~ Gen. GRANT has as q member
of his staff a Colonel PARKER, chief OF
the Seneca tribe of Indians. The Col
onel has been the innocent cause OF
great excitement in the fashionable cir
cles of Washington. He was to have
been married a few days since, but
when the time arrived for the wedding
ceremony, the Colonel was not to be
found. A correspondent of the Gin
cinnati Gazette furnishes the following
facts in the case:
Careful inquiry into the facts rela-
tive to the mysterious disappearance of
Col. E. S. Parker, the Indian chief on
Gen. Grants staff, shows that the story
has been told by some papers in the
most extravagant and sensational man.
ner. He was to have been married
Tuesday morning, and large number
of civil and military officials, and
prominent citizens, had been invited.
The tale that great crowds of invited
guests were present at the church at
the appointed time; that Gen. Grant
was there in full uniform, accompanied
by his staff; that he and they were as
much in the dark as any body else, is
all pure fiction. Col. Parker's disap-
pearance was known to his associates
on the Staff Sunday morning, and
some search was made for him that
day. When Monday morning came,
the fact that he was missing was COM
municated to General Grant, and soon
thereafter to the expectant bride and
her family. Diligent search was in
stituted at once for Col. Parker, and
kept up all day and evening, but with
out finding the least trace of him. On
the following morning. before the time
set for the wedding, the more intimate

Presidential Playfulness.

A few weeks ago Gen. Hancock
was sent to relieve Gen. Mower at
New Orleans. Without waiting to
become acquainted with the nature
of his new duties, or with the charac
ter and standing of the people of.his
district the new Commander proceed
cd to dismiss from Office the majority
of those just appointed by his prede-
cessor, and filed their places with
men of Democratic, that is, rebel
antecedents. He issued n carefully
prepared series of dissertations on
the Constitution and cognate sub
jccts, which, although not military
orders, according to the Marlbo
rough, wellington or Jackson stand
ard, nevertheless answered the ad,
mirable purpose of supplying our
college students with suitable matter
for declamations.
As Gen. Uancock's electioneering
documents, which he calls orders.
were of course submitted to John
son and other party leaders before
ne left Washington, it is refreshingIy
cool in the Acting President to ask
Congress 20 indorse the platform of
the Democratic candidate for the
Presidency.
Congress commended Gen. Sheri-
dan for pursuing certain policy,
now Johnson asks Congress to com
mend Hancock for pursuing the OPP
posite policy. Our dear little John
