p%The New York Sun, Radical, thus
pitches into Postmaster General Cresswell and
bis former partner, Mr.. Earle. 1t says:
"The Sun. has stopped printing the Post
Office advertisement of letters remaining un-
called for. The reason is that Postmaster
General Cresswell can't afford to pay for it
any longer. He wants to have it done by
some paper that is willing to do it gratuitous-
". No wonder. The Post Office Depart
ment has lost so much money by frauds like
the Chorpenning swinde that Mr.. Creswell
must feel very poor, although his partner may
be very rich. The convenience of the public
is nothing to these gentlemen"

safely. This bill strikes at the Door poop

safely. This Dill strikes at the poor people
who cannot afford to withdraw their children
from the public schools and send them to pay
schools, so they must, in the event of this bill
passing, either mix with negroes or 60 with
out education. The next step will be to in
clude private schools in the same category, as
they by law here force places of amusement
and hotels to receive black and white alike.
The Radicals purpose taking the education Of
our youth from the States and vest the power
in the Federal government and then that
which is an experiment in Washington will
be the fixed rule all over the country.
1t is understood that the West Point inves-
tigating committee, who will make their re-
port to-day, will recommend the expulsion Of
the FIRST class from the Academy, and that
the officers of the institution be reprimanded,
and their posts Of duty changed. No matter
what the committee may recommend the
power of the President, whose son is charged
with being one Of the ringleaders in the out
rage, will be brought to bear against such
punishment. The military ring at the White
House and the relatives of the offenders, who
for the most part are enjoying sinecure posi-
tons around Washington, aided by General
Sherman, who only lobbies when the army is
touched, will swarm the floors of both Houses
in their efforts to save those who justly de-
serve the severest punishment for unmanly
and brutal conduct.
The Carnival to be held here on February
Goth and 2lst, bids fair to be grand success.
There are 100000 visitors expected. Penn
sylvania Avenue, with its magnificent wooden
pavement, will be the scene of the horse rae
ing, also the grand tournament. A prize of
81 900 will be given to the best drilled reg-
ment out of the four or five who design visit
ing the Carnival. Eight German singing
associations will participate. Six or eight
bands of music have been engaged. A most
magnificent display of stereoptican dissolving
views will be exhibited during the evening.
Masqueraders, bonfires, Examinations, fire.
works; balls, ETC., will make this display rival
the Grand Carnivals of Rome, Florence and
other Italian cities. From the energy of the
committees and the large amount Of money
raised, the success of this great National Car
nival is assured.
1%A very interesting investigation has
been going on at Washington in relation to
Gen. Buffers management of the funds of the
National Asylum for Disabled Soldiers and
Sailors. Precisely what the Committee have
discovered is not yet known; but it is sus-
picious circumstance that Gen. Butler, though
accused of misusing the money in his charge,
has succeeded in foiling the effort of the pro-
secution to bring before the Committee his
private accounts relating to the subject. Ac-
cordingly, it is probable that he will be thor
oughly whitewashed by the report, and that
the public will place very little confidence in it.

Il is now maintained in France that it will

peace between the meeting of the National
Assembly and the expiration of the armistice

thought in London that it will be complied
with. Should fighting be renewed, however
Germany, it is said, will Immediately over
run the whole of France, its preparations to
that end being of the most formidable charac-

will enter Paris on the 10th instant. The
French provincial newspapers are generally

Railroad Slaughter.
. A terrible slaughter of life on the Hudson
River Railroad took place during the darkness
Of Monday night last. a burning oil ca,
was flung upon passenger train, and the
flames spread in an instant over cars filled
with human beings. Nothing could be done
for their salvation, and their charred corpses
dropped with the smoking wreck through the
chasm in the burned bridge to the bed of the
river, and when daylight dawned the work Of
exhuming them was commenced. The pic
-ture is ghastly. and conveys an impression Of
what were the tortures of the victims, some
of whom were women and children. Twenty
bodies have been recovered, and this is believ-
ed to cover the entire loss Of life.

A SICK CROWD.

The captain of one OF the largest
steamboats, running on the Potomac
was astonished M day lately, as his
boat touched the landing at one of
the riverside watering-places not Il
great distance from Washington, to
e all the guests assembled with
their baggage ready to take passage
for the city. In making inquiries
Us 10 the cause of this Sudden exodus
he soon discovered that thereby
hung a tale. A cats. 1t appears
the fare at the hotel had disagreed
with the boarders, and not satisfied
with complaining they took French
leave. A batch of dough had been
prepared for the oven and placed on
a table. \ playful kitten thought it
would be nice to run over 1t, 1t
looked SO snowy, farm and tempt
ing. Kitty tried it, and soon found
her delicate little feet sinking in the
dough. She struggled to escape,
and, like Governor Morton in the
stolen treaty business, only struggled
to sink deeper until this youthful
cat disappeared entirely, and so, like
young Lochinvar, went into the
Yeast. She never rose again. but
the bread did. 1t closed over this
unfortunate specimen. not leaving
Il hair apparent. Cooky, of course
was not aware Of that, instead of a
loaf of bread, she had a kitten
dumpling, and put the mass into the
over and baked it. When the bread
was opened at breakfast next morn
ing, the birds did not begin to sing,
but the boarders did. They fairly
howled with wrath. They knew
that there had been a family Of kit
tens, and as hash had been served
for breakfast before this extraOrdin-
AIRY loaf was opened. the conclusion
was natural that the other part Of
the family had gone into the hash
and down their tnroats. They were
first taken with sea-sickness, next
with-home sickness. and then en-
sued a general packing-up. The
fashionable summer resort was left
with no inhabitants but the cook and
the bar-keeper and what remained OF
the family of kittens.
