ADIOS, AGUADIENTE (!
The Last of the Crooked Business.
Two Arrangements.

There was q small attendance at the Unite
States Circuit Court on Thursday morning.
inasmuch as the interest taken in the crooked
business has materially fallen off Special
Agent Wheeler has left the city, following
Gen. Brady. aud now there are here only the
remnants of the revenue army.
The parties arraigned were W. A. Thomas,
ex-oficial, charged with defrauding the gov
eminent, who gave W. ]. Casten, Esq, as his
surety, for 5000, and J. R. Beals, who was
storekeeper at Ferenbach's distillery, ON the
same charge Mr.. Beals gave bond in the
sum of 5000 to appear. 1t was stated that
Mr.. O. II. Karstendyk would also be arraigned
during the day.
From the quiet reigning in the Custom
House, it is evident these indictments are the
last kicks on the part OF the Internal Revenue
Department, and that New Orleans will not
be favored with sensational trials and spicy
kilograms.
The government filed up this huge
"Graphic" balloon, but it is not probable
any attempt will be made to set it afoat over
the Atlantic Of jury trials.

with water. Mr.. Desposito has also made .
fine road on Bolivar street, making an outlet
from Poydras to Common streets, which was
few week ago in an abominable condition.
The shell road on Common street, as far out
as the White Bridge, has been filed, and is
now in good condition. This work will
doubtless be appreciated by the many persons
owning vehicles, who we're formerly COM
PEELED to 60 out of their way to keep from
being smashed up, and who now have fine
roads to travel on throughout the rear portion
of the Third Ward. The shell road on Com
mon street was formerly in such dangerous
condition from Galvez to Broad streets. that
all wagons, floats, ETC., were compelled to
abandon the idea of passing on that street,
and had to 60 squares out Of their way.

ofice-holding thieves as at this hour. None
feel SAFE Each thinks his turn may come
next. Hence there is running to and fro.
Private interviews are many and confidential
correspondence large Each plunderer and
bribe-bought official is fortifying with might
and main. Thousands of letters and tele-
grams are being cast into the flames. Danger
GUS witnesses are being hurried out of the
country or their eternal silence bought for a
price. Parties who know damaging and
damning facts are "seen" and besought, by
all that is holy and hellish, never, never, never
to divulge. The men in authority are now the
men who know the bottom facts in rascalities.
These are the men who can demand terms.

Belknap is dainty from head to foot. Hats

the smallest in Washington.
She wears number one and q half shoes,
though she is five feet six inches in height.
Slippers and boots Of satin for these dainty
feet come from Paris, and are always enough

most frequently wears consist of a string Of

GRANT AND HIS SENATE.

The President brought into his Office the
dangerous and extraordinary idea that he was
to command the country as he commanded
the army. 1t was personal Office. Repubh-
canism became Gantism. The function of
the Republican party ceased when it elected
him President, just as in Bonaparte's times
the function Of the French people ceased
to supporters, as Napoleon WAS wont to give
his crosses Of honor 10 reward personal SER
vices
Having laid down this pernicious principle
he first called to his Cabinet men who had
been his cronies and who had made q pleas
ant personal impression upon him. Then
he quartered his relatives and fatterers upon
the public treasury wherever he could find
room for them-from Kremer. who was made
Minister, down to the Dent who. we believe,
still owns . swindling trade store in New
Mexico. Having done this, and to strengthen
himself with the only power he had to fear
the Senate-he began at once to debauch
it with patronage. Senators were shamelessly
bribed, until the whole Republican majority
was debauched with power and place.
Every Republican Senator became creature
of the President. Wherever We look in the
country we find the federal offices filled with
the friends and fatterers of Senators. The
roll call in New York is little more than the
roll call of the friends Of Mr.. Conkling. In
Pennsylvania We have no one Iin Office who
can not swear allegiance to the tribe of Cam
eron. So down the whole blue book we have
list of the offices which have been used by
despotic and arbitrary President to degrade
the Senate.
This degraded Republican Senate, and
every Senator has the Presidents patronage
in his pocket like bride, became the coarse,
dumb, accomplishing register of his will
It is only worthy to be ranked with the
Ssnates of the late Roman Empire. When the
President at the outset of his administration
asked the Senate to allow him to violate a
law to oblige Q FRIEND. there was only one
Senator, the lamented and illustrious Sumner,
who dared to say in his place that the dignity
of a law was even. higher than the within Of
q President of the United States. The
example was soon forgotten. Every creature
Grant sent into the Senate was confirmed.
The only time when independence was shown
was when the President forgot to oblige some
Senator like the carpet-Dagger West. Then
the Senate interferred and claimed that "the
claims of States should be recognized" Even
Grant was not allowed to name officers in
such States as Alabama or Louisiana, for in
stance, who were not acceptable to West and
Spencer. So, from step to step, the whole
patronage Of the government was used for two
purposes namely, to aggrandize Ulysses 3.
Grant and to keep the Senate subservient to
his will.-Ne,o Yorlc Herald

ACCIDENT.
The Careless Handling of Firearms.
A Young Man Shot and Dangerously
Wounded.

Thursday morning about half-past o'clock.
young man named George Dease, employed
as q clerk in the Office of the Southern Ex-
press Company and residing on Calliope
street, near Clara, met with . serious, if not
fatal, accident at his residence. by the careless
handling of firearms. Mr.. Dease purchased
new revolver Wednesday and this morning
was in the act of showing it to his brother,
when the weapon accidentally went of, the
bullet taking effect in his left groin, infcting,
it is thought, dangerous wound.

viii Col. Dyer Tell What He Knows

A Washington special to the Baltimore
Gasette says: The Attorney General says
that he has not heard of any intention of re-
moving Col. Dyer, and does not think there
is any truth in the statement. An intimate
friend Of Mr.. Dyer, in Washington, said to-
night that it was understood Dyer would ten.
der his resignation in few days. He has
been advised, and so also has Col. Broadhead,
trial of the first whisky case, the Washington
officials assisted the District Attorney and the
special counsel in every possible manner; but
when it came to the trial of Babcock every
obstacle was thrown in their way, and not the
least of which was the letter of Attorney
General Pierrepont not to allow distillers to
testify. Should Col. Dyer follow the advice
of his friends, there will be such revelations
as the country little dream of.

General Schenck's Resignation.

The strenuous, repeated denials by the Ad.
ministration of Schenck's resignation were for
q purpose. The fact is that he resigned three
weeks ago. 1t is also true that his recall was
demanded by the British Government on the
ground that he had disgraced the country he
represented ana was corrupting the British
public.
The President concealed the fact that he
had resigned to enable him to evade the pro-
cess, which he did evade, as he was leaving
London. Grant, having got Schenck into the
scrape, felt that he could do no less than to
shield him as long as possible, which he GER
tainly has done. -Specid telegram to Gin Com.
