Grant on Retrenchment.

In August, 1867, Grant was appointed
Secretary of War ad interim Nov,
Grant" said Washburn, this is the
time to display your craftsmanship and
show your fitness for the Presidency
Do something we can call retrenchment
Grant looked around, and was unable to
discover who was doing the stealing. But
he must do something. So he dismissed
lot of paymasters clerks who were
busily engaged in pOying soldiers boun,
ties. Immediately it was telegrapAed all
over the country that Grant had adopted
a system of retrenchment that would
save to the government five million dol
lars per annum.
Congress met in November and ap-
pointed a committee to inquire into the
cause of the delay in the payment OF sol.
diers' bounties. The committee reported
that it was ION account Of . lack OF
clerical force in the pay department
SO Grants sretrencbment was only tam.
porary suspension ofpayment ofsoldlers
bouuties. Why didn't the financial bril-
liant (2) withhold his own pay for few
months aud call that retrehchment.
He could have endured the delay much
better than the poor private soldiers, and
the widows and orphans Of their fallen
comrades. Illinois Regist0.

The Military Despotism.

If we are to believe the Radicals, there
is no government so desirable as the mil
tary despotism at the South. Life, lib
erty, and the pursuit of happiness were
never enjoyed, in that section, to so full
an extent, as since the civil govern ents
were overthrown and those of the
sword, musket and artillery established
in their places. AS one evidence OF the
military over the civil power, we copy the
following from an Atlanta paper
Last Sunday, negro shot and
killed little white girl, nine years old,
in cold blood, at Cotieeville, Mississippi,
because the child said something to Of
fend one of his children. The fend was
arrested.
In the same paper we find the follow
ing:
0Tbe Macon Telegraph, Of the 9th,
says: We have information that Judge
John T. Clark, of Pataula Circuit has
been deposed from office by the military
commander of the district. The reasons
have not trsnspired. The court in Ran
dolph has been suspended in conse'
quence. -,
The courts exist only by the will OF
the military commander. No sentence
of the law can be executed if he inter
poses an objection. The bayonet is su'
preme. What lovely state of things the
Radicals have inaugurated And yet
they have the impudence to declare in
their platform that they sympathize with
all people who are struggling for their
rights What brazen hypocrisy. albany

ThurloW Weed Explains.

The New York Commercial contains
a card from the editor, Thurlow Weed,
with reference to his part in the alleged
attempt to corrupt Senator'S. The fol-
lowing is an extract:
In explanation of the propositions
made to myself, l have just this to say !:
Senator Pomeroy either intended to
dispose of three votes, including his own,
or he was. willing that his friends should
use his name to make money or, as
some believe, there was a conspiracy
between Butler and Pomeroy to impli'
cate the President, thus obtaining new
material for impeachment. ~
My reasons for this belief are that,
several months since, Mr.. Leggett, an
intimate friend of Senator Pomeroy,
wanted the appointment of Postmaster at
Leavenworth, Kansas He was sup
ported by Pomeroy, who wrote letter,
which was shown to the Postmaster
General, promising his (Pomeroy' y vote
for Presidential confirmation and his In
huence against impeachment The Post
master General was furnished with copy
of Senator Poheroy's letter (copled
from the original in his possession), },
and Leggett received postal agency.
Some few weeks ago Leggett appears
before Colonel Cooper with letter from
Senator Pomeroy, saying that he would
carry outin good faith an arrangement"
made with Mr.. Gaylord, who is Pome-
roy's brother-in-law; wbereupon Leg
gett and Gaylord undertake to obtain the
votes of Senators Pomeroy, Nye aud
Tiptoh. / did not believe that Senators
Nye aud Upton had authorized this
arrangement" nor did l believe that
either Of them would vote against the
conviction of the President. Bat | did
and do believe that Senator Pomeroy
baited the hooks with which his friend
Leggett, aud bis brother-in-law, Gay
lord. fished. Whether they caught any.
thing or not, / sm unable to say.
Nothing, certainly, from me or with my
consent. THuRIow WEED.

A Would-be Poisoner.
OF Nj 4 MI p HI / y

We have heard oftoiling sons resorting
to many crooks aud turns to secure EN-
ployment, but il is rare That one Of them
gets so desperate as to attempt the ever
lasting removal of fellow-cresture, in
order to fill his situation in business and
enjoy his wages. Such case is reported
to have come to light in this city, yester
day. 1t seems that man named Caspar
Render has long fancied the position OF
the fireman Whose name we have not
learned) at the Beargrass Distillery, on
East Main street. So intense was his
anxiety to supercede the fireman that he
hung around the distillery for many days,
seeming to anticipate that the coveted
place would be vacated; but be vainly
laid this aattering JUNCTION to his soul
the old fireman continued to wood up
and keep in the graces of his employers.
Rehder's itch for something to do grew
worse and worse, until last Wednesday
(instigated, as report goes, by woman
whom he claimed to be his wife, he
adopted plan to get the envied fireman
out of the way by poison. With this view
he either bought or caused to be made
PIE, beHSOutu WIN eOuc ucduiJ pO"uOlot
and, having previously learned of the
fireman fondness for this kind ofdessert,
presented it to his victim at dinner-time.
1t was accepted, but the fireman had
eaten so freely n the good wife's cookery
that his appetite refused the alien pie,
and he laid it aside for supper. AT the
evening meal he did not feel like trying
the pie, so he threw it to his dog. The
brute swallowed it with avidity, but in a
few minutes he was as dead as herring.
The fireman at once comprehended the
evil star that had threatened him, and
realized how narrowly he had escaped
sudden and fearful death. He immedi-
ately gave the alarm, and diligent search
was made for Render, but he eluded the
pursuit until yesterday afternoon, when
Policeman Gregory arrested him at "the
woman's" house, near the distillery, on
the Point. He was committed to Jail,
and will be arraigned before Judge
Craig to day. The case may present
other interesting particulars. Louisville
