4 SUFFICIENT ANSWER.

One of the charges made against Presi-
dent Grant is that he appointed Judges
Bradley and Strong to the bench of the
Supreme court of the United States, in
order to pack the Court SO as to reopen
the legal tender question and reverse
judgment upon it. The Standard repeats
this charge when it says: H. 81
at was the radical party that made that
high Court football in the political arena.
TWAS Grant and his supporters that finally
draggedit down into the very slime Of politics
by packing it with Judges for the express
purpose of reversing a solemn decision rem
dered by it, In order to subservc partizan
purposes"
The Nation of last week, an anti, Grant
paper, whose word we presume the Stand
ard will not dispute, makes the following
statement, which we think, as the Nation
does, is sufficient answer to this accu-
sation: ...-~.
5 ave have been assured, within the last
week, by Judge Hoar, the late Attorney
general, and he ought to know,-that Judges
Bradley and Strong were selected, and we
believe nominated, several days before the
first legal tender decision was delivered, and
before the government knew what it would
he; and that they were selected solely with
reference to their standing and character.
Judge Strong had rendered aadecision in IA
vor of the constitutionality of the act in the
State court, it is true, but SO had almost all
State judges before whom the question had
been brought, and Mr.. Bradley, though
counsel to repudiating corporations, had ad-
vised them to pay their interest in coin. We
consider this good and sufficient answer &c."

FROM WASHING TON.

An occasional correspondent at Washing
ton writes as follows: "In looking over the
proceedings of Congress, l find very
much to applaud. Many very important
bills have passed, others are in such shape as
to lead to hopes of their becoming law. The
appropriation for the National Observatory is
among the measures that should receive con-
gressional sanction. 1t is something to sit here
and know twenty-four hours in advance, what
the dealings of the Clerk of the weather are
to be next day at home. The Washington
Monument stands in sight as proof of chow
not to do it," The hosting apparatus is rotten,
the woodwork inside and roofing rotten.
The expensive, elegant tablets of stone pre-
scented by different States, counties and Or
CARNATIONS, are stored away, the half finished
monument waiting for money. 1t is evident
contributions never will finish it. An appro-
priation by Congress is the only course left if
the noble work is to be carried on to compile
ton.
Politically, all are watching the Cincinnati
movement, not that very much is expected to
be done there. Judge Davis keeps quiet.
Greeley is doing the writing If the democ-
racy do not nominate the nominee of the Con-
yention, then the funeral will be over. From
the republican ranks few votes will be taken.
Leaders self-nominated can well be spared.
The time has gone by when the masses can be
easily changed, when they can be made to vote
by the appeals of eloquent speakers, or led by
the public press, unless those speakers and
that press have the facts, the figures, the
proof positive, that it is for the greatest good,
present and future that change be made
