughter of tbe sword ; aod be could never get done telling of tbe good tbat bas come through woman to man at Bethlehem, ou the night when voices in the sky proclaimed " Peace on earth and good will to men." He al ways closed, io discussing the subject of a "man aod a woman," by saying tbat bis mother was a woman," and tbat when be condemned wnmaokiod be condemned bis mother. Andy was too high strung for that. He was right when be set it down for a fact tbat tbe men are to blame for tbe shortcomings of tbe women io most cases. 1 know if Oid Hickory eould step about Wash ington in tbe flesh oow, bow be would give it to Belknap, first for staling from tbe Government, and then for b'.amiDC it on bis wife. W benever a fellow goes into tbe business tbat Belk cap was io, and then when be is caught, which any man who does so will sooner or later be, and sets up a cry over it and blames it on bis wife, be may be aet down as one of tbe most contempt! ble snesks that can be scsred up. Old Hickory scorned all such people. Such a bowl as is now going up against tbe womeo for extravigaoca. Tbe fellows sre fools for so bowling, aod haven't brains enough to reason tbat tbe men are the cause of the extravagance. They haven't wit eoough to see tbat if tbe men didn't like it the women wouldn't indulge ia it. Tbey haven't brains enough to see tbat the womeo I dress and are ray to please the men j Tbe BeiknapItes wbo are ging lt t0 the womeo now haveo't wit enoogb to know tbat Mrs. Belknap made ber show to please ber husband. He set up the i standard of show as a Cabioet officer, and be was capable of filling it as be wanted it. ( What senseless fI!"w he was to raise It to such a pitetf f hit bit tocome eooldo't stand it. Ha stole to keep it Op, got bis wife to help .him, and theo blames it on tier. 'Old Andy would ssy be is meaner than ''dog pie. Belkncp is one of a' class that will live beyond bis means, and his life at Wash ington proves bow much be will lake from other people when be can get it. He is on of a clan of -dumb met) who believe tbat to be in office means' that! a man most make" a -gieafsbow." Did Hickory didn't believe that. ' Belknap believed that he must live like the no- blenieo of tbe governments of the Old World. It would be all right for j.im' to live that way on bis own money, but be believed that be must live that way to be something in this Goveruuie'uf, He was too dumb to understand tbtn this Government is oot'built on the same kind of a foundation- as those ia tbe OU World. Unwanted to be an aristocralie and didu'tknow bow. Ar istocracy in Europe is blood, not show Belknap didn't, know what the sob stance is, and went after the shadow, an got it to a certainty, and demon strated hi own mean blood. ( cold any business be more shoddy ,o; more mean blooded than to extort, steal, from the wages ( of soldiers who are service the country at eleven and six teen dollars per inoorhi ' Blooded peo ple don't act in tbat way. The pure aristocrats ate always the same; pov erty does" not erusb or make them mean ; fortune does not affect them. They are men and women regardless of the eliange of life, aud tbey endure for centuries.. Just who Old Hickory was, is not certainly settled, but I'll bet high on it that be bad a touch of some pure aristocratic blood. Tbere was nothing shoddy about him, and be could no more bave acted like Belknap than Belknap eould act like Jackson. When the Belknap disgrace came in L to the Stars, or rather whet tbe news of the work of the sboddyite Belknap reached tbe Stars, there was some loud smiling done, on the part of my old friends wbo have departed from the Jaeksonian. faith, but as the truth, grain by grain, came in, their smiling grew les loud until it died out and was nothing but a shape on their faces, and now it has even lost shape, and their faces are as sober aud puckereJ at if their diet consisted of nnfrosted per siiumous. , Tbey thought it was your party that was do:og these thiog, when the fact is, tbe meo wbo are engaged in tbe dirty work are nearly all Demo crats, fellows that wanted to shout for AnJy Jackson. Even the women that tbv blamed, are Demncratio would!. ! K.IV... S. n--.nM.at Marah is i - a Democrat, and the woiuen they are try iog to nuke shoulder tbe blame oo ao eoont of extravagance, are Kentncky women aod Democrats, aod the- inti mate friends of tbe Vlackburos, wbo went to Caoada during tbe rebellion, aod hired meo to burn Northern property, threw railroad trams off the tf ask that contained Northern soldiers, an! seat goods iuto the Northern States that bad small pox matter in tbeui. Ibey eveo went so far as to seod Old Abe Liootio a dozen of fioe shirts as a present that were foil of small-pox matter. The Blackborns were never punished for their crimes, aod there ia ooe of tbetu io Congress now. The fale Jacksooians io Congress were in fur a cerlaiD amount ol exposure oo the Belknap question. They wanted eoough to bave it said tbat a member of tbe Graut Cabinet ir or was con cerned io it. They thought voar fel lows would excuse whoever might be conuected with tbe Administration, in tbo stealings ; but when your party rose up as ooe man, tbey got scared, for most of the people io it are of their party. 1 bey said, this will oever do ; iostead cf hurting the Republicans it will kill us for a dozen years more, for ibe meu on whom corruption is being proved are Democrats, aud Lave always been Democrats." It is a well known fact tbat Graut has put many of bis old party friends in office. ' It was a stunning blow to our fellows wben they found out tbat ( lymer dis charged Marsh, the only witness so far that testified to the guilt of Belknap, aud the community at large saw what miserable tricksters be and bis com mittee is ; they see through it all. You know articles of impeachment bad been started agaiost Belkoap. The wbolo ease hong on what Marsh bad sworn to. Ciymer left bim go, aod the result is tbat the impeaebmeot itself, tbat Cly mer also atarted, or at least ho offered tbe resolution of impeachment in Con gress, could not be carried on. Tbey try to deny tbat Clymer left bim go ; they say tbat he couldn't bold bim. Tben why did Clymer start tbe im- peachmeut if be knew be eould get nothing to carry it through on ? 11 knew tbat Marsh was bis foundation. and without him tbe impeachment could not go on. by would he start the impeachment when he knew he couldn't bold bis foundation f Marsh getting away has stopped the whole proceed ings, unless they can get new witnesses lt was one Democratic sinner leaving another Democratic sinner out. They say it didn't stop impeachment, but tl e fact is tbe next day after Marsh's ruo away, a man named Kuott, another Democratio Congressman, moved by resolotioo that the "resolution instruct ing tbe Committee on the Judiciary to prepare articles of impeaebmeot agaiost Belknap, be re-committed to said com mittee." It was a withdrawal of the whole proceedings, and tbere will be nothing more done with H unless jon fellows drie them t" the wnrk, which I guess you are all wcrking bird to do. - YVben they commenced to uncover they found uiftety-uiuo Democrats to every one Republican, and they shot the lid down quick to keep the public fioiu seeing the Democrats people in it, and now they want to get Cljmer out of. the responsibility of letting Marsh go. j Tbe fxct is, Cljnier U io a tight place, and what will help him out i not known , I eucs lie bad tetter j be iTrvestigakd.1 If you fellows don't jmveal?gte flie thing 1tGT never be I investigated for Clyuier and Company j have started on tbe way to smother tbe thole thing.. You must not forget that Grant, too,' Is a t Democrat.. I can never forget how your party -passed all t great and good men who have never been tainted by the stench of eorrsjp tion and given tbe bnoore of the coun try o new coiiers because tbey helped to crush out a war against labor. You have honored them above their, merit, aud tley iw many instances dishonored their' iriends.'' dishonored themselves, and dishonored the country. Andy Johnson turned on you tbe first chance, and this man Belknap and bis crop of werds is one of Andy Johnson's tares gone to seed, aod so-' if you look over the whole field you will find that to a majority ot cases it is tba result of your misplaced confidence. You must un load. That is what Old Hickory would tell jou if be weie living, and take on a different kind of stock. You bave it. if ou will only use it. I am not certain that I can wait till after the Fair to write you again. So good nig lit, and don't get tbe night mare, with Grant, Belknap, Kuott, Clymer, the ll.aek burns and the women sitting on y ou.
