STREAMING AT A GNAT.

A Mrs. Boggs, of Macon, Missouri a
friend of Mrs. Grant, testified, Saturday
that she was given sinecure position at
500 per month, that of Pension Agent
at Macon, at the direct instance of the
President. If they wished to find who
have held such positions they have only
to call on Secretary Chandler, Judge Ed
muHds and others of the Republican
National Executive Committee, who will
doubtless testify that much of the work
of their committee has been done by
persons paid by the Government, and
working solely for the committee. If they
don't so testify, there is a statutory pro-
vision for indictment for perjury which
is entirely available.
TREASURY MONEY REMPoRTED MISSING.
The Committee on Expenditures in
the Treasury Department say that they
have reason to believe that several hun
dred thousand dollars belonging to the
Cotton Division can not be accounted
for, Investigating this matter, they sum-
moned Secretary Bristow to appear yes
terday, with certain papers, but he declin-
ed to produce them, explaining that
they were too valuable to be allowrd to
60 out of the files. The committee ac-
knowledge the force of the reason, and
will therefore go to the Department to
examine them.

and buggy ina peculiarway. On Thurs
day morning there appeared at the Presi.
dents stable, which is some distance from
the White House, man who is claimed
by the stable men as resembling very

House, and said that the President wished
for one of his favorite horses Immediately,
and directed the stable men to take the
tongue out of a light buggy and put in a
pair of thills, which was done, and the
man drove off. The horse was not re-
turned, and late that evening the stable
man reported it at the White House.
