How lhe ssPet of the Radicals
was Caught in his FalsehOOd.

Capt. WETMoRE, the Radical pet at Wash
ington, whose recent refusal to deliver up
the books of his Office as Military Claim
Agent for Ohio, by which books alone his
account for large sums OF money received
could be adjusted, has failed of his object.
The books are ordered by the Court to be
given up. We trust there will be search
ing investigation into his accounts.
This WETMoRE is the same scamp that,
on the 18th of September, 1866, wrote to
Ohio, to be used as an electioneering story,
that the Secretary of the Treasury in
structed the Second Auditor of the Treas
ury, not to pay out bounty passed by the
last Congress" and that ''the President does
not intend dollar OF additional bounty
shall be paid Union soldier or his family
if he can help it," all of which, from begin
ming to end, was falsehood got up for the
basest of political purposes. The TACT that
the statement of WETMoRE was false, was
telegraphed from Washington to this city,
by the Secretary of the Treasury, as soon
as his attention could be called to the sub
ject. --.
The man that would thus wilfully and
deliberately state falsehood for the pur-
pose of deception, ought to have his ac-
counts we'll investigated, to the end that it
may be seen that they are correct and no
! false entries made therein.

There are, at this time. connected with
that portion of the editorial corps OF ONO,
who do duty at the bidding of the radical
.Abolitionists, two of these little creatures,
as GREELEY said, whom God, for some in
scrutable purpose, permits to edit major
ity of the Negro Suffrage journals, who,
in vast conceit and lack of brains, are as
alike as the two Dromios in person.
Both got commissions in the army, both
got to be Brevet Brigadier Generals, as did
BAKER, the thief taker, and both became
editors, and labor under the belief that
what they do not know is not worth learn
ing. Taken together, they are the largest
span of asses in the State, and taken sepa-
rately, it is hard to tell (which from 10th
er." One is General Comfy, OF the Jour
nat, the other General LEGGETT, OF the
Courier. The latter says that the late war
s.was cansed by Democrats"-the former
weakly repeats the same charge by inu-
endo. 9a-
An unpublished anecdote of General
JACKSON, yet well authenticated one, is
to the point: During his campaign against
the Creek Indians, an officer of volunteers,
with doubtful reputation for the irtue
so necessary in soldier, made complaint
to the General that his servant Tom, a negro
who had stood by old Hickory through
out the campaign, had been insolent.-
Drawing his tall figure to its full heighth
the General, after the complaint had beer
entered, said: Il will ask Tom if be has
been insolent to you-if he has, will cor
rect him. He will tell me the truth, fol
Tom is brave man, and brave man eoon
He." ea
Tried by this test, this brace OF Brevei
Brigadier Generals must be among the
most cowardly scamps in Christendom, for
considering the little brains they have, they
are the most incorrigible liars that disgrace
the press of Ohio. .....

A Gentle Hint 10 a Scamp of a
Radical.

Some weeks ago special agent of the
Postoffice Department reported to the Post
master-G General that he had detected frauds
which were perpetrated by the Postmaster
at Greensburg, Indiana, and that the Post
master had admitted that his book entries
had been changed, Sc, &c. Upon this
showing, the Postmaster was suspended.
When Congress met, the facts were certified
to the Senate, and new Postmaster was
nominated. The Senate rejected the NOM
ination and under the Tenure-of-office
Law, the old Postmaster is reinstated in
office. The Postmaster-General notified
the reinstated officer of the action of the
Senate, and, as we learn by telegram to
the Cincinnati Enquirer, added the follow
ing gentle hint as postscript:
"You are respectfully requested as a
favor to the Department to use as little of
the money of the Government, and make
as few false entries as possible"
This is very well for the Postmaster
General, and we trust the scamp will take
the hint.

Negroes Not Prosperous in Rich
mOnd Since they GOtIheir Free
dom. -
The Cleveland Leader tRadicaD was I'M
fortunate in publishing in its news col
umns the following, for it is true, and truth
is never fiattering to bad cause:
ga directory recently published in Rich
mond gives in its local history of the city
the singular and significant fact that three
hundred and sixty y-eight houses in the city
are owned by negroes, all of which were
acquired while slavery existed, and no in =
stance has occurred since the termination
OF the war of any, negro purchasing or ae.
quiring the ownership of house" .
If the negroes could amass property in
the midst of slavery, and fail to do sc
after slavery was abolished, it speaks bad
ly for the new friends of the darkey, who
must cheat them out of all they earn, OIL
else their idea of freedom is like that o.
other darkies, that the Government il
bound to support them.

A Radical desiring Union Soldiers
.. Shot.

The Radicals in Congress, desiring to
render the proposed Constitutional Amend
ment in Ohio less odious, recently passed
an act pardoning all soldiers who came to
their homes after LEES surrender.
The brave men who fought through the
war by coming forward and confessing to
desertion by the provisions of this bill can
be pardoned by the Radicals.
But the Radical press generally opposed
the measure, fearing that the soldiers may
not concur in Negro equality, whereby the
Radicals will be the losers by this scheme.
The Philadelphia Press, referring to the
matter, says:
Congress made an unhappy mistake in
absolving the 1866 deserters, and should
war ever again break out the country will
reap the ruinous consequences of the legis-
tion of yesterday. AS our unknown cor
respondent so truthfully says, this paper
has always stood by the soldiers-the men
who not only fought but stayed with their
commands and obeyed orders. We have new
er shown any favor for deserters, and never
will. Their naerited fate is death By muSEet-
ry;;' and if they escape that they have done
WELL"
Soldiers. what do you think of that FROM
a stay-at-home Radical? If the soldiers
do not vote the Radical ticket, the next
step of the Radicals will be to declare
them all deserters and order them to be
shot. Bloody Radicals.

Sick of Puritan Intolerance.

The Germans are beginning to find the
Radical leaders out. They find that Yankee
puritanism, which has got control of the
Radical party everywhere, is entirely too
intolerant in regard to other social customs
than those approved of in New England.
CARL HEINzER, editor of the most ultra Rad
ical paper in the country, the Boston Pho
neer-gives notice that he will no longer
act with the party of SUMNER, STEVENS & Co.
The Pittsburgh Volksbldtt, an influential
Radical daily paper, says that the German
Republicans must form an alliance with
the Democracy, in order to defeat the puri-
tanical spirit which is gradually taking
possession of their party. The German
Radical papers of Iowa declare in the same
spirit, and even CARL SHURz recommends,
in his st. Louis Westliche Post, the German
Radicals to vote for Democratic candidates
for legislative and municipal offices. These
facts show that the Germans intend no
longer to be made the dupes of Radical
demagogues, who have so long used them
for the accomplishment of their selfish
purposes.

boldness has characterized the doings of
