The LAST BROrHER-IN-LAw's PERCENTAGE
ON AN OFFIcE-SEEKER.Ac correspondent of
the New York Tribune at Washington en-
poses case showing the responsibility which
the President has assumed in the appoint
ment of brothers-in-law to office, and it is the
most fragrant that has yet been made public.
1t relates to General Frederick Il. Dent, who
is leutenant-colonel of artillery in the reg
ular army, and a brother Of Mrs. Grant, and
who is borne upon the official directory as
Secretary to the President. The correspond

quented the White House, and to the atten.
tive readers Of newspapers, that General
Dent has charge of the ante or waiting-room
of the Executive mansion, where all visitors
except the privileged ones, like Cabinet
officers, have to wait before being admitted
into the official apartment of the President.
The statement which follows is gathered
from conversation have had with gen.
tleman whose name Is at present withheld and
1t is vouched for by him as trustworthy in
every respect. The gentleman in question
is a prominent resident of one of the southern
and is now engaged In the campaign. During
the spring of 1871 he was an applicant for
appointment az consul at one Of the ports in
Japan or China. After spending some time
in Washington, and making no Roadway,
he was advised to apply to General Dent.
Accordingly, on the 18th Of May, 1871, he
addressed that officer, saying he had mat
ter pending requiring the Presidents APP
proval, and he therefore wanted Dents as
slstance, for which he expressed himself as
willing to pay. Dent, it is alleged, answered
the letter. appointing an interview at the Elk.
ecntiyc mansion at 3 p. n. on the following
day. The note Of Dents was shown to two
friends, cx-artny officers, one of them held on
the retired list, who recognized Dents sigma
ture by saying, {" Yes, that Is old Seventy
seven Dents autograph; We used TO call
him Seyenty-seyen Dent because the f and
Il were just alike, AMI resemble the figure

At the t;rle Indicated in the note the ao-
plicant went to the White House and 20 d

note. The two then entered private room

as uniformed as they are, and governed by
the same prejudiees. A man who will con-
verse with members of the Greeley CoIored
Club will, readily see the difference between
an intelligent voter whom an argument
might be offered and the brutes with black
skins and excited heads who gather at the
Radical meetings. These votes are not neces

them.

asked for an expression of his political pre-

on to dcprecate personalities in the canvass,
however, and says that "no colorcd man

Mr.. Frederick Brown, the only surviving

this position, assigns the following:
1.-THE promoters of the anti-slavery cause
have accomplished all they desire, and now
unless they can bring about reconciliation
and harmony between the two sections his
tory will pronounce the Abolition movement
failure. The course of the Grant Admins
