like TO see fair play especially asia Greeleyite has
called my attention TO the statement in the Spy,
claiming on its authority that "Grant man"
had backed OUT have visited the ''clerk"
who held the forfeit money and learned the ex-
act facts of the case. He, Mr.. v, says, that,
SO far as he knows, the statement of
the Gazette is correct except the Gree
ley man came down from $1,000 against
5000 to $500 even. The Grant man de-
posted $50 as forfeit money until he could
check from home, and the Greeley man drew
check on an Albany bank Tor 5000 and asked
the ''clerk" 10 put stamp on it. This the clerk
refused 10 do, and told him that he considered
"tHe stamp J00S north more thai. the check"
which superstition subsequent inquiry proved to
be well founded. The Grant man left his forfeit
money until the next day to give II, G.'s sup
porter fair chance to produce his funds in
satisfactory form; and, as he failed TO do so,
and the man did not wish to place his money
against that class of checks, he withdrew his
forfeit money, which he of course could not have
done had the Greeleyte come to time, and then
went about his business.
Hoping that you will be willing to set this
straw" in an upright position, remain,
Yours, very truly, A. TANNER.

Norwich and Worcester railroad Another
workman named Thomas Burke was holding up
the draw bar Of the same car. A locomotive
ran slowly up the track, and striking against

draw bar would have fallen upon him and
inflicted serious if not fatal injuries.

Radical Royalty.

The Patriot of Washington city tells
the true story When it says:
1t has been our boast that tho Chief
Magistracy of the Republic is civil
dignity, maintained at small cost, and
presents a striking contrast to the
kingly offices OF tho Old World. All
this was once truo, but unfortunately
il no longer exists We have been
gradually drifting away from the plain
practices of the ancient time adopting
tho habits of the monarchial system,
aud cultivating q pomp wholly incon-
sistent with free and pure institutions.
Everything about the Executive Man
sion begins to put on regal airs, and,
instead of the honored simplicity Of
the fathers, there is substituted pre-
tentions parade which strikes and re-
pels the most ordinary observer.
The actual necessities for the care
and convenience OF the White House
are not really any greater now than
they wero ten years ago. But the
expenditures have been constantly
augmented, under one pretcxt or an
other, until it has become one OF the
most extravagant establishments in
the world, and far exceeds the annual
cost Of many Of the grandest palaces
in Europe. According to the artiul
manner in which tho appropriations
are made and used, the President is
almost entirely relieved Of household
expenses, and is enabled to pocket his
salary of s25,0O0 a year as so much
clear profit. Servants and supplies
are covered up, and other things are
provided on . scale entirely unknown
even to recent experience.
The following summary Of expendi-
lures, which extends over three-quar-
ters Of century, shows the enormous
outlay for keeping up the Presidential
Mansion, and the rate of progress
tor that time. During Mr. Buchanan's
administration the cost was $4,000,
while under Gen Grant il has reached
s323,S34! The items are classified
under the names of furniture, repairs,
fuel, attendance, grounds and green
house, fences, stables, and contingent
expenses, but, it thoroughly sifted
they would be found TO cover more
domestic objects. That money car
DO .hus illegally diverted has beer
shown by the erection of tho Presi
dents stables Costing some $4,000,
out of the appropriation made for the
new Department of State, The secrc
taries and clerks Of the President arr
