President Grant as Professor"

President Grant as Professor"
The New York Herald, In a fine vein OF
cood-humored satire, puts forth and ex-
Mains a suggestion that General GRANT shall
assume chair at West Point-viz,, the pro:
fessorshp of rhetoric and English literature.
The General, in answering committee Of
Radicals from New Orleans, who asked for
the removal Of General CASEY, his brother.
in.law, said that he didn't kno where TO put
CASEY. The Herald, inferring from this that
the difficulty ia the way of the Presidents
resignation might be as to where ne would
20, proposes to relieve him of embarrassment
with the professorship aforesaid. 1t says:
"Could anything be better ?-more accr-
rate,y suited to his genius? CincinnatuS re-
| turned 10 the plough and it Is probable that
he made Door fist of it too. What noble
example of retiring worth the world will see

the absurdlty of a third term! There will be

CIV does not read he does better, he writes,
and he can carry to West Point with him, in
a -four barrel, collection of bis own mes
.sges as conspicuous examples in literature.
Whist Il fine word, for Instance, Is 'selt-Eeces-
sity!' 1t could be introduced at West Point
with the greatest success; for some OF the
young fellows there would see at once the
self-necessity Of leaving their bills unpaid,
and the 'self.absurdity so to speak -oi
making themselves unbappy about the regrets
of their creditors, just as Dir. Grant, the other
day, noticed the 'self-ncccssity OF dispensing
legislature at the point Of the bayonet. And
then what noble reflection is found in the
same message where he relates in spirit OF
gratitude to the Oliver 0fall Good, that hard US

The Pacific steamship subsidy exposures

The Pacific steamship subsidy exposures
are of very high grade of frauds. "West
ward " corruption as we'll as empire takes its
way. This Pacific business exceeds any
thing upon the Atlantic thus far made pub
lie. The developments, as our readers have
seen, arc rich. None of the items Of corrup.
ton are more unique than that concerning
Colonel FoRNEY. He was "reluctant" to
undertake the job of helping on the subsidy,
but finally took $4,000, being paid, as the
informer said, for his work and his Gre
luctance." Very good. Reluctance" al
ways has it, price. .~
But FoRNEY was sought because it was al.
legged he could "keep SAM. RANDALL" (be
member from Pennsylvania) "quiet." Which
made IRWIN laugh, and also FoRNEY laugh.
Very Imaginable, indeed, with the s25, 900 in
hand. The fact was that FoRNEY had no In.
fuence over Mr. RANDALL whatever. He
opposed the subsidy earnestly and ably. Is
FoRNEY damaged by the exposure?

Don't Suit the Rascals.

According to Washington letters rumor
there says that hELLoGG's Attorney General
has telegraphed to his Washington confreres
that MIR. HoAR's committee now in New
Orleans Is doing no better for the KELLOGG
party than the subcommittee did. 1t is
declared that they are not pursuing the in.
vestigation in manner satisfactory to the
Republicans What u pity! How unjust
to the innocent lambs!
The denunciatiops heaped upon the com.
mittee by the Radical Washington press
strengthen or faith in it. We feel that
there is good ground to hope that the two
reports Of the able Committee on Louisiana
Affeirs will pretty we'll settle the Louisiana
case with all intelligent people who are not
slaves to the Radical party. Thanks to Mr..
Speaker BLAINE for framing a committee of
honest gentlemen who endeavor to be just,
and will not lead the nation deeper into
trouble for sake of the Radical party. The
nth act Of the tragedy is, we trust, not far
from its close. YiIlainy will in proper time
be exposed and punished.

In General SnERnAN's endorsement Of
Colonel MoRaow's report on Louisiana af-
fairs he commends him highly, and makes
this strange remark: 81 know of no officer
Of Colonel Aorro,o's rank who is better
qualified to speak and write of enatters like
this" Does General SHERMAN mean to cast
slur upon the rank of coIonel' Are ca.
pacity and integrity peculiar to the higher
grades? II SO, how about sHERIDAS?. Its
possible that General SIBERIAN was at the
moment he wrote a'llttle indignant at the
lies Of Major MERRILL and wished TO indite
q sarcasm; but he should be very careful
lest he tread on other peoples toes. If the
Gonna! means to rate honor and intelligence

perhaps. SHERIDAN, who needs something

The Third Term.

We can scarcely understand Beast BUTLER.
lie Is the bull 10 the china.shop. he Is EVIL
IDENTIFY mad, and seems more bent on break
inr things to pieces than anything else. FOE
what else did he let out in support OF the
Sc third term" for GRANT on Tuesday III the
House OF Representatives? He immediately
brought out Mr.. f. II. HOAX, o, Masssenu'
sc,ts. and Mr.. RoBeRrs, Of New York ("ho
has not forgotten GRANTS tsunt that ne OPP
nosed The third term and was beaten), in de-
nunciation Of the third term" NOBODY
came TO the help OF BUrLER, and ne subsidized
having gained DO indication Of approval
from any quarter.
It was rare reconnaissance III force"
It ended in finding the enemy impregnab'e.
Was this movement of Buffers his own,
and altogether without consultation, or bad
it approval from high quarters? II the lat
ter, 1t was very foolish, and proved futile; II
the former, we would as soon conslrue II 70
he an act of unfricpdliness to GRANT US one
of friendship. BUTLER is a beaten man, ana
his very nature would lead him to do all the
devilmept he can before he returns 10 his
shell. Certainly there is no such thing az
confidence to be placed in the man; anu
what be il about nobody knows, and, but
that he may speak for GRANT, nobody cares
1t has been generally believed that GRANT
has been scbemng to continue IN MS olhf
three or more terms. His southern cam
paign, IL Is most saSacious!y suggested, Is 10
famiarize his officers with the business OF
subverting State authority in order that II
that be necessary TO his reelection he may
control the next presidential election. Iha'
would be a successful mode OF dong tne
thing il he shall not by that time have MADE
himself necessity" By the domestic ano
foreign troubles he will have brought upon
the country.
Buffers support of this third term comes
in at the nick Of time as feeler. Like
big snail he was compelled TO draw in his
antenra quick enough. They touched very
di.agreea5Ic objects. But the movement
must attract general attention. The impu'
dence of radicalism is unlimited. The icy
coldness with which BUTLER was treated was
enough to freeze him TO death if he were en-
dowed with ordinary sens:biliv. But be
cares not at all. He has nothing at stake.
There is more in the "third term than
appears upon the surface. The measures OF
the Administration plainly point to it. They
are in no sort intended for the public good,
but, as General GRANT would say, for "seL-
necessity" Let the leading Republicans
look to their laurels, and let the Republic
look 10 its safety.

IMPORTANT INQUIRY.

Under suspension of the rules the fol-
lowing resolution was agreed to: .
"Resolred, That the Treasurer Of the Com.
monwealth be requested to report to the
General Assembly whether any, and if any,
insure the safe custody of the unprotected
bonds of the Commonwealth and the cou-
pons thereto annexed, which were printed
and partially executed under the provisions
of the act commonly known as the funding
bill. Also, whether, in his judgment, it
would be advisable to cancel or destroy a
portion of said partially executed bonds
and if so, what portion of said unprotected
bonds should be preserved for the future use
of the Common wealth."
Mr.. STUART stated, under the operation OF
the funding act, S120,000,0o0 OF bonds had
been prepared, signed, and partially exc
cuted, and the coupons upon them perfected.
The coupons, which, If abstracted and held
until maturity would be good against the
Commonwealth, are said to be kept very in
securely in the basement. 1t Is important to
have the information asked SO that the
General Assembly may determine whether
any legislation is necessary to protect the
Commonwealth from loss.
BANK OF ROCKINGHAM.
On motion of Mr. ARMSTRONG, the House
reconsidered the vote by which it agreed to
the adverse report of the Committee on Fl.
nance in reference to the return of certain
distracted bonds belonging to the Bank of
Rockingham.
On motion of Mr.. HoLBRooK, the resolu-
ton was then recommitted.
at O'Clock the
GENERAL ROAD Law
came up as the special order.
Mr. FRIEND moved to exempt school trus-
tees and school teachers from working on
roads. Rejected.
Mr.. LovESsTnN proposed to exempt off,
GERS and employees of 1unatie asylums. Re-
jected.
Mr.. SYPHAx moved to exempt Alexandris
county from the operations Of the pending
road.law. Rejected.

AT this point the proceedings were sus.
pended, and Mr.. j. A. CARrSR offered the
