COMMISSIONER OF INTERNAL REVENUE.
Hen Columbus Delano of Ohio, who wat
Yesterday appointed by President Gran
as Commissioner of Internal Revenue, in
place of Commissioner Rollins (who etires
at his own request, and to whom the
country is indebted for the manner ina
which he has fulfilled the duties of the
office under peculiarly trying circumstances
is native of Shoreham, VT, where he
was born in 1909. He removed to Ohio
IN 1917; was admitted TO the bar in 1881
and became one of the most successful and
prominent lawyers in the State. lie was
a member of the Twenty Congress,
and after several years retirement, was
elected again to the House in 1868, and
has since been a member. His term Of
Office expired yesterday. He is one of the
purest and most upright of our public
men, and a man of great executive and
administrative ability, and possesses just
those qualifications needed for faithful
and efficient administration Of this very
important department of the Government
With President to sustain him in the
discharge of his duties, and to give him
faithful men to carry out the laws, we
may expect to see the revenues Of the
Government greatly strengthened, and the
way, soon made clear for the m lterialS
reduction of our present taxes.

THE Press and Times evades the
ouestion. Neither time nor space
permits a repetition of what we
have already said on the subject
of the various oaths propounded to
voters in Tennessee since January,
1868. To impart information is one
thing. To give understanding is an
other. The Press and Times, how"
ever, may affect not to see that the
oath of 1865 is one which offered
TO every man in the State the
option to vote, and that the
February and March elections
of that year were free to all, but
we do not believe its assertion. 1t
knows perfectly well the difference
between the oaths of 1860 and 1867;
and the pitiful subterfugo OF quot
ing a verbal inaccuracy as answer
to an argument, proves it.
TO use its own phrase, plan
people" will readily comprehend
that the play on the term ''iron-
clad" is merely stuff. If that is all
it can do, we cannot afford to waste
further words on the subject, furth
er than to say in conclusion, that "a
free election" is one in which every
man is allowed to vote or
not to vote as he chooses. This
was the case in 1868. 1t
l. not the case IN 1869. EX-Presi-

RADICAL RAsCALIrY EXPOSED.

We print elsewhere a thorough
exposure Of Radical rascality in
the matter of registration in Lin
coin county. At the election in
February, 1865, on the amendment
to the constitution abolishing
slavery, there were 1,776 votes
polled, and in the subsequent cleo
ton in March for Governor and
members of the Legislature, there
were /, 100 votes polled. The fran
chise law expressly provides that
every one of these voters shall be
registered and a certificate granted
them emitting them to vote. In
order to destroy the evidence of
their right to vote, the poll books
were stolen and perhaps destroyed,
or at least portions of them. When
the offer was made to prove by the
officers holding the election, that
certain parties had voted at one or
both these elections, the registrar
quibbled and refused to register
them. 1t is by this species of
jugglery that more than a thousand
citizens of Lincoln county have
been deprived of a right which
the franchise law confirmed. The
registration business in that county
has been conducted solely in the
interest of the Radical party; and
yet the men who have been depriv-
ed of their rights have seemed pow
erless to redress their wrongs. The
courts would probably now afford
that redress, but that is a very
slow process. 1t lies Of right with
the Governor to correct these griev-
anees, by appointing registrar
who will know no man or party in
the discharge of the duties imposed
upon him by the franchise law.
The people of Lincoln are not the
only ones who have just cause to
complain of the unfairness with
which registrars have executed
the law. In some of the
appointment of registrars by Gov.
Senter, we recognize disposition
on his part TO place men in Office
who will execute the law in its let
ter and spirit. The men who are
entitled to vote under a fair con-
struction Of the law should not be
denied that privilege upon any
pretext whatever. The people OF
Tennessee ask nothing moro OF
Gov. Senter in connection with the
franchise law, than that he will
appoint registrars who will register
every man who comes within its
provisions. Let us have a fair and
honest execution of the law.

GRANT is reported to have said
before his Inauguration that changes
in the offices of the country should
be made only for cause and he is
credited with having said that
where any man had held Office
during the past year and half, it
was presumptive evidence that he
was a johnson man." and init
mating an intention to turn out
all such. During more than the
year and a half which preceded the
retirement of Mr. johnson, he was
unable to remove q man from or to
appoint one TO office, without the
consent Of the Senate, and the pre-
rogative to give or to withhold con-
sent was exercised in the most die
tatorial and INSCRIPTIONS manner,
and to an unlimited extent. No
man who was believed to be un-
friendly to Mr.. Johnson could be
removed; no one who had rested
under suspicion of being his friend
could be confirmed.

GEN. CANBY has gone to work

GEN. CANBY has gone to work to
carry out the Radical programme
in Virginia. He has promulgated
an order requiring all officers Of
the provisional government of that
State, who have heretofore been
elected to the offices which they
now hold, and are ineligible by
reason Of inability to take the test
oath, to Immediately subscribe to
said oath and forward the same TO
military headquarters at Richmond.
The Norfolk FrgiRian remarks:
"Under this sweep the new broom will
vacate all the Offices of the State govern
ment, but we suppose fair interpreta-
ton of it leaves all municipal function
aries, if any there be, who are obnoxious
TO objection under the iron-clad, in their
places. Such as these, however are 'as
scarce as hens teeth and order 81 will
sweep the floor.
The object of the order is to drive
out Of office, if possible, every man
who is not a Radical, and from the
remarks of the Tirginian, we infer
that purpose is likely to be accom-
plished.

SENSATIONS are the order of the
day in Washington. Considerable
interest has been created in the In
terror Department by the alleged
discovery of great frauds having
been perpetrated by claim agent
on the Indian soldiers who served
in the territory west Cf Arkansas.
1t appears that bounty to the
amount of $4,000 was due the
Indian brigade when mustered out
of the service, and it also appears
thatnot more than 100000 has been
paid to the Indians, while the agent
iscredited with receiving the whole
amount.

JOHN Russell YOUNG, the man
aging editor of the New York
Tribune, is trying to make a good
thing out of the exposure of his
efforts to black mail a number of
leading Radicals. He has sued the
New York Sun for 100000 as the
amount that paper damaged him.
He has since sued the Philadelphia
Press and the Philadelphia Bulletin
for cool 100000 in addition. 1t
will perphaps do him good when he
gets even a small portion of these
sums.

THAT SLIPPERY sCHOOLTUND.

The Knoxville Press and Herald
seems disposed to throw doubt on
the reported robbery of Col. vii
cox of large amount of school
fund money at Chattanooga. Says
that paper: What a strange fatal
ity has attached to school money in
Tennessee, ever since that captured
school fund was brought back into
the State T. 1t seems that neither
safes nor vaults can confne it, nor
bolts and bars protect it from the
unseen and unsearchable rogues
who seem TO have been specially
commissioned to gobble it up, either
in small bills or large, as their ne
cessities may require. When once
it goes, too, whittier it goeth no
man can tell" The Press and
Herald adds:
The misfortune of Col Wilcox is a
sad one. 1t brings not only pecuniary
loss to himself but it is no doubt source
of deepest regret to him that the expec-
tatiOns Of teachers, who have waited so
long and yet so anxiOusly, for their CONS
pensation, should be even for a day dis
appointed. A prompt substitution of the
amount Of school money lost by the rob-
berry at Chattanooga, is promised, how
ever, and we hope there will be no ne-
cessity for delay in making it good 1t is
oftentimes a very easy matter for even
the most careful man, after an accident
has befallen him, to look back and dis
cover many ways by which it could have
been avoided. For instance, if Col vii"
cox, when he sold or hypothecated his
ten thousand dollars worth Of bonds in
New York, and reserved simply his ne4
cessary travelling expenses, and depos.
tied the remainder in some bank, he
could have travelled home without risk,
and drawn upon the funds here
Or he might have purchased a
check in New York, brought it with
him in safety, and negotiated it in
Knoxville probably at a small premium
Or he might have forwarded it by ex-
press at trifing cost And even after
reaching Chattanooga in safety, he now
thinks it strange, no doubt, that he did
not deposit his package with the prOprie-
tors of the hotel All such precautions.
also, too often fash upon ones mind
when it is too late to exercise them. Col.
Wilcox has the reputation Of being a
very careful man in his own business,
about his Office, and his gross careless
ness in this matter is matter of much
astonishment to his friends.
1t must be confessed that Col.
Wilcox acted in a very singular
manner at Chattanooga when the
reported robbery was discovered.
He should at least have made an
effort to discover the robbcr.
