was actually stolen or appropriated by
the Indian agents for their own hnc.

deny that those ignorant savages had
good cause for complaint against the
great father! 1t was the duty Of
the appointing power to see that hon

committee ascertaincd the fact that the

/ SINS OF OMISSION. - What did
Grant meau by failing in hi, message,
to mention the death Of hi. associate,
who held the second office in the gift
Vi the people, and one of but little
less consequence than the one he holds
himself! This is all the more strange
when the fact il, that Mr.. Wilson
died only few week, before the mes
sage wa. sent into Congress. There
was another glaring omission in this
electioneering document, namely, a
failure 10 say one word of censure,
advice, or, in any other way. about
that most stupendous of all frauds
and villianies, the st. Louis Whisky
stealing. Perhaps he was aware Of
the fact, that the lightning would
strike centre, near the gate Of his
mansion, commonly called the White
House. and perhaps he feared to stir
up with Presidential pole, the rot
tenness of the whisky ring. These
two omissions, especially the latter.
are truly significant, and it will not do
to excuse himself on the plea of over
sight in the first instance, and because
he thought in the second case, that
such matter was not, properly, the |
subject of Executive interference. |
Such excuses would be entirely "too
thin"

THAT monstrous monopoly, the Ex-
press Companies of the country. are
likely, under an honest Democratic
Congress, to have some of their revenues
cut down. A former postal law al
lowed transient newspapers, periodi-
Gals, &c, and third class mail matter,
such us four pound bundles of mer-
chandise, transmitted at just half the
present rates of postage. That law
was repealed at the last session of
Congress, through the lobby influence
of the Express Companies. The old
half rates will be restored, and this
will be of immense benefit to every
one, except the extortioners. Glory.
