SERIOUS CHARGES ON GENER-
AL LONGSTREET.

The Courier Journal publishes the
following article:
"When it was announced that Gen.
Grant appointed General Iongstreet to
the ONCE of Surveyor of the port Of New
Orleans, we at once concluded that the
President was apprised OF iact tnaS
his a~ppOintee la once been indicted
for smuggling, and therefore thought
him the better qualified to detect others
who might engage in similar practices.
About the year 1855, as we are informed
Longstreet was a Major in the United
States army, and in command of mill
tary post on the American side of the
trict Court of b United States for the
Territory of New Mexico, for The crime
of smuggling. But when the United
states Marshal went to the frontto exe-
cute the process of said court, the gates
were closed against him, and he had to
return without executing it. The Mar
| shall having reported these facts to the
| then Governor of the Territory, he
made application to General Garland,
Who commanded that military district
! to have Longstreet surrendered to the
civil authorities for trial, but as Long
evaded the application of the Governor,
and ordered a court, composed OF his
brother officers found Longstreet guilty,
but the General disapproYed Of the find
ing of the court, and the matter was
settled by his giving a pledge to the
civil officers that there shouts be nc
smuggling on the part of the military,
Hence we infer that Grant, knowing
that Longstreet had some knowledge o
the holes through which offenders
might slip, thought him asuitable hand
! to stop them, and therefore appointed
him to this responsible Office, nOtwith-
standing he had been a Confederate
~oficer.'3

The first known case in which a dip
Iomatic appointment, actually made
bv President Grant, has been declined,
is hat of Mr.. ]. r. Clay, the colored

The Cincinnati Commercid1 fond of
a sensation, advocates the removal of
the national capitol to New York city,
and cites the superior advantages Of
that metropolis in hotels as a promi-
neht inducement for the change. We
move to strike out New York city and
insert Delaware, Ohio, and recommend
the adoption of the proposition as
amended. New York is great in many
things, but with all her greatness, can
not match our sulphur spring, one
swig from which is worth a cycle o.
fusi1 oil and tannin or a whole eterni,
