The following is an appropriate re-
buke, politely administered by the Army
and Nary Journal, paper of decidedly
Radical partiality:
"The temporary transfer of General
Grants headquarters to the War Bu-
reau will, we hope, be marked also by
an introduction into the latter office of
the urbanity and courtesy which have
been so long wanting to it. The distinc-
tion between the Headquarters of the
Army and the War Office in the matter
of professional courtesy extended to
gentlemen in the service has always
been painfully apparent. In the Tor
mer, an officer summoned on business,
or making inquiries in the line OF his
duty, has always been treated as gem
tlsman. In the War Bureau, he has for
many wears had no assurance that he
wouid be SO treated. Whatever his mer-
its. his record, his age, his length of ser
vice. be could only be doubtful, IN seek
ing interviews with some of the officials
engaged in department dnty, whether
he would not be rudely rebutfed. The
'iusolence of office is a phrase as old as
Shakespeare, and an experience as Old as
the first government. 1t has been thor
oughly illustrated in Washington to the
grief, shame and anger of many thor
ough soldiers and worthy gentlemen IN
both services for many years. Prompt
ness and courtesy in dealing with Off
GERS have been the rule, however, at
General Grants headquarters, and we
hope this innovation will How be ex-
tended to the War Office, and thence to
all the Others

Petroleum For Fuel.

A successful experiment was made
last week on the Ohio river with pc
troleum as a substitute for coal in nayi-
CATION. The Cincinnati Gazette says OF
the new method of raising steam: "The
advantages of this arrangement are so
obvious that it seems almost superfuous
to speak of them, yet we cannot resist
pointing out few Of them. First, we
have the economy of the fuel itself,
twenty dollars worth of petroleum be-
ing equal to fifty dollars worth Of coal.
Then, there is the economy of weight
and space, which is as one to ten. In
addition to this, we have the saving OF
wages Of firemen and coal beavers, the
saving of time in taking the fuel on
board, and above all the perfect control
of the engineer over the fire, aud CON-
plete absence of danger from sparks.
The explosive qualities of petroleum
have hitherto been the great bugbear
by which our enterprising steamboat
builders and machinists have been
scared off. We are not at all surprised
at this, for steam itself had to struggle
hard ere it could assert its supremacy
over every other power in use, and We
feel satisfied that coal will give way tc
petroleum asthe tow path gave way te
the railway" .- RI.

A volume could not more fully expose
the pretensions of the braggart Pope,
than the following briefparagraph from
a late issue of the Boston Post:
General Pope is 4 funny man. All
who remember his Falstatfian report
about the number of his prisoners, his
announcement that his headquarters
were in the saddle, his demoralized re-
treat toward Washington, his army
without any head and he seeking quar-
ters at the Capital, while steam was up
OH the. Potomac TO convey the govern
ment from the District in case the enemy
follC wed the sagacious General too close
for its safety, will not wonder that
President Lincoln thought Pope had
more wind than efficiency. His pre-
tcntious letter to General Grant illus
trates his conceit and weakness. lie
recommends the banishment of those
who differ from him in opinion and eN-
press the difference, and prescribed all
newspapers that oppose his views, and
then announce his anxiety to secure
freedom of speech and the liberty OF the
press. He declares the only safety for
reorganization i'll the South is thorough
free discussion, and then recommends
oStracising all who oppose the Radical
plan. and proscribes all papers that do
not advocate it. He says this course is
necessary to secure the South to the Re-
publican party, and then proceeds to
demonstrate the certainty that the Re-
publicaus will triumph in all these
States without any coercive measures.
Pope, YOU are an Ass.

Some weeks ago specialagent Of the
Postoffice Department reported TO the
Postmaster General that he had detected
frauds perpetrated by the Postmaster at
Greensburg, Indiana, and that the Post
master had admitted that his book en-
tries had been changed, &c. Upon this
showing the Postmaster was suspended.
When Congress met the facts were GER
titled to the Senate, and new Postmas-
ter nominated The Senate rejected the
nomination, and under the tenure OF
office law the old Postmaster is reinstat-

THE WHEAT CRoP.-We stated some
time since that the wheat crop of this
year, as indicated by the receipts at the
mills of this city, was little more than n
fifth of the ordinary crop before the war.
This We believe is true of tue crops of
Virginia east OF the Blue Ridge; and it
was intended by the writer to refer on
ly to that in this estimate. The crop in
the valley of Virginia is one of the
finest ever produced there. 1t is be-
lieved to he equal in quantity to any
ever harvested, and the quality is ex-
cellent. Much of this crop, if not the
larger part of it, is going to Baltimore.
This is somewhat surprising. The best
wheat produced in the State we regret
to see leaving it. The farmers, We sup
pose, know their interests, and it is fair
to presume that the millers also know
theirs.-Richmoad Dispatch. i;,S w. =, i

LAWYERS have q rich harvest opening
in the way of suits by the old banks
against delinquents and their securi-
ties. The President and directors ofthe
Farmers Bank of Virginia made deed
some months ago for the benefit of their
creditors. anG the book of the mother
bank and branches have passed into the
hands of counsel for collection. Old
accounts that have been lying with pro-
tests seem suddenly TO be shaking"
and re-inyested with elements of vi
tality.
As we remarked, suits are being enter
ed for principal and interest, and many
an ''old soldier" who was protested and
laid aside, has acquired vigor by the
discovery of an endorser who may be
made 10 pay. Within the last four
weeks bank notes Of the "Farmers" is
sue have risen in the market. AS much
as sl5, 600 have been offered by counsel
of creditors to counsel ofbenefciaries of
the trust deed in this place for payment
of old scores, but We believe in every
case counsel has refused to take the old
notes-which have been bought up-as
an offset for their face against the debts
due the bank.-FredericksbaTg Herald.
