It seems really to have come to
this, that the President of'the United
States cannot invest his means in
any direction whatever without be-
coming liable to partisan aspersions
and charges of corruption. Long
before he was elected to the Fresi-
dency General Grant purchased
stock in the Seneca Stone Com
pany, and which he has held until
now, although not receiving a dol
lar of revenue from it. Some time
ago contracts were made with the
company to furnish stone for some
Government work. Whereupon the
partisan press broke out into fierce
assaults upon the Executive, charging
him with being concerned in sjobs, "
and interested improperly i'll the
contracts i'll question. 10 put an
end to this thing, the President
has now ordered his stock to be
sold, thus affording those who have
been impugning his motives in the
possession of it to step forward and
purchase it, and SO get the benefit
of his "unwarrantable speculation" "

extraordinary girth, and buried to
the eyes in fat, held their first
meeting of the season at 165 Allen

account of the strength of its floors.
Mr.. a. Brandt, 800 pound pres
ident, fully occupied the chair, and
Mr.. George Meyer, a splendid spec
linen of the fatted calf, weighing
fully 247 pounds, was treasurer.
The meeting was jovial one, the

get excursion and picnic, which
they propose to hold at an early
day. None who can't turn the
scales at 200 pounds need apply.
