THE telegraph states that one of
the pardons issued by President
Johnson the day before he retired
from Office to Massachusetts man,
and subsequently revoked by Gen.
Grant, has again been sent to the
United States Marshal to be de-
livered to the party for whom it
was intended. The first official act
Of Attorney General Hoar, after
enteringupOn the duties of his Office
was TO advise Grant that his action
in the matter was wholly unwar-
ranted by law, and, therefore, void
and that the prisoners are entitled
to release. We are glad that the
voice of law begins to be heard al

COMMERCIAL AND FNKNCIAL.
1lIe GoVernment FLnaneea,

! The press is liberal in its praise Of
Mr., BoutWell's course. He appears en-
tirely free from any completely with
the various stock or gold 4cligues Of
Wall street. AS the Treasury now
holds some thirty millions Of currency,
and will steadily sell at least one mil
lion of gold per week to the end Of the
month, which will bring in full four
millions more, moderate receipts from
the usual revenue sources will proba'
bly, enable the Secretary TO continue
his purchase of bonds through the
coming month of August. His curren-
-cy balances will continue larger than
needful for the easy working OF the
Treasury, and his customs In gold, for
August, WnI be about $l7 SOC, 600, for
which he will have no use beyond
S.. .OOO, 600 to pay the drst of September
Interest on the TO- 40 five per cent. loan.
It is probable, therefore, If gold should
show o decided tendency to advance on
the restored ease of the money market,
that the Secretary Will avail OF the op-
market for so much of his surplus
as he may find It profitable to
invest for the sinking fund, beyond the
81 100000 every alternate Thursday
previously advertised to be sold. The
sinking fund, when the purchases al-
ready directed have been added to it,
will amount to eighteen millions of dol
lars the whole of 1t since the first of
March last. If before the expiration Of
the existing order to purchase expires,
IL shall become apparent that the bal
ance in the Treasury will warrant Its
continuance for the same of any other
amount, the Secretary will consult his
own quiet by making the announce
ment as far in advance OF the fact as
possible, thus cutting of all possibility
ON the part Of the individuous to charge
collusion and favoriteism, than which
nothing is more personally annoying
or directly prejudicial to the p9blic in
terest. In thus putting himself out of
the power of political opponents to inn
pugn his integrity, he will at the same
Time afford additional evidence of the
higher and more just ground of his
policy than that of mere expedlency In
relieving the money market, to the ad-
vantage Of one set ofgamblers In stocks
and gold at the expense OF another en-
gagged in sthe same diareputable ousi-
meas FL's. . - We

The accident on the CI1Fieg Railroad
Wednesday night (whereof we have
more horrible details this morning. }
was the most terrible that has Giocked
the community for many months. 1t
vast result OF criminal 1carelessness
on the part of the engineer of a freight
train, who in switching of left his en-
CINE partly on the main, : track. The
details are dreadful. A number of
passenger cars were crushed into q
mass or broken timbers, in which the
passengers, some crushed and some
lunipjured, were pinioned and imprlson'
ed. The wreck took fire. and these help
less persons, at taleast one of whom
was entirely unhurt, Wete literally
roasted alive. There seems to have
been nobody on the ground capable
of rendering aid Teither!in releaalug the
sufferers or in extinguishinR the flames.
There ought to be some way to guard
against these ffearfnl casualties; but
until railroad officers are taught by a
few examples the value OF the lives en-
trusted to their keeping, they sill con-
tinue to indulge the, careless, reckless
habits out of which most accidents
arise. Theft sense of responsibility
ought to be so, great that no momentary
forgetfulness OF it would ever betray
them into laxity. How they can, be
made to feel such responsibility, Is a
question to consider. Something ought
to be done to protect the public against
all but unavoidable accidents:
