ALEXANDRIA GAZETTE AND VIRGINIA ADVERTISER
PUBLIC THIEVES.
IFrom the Washington Chronicle.

Ever since the war commenced the Govern
ment has been robbed Apparent friends and
SUSPECTED enemies have been alike concerned,
and It is both just and appropriate, in such
a neriod as we have passed through, to make
. new classification for the benefit of those who
have cared nothing for the principles Of either
side in the great contest but have only sought
throughout to benefit themselves. We may
select men Of this class from almost any de-
nartment of the army, and from every rank
in society. Officers have made false returns.
Ouartermasters have sold Government stores
and pocketed the proceeds. Commissaries
who have been ordered to sell stores to the
famished population OF the conquered States,
have defrauded the Government by taking
money for supplies never furnished, and sup
plying goods that never were issued. Sur
geons have sold their stores and made them
selves rich from their corruptions. Weapons
have been retained or given away as trophies,
which should have been credited to the United
States Government Horses and mules have
been special object Of peculatlon Othcers
have drawn forage to which they had no legal
right, and endeavored to ship off horses to
which they had no legal title. Prlvates have
stolen horses and mules and. sold them tor
song. Suffers and other hangers on IN the
army have engaged in this business, and often
times not only defrauded the Government,
but individuals also. Perhaps these persons
consider themselves safe. They are very
much mistaken.
The Richmond Times, in an article on the
Cholera, urging preparation and precautlon,
says:-''The moral and material elements OF
our sanitary condition in the United States are
iustnow peculiarly favorable to the rapid and
deadly spread Of such an epidemic as the cho-
lera. 1t may come to us at any moment, IN
the next steamer that shall arrive, for we know
only that it travels with mankind and that
mankind never travelled SO much or so fast as
now"

The process of making paper from corn
husks, which has been agitated for several
years past, is still being pressed upon the at
tcntIon Of capitalists, and something may yet
come of it. II las been recently presented ut
length in an article read before the Institute of
Technology In Boston, by Mr.. Bond. The e1-
periments upon this material cover q period
of eleven years It has been satisfactorily
demonstrated tint the corn husk, If deprived
by alkaline treatment Of It's gluten, yields q
lnc, strong fibre, which is not only excellent
and cheap paper stock, but has been made
into strong and scrriccable cloth. The hnsks
yield 20 per cent Of this useful material, Of
which 10 per cent Is cloth fibre, II per cent
gluten, a nutritious article of oil-cake order,
and 10 per cent OF paper stock. There Is one
thing to be said of this md other new methods
Of paper making, which is, that on small
scale, and by processes from their small mag
nItude easily watched, there Is no question as
to the result Of excellent fibre and paper, but
the difficulty is that the processes are less
adapted to large operations, If not entirely
impractfcable. II Is tho old story of the

NORTH CAR0LlNA,

Tie President, In his significant despatch to
Gov. Holden, intiuates that North Carolina
hns fallen far short o. the requirements OF
tile Federal Government, and that unless her
legislature atoncs To- The shortcominy of her
convention, she will be likely to remain 'sout
IN the cold'' for some time. But alas, 1t is
the legislature that will show still more
plainly the cloyen foot. The Mississippi and
South Carolina conventions both made fair
show ofretufuing sense, under the impress
sion that by slight temporary sacrt-
fiee they could soon get back
into Congress and then have things
al. their own way. But no sooner did their
Legislatures meet to 1ane the permanent
laws the statethan they enacied that no
colorcd person should ever own or lease foot
| Of The soil Of the State, md made score OF
similar ridiculous " laws'' which arc not to be
thought Of for moment. No Congress will
ercr admit State which prescrlbes such a
"bill Of rights" for freeman. North Caro-.
Inns and the other Southern States will IN.
doubtedly follow In the wnke Of South Caro-.
,, lima and Mississippi, and thus Congress will
at Inst be compelled by the incxorable logic
Of events to rive the baliot to the friedman.

From tbe New 1otk Evening Postl
The gradcal diminution of the H waterfall, ~
which begun several months ago, Was thought
BY come persons TO Indicate that that curious
so-cal1ed ornament of the head would be i'm
mcdiately expelled from fashionable society.
But there are still many advocates Of the
waterfall, and the strong argument advanced
bonnet requires the dressing Of the hair after
the waterfall plan, In some Of its modiaca-
tlons; aud less effective and more comprc-
bensive statement Is, that the neck would be
much exposed If the fashion were abolished
There are several other acceptable styles Of
dressing the hair, some Of them Of excellent
dcsien; persons Of the most varied tastes may
be suited fu all save one respect-the cxtrav
agant use Of talse hair IL not diminished.

coil, costs from fifteen to scventy-Gve dol

cost usually not less than twenty-five dollars;
while sometimes much higher price is
charged The rates vary, not so much on nc
