The Dishonesty.

Iu reply to remarks Of the Conserva-
tive in reference to tie draft. the Bord-
er Sentinel says:
..During the month Of February
there we're enlisted at this place eigh.
men that We know of-all residents Of
this county. These men were recruit
ed by 1t. Norris. Of the 9Th Kansas.
and seat to Leavenworth By him. in
charge Of one Of the recruiting party
stationed at this place. The men were
reported to Capt. McCahon, and TO him
was delivered the enlistment Of each Of
these eight men. These enlistments.
forwarded by 1t. Norris. we're uncere
moniously declared contraband by the
Captain. and destroyed; the men were
enlisted anew, mustered aud credited,
doubtless, to Leavenworti-at least
McCahon informed as that they were
not credited to Linn county. and would
oot tell where they were credited.
Again, on the l2rh Of March, Lieut..
Norris sent. in charge of Crager.one Of
the recruiting party here. four men,
These. together with their enlistments.
were reported to Capt. McCahon on
the 18Th of March. These enlis,ments
shared the same fate Of the others. and
these four men were enlisted anew
We are unable 10 say where these four
men were credited; all We know is. that
McCalon said that he would credit
them to Linn county. For the trans
portation of :hese recruits from this
place to Leavenworth, 1t. Norris paid
aud is entitled to have the amount thus
advanced refunded. 1t. Norris is also
entitled to premium upon each recruit.
The records and papers Of McCahon's
Office do not show that 1t. Norris ever
sent any recruits to Leavenvorth, and
not even that he enlisted any men. By
this arrangement. he is swindled out Of
the money he paid for transportation Of
recruits. and the amount he was en,i-
tied to as premium ? and Linn county
is swind!ed out of eight men, certain.
and probably twelve men. or more."
1, is entirely unnecessary for US to
tell our readers that this ''piuk Of per-
feciion." who thus attempts 10 defraud
q county Of her enlisted men. and to
swindle a recruiting officer Of his pay
and expenses, is loud in his denuncia-
lions of the senatorial Fraud" or
course he is. II he Vas not some
thing would be out Of order in the
''eternal fitness Of things" Especially
the Mings-and We might be alarmed.
But it is all right. "Birds of q feather
hock together" like master like
man. "The greaiest rogue cries stop
ulief the !oudest." "Grsat is Diana Of
the Ephcs:ans" when 1.-THE craft is in
danger"
There is an object in this. What is
il? Is the swindle designed for the
purpose Of cheating 1t. Nor
rs oui Of his pay that it may 60 into
he pocket Of the ''lost carpet-sack"
ra'ernity ! How many other recruit
na officers are served the same way !?
Are these considered part Of the
