A BIT OF ScAxDAL.-'rhe New York cor
respondent of tho philadelphia Press says the
Russian officers wero astenished at the num-
Der Of w.ll-drpssed women. representatives
. Of wealth and blood" who swarmcd the decks
during the s.ay Of the fleet in New York, beg
ging everything which might serve as sou-
venirs from their gallant hosts. Snuff boxes,
cigar cases, charms and baubles-some OF them
of great value. and the gifts of friends or rela-
tives at homc-were asked in manner which
would admit Of no refusal whatever. Many
articles purchased by the officers during their
trip to Niagara were thus con6scated by the
Wholesale and in one instance ship OF the
squadron was thoroughly stripped Of every
silver coin (Russian) by these same vulgar
curiosity hunters.

proceedings against him. Even this last cir
cumstance he has had the impudence to
boast of es an additional evidence of his
power at Washington, and his ability to bid
defiance to the people among whom he has
made himself, both by conduct and manupr,
SO peculiarly odious. (See, for proof of this,
the petition Of the Federal officers of Wash
ington Territory, and also the letters Of ]. r.
Mcbride. Of Oregon, and w. H. Wallace, of
Washington Territory, marked "H." and
"1.") Even admitting that Mr.. Smith is in
nocent Of the many grave and serious charges
made against him, his retention in office in
community so fully impressed with his un.
worthiness, and who feel and resent it as an
insult and an outrage, would be neither Just
nor wise. 1t could be no possible benefit to
him to remain surrounded by those who
daily charge him with every species of fraud.
and result in bringing into, not only disre-
spect. but disgrace, the persons connected
with the National Administration, and the
ruin Of its cause in that Territory.
Believing that the President will apprpci-
ate the importance of the action solicited in
this matter: and that competent person can
be found to take the place in whom the Gov.
emment and people have entire confidence. I
ask the removal of the present incumbent,
Victor Smith.
Respectfully submitted,
BY your ob't serv't,
A. G. HENRY.
SUPPLEMENTAL STATEMENT.
Mr. President:
In my statement of reasons for asking the
removal Of Victor Smith. Collector of Gus
toms for the Puget Sound District, which
submitted to Your Excellency last evening,
did not allude to the statement of Special
Agent Brown, that while the cost Of the
Hospital under Smiths predecessor was 1884,.
600, Mr.. Smith had conducted it for a cor
responding period for less than $4,000. /
find upon examination of the official records,
that the expenses Of the four last quarters of
Mr.. Smiths predecessor was &l7,95l 25,
and that the expenses of the tmo first quar-
ters under Collector Smith was $9, ,294 90.
Now, assuming that the next two quarters
cost the same. Il could not gain access to
his account in the Treasury fur these two
quartcrs,) the total cost of Hospital for one
year of Smiths administration would be
Sl8, ,58S; just six hundred thirty-six dollars
and seventy-five cents MORE than that Of his
predecessor. instead of being $4,000 LESS as
stated by Mr.. Brown in his report to the
Treasury Department. 1t is therefore ap-
parent that Smith has falsifed the figures
and imposed them upon Mr.. Brown. This
fact assumes Importance for the reason that
great credit is claimed for Mr.. Smith on tho
ground Of his large sarings to the Govern
mcnt. ! am quite sure that if allowed free
access to the records of the Treasury DE.
par'mcnt, so far as they relate to the Puget
Sound Custom House, would show that
Victor Smith has spent largely more money
than his predecessor for corresponding
period.
Respectfully submitted,
BY your ob't serv't,
A. G. HENRY.

ExANclPArION IN RUssIA.-Thc follow
ing is an extract from letter written by a
gentleman who is at present travelling In
Russia:
The emancipation of the scrfs is no
sham," but great and noble reality, car
ried through with caution and courage that
do equal honor to the heart and head OF the
Emperor. 1t is scarcely possible to measure
the grandeur of this peaceful revolution by
which nearly 4O,OOO,OOO of people arc raised
from a condition closely akin to slavery, to
the level of free men of other civilized States.
This great act is consummated, with COM
paratively little suffering, and large pros
poets of future advantages to the mobiles and
proprietors of land, save only those whose
estates should come under an lncumbered
Estates Act. The emancipated serfs arc al
ready displaying a d gree Of intelligence and
industry that surprises their former owners !;
establishing schools. laying out boarded mon
ey on lands and tcnemrnts, and in many
other respects showing great intelligence and
sagacity.
McCLLLLAx VS.. McCLELLAN.-"O Occa-
sionar' .(John W. Fornry) in letter to the
philadelphia P,~ss, explains tue plan which
tho Union men of PhiIadcldhia adopted on
election day to spoil the effect of the d" last
,c'rA" Of 'hc opposition, which was Gen; Nc
Cielan's letter in favor of Woodward. They
published in all tho loyal journals letter
"Little M,c" had written just one year pre-
viously strongly praising Gov. Curtin. "Oe-
casional" says g 1t was an amusing sight to
ser posted at eve,y precinct poll in Philadel-
phia, the letter of MJor General George B
Mcclellan applaudins Andrew G. Curtin for
his activity and energy in strengthening bis
army in one of the darkest hours OF the cam
paign of 1862, and by the side Of that letter
another from the same General Mcclellan
asking the people of Pennsylvania to vote for
George w. Woodward, who had never given
mtterance to one single sentiment in favor OF
the war. and had never sloken word III ia
'vor Of the same George B. Mcclellan.
