and confidence OF the public no administration
can have any vitality.
The Boston Advertiser, Summers organ
yelps in chorus, thus
Many of the appointments which the Presi-
dent made by advice were not less fortunate.
These were crowded by sheer physical force
through the opening which Mr.. Washburne
left. They were for the most part OF politi-
clans with local reputation, endorsed by exc
and gifted with an infinite capacity for ding
donging" their claims, as Senator Trumbull
disparagingly called it, into the ears OF the un-
happy officer who had to answer theIr dem ands

whoever had been President, while the present
pernicious system is in force. But it is large

The fact has become patent that the Repub

cursed our land During the war it's leaders
fell upon the rational treasury and the public
credit like SO many ravenous wolves. Their
jobs a4d robberies in the way Of army
contracts. in the sale Of rotten old hulks
for transports, in the building of new
war vessels that proved shells or abor-
tions, and in everything connected with sup
plies, including PROVISIONS, clothing, forage,
hospital stores, and so on to the end OF the
catalogue. for the use Of the army and
navy, were enough to appal any other people
than the American. These depi aysd and hun
cry leaders. with appettes for the spolls Of
office still ling ering in their Unsuitable maws,
haye now fasteled upon the Senate OF the Uni
ted States, and, with an avariciousness that
spurns all compromise, reason and control, de-
mand that no appointment shall be made with
out their having finger il the selection. Ia.
the honely phrase OF q Western senator, they
are ar - persistenly 'dng-dongIng" every member

teres RS corrupt as themselves, who are ready
and are employed to do their bidding in max

OF land for private purposes, and engaging in
olher scandalous practices, besides encouTac-
ing fraudulent appointments to Office.
