'Then why don't you take it?' answered him

And laughed in his faceas I glanced around
When such misfortune befell, for alack
My bonnie blue ribbon dropped off on the
ground.

joy
Till the woods his gay laughter re-echoed
again;
"a forfeit Pll have" said this impudent boy,
AS he swung my blue ribbon around on his
cane.

back;

When such misfortune befell, for, alack,
trpped on stone and fell into his arms

But pulled all my golden hair over my eyes,

TIE FRENCH ARM, SCANDAL.

Hon the Geographic reports of the in
vestigati0n now BEN; held at Washington,
respecting the sale of arms to French
az ,ns during the Frauoo-rIussiIn war, we
Tan that some important facts have
already been elected. Ii has been definitely
sscertained that the only instructions given
by the War Department to its principal
agent in New York, during the war, was
not to sell 10 Remington. No orders were
issued not to sell to agents Of the
belligerents. The result of this was that
large quantities of arms and ammunition
were directly sold to agents of France, and
openly shipped from New York to the
scene Of conflict. The principal agent of
the United States government, acting under
his instructions from the War Department,
did not consider it bis business to ascertain
whether his purchasers represented either
of the beligerents or not. Perhaps he had
received some significant hint that any I'M
due zeal on his part to prevent an infringe
Ment of the neutrality laws would not i'm
prove the tenure of bis Office. This
was not actually brought out in
the investigation, but it is hard to account
for bis conduct in the whole matter on any
other supposition. He not only sold the
arms belonging to the War Department to
known agents of France, but delivered
them at the pier Of the French steamships
ia New York, and some Of them were C
tua1y delivered on board Of French YES
sells. In view of these facts, 1t is hardly
reasonable TO suppose that he could
have been ignorant Of the destination Of
these immense quantities of warlike stores.
Taken in connection with the other
glaring fact that the Government factories
were worked to their fullest capacity to
turn out ammunition for the arms sold to
the French agents, the plea Of ignorance ad-
vsnced by the War Department is too
transparent to deceive the most credulous.
They must have known for whom the arms
were purchased, and against whom they
were to be used. Whatever success the
administration may meet with In attempt.
ing to hoodwiEk the Grant Radicals, they
cannot deceive the Germans. The cheap
sympathy expressed for Prussia during the
struggle in Europe viii hardly weigh
against the positive, active aid which the
Radical leaders extended to France. The
German people have had their eyes opened
at las. 10 the dishonesty and utter unrelia,
biliy Of the administration party, and will
neither be csioled nor bullied into support
ing them in the future.

The Washington correspondent of the

"There is the best possible authority for

GRANT INLOUIsEANA.

The letter of Gen. Longstreet resigning
the position of Surveyor of Customs at
New Orleans, is still kept from the public,
but an linking Of its character has leaked
out. The Washington correspondent Of
the New York Tribune writes on March II:
sit is understood that Gen. Longstreet,
in his letter of resignation, will assign as
his reason that he cannot support an Ad-
ministration which uphOlds an attempt to
overtuTn the republican State Government
Of Louisiana. This resignation was brought
about by the influence Of Casey and Pack
ard, the Collector and United States Mar
shall of New Orleans, who have been il
Washington a week or two"
The Tribune appreciates the position in
Louisiana. It says:
.'As might be expected, the sacrifice Of
Surveyor LOugsTeet, TO placate the eGaceT-
bared Republicans of Louisiana, fails TO
have The least effect. While Collector
Casey, for whom the President seems TO
have a elm yirg affection, is retained, The

POOR FELLOWl

Colfax declined to be considered eandi-
date for denomination, and finally when
he yielded to the pressure, the Grant Radi-
Gals discovered that they did not want him,
The Washington correspondent Of the New
York Herald writes, March u, as follows:
ga strong movement against Mr.. COlfsx
as the Republican candidate for Vice Presi-
dent is developing, and a combination is
forming to make Senator Scott, Of Penn
sylvanis, the second man on the ticket.
This course, It is declared, viii be generally
arccptahls TO the Eastern States and con-
ciliate | the hostile elem Its in Pennsylys
MIA, satisfying Tom Scott, Cameron and
FOrney, and even healing the Mcclure
breach in Philadelphia. The elevation of
Senator Scott to the Vice Presidency would
make vacancy In the Senate which could
be given TO Forney without disturbing
Cameron. Il is generally und srsfOod that
the White House is unfavorabe TO Colfax,
and if he is beaten the nomination will prob
ably be given to James F. Wilson, Henry
Wilson or Senator Scott. This is a new
element Of trouble, and it is impossible 20

The ST. Louis Republican, the leading
organ of the Liberal Republican,, In speak
ing of the opposition to Grant, says:
It must be so organized, and so led IS to
make available in the attack the full force
If every element of dissatisfaction it is
composed Of. This may, and we q nf-
IDENTIFY believe viii, defeat Grant and eject
a change al Washington.
How can 'the full force" of that ''ele-
ment of dissatisfaction" to Grant, known
as the Democratic party, be made most
available in the approaching contest? The
Banner says, by disorganization and
disbandment. We say, by organiza-
tlon and work. In the language
of the Liberal Republican whom
we quoted few days since: awe
want all the energy and all the ability o
Democratic speakers and the Democratic
press. We want all the assistance of or
gaaizatiOn through committees, national
State and county"
This is not 'the twaddle of trading politi
cans" but It is the sensible view" of thu
ablest Liberal Republicans, who are goins
into this Presidential struggle not simply Il
disorganize and disband the Democracy
but to beat Grant. They wish "every ele
ment of dissatisfaction" SO led Gas to MAX

tors Schurz, Trumbuu and Upton have mo-
been making their vigorous war upon tn
Customhouse frauds, the French Arms ras
calities and other corruptions of the Gran
administration, for the sole purpose Of dis
organizing the Democracy. Unlike tht
Banner, they have confined their attacks Il
the Grant party. OF how much less yalu
would their services have been to the eoun
try, and Of how much less avail in securing
the defeat Of Grant, if they had devoted
their energies, their eloquence, their ability
to accomplish what the Banner makes it
primary object-the disorganization of tn
Democracy.

work since the resignation by Forney ofthe
position of Collector Of the Port Of Phila
delphia, to buy him over to his active sup
port again. The indications now are tn t
he has succeeded. Whether Forney is
worth the price is a matter about which the
public will perhaps entertain different
opinions.
The following from the Washington
Patriot is capital addendum to these reve-
lations:
= AT the Forney dinner in Philadelphia,
the presiding officer told the hilarious com
pany that Dresden Grant nGgnGliBlo1Lsly
appointed Col. Forney Collector and Col.
| Forney reluctantly accepted" and Mr.. For
/ ney said ''To-morroW will close my
career as an ofice-holder, and hope for
ever" and, then, We have the impressive
| incident:
IL 1922 P. NJ, President Grant arrived
at the Academy, aud the band played "Hail
to the Chief" The entire company arose,
and, led by COL Forney, gave nine cheers
for the President, who bowed his recogni-
ton of the compliment, accepted a cigar
oAN GO1oOA1 oAAA oeNb 4AASaAg dO"hs
Then was it that the "halting" Collector
leaped upon his feet and nominated his
patron, saying, oddly enough,in view Of the
corner coIloquy with Gen. Rawlins:
/ remember how he abstained from the
Presidency till it was forced upon him, and
that but for him in 1868 we should have
been defeated, even by Seymour and Blair.
Our recollection of the compulsion used
to coerce the nomination in 1858 is differ
ent. II was not unlike the scene in Mr..
Puff7s tragedy, with which the exc Collector,
rich in dramatic memories, Is no doubt IA
miliar. He, or the party, is the IRburiRd
of the play: T
