The Washington Republican of Tuesday
saps: -.
The Investigation into the accounts of Gen.
srai Daniel L.. Stanton. defaulting Collector
ofithe Fifth Maryland District, is being pro-
ceeded with by Supervisor Fulton with much
care, and the deficit is found to be greater than
at 6rss supposed, aud it may even reach a
much larger amount than is now noted, as the
inquiry is not nearly completed. There is
considerable feeling in Baltimore in RELATION
TO this alleged deialcation, as General Stanton
has great many friends amang the best and
most influential class of her citizens, and it is
asserted by many of bis friends that he is not
criminally responsibefoF the present condition
OF his accounts as Collector of Internal Rev.
enue. They assert that his deputies are re-
sponsible for the present condition of his affairs
sndsthat it is to their dishonesty that he owes
bis present trouble. The legal investigation
will take place before Commissioners Rogers,
in Baltimore, on. Tuesday. when the true facts

are lively break-downs that make an audience
laugh, and there are sad and sorrowful break
downs that make the kindhearted grieve. To
the latter class belongs the excavation of body
and mind which is usually called general de-
bility," or nervous weakness" and which,
when neglected, too often terminates in atrophy
and death. A wholesome medicated stimulant
is the one thing needed in cases of this descrip-
ton, and science and experience unite in poin-
ting to PLANTATION BITTERs as the true specific.
The fact that it combines the properties of an
invigorant with those of a regulator and alter
ative in exactly the proportions necessary to
produce radical change in the tone of the sys-

tive organs, is an unanswerable argument in its
favor az a general restorative.

MINISTER TO RUSSIA.

: MINISTER TO RUSSIA.
Since it has been ascertained that Governor
Curtain has forwarded his resignation to the
State Department there is quite scramble OF
America loyal sons for the position thus made
vacant. They all bring recommendations well
endorsed, proving that each applicant is well
qualified for the place. The recommendations
are all received by the Department with good
grace, and the applicants. assured that their
cases will be considered at an early day, this is
generally the end of them without their claims
are pushed by some influential person. There
are any quantity of rumors afoat as to who
the lucky man will be, but it is impossible to
judge from the long list of names who the man
will be, we will not know until the President
sends the name into the Senate, as Grant keeps
his own secrets.
Hon. Francis Thomas, of Maryland, has been
confirmed as Minister Plenipotentiary and En-.
voy Extraordinary to Peru. Mr.. Thomas is
well qualified for the position, having for long
time been in official life, and understands the
rotine of public business. He was member
ofthe House of Representatives during the war
AT LAST
The Government has concluded to interfere in
behalf of the American residents in the ever
beautiful isle, and have sent an energetic pro-
test to the Spanish Government against the &C

Howard to penal settlement on the coast oil
Africa. The protest is written in very decided
language and gives the Spaniards to understand
that our Government looks for the release Of
the Doctor, or some one will get hurt.
Senior Roberts, the old Spanish Minister, re-
tired few days ago, and handed over the af-
fairs of his Office to one of the attaches of the
legation until the new Minister, Admiral Jose
Palo. Y Bernet, presents his credentials, which
will be in few days. The Admiral is now in
town.
s THE CIVIL SERVICE
Advisory Board will make its final report to
the President during this week. The report is
now in the hands of the public printer, and
will be ready for distribution in a few days.
From what hear the report is dead docu-
nent, and will never be acted upon by either
House of Congress. Our law makers like civil
service reform, but when it takes their influ-
enee away they think it is carrying the joke too
far, and prefer to dodge the question In this
way the subject will be disposed of, and buried
in the-rub bage of one of the document rooms

royiew of the trade and business OF Charles

with great care, and will challenge CON-

receive the attention that their increasing
Importance demands.
The annual reviews of The News have
always very wide extra circulation among

Homo LILO In the United States.

The tables OF the late census have in
many respects social and moral sisniti'
cauce. For example, they show thai there
are in the United States, in round numbers,
$500, 900 families, with an average OF near
ly six to each family, while in 1860 the aver
age number to each family was only five
and quarter. Home life, then, is on Tie
increase, which almost, OF course, shows on
increase of prosperity and comfort to in
dividuals, and OF stability and mor.. " to
the country. It is plain, however, that o
great many families live in boardlng-houses
and hotels, or occupy tenement-houses to-
eether; for, while there are 7,5OC, 900 fami-
lies, the number OF dwellings is put down
as only little over 1000, 600.

In Sleeps Clothing.

The curt lin has fallen upon the lrIghtiul
farce which has been played at Columbia,
during the past week, for the ediacatlon and
at the expense OF the people OF South Caro-
lima. Looking back at the shameiui say

tickets which they have presented Tor popa-
,or suDnort. we are forced to the CONCLUSION
urrSru puuCU vuv eOOssf'oJ
rules our State more thoroughly deserving
the distrust and contempt OF honest men
than that which now seeks to cloak ils greed
for place and plunder under the mantle OF
Reform. The cry OF "Stop Thiet!" comes
too late to be regarded as sincere. The peo-
pie can very well afford to believe all that
the virtuous Boilers have said OF the degra.
datlon and crimes Of their late political
associates; but they cannot forget that the
Inns OF most of these new Apostles OF Reform
remained sealed as long as there was dol
lar in the Treasury to divide, and until oil
hope had vanished that they themselves
could lead the corrupt crew whom they are
now so indignantly denouncing. We say 10
Messrs. Orr, Corbin & Co. that the white
taxpayers OF the State, without whose ac-
tive cooperation they are powerless, take
no stock in their ingenious little game OF
Reform. s.FIne words butter no parsnps, "
and, il these Republican saints can give US
nothing more substantial than the cheap
promises and glilterirg generallties OF their
platform, we are at loss to see wherein
they excel the sinners whom they have left.
The State Treasury is hardly likely to suffer
less, II placed at the mercy OF new and
hungry gang, than frcm the rogues who are
already gorged with puuder. We may not
be able to stop the organized robbery OF the
public Golfers; but we con, at least, decline
to take any part in furnishing the keys to
men who admit that they have for years
| been the silent associates, if not the accom- :
plices,. OF the most shameless thieves OF The
century.
