Tho Duty Of the Hour.

1t is very evident in view of the fact re-
lating to the Sanborn contracts and the
Jayne seizures, says the Boston journal,
that the republican party must purge itself
of the wrongs inflicted by its officials
Where there is absence of fraud Congress
should vote the money back TO those from
whom it had been fraudulently taken. The
portion of all such sums passed into the
treasury of the United States should be re-
stored. When this is done, if there is law
and justice in this country, those who have
preyed upon the honest merchant should
be made to disgorge to the last penny. The
spirit and the letter of the Sanborn CON
tract, bad as it is, have been violated. Col
lectors and other officials who connived
with any of these special agents must be
dealt with as the law deals with those OBJ
tanning money under false pretence.
The attorney of a class of men who have
legal colorng for their depredatons may
excuse himself upon the ground that he
renders professional service, but the honest
minded public fail to see the difference be-
tween the doer and the adviser. Inside of
the republican party and by republicans
must this task be accomplished. The vast
majority of the party is honest. 1t must
not and will not be driven out Of the party,
and the mission of the party will not be ac-
complished till we restore it TO that purity
which it possessed when John A. Andrew
was alive. The noblest political work eyer
set before our upright nation to perform is
now presented To avoid such conflict
is equivalent TO n confession that rcpubli-
can institutions are a failure, and that pub
lie service is closed against honest men.

A Burglar Captured.

negro burglar During the latter part of
February furnished house at Schuyler
vile, belonging to the Turner'S, had been
left unoccupied for little while, while the
family were visiting. During their absence
the house was ransacked by burglar, who
took clothing, bedding, crockcry, ETC., to
the value of 5000. Mr.. Turner lay in wait
for the villain, who made visits every night
to the house to carry off articles, and finally
caught him, bound him aud took him in
wagon to deliver him into the hands of Of
fcers at Schaghticoke. On the way thther
the burglar--who proved to be villanous
negro.-broke loose and escaped. Turner
gave information to Chief Squire and he,
with Detective Markham of Troy, visited
the negro dens in town and finally found
that the burglar had married week before

Troy. After he was arrested by the officers
