day several hundred men were discharged
from the Charlestovn Navy Yard because
there was no work or them to do. aud if
there had been not one IN twenty Of those
recently appointed were capable of per.
forming it. These men were aptoiu,cd
for the purpose Of swelling the vote Of
certain members Of Congress. 1t is
trick the Democratic party introduced.
A Republican administration ought
promptly to have put its foot upon any
such movement. la addition to this it
was an open, bare faced violation of the
laws Of Massachusetts, Section 81 of

Section 81. Whoever by bribery, or threaten

The employment was gircA instead of
being promised, but it was nevertheless
violation of the spirit, if not of tho very
letter Of the law Men were sent there
who had no knowledge Of any labor that
they were supposed to be capable Of exc.
cutting. There is to be another discharge
OF this useless material. As bit of DO
litica policy it done more harm than
good. Those who bacame acquainted
with this corruption were influenced
against the party, and even the men ON.
ployed, We are told, did not vote as they
were expected to do. We trust it is the
last time that the administrators Of the
Government at Washington will ever
sanction any such waste of tho peoples
money. We shall soon hear that the
appropriation for the Charlostown Navy
Yard is expended, and then in order to
make amends for this great wrong there
will come orders for rotrenchmeni. Skill.

will be discharged, and the inevitable re.
suit must he that honest mechanics will
suffer because these political uhanq want.

to be attended to while the admni,tra.
