COOKED REPORT.

=. =
According TO statement made by
Mr.. Windom in the United States Sem
ate only q short. time ngo, tho amount
of dedication in the various Govern
mental departments, from 1879 10 June
30th, 1876, aggregated only Sl,27G.-
Ss2 so. This statement was prepared
by Assistant Secretary Conunt, aud has
COMO forth to tho county rs correct,
Appearing rs it docs in tho Congregational
Record Of August 18th. This, in itself,
might be regarded as very fair stealing,
but asubscquent report from Secretary
Bristow, upon n Senate resolution of
February, 1876, calling for statement
Of oil balances duo tho Government
from public officers, and from other par
ties no longer in tho public services,
threw DIR. Commits report in the
shade, by showing that Republican
officials wero much moro enterptising
Than Dir. Conant would give them cred.
1t for; Tho statement OF balances by
AIR. Bristow was $500, sos 81. Now
the presumption is that AIR. Conant is
"a heightened gentleman, and the de-
throned Secretary is unworthy Of
belief, but, nevertheless wo will take
