A .Littlc Storyo About Grant.

A correspondent furnishes us with the
following incident illustrating one of the
leading traits in the character of our fu-
ture President.
During the Petersburg campaign of
1865 several privates were engaged in
unloading barrels of salt horse from a
transport at City Point, and were in
charge Of Lieutenant of New York
regiment who took every occasion to
show his authority. To one of his abu-
sive remarks one of the privates made
reply. whereupon the lieutenant admin
istrated severe kicks to the offender, who
offered no resistance but continued on
with bis work A short thick set man
wearing a slouched hat and rather
seedy officers coat, who had been standing
by Tor some time hereupon threw off his
coat and proceeded to help unload the
transport After the task was accom-
pllshed the officer donned his coat and
asked the lieutenant in very civil terms
his name and regiment.
Lieutenant of the -- New
York volunteers: By what authority
do you dare to ask such question.
Report yourself Immediately to your
Colonel nnder arrest 10y order of Gen.
Grant, for cruelty to your men and re.
member that abuse Of privates. by off
GERS is not tolerated by the present com
mander of this army replied the thick
set officer lighting . cigar and walking
slowly away.

We learn from the Rolla (Mo) Er-
press that the unterri6ed Democracy of
Phelps county, Mo-, have had meeting
pursuant to "orders from the State Cen
trail Committee and passed thrilling
resolutions among which was the follow
ing:
Resozced, That while we recognize in
the Hon. Petroleum V. Nasty the true
Democrat and fearless patriot, and while
we acknowledge his good intentions, we
would respectfully request him to discon-
tinue writing letters in defense of the
Democratic party, as we suspect that
some of his efforts are calculated to do
more harm than good in some locations.
This is quite as good as the statement
we have seenin some Of our more squeam-
ish Democratic cotemporaries, that
'Brick Pomeroy, of the La Crosse DEM
ocrat, is paid by the Republicans for his
indecent and disgusting way Of advocat-
ing the doctrines Of the Copperhead
party.

The Mute Detective.

"No dogs allowed sir said the porter
to gay assemblage, as young man aud
his dog appeared at the entrance.
''Very WE'LL" said the young man
stay about here Prince, till 1 come
back |"
And he rejoined the crowd within.
By and by the young man wished to
refer to his watch, when behold the
chain had been snapped in two and the
valuable time piece was gone, He con
sidered moment and then . sudden
thought passed through his mind. So
stepping out he whispered the fact to
the porter, and gained permission to take
his dog in for minute or two
''Look here Prince said ne you
knowing dog, my watch is stolen and
he showed him the empty pocket book
and the cut chain ''Do you understand
old tellow2 In there sir is the thief you
find it my good doggie and I'll give you
a famous treat You understand dc
you?''
Prince wagged his tail and gave his
master knowing and cute look, and
the two stole quietly into the place.
Quietly the dumb detective glided around
among the people smelling at this one S
coat and that ones chain until at last he
set his teeth firmly into the coat skirt of a
genteel looking man, and could not be
shaken off
The young man quietly made known the
case to the bystanders, who had gathered
around him and the thief pocket duly
searched. Six other watches were found
upon him which he had gathered up du-
ring the morning, and which the rightful
owners were very glad to get their hands
on
Prince selected out his masters proper
ty in a twinking, as that was all he
cared for, and gave it to him joyfully. 1t
would have taken very keen policeman
to haze done the work SO neatly and
quickly and all agreed that he merited
as good dinner as dog could have.
A good beef bone and a bowl of bread and
milk however, satisfied his wants, and
then he was just as ready to do the
same work oyer again.

payment of royalty of 50 per tun on all ore
extracted after the tunnel strikes the lode,
which would insure the Company an income
it is believed, of $2,O00,0O0 per year. the whole
of which is pledged to the payment of the
Government bonds loaned to aid the company
1t is expected that the tunnel would be COM
peted within four years, and that the S5,OOO,OOO
loaned would be repaid from the profits OF the
tunnel within three years thereafter. MIR. Sutro
has prosecuted his undertaking with an energy
worthy the grandeur and importance which
must attach to it should it succeed. Beside the
hearty cooperation of the Legislature and
people of Nevada, and of the mining compa-
nes interested, and of the Committee of the
House on Mines and Mining, to whom the
subject was referred, and of the press
of the Pacific States and the min
ing interests, his project is indOrsed
by such distinguished experts as Prof. Bowen of
Harvard Baron Won Beust. Chief of the Mining
Department of Saxony Bernhard Won Gotta,
Professor of Mining and Geology at Freiburg
julius Weissbach, Royal Saxonian Mining Coun-
cilor and Professor; DR.. Won Dechen, Chief of
the Mining Department and Privy Councillor
of Prussia; II. Koch, Royal Prussian Chief
Mining Councillor Bruno Kerl, Professor at
the Royal Mining School of Berlin Michel
Chevalier, the French Economist and Senator I;
A. Daubr6e, Inspector of the Mines OF
France and many others of like eminence and
special familiarity with the subject The con-
struction of single tunnel like that proposed
would demonstrate to practical miners and
capitalists the utility of such enterprises wher-
ever operations have been prosecuted on fissure
veins to depth that renders the cost equal to
the income, and would thus lead to the
prosecution of other similar enterprises
by private capital. The case is unique
and peculiar one. The consequences OF with
holding the aid will be the speedy destruction
and loss of the private capital now invested
in mines to five times the value of the aid
sought while the consequences of granting the
aid will probably be to add very heavily to
our annual product of gold and silver, upon
which We rely in some measure for the dis
charge of the National Debt. The prospect that
the Government will be speedily repaid the
amount advanced seems to be more immediate
than in the case of any similar aid it has ever
given. The only question, therefore, seems to
be, not whether the aid should be extended
but on what terms. With every allowance for
the energy with which NJ. Sutro has prosecuted
the work, in the hope of enlsting private caDi-
tai in the enterprise, it would seem reasonable
that, if the Government furnish the entire
means of bringing it to a successful cOnclu-
sion, and sustain, as it must, all the risk OF
the operation, it should be paid not merely the
principal and interest of the amount advanced,
but perpetual royalty on the proceeds of the
operation of the tunnel, which might wisely be
devoted to the endowment of schools of min
ing or other similar purpose, or to the pay
ment of the National Debt.
New-York tribune., 1868-07-02

If any of the delegates to the Democratic
Convention were present at the Republican
mass meeting last night at Cooper Institute,
they must have been impressed with the
earnestness of the Republican party of our city.
1t is rare that we have such a meeting as that,
addressed by so good speakers and sound Re
publicans as Senator Wilson of Mass. and Con-
gresham Van Wyck of NewIOrk. We hope
our Republican friends will keep the ball rolling
until the November election is over. Work!
work! work! should be the watchwOrd, and
victory will be the result.
New-York tribune., 1868-07-02

The refusal of Congress to pay certain Wash
ington newspapers for publishing postal-route
advertisements has taught the journalists of
the capital good lesson, though we have no
confidence that they will profit by it. The adj
vertisements, of course, were not ordered,- and
were of no use in Washington paper, where
they were pretty certain not to meet the eyes
of the persons for whom they were intended;
but the editors printed them without authority
and hoped to wheedle Congress into voting
them pay for doing so. This system of govern
ment dry-nursing has always been the bane of
Washington journalism, and until it is abol-
ished we shall have no good newspapers in that
city. A paper which cannot earn a support by
its own merit has no business to 1--we. But
