1t is not alone the shame of US. Grant,
it is an infamous, burning shame to this
nation, that notorious corruptionist, like
the man known as Boss Shepherd, should
be able to exert greater influence over
the president of the United States, in a
matter pertaining to the administration of
the government, than majority of the
members of the cabinet. The order OF
Grant issued at the solicitation of the man
Shepherd, stopping the proceedings for
the retirement of the official corruptionist
Fisher, is one of the most shameful acts
U. S. Grant ever committed. 1t is also
one of the dirtiest acts that ever reflected
shame upon the American nation. 1t will
provoke, all over the country, the question
whether Boss Shepherd and U. S. Gran
have been partners in the thievish work oil
the corrupt District of Columbia ring?-

In. Ja-RsAf.s---i see in your Issue
az the i0sh Inst. communication
frpus the County superintendent xis-
Ing fsis version ri the 'sextra d'ssiaF'
aues,Inn. in which he charges one
wish jeaying out the "niest import
ant 1.ess In the csse,r and proceeds
"a make his statement thereof.
View rhe facgs 10 the case are a.
rolfoa-. The young lady appeared
at ,an residence of the superinsend-
eat Cor examination; hut not find
him at home. and having understood
that his daughter MAS IN the habit Of
making examinations In his ahrence,
she asked IL such was not the c7ssp,
tn efich she received an Affirmative
sn~wer. There was nothing said
about pay until after the examifia-
,lpn was ninde the sup'i's assertion
10 the contrary nofwith-tandingi.
After the examination was over, and
the young lady informed that she
was entitled to a certificate, she
asked about tie fee, and paid one
dollar surprising that she was pay
ing the fee provided for ny law. Az
Ter the dollar was paid and not be.
fore she Was informed that she
would have to pay another dollar,
before she could get certificate.
Later In the day. when he Issued the
certificate, the Sup't insisted upon
tie payment Of an additional dollar
over the protest Of the candidate that
she had paid the fee, and made it
necessary for her TO borrow the
money therefor.
The concluding paragraph Of the
superintendent article contains the
following:
"If the young Lady did not wants
10, or could moi come Ia Oh the regu-
lar day for examination, or when ]
am ut home, she had wright to 90
70 my Daughter, or 10 any other La
dy Teacher; or If she pleased 10
Prof's.. Nc. kee Roberts, or Young,
and get examined Mt price as they
may agree np0n,o etc.
True, the law authorizes the Su-
periDtendent to call to his aid In
making examinations such persons
a. he may think proper, but the idea
Of making examiners Of all the lady
teachers In the county Is certainly
both rich and original. But how
was the young lady to know that
she had such wright? Ii GER
tainly was never made public until
the 10Th Inst, and was no doubt got
up TO help pave the way out Of an
embarrassing predicament.
The great hobby with tho Super
intendent Is Compensation for his
daughters services" In performing
labor for which he Is paid by the
county. II she must be paid for her
services he Is the very person to pay
her, as he appears 70 be well paid for
such Jobs, Judging from tho follow
ing, which IL an extract from one Of
his bills presented to tho Board Of
Supervisors, aud allowed:
Apr 18th Examined Miss
Hammond 3 90
Nth Examined Miss
Marsh Q 90
{" 9th Examined Miss Scott . 90
The whole thing looks To me very
like concerted plan to obtain more
money for the discharge Of his du-
ties than the law allows and im.
agine that II makes very little differ
ence with the superintendent who
makes the examination or who gets
the extra compensation, SO long ms IL
goes into the pocket OF u member OF
his family. -.
