EVANS. the embezzler, is still in New

EVANS, the embezzler, is still in New
York, and bids defiance to the plum
dered people of Pennsylvania. AT first
the people were inclined to give State
Treasurer Mackey credit for sincerity in
his efforts to bring Evans to justice
His zeal was greatly stimulated by the
hope OF humiliating Governor Geary.
But the delay Of more than two weeks
on the part of Mackey, in order to en-
able Evans to make all his arrange
ments to escape, has utterly broken
down the confidence of the people In
that official. 1t is believed that the ex-
posure would 60 farther than MIR.
Mackey anticipated, This will &C.
count for the change in the tactics OF
the treasury ring. When they were
menaced with exposure by the State
Journal they concluded it to be discreet
to abandon the search for Evans. A
detective could find the embezzler any
day in New York, but Mr.. Mackey
evidently does not want him.-HarrlS'

Mr. GREELEY may tally one. The
Cincinnati Commercial gives in its ad,
hesion to HIM for President. His
claims are weighed deliberately and
the following conclusion reached.
"For honesty, capacity, intelligence
nobility of character, quick and active
interest in all that effects the individual
and social welfare Of men, and which
will promote the industrial, educational
and political exaltation of the nation
Mr.. Greeley has no peer. His policy
would be as broad and as liberal as his
ideas, and his election would do more
to conciiate the North and South, and
bring about an era of good feeling and
fellowship than any other circumstance
likely to happen. We have had the
grip of the strong hand; let us try the
virtues of the warm and the generous

HEAVY defalcations have been dis
covered in the New York Postoffice.
Three or more persons are implicated
in the affair, and some arrests have been
made. Will the papers which are
believing about Tammany makes a
note Of these facts? Later intelligence
states that the leading criminal has
compounded with the government, and
resigned his place. He was a blatant
supporter of General GRANT. This &C
counts for the verdict in his case
Will our Radical contemporaries also
make a note OF the fact that it is a
heinous sin to plumber the city of New
York, but a venial offense to rob the
Postoffice of one hundred and fifty
thousand dollars, especially if the
criminal favors the denomination Of
General GRANT.

Mr.. HORACE GREELEY, is becoming
frightened at the recklessness with
which the Radical leaders are managing
affairs. In speech delivered at White
Water, Wisconsin, he said:
Fit shall please my conntrymen to
advance me to any place Of profit and
honor, I will accept it for the good Of
my country, the need to reform many
evils into which We have fallen. We
are becoming too reckless in our admin
istration of the government. We are
making innovations, and breaking into
time honored customs in a way that

A correspondent Of the New York
World, intimately acquainted with Cali
fornia affairs, addresses the World a
note concerning the recent elections.
He says: First-The mistake of Gov.
Haight was in calling out troops to
quell an imaginary riot of miners. We
have very many miners in California.
They are all voters, and are very
"touchy" about their rights. Second
The great majority of the people of Cali.
fornia are opposed to Chinese immigra-
ton. Many expect the State Govern
ment to do something, although they
cant tell what, to prevent it. They hope
that Republicans will do something
where the Democrats have failed.
Of course the State Legislature can
do nothing under the present Burlin-
game treaty. In this the voters will be
disappointed. The Legislature will
then be called upon to memorabilia the
National Administration and Congress
to have this treaty so changed or sup
planted as to give individual States the
right to make their own laws about this
matter. If the Republicans in the Leg
islature vote against such a memorial,
their pretended sympathy with the work
ing glasses on Chinese questions will
have been proven to be all bosh. If
they vote for it, the National Govern
ment will take no action. 1t is too
much afraid of the Fifteenth Amend
ment. In either dilemma, California
will 90 for the Democratic candidate for
President in 1872. She is as thoroughly
Democratic at heart now as ever.

Wilson, of Harrison, will probably be
nominated as one of the Democratic
candidates for the Convention from the
Fourth Senatorial District. The Colo

and good member OF the Convention
His experience in former similar body
will be of no little benefit to the Con-

THE nomination OF Ex-Governor JOEL
PARKER as the Democratic candidate
for Governor OF New Jersey seems to
be everywhere hailed as a presage Of
victory. His former administration
was deservedly popular and won the re-
spect and commentator of even his
political foes, while the present contrast
between JOEL PARKER and the Radical
candidate, CORNELIUS WALSH, is con,
fessedly to the credit Of the Democratic

A LADY corr espondent of the st. Louis

A LADY corr espondent of the St. Louis
Democrat, writing from Saratoga, thus
tells how to "do" the kangaroo flop"
First you must draw back your should
ers up in your neck, lean back as far
as YOU lean forward when you did the
Grecian bend, pin your elbows close to
your sides, draw up the lower part Of
your arms in a line with your chin,
now let your hands hang gracefully
(you need fan or mouchoir in one
HANDY. and lean your head over one
side Git must be stiff lean) as you
would do if you had boil on one side
of your neck. After you have succeed
ed in getting into this position, affect a
silly expression, if you are not fortunate
enough to have it naturally, and walk
with a swagger-quite positive swag,
as if your hips were hung on hinges.
As this art requires much practice, l.
would advise you not to try it on the
street, or in public dining room, right
away. Some Of the ladies here do it
beautifully, and it is surprising what a
talent many of the gentlemen have for
affecting the flop. Unless you have
pretty hands, with one Of the right ting-
ers covered with diamonds, don't try
the flop.

DR. Sloan stated to the stockholders
on the Goth OF October, 1870, that he
was due Pickrell $4,000. Two days
before this report to the stockholders
he had signed and approved Pickrell S
account for $464, 506.9 81, which is $6l,-
SOC. 81 more than he stated to the stock
holders was due. And hereby hangs a
Kildee. On the 25th day Of November
the day before Sloan, as President,
approved of Pickrells account-Pick-
rell paid Sloan $4,000 in cash for one
halfinterest in tract of land in Castor
county, containing only sixty-one and
a-half acres, which land Is assessed at
81. and was never assessed for more
than So per acre. Pickrell bought like
Littlefield, "unsight, unseen"
We have given the main features Of
the account, but it is so remarkable we
publish the whole of it as a monument
of the carpet-bag and scalawag roguery.
We said more than two years ago
that Sloan, Jones and Holden would be
in the penitentiary-Sloan and Jones
for defrauding the State in a cotton
transaction, under holden, as provision
al Governor, and Holden for appointing
them presidents Of railroads, after he
had evidence of their fraud and viliainy.
How glad the Radical rascals were to
have the attention of the people called
from their villainy to the Convention
question.
Was any country ever cursed with
such set of villains? Were any peo-
pie ever before required meekly to bear
it? Judge Watts released A. j. Jones,
who robbed the State of larger amount
than Pickrell and Sloan.
The Radicals and moderation men
will call us violent for having spoken
plainly upon these plain figures. Here
is money enough gone to have called
conventions and impeached drunken
Judges for thirty years to come. These
things, too, have been known to Cover
nor Caldwell, Phillips Il Co., yet they
spake not a word.

RadieaI Robbery In North Carolina.

Radical Robbery In North Carolina
From the Raleigh Sentinel Septembers.I
Judge Rodman held a Bush Court in
Newbern on the Sd. 4th and 9Th OF
August last, to release j. F. Pickrell
upon habeas corpus.
Pickrell and DR.. Sloan were indlct
ed in New Hanover Court, for conspl
racy to defraud the Wilmington, Char
lotte and Rutherford railroad, of which
Sloan was President. Upon a requisi
ton, the Governor OF New Y ork, unlike
the Governor of Florida, in the Little
field case, surrendered Pickrell, and he
was lodged in jail, when Judge Rodman
had him brought before him upon a
habeas corpus.
Upon the trial the following facts
and figures were exhibited: November
&c, 1870, DR.. Sloan sold 100000 o.
bonds, which melted the company $l5l,
25O-which is only 90 per cent, OF
1921 for every $1,000 of bonds. About
the same time the doctor sold 100000
of the first mortgage bonds of the com
pany for 46S, which bonds were worth
10, and had never sold for less.
1t also appeared at this Bush Court
where Pfckrell was released. that hi
loaned DR.. Sloan, President of the Com
pany, 100000 on the 2lst day OF Jan
uary, 1870, and charged him as CON.
mission two per cent. per month
