GODDARD Bailey the defautng clerk, was special

not to the Government after the 4th OF March.
His style of living Of late has excited notice as extra

The sudden recall of Thompson from hls mission OF
secession by the misconduct of his clerk IL severe blow
to the ardor Of the disunionss. He 6nds he cannot
