peared my neck gradually increasing In size until
a tumor formed OF such immense size could see 1t
by turning my eyes downward. All this time was
taking various remedies for my blood without any
substantial benefit.

who, during hts treatment Of six months anced the
tumor eight times, which cost me nearly S400. This
left with rough aggravated sore, without at all
diminishing the size Of the tumor, and in sickly,
feeble condition. I consulted another physician in
Natck, who, after considerable time, succeeded in
healing the without reducing the size. At this
point commenced to Vegetiae, through the ear
nest persuasion OF friend. After had taken this
medicine about week 1 experienced wonderful
sensations. My whole body seemed to be undergoing
rad ical change, until finally, the tumOr broke and
discharged frightful quantities. From this time it
decreased In size until the bunch disappeared, but

Negetine is used according TO directions. There is
not a of Scrofua in existence that Vegetine will

Mr.. Attorney-GeneralP IERREPoST denies
with emphasis that he disclosed the plans OF the
prosecution to BABCoCK's counsel, and declares
he has no acquaintance with EMORY SroRRs,
who found II necessary to pass a month at WASH
lngton In preparing for the trial and construct
ing a theory OF defence. This denial may be
technically true, and yet morally false. There Is
hardly any doubt that MIR. PIkRHEPoNT did in
form the President Of the nature and extent Of
the testimony In the hands Of the Government
against BABCoCK. Whether GRANT cOmmuni-
Gated that Information TO SToRRs or to some
body else II not yet known, but the counsel DOS
sessed 1t, and shaped their defence accordingly.
HORACE PORTER, who preceded BABcocK as
Secretary 10 the President, and who knows u
great deal more than he has ever told or proba-
bly, will ever tell about crooked whiskey and
thousand other ways Of making Illicit money, was
In Washington during this particular time, and
10 constant communication with .he Attorney
General. His anxiety for BABCoCK's acquttal
was intense, and probably in great degree per-
sonal. He would consequently have been a safe
channel OF communication between the Attor-
ney General and the defence OF BABcoCK.

Refunding the Back Pay.

1t is not worth while for members OF
Congress to discuss the return of the back
pay at this late day. IL is the merest waste
OF time. Reduce the pay Of the President
for the future. Make that certain; and do
not delay the enactment OF bill to that
end by idle talk about money which can
no more be regathered than the autumnal
leaves which have been scattered by the
four winds of heaven.
Cut the Presidents salary down to what
IL was before the time OF Gen. GRANT. The
increase has not done even him any good !;
while 1t was productive of harm to the
country. 1t encouraged him in IMPROVE
dent investments and wild speculatons,
until, even with his fifty thousand dollars
year. he was compelled to sell his old
war horse TO negro for ten dollars and to
mortgage his Long Branch property to
extricate himself from debt.
You might rs well talk about getting
Gen. GRANTS increased pay from him US
getting theirs from the members of Con-
gress who have taken it, and retained it
until this time. Let it go, and take care Of
the future. Pass the bill, and send 1t to
the President He has hardly sufficient
hope of third term now to withhold his
signature.

Getting Hot for Them.

A man might as well be in hell without
n fan, ms IA Republican Cabinet Minister
with "A Democratic House," lately remark
ed that distinguished theologian, the Hon.
ZACK CHANDLER, Secretary of the Interior.
The figure is strong, but it has the merit OF
suggesting forcibly the actual situation of
those members OF the Cabinet who now
stand close by the fires of retribution.
With q Republican House they had no
need of fans They could keep as cool as
their impudence, and rake in their piles
with steady hands, fearing no Congress
sional warming. No investigating COM
mittee asked them impertinent Ques-
tions; and if some imprudent newspaper,
or some audaciOus Democratic Representa-
tive put disagreeable complexion on
their acts, their Republican retinue in the
House either coughed II down and held
their hands uplifted at the idea of such
impious irreverence, or ii forced to make
formances, the majority could safely be
relied on TO stop questioning just short of
the bottom facts They knew how to mix
the thickest sort of whitewash, and to
cover up any cracks beginning TO appear
IN Cabinet regulations. GRANT, DELANo,
WILLIAMS, robson, CREswELL, RICHARD
SON, and all Their chums and cronies could
always retire from these judicious iuvesti-
cations with serene souls and the whtest
Of coats. Then the Republican party rs
whole would daub on another layer of
whitewash, and cry out TO the people,
Did you ever see such clean and sweet
lot of fellows? There il no mud OH them.
They don't need any fans. They are not
in the pit. They are on the cool highlands
of patriotism, and the zephyrs do the fan
ming for them"
But whitewash is n poor concealer of
cracks and rottenness. II is liable to be
rubbed Off and experienced eyes, knowing
why it was applied, easily detect the dirty
and broken places II thinly covers. A sound
reputation needs no whitewash, aud that
the people of the country understood. so
they turned out the whitewashers kicked
over the pail, and threw the brush out of
the window of the Capitol in which they
put men whose Office it was to discover,
not TO cover up, the rotten spots.
The new House of Representatives has
been in session only about three months,
and yet that has been long enough for them
to display Grantism as it is, and to destroy
all its hopes OF perpetuating itself in the
Government 1t has made it rs impossible
for any candidate for the Presidency who
favored or flattered or used or protected
Grantism, to be elected, as for GRANT HIM
self to get nomination for the third term.
Surely this is good hundred days work.
There never wasa better done in the Capt.
toll.
But it Is only begun, this work of purihca-
ton and exposure. The colleagues of JACK
CHANDLER may well bewail the evil day
when their fraud failed longer TO deceive
the country. Not only are their chances
OF making more money gone, but what
The sun. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1833-1916, 1876-03-15

they have taken burns in their peck cts,
and it's blinking Is discovering the thieves.
Meantime a pail rests over the GRANT
society of Washington. 1t Is in truth q
season OF fasting for them. We hear OF
GRANTS dependency because MARSH told
and was not hanged rather than allowed to
squeal; because brother ORvIL was COM
PEELED to utter his artless tale of jobs put
up at the White House by fraternal affec-
ton; because KILDoURNE will have to tell
ali about that Washington Ring pool In
which GRANT and the valiant Prince FRED
were among the confederates. The outlook
upon the world seems very black just now

JACK CHANDLER IL right. The situation
Of n GRANT Cabinet Minister just now IL n

But better that the whole city should be
