THs.New York Sun, exposes another
exploit upon the Public Treasury
The facts in the case, says the editor,
are given by our correspondent with all
the necessary documentary evidence to
slucidste and support them:
Oskes Ames having vainly applied 10
Secretary Stanton and to Secretary
Welles for q contract authorizing his
brother, Horatio Anes, to build wrought
iron artillery of bis own invention for
the Government, finally worried out OF
President Lincoln letter to Mr.. Welles
requesting him at leset to give Ames'
cannon . trial. Under this request
Mr.. Welles consented that Ames should
make single experimental gun. In
stead of this, however, be went on and
made eleven of them. Wien bis gun
was ready it was tried and burst. Com
planning that the experiment had been
made under unfsvorsble circumstance,
he got Secretary Welles to appoint new
board, which went on and tried FIVE
others Of his pieces. All FIVE proved
defective, one OF them bursting, and the
board unanimously advised that they
should all be rejected. Mr.. Welles &C.
cordingly refused to pay for any of lhem.
After Robeson came into power, Oskes
Ames, using influences at his command
where they would do most good, found
means to interest that most reckless
pluuderer OF the treasury to get all these
guns paid for. Rebeson wrote to Hen
~ L. Dawes, Chairman of the Commit.
tee on Appropriations. a letter in which
the facts in the case were greatly fslsi-
fed, recommending that $72, 900 should
be paid to Ames for those rejected and
worthless cannon. ard he went before
the committee and made speech in the
same behalf. He also had the aid OF
Ames's friend and partner in the Credit
Mobilier, Mr.. Dawes, and between them
the job was carried through and the
money paid. But Horstio Ames hsv-
ing died, it was paid to .Oakes Ames,
while the widow and administrative OF
Horatio Ames alone had any right to
receive it. And now Secretary Robson
unable to get it back from the Credit
Mobilier operator, has promised the
widows attorneys that il they will not
sue him in the Court of Claims and
bring out there all the facts in the case
be will pay to Horatio Ames estate
$685. more for another lot OF the
same kind Of cannon.
We commend these facts to the care
ful consideration OF those who do not
think public robbery a comnendshle
thing.

Our special dispatch from Charles
ton, this morning, conveys the very
gratifying intelligence that fair and
impartial investigation has failed to
substantiate the charges heretofore
made against Mr.. HENRY S. WALKER,
as Public Printer. The pretended in
vestigation last summer was, as every
body, at all conversant with the
circumstances knew. conducted in the
interests Of Governor JACOBS indepen-
ent campaign. An effort was made to
show that the distinguished martyr OF
the Parkersburg convention was given
the go-by because he Was an honest
man and had endesvored to protect the
public treasury. The public printing
investigation was the capital and stock
in trade for the campaign and was
made to do duty on every stump in the
State where Radicals and boilers could
gather an audience.
Iii gratifying to those who endesv-
ored to maintain the supremacy Of the
Democratic party and who labored for
the success of the regular nominees. to
find that the guns Of their opponents
are 80 completely spiked as they are BY
this report. The truth is out at last,
in defiance OF the efforts that have been
made for its suppression. and the false
pretenses that led to a partial success
of the Radical party in this State last
fall are now fully exposed.

The Bmilef's Theory.

| too, and his faith like . quart OF mt,''
tard seeds in the credulity Of the pe''
pie. He has furthermore, been iu'
proving his time. His theory shows 1
We expected . beautiful theory "her-
ever it should come, but We did
not look for such q marvel OF ingenwy
as the Christian inventor has invented
The country is no longer in suspense
concerning the source whence came tae
pestiferous twelve hundred dollan.
SCHUYLER received$lOO OOQof the sum while
his smile was irradating the breakfast
table in his own elegant home in Tie
great, wicked Capital. 1t came from
an entire stranger. and was consscrated
to campaign purposes. This stranger
was one Geo. W. Nesbit, Of New York.
Nesbit WAS q peculiar man. He had
secrets which he. kept from bis own
wife; and this was one Of 'em. He
didn't want the wife Of bis bosom 10
know how patriotic man he was. Many
hush ands conceal their vices but this
man concealed or sought TO conceal, his
virtues. He wished this letter to be
strictly Confidential" This is a pleas.
ing part OF the theory. But poor Mes
bit died iu about a year after sending
this confidential thousand dollars to the
smiling Christian statesman Tor pstri-
otic purposes.
Now, note the evidence Of these
weeks OF search for theory. If he
had only found that living man had
sent this money, it might have been
awkward for him. Indeed, ss 1t is, 1t Is
rather unfortunate that no traces of
such a confidential donation on the
part of this modest husband can be
found in bis books, or in any records oi
his affairs. Another witness OF Schuy-
Ter, his mother, is 10 heaven. Another
witness testified her devotion BY travel
ing three thousand miles to give her
testimony. Coltax and the living mem
bers of his family who breakfasted with
him on that memorable morning, re-
member that Thousand dollar bill.-
The remaining sixth part OF the theory,
which relates to the 5000, is the most
plausible in the world. Like Chris.
tian's step-sou, he had bought piano
for his step-father, or his step-father's 8
daughter, and 5000, of this money, Mr..
Collax is sure must have been paid TO
him near the middle of June. He is
almost certain that this remaining
5000 came from father Matthews.
This theory is an artistic production.
The details OF it will be found in our
dispatches this morning The country
can now balance the statements OF Mr..
CoLrAx and his family concerning ,Jh6'
deceased NEsBIr, supplemented by
father MATTHEWS payment of 500 on
account of piano, on the one hand and
the testimony OF OAkEs ANEs, supported
by his memorandum.book and the sworn
statements of the Sergeant-atArms and
the check sign ed BY OAKEs AsEs, on the
other. 1t will be seen from our dis
patches, however, that the five hundred
dollar sympathy of SCHUYLER was and
still remains a touching token OF HIS
Christianity by his own admission.
