Hard Pat to For an Ex cr,,.

The Radical leaders and men holding
high official positions in this neighbor-
hood have caught up the language of
Boston Radical journal and are heard
using it in the street cars and other pub
lie places as an excuse for Belknap's
frauds. 1t is merely reharsh Of the old
charge against the Rebel General Floyd
whom they! allege was Democrat and
stole the arms and munitions of war and
sent them south. Men who have betl er
sense than to use this lang uage ought to
be told that they were trying to delude
the people. We presume, however, that
there are very few who are such fools as
to give heed to it. Floyd was cxonerated
of these charges by committee Of Con-
gress. But then if it had been true,
Floyd did not steal to put in bis own
pocket. His fraud, if we admit that he
committed one land we don't care even
to deny that he did steal,) was not for
himself Ike Belknap. If Helknap had
stolen from some government to help his
own,Floyd's case might be cited as per
allel. But the donkeys who make use o.
Floyd to excuse Belknap, if they prov,
anything, only prove that Floyd " as pa
triot to the Confederacy and Belk nap g
thief or traitor to the United States. Ant
it begins to appear that while there wer
few or no thieves in Richr hond, Wash
ington has been crowded with them. An

Mr.. CLYMER has been censured by
some of the Race newspapers for suf-
fering Marsh to leave Washington after
testifying against Belknap. But the
facts prove that the whole committee
as ed that they were done with him.
1t is said Grant and the Radicals would
have had him hung. And perhaps they
wor d have treated other informers so toe
If thereby they could stop disclosures
But this censure of Mr.. Clymer is al
nonsense. Nj? "sh will no doubt COM
