one Of his vulgar and blasphemous

Of Congressman Beck, of Kentucky,

The Radical majority in Congress
has lost another member by accident.
That loyal scalawag, Col. VIM. b.
Stokes, of Tennessee, has been con
vicled of high crimes and misdemean.

convicted under the act of Congress
OF 1858, which provides that any SEN

who shall act as agent, or aid or assist
in the prosecution of claims for com.

ceiving gratuity or share in such
claims, shall be deemed guilty of a
misdcmeanor, and ,on conviction, shall
bc punished by fino not exceeding
$4,000, or imprisonment not exceeding
one year. 1t was shown that during
the late war n military company,
known rs Beatty's Independent Scouts
was raised in Tenbress county, Ten.
nessee, and after the war had closed,
Stokes secured the passage of n bill by
Congress to pay the men, receiving
for his services, tho sum of $4,000.

payment, contained l02 names He

visions Of this law shall forfeit his membership 10

on the part OF prominent Republicans
OF tho State of New York to secure a
reconciliation between the Greeley
Fenton faction and Grant has resulted
in an ignominious failure. The Presi-
dent would not listen to any terms
whatever, but demanded an 'uncondi

thinks he ia yet military commander

THE Ohio Reunion and Reform Association
is Western association which includes both

mans. Its power has TINS far been exercised
against legislation for the observance of tt
Sabbath and the suppression of intemperan
and many of its leading men were unsucces'
revolutionists in Germany before they fl
an asylum here They hold that their
countrymen should maintain here thei
guage and their nationality as politica
er, and thus remain aliens rather than
citizens. They cannot allow that there is an.
thing American that Germans can assimilate
with, and they absolutely speak of themselves
as though they were comforting great favor in
directing our politics. One of their leaders,
Col Frederick Hecker, said recently at Chicago
in public speech: "We fought for freedom
of thought, and now receive Sabbath laws and
Cincinnati, with the earnest intention that it
must there become different" .-s,
