THE BEAUTIES OF RADICAL IEaIs-
LATTON

The Washington correspondent of the
Cincinnati Enquirer writes under date of
the 18th inst as follows
Another difficulty arising out of the
ienure-of-olhce act has Just been developed
in the Middle District of Tennessee, Nash
vile district The District Attorney re-
signed, to take effect on a certain date. The
Senate, meantime, met, and the President
msde haste to nominate successor in time.
Several were nominated but not con-
frmed.
The nomination of the first successor of
course operated to remove the incumbent,
and the vacancy, therefore, occurred during
the recess, and the Senate adjourned with
out filling it. Under these circumstances,
the Office tenure act declares that such
office shall remain in allegiance, etc, and
that the duties shall de7olve upon the
person who by law performs them, il case
of q vacancy bat the office of District
Attorney is one whose duty is not devolVed
by law Oh any person in case OF vacancy.
The Secretary of the treasury informs
the Attorney General thGt gross and eE-
tensi7e frauds and crimes against the Teve-
nue. laws are being committed IN the Middle
District Of Tennessee, and from Other
sources evidence comes up that the criminal
laws of the United States are being exteu-
sively violated.
The court can do nothing without a prose-
cutting officer, and nobody can prosecute
but District Attorney. General Grant
also informs the Attorney General that the
government officers are vezed By suits in
the State courts, for acts done in the line
o. their duty, who are entitled to have their
ease carried into the United States courts,
but there IL no District Attorney to act Tor
them. The question is now, what shall the
President do? For civil suits he might
make contracts with lawyers. perhaps. to
act for the United States AZ corporation
but the United States Is a SOVEREIGN mower
IL the opinion Of legal men. and can prose-
cute offenders against their laws oalv in
the manner pointed out By law-through
District Attorneys and their deputies.
On the other hand, the tenure.ofofice
act positively declares that anybody who
appoints or accepts an appointment, makes
out, signs, seals, or accepts a commission,
or, in a word, has anything whatever to do |

TERRIBLE AFFRAY-A DTFCUI ~ AT
THE GRAVE Or A DEAD MAN IN WHICH
A MAN IS MoRTALLY WoUNDFD.-We OBJ.
tain the following particulars Of an ARRAY,
which occurred while the grave of Hiram
brennan was being prepared on last Sat
urday, from friend. A man named Ham
iltoh, 1t appears, had an old gradPe against
the Drenuan family, and, hearing Of the
death Of Hiram brennan, proceeded TO his
residence and commenced abusing, in the
most disgusting manner. the deceased aad
his family. Hearing that two of Dreu-
mans sons were of at the place where the
grave was being dug, he proceeded thither
and continued his outrageous conduct in
their presence. Forbearance on the part
Of the Drennan's at last ceased TO be vir-
tue, and, finding that there was no other
way to stop the matter, the two young
Drennan's armed themselves, one with a
club and the other with a rock, and, alter
ordering him away again, one Of theta let
fly the stone, striking Hamilton On the
back Of the head, producing wound which
has proved mortal, Hamilton having died
on last Thursday. The affair Of course
caused considerable excitement in the
neighborhood. We have not heard of the
arrest Of either Of the parties.-Le5anon
