IYeartless Infamy.

Reports from Washington state that
the Burnside Expedition has been great
" embarrassed by the discovery Of con
tractors frauds, and swindles IN the
purchase and chartering of transports,
and that vessel captains, who are cv'dcn-
tly in collision with the swind!ers, tried
to wreck chartered vessels in order to
make a profitable sale to the Govern
ment 1t is suspected also that there
were not a few traitors aboard the feet
who, taking advantage of the storm, did
their utmost to cripple the expedition.
These charges, we arc glad to learn,
are to be ri-;id|y investigated, resolu-
ton having been introduced in the
Senate yesterday, by Mr. Grimes, calling
for information as to how and from
whom vessels have been purchased or

men,, the prices paid, how and by whom
inspected, &c.

THE DIFFERENCE,

Tho Cedar Democrat believes that our
army should be used as a National police
- return runaway slaves, and that any
officer or soldier who will not do it is an
sbolitionist, and dislsyal; runaways must
be returned whether the rebellion is pu,
down or not. We believe that Congress
has declared that slaves are to be dcliv-
cred up through and by civil officers, that
the army has and should have nothing 10
do with it. We believe that the sole du.
y OF the army is TO put down the rebel.
lion, and let slavery take care of itself.
II the latter comes in our way, crush it;
II Il does not, let it alone Ii in putting
down the rebellion We also put down
s'avery-as consequence, not as part
Of our policy-then let slavery 90 down.
The country has too many interests at
stake, just now, to pause in its march for
the sake Of chaflering about tho "pecu-
liar institution" or of arguing in regard
either to its right or wrongs. Firh. first,
snd settle all matters that remain to be
settled afterwards, is our doctrine. !

specie now on hand, or hereafter co'ec-
ted, for said notes. Treasurcrs and their
sureties are liable for all damages the
State may sustain for failure to pay to
