TOO MUCH EXPOSURE.

1t has been remarked that the Grant men
in Congress have done every thing they
could to stave off every investigation that
has been proposed. There are good and
sufficient reasons on their part for this
course. The Washington correspondent
of the st. Louis Times gives the wherefore
in bis letter of the 18th inst. as follows:
"The anxiety of the administration party
to have this session of Congress concluded
is heart-rending. The whole party lives
day after day in mortal fear of some new
exposure. Every henchman of the great
ruling power is conscious of the weakness
of his position, for he does not know when
some new explosion may take place in one
or another Of the departments laying open
additional fraud and corruption. In all
the history ofthe government so much ofthis
sort of thing was never before known,
and a distinguished Republican mem-
Der of the House told me to-day
that he had reason to believe
that all the stealings under all
the administrations since the organization
of the government, would not equal in
amount what has been stolen from the peo-
pie during Grants three years. Thus far
the paid lackeys of the administration in
Congress have succeeding very well in hid
ing great deal of this from the people,
even in the face of the most persistent eff
forts to expose it. An official whitewash-
ing goes long way, but even some of the
Presidents lackeys are brought to confess
that they cannot stretch this thing much
farther, and declare the greatest safety is in
speedy adjournment of Congress"

The Banner is inclined to think that the
UNION AND AMERICAN might possibly mis-;
represent the Reunion and Reform Asso-
citation. Not so. We understand the Nash
vile Re-U. and Ref. Association to be in
favor of beating Grant, but in order to do
so they regard it absolutely essential that
they shall first disorganize the Democracy.
Their primary object is therefore to dis
organize the Democracy. That being &C
complished, their first step is successfully
taken. Where it will lead, who can tell?
1t is well enough that it should be known
that this Re-U. and Reef. Associa-
ton is bent, as the primary con
dition Of their successful existence, upon
the disorganization of the Democracy.
Again, the Re-U. and Ref. Convention
at Cincinnati is not the Liberal Republican
Convention, which viii nominate. candi-
dates for the Presidency and Vice Presi-
dency.
We see that the Banner has published
the names of some as delegates to this side
show at Cincinnati, the Re-U. and Ref.
assemblage.
We have understood that Messrs. Foote,
Colyar and Spurlock have been on the
streets several days soliciting their fellow
citizens to permit the use of their names to
this convention. The names Of some they
have down willingly; some unwiIlingly.
Let the signers remember that
they stand recorded as favoring the
Nashville Re-U. and Ref. Association
which favors the DISCRIMINATION of the
Democratic party.

Iris estimated that 100000 worth of
fuels burned yearly in the United States
Locomotives consume over 100000 cords
OF wood annually, and oveI $1O000O,O 900
worth Of sawed lumber is yearly employed
in building and in manufactures. -Four
millions Of acres Of forest disappear every
year before the axe to supply all these de-
mands. In view Of this immense desuuC-
tion of timber in this country, Mr.. Akin
son of Whiteside county, Illinois, writes to
the New York Tribune in which he takes
the ground that the tbest. way to protect
American forests would be to place all lun-
Der and manufactured wood on the free list.
Ever since 1861 a tariff of twenty per cent.
has been imposed on hewn and sawed tim
Der. The effect Of this has been to keep the
immense forests of Canada intact while it
has stimulated and fastened the destruction
Of our American forests. 1t is very clear to
Mr.. Atl1nson's mind, as it must be evident
to any person Of intelligence, that the best
way to protect our own trees would be to
repeal the laws that encourage their destruc-
ton. -

PROCURING RECOMMENDATTONs.

The Washington correspondent Of the
Cincinnati Gazette (Republican) tells how
the Grant men tried to procure recon-
mendations from Congressman in favor of
their man, to be forwarded to the New York
Grant meeting, and how they did not sue
coed so well. He says under date of April
II:
"There is considerable comment here to-
night in Congressional circles, over the pol
icy pursued in the House to-day to get mem
bers to sign their names to papers urging
Grants denomination at Philadelphia, said
papers to be thence telegraphed to New
York, and read at the Republican meeting
there tonight. These papers were made
out early in the morning, and placed in the
hands of we'll known administration Repre-
sentatives from each State, with a view to
being subsequently signed by all the Repub-
lican members of each State delegation. The
Massachusetts delegation refused point
blank to sigu any such statement on the
ground that it was entirely uncalled for,
and that Congressman had no business to
attempt to influence nominations in this
way. Several State delegations signi6ed
their willingness to the effect that they
would sign any paper plegding their support
to the nominee of the Philadelphia Conven-
ton, but would 60 no further. Five Ohio
members would not sign the paper for that
State for any purpose of this kind. The
Louisiana delegation also refused. On be-
half of South Carolina, Elliott, the colored
delegate, announced his opposition to
Grant, and said that as the head Of the del
egatiOn from that State to the Philadelphia
Convention, he expected to vote against
Grants nomination. In the Illinois dele
CATION two members refused to have any
thing to do with the business whatever.
No paper was presented to Gov. Blair, as
his views in this connection are too well
understood by his colleagues. The same
is true of FarnsWorth, Of Illinois. Butler
denounced the movement as unwise and
impOlitic, and as one which would be con-
strued by the opponents Of the administra-
ton to SAVIOR Of executive dictation."
The New York Tribune of the 10Th inst.
says: sit is hardly worth while to waste
words on the paltry attempt of the Grant
managers in Washington to commit Con-
gressmen to the Presidents denomination.
1t is beneath notice as a specimen of politi-
cal fnesse, and resulted only in the parade
of such a meager array Of names that the
cause of the President was damaged rather
than helped. 1t seems that there were
seventy-four men who were, under various
pretexts, seduced into putting their names
to paper. The much-desired one hundred
cannot be reached"
The Washington correspondent Of the
Tribune says: THE whole project absolute
ly failed, and it is doubtful if even thirty
names could he obtained in Congress to a
paper declaring the first choice Of the sign
ers for the next President to be Gen. Grant.
So the Administration seems to have lost
considerable strength in Congress since the
military ring and their organin Washington
attempted to make list Of one hundred
members in favor of Grant"

PROTESTING.

Even Radicals are occasionally forced to
speak out in behalf Of State rights. The
Radicals Of Pennsylvania, who attempted
to gerrymander that State in the interest of
their party, having failed to get the Gov
ernor to sign the bill after it had gone
through the Legislature, are now appealing
to Congress to pass a bill apportioning
Pennsylvania into Congressional districts,
but the Philadelphia Press Forney's paper)
protests against Congress doing any such
thing, as that duty belongs to the State;
and now the Boston Advertiser (RadicaD
enters its protest as follows:
"Therc is no single reason that can be
urged In favor Of such a course; there are a
score against It. The States understand
the necessities Of their people and the har-
mouy or otherwise Of theiT several sections,
better than Congress can, When appOr-
tionmeut bills are enacted by Congress, we
may expect TO see communicating run mad
and new appointments rs frequently as
the House of Representatives goes through
the process Of drawing seats. To i'm
nose such 9 difficult task upon Congress
would be to add new burden to those
which are already too numerous, and to
put into the hands Of the enemy a weapon
which will be sure, sooner or later, to be
used against the inventor. The constitu-
tionality Of such a law, fortunately, is eX-
ceedingly doubtful, and if it should ever be
passed, we hope for strict construction OF
the clause allowing Congress to make or
III y n. sv.rr to
and manner of electing representatives"
That reads very much as if it came from
Democratic paper, and yet it is the out
giving Of a Radical organ. Such papers
thought it was very nice while their party
was upsetting everything in the South, and
reconstrUcting these States in the interests
of that party. They did not seem to think
they were sanctioning an invention that
