"LEr NO GuILIY NAN ESCAPE"


Truly the developments in the trials
of the whisky ring ri ST. Louis, nm
earth more Inherent cussedness and
corruption in high places than we
could have believed existed in this
government, debOuched, though we
know it to be. The memorable words
of Secretary Bristow quoted above, to
which Grant stands firmly committed,
begin to ring out the doom OF the dear
est favorites and most trusted hench-
men.
Letters written upon the official pa
per of the White House, signed "Babn
indicate the most intimate relations
between the Presidents private secre-
tary and this ring of thieves, As the
Tribune says, the very hand writing of
Babcocll, now bears testimony against
him. There is something wonderfully
suggestive also in such kilograms as
these sent by Babcock to the ring ::
:" Had long ride with the President
this afternoon all right "Mnm's
the word" "rhe goose hangs altitu-
dilum." 81 have succeeded" Read
ing over these kilograms with the com
ments of the press thereon, cannot
prove u very agreeable occupation to
Bah" just now.
When will these disgusting and dis
graceful exhibitions of American cor
ruption have an end? Not until
Grant yields the scepter.

VNIoN SUNDAY SCHOOLS.

The editor of this paper was fortunate
enough to attend the very interesting
meeting of the Sunday schools of this
city last Sabbath. The singing was
admirable, and brought to mind the
sweetest, most pleasing recollections of
early life. The short eXtemporanoous
discourses TO the scholars, delivered
in the intervals of singing by the vari-
Gus ministers present, We're appropri-
ate, earnest and effective. We were
very favorably impressed with the
calm, easy, unaffected and impressive
utterances of the Rev. Mr.. Gano
Would that such unions We're ottener
held, and that the elders of the land
would lend the i"iluence of their pres
ence to such interesting and important
occasions. They would find the hours
spent in these gatherings pleasant
moments, indeed, and that the young
faces and pure, sweet voices of the
scholars would revive in their hearts
the hottest and modest impulses of
life

The New Constitution.
Editor Herald:

Editor Herald:
In surveying the grand features OF
the new Constitution, We are apt to
overlook very important isolated pro-
visions. For instance let new corners
and poor men read the following sec
tion of the article on public lands
"Section 6. TO every head of a
family without a homestead there shall
be donated one hundred and sixty
acres Of public land, upon the condi-
ton that be will select and locate said
land, and occupy the same three years
and pay the office fees due thereon.

THE NAVY YARD.-There is now
considerable actlcity in the Navy
Yard, In the removal of the shiphouses
to League Island, where they are to
be erected. The small house Is all
down but the eastern end, While the
tin has been torn from the sides of the
large house. There was no weather
boarding, the tin being nailed to the
upright tlmbers. This work is being
done by contract, Mr.. Mckay, of New
York, being the contractor. The small
shiphouse will be reduced In height
and used as a store house. A very
large force of workmen Is engaged
upon the Antietam," in the large
shiphouse, and the ways are being put
on her for launching, which will take
place about the middle of November.
Considerable Of the stores have been
removed, and before the close of the
present year the yard will have rather
a deserted appearance. Very little
work Is being done In any of the shops,
and the tools and material are being
earted to the piers for transportation to
the Island.-Ledoer.
