ELLESpALE. Feb. 25.-Unly little over year
ago this place was forest Of pines. Since then,
we have cut utf the pines and let light in; thnt
is VT have built some very neat houses, and laid
ont a town here, a sketch of which, as made by
one of our citizens, may be seen in the Delaware
Atlas. We have now five dwelling houses, and
two more begun, two stores, doing good busi-
ness; blacksmith shop, wheelwright shop, con-
feciionary shop millinery shop, post office, a
daily mail, and daily mail-stage line to Milton.
Through the influence and perseverance Of one
Of our citizens, we have side-trnck made, nnd

Iris believed in Washington that
Attorney General Evarts will re
main in President Grants Cabinet,
if he desires SO to do. 1t is also be
Iieved that General Schotield may
hold his present portfolio. Opinion
seems to centre mainly upon the
Hon. J. Lathrop Motley as the pro
bable Secretary of State. He was
expected in Washington after the
holidays, and as good authority as
Mr.. Sumner has limited that he has
been called there for consultation.
No doubt exists that either the State
Department or the mission to Eng
land is at the disposal of the bril-
liant author and diplomat.

a large company of fools and

HORACE GREELEY signalized his
single term in Congress dozen
years ago, by = vigorous war against
the mileage system and franking
privilege of members Of Congress,
and through his paper, the Trib"nc,
lac still fights on.
Mr.. Greeley is right in this, if IN
nothing else We advocate the
curtailment Of every privilege Of a
member Of Congress except that of
voting the will Of his constituency,
and the reduction Of the pay TO
board wages. These reforms, with
the abolition Of all Committees, cX-
cept the Committee of the Whole
would save the taxpayers several
hundred millions annually. Con
gressional Committees are the I'D

the means by which corruption
wins more than honesty. Let them
be suppressed, and each individual

CHANTS RETREAT.

The New York Ti6uac Of the
Both ult. says:
The newspaper correspondents have
been vexing their ingenious brains over
the problem of how Gen. Grant, with his
known relations TO the President, who
tried to use Cabinet officers to prove him
untruthful, could pay the visit OF ceres
mOny at the White House which Wash
ington etiquette requires of all army ofi~
GERS in the capital on New Years day
\ Geographic dispatch announces that
the President elect is to spend the lst of
january in Philadelphia, Perhaps the
average Washington mind may be equal
to the task of putting this and that
together
The Philadelphia Post, a Radical
organ, with more candor than the
TjJUmc, frankly admits that Gen.
Grant quits Washington for the
purpose Of avoiding the customary
visit which all officers of the army,
present at the seat Of government,
pay to the President of the United
States, on the first day of the year.
The General was placed in very
awkward position, but his "retreat"
is any thing but creditable TO him.
As he is still an officer of the army
Of the United States, public dis
courtesy TO its COMMANDMENT Chief,
certainly, is not Of good example.
The relation Of the President to the
army, as its supreme commander
represents the subordiuation Of the
military TO the civil authority.
There has been only too much dis
position shown to disregard it.

ONE of the lodges rcsorted to by
the Radicals to get rid Of Democrat
lie Judges already on the Supreme
bench, is 10 retire them after they
reach certain age. Senator vii
son, of Massachusetts, has intro
duced bill proposing to retire all
Of the present Judges who may
have attained to The age of 20, ON
full pay Justices Nelson and
Grier would probably retire, and as
the law stands no vacancies would
exist, the number of justices being
limited to SIN. Justice Grier is II
years. and Justice Nelson is past 80.
These are certainly two Of the chief
men upon the bench, but they hap
pen to be conservative, and the
proposition is deemed a very nice
one to get rid Of them. Should this
fall there is a pending bill to in
crease the number of Judges, so as
to overawe all conservative tendon
cies. Even this is better than the
Ian resOrted TO when Mr.. Lincoln
FIRST elected, viz: the abolition
chislass, in order 10 get rid of

etrated until there is AZ miles of track mostly
laid with ironl under the ground. The coal IS,
beyond question, inexhaustible. 1t is a good
crate coal; and for making iron, burning In

SOME ofthe Radicals have been
abusing Postmaster General Ran
dali pretty romdly for a contract
made with S. J. Poston for carry
ing the mails in Arizona, at a very
heavy compensation 1t appears
that this contract was made by Mr..
Randall's predecessor, Gov. Denni-
son, for $4,000 per annm. The
length of the route was subsequent
Iy extended, and s25, 600 additional
was allowed. Fines to the extent
Of S25, 900 were assessed upon the
contractor for non delivery Of the
mails, but upon satisfactory proof
being made to the Postmaster Con
eral that the delay was not the fault
of the contractor, but the result Of
Indian troubles in the Territory,
the fines were remittcd We pre-
sumo that nothing further will be
said about the matter since GOV.
Dennison made the contract.

WASHINGTON reports say the

cred almost certain, will be appoin
ted Minister to France or Italy. 1t
has been known for some time past
if his health would not allow him
TO take 4 Cabinet position, the
Illinois Representative desired to
90 as Minister TO one Of the leading
governmentsof Europe. 1t is well
understood that he would like to
represent the United States at the
Tuileries. Gen. John c. Fremont
is said to be DESTROYS Of that ap-
pointment. He has many strong
friends, but it is doubtful if they
can overcome the prejudice which
all who have belonged to the regu-
lar army have against that distin-
guished gentleman.
