FROM W ASHINGTON,
Discovery of Extensive Frauds by
Cotton Agents.

UlnCOVeEV Oh ENIenSlVe EFnu00 DIV
Cotton Agents.
New YORK, Nov. 23.-A Herald WASH
ington special says: The investigation
going on by the Retrenchment committee
has developed facts which implicate parties
occupying high and influential positions
under Government in the cotton frauds.
A great deal of fraud, more than at first
supposed, has been practiced upon the
Government and citizens of the South by
the cotton agents. 1t appears that these
agents were In the habit of confiscating
large quantities of cotton in the name of
the Government, and after 1t had remained
on their hands for short time they would
turn 1t over to an outside party, who sold
II and divided the proceeds with the agents.
Another game which was resorted to ex-
tensively by these men, was to release the
cotton upon the payment Of handsome
bonus.
u Articles OF impeachment.

Radicals had meeting In Philadelphia, on

bounty TO COIOred Soldiers.
At conference between the Second

quired, but full effect given to the law of
Congress approved June 10Th, 1866, and the
onlAiaH aan nrha ha haf g . ha
ton, IL the contrary did not appear upon
the muster rolls, and the bounty allowed If
otherwise entitled. The Second Auditor
has decided that where discharged cOlored
soldiers have applied, or may hereafter ap-
ply, to his office for any arrearages of pay
not paid on final discharge, or for any boun-
ty provided by the act Of July 22d, 1866, he
will also allow, in the settlement of such
claims, the additional bounty provided by

All fe,Aslx.

The paragraph we quote is from
theNewsYork Euening tPoss, in for
mer days strong anti-slavery paper,
and lately somewhat radical in its
views. The Post, now, says:
"Let us try new plan. Let us
say to the Southern people, eyou
shall be in all things as free, as we
are; you shall be represented in Con
gress; you shall say what you please;
shout for whom you please, wear
what coIors you like, elect whom YOU
Like; we only require that you shall
grant the same right to us, that you
shall keep the peace, obey and en-
force the laws, and protect all others
in the right which you demand for
yourselves. We believe there is COM
mon sense enough among the South
ern people, and statesmanship enough
among their leading men to accept
and fulfill these conditions, and where
they find it difficult at the moment,
to receive kindly the assistance of the
General Government. And if there
is not, we are strong enough to en-
force these simple rights, and we are
bound to do SO with utmost vigi-
lance"
This is good advice, and if the
Post, which is an influential paper,
can bring its partizans i'll Congress to
follow it, the grand object of re-
union and restoration of fratcrnal
feeling will be accomplished. AS TO
the Southern people, they will do
their part; they have testified, in the
strongest possible manner, since the
close of the war, their adherence to
the Government and cheerful ol,e-
dience to its Constitution and laws.
This "new plan" of the Post, if
adopted, will speedily restore peace
and harmony to the country, heal all
its wounds, and maA: the Union
cone and inseparable.

A SENSIBLE MAN. N.-We are told at
Enterprise, the other day, that "a ne
gro doctor had located there, bought
real estate, and would engage in the
practice of medicine. He is repre-
sented as man of intelligence and
some cultivation, decorous in his
conduct, and respectful to white peo-
pie. He made mn address on Satur-
day night to his colored friends.
which some of them lacked the good
sense to appreciate. He told them it
was useless to expect equality with
the white race He had travelled
much over the North and Europe,
and nowhere was the negro on an
equality. In the city of New York,
he was not permitted to ride in the
same streetcars with white people.
He told them furthermore, that it
was mistake to believe the North
ern people were any better friends to
the negro race than the Southern
people. The Southern man, he said,
would prove to be their best friend.
This black educated man is native
of Kentucky, and in his boyhood was
iii the family Of one Of the Breckin-
ridges, who assisted and encouraged
him to acquire an education.

THEIR OBJECT. The Louisville

radicals and their designs in the fol-

Their object seems to be to tear
down, and not to bnild up. They ere
fanatics, impractic lie radicals, mad
men. They are r' ming the country
to destruction, and exult with fend-
lsh glce over the ruin they create.
The Government must be wrested
from their hands, or it will soon be
unfit for white men to live in, and
scarcely for the negroes, for whose
advantage all this dcyilish work is
done"

bated, the approaching close of the
great exhibition evidently having the
effect of bringing up those who had
hitherto failed to attend Many Of
the tables, yesterday, bore evidence
of the fact that heavy sales had been
effected, but, in all cases, the stocks
of goods were replenished as far as
possible, only to be again sold down
very materially before the close last
evening. This evening closes the
Fair, and the events of the preceding
two weeks will pass into history,
where they will ever have bright
page III the annals Of our city. The
heroic self-sacritice, the indomitable
perseverance, the minds to conceive,
and the wills to do, Of the women of

DESIGNS OF THE RAD1cA1s.-There
is apparently well-grounded appre-
hension that the dominant party in
Congress are seriously contemplating
some means whereby they can get
control of the Executive Department
of the Government. The rumors
af1oat here all tend to establish the
truth of this statement. There is
reason to believe that the Union
Leagues and other similar organiza-
tions are cognizant of this conspiracy.
The mutterings of the approaching
storm are already audible. Unless
something is promptly done it can
not be evaded much longer. The
