existing contracts will be recommended and
insisted upon.

Special to the Cincinnati Commercial.
NEW York, July GA Tribune re-
porter called upon Gen. Alfred Pleasonton
and obtained the following statement:
About two weeks after entering upon the
duties of the Office of Commissioner Of In
ternal Revenue at Washington in January,
1871, Gen. Pieasonton had an interview
with President Grant. In the course OF the
conversation the President introduced the
San Domingo question, and, remarHng
that be understood Senator Schurz was OPP
posed to the treaty, asked Gen. Pleasontou
to see Senator Schurz and tell him that II
he would call at the White House the
President would be able to place the San
Domingo matter in a satisfactory light, and
could remove his objection to the scheme.
In further conversation with the PRESIDENT,
Gen. Pleasonton was led to understand
the President would, in exchange for Sena-
tor Schurz's support of the San Domingo
treaty, accord him share of public patron
ACE. Gen. PIeasonton says his impressions
on this point are very distinct and unmlS-
taxable. Thus authorized, Gen. Pleasonton
saw Senator Schurz and informed nim OF
the Presidents wish to see him: senator
Schurz replied that he would call at any
time he might designate for an interview.
PIeasonton saw the Presiden, the next DAY,
and informed him of the Senator's reply, at
which he expressed bis qualification, and
said that he would send for Senator Schurz
in a few days.
The interview was not had. Some weeks
later. when it seemed assured that Sena-
tor Schurz opposed the treaty, Gen. Pleas-
ontoi, received a memorandum slip from
the President directing the removal OF Sen
ator Schurz's brother-iD-law, Jussen, from
the Office of Collector Of internal Revenue
at Chicago al once. The unusual nature
of this imperative removal attracted Zen
PIeasonton's attention, and he asked the
President to suspend action for some
weeks, but the President said that ne re,
gretted that he could not do SO, as he hao
PROMISED to remove the man at once A
new appointment was made on the recon-
mendation of Senator Logan ard Con-
oressman Farwell. This action impressed
Cen. Pleasonton with the belief that politE
cal patronage was considered OF more ina
portance at that time than the immediate
necessities of the pubic service.
Subsequently, and shortly before Ten
Pleasonton,s departure for Europe, Senator
Sehurz addressed him a letter asking foi
his recollection and impressions OF the con,
versatjon In which the President desired
him 10 caIl upon the Senator and open ne
yotiations "a mentioned. Gen. Pieasontor
responded to the letter which senator
Sehurz has made public.

A FEW reasons why they Should have the
n preference over all others:
/. Wheeler Wilson's Sewing Machine is
much simpler than any Of tho others; re-
quiring less than half the amount OF ma
chinery.
2. AS the result Of this simplicity thie ma.
chine is much less liable than the others to
get ont Of repair.
8. Another rcsult OF this simplicity il
creator durability.
4. Another result IL less friction and, con-
sequently, greater ease and rapidity Of mo-
lion, with less noise
g. And greatest OF all, that it 1scs no Shut
tic, and makes the lock stitch.
II is tho cheapest to buy the best. Buy the
machine that has jnstly. fairly and honora-
bly, won reputation and independence
against strong aud bitter competition. For
more than twenty years has the Wheeler h
Wilson not only stood first and foremost. but
now stands tho unIivallcd Sewing Machine OF
