The washington correspcndente Ct the Chicago
4yibuas, one Of tho leading abolition papers Of
,he North-weat, has recently given an account
Of the state Of morals in and around the Nation
al Capital. The contrast which he presents is
NOT very Aatlsring to the present Republican
Administration. We republish the follogiag
paragraph from his lettcr: F, K fS I W
"The tone Of morality herei Is considerably
lower than It ever has been before. This 10 ad'
mitted on all hands, and can be proved, or rather
needs no proof, for the air 10 heavy with public
and private guilt. few years ago high Aus
trian official, whose peculations were discovered'
apolied the lancet to his own veins, and another
aiynilarly situated hanged himself. There 10 no
such sense of shame here. Any coroner's jury
10 Washington would 6nd verdict OF insanity
for such conduct, and the verdict would be ac'
cepted in good faith. The aoutherners, as a
class, had q very nice sense OF honor so lar as
tho public treasury was concerned. FLOYD was
an exceptlon--almost q solitary exception
\ the rule. When they held the power here mere
was comparatively little thleving' and wnen any
was discovered it was promptly exposed ana ue,
nounced. There has been change areaulu'
change for the worse. The frauds ana a"eLnP.,
ed frauds on the treasury IN one cnAnuel an1
another, come 60 fast, and from such unexpected
quarters, that one is bewildered in contemplating
them. Yet nobody has been brought to Justice
and nobody seems to think i possible that any
body should be brought to justice. 'un, those
fascally contraclors! says some honest man ~ "
the rural DISTRICTS. For every dollar wrongluiil
taken by contractor, foc hare oesn fasssH %
public sejuaats." *' ~ Ess',o9
i This certainly is alarming. Why is ittoler
atsd by an Administration which came Int
power, protesting honesty, and Promising re

TIE Journal, of this city, daily shows the
cloyen foot Of disloyalt5, in publishing letters
from Washington, intended to SOW dissensiOns
among Union men, and to strengthen the conf
dsnce of the secessionisls in the ultimate tfi
umph of their cause. In yesterdays issue OF
the Journal, 10 letter from Washington, 10
which the writer accuses General BUELL. of "dis-
affection toward the National Government" +"
and says that "l,yal men have no confidence In
McCLELLAN." If these charges are true, these
Generals ought not be retained in the service
another hour. If false, then the Journal is
playing Into the hands Of the rebels, by the
publication of base and malicious ISLANDERS
against our military leAdets. 'iS.3t eis4

morning brought to this city q large psrty Of
tomewhat noted visitors, from the far-oH
pralries Of the Indian Territory. The party

John Ross, his wife, children, and numerous
other relatives and friends, with their servants
in all fifty persons.
They ars on their way to Washington, yia
New York, for the transaction Of important
business pertaining to The welfare OF their
people. It will be remembered that John
Rces has ever been and is at this moment an
uuconp1omising Onion nau, and has done ali
in bis power, by example and patriotic NJ
teEancee, to keep his people free from the
contamina,irg influences OF secession,
after strange gods, and are noT In arms against
the Federal GLverpment. About three weeks
ago, RoEs and his relatives were oyerpowered
By superior numbers and forced to leave the
territory. Making the best Of thsir way to
St. Joseph, Mo-, they came from thence by
rail to this city, and left Last evening, on the

On arriving ut the Federal capital they viii
