The fanatics are now haunted by Wis

This last step of the radicals is in pcr-

IN For the Grand Haven News.
To the People of Michigan.

/ We, the undersigned, 10 respectfully
address the following 70 the kind citizens
of this State:
There is an Institution at Flint, which
was got up for the education Of the Deaf,
Dumb and Blind; but as far as concerns
the blind it has never answered that end.
However, they, the Trustees and Princi-
pal, have no interest for the Blind, but
merely look to filing their own pockets
out Of the State Treasury. We petition
ed the Superintendent, Mr.. Fay, to en-
ploy competent teacher-as the one we
had was not competent TO teach music.
He said that rs one, Miss, johnson, was
engaged for term he would have TO put
up with her. And thus il has been 90
ing on since the Asylum first started,
some nine years since.
We will here remark that hegreat Oh
ject Of the Blind in going there is to learn
music. But tho Asylum never produced
single musician, though many Of the
pupils possessed good talents for the art.
Wo next petitioncd the Legislature; but
they sent committee who visited the
Institution, and they were, Of course, too
polite 10 offend the officers of the Insti-
tuition by anything that might be consid-
cred offensive inquiries. Our petition was
disregardcd. Hence VIC could not better
our condition by staying there, and have
accordingly fled from the Institution, hop
ing that our fellow citizens will inquir ein-
to the matter.
Any man who, visits Flint can easily
find out that it is a grand imposition up
on the public. All we ask is that you
investigate the matter. The future well
fare Of the Blind of the State is in your
hands. We beg Of YOU to help us in our
extremity.

to you in Sleeps clothing, out inwardIy

DoN'T SANCTION THE IDEA.-We are
pleased to note that Congress has just
done an act that can not fail, we think, to
meet the appreciation of every true lover
of justice and right. 1t appears batch
of some pin-feathered, political military
leaders, to the number of twenty, for the
exalted and most responsible position of
Major Generals, and some fifty more for
the important trust Of Brigadier Gener-
ais, was recently presented to Congress
for approval and confirmation, when 10 F!
to the utter amazemcnt and discontinue
of the President and the half-f1edged as
pirants their promotion was individually
and collectively rejected. The idea is,
that, hereafter, all honors in the army are
to be earned by meritorious conduct-one
of the most hopeful signs of the times.
We have had enough of milk-and-wat
Generals to disgrace the military service.
Hereafter we trust we are to have men.

Frauds /! Frauds!! Frauds u!

EU u
We scarcely take up n leading journal
of the day but that startling announce
ment of frauds and swindlings, on stu
pendous scale, greets the eye on almost
every page: Frauds in the Eastern De-
partment-frauds in the Quartermasters'
Observation-Disclosures in the Contract De-
partment, beyond all precedent or human
conception-frauds in the Subsistence
Departmental short, cheating, swind-
ling and robbing, by millions, in jsssry
Department. Quickly following the dis
covery recently made of immense sums
abstracted from the Custom receipts, du-
ring the present National Administration,
is that of loss of twenty-five millions
of dollars, stolen in the Quartermaster's
Department, during the last few months.
Does history show a more corrupt age
than the present one, wherein the love Of
lucre has become more emphatically the
root Of all eva?
Congress is, at last, wisely turning its
attention to the crying sin Of sponging
and literally robbing, now so daring and
open in its operations, and it is really to
be hoped that offenders will hereafter be
most summarily punished, be they in po-
sitions high or low. Let the punishment
be death, if need be, to stop this vultur-
Gus preying upon the life and soul of the
Government. We fear and conscientiously
believe the war will never close so long
rs splendid fortunes are thus to be made
out Of it.

Ship Canal around Niagara.

Since the rejection by Congress of the
proposition TO unite the waters of Lake
Michigan with those of the Mississippi,
by means of a Ship Canal, and the en-
largement of the Erie Canal, so rs to al
low the passage of gunboats, the atten-
tion of the country is at once directed to
the feasibility Of providing transit for
vessels and gunboats from Lake Erie TO
Ontaria, by means of ship canal, the
shortest possible route by way Of the Nj
agara River, avoiding the rapids, falls and
dangerous rocks below. That such q
canal can be constructed without n vast
outlay Of means is fully accredited, and a
proposition has already been submitted to
Congress by responsible party 10 do the
job.
In case trouble should unfortunately
arise in our foreign relations, and thereby
our now peaceful neighbors should be-
come hostile enemies, some avenue Of
transit, from one point 10 another, on our
frontier lakes, will be found Indispensable
Therefore, if Congress deems the nation
too poor TO enter successfully upon the
two enterprises first above named, let u:
do the next best act and canal the valley

day of February, q day dear TO the heart
of every American as the anniversary Of
the birth of Washington, has again dawn

graduation that amid all the strife and
tumult of war that has so devastated and
bligbted almost every portion Of the once
fair State Of Virginia, the grave of Che
beloved patriot, statesman and father OF
his country remains undesecraled- that
his ashes still repose in the quiet shades

composing the Seventh Michigan Cavalry
left Grand Rapids, on Monday last, for
the scat Of War, accompanied by two
sections of the splendid German Battery,
under command of Lieut.. Schill. The
horses left on Thursday last, in charge Of
twenty men, detailed TO that duty. Tho
citizens of Grand Rapids, with their &C.
customed generosity, provided the Regi-
ment with q splendid rcpast, on the eve
of its departure, doing the matter up
brown, if we may credit reports. a.1
A new feature in The Regiment is tho
selecting of one or more from each Com
pany 10 constitute Guard of Honor
each one Of which is furnished silver

majority of the men composing the Sew
enth, rs TO all those essentials that are
required to make men, that we predict
they will never dshonor the State, but
will act we'll and bravely the part assign

of them.

Roll OF HoNoR.-General Rosccrans
has issued an order establishing Rolls of
Honor for mcritorious conduct in Com
pany, Regiment, Brigade and Division, in
his department. This is q move in the
right direction, and well worthy of imita-
tion by Major Generals universally. The
fact Tint the most important and respon-
siblc positions in the army have been
metcd out TO favorites, regardless of fit
ness, and to the Encouragement Of those
who might otherwise aspire to more Gle
waited positions, through well-earned mer-
it and bravery on the battle field, has OPP
Grated greatly TO our disadvantage, and
in more cases than one, has caused the
defeat Of our arms, when victory would
have been certain under more efficient
leaders, Hereafter every mcrritorious act
of bravery and true military skill is to be
noted in the Department under the gal
liant Rosecrans, and we shall doubtless
soon hear of scores of our brave Michi-
gan boys, who, true TO the honor Of their
State, and in remembrance of the golden
honors already won in many hotly con
tested battle, arc found worthy to be en-.
rolled on this imperishablc scroll Of fame
and honor, and receive the rich reward
that merit ever commands, l'.9
