WARRINGTON CITY. Tuesday, Msy a. 1888
There are full ten thousand persons found 10 be legally
entitled 10 extra Naval pay under Dr. OWNS law, OF
which have had occasion TO write yOu repeatedly Of late
The frauds are perpetrated by forging
nev and other papers in the Of of them who
are dead and Of others who prove to have been sent
from the country in the Naval service OF the Government
at the period the papers puort TO have been executed
by them in the United States Quite half the money 50
lar psd under the law has gone into the pockets OF spec
uaors who get from ignorant andcareess sailors powers
ofattorney with authority TO receive the money, and
private contract making it their own after being SO re-
ceyed. Al these facts having been duly ascertained
here II is not wonderful that the officers of the Govern
ment are becoming most stringent with reference to
payments 10 be made under this law particularly Were
they 70 90 otherwise under the circumstances they would
be grossly unaithful to their trusts.
All that you see in the newspapers relative to
probable uuion between the Southern Unon.psrty
Democrats aud your SlverGrey Wings, is SO much
Cannon. The ofice-seekers among the former are
terribly disappointed on account of their failure
to get what they deem to be their portion OF the sp0s
Yet upOn every question of principle upon which they
have protested 10 stand there be question relative
to the determination Of the administration 10 stand with
them Every succeeding day will make this fact more
clear deseron of the administration by them there
fore, will be palpaby brought about by disappOnt
ment relative to punder, that their office seekers will
carry off no rank and file. The Wings OF the Southern
Union party will many of them coalesce with the Silver
Crews ond doubt though Toombs and Stephens Of
Gcoreia GO large portion Of them will 60 also TOombs
snd Stephens known TO avedecared thelrdeermua
cn 10 sustain the Pierce administration Indeed the dis
satisfaction so far expressed in the South is not among
the Southern Union party Wings they really expect
cd nothing in the way Of Office; though their former
afnities viii induce large numbers of them to reunte
With the Silver GTeys whenever the latter are entirely
seperaed from the wings OF the Northern Wing party
with which you are identified
have every reason to believe that the present adj
administration are eager for opportunity to commence
few prosecutions under the penal clause OF the Sub
Treasury aw which, so far, has not been brought fully
into play in single as, strange as the assertion
nav appear during the time Of Mr. imore there were
about thirty opportunities TO have done that But Mr
F. ard those around him had great horror of tho
Sub Treasury system in all its parts, as that they were
not overanxous to demonstrate the practical effect of
the cause in que stion The President at the present
time taking precisely contrary views OF the system Is
disposed 10 have the rep with which he carries t OUT
one of the marked features of difference between his
administration and Fs BY the by, while his subordi-
mates are saving at the ple, there is rmor prevailing
that the money is running out at the Mexican Boundary
Survey bung hole 1t is said that Gen. Campbell the
new Commissioner before leaving here, drew out OF the
Treasury every dollar Of the sum appropriated at the
last session for the continuance OF the suUeyssome
$4,000 have not yet been able to ascertain whether
tlir rumor is correct-and if so, how he came to do
things thus, by wholesale
Mr Dillayc of Syracuse, N Y, who has been dancing
ATTENDANCE here ever since the inauguration expecting
CLerpfslip in return for the Papers for the People
which sprang from his brain during the last canvass
bears his disappointment with great iortltude and resig
nation. TLose Papers for the People were never
calculated to set the North River on Ire-ndeed they
hardly earned a Charge ship for Mr.. Dnlaye
The foreign appointments take well here with the
ocesetkers stu nge as il may SEEM as with the rest
of the Democrats in Washington Thus, every dissp-
pointed aspirant seems inclined to pronounce all the
appointments made On this slate good, except that
made to the position for which he was himself an app
can't or the appointment to some other place which,
being made, ruled his own out OF the question sam
Medarys seems to give most dissatisfaction Yet Is
coed one. Though Sam was not the man for Cabinet
mission he is precisely the gentleman Tor "dcAerng
with any one | care not how shrewd Without educa-
ton he possesses experience, patience Judgment and
much intellectual acuteness-qualitles, all OF which go
to make up the successful dplomatist lie Is therefore
fully competent to do the thinking OF the Office 30,
with ngust and grammarian for Secretary-eyen

south Of the South Pass in order TO ascertain whether
the mountains in that quarter present any other prac

circumstances occurring on his way may designate as
likely 10 prove useful WEsrNSIsrER.
