REPORTED CASE OF SMALLPOX. colored
man named Gaskins, sailor belonging ID the
sloop Hooper, lying at the Duke street wharf,
was reported this morning to have been attack
ed by smallpox. Several physicians ex.
amiped him and there was difference of opiu-
ion as to the genuiness of the disease, but in
order to avoid all possibility of danger, the
collector of the port ordered the captain of the
vessel to carry him to Georgetown and put him
in the Marine hospital there. The sloop
was towed over to the Maryland flats until it
could be ascertaiued whether or not admission
into the hospital could be obtained for him.

Political Trickpry.

AS we have before aud often asserted
we are Disguised with the political decep.
ton attempted to be practiced upon the
people by the different political partizlns,
We must condemn it in our own party no
less than in the opposition.
We especially regret that Gen. Dix
can he charged with it,but as the Liberals
have really AS il seems made out a case,
we must SO far agree with them as to ex.
press our utter condemnation Of it. 1t
appears that in letter to a friend in
which he assails Mr. Greeley most violent.
ly, he said,
elf you had been familiar with the
course Of my public life, aud ca tally SO
with Mr.. Greeley's, you could not have
supposed me capable Of advocating his
election to the Office of President OF the
Quilted States without imputing to me au
utter abandonment of all political priu.
ciple am opposed to Mr.. Greeley -
20. Because in the darkest hour Of
the couutry's peril, when u traiturou>
continuation had been formed TO overthrow
the Government, he openly couuseled the
cowardly policy Of non-resistancc, aud an
acquiescence Ill the dissolution of the
Unlou whenever the Cotton States should
make up their minds to go"
1t was in the winter of lS60-61 that
Mr.. Greeley, according to this charge had
been willing to let the Cotton State,
withdraw peaceably from the Union ,rath.
or than have civil war.
In speech which Gen. Dix delivered
in Cooper Institute, New York, in 1864,
three years after the rebellion was begun
aud when we were meeting with severe
reverses, he said
"lf the Southern States, after calm de
liberation, aud after carefully consider
lug all the consequences, had decided,
with the consent OF the others, aud with
Il full recognition OF their responsibility to
the Union, to withdraw peaceahly from
It, there are many Of Us tohO 'could hare
preferred separation to a cirH ,0ar."
Now compare Gen. DIx's statement Of
Mr. Greeley's position with Gen Dix's
statement Of his own position aud the ex.
hibt IL not entirely suggestive Of consist
ency, nor is it datterug to the Gcner-
ais head and heart.

a NEW Dtscovni The Giceley ties
have becu 1y,,,l 10 abandon their gener-
al charges OF corruption against the
Administration. The proof submitted
by General Grants friends has been so
convincing that even tho rank aud file of
the Democracy have been persuaded that
the administration of General Grant has
been both honest and economical. This
ADHESION has thrown the opposition Into
confusion. The reduction Of the national
debt to the amount of 1886 100000 has
been stubborn fact to overcome. They
have given up the task of disproving it,
and have changed the mode Of attack.
Failing to prove the Administration cor.
rupt, they attempt to rob the President
of the credit which belongs to him in the
management of affirs. "Generd Grant
dident pay the debt, tile peoplc paid it =.

plank to carry Greeley on, but the peo-
pie will be apt to stand by the man who
permitted them to do so much towards

Greelcyites blame the people or General

the President from Maine to California.
aud would have secuted the idea of hol.

raj Grant had nothing to do with it, that
the credit belongs TO the people who ten

the credit to the people. General GRAFT
belongs to the people; they sus aiued
him in the past and viii. stand by him in
the future. He has labored for the pco.

A hint of legal requirements in secur-
ing land patents mag not be Improbable
to those designing to avail themselves oil
the splendid opportunities furnished by
the government, Of securing farms from
the public domain.
A patent issued by the government Of
the United States is legal aud conclusive
evidence Of title to the land described
therein. No equitable interest however
strong, to land described in such patent
can provide at law against the patent.
When two patents have been issued
for the same land, the general rule is,
that the elder patent shall prevail. When
it is evident that junior patent has been
issued pursuant to legal authority, and
the elder patent has not, the former will
prevail. lfa patent shall have been
issued by mistake, and the person holding
the same. refuses TO deliver it up for cor
rcctiou or cancellation, the President may
direct another one to issue to the same,
or to another person. recitipg therein the
errors in the first. As general rule.
the government will not issue two patents
for the same land. A patent issued to
person deceased at the time of its issu-
ance inures to the benefit of his heirs.
Where patent has been obtained by
fraud, misrepresentation of facts or such
a mistake as affects the substantial rights
Of parties, it may be set aside, or trust
declared, and conveyance decreed by
court of equity, to be made to the party
entitled.
