with selling liquor to a man in Mortified. lie
was convicted Of three third odenses, and it is
claimed was sentenced to pay fine of $6Oand to
undergo an imprisonment Of three months in
the county Jail. From this sentence he ap-

There have been rumors of financial
Irregularities on the part of Gen. Howard,
in his management of the freedmen's bu.
reau, for some time, but people have been
very slow to believe them. The specific
charges made by the Secretary Of War,
however, in his communication to Congress
show that there has been, at least great
looseness on the part Of Gen. Howard in
his financial transactions, and if he is limo
cent of any wrong doing he should desire
an official Investigation as much as Gen.
Belknap does.
