An odd and sad story comes to us from
~. 1'i A discussing officer Of the Post
o#oo Department is said to be defaulter to
a,nsiderabe amount also, that he is dIscov-
ored TO be insane; also, that his predecessor IN
odice suffered similarly, both as to his reason
and his accounts with the Government Here
il . case worthy the immediate attention OF
the Civil Service Reform Commission. The
position of DisbursiDg Officer OF the Post
Office Department imposes too great response
bilities on It's occupant, or else there is an
unusually good chance for stealing therein

THE TRIBUNE is extremely anxious TO hear
from The World which party in the Virginia Legislature
was which voted to purchase portrait of Robert E.
Lee" World
The World, lacking the courage to answer
our question, should have the decency not to
misState it, Here it is for the sixth time:
The World having stated that the present
Legislature of Virginia ordered $500 portrait
of the late Confederate General Robert +. Lee
and refused to order one of the late Union
General George H. Thomas-alsO an ilustrious
Virginian-added that each decision was made
by a party vote. THE TRIBUNE thereupon
asked it Which party thus singled out Gen.
Lee for such honor, refusing to extend it also
to Gen. Thomas. This question, The World
burst not answer. Then why should it expose
itself by such glaring Misrepresentation

We must go abroad for news. The London
Times is reported as smoothing the ruttied
feelings of the Canadians by The promise of
American Free Trade "a compensation Tor
the acceptance of the dlstasteful Treaty OF
Washington. The Times says that Free Trade
is rapidly gaining ground in the United
States" We would like to see The Canadians
cheerfully accept the Treaty on the sensible
ground that the interests of small communi-
ties must sometimes give way TO the conye-
nience of powerful States; but to hold out to
the Dominion the false hope Of possible Free
Trade as a salve to wounded local pride would
be ONLY cruel

How long is it since Horace Greeley pro-
nounced the Union League congregation OF block
heads a. World.
AnSWer.-IIe never did; and repeating the
untruth thousand times will not make it a
verify. Ihirty-t0ur (Out of several hundred)
members of the Union League Club united in
a demand that hlr. Greeley should DE disci-
plined for bailing Jefferson Davis. He refused
to answer their citation or attend the meeting
called at their instance, but denounced and
detied them. The Club heard what they had
to offer, and then laid their indictment on the
table by large majority: and there it still
lies; at least, it has never since troubled any
one but its authors. OF course, Mr.. Greeley
characterized as marrow minded blOckheads"
not the great majority who sustained him. but
the small minority who impotently assailed
him, at least one of whom was and is HOtf-
man Democrat.

The peaceful and satisfactory termination OF
the struggle between labOrers and employers
at Washington is gratifying to the friends of
the workingman. The experiment of free
colored labor has been watched by al parties
with great interest and there were not want
ing those ready to seize upon the distorted
reports which came from Washington as evil
dence of the incapacity Of the freedmen as
1aborers. To such there will be disappoint-
ment at the end of the strike.

TUESDAY, DECEMBER u.

Among the bills and resolutions introduced
into Congress, yesterday, lone hundred and
twenty-five in all, were two joint resolutions
proposing amendments to the constitution, one
making uaturalized citizens eligible for the
Presidency and another providing for absolute
free trade and the substitution of direct taxa
ton in its place. The Washington correspou-
dent OF the Baltimore Sun says - Probably
twothirds of these measures will never reap
pear from the committees to which they were
referred The most important of these bills,
we're those introduced iu the House, to carry
out the provisions of the treaty of Washington,
TO create a labor bureau, and those in the Sen
ate to abolish the internal revenue bureau and
to raise the tax on whiskey to eighty cts. But
few meetings of committees will be held before
the recess, which the House voted to commence
on the Dist, so there will be little or no &C.
ton on the eight hundred bills pending before
them"
