THE CASE or BERNSTEIN.

In Nav, 1884, Bernhard Bernstein, reputa-
bic merchant of Chicago and citizen OF the
United States, described in an affidavit before
us as "a gentleman of respectabiGty in society,"
obtained passport from Secretary Seward
and made voyage 70 Europe to visit his
father in Russian Poland. His passport was
duly countersigned at Berlin by both the
Prussan and Russian Minister'S and on MS
arrival in Poland was deposited in the hands
of the Russian Provost Marshal. On the 23th
of October he was arrested at the town or
Izbca Chs fathers residence), without having
committed any ofiense whatever, and was sent
to the common jail, where no was suffered to
remain in the company of thieves and other
malefactors, until his friends succeeded IN OBJ
tanning his release on bail. At the end OF SIX
months the passport which bad been taken
from him was returned, and he was allowed
to return TO the United States. lie never was
tried, and no charge wac ever made against
him except that, having been born on the
soil Of Poland, he had expatiated himself
and become an American citizen.
Mr. Bernstein laid his case before mr. Seward.
who promised that justice should be done blm ;
but no action had been taken when Gen.
Grant came into Office in 1SCo Since then
Mr.. Bernstein has applied again and again Tor
redress. He has sent numerous petitions 10
Secretary Fish; his attorneys have besieged
the State Department for three years; but not
one word of answer has ever been returned To
his memorials and his most earnest appeals
have received no notice whatever from this
supine Administration. Finally he went to
Congress, and his case was brought to the
notice OF the Senate in March last by Mr.
Sumner, but was smothered, of course, IN the
Committee on Foreign Relations, of which the
chairman is Grants Cameron. The story Is
now brought to the knowledge of the Ameri-
can people through an address delivered at
Louisville by Col f.. s. Shorter.
There are tens Of thousands OF naturalned
citizens visiting Europe every year with just
such papers of protection as those held by
Mr. Bernstein. What hope have they that, in
case they should fall into trouble, the Admin
istration of President Grant would come to
their relief, or condescend even to answer
their petitionsf Contrast Grants shameful
neglect of naturaized Americans travelling
abroad with the decided action of former Ad-
ministrations in similar cases. Time was when
no American President would have dared to
disregard a complaint like that of Bernhard
Bernstein; but Gen. Grant believes that the
American people will let him do anything.

L
A correspondent writes TO ask IL THE TRID-
UsB seriously charges that The ~ y Times has sup
pressed news unfavorable to Tweed The correspondent
can Judge from the plain facts stated below none OF
which that journal will pretend to deny.
On Dec 15 1871 william NJ. Tweed arrested in thi,
city ON charge OF felony lie exceedingly aHxiOus
10 keen tine fact secret until be could give bail without
publicity The publisher aud the editor OF The A. "
Times knew OF arrest at o'clock The samo evening
vet their paper next morning contained no announce
mept OF tho fact though The TRIBUNE gave 1T at great
length.
on Dec &c. 1871. William NJ Tweed was publicly sur
rendered by Of bis bondsmen IN public Once, In
which The ~ Y Times had unusual facilities for obtain
ing news. Tweed fed and Kept in hiding for several
days TIE TRIBUNE gave the news in fulli The N. y.
Times omitted all mention Of IT, and subsequently doncd
tbe truth Of the report shielding Tweed all 1t dared a.
tbe time.
On September 9s 1872, Attorney General Barlow gave
Tweed notice that be would try him a. fe.on at the
next oG the Oyer and Terminer. The n. y. I~es
made cnohsf the important fact, and on the very
next day invented Twoed's interest that the
indictments ~ he quasbed because they charged

Forgery, Grand Larceny, and Conspiracy.
Furthermore, 10 Ia D evidence that The y. ]. Tines

THE LAST DEFENSE.

Mr. Blaine is quite right in supposing that
TIE TRIBUNE will not regard his latest
attempt at defending himself an improvement
ON its predecessors. lie does not tell the
truth. when he says we charged him, not only
az Representative but as Speaker, Win tne
Pacific Railroad Eastern Division bribery we
spoke of him as Speaker Blaine, just as we
might say that Gen. Dix, in 1872, serVeu
as Adjutant TO Gen, Brown, Does it follow that
we mean to declare that that precociOus gen.
tlenan had not only become soldier at the
ace of ID, but even o GeneralT TO TO, Mr'
Blaine! If you had case you would not DO
quibbling on points like that. No more w0md
YOU be arguing that because you were
not in Congress when tho original
bill was passed, you could not have been sub
sequently bribed by the Company which that
bill created. Take look at the fac sp'lIe OF
tho entry in your case, elsewhere reproduced
from the certified copy Of the list, and then
get what comfort you may out OF the pretenSe
of your hasty defender here that The TRB-
UNR changed Blair" to Blaine"
The Speaker tries his hand again at the
Credit Mobilier business. This time he says
he never received penny hCretrom. trick
ster, shifty enough to climb out OF window
while Butler was watching for him at the
door, might very well cOntrive to say
of moneys received from Cakes Ames, that
he never received them from the Credit
Mobilier. But we do not care to consider the
Speaker too CuriOusly. He has come to that
point that his unsupported word cannot be
taken against another mans oath. Oakes
Ames's letters are confessed. Therein he sets
forth his use of stock for CorTapting Congress.
Col. McComb swears that he called on Ames
for explanations of the way this stock was
used, and got from him the list of members
to whom it was gwen. Prominent in this list,
sworn to as Ames's list, is the name OF
"Blaine of Maine" We take it that it was
no nearer Blair there than in the earlier list
of which we give elsewhere the fac Simite.
Mr.. Blaine provokes contempt by the effort
to produce the impression that TIE Admins
traton only spent twelve thousand dollars in
the Maine canvass. There Is hardly poll
tician in the State who will not regard this as
a preposterous and grotesque caricature of the
known, admitted truth.

THE PARDON.

Gov. Geary's pardon of Hartranft's peDiten-
tiary friends is at last given to the world. It
is marvellous document 10 behold, and read
ing It we pause in wonder to inquire what
would be thought If Gov. Hoffman, or Parker,
or Jewell, or Clafiin were to put the Great
Seal Of his Commonwealth to such paper.
Pennsylvania certainly is unique. None but
herself can be her parallel, III these respects at
least. 1t il saw as old as Shakespeare that
/" the quality of mercy is not strained" but
this does not apply to Gov. Geary's clemency,
for il ever there was evidence of strong COM
pressure and reluctant acquiescence here we
have it. The Governor knew he was doing a
shabby thing, and does not appear TO advan-
tage in confessing it. He does the work put
upon him clumsily, and incumbers mercy with
u eautionary clause against roguery, which
has no precedent:

pardon granted upon express condition that the

The Grant men Dragged down in Maine
that if tho election had cost them great
deal of money, "they had something to show
for it.n In North Carolina the expedient
of bribery was notoriously resorted to. SO, IN
Florida, q regular assessment of the State
Office holders has been openly levied to defray
the election expenses. Charged with this
moral debauchery, The Florida Union at Jack
sonville, owned by the Postmaster, acknowl-
edges cheerfully the truth of the indictment
in the following shameless and sneering par
agraph:

It's party here has Ocehoders TO and no mem
bers of Congress TO frank s circulars and to see its
opponent. the Republican party enjoy both these lux
uries must be aggravating in the extreme"
We have had tolerably long experience of
political campaigns, but we hardly remember
anything so insolently audacious as this. And
the assessments here so fippantly spoken
of have been regularly extOrted by the Re-
publican State Committee of Florida, as upon

An officer commanding one Of the most i'm
portant forts in our harbOr received lately from
the Chairman of the Grant Committee letter,
evidently written by authority of the powers
that be, calling on him to explain whether
the report was true that he was employing
Greeley men in his work. The officer, with
q manly spirit deserving the highest praise,
replied that. it was his business to get the
work done, to get the best men he could on
the best terms to do 1t, and not to meddle
with politics either on one side or the other,
and that, according to his understanding, the
Chairman bad no moro business than he, the
officer, had to be meddling with any OF his
men. An investigation, however, developed
the feet that majority Of the men employed
were Greeley men, while a majority OF the
foremen said they were for Grant. What is
to be thought of an Administration which
with one hand holds before the public its
promises of Civil Service Reform, and with
the other stOOps to the meanness of attempt
ing thus to pOllute the branches of the Gov
eminent service wherein there has thus far
been some effort to get men employed because
they were fit for their work, and not because
they were good ward politicians Must the

The dedication Of the Soldiers Monument at Pitts

statue of the Color Sergeant masterpiece of our
townsnan, Mr.. Launt Thompson, is one Of the finest
works of memorial art produced in this coun-
try 1t is perfectly zeal figure of Northern sol
dier; young handsome, athletic non commissioned
officer of the kind saw every day in the Union
army. But it is at the same time touching and
inspiring poem Of art and patriotism. It's grace and
finish its poise and lightness. make it delight to
the eyes and it conveys, without the least trick
effort the impression of costly sacrifice which all
such monuments are intended to commemorate.
These were the men through whose death the nation
lives to-day. They not clods raked in by con-
scrptiOn not surplus population dragged from pow
erty to battle. They were who held their lives
precious, who knew precisely what they were fore
going, and went with open, intelligent eyes in the
path of duty with no thought of glory. One of the
same kind was Gen. William +. Bartlett, who, as
Chairman Of the Executive Committee, delivered
the statue to the town. And the chiyalrous and
loyal strain of his nature was never more clearly
shown than in his cordial welcome of Mr.. LOwndes,
South Carolinian officer, whom he had last seen, in
Rebel gray, in the crater at Petersburg. Gentlemen
of this character have better work in the world
than TO stand and make mouths at each other after
the fashion of the Philadelphia Platform, for the
rest Of their lives If the war is not over then the
split blood all shed in vain and soldiers nionu-
ments are a mockery
