Daily national Republican. (Washington City [D.C.]) 1870-1872, 1872-04-26

A few dSys ago the name OF Colonel John
II. Tagqart vas mentioned as one Nof the
Phnadelphla dNssatlshed Republicans who
would be q delegate to the Cincinnati con.
veutiop. Mr.. TARgart, In reply to this re-
poit Of his detection, says, in bis able aud
spirited journal, the Sunday Times;
A national convsntion Of dissatlshed Repul'
iloans has been called 10 meet IN Cincinnati on
Tor Prssldsnt and Viee President, In oppOsliion
to the regular Republican Convention, which
meets In Philadelphia IN June, when President
urant Wi undoubtedly be renominated. A
Philadelphia correspondent Of the New York
Tribuns, q Few days since, published long list
Of so-called "dslepatesn 10 the Cinclnnad con.
vsntion from Pennsylvania, among whom were
many prominent politicians, some Of whom have
not been In sympathy with the Republican
party for years, and several puhlishers of news.

The principal ory OF the gentlemen who
will meet In Cincinnati 10 the beginning Of
next month is an attack upon oflee-holders.
Their platform aud presses are full Of In
dietments against those who have been Sc
lsctsd to administer the affairs Of the Gov
erumeut. We are told that the Philadelphia
Convention will be an ofiice-holders' conyen-
ton, which will obey the executive command
and renomlnate President Grant. II Il daily
dlnned Into our ears that to farther 'Nhe pet
scheme OF a denomination" an army Of on
olals Ia maintained at the public expense,
whose duty Is TO run conventions and eau
cusea that they are chosen with a single eye
70 their ability and talents 10 this direction,
aud ruthlessly removed when they fall to
fulall the expectations OF their masters.
Now, mark how plain tale will put all
this downs In the first place, the number Of
ofilce-holders In the country ut the present
time Ia less than IL was one yosr ago; less
than It has been at any period since 1863.
When Andrew johnson was President there
were ln this city alone al least five thousand
more officials than there are at present. The
incoming Of President Grants admlnlstra-
ton was q signal for general reduction In
every department Of tho Government. We
have not the exact figures at hand, but we
are confident that II any one In Congress
will call upon tho Secretary OF the Treasury
for q statement, Il will be shown that In
his Department alone there have been up
wards Of two thousand reductions since the
9Th OF March, 1889. Recently one thousand
clerks were dropped In single month, re-
sulting In a saving to the Government OF over
$1,000 per annum. We believe that We
are within the truth when we say that ln the
Internal Revenue Bureau the reduction all
over the country has been more than twenty
Eve per cent. The consolidation Of the
collection districts by Mr.. Delano just be-
fore he was made Secretary Of the Interior
created reduction In the higher offices
which certainly has not helped the poll tlcal
situation so far as denomination is con-
cerned, but has had exactly the opposite
effect.
Look at the other Departments OF the Gov
ernment The army has been brought down
80 low that half the regiments are OF full;
hundreds Of officers have been put on the re-
tired list; four or five buildings, each one Al
large rs the War Department proper, have
been closed, and their occupants dismissed
In the navy the same work Of retrenchment
and reform has been carried out. A larg'
number Of officers Of the higher grades hAy,
been sent into retirement; the force In thu
navy yards has been cut down; the navy ha
been 40 much reduced that there Is scarcely
anything left Of H. except ships without sail

A CNCISSATI dispatch, In one Of the New
York journals OF yesterday, says;
"FredoTick Douglass, aud fourteen color cd
men from Louisiana, will attend the conyen'
tlOn."
We are Inclined to think there Is some mis-
take in this, and that an injustice has been
done to Mr.. Douglass by the statement thai
he h going To Cincinnati. He has Just re-
tarned from Louisiana, and 10 the last Issue
OF his paper, Nelo National Era, his position
10 unmistakably defined as follows
"Ths main object Of his attendance upon the
New Orleans o clnventiOn, aud OF his oGnyeTsa-
lions with leading oolOred mon OF the South,
was 70 impress them with tho conviction that
upon the union and success OF the Republican
party depend the conservation Of all that Ia

since the waTI that In a word, the triumph
Of the Republican party In the persons
of its candidates 10 DO nominated 10 PhilA.
delphia means peace and safety TO the
newly .snfrAnehlsed people OF the republic; that
the Division and defeat of that party BY the Cin
cinnAu convention, or any other appliances,
mean, aud can only mean, tho loss and ruin ol
all, or nearly all, We have thus far obtained
that personal devotion to Charles Sumner lin
which Mr.. Douglass Ia not behind the fOremOst)

TEE LETTER Of MIR, Adams, which we
printed yesterday morning on the ques ton
OF bis possible nomination for the Presidency
At Cincinnati, Is yarlOusly commented upon
by the newspapers. The Times thinks that
"Mr. Adams has not very high opinion OF
the Cincinnati movement, aud evidently re-
CARDS their professions as something neither
nsh nor flesh" The Tribune believes that
1t is not the letters Of politician, and that 1t
may not better his chances Cor the Cincinnati
nomination." while the World regards It as
''ths sfiusion OF q statesman who scorns 10
weigh duty against advantage"

The life Of Dr.. Rafhes, Of Liverpool
has the following "a young lady
the daughter ofthe owner Of the house
was addressed by a man who, though.
agreeable to her, was disliked by he,
father. Ot course, he would not con-
sent to their union, and she determined
to elope. The night was fixed, the
hour came, he placed the ladder to the
window, and in few minutes she was
in his arms. They mounted double
horse, and were soon at some distance
from the house. After a while the
lady broke silence by saying, well,
you see what a proof l have given you
Of my affection; I hope you will make
me good husband dc was a surly
fellow, and grutay answered, perhaps
l may, and perhaps not" She made
him no reply, but after a silence Of
some minutes she suddenly exclaimed,
oh, what shall We do? I have left
my money behind me in ny ROOM
Them said he, I'VE must 90 back and
fetch it, They were soon sgaiu at the
house, the ladder was again placed, the
lady remounted, while the ill.natured
lover waited below. But sho delayed
to come, aud so he gently called, Ars
you cou.ins!' when she looked out
