WASHING TON, j une 1.-The Louisiana
delegation came over in full force from
Philadelphia this morning, urging the
President not to remove Casey from the
Collectorship at New Orleans. The
President reserved his decision. The
delegation also called on Secretary
Boutwell,.
The President this morning approved
the bill authorizing the Secretary of
War to make certain appointments in
the Quartermaster Department. lie

Senators Buckingham, Howe, Pratt
and Stewart to-day made report from
the Committee on Retrenchmont, in
which they examine at length the
affairs of the New York Custom House
They exonerate President Grant from
any agency in procuring the general
order. They say that Mr.. Leet got q
letter from the President recommending
him as COOL business man but that the
President was in no wise responsible
for Mr.. Leet's securing the general
order business. The firm Of Leet IL
Stocking showed great business capacity
and honesty; that ont OF several mil.
lion dollars worth of goods which
passed through their establishment no
loss ever occurred. They also take
the ground that the steamship
companies should have nothing to do
with the general order business.
They also say that the compromise Of
suits which was made resulted in ad-
vantage rather than detriment to the
revenue. They condemn the passing
of passengers baggage, and the COM
pensation given by merchants to inspec-
tors for passing goods, and say that the
Secretary OF the Treasury has issued
an order prohibiting the same. They
exouorate Messrs. Babcock and Borton,
saving that nothing whatever was
shown in the testimony TO prove that
either of these gentlemen were In any
manner connected with the general
order business.
Prominent members of the House
say that that body will not consent to
an extension Of the session under any
circumstances.
In the Cabinet session to-day no i'm
portant business was transacted. The
treaty business remained in the same
condition as mentioned in these
dispatches on Sunday night.

The Fremont Messenger, Of the Both,
says that Joseph Newkirk lines in
Seneca county. He is farmer and
has a vineyard. He is plain going
man and don't know much about the
laws enacted by the Radical Congress.
Mr.. Joseph Newkirk made wine out of
his grapes, and had some twenty
barrels or more slowed away in his
cellar. A neighbor' was sick; wine
was recommended; Mr.. Joseph New.
kirk was applied to and generously
filled demUohn for his neighbor. He
would not charge anything, but the per.
son who came after it could not bear
to see Newkirk give his property away,
30 he threw down some money and left.
Newkirk had NO dealers license. He
didn't want to deal. He only performed
q ighborly act, which, in Democratic
times, was commendable instead OF
crime. The lob was put up on him.
The next day Cleveland officer came
and confscated the fruits OF his labor.
His wine has gone where the wootbine
twineth and government officers steal
and riot. So much for the beauties Of
Radical laws and Grant officials. The
sueak revenue law is a disgrace to any
civilized country and burning shame
to q republic.
