GENERAL EABCOCK AND THE
PRESIDENT.

1t was charged some time since by
Carl Schurz. in the ST. Louis Westliche
Post, that the information furnished the
illicit distillers of that city was known
only to President Grant, Secretary
Bristow and General Babcock, the Pres
idsnt's Private Secretary. Since then
it has been ascertained that Babcock
was the individual who for considera-
ton furnished the crooked whisky men
with what they disliked to learn, yet
which it was all important they should
know, that is that Bristow contem-
plated the seizure of their distilleries.
It was too late to avert the crisis, how.
ever; the distilleries were seized, proof
that the revenue had been defrauded
was apparent in each and all, and few
OF the guilty were convicted and SEN
fenced. Babcock was also indicted,
and it now transpires that he knows too
much of the secrets of the White House
and prominent officials connected with
the Whisky Ring to quietly submit to
merited disgrace, while others equally
guilty escape. He has therefore be-
come defiant. and threatens the highest
officials in the country with exposure
and to disrupt the Republican party uu-
less he is acquitted. This threat has
frightened the officials and every effort
is being made to whitswash Babcock.
The President stands by him. not as
was supposed from motives OF friend
ship, but for self-protection. joyce,
who was convicted in St Louis, is
aware of this and has dispatched his
attorney to Washington with the Bah
cocx letters to the whisky ring, with
which he hopes to ransom his client.
These letters are considered sufficient
to insure the conviction of Baocock,
and it is therefore probable that they
will be exchanged at Washington for
pardon for Joyce. as Babcock must be
whitswashed to save the President and
other high officials implicated in the
whisky frauds.

This is reported by the master of the

not seeu after the accident occurred,
nor was any one picked up from the
shore. and this leads to the belief that
the vessel either filled by water pour
lug into the hold or she drifted upon
the rocks. which caused her 10 sink or
dash to pieces. At last accounts moth
ing had been picked up from the wreck
and this satisfies many that the vessel
sunk in deep water with her officers
