Military LeaEers.

We have had in our midst, for soma two
months past, couple of Military Loafsrs
from Capt. Cunningham's company who baye
spent q portion Of their time in inducing boys
70 violate their engage ments, and leave their
homes and employment contrary to the wish
es Of their parents; and they have succeeded
In clIndestneIy running off some three OF
tour from this place in mean, underhanded
and disEonerable way. The boys, we under
stand, were sworn in secretly by Lieut. John
Brown, oise of the persons sef@rel to aJooe,
and instructed by him not to permit their
parents to know that they intended going;
thereby preventing them from being furnished
withthe necessary clothig to make them COM
Portable. II these Military Loafeys were kept
In camp and compelled TO do military duty,
and, in that way, qualify themselves to rem
der the country some service, they might,
perhaps, command the respect Of the eommu-
nifty from which they hail. But that cannot
be bad by loafug around some two months
at time, at y cost OF upwards OF one hum
dred dollars q month to the Government.
Well, we cannot see any other cause
that prompted our neighbor in defa-
ming these men, except that which ac-
taatea the Tribune and Gazette-.jeal-
ousy; with this difference. AS they
are Republicans, and our neighbor be-
ing one too, he is fearful that when
the war is over they might wish to be

has entirely too much of the small dem
agogue about it. He knows just as
well as we do, that every rascal that
has been exposed in robbing the Gov
ernment, since the present Admnistra-
ton went into power, from Simon Ca
meron down, was supporter of Abra-
ham Lincoln for the Presidency.
Floyd's crime, while acting as Sec
retary of War, consisted in placing
more munitions of war in Southern Ar
senals than said Arsenals were entitled
to. And when his rascality was dis
covered, he was politely invited to re-
sign his place in the Cabinet--just in
the same manner that Mr.. Lincoln in-
vited one of Floyds successors in the
same office (Simon Cameron to do.
Neither Floyd, nor any other member
of Mr.. Buchanan's Cabinet, entrusted
millions of money in the hands of ire
sponsible pets, such as Cummins, Nor
gan & Co. That was left for an Ad-
ministration to do, that was going (as
Bingham use to say in 1S60) ''to bring
back the Government to the days of
Washington and Jefferson Floyd
was and is a grand rascal, and deserves
severe punishment; but with all his
sins, while Secretary of War, he can
net ''hold a candle with some of the
pets of the present Administration in
robbing the Government.

and to force the Administration, against liz
Judgment, expressed after deliberation, tc
employ him in some one Of the Hillary De
partments. He (Blair) had seen it stated ia
telegrams that Gen. Fremont had again and
again demanded trial. This is not true.
Mr. Riddle OF Ohio asked on what author.
lty the gentleman made the last statement
Mr.. Blair, resuming. said: No demand fol
a trial has been made, unless it has been dont
within the last twoaor three days. Gen
Fremont had not made the demand at all, fol
he (Blai,) bad taken pains to SATISFY bimsel
of the TACT, by inquiry al the office OF the
Adjutant. General, and at that of the Judge
Advocate OF the army. II was most extra
ordinary that an officer ol the army. charged
with crime, mntiny and misconduct OF the
war, and deposed from his command in con-
sequence oi these charges, should not ask q
trial. He ventured the assertion that II Gen.
Fremont will, demand trial. the Admnistra.
ton will grant it.
1t had also been heraIded that the commit

Ma. EprroR;--It Is painful to witness the
efforts Of man aud beast to ford our streets jus.
now. Less than year ago our Burrough paid
q1ite smart SUN for repairs; and we submit
the decision to all observing people II our
streets are not much worse now than before the
repairs. How comes this to passf The an
swer Is obvious. Instead Of gravelling our
streets, they we're filed up with sort OF shale-
putty, that was certain to dissolve under
the action OF sun and rain, and become just
what we now ind them. Such was the predic-
ted results when cart loads Of this miserable
stuff we're being emptied into our streets.
Now what are we TO do for our relefH OF
course we can do nothing OF present, but wade
through the mud until il dries up, sometime
this side Of Dog-days. But what then--wa'1
for a return next fall and spring. or do some
thing effectual for the betterment Of our main
thoroughlare.
Now, Mr.. Editor, we venture to commend
new method of obtaining good, hard dry
road:
Charcoal when mashed, mixed with sand aud
wet down becomes almost as solid ns cement
Put down before the dry warm summer, i
would soon become mashed and mixed with
our sandy soil and wet down so as not tc
trouble US with coal dust; while at the samC
time it was hardening into mOcadamizcd con
sisteDey.
The FIRST impression naturally will be, its ex
psnsiveness Now, suppose it should take tw'
thousand bushels Of charcoal to make gooC
foundation. In this wood country soft Goa
cannot be very expensive,-say sir cents pc
bushel. One hundred aud twenty dollars, ther
would foot the bill and give US good dry streets
Much cheaper than the present grayeling sys
TEN. II any body can suggest better an
cheaper way, why let US have it. Anything
but rivers Of mud. SUFFERER.
