The so-caled slew order" issued by Gen. Grant
during the war, to prevent Jews trading with the
rebels, brought him great deal of abuse during
the late campaign, and secured him the enmty and
opposition of nearly the entire body of voting Is
raelites. 1t was taken attack on the Jews as
a people; and as General Grant never publicly re-
tracted Its terms explained its language though
hundreds of letteFslwere written to him on the SUD-
iect, he was held TO be still dangerous enemy Of
the whole race. The Jewish organ, the Israelite,
publishes a correspondence on the subject, which
took place some time ago, and in which there sp-
pears letter from Gen. Grant, explanatory of the
issuing Of the order and his present feelings regard
ing it. Gen. Grant saves himself and his friends
all trouble in the way Of defending the snt-Jew p
order, by st emphatically remarking II do not
pretend to sustain the ORDER He explains the cir
eumstances of its appearance and says it was Issued
without thinking of the Jew sect or race, de-
clares that ne has prejudice against any sect or
race and shows that the order in question was writ
ten without reflection, at time when he was in
eensed Oy q reprimand received from Washington
for permitting acts which Jews within his lines
were engaged in Gen. Grants letter is frank and
manly confession Of mistake or hasty error, and
must be satisfactory TO his friends and his enemies
Of the Hebrew race.

The Benninghof Robbery.
From the Titusville Herald, August

AOih eiiS 1Ituos AlCAt1iNt <AuSttSlo
We are able to add few additional
particulars to what has been already pub
lished in our columns in relation to the
Benninghof' case The ringleaders arc
still at large, and only few ofthe access
ories are as yet in custody. We believe
not a cent of the money has been recov-
cred. But no expense has been spared
by the Benninghotf family to ferret out
the rascals and bring them to justice.
We should probably speak within limits
to say that s15, 900 would not cover the
bills. For over six months Mr. Joseph
Benninghof' has been in pursuit of this
single object, assisted by the most ac-
complished detectives that magnificent
reward could command. 1t has already
transpired that Jim Saeger was the prin-
cipal actor i'll the affair, and is supposed
to have the lions share of the money.
His father gave the name to Saegertown
and LETT Jim with 100000 to commence
business with. Saegar kept large dry
goods store in Meadyille for several years
on very large scale, and one Of our lead
ing townsmen was clerk ofhis. What
ever wrecked his fortune, it is certain
that his habits have been 'fast" of late
Lewis Welde, one of the suspected con-
federatcs, also halls from Saegertown,
was farmer, and i'll involved circumstan-
ces 4 few months since. Welde kept il
hotel i'll Saegertown. He was a crony
of Saeger'S, and when arrested had set
tied in Ohio, in the ownership of a hotel,
distillery, &c. Welde was bailed OIL
$40, 200 bond, is now at large.
We had the privileges of the Jail at
Franklin, and talk with the three other
prisoners, Miller, Shoppart and Geyer
They are all about thirty years old. Gey-
er has not been in this country long, and
was Benninghof's hired man, and one
who was in the house at the time of the
robbery. To all interrogatorics he says,
"No speak English" Miller is slim,
pale chap, with dissipatcd look. He
has been Il constable for years at Sager-
town, and enjoyed the reputation of be-
ing a 'rough." That Miller was never
before magistrate for breach of the
laws is an item in his favor, and having
neither fed nor concealed himself, it is
argued that his guilt is rather that of All
accessory than a principal, more of knowl-
edge than fact. The case of Shoppart
wears less favorable aspect. lie told
us he was cooper by trade, and follow
ed that occupation at Sagertown. lie
was properly secretive about his own
matters. He has already divulged too
much for his own good, but the evidence
rather inculpates him as an accessory.
The Judge fixed the bail of Sheppard
at $40, 900, that of Alillar at $500, and
that of Geyer at $1,000. The latter only
could obtain acceptable sureties, and the
two former were remanded to fail
