The people of Maine have had plenty of
Grassland visitors about this tme-a military
company from Lynn, Mass, at Augusta, an
other from Charlestown, Mass, at Portland,
another from Worcester, Mass, at Bangor, and
hook and ladder company, also from Charles
town, at Portland. The Maine folk dc not i'll
the least seem behind-hand in festive welcome,
Notwithstanding the imperious restrictions of
the Maine law, which probably doesn't suffer
much from the incursion, as most of the invad-
ers doubtless came armed for the visit. There
was of course, a great deal of speechmakIng,
music, marching, and counter-marching, and,
upon the WHOLE there seems to be no reason
why this system of Summer pleasurng should
not, if kept within due bounds as to behavior
aud expense, have humanizing tendency
Tribune.
Certainly, very humanizing. Not only does
our scenery 'whip the universe" if we may
revive that Pogramism. but we are prepared
to humanize people who are so unfortunate
as to live elsewhere at trifing expense and
to insure their good behavior.

TROUBLE IN THE INTERNAL REVENUE
OFFIcE.-A Washington correspondent of the
New York Times gives the following account
of the difficulty said to have arisen between
Secretary Boutwell, and Commissioner Pleas
anton:
The air is full of statements and counter
statements and explanations of those who
profess to give one side or the other about the
Internal Revenue Office trouble. The real facts
in the case have not yet been published, but
they may be expected in few days, as well
as a result of good deal of Importance which
the facts will produce. The relations which
have existed between Secretary Boutwell, and
Commissioner PleasantoD, personally and Oh
ficiaily, which are no better known today than
they have been for months gone by, are
brought up, and purposely, to all appearance,
to deprive the question at issue of its real i'm
portaao0, aad mako it seem a personal quarrel
between the head of a department and his
subordinate. Mr.. Boutwell, lis very retcent,
and has not told his griels, if he has them, to
anybody. One side OF the story is told, by
those who are earnest supporters of Gen. Plea
santon, and The other side by those vflo ap-
pear TO oppose him rather than to take up the
love for Secretary Boutwell,.
This would seem to indicate that the com
motion was confined to the Internal Revenue
Office, and that in the conflict if there is one,
Secretary Boutwell, is the master of the situa-
ton. This is probably true; but still ii a
change in the administration of the Revenue
Bureau should take place, the history of its
causes will show that it was not Mr.. Bout
well who compelled it, The denial of the
Railroad Company that advance news was re-
ceived by it, which was sent from here FRI
day night, accords with what was said in
these dispatches the day before, that the
transaction, whatever it was, was probably a
a private speculation only. The attorney
who was engaged in it, however, proiessed TO
act for the road. That there was a proposi-
tion discussed, not to put it stronger, touch
ing the disclosure of the decision of the tax
case in advance of its official promri,,sssstion.
las not been denied. 1t is due to Col. Thom-
son to say that he claims to be able to show
that he was acting in the matter as Govern
ment Detective anu in the interest of the De-
partment.
