GEN. GRANTS SALARY GRAB.-But what shall
lie said of the President himself. who was the
abetter and accomplice, nay, more, the author
and the prime mover in this wholesale larceny
His salary for the year lS72 was S25 900, to which
is to be added his Perqnistes, amounting to the
enormous sum of S77, 600, makngi an aggregate
Of sIO2, 600. or s2s2 a day for every day in the
year, Sundays included. Think of it, ye who
elect presidents!
But did this satisfy his cupidity Far, very
far from it. He demanded and received as his
reward for signing the Infamous bill that his sal
AIRY of SIS 900 be made $4,000 year, which adds
s65.50 day to his pay, making an aggregate of
s350.50 day, provided the amount of his per-
quisites which have steadily increased since his
election, remain at the sum total of s17,6OO
year.
Let MS examine this transaction in the light of
every day business. ! am the president of an in
suraHce company. Now, suppose that on the
last day of the year, after having drawn my
stipulated salary, | had cOnspired with the re-
manning officers of the company to rob its till Of
of a sum equivalent TO One-half of our specified
compensation and that we had divided the swag
between us. We had the keys, and we had in
our power TO abstract the money. What would
you think of such transaction 7 Would wenot
be likely about this time to he an our way to the

GEO. W. BRowN.-An old Kansans will re-
member Geo. w. Brown, at one time editor of
the Herald Of Freedom, published at Lawrence.
This paper was, at Que time, the organ of the
Free State men of Kansas. Bat its editor was
devoid of courBge or principle, and he attempted
tn hrtray the Free State cause. His paper lost
its influence aud its ciTculaIioD and finally went
down. We have heard nf Brown occasionally
since hut for several years he has passed out of
mind. T8ie Burliugsme Chronicle tells of him
and his present whereabouts in the following
article:
&c. W. Brown, q prominent man in the early
history of Kansas, aud at that time editor of the
Herald of Freedom of Lawrence, is now running
yapor bath in Illinois. Brown commenced busi-
ness in life a cabinet maker, in Conneautville,
a small town in Western Pennsylvania; then he
started newspaper there and finally moved it
to Kansas, where he distinguished himself as a
"freedom screecber;" then be distinguished him
self again by selling out, soul, body, and
breeches, to the slavery party of the State; then
he quarreled with his wife; got a divorce; mar
rietl again; left the State; studied law failed as
disciple of Blackstone; became a vagaboud aud
a wanderer; read medicine little, and became
quack; and now, in his ripper years, turns up as
n vapor bath man. Few men have had so varied
an experience as this same George Washington
Brown. With every opportunity thrust upon
him to become wealthy and distinguished aud a
ben-factor of his race, yet the immense quagnIire
in his nature swamped him every time"

EDITORS HERALD.-I will again
attempt to write you 4 few brief Coun-
ty items from this portion, known as
Chinquepin. We have ben blessed
with some hne rains, commencing on
Friday, the 5th, which WAS L good rain,
aud not hard washing one. as we
had often during tile Spring. TIE
late oats mad begun to suffer, but the
rain helped them great deal. Must
of the farmers have finished cutting
wheat, and | am glad to tell you the
present crop is quite good one, much
better than many thought, and some
say it is the largest one made III many
years. We could not do justice to
say who has the best wheat, fOrit is all
good, but we cannot help mentioning
Capt. II. H. Folks among the best
wheat in our midst. We noticed it aver
aged three grains to the shuck, and
We uoticcd many to contain four, We
counted the grains in one head and
found it to contain eighty grains. We
think about forty-fve grains is Il good
average crop. As We will soon have
ucw flour, we can but wish you could
eat conc new biscuits Of l!encr make:
Will. i little butter and honey Coru
looks remarkably well, and should the
seasons continue, We think quite 4
large crup will be made. Cotton is
nothiuy great, although few shapes
can be seen by close observation. The
colOrcl people in this settlement are
working well. and l think many will
agree with ne in saying credit is due to
them fer their industry at present. We
hope it may continue. We are now
enjoying blackberry pies and sweet
milk for dinner, a dish which I
think will equal fried chicken. The
crop is quite large one. ! am

The New York Evening Post says !:
The agitation in the Protestant EpIs
copal Church appears to be coming to
i definite po;at, aud the spirit Of the
church papers and the discussions Of
diocesan conventions show very clear
ly the issue which is to be made ut
the approaching general convention in
this city, in October. Men of weight
are evidently unwilling to disturb the
settled order of the Praysr-bool by
omission or addition, and they are as
little inclined to make new anG minute
rules, or even recommendations: as to
the details of costume aud ceremony.
It looks very much, however, as If L
large majority were ready to come out
decidedly against the root Of the eS-
treme ritualiSm: and to declare that
the adoratiaa OF the sacrament. is ~
part of the faith or the worship Of
the Protestant Episcopal Church.. "

This subject is attracting attention
among the thoughtful. 1t sccins TO
be generally admitted by both E"p"b-
licans and Conservatives that this w.
tem of voting is the justc$t and most
truly republican, b.cause the most
representative. We are decidedly in
favor Of it, aud hope that it, adoption
in South Carolina is not far off. The
virtual oStraciSm of our native white
men and property holders from office
by reason of an antagnni$tlc numerical
majority is prime cause Of our dis
tres$. Cumulative voting or minority
representation would remove this evil.
Tn. Columbia Union has committed
itself to do all in its power tc secure
the adoption Of the system III this
State. 1t says:
The Onion will go a< far rs any
paper in the State to bring about the
adoption Of the system Of cumulative
voting, not only here in South Caro-
lira. but in Ill other States. We shall
al-o insist that the Republican party
shall put this in its Platform Of prin-
cipl:s, as one of the principal nlanks. j"
