that there was heavy defalcatlon In the Thirty
second district and that ether he they are de-
fauiters. The declaration Is boldly made that there
is q family feud In the administration, to which
this smotherng OF internal revenue frauds Is to be
attributed. There Is little cordially between the
Secretary Of the Treasury ana the purer members OF
the Cabinet ana nothing 10 common between Mr.
Boutwell, and the President. In most administra-
tions the Secretary to the Treasury has aspred to
the succession OF the Presidency, and Bout
well ID suspected Of such design. 1t is probable the
want OF cordiality, II nos OF harmony Ii due to
deeper and more personal causes Boutwell, made
an attempt to Investigate the affairs OF prominent
revenue Official as Baltimore, but In attempting it ne
offended Creswell and was banked by Pleasonlon.
How much similar influences have TO do with the
case OF Shook, and how many other cases OF ike
character there are on the books OF the Treasury

certain upon trustworthy information that Shocks

"defacauon" occurs and where no legal proceed

THE DROUGHT.

WAR ITEMS.


On Thursday. the 10Th, the Partisan
Army under General Trochu attempted
a sortie in force, covered by the guns of
Fort VaIerien. The French troops seem
to have fought with desperate valor, but
were nevertheless disastrously repulsed.
Their loss was so heavy that General
Trochu requested an armistice of 48
hours to remove the wounded and bury
the dead. At the close of the fighting,
which lasted till dark, the troops on both
sides remained in their former positions.
The Parisians seem to have been
greatly disheartened by the repulse of
this sortie, which is represented to have
been their forlorn hope. The following
day the Council of Defense deposed
General Troehu, but, alarmed at so
bold a step. Immediately reinstated him.
The bonbardment of the city contin-
ues steadily and with terrible effect
Several fires in the town of St. Denis
and also within the walls of Paris have
been observed.
On Thursday (2oth) the french Army
of the North under General Faidherbe
was attacked by Won Goeben in its po-
sitions before St. Quentin and thorough
ly routed. Ten thousand prisoners and
six guns were captured by the victorious
Germans. The French retreated in
great confusion toward the Belgian bor-
der, evacuatng the towns of St. Quen-
Tin and Cambria which were immediate
