A WASHINGTON dispatch of June q.
says: "The administration organ here to-
day charges that the missing Buell. court
martial records were taken by Andrew
johnson, when President, to cover up a
portion of his record when he was Military
Governor Of Tennessee, and that Gen. Bu-
ell believes that they disappeared through
that channel. Inasmuch as the evidence
before the House Committee shows that
tire records were In Gen. Badeau's posses
5 ION after Grant was President, this bold
charge does not hold good officially"

TIE st. Louis Republican points out one
class of persons who are sure to be unit
for Grants reelection. It refers to that
nondescript class never heard of in this
country till Radicaism came into power,
and never to be heard Of again after Radi-
calism shall be turned out of power-the
carpet-baggers. There are not great
many Of them, and they do not form very
strong voting body, but every one of them
is for Grant.

TIE END OF TIE WORLD IN l672.-
1t is predicted by French astronomers, as a
scientific fact, that the earth will cease to
revolve on its axis-wiIl burst, burn or
tumble to pieces-will come to an end the
coming fall. And strangely enough, the
learned men of Italy predict thn end at the
same time, differing only in asserting the
destruction will be caused by fire. The
prophesiers maintain that an inc0nceivably
immense sub ralean fire cC nsuming the
bowels of the earth; ard ref.r to the recent
falling of the earth's surface near VesuVius,
and the changed appearance Of the matter
vomited from the crater as proof positive of
their theory.

Gov. GEARY, Of Pennsylvania, has been
making speech at Grant meeting in Bos-
ton. The Pittsburgh Post suggests that he
should have recited that portion Of the Mes
sage in which he denounced Grant, for yio-
Iating the rights of Pennsylvania by order
ing soldiers to interfere at elections.

IF all the charm bells which have been
sold and said to have been cast from the
Chicago Courthouse bell were genuine,
what. a large bell that must have been. 1t
must have weighed more than two thou
sand tons, or ten times as much as the
Moscow tinker. In view Of the success Of
this scheme, a WISCONSIN paper suggests
that the bell on Mrs!LeaTy's COW be manu-
featured into Courthouse bells, and declares
it would make one for each Courthouse i'll

THERE are about two steamers sailing
daily from Liverpool for this continent.
During the month of May tfty-three steam
ships left the Mersey, of which thirty-fOUr
came to New York, eight to Boston. eight
to Quebec and Montreal, and three to Hal

these are added the ships Of the French and

SONNET-A PORTRAIT OF A LADY
ny HORACE GREELEY.

The bllssful June of Life: l love to gaze
On its sweet wealth Of ripening lowell
ness,
And lose the thought that DER my sadden
ing days
Grim care has worn clouds which " il
depress
In spite of stole pride and firm resolve:
Warnd back to youth and gladdcned by
its beams.
But lady! in that mild, soul-speakine
glance.
Those lustrous orbs, returning heaven
its hue,
I greet an earlier fricnd-forgive the
trance?
It's nature only, imagcd here so true .
That briefly, forgot the painters art
And hailed the presence ola Qneenly heart
What a fine poet the world lost when
Greeley became absorbed in politics.
What u many sided man our modern
Franklin is. Though not by any means n
funny man himself, he is like Falstaf, the
cause of infinite wit in others. Though
the butt Of the American press for years he
is respected by all and vcnerated by many.
Though n journalist and philosopher. he
has an itching for Office, and though life
long Republican he is not aversc TO Demo-
cratic support in his aspirations for the
Presidency. We presume the political
editors of the United States were never in
80 great a quandary US now. All their
professional sympathies must naturally be
with their brothers Greeley and Graft
Brown, who in turn would if elected, pro-
badly feel special interest in everything
that concerns the press. Suppose we try
a journalistic adminstration-all the offices
Of the national government to be filed by
editors. This great republic is said to be
strong-Ict us test its strength severely.

From polite solicitors of custom
