Corruption fostering at the Heart.

The Washington correspondent of the Spring.
field (Massachusetts) Rpubliesn (Abo.), in a
recent letter, makes the following statement:
I had curious experience the other day;
called with L. upon public officer high In
position. We had important business, quickly
dispatched, or you would not have found me
there. Suddenly Mr.. - turned to L. and
said, "By the way, We can make you Brga'
der General" L. stared, and then answered,
"No, am not fit for that; know nothing Of
military maltsrs" 30, no matter, you know
ss much 90 most of them, and you shall have q
commission for two thousand dollars." L.,
looked still mere as.onished, and repeated the
assurance that he was not &c for the place.
The funciionary evidently thought he hesitatsd
at the price. 40" said be. ''it is cheap, but
we are under obligations 20 your family, which
I wish to repay, and ! want to do something
for you, else you could not have IL for double
the cum"
That 10 told out Of school, aBd discloses the
corruption that is praosiced in the Executive
Department. There are now upward Of twenty
Major and Brigadier;G Generals Who are without
special commands. In other words, they wear
the decorations, draw the pay, but perform no
service. They seem to have the idea, at Wash
ington, that the country 10 on the high road to
destruction, and they might as well make all
out of II they can before It reaches the bot
tom.

cover Of the cistern, at the back Of the house,
and commenced jumping on IL. The wood be.

cistern. The other children, being frightened
at bis disappearance, ran of screaming. The
woman OF the house, alarmed at the cries, rai
out, and heard the boy struggling in the water
She pulled of the cover of the cistern and
jumped in, and succeeded in getting hold Of the
boy as be was sinking for the last time.
The cistern was 90 deep that she was unable
to get out, but remained there, keeping thu
boys head above water, and shouting for help
until some of the neighbors rushed In ant

at the following conclusion. The next Speaker
will be the Hon. Samuel 8. Coz, Of Ohio. The
experience Of Mr.. Coz % member, his emil

The Congressional Election in Missouri

forty per cent. OF this Congressional vote the

Making all due allowances for persons who
may have voluntarily absented themselves from

mense reduction In the vote elbows that thou
sands upon thousands were, from various
reasons, prevented from voting. The Rpub.
liean puts down this number ct from forty 10
fifty thousand. d
It Is charged upon pretty satiafactory evil
dencs that many illegal votes we're cast on the
radical revolutionary side BY persons only cas-
ually present IN the State. Great latitude was
allowed for the reception Of such votes. Many
thousands were probably given. The ReprtI.
can reckons these illegal radical votes at FIVE
thousand, and the number Of voters who either
declined to vote, or were deferred from voting
ct forty FIVE thousand, and presents the follow
ing tabular statement, showing how partial and

The Republican adds:
We have no question that the number Of our
citizens who wish to sustain our political insti.
tutions and republican liberty and order In their
integrity, vastly preponderates over those who,
whether from though ghtlessness or design, urge
on O policy and measure, which would plunge
