OUR Government is not only diffJsiye Of
its blessings, but difusive of its organj-
zation. 1t is spread out over the country
in order, Se presume, that the people
may come more directly in contact with
its healthy moral influences. The Exc
cutive Department looks out from beneath
the lotus-like shades of The banks of the
Hudson. The Postoffice Department is
down on the eastern shore of Maryland.
The Interior Department is quietly repos-
ing beneath the locusttrees of Mt. Vernon,
Ohio. The other Departments are scat
tered over different parts of the country,
wherever official blessings may be dis
pensed at greatest advantage. The only
man belonging to the Government proper,
now at his post is the postmaster at Gov
ington, KY, and it is reported that he is
about to resign. But his name is Grant.
We are therefore slow to believe the re-
port. Uncle Jesse will stick.

Net total, $SO7. 3l9,272. The estimated
collections of income for the last fiscal
year ending June 30, 1871, are S25, 600, =
900, but owing TO the decision of Com
missi deer Plessanton in regard to the col
lection of two and one-half per cent. on
dividends for the last five months of
1870, it will be impossible to ascertain
the exact amount due from this source of
revenue for some time. In round mum
bers the amount collected from income
since the revenue law was passed may be
set down at 1892, 900, 900.

TEE newspapers on both sides of the
Atlantic are awaiting themselves TO the
fullest possible extent of the wide latitude
offered for speculation and surmise rela-
tive TO the meaning of the coming meet
inc between the Emperor Willisnl and the
Emperor Francis Joseph at Gasteiu. The
Tribune thinks that it is mere midsum.
mer folly to suppose that it is for the
purpose of forming an alliance against
Russia, and believes that it has some sort
of a reference to the dogma of infslli.
bility and the measures to be adopted to
free Germany from SITS divided allegi-
snce TO Rome" Another newspaper thinks
that the object of the meeting cannot
now be OWNED, and that we must wait
until we see the suite Of the respective
potentstes. 1t argues that if Bismsrk
accompany Kaiser William, then we may
smen politics, and scent alliance and
standing srmies-and if not, not.

GEORGIA is good place for criminals.
1t appears that Gov. Bullock has, during
his incambency, granted 4O2 out of 46s
applications for pardons; among the Of
fenses pardoned being Sc murders, 81
manslaughters, SO assaults with intent 10
kill, and 50 burglaries. Bullock, Of
Georgia, beats Scott, of South Carolina,
as friend of the lswless. 1t was thought
monstrous of the latter TO nullify the
actions of the courts in POS out of 1856
convictions in one year, by granting par
dons to the former number of convicts,
but Bullock's pardons throw Scott into
shade. These csrpet-bagge-s have fine
conceptions of public duty. No doubt
the criminals pArdoned By Bullock and
Scott are Gro by loip' and reliable men

THE GATLIN GUNS.

NEW ORLEANS, Aug. 15.-Dispstches
received from Washington to day are to
the effect that the President strongly de.
nounces the conduct of the Federal off
GERS in relation to the late convention, and
that to save the Republican party, and
keep his administration free from embar-
rassment, he will remove Casey, Packard
and others.-NeaV York Tribune.
The Washington Patriot says: "This
telegram lacks one essential element OF
truth and probability. The President
was not in Washington, and since the
disgraceful affair at New Orleans, has
kept logged silence on that subject,
which authorizes very different opinion
from that announced by some super
serviceable tool, who hoped by this trick
to turn aside the popular indignation. Il
looks as if the dispatch was fabricated for
effect at Long Branch, and as means OF
bringing artificial opinion to bear 10 the
removal of the faction, who concocted
the outrage under the lead of the Presi-
dents brother in-law. 1t is well known
that Collector Casey was on a visit to
Long Branch, shortly before the meeting
of the Convention. Aud the presumption
is reasonable, that the whole plan was
contrived with the knowledge of the par
tisan circle, who compose the refined So
ciety of the sea shore Capital. 1t viii be
time enough when "Casey, Packard,
and Others are removed from the Offices
which they dishonor, TO speak of the
Presidents purposes. There is no evil
dence 10 warrant any such belief now,
and past experience juslifes no such con-
clusion. But if they were all removed to-
morrow, that would not alter the material
fact OF this case. The real and momentous
question, which excites public feeling,
is, how came these troops to be employed
at all, and by what authority9 No appli-
cation was made 10 the commander on
the spot, but the United States Marshal
Packard telegraphed to Gan. Reynolds,
in Texas, who, upon his statement only,
gave the order, and apparently without
the least inquiry of his subordinate in
New Orleans. That is the real and seri-
Gus point May commanding general
thousand miles away, authorize parti-
san marshal o employ troops for ouch
purpose, OF, indeed, for any purpose,
without fret informing himself of the ne.
cessity? This interference concers the
discipline Of the army, and above that
the liberty of the citizen. For if Gen
eral may thus combine with partisan
civilian 10 invade a political Convention
and storm it in the panoply Of wsr, then
he msy in the same spirit annul an cleo
tion-arres, voters, destroy ballots, and
become 3 mere mercenary soldier of des-
potic power. Where IS the security, il
such On outrage as thia be tolerated, which
is but the first step OF Executive eXorb-
itaGce under the infamous Ku-KluX bill,
which was designed to put military
power in the hands of the President, to
coerce his denomination, and to carry his
election at the poiat of the bayonet2
