A Word of EXPLANATION.


A valued correspondent, who has OBJ
served tho recent proceedings in Congress
, respecting the sale of csdetships, inquiries
. what we mean by Copperhead cadets Id osr
inquiries touching transactions between Mr.
A. T. sfEwARr and the present President.
When Gen. GRANT, with million Of loyal
and brave men to help him, was engaged IN
putting down the rebellion In the South,
there were good many People in this North
ern stutcs WHO hoped aud desired that the
General and his gallant comrades might not
succeed in their great task. These people
wished that the Southern Confederscy,
slavery and ALL might prevail over the
Union, and that GRANT and all our soldiers
might be Slaughtered, or ct least shame
fully defeated and conquered The common
name for this cluss Of people is Copperhead.
In natural history copperhead 10 poison.
GUS snake. that is very dangerous TO all who
approach it. That name was first assumed
in the very beginning of the rebellion, be
fore GRANT had oven become colonel, by
company Of sympathzers with the insurrec-
ton in one Of the Western States and from
them it came to DO applied TO me whole e1sss'
everywhere.
While the war was going on there were
plenty of noblehcarsed young boys, who,
though under the requisite age, enlisted in
our ranks, and did service as soldiers with
che boldest and strongest. Several Of them
were afterward appointed cadets at West
Point and Annapolis; and Gen. GRANT never
did Q better thing than whom he sent snch
splendid young s>l,o~v 10 ss csisoaed at the
4 public charge. Besides, they were oh poor,
and could not give presents in return for
their appointments
But there were also boys who were Cop
perheads, born of Copperlead fathers and
mothers, with Copperhead IDEAS carefully
nurtared in their minds, and with no prayer,
If they ever prayed at all, except that the
Confederscy should triumph, GRANT and his
army being slain or captured and forced to
surrender If these boys did not enlist In
the Confederate army, it was because they
had not the manly courage to be soldiers at
all, or because they did not wish to risk
their property by leaving their homes in the
North and going to tho Conf0deracy to join
in killing our soldiers aud destroying our
country
When one Of this class Of young men is
now appointed to West Point or Annapolis,
he is what we call a Copperhead cadet; and
we trust that our meaning is now clear to
our correspondent Now. what we ask in
| respect to this matter ia that Congress
should inquire I, whether 6en. GRANT has
ever appointed any cadets at the request Of
A T. STEWART? Q. were they che sons Of
Republicans or CopperhesdsP and, 3, was
there any reason for such appointments ex-
cept the money that STEWART has given 10
GRANITE When all the points are cleared up,
ii will be possible to determine whether
there was any intrinsic difference besween
such Appointments and those which the dis
reputable WHITTENoRE has been punished
for dealing in.

George Wilkes for Congress.

We are pleased TO learn that the Repubf-
cans have determined 10 send GEORGE
WILKES to Congress He has served the
party faithfully and efficiently; and at the
same time he ought to receive large NUN
Der Of votes outside Of the regular Rcptbli
can organization.
When Gen GRANT became President, ii
was expected that he would evince some
appreciation Of the public merits of Mr..
WILKES by appointing him to an important
foreign mission. This was not done, how
ever, probably because Gen, GRANT does not
think tho press can help him In getting 10
Nominated and reelected. For this reason
the Republicans are the more anxious to do
Mr.. WILKES justice.

The President Assumes the RESPONSE
biIify.

President GRANT, with courage for which
ct least lie deserves credit, boldly assumes
the responsibility Of the BAEz-BABcocK proto-
col. He has written to Senator NYE letter,
in which he says explicitly. "Gen. BADcocx
did not exceed my wishes or my verbal in
structions to him in connection with the con-
fdential basis "Gen. BABcocK's conduct
throughout meets my hearty approval"
What new dodge will the Presidents syco-
phantic admirers now resort to, to defend him
from the disgrace which his conduct in this
matter has brought upon him He does not,
ike them, zee the gross improperly Of pri-
vately agreeing with a foreign power to
overcome the opposition of coordinate
branch of the Government against an odious
and unjustifiable measure.

JOHNSON ever did, merited impeachment as

The False Reporting Tribune-such is the
title which that once honored journal has ac-
CURED since il has been under the con
troll Of Mr.. WHIrRLAw RHID-recently pub
lished an untrue report Of meet
ing at Plymouth Church in Brooklyn, where
some remarks Of very unusual character, con.
sideiing the place and the occasion, we're nttrb-
uted to Mr.. Thomas G. SuEARMAS, the we'll
known barrister. Mr.. SHRARxAS Immediately
published a card in which he indignant
" denied meking ase Of the ahguHQe In
question, and characterized il az /" blasphemous."
The False reporting Tribune Of yesterday with.
draws its charge against Mr. SHEARMAN, and
says that the Objectionable language was used
by another person, whom it names But with
remarkable faulty the False reporting Tribune
proceeds to boast that several gentlemen" Us it
is pleased to term them, called at the office Of the
False Reporting Tribune after tie publication Of
Mr.. SnEARMANs card, and voluntarily offered to
furnish their afIidavts that he did make use of
the language attributed to him The Fdlse.
Reporting Tribune, however, not being inclined
TO press the charge against MIR. SHEARMAS, did
not avail itself of this Kind offer.
II would seem from this rem arkablc statement
that since MIR. GREgLEYs illness has left the
whole management Of the paper in the hands Of
Mr.. WmrRLAw REID, he has had friends and re-.
tainers about the establishment who are ready 10
back up his statements with their oaths, even
when conlessedly destitute Of TRUTH The pub
lie will now be able to understand the value of
any evidence which the Tribune, SO long as il
remains in charge Of Mr.. REID, may furnish 10
support of any controyerted statement

Reform IL Altouefheri

For many years past there has been a sharp
composition for the Offices of Collector, Naval
Officer, and Surveyor. at all the large ports in
the country. This is mainly due TO the
enormous perquisites which pertain to those
places in the form Of fines, penalties, and for.
FIXTURES. Tile general rule is, that the pro
ceeds which result from all seizures Of
goods and vessels, and the imposition Of
certain fnes for violations of the
revenue laws are to be divided by giving
one half to the Government, and the other
half, in equal shares, to the three officers
above named. The receipts from this source
Of one of these officers have amounted at the
port of New York, in single year, TO more
than $4,000. Indeed, during the war, this
was about the average amount, as we are
informed, which was received annually on
this account by each of these officers and
we learn that it reached much larger figure
at one period subsequent to the downfall of
the rebellion.
This is oil wrong, and the system should
% radically reformed. Besides these per.
quisitcs Collectors Naval Officers, and Sur
veyors at the large ports receive handsome
salaries If these are not ample enough, let
them be increased /; hut let them be definite.
ly fixed, and be paid as salaries while the
fines, penalties, and forfeitures should all be-
handed over to the Treasury, there to re-
main, with the exception of reasonable
share To- be paid TO informers other than Off,
