Secretary Richardson and Gen Butler have not
beou able to suppress tho facts connected with
The uwindlo known us the sanborn contracts.
In our Now York dispatches, wo give this morn-
iug for tho first time the story Of ono Of tho
wolst frauds connected with the fraud-
breeding Administration Of the laat Blk
years. It contains not only tho infor-
nation that WIS forced out of tue Secretary OF

but some additional and important facts Oh
taiued from District Attorney Tonuey, Of Brook
lyn, who IL conducting tho prosecution there
ngninst sanborn. and from an informer whom
6auborn choatod, aud from other sources in the
possession Of the New York Tribune. This mass
of testimony implicatos ox-socrctary Boutwell,,
Secretary Richardson. Assistant Secretary saw-
yer, Solicitor Banie1d, Gen. Butlor, aud George
Bliss, Jr, tic United 6tutos District Attorney i'll
New York. in something that looks disasroeably
like conspiracy. Tho law by which this moun-
tain Of fraud vas made went through Congress-
as rider to the Appropriation bill of 1872.
Under this law, authorizing tho Secretary Of tic
Treasury to employ threo persons to assist tho
regular internal revonuo officers in collecting
taxes, sauborn has boeu giyon, in throo contracts,
tho particulars Of which are stated, tho collection
OF s12,000,000 Of tnxos, Of which 5G,oo0,0oo
will 80 to himself and lis confodoratos. whor-
ever thoy aro, in tho Troasury, or Congresa, or
elsewhere. Que Of the worst features Of tic
buaineBs is that by On order given by Secretary
Boutwell,, in his own handwriting, sanborn Sat
allowed to examine tho books Of oil the Assessors
and Collectors in the country. This gave lin
tito knowledge md the authority by which to ati'
ticipato tho regular officials, md collect at {
cost Of 80 por cent taxes that might haye beeu So
