TnE Washington Chronicle denies, rs
if by authority, that General Grant re-
pudiated the statement of his position
made at length in that paper, and main
tains that he is a radical Republican.
There is no doubt of it, but radical
Republican" differs considerably from
"Radical" without the Republican"
The latter is the chosen name Of those
who advocate impeachment, conisca-
ton, Acknowledgement, and the policy
of relentless vengeance towards the
South. The Republican party has not
Endorsed these measures. General Grant
has never said a word in their favor,
and his conduct and spirit are wholly
against them. He is not a Radical
in the common and obnoxious sense OF
the word, though there is no doubt that
he is radically Republican. He is also
radically sensible.

A SINGULAR CAsE.-There was n sim
gular case Of disease in the County
hospital, which ought to be placed on
record. A man named A. T. Powers,
about IS years of age, was admitted
there GU the 9th instant, while suffering
apparently from an attack Of infiamma-
tory rheumatism. During the last three
wears he had several attacks OF that
disease. In the present instance the
disease was frightfully painful, and the
bones of the patient seemed to be TOO
sore to admit Of the slightest touch.
Il Welded, however to the treatment In
the course Of o week, and the intiama-
ton, except in the right leg, subsidized:
There the swelling increased daily, n
when incisions were made below tue
knee there was q free discharge Of pus.
Incisions were made also above the
knee, which were attended by o similar
discharge. An examination showed
that the ~periosteum near the head OF
the femor, or thigh bone, and along the
entire length of the tibia, or large bone
of the leg, was entirely destroyed. The
discharge from the incisions in the leg
continued to increase, and amputation
appeared to be the only means to arrest
the spread Of the disease and save the
patients life. On Wednesday last the
County Physician, DR.. Wixom, assisted
by DR.. Getchus, performed the operation
about six inches below the joint Of the
thigh. At the point Of amputation, and
an inch below it, the periosteum and
bones were sound, but the marrow was
diseased. After the am~putation q Sec
ton was cut out Of the leg below the
knee, and flesh, muscle, bones and mar
row were found to be in a state OF
DECOMPOSITION. The knee joint was in
a similar condition, and the tibial
artery, from the knee to the ankle, was
filed with c%oagulated blood. The ten
dency of the bone structure of the sys-
tenn to decomposition appeared to be
general until it was arrested by consti-
tut;onal treatment. The name given
to the disease is necrosis. The patient
appeared to be doing well, and there
was slight hopes that he might recover,
but he died at n o'clock p. NJ.

LINCOLN CoUyTY.-Not may days
since VIC received q letter from a young
friend, written at Hike, the county seat
of Lincoln, in Pahranagat Valley, and
as some of its contents are of general
interest, we give the following extract;
AT Belmont just now, | suppose you are
shiyering in ~overcoats. Here l am
writing with doors all open and coats
hanging on a nail. The climate OF
Pahranagat Valley is the most pleasant
of any portion of the State that have
y~isited-the evenings just cold enough
too sleep pleasantly, and the days plenty
for comfort. In fact, give a little
more society lin the young lady hne'
you know), and any man could be con-
tented to stay here for life. Tho other
day, in taking a ride down tho valley
/ saw several regular old Illinois corn
cribs full of corn. II was good for sore
eyes-to see the golden ears; and the
Bloomington boy, who had plowed the
ground and bowed the corn" said the
crop was at least sixty bushels to the
acre.-Sarer Bend Reporter.

by the brilliancy of its atmosphere, its

thoroughly French and as un-English

The Peabody Educational Fund.

DR.. b. Sears, general agent Of the
Peabody Educational Fund, has
issued Il circular giving a somewhat
detailed statement, i'll which the
trustees Of the fund propose to apply
the charity committed to their
charge. He says the direct aim Of
the agent will be to encourage and
aid common schools in the South;
that the schools established are to be
supported and superintendent by
Southern people themselves. Apart
from this leading object the founding
and maintenance Of schools will not
come within his plan. Usual apprO-
priationS, in moderate amounts, Will
be made when, the schools are
languiShing or liable to be suspend
ed for want of means orSupport.
Similar aid, if necessary, will be Civ
en- i'll places unSupplied with schools,
Whenever citizens shall introduce
them and undertake their support.
All such aid is to be regarded as
temporary.
In selecting schools to be be aided,
or places to be supplied with them,
those are to be preferred in which
the deStitution Is greatest and the
number to be benefited he largest.
The normal schools, or schools
having normal departments, will
receive particular attention.

IMPORTANT LEGAL DECISION
In the Supreme Court Of New York,
Mr.. Justice Sutherland has decided
an important question between cur
rency and geld. The issue turned
on an agreement made to pay GER
tain sum at a time when gold was
the ruling currency. The sum was
rendered, but in legal tenders hence
the litigation. Mr. Justice Suthrr-
land holds that an agreement to pay
in gold cannot be legally enforced;
though, treating gold as commOdi-
ty, a contract for its purchase or sale
is perfectly safe and proper. lie de
clares that the result of the Legal
Tender act is that gold has practical
~ ceased to be currency, and become
exclusively commodity. The deci-
sion appears to be identical III prin-
ciple with one recently delivered by
the Supreme Court of Massachusetts,
by which, upon a contract for the
payment of Il specified sum in gold,
Il tender of the amount i'll grecnbacks
was held good.
