1t would seem that nagging and de-
votion to so-called Liberal Reform go
together. There is no end to the COM
plants of these Reform newspapers that
Gen. Grant and his over-worked Cabinet
officers, when their present duties are per-
even said that after working faithfully and
cheerfully through the session with Con-
gress as a body, they have fled the face of
the individual Congressman seeking an
interview. The Tribune, the other day,
reproduced some snarling of this kind from
disreputable source. 1t is nearly Mid
summer, and the season is ten days earlier
and ten degrees hotter in Washington than
it is here; yet because the President and
some members of the Cabinet have gone
to the seaside, or to their own rural homes,
they are held up to the public as neglected.
of their duties, and spoken of as if they
were truant schoolboys. The same thing
has been commonly done in this country
heretofore, and is done by hard-worked
officials the world over. Our President and
his advisers can communicate and be COM
municated with by telegraph, and the Pres
ident himself can be in Washington, if he
is needed there, in six hours. But what Of
that? Shall an opportunity for nagging
fling be lost /? Such fault-finding is of the
pettiest kind. 1t has one value, however
it shows to what straits Gen. Grants
opponents are reduced when they wish to
charge him with misconduct.-N. Y. Times.

The New York Times charges-and
the charge has not been, we believe, denied
that there is a bargain between Mr.. Gree
ley and the Tammany ring, in pursuance
of which they support him. Through this
bargain "Governor Hoffman expects to
get the denomination for Governor, and
the Greeleyites and Fentontes will sup
port him, provided he uses his influence in
favor of Greeley for President. The Ma
tion, always careful in its statements, also
asserts that Mr.. Greeley is daily contract
ing obligations to the Tammany politicians
which he will be forced to discharge by
quartering them on the Treasury, in the
event of his election. 1t is certain the
class of men who are making themselves
prominent on his behalf in New York are
not in the habit of working for a living.

become a fashionable thing, and,
like all kindred events, such as
births and marriages, is celebrated
with f stive proceedings. The West

kind recently There was large
gathering. and the newly-ma lie
widow received the cOngratuI Iatlons

pleasure as would a newl Y welded

A handsome divorce cake was one
of the features Of the occasion. 1t
