WHEN Gen. jackson was President the
Bay of Tunis sent him several thorough
bred Arabian horses as a present, but that
great man did not accept the same, and
the Mahommed and Abdallah stock were
disposed of by sale. The present mill
tary chieftain, who is the successor of
that great military hero, has been more
noted for the readiness with which he ac-
cepts than declining gratuities. The
latest addition to the mansion" in future,
is ''token of amity and sympathy" as
the Washington Chronicle titles it, from
the Sultan of Turkey, and the Minister
Resident of his Ottoman Majesty has (per-
haps from the facilities offered him to
purchase material of war here, informed
Gen. Grant that orders have been issued
to the imperial factories at Ourchak, near
Smyrna, Asiatic Turkey, for the especial
manufacture of large carpet, in one
piece, for the service of the White House
supposed to be for the celebated east
Room" the dimensions of which have
been transmitted to the manufacturers.
This international" exchange of pres
ents or testimonials is very gratifying to
the great American people, no doubt, but
there are many instances where persons,
individuals holding commissions in the
Navy, have been designated to be honored
by foreign orders or gold-scabbared
swords, who have failed to receive the
requisite permission to accept even from
the hands of Congress How about the
reception of the carpetl and what will
the Committee of the Senate and House
do in reference therefor

GRANTS pet project of annexing 81.
Domingo is encountering opposition from
an unexpected quarter. A messenger has
arrived at Washington from Gen. Cabral,
late President of st. Domingo, who is the
leader of the ''patriots" of that island,
who holds the interior and several posts,
bearing a protest against annexation,
signed by some three thousand leading
men of the country, and also having the
Assurance that other protests, of a similar
character, will soon follow. These are to
be filed with the Secretary of State, and
communicated to the Senate. Baez, it is
reported, has become SO unpopular by
reason of his coercive attempts to secure a
large vote for annexation, for personal
profit, that it is difficult to secure for him
immunity from personal danger. 1t is
also stated that large number of votes,
alleged to have been cast and reported
upon, are fictitious, manufactured for the
occasion TO produce an effect upon the
President and Senate.

IT has been reported that the Hon.
Horace Greeley, the editor of the New
York Tribune, and the Hon. John Nor
rissey, the pngilistic member of Congress
from the city of New York, had entered
into little arrangement by which each of
their political wings of their respective
parties was to be especially benefited. Of
this the New York Times says:
OF course the Tribune will inform an
anxious public precisely what truth is in
the current rumors relating 70 Mr.. Gree
ley's alliance with the ''Young Democra-
cy" in their opposition TO the proposed
charter. The story is that Mr.. John
Morissey, in behalf of O'Brien, Norton,
Genet, Dreamer & Co., has rendered Mr..
Greeley an active support in the event of
his obtaining another Republican nomina.
ton; and that Mr.. Greeley, with charac-
teristic ambition, has closed the bargain.

ACCORDING to the Cincinnati Enquirer,
one-third of the nine hundred and seventy
four prisoners in the Ohio PenitentiarY
are young men, whose age does not ex-
coed twenty-one years, and two thirds of
them ere under thirty. 1t well says, that
that this is a shocking picture of youthful
deprayity, and indicates some enormous
defect in the bringing up and education
of the generation which is so soon TO take
an active part in the affairs of life. The
reins of home government are held far
too loosely for the welfare of the youths
of this country. Boys are permitted to
roam the streets at night, and visit billiard
and drinking saloons, and girls patronize
dancing schools and parties, where the
first steps are taken in that road which
ends in the ruin of character, body and
soul. If reform of a real substantial
character is TO be inaugGrated, parents
must lay the first stones of the edifice. If
they will make home a school of disci-
pline. rather than boarding house for
eeYoung America" and the "Gil of the
Period, f" there will be fewer inmates for
Houses of Refuge and Penitentiaries.

rLoRIpA NEEDS RE-nEC0N-

n
SEDUCTION.
The Palatka ella Herald makes the
following statement:
ssWithfn short time, David w. Mizeil,
Sheriff of Orange county, Florida, was
lvaylaid and killed, and Immediately after,
lNeedham and John Yates were arrested
SIS The murderers and were shot by the
guard, as alleged, while attempting to
escape. Since then Moses Barber, Jr.,
was arrested and securely ironed, and he,
toa, was shot and killed by the guard TO
prevent his escape, and report has it that
Isaac Barber was arrested, and he has
been shot and killed while attempting to
escape"
The Savannah Neaos states that the
last four named victims were Democrats,
who were arrested, as it would seem, on
suspicion of having murdered Sheriff
ldizell, and were afterwards assassinated
Icy the Radical mob to prevent their es-
cape. We hear of no 81, 900 rewards for
the arrest of the perpetrators of these
assassinations, who are known IN the
community in which they live, and no
clamors in Washington for the recon-
struction of Florida. That State has
been thoroughly radicalized and negro
lied, and the carpet-bag harpies, Reed and
Iitttlefeld, are having full swing in
plundering her treasury. If these out
RACES had been committed in Tennessee,
we should have had Radical howl for
reconstruction which would almost have
lifted Ben. Butler out of his seat. But
a; the Radicals have control of Florida,
these are regarded as very trifing occur
rences.

SECRETARY Bo5TwKLI, in answer 10 q
letter from Collector Grinnell, writes as
follows: 'The acceptance of money OF

performed by custom house officials, either
during or outside of business hours, must
be regarded as cause for removal. This
is intended to apply to all officials where
custom houses are located
Nashville union and American. [volume] (Nashville, Tenn.) 1868-1875, 1870-04-07

The New York Nation, the ablest
Radical journal in thecountry, has 'heard
nothing yet said about Tennessee, as an
excuse for fresh reconstruction, which
may not be also said of New York" Very
true, perhaps, as matter of theory; but,
as q matter of practice, Congress dare not
NEEDLE with the 'Empire State, a" and can
safely treat as it pleases s'traItorous Ten
nessee." This is the whole difference.

The New York Times, speaking of the
procrastination to which the subject of re-
duced taxation is being sacrificed by the
Republican party, says that ''the people
viii not always submit to be put of like
cIsildrer." If such threat as that had
J been uttered by a Southern paper, it
would have been denounced as the effer-
vescence of an ''unrepentant Rebel.

THOSE OUTRAGES.

The Radical reconstructionists are still
harping on the outrages in the South. In
reference to those outrages we copy from
the Chicago Times the following:
A most emphatic contradiction of the
Radical assertions concerning the insecu-
rity of Northern men in the South is fur
nished by the experience of the large
number of Chicago men who have pur
chased plantations in Louisiana Every
one of these gentlemen has only glowing
accounts to give of the fertility of the
soil, the delightful character of the eli
mate, and the hospitality and geniality of
the native Southern population. Every
one of these Chicago people is prepared
to refute as a calumny all statements to
the effect that Union sentiments are cause
for i'll treatment.
The truth is, the South has gotten
through with the war; and is now hearty
at work trying to rebuild the country. Its
people welcome all good men from the
North, and ask no questions as to their poll
tics. That this is so is shown in a thou
sand ways, among which may be reck~
oDed the following letter from Gen. Beau
regard to our gallant townsman, Gen.
John NJ. Corse:
, ''NEw ORLEANS, March %, 1870
Dear General: am happy to
hear that you are to become a citizen of
Louisiana. Gentlemen from the North and
West, like those who have represented
here, this winter, the great city of Chica-
go, viii always be welcomed by us as
