FUREIrURE OF SCHoESFELD BRos. or
VIRGISIA.-An acquaintance of ours
bought parior set of furniture, the
other day, Of Schoenfeld Brcs, Viz.
GINA City. 1t was a part of the bar
gain, made with our concurrence, that
in case the goods came down as guar
anteed. the said Schoenfeld Bros. should
be "puffed'; in the APPEAL. We sup.
pose, therefore, that the other horn of
the dilemma is to be considered if it
may be shown that those dealers in
furniture failed of such exercise of hon
esty as would have entitled them to
such favorable mention. They did not
live up TO their promises; they ask a
price for their goods which is nearly
double that demanded by Carson mer-
chants they play all the mean tricks
Of the peddler's trade upon all who
happen to be aliured into their den !;
and all who would avoid being made
the prey of sharpers should steer as
clear Of their establishment az they
can without getting run over.

CURIOUS CABINET INCIDENTS.

On the occasion Of President
Johnson's visit to New York on
his way to attend the laying Of the
cornerstone of the monument to
Stephen A. Douglas, Mr.. A. T.
Stewart, who was appointed Secre-
tary of the Treasury by Grant, but
had to decline because of inehgi-
bility, headed the committee Of cit
liens which received him, and was
prominent among the guests at the
banquet at Delmonico's, where Mr..
Johnson made his famous speech.
At the time of the somewhat cele-
brated Philadelphia convention,
Mr.. Stewart was counted as one
who favored the third party which
that convention was intended TO
inaugurate. A knowledge Of this
fact may have had something to do
with the refusal of Congress to re-
peal the law of 1889 for the benefit
Of Stewart.
After President Johnson had We
toed the civil rights bill and the
Freedmen's Bureau bill, and per
haps other bills, Gov. Cox visited
Washington, called a meeting of
Ohio Congressman and read to
them long and very earnest letter,
in which he strove to convince
them of the honesty and purity of
Johnson's purposes, and besought
them to forego their opposition and
yield somewhat to Johnson's preju-
dices on civil rights and other dis
puted questions.
Hon. John A. J. Creswell, the
new Postmaster General, has an
interesting political record, which
has been dug up by MACK, the
Washington correspondent of the
Cincinnati Enquirer 1t appears
that in the spring of 1861, he
raised military company, at Elk
ton, Md, for the openly avowed OBJ
ject Of intercepting the passage of
Federal troops through Maryland.
This fact has so often been proved
that it is no longer denied, Mack
says he has seen Creswell confront
ed in the Senate with secession
resolutions, of which he acknowl-
edged himself to have been the
author They were passed at
meeting in Eastern Maryland,
over which he presided, As |
soon as he found the Federal mil |
itary in full possession of Mary |
land, he changed his principles and

AN account is printed elsewhere
of an attempt to arrest a noted In
dian desperate in Mississippi,
which resulted in the death of one
and the wounding of another of the
parties who went to make the arrest
Ii appears that two of the metro
politan police of Memphis were
ordered by the Rev. Mr.. Pearne,
the Chief Commissioner of the
police of that city, to accompany
Capt. Haynes, Of the Arkansas
militia, TO Horn Lake, Miss, and
there arrest Cub Harlan, a refugee
from Arkansas. In the effort to
perform this duty, Sergeant Finch.
one of the policemen, was so badly
wounded by Harlan that he died
By what authority did the reverend
Commissioner of Police of Mem
phis order his men to go into an
other State to make an arrest
The Memphis Appeal says What
makes this affair the more lamen-
table, is the fact that Finch was
slain in carrying out an illegal
order, and in such a manner that
the man who killed him can never
be punished for it.

In is said that Stewart, the late
almost Secretary of the Treasury,
is business man of extraordinary
sagacity. 1t failed him for once,
however. 1t is apparent that he
was very DESTROYS of the Secreta-
ryship, and in order to obtain it
was willing to sacrifice his income
of six millions for the next four
years, or in other words to pay a
million and a half year for the
honor. If, instead of proposing to
put this sum in charity trust fund
for the city of New York, he had
quietly offered it in sums of TWEEN
ty-five or fifty thousand dollars to
Senators and Representatives, he
would be the Secretary to-day
His elevation from the counting
room seems TO have fuddled his
faculties.

The contrast between Grant S
chief cabinet officer and those of
other Presidents is very striking.
Seward was chief of Lincoln's; Cass,
of Buchanan's; Marcy, of Gen.
Pierce's; Webster, of Fillmore's;
Clayton, of Taylor's; Buchanan, of
Folks; Webster, of Harrison's and
Tyler's; Forsyth, of Van Buren's;
Van Buren,, of Jackson's; Henry
Clay, Of John Quincy Adams; John
Quincy Adams, of Monroe's, Mon
roe, Of Madison's; and Madison, of
Jeffersons.

TALLEYRAND said a blunder in
Statecraft was a crime. Grants
first blunder was through ignorance
of the laws of which he spoke so
SYSTEMATICALLY the day before.
This, a generous people will pardon,
for they expected no more. But his
second one is something worse, and
is objectionable in a government OF
laws. His message asking exemp-
ton for Stewart was tantamount to
asking for the dispensing power
the abuse of which drove "the last
of the Stewards" from the throne Of
England.

1T is now almost certain that the
Senate will pass the House bill re-
pealing the tenure-ofoffice act.
This is a necessity to appease Office
seekers, but it is justification Of
President Johnson's veto Of the
tenure-of-office bill. The Radicals
will now be compelled TO justify a
good many things they denounced
in Andrew johnson.
