POLITICAL PERsEcGTIoS AT THE ACADEMY OF

the Academy of Medicine was held on
Wednesday evening, when The time was ex-
elusive ly occupied IN the discussion OF the
charges of sympathy with the South made
against Dr. Thomas, the Secretary ,at the last
meeting of the Academy. The d ebate was
very warm, in the Committee OF the Whole
DIR. Thomas stated that he had prepared u
written communication 10 the Academy
which he would present, provided he were
allowed to read the minutes of the meeting.
1t was not, however, received. DIR. Thomas
then rendered his resignation, at the same
time denying the right of the Academy to
cues tion him as 10 his political opinions, yet
he ayerred that the charges made against
him were entirely untrue. The resignation
was not acted upon. The Committee rose

Quartermaster Staff has been realized even
by such military nation as the French. The
English were first TO excel iii this res pect and
their system has been adopted and made part
and parcel OF military instruction in France.
Let the Cuartermaster Generals and the
Commissary Generals departments be ad-
ministered with ability and honesty, and tho
hordes of specuiators who essay TO fatten
upon spoIiations OF the treasury in times OF
sort of characters here and else W here are now
seriously embarrassing Gen. Scott, the Cabi
net and other superior officers, by urging
hot-haste sort OF war policy, the object being
to so preclpltate matters that there shall be
no time to uvit5 proposals TOR the delivery OF
articles, to the end that contracts shall be
given to the lowest bidders.
Thus If Gen. Scott should be forced to ad-
vance into Virginia, and be driven back, then
the exigencles OF the public service would be
still greater than they now are, and there
would then be no end to preying upon the
public treasury.
There is no such eXigency now AS that lead
inc articles of the DlGtertel OF war shall not be
furnished by lowest bidders.

DEATH or PRINCE ORLoFF The last arrival

statesman, who has long occupied important
public stations.
He was born in 1887, entered the Russian
army at an early age, and after serving
through the campaigns against Napoleon, be-
came aid de camp TO the Emperor Alexander
i. III 1884, and Colonel of q regiment of the
horse guards. During the insurrection which
folio wed the accession of the Emperor Nicho-

in crushing the rebellion, that he was at once
taken into the confidence of his imperial mas

honors and emoluments greater than had be-
fore fallen to the lot of any subject OF the EN- :
pire. In 1896 he represented Russia in the
Congress of Paris, and at the close OF the ne.
gotiatlons was appointed President of the

THE MADNESS OF THE ApafNIsrRATIoN.-Un-
der this caption the Baltimore Republican
says:
The vindictive madness and malignity of
the Administration can find no parallel In all
past history. This blood thirsty set would "a 9.
terry destroy the country and surrender up
its dearest rights to foreign nations for the
sake OF subIugating th4 South. That misera-
Die hypocrite, Seward, who pretended to be
so Conservative and peacefully disposed, is
trying hard TO buy the countenance of Eng
land and France, by surrendering TO them the
right OF privateering-the only mari time de
fence of the country in times of war. This
proposal shows the fieadish spirit which ami.
mates the Administration, and how su.
premely ridiculous it is to hope for any peace.
tul measures from such source. The coun-
try must prepare for bloody and protrac ted
war-a most bitter and desolating strife-ii
the tyrants and madmen at Washington art
not promptly checked by the indignant voice
of an outraged people.
The South mast grid on her armor and
stand up with the old spirit of her Marions
and her Pickenses, or she will be overrun by
the fanaticai hories which the North is rails.

doubted. A brave and united people like thai
of the South, with ample means, and Il eli

must and will maintain their rights i'm def

His arm is doubIy neryed whose cause is in

them and the hosts of their invaders will be
scattered and the evil counsels OF their enc
mics brought to naught.
