A Sing Sing convict, named Canter, wbo has been
employed in the clerk's office, has recently been placed i n
solitary confinement for fraudulently discharging pri-
soners for pecuniary considerations long before their tine.
One prisoner, named Miller, was reported for discharge by
Canter, and had had on his citizen's clothes when it was
discovered that he still had nine months to serve. It might
be well for some of the prison officials to have control of
the important matter of discharging prisoners, and not
leave it to one of the convicts, as seems to have been done.
The Philadelphia Public Ledger tells the following
good story : —The rumour that Gen. Granville M. Dodge,
of low's, will succeed to the War Department, recalls the
fact that after the close of the war General Dodge was in
command of a post in Louisiana. One day the Adjutant-
General received an official communication from him,
stating that he had been offered $50,000 to wink at certain
cotton speculations, and refused it. The bid had been
increased to $lOO,OOO, and then to twice that amount.
The General said he had refused all the offers, but the
last sum was " very near his price," and he wished to be
relieved before a, louder call on his probity was made.
His request was granted.
