The Three Loving Generals.

From the New York Sun.
Gen. Mcdonald, the convicted whisky ring
Ster, in Jail at St Louis, occupies a luxu-
rously furnished apartment and is treated
with the greatest Difference by his keepers.
Yet as even this kind of imprisonment must
be unpleasant for him in some respects, be
may take it into his head to follow the exam
pie of Boss Tweed, if his confidence in ex.
ecutive clemeney was not so well founded
Gen. Mcdonald IS a man of resources, who
has been an intimate personal friend of Gen.
Grant for tW nty years, and who has also en-
joyed the pleasure Of close familiarity with
Gen. Babcock. Gems. Med onald, Grant and
Babcock are three fraternizing generals upon
whom an eye should be kept in these times.
Carl Schurz is one of the shrewdest stu
dents Of American politics. The moral Of
his views on recent party cries is summed up
in the following extract from his interview
with Tribune representative
You raise the "No Popery" cry in our na-
ional politics, and make il the absorbing
issue, and you will see that all the Joyces and
McDonalds will be IN blaze of excitement
against the Pope, in the meantime looking
for an opportunity to steal all the money they
can lay their hands on. l want all men
elected to offices OF power and influence to
be right on the school question, but | want
them no less 10 be right on the question of
honest government And think the neces-
sity of SO reforming the civil service as not
only to send thieves to Jail. but to iLfuse into
the whole machinery of the government a
moral spirit and a sense of honor that will
prevent corruption instead of merely punish
ing il, has never been more strikingly illus
trated than il the very whisky ring trials now
going on.

The letter of the accommodating Super
visor Tuition to Grant, at this late day, white
washing the President and Babcock and try
ing to make out that Grant, at his suggestion,
stopped the order transferring the whisky
ring thieves i'll order the better to catch them
is q very stupid afterthought Ii Mr.. Super
visor Tuition knew all the facts he now tells
Why has he kept them shut up in his cfica
and friendly breast SO long? He has been at
hand at Washington all the time, and yet
only now when some of the thieves are in
pail and Babcock has been ten days indicted,
does Tuition find voice.
The object of the Tuition explanation is to
screen Bapcock and to draw off attention from
his case, and TO save Grant from the sus.
picions Of connivance with the whisky
thieves, which are so strong and so general
This self-sacriticiDg official takes all the blame
an himself 1t was his eloquence, inspired
by official zeal, which induced Grant to re-
woke the order transferring the guilty officials
An exercise of authority which did not
belong TO the President but to Commissioner
Douglass and Secretary Bristow between
them. The Tuition story is too thin -Aeo

IMPORTANCE OF POLITICS.

The Philadelphia North american, in an
article on the importance of politics, says that
1t never seems to occur to a numerous class
who in this country affect to imagine that the
only matters supposed to be worthy of the at
tention OF an American gentleman are COM
mercisi, industrial and transportation business,
literature, and arts aud religion, as it does to
the corresponding class in Europe, that politics
include everything and relate to everything
in national and international life It says:-
eve do not fear to offend any rejecting cit>
izen when We say that it would better become
the educated and wealthy classes to profess
less contempt for politics and to know great
deal more of that subject; for in the case of
very many of them, if their respectability
and character were to lead to their election to
any important political Office it would only ex>
pose their want Of training and ignorance of
public interest, parties, principles and issues;"
and concludes: CHOW can any man vote in-
telligently in national elections who processes
openly to know nothing of the divisions, the
history, the principles, the leading men of
parties, OF of such matters as currency, bank
ing, protection, free trade, State sovereignty,
civil rights, maritime rights and interests,
commercial competition, &c2 We confess
that to any of the modern class of know
nothings who turn up their noses at these
subjects We infinitely prefer the gentleman
who reads his political journal carefully, and
who is posted about public affairs, and who
does not dread an argument about them in
any aspect that may be presented"
