The Whiskey Ring.

Some of the Republican Rings and
rogues who long fiourished with impunity,
and were protected by official power while
VIGOROUSLY engaged in plundeI1ng the
Government, appear to be coming TO grief
very Unexpectedly. JAMES 8. NEGLEY,
who represented Pittsburgh in Congress
for six years, and Il. Il. BUTLER, who rep
resented the First District OF Tennessee for
eight years, have been indicted at WASH
ingtou for conspiracy in passing fraudu-
lent cl aims through the Treasury.
NEGLEY and BUTLER were among the
most violent and offensive partisans on the
Repu blican side. They always supported
the EXTREMIST measures, and could be
counted upon with certainty for any
scheme or policy which the President de-
sired or was known to favor. This sub
seIviency was capitalized in the depart
ments and made "a source of large pecuni-
airy profit.
Four years ago BUTLER was indicted for
forging powers of attorney from widows
in Tennessee, through which he received
large sums of money due for their pen
sions. Although the proof of his guilt was
crushing, FISHER, then District Attorney,
first trying one of several cases in which
little effort had been made to procure tes-
timouy, and then dismisslng the others in
which II was complete. Being thus win
dicated," BUTLER took prominent place
in the party, and in the last Congress Mr..
BLAINE made him Chairman Of the Com
mittee on the Militia, placed him third on
Indian Affairs, and made him member Of
the select Committee on the Centennial
| Celebration.
The cases in which BUTLER and NEGLEY
| now figure, were claims for supplies
alleged to have been furnished to the
army during the rebellion. They were
fabricated outright, and the least investi-
CATION on the part Of the accounting officers
must have discovered such barefaced and
daring frauds. But these members OF
| Congress were powerful enough to over
come all the usages Of the department,
and in one case TO have rushed it through
in a single day long after office hours,
through the direct connivance Of the
Treasury officials.
Since the conviction of JOYCE at St
Louis, the Whiskey Ring seems TO be
wholly demoralized. Indicted official,
who had put bold face on the matter, and
were until very recently quite defiant IN
their assurance, have suddenly abandoned
their pleas of mot guilty." confessed theiI
crimes ana turned States evidence. Great
CONSERVATION was produced at Washing
ton by the confession OF FTTZRoY, former
ly deputy collector OF Internal Revenue
at ST. Louis and Treasurer of the Ring
FITzRoY made all the disbursements FOL
securing influence, and knows every per
son who was employed and the amount o
money he received. 1t ia certain that h
kept record Of the payments, the dates
and the names, for his own protection IL
case OF accidental discovery. Finding tina
he and few Others were likely TO be mad
scapegoats and punished, though no NOR
guilty than confederates mt the capital whit
demanded "a share of the spoils and helS
high places, he determined TO pull dow
the pillars OF the Ring, and make all tn
benefciaries suffer in common ruin.
] This purpose was perhaps intensified be

We were particularly interested in seeing
the success Of the brooklyn revival meeting OF
SUNDAY evening. 1t was the FIRST meeting vet
held for tie exclusive advantage Of unrepentant,
unconverted sinners. In advance of II the an
nouncement was made that II would be for
"unbelievers I" but Preacher MOODY RETAINED
from using this word, which might be offensive,
and said that tue meeting was to be for people
who were not church members or regular at
PENDANTS At church. Admission was by tickets,
which were distributed as far IA possible only
among persons Of the kinds referred TO. 30 we
must presume that the audience was made up
Of "unbeievers," in the technical religious
sense OF the word, though, perhaps, but small
proportion OF them would have been willing to
be thus described. 1t is, Of course, Brother
kooDYs idea that genuine believers will Join
the church, OF at least attend II.
Well, the meeting for sinners was successful,
so far as the attendance OF vast multitude
could make It so. The Rink held its thousands,
and there were other thousands outside who
could not get In. MOODY preached In his ordl-
n,ry wav. and sANKEY sang with his usual effect.
The reporters describe the close and eager
attention of the sinful audience. Many re-
NAMED after the end Of the regular services to
talk with MOODY, SANKEY, and their assistants,
about the salvation Of their souls. and we infer
from the accounts that considerable work was
done.
1t would thus appear after all that there Is 40
tuslly an "awakenng" among the wicked
classes, or the unconverted classes, or the nom
church-gong classes OF Brooklyn. II seems
that many Of them are In an anxious state Of
mind and willing at least to learn how they
shall forsake their evil ways. There has been
complaint heretofore that the revival audiences
were made up OF pious ueoplc, or those nomi-
Dally pious; but the special interest Of Sunday
nights meeting lies In the fact that this could
not be said OF It. MOODY, SANKEY, and their
coadJutors, should exercise all their energies in
taxing advantage OF the state Of things in Brook
lyn which has thus been brought to the public
notice,

The armchair on which the old grandfather
sat the cradle wherein bAny rocked, dear
for their sake hut tba the chair aud cradle could them
selys he informed with meaning or beauty never had
occurred to them peOple OF taste up 10 within lew
years agOl.-IrIbuHe.
The young editor is an authority on all that
concerns babies, yet We join issue with MIN on
the cradle question. From time immemorial
mothers have taken delight In making their
babies look pretty In nice clothes, 1ne linens,
and muslins aud laces; and they Uniformed"
their cradles with all the beauty they could de-
wise. It is true the old-fashioned cradle was
not so fanciful as the new-fanRled arrangement,
which swings In the air on rustic poles, but 1t
was well adapted to It's purpose and often at
tractive In shape. So far " we can remember,
We always found IL an entirely satisfactory thing
to sleep in, the motion OF the rocker, gently
touched by the maternal foot, being very agree
BILE 10 the baby. The old mahogany cradles
would sufice for generations of babies, and they
had a solidity about them which we fail Co mud
In their modern substitutes. Revise your opn-
ions on cradles young editor. You are wrong,
and do gross injustice to the mothers OF the
past. Many of the greatest men who ever lived
were rocked In the cradles which you say were
uniformed with meaning or beauty. We were
all babies once, young editor. you know, and
We don't like To have our cradles abused. JAY
GOULD, set the Powerful Mind right on this I'm
portant point.

You cannot dine with merohlnt prince or
his ugder clerk but YOU snail be drstrn vita discus
si.ns Of dados chests from HOLLAND, Vr EgJ 2tI1l
pottery fbute.
What Islander on our merchant princes and
their under clerks When they ask the young
editor To dine thew yell at him about dados,
chests, and pottery until he becomes deaf, do
thew We deny the charge. They do nothing
OF the sort. BE more careful In your language,
young editor. You mean that a certain class Of
people-includlug, however, very few merchant
princes or their under cerks-are just now cul-
tivating and INDUCING a taste for bric-a brac,
and that with people OF like tastes they some
times discuss olu pottery ware, and the furni-
ture OF a hundred years ago and more. But
they don't yell at the top OF their voices at din
ner tables. The subject does not admit Of such
an cutlery, aud taste forbids II. We observe
that, like some school girls, the young editor Is
given to an absurd exaggeration OF epithet.
Chasten your style, Powerful Mind. Describe
things as they are. when we hear Vasslr
freshman calling a thing which Is not altogethe or
agreeable terribly ugly" or "horriole," and
one that ls pleasant "toO lovely for anything, -
We smile aud are rather amused at the childish
exaggeration; but when JAY GoULD's young
editor thus misuses adJectives, we wonder how
he came to be selected to edit the stock gam.

A bill I'm equity. recently fled in the SUI
preme Court Of the District Of Columbia, gives
some interesting Information showing where
$4,000 went OF the missing funds OF the poor
negro depostOrs ia the Freedman's Bunk. The
bill sets forth that Ola April ~, 1871. the Young
Mems Christian Association Of Washington was
indebted to the Freedman's Saving and Trust
Company In the sum above named. for which a
promissory note was given, payable two wears
after date, with seven per cent. interest and TO
secure the payment Of this note, deed Of trust
upon the building and lot OF the association WAS
executed, that ia case default was made Ia
the payment Of the note, the property should be
sold aud the proceeds applied 20 that purpose.
The dill CHARGES that this note has long been
due and unpaid. while the interest paid
only TO Oct !, 1873 that the defendants, though
often requested TO repay the sum n money
loaned on the aforementioned promissory
note, have refused aud still refuse to do So /;
and that the validity Of the deed Of trust Is now
denied, All adverse opinion Of counsel having
been obtained. In plain English, tho Young
Mems Christian Association OF Washington
managed to get from the swindlers who ran the
Freedman's Savings Dank-probably In return
for the moral influence OF their support-tbe
sum Of $53.00O, made up from the first fruits Of
the hard earned savings Of the eman cipated
building for the use OF the association.
They made a pretence OF giving security for
the loan by executing an invalid deed of trust
upon the property and having got possession OF
the money, bave since not only refused to pay
either principal or interest, but ure endeavorinR
10 evade legal proceedings for les collection on
the ground that the deed Of trust was trick, a
fraud, Informal, and OF no account. Very Ike
ly this defence Will be successful, as II seems to
have been skilfuIly devised. ! here has been Il
good dead Of meanness displayed IN the various
plans adopted by persons connected with the
White House and Washington Rings for the
purpose Of che ting the negro depositors in the
defunct bank, but we think this is the most
dirty trick that has yet been unearthed. We
respectfully request Messrs. MOODY and SAN
KEY to devote special attentio on to the case Of
the Young Mems Christian Association Of Wash
ngton, and 10 pray fervently, not for them, but
that there may be no more like them. We wish
1t distinctly understood that we do not ask any
prayers In their behalf.

cause the partners at Washington instead
Of keeping their agreement, after the first
explosion OF public wrath mt the discovery
of the frauds, had striven to shield them
selves by donouncing their associates mt st.
Louis and affecting to urge their ptosecu-
ton. The facts in possession of FITzRoY
must lead to terrible exposures, and his
appearance before the Grand Jury doubt
less caused the report few days ago that
Mcasurer BABCoCK and ORvIL GRANT had
also been indicted.
While the rumor Of these indictments Is
not yet verified, the public is ready to nc
cept the charges as true. II Ia notorious
and capable OF proof that BABCoCK has
grown rich in Office without having had
any ostensible means but his pay as q
colonel Of engineers. His name IL public
ly associated with the Washington Ring. the
Postal Ring, the Indian Ring, the Whiskey
Ring, and jobbery of all forms. His certifl-
Gates to fraudulent measurements for
SHEPHERD, EVANS, and that crew, are Of
record. His sudden wealth is visible. How
it was acquired in Ave years is no secret.
The Presidents brother has tiafIicked
openly and wherever chance offered up-
on his connection and influence. In Chi
cago, in ST. Louis, on the Indian frontier, at
Washington, and in tins city, he has made
his brotherhood a matter OF merchandise
without couccalmcnt. II front door or
u back door or n window was open or
could be forced by which he might enter
into the Whiskey Ring, IL may be safely
assumed ORvIL GRANT got in aud exaoted
an interest in that enterprise which could
afford TO pay half u million week in
Addition. Division, ana Silence, and get
rich besides.
Personally, the President himself was
the great prop of the Whiskey Ring.
When Mr.. BRisrow made his first move
against that powerful combination last
winter by an order suddenly changing the
Supervisors of Internal Revenue so rs 10
break the connection with Washington.
MCDoNALD, the Supervisor ut st. Louis,
now under Indictment went TO the capi-
tul in style with fine team of fast horses,
established himself in favor at the White
House, and was able to procure a
revocation of Mr.. BRIsTow's admins
trative order without the least delay.
The President did not dcign TO consult
lne secretary OF tne treasury, anu ihe
first BRIsrow knew OF this insulting re-
vcrsal of his well considered act, was the
written command of the President not ~
execute il.
The Whiskey Ring furnished large
part OF the money for maintaining the Re-
publican organization in the West and
South. subsidized the chief organs Of the
party there, and was n political power
