The twenty days allowed the traitors in
the Presidents proclamation, to lay down
their arms and return to their allegiance,
have now expired, and we may confident
II look for offensive operations against the
rebels, On scale that will make success
full resistance impossible. The days Of
grace hive been long and weary, and we
are glad to announce their expiration -
Now let the blows fall thick and fast The
people demand the instant employment Of
all the immense resources which they are
willing to lavish upon this struggle for the
preservation oftheir liberties, and they will
not be content if their demand is not made
the rule of the Administration. Let the
columns be pushed forward The country
wants to hear the roar Of artillery!

-uaT MXH HAS DONE.

n, Samuel Colt is making some retri-
bution for the assistance he has given the
kes,ela During the past winter and spring
he has manufactured and sold tens Oh
sasasanas Of patent firearms to the seces-
sionistA The best arTs they possess ne
has furnished. He continued shipping
xiihes and revolvers to them until afteF tbs
secession Of Virginia and the Proclamation
THE President; and only ceased when q
Vigilance Committee warned him to stop.
The public feeling against him became SO
hot, that he was obliged to take the back
track He notified his agents that he
would make arms for the Union men, at
fill price. He had supplied the insurgents
Mt discount. This concession to the 10y
d sentiment Of the country was not satis-
fastoFy, and a CT ax9se, calling on the
Gpyernmeut to .take possession of
hia manufactosy In Conn acsieut.
and convert it into an. Azmoty for the
manufacture Of b1seech-loading rifles, and
navy re7olsera. The prospect Of the Ad-
1piniet.ation actlngoa this edTice 'brought
the gentleman to his milk" He at ones
GAME down with handsome proposition.
He h&a offered to arm one regiment Of

TO COMPLAINING SUBbCRIREHS.
: Many Of our mail subscribers are writ
ing to this Office, complaining bitterly of
the irregularity with which their DAILY
TRIBUNE came to hand for the past few
weeks.
The trouble is beyond our power to
remedy. 1t lies with the New Route Agents
Who have not yet "got the hang Of the
barn" Packages are sent to the wrong
Offices, and others carried past the right
ones All sorts of mistakes are made,
causing delays and irregularity. Some Of
the Route Agents have got pretty well
broke in, and sommit but few errors !;
others learn more slowly, and make pad
work Of it.
The evil Of which our subscribers COM
plain, will cure itself by degrees Every
day it will grow less, as the Agents be-
come more expert and familiar with their
duties.
In relation to the complaints Of city sub
scribers Of late delivery, and Of news men
that they cannot get as many papers as
their orders call for, we have the pleasure
to announce that our new fast press has
been shipped from New York, and will be
here in few days, SO that in short time
the cause Of complaint will be removed,
Subscribers will have their TRIBUNE de.
lvered carly, and ths news dealers will be
nhun1a ,ffy- r,,pn1;o1 IN TINA far eli 4he
trains. Be patient lew days longer.

4 DKUM HEAD COURT MARITAL
NEEDED.

4 DRUM HEAD COURT MARITAL
NEEDED.
We are exceedingly reluctant to give
credence 10 the following from the New
York. Tines Washington dispatches and
we do not believe that the transactions re-
lated are evidences Of corruption. IF the
Times account is true in terms, there are
un4uestionably reasons connected with
the condition Of affairs ut the
time the beef and forage was contracted,
which, were they tobe delivered in Wash
ingtou, would justify the prices named We
print the extract only to put in CUT protest
against the 1obbing and peculation which
seem to be q part Of all military operations.
The Administrations most imperative du-
ty to the country is to see to it now, when
the people are willing to pour out their
money like water, for the public defence,
that their loyalty and generosity are
not abused by the train Of thieves who
will hang on to the rear guard Of the
armies of the Republic, out of the way Of
stray bullets, but ever ready for an attack
on the public Golfers. And the President
himself owes it to the friends who elected
him, to show no mercy to the men in office
high or low-wno prostitute their trusts
to the acquisition of shameful riches. We
would be glad to see all this contracting
for the supply Of troops put on a strictly
military basis, and out Of the reach of the
civil Law; and when an officer or con-
tractor is found guilty Of jobbing, pecula-
ton or fraud, to see him tried by-a drum
head court-martia1, and sent off to his rest
at once. Napoleon had way of doing
that thing which cannot be too highly
commended.
Every true friend of the Administration
will regret to learn that a, system Of disgrace
ful jobbipg has been commenced in connec-
tion with contracts for supplies for the troops.
Some Of these operations are too glaF{ng for
concealment.
The beef contract to which Z? referred last
| night, understand, is for twenty thousand
head Of cattle. The price to be paid, I am
| told, is eight cents gross-equA to fourteen
and half cents net = most extrayagant rate,
and which Will yield profit Of several hun.
dred thousand dollars. Bids would have pro-
! cuneda contract On terms saving the Govern
ment quarter Of a million dollars on this one
| Item.
| Another close contract made with John F.
Coyle, Of Washington, for blankets and KNAPP
sacks. Price not transpHed, but will surely
be found largely in excess Of the terms which
responsible parties in the trade would find re
mnnerative.
| Another Pennsylvai1ian has received con.
tract for blue cloth; and DR.. Mehaffay, ot
Pennsylvania, late one Of Forney's eubordi
| mates IN the House Of Representatives, has q
heavy contract for forage
