THE IMPERIALIST.

r. Our readers. will remember that
when the above paper was in its
prosperity, we denounced its prin-
ciples, and advocated the arrest and
condemnation of its editors and
publishers. At the same time Dem
ocratic papers persisted in proclaim
ing it as the organ of Radicals and
President Grant.
The following is interesting read
ing for those unscrupulous liars who
have been active in declaring the
Imperialist Republican paper. 1t
is taken from the GALAXY of Novem-
ber:
cat various times offers of money
we're made to the conductors of the
paper; but these offers were rarely
accepted. The existence of the In
perialist was thought to be thorn
in the side of the Republicans, and
the Democratic politicians were,
therefore, anxious to keep it alive.
AS they knew nothing of the real
condition of the paper, except that
it was new venture, they not IRA
tionally supposed that it needed
money, and made frequent and
generous offers of pecuniary assist
ance. ITO a certain extent these
offers were accepted, as grim joke,
to be, at the proper moment, turned
to account to show the people how
extremely honest the politicians
were in heiradvocacy of Democrat
ic institutins." More than one Dem
ocratic States Committee paid
money into the treasury of the I'm
perialist, and more than one pro-
minent politician Of the same party
made free gifts to apaper that need
ed no such assistance; while, upon
the rumor that the paper was about
to be stopped, the "Tammany Ring
offered to pay a weekly subsidy of
one hundred dollars for it's continu-
ance. The latter offer was not ac-
CcpG, SIuCt IL GueA Hetu OScu uCoSi
mined to suspend publication.
"' These offers of money! we are
told, "were accepted as free gifts, the
Imperialist never undertaking for a
moment to change its course. They
were made exclusively by members
of the Democratic party. From first
to last no Republican was ever di-
rectly or indirectly concerned in the
establishment or conduct of the I'm
perialist. The charges sometimes
made that President Grant, Secre-
tary Borie, Senator Sprague, Or the
Grand Army of the Republic had
some connection with the Imperial
ist were wholly fictitious. They
were never made by the paper itself,
but were sheer inventions Oh the
part of Democratic journals. In
one instance, the accredited owner
of leading Democratic newspaper,
which charged Mr.. Borie with hav-
ing advanced funds to support the
Imperialist, had himself given
money for that very purpose. The
Imperialist denied none of these re-
ports, as was part Of its settled po-
licy; but it never originated or au-
thorized them.'

E The Board of Education o

H The Board of Education OF
Cincinnati voted, on last Monday,
to exclude the Bible from the Pub
lie Schools of that city. r..
We predict that when that ques-
ton is referred to the people. and
we doubt not it will be, their YER
dict will be to re-instate the Bible in
the Schools, and also in favor of a
radical reconstruction of the Board
of Education.
This question was tested in Can
ton. o., recently, and the friends OF
the Bible in the Public School,
achieved a brilliant victory.

~A Columbus dispatch Of the

The official returns from Ashta-
bula county were received to-day at
the office Of the Secretary Of State.
1t appears that 3.491 votes were
cast for Orchard A. Porter" for
member of the Board of Public
Works, instead of Richard r. Por-
ter, the Republican nominee. There
were also 3,251 votes in Belmont
county and SO in Clinton county
thus miscast, making in all 6,S01
votes. This egregious carelessness
has, as will be seen, nearly defeated
the Republican nominee. The Ash
tabula committee endcavored, when
too late, to correct the error into
which they had fallen, Richard r.
Porter receiving but 145 votes in
the county.

THE WAY TO SEND MoNEY.-Never
send money in a letter. No prudent
person will ever do so. If you want to
send money get Post office order, or Il
Draft. In either of these ways there
can be no loss.
Post office orders can be readily pro-
cured for any important towns, and
this way of sending money is perfectly
safe and cheap. The following are the
rates charged for money orders:
On orders not exceeding 500 10 cts.
Over 500 and not exceeding $50 l5cts.

AS an evidence of the retrench-
ment policy of the present admins
tration, and the saving made in one
instance, since General Grant came
into power, it is ascertained that
there were about three thousand
employees in the Treasury Depart

the present time the reduction
amounts to about six hundred in the
Treasury alone, which at the aver
age pay Of employees will amount to
seventy thousand dollars per month

The following is the special despatch
to the Herald relative to the matter:
The action of o lieutenant and small
guard of marines at Arlington, yester-
dey, in preventing people from throwing
hov'ers over the graves of the Confede-
rate dead, is the subject of much talk
here, to-day, and the general sentiment
Is condemnatory. It turns out that the
officers of the Grand Army of the Re.
public were not altogether responsible
for what occurred. They merely ar
ranged to have the marines there SO as
to prevent people from making mistakes.
but mistakes were made on the wrong
side. The marines misunderstood what
they were placed there for, and thought
1t was part OF their duty to insult people
who happened to throw flowers on the
graves of the Confederate dead. The
Lieutenant in command, whose name is
given as Shirley, but of which am not
certain, was particularly offensive in his
manner. Seeing q lady throw small
bouquet on one of these graves, this lieu
tenant rushed to the spot, picked up the
flowers, and throwing them on the
ground ut his feet, commenced stamping
on them in such manner as to attract
about him crowd of wondering specta-
tors in very few minutes. Some of the
iio!okers-on, learning the cause of the
ileutenant's rage, commenced to murmur
disapprobation, when the lieutenant
shouted out "D-n You, get away from
here. every one of you, or I'll make you /
Guards, como up here, and disperse this
crowd. The lieutenant accompanied
these words with angry gestures, and
swinging his arms abont as If he intend.
ca 70 pitch generally into the crowd.
HIS guards answered his call, but the
