OLD DOCUMENTS ARE DANGEROUS
THINGS

Mr.. John Sherman, Senator from Ohio
is one of the most earnest supporters Of
Grants administration, and is an advocate
for the payment of United States bonds in
coin. Some wicked fellow has been rum,
aging among old newspaper files, and ma.
liciously drawn forth the following letter,
from which it will be seen that he did not
always hold to that view. Some of his late
speeches would not read well if published
by the side of this letter:
UNITED. STATES SENATE CHAMBER
WASHINGTON, March 20, l868.-Dear Sir:
/ was pleased to receive your letter. My
personal interests are the same as yours
but, like You, do not intend to be iRtiR-
encCd bg them. NV construction Of the
law is the result of careful examination.
and l feel quite sure an impartial court
would confirm it, if the case could be tried
before a court. l send You my views, as
fully stated in a speech. Your idea is, that
We propose to repudiate or violate promise
when we offer to redeem the principal in
legal tenders.
/ think the bGndholder violates his prom
Use when he refuses to take the same kind
Of money he paid for the bonds. If the
case is to be tested by the law, am right;
if it is to be teste by Jay Cookies advertise
ments, am wrong. | hate reputation, OF
anything like il, but we. ought not TO be de-
tered from doing what is right by fear OF
undeserved epithetS. If under the law as
it stands the holders of the fiyc-twenties can
only be paid in gold, then we are Tepudiators il
we propose to pay otherwise. If the bond
holder can legally demand only the kind OF
money he pad. t!en he is a repudatOr and
eXtortioner to demand money more yalUa-
bic than he gave.

The staid old New York journal Of
Commerce thinks there is but one opinion
among intelligent critics OF all parties as to
the want of good taste in the introduction
of Mr.. Catacazy's name in The Presidents
message. "As the dispute was chiefly per-
sonal, says that paper, 'and grew entirely
out of an unseemly squabble between those
members of the social circle not necessarily
recognized in diplomatic relations Gemale
jealousy Of a pretty woman lying at the
bottom Of it) it would have been wise, We
think, says the Journal, under the circum-
stances, to have omitted all reference to it
in prominent State paper" Or, if he felt
so sore about it That he could not forbear a
parting shot at the retiring diplomat, lie
would have gvenit much additional dig
nifty ifhe had suppressed the name,

The most recent reports from Persia
through English sources of information,
show that the reports Of famine in that
country have not been exaggerated. Col.
Pelly, who distributed food to the famished
wretches about Bushise, purchased with
funds supplied by the charitable in India,
draws sad picture of suffering on the Per.
sian seabOard. He has little comfort to
impart for the future, and he expresses a
fear that the famine will hardly abate be-
fore the harvest season of April or May
next. With so many starving people sur.
rounding his house aud clamoring for bread
he deems it ga sad absurdity' to question
(as was done by the Persian Minister ii
London) the existence of a famine.

IT seems probable that the death of the
negro Lieutenant Governor DUNN Of
Louisiana has completely broken the po-
htical status in Louisiana, and turned over
the power Of the State TO the Yarmouth
party, which is opposed TO Grant. All the
acts of the Legislature require the signature
of the Governor, President of the Senate,
and Speaker Of the House. The Speaker OF
the House and Lieutenant Governor Dunn
formed a majority against Wafmout here
tofore. at the meeting of the Legislature
in January, this will be changed to a ma
iority with Yarmouth, whose friends have
Just elected Pinchback, negro, President
of the Senate.

GaRANr AND mURpHY.

The New York Tribune returns to it, re-
lentess pursuit Of Murphy, and makes what
it calls an end of the eX-Collector. in a long
article reviewing his course, and presenting
fresh disclosures of his rascalitieS. It al
leges that evidence has Just been discovered
proving him 10 be deiaulter to the amount
Of nearly half million on a blanket
contract during the war. THIS in addition
to his shoddy hat Speculations. The ques-
ton naturally suggests itself, how this fraud
has been concealed SO long; Grant must
have known of il, or he takes very little in
terest IN what he ought to know. lie
certainly did know Of the shoddy hat spec
ulation, for that was exposed by the iri-
btule nearly three months ago. Since then
Grant has endorsed Murphy. The follow
ing communication from the Tribune is to
the point:

Taking what you have said about eX-Col-
lector Murphy TO be true only in part, il
seems 10 me that President Grants lauda-
ton OF 50 dishonest a creature as Won have
proved him, deserves the Contaplrt of every
honest man in the land BY the mass Of
the party in this section of the country,
outside of those who own and edit newsns--
pars under official patronage and dicarior.
the Presidents letter accompanying Nun
PHYS resignation is considered a specimen
of shameless and defiant appreciation Of a
favOrite, in the very fIce cf unconToverted
facts, which would render him an object OF
suspicion in the even the ordinary and pr
waite transactions Of business: but the Pres
ident evidently deems him 4 model of hon
esty and official worth. God help the poor
country whose chief ruler cannot part with
thieves, who e displaced by popular clam
OF, without fe;r5 Of regret One might
have expected The President, in view of the
very general dissatisfaction and distrust, to
forbear his compliments.
