A Washington special says bitter
and irresponsible attack has been made
upon General Babcock, General Grant,
and the Republican party. 1t is as
serted that Babcock, since his return
to that city, has been manipulating
such testimony as may be- hurtful to
him in the pending trials, it is also
said that Babcock was the medium
through which all deviltries of the last
four or five years have been brought
about; that Babcock carried on the
San Domingo negotiations; through
Babcock the Seneca Sandstone robbery
came about; through Babcock the
French army cases were pushed
through; Babcock, Boss Shepard and
his gang thrust themselves into the
White House, aud bankrupted the city
by their thieviug; through Babcock
Casey received permission to issue mid
night orders; through Babcosk frauds
in the New York Custom House were
condonsd. The assertion among the
generally we'll informed is that in view
of these facts the st. Louis authorities
are to be crippled. Many other charges
are made rejecting upon Babcock, Bris-
tow. Grant. and the Republican party
in general.
