HE TELEGRAPH AND THE DISPATCHES.
"A short time since we made some complaint,
because, during the prevalence of heavy fog,
our dispatches we're withheld all night, when
there was an unoccupied wire between this
city and Boston; and the manager of the line
in the latter city thought we were unjustly
severe upon the parties under his immediate
supervision. e aslaa
We are gratined in being able to state that
the Associated Press were in no way respon.
sible for the annoyance to which we were sub-
jected, and that the Telegraph Company ac-
knowled the justice of our complaint by
promptly refunding the money collected for
the night during which the pre-oocupancv OF
the lines precluded them from furnishing us
with the dispatches. =---
Our rights having been fully recognized, and
all the reparation possible under the circum
stances having been hor orably made, we
are satisfied. and do not care to INQUIRE upon
whom, or where rested the blame for the evil
of which we complained. We are satisfied the
operators and managers of the lines are dis
posed to do all that is reasonable to accommo-
date the press of the State, and that such an
noyances as we complained of are not likely
to be repeated.

The Smithsonian Institution.

To the Editor of the Press:
Il regret to see that your irregular
Washington correspondent, sDuke," devotes
a large portion of his last letter to decrying
the Smithsonian. Institution. His rhapsody
hardly admits of a serious answer, and yet it
seems improper to allow any misrepresenta-
ton, however incoherent and improbable, to
go utterly uncontradcted. The Smithsonian
Institution has collected library of the trans
actions of learned societies, unique on this
continent; has established system of ex-
changes by which every cabinet of natural
history in the land has profted; has published
In its own Contributions to Knowledge"
otherwise have lain useless in manuscript;
has contributed from its funds to the publi-
chanics," which are an honor to the American
name; has organized system of meteorologi-
. cal observations at stations all over North
America, with results already apparent. These
are only illustrations of its manifold and wise
ly directed activity. In every nook and cor
ner of these United States, you may find some

derived either direct or indirect assistance in
his studies from the Smithsonian Institution.
And yet your Washington correspondent,
after the late fire, says he 'only regretted it
did not all CO."
1t is customary in Washington, among q
certain class ofpoliticians, to Willy the Smith
sonian Institution, because Prof. Henry has
sedulously kept its purely scientific interests
free from political complication. He refused to
make his lecture room bear garden for con-
tending stump orators. So such Republicans as
"Duke' on one hand, and their counterparts in
the Democratic party on the other, unite in ar
dent protestation against such palpable mis-
appropriation of Smithson's bequest-to pure
ly scientific purposesl No one who knows
me will doubt the sincerity and depth of nv
political convictions. AS Republican, 1
desire TO enter my protest against this absurd
vilifcation of scientific institution, for being
only scientific and not political engine.

Gen. Sherman arrived here last night at sun
down TO consult with Gen. Grant. His arriv.
al was surprise to every one except Gen.
Grant, who, about an hour before his coming,
informed the President that VIM. T. Sherman
was coming. The President exclaimed, "You
are Joking, General" No, he will be here
in an hour" replied Grant. The President
was oveTjoyed Admiral Porter was informed
of his expected arrival and gave salute.
There were six men in council last night
whose names will live in history-President
Lincoln, Gems. Grant, Sherman, Sheridan,
Meade and Ord. " want an hours talk with
you" Sherman said to Grant when he landed
Certainly, certainly" was Gen. Grants re-
ply, and the two Generals walked off togeth-
er, both smoking, and as cordial to each other
as two school boys. What was said or done
will be known only when the words have be-
