.ih,,itv. We were speaking Of q question
"a conrt esy--whsthe IL was becoming in
the State to say that the Dispatch says 80
and so the Dispatch made this olunder ];
and the Dispatch did this, that, ana the
other thing; well knowing that people VINO
did not see the Dispatch would suppose ie'
the Stcte. was speaking of something In our
editorial columns.
The sketch or history OF an old building
which appeared1n this paper several years
ago-namely. the one about the state oapi-
tol--was written by the editor-ln-cniei' anu
appeared in the editorial columns, and we
know no reason why such sketches might
not as well appear there as elsewhere IN the
paper.
The State must Judge for itself. But as
for us, we promise never to follow It's
example. We shall never hunt over
its local columns to find errors, important OF
unimportant, and then speak OF them as II
they were the work of its editor. even though
he is responsible at law for them. More
than that: we shall never put meaning
upon its words which it never intended
them to bear, as it has done with words OF
ours in the following paragraph:
AS to "only reporter" the Dispatc; q,
can settle with the gentlemen it employs IN
what we, at least, consider an honorable
and trusted duty. The contempt implied
in the Dispatches words we do not feel lot
a branch Of the journalists profession quise
as indispensable and often demanding as
high qualities as any other.
We said that the State was engaged IN a
controversy "oniy with our local reporter
and not with us. The State misquotes us
as saving only reporter" and then pro
ceeds to say good word for the reporters
as class. We shall never, even IN retalla'
ton, treat the State in so unjust manner
We reported for the Dispatch ourself when
we first came to Richmond in 1861. we
would as soon speak disparagingly OF edt
tors as OF reporters. But as our language
cannot fairly be made to imply dlsrespec'
towards reporters, we will say no more OF
the subject.

omission OF Congress TO make an arpTopria-
tion for any specific posthas heretofore been
accepted as or indication OF wish on the
part OF Congress which the executive branch
OF the Government respected and COM
piled with. In calling attention to the passage
which have indicated, ] assume that the IN
tention OF the provision is only to exercise
the constitutional prerogative OF Congress
over the expenditures of the Government,
and to fix q time in which the compensation
Of certain diplomatic and consular officers
shall cease, and not to invade the preroga-
tive OF the Executive, which should be
compelled to resist; and my present object
Is not to discuss or dispute the wisdom OF
failing to appropriate for several offices, but
to guard against any construction that
might possibly be placed on the language
used as implying right in the Legislative
branchto direct the closing or discontinue
ancc OF any OF the diplomatic or consular
offices OF the Government.
Z. S. GRANT.
Erscutive Mansion, Washington, d. o.,
August 14th.
Three messages from the dictator claim
ing unlimited powers. But these are not
all. Here follow the two which he sent to
the Senate, the former OF which yetoes GER
tain bill and the latter OF which undertakes
to veto the veto-a claim Of power so alb
surd and unfounded that not one senator
rose in bis place to advocate the claim.
Here they are:

The Adiutant-G General OF the Army has
stated in communication to the Secretary
OF War that during the last five fiscal years,
ending June 80, 1875, there were over $1,000
assertions from the army. During the fiscal
year 1876 there were over $500 cases OF de-
sertion, or ten per cent. Of the entire force.
General Townsend says that the army
being small and scattered, there is little bar
to desertion except the sentiment against it
and the fact that a deserter may Mt any time
be arrested.

GENERAL FTTZ LEE.-Gcneral F1TZnUGH
LEE was president OF the Tappahannock Con-

he is hereafter to have rs one OF the chiefs
OF "a hereditary arlStocracy." But read

One Of the anomalies OF the centennial

MISSISSIPPI, ARMY OR no -ARMY.-Majol
K. III. GLASS writes to his paper from the
Blue Ridge Springs:
II have talked very pleasantly with some
very intelligent Mississppians who are here,
and they speak as confidently Of carrying
their State for Tiden and Hendricks as
we do OF carrying Virginia. They say they
can hold it even il the Federal courts and
the military, aided by Grants minions,
bring their power and Vaccinations to bear
upon the balot-boX. Ehis is certainly
cheering, and makes the Conservative heart
glad
Good for Mississippi. Let three out OF
the four States which GRANT intends to CO.
cree into voting for HAYES stand trm-or
even two OF them-and TILDEN will be
elected.
Or, rs we have shown elsewhere, we can
give HAYES all four of them and then beat
him.
