because there might be reaso'a to suppose
that one of them contained evidence Of
theft. Yet, in this case, hundred of thou

A Gross Outrage.

Whatever may be thought of the mat
ter contained in the kilograms recently
published by the Boston Herald, purport-
ing to have passed between citizens Of
Massachus sets and General Butler in rela-
tion to the appointment of Collector Sim
mons, all persons Of common sense and
honesty will agree that the stealing and
placing before the public of such private
kilograms is gross outrage upon the
rights of citizens. This is part of the
fruit borne by the investigations of the
Confederate House. The investigators in
their zeal to prove corruption upon repub-
lican officials. not only searched into their
private accounts and family afiirs, but
took possession of hundreds of thousands
of private kilograms, including all that
passed over the Washington wires for
many months.
Nothing was found in these stolen des-
patches to prove corruption against the
persons under investigation, but the Con
federates who had Them in charge, fading
among them the private dispatches relat-
ing to Collector Simmons. peddled them
out to the Boston Hearald for publication.
Whether the dispatches have been garbled
or not no one can tell. Persons who
would steal and then publish private des-
patches or letters would not hesitate ia
alter or garble them IL is not however
what the dispatches contained that most
concerns the public, but the fact of their
publication. 1.-The laws of the land
says the Providence Journal. Senator An
thongs paper, 'have made correspond
ence by telegraph sacred as that by mail,
and the people of all classes have used
the telegraph with confidence in the pro.
lection of the law. How long will they
continue to do so If private kilograms may
be turned over to the hands of their
enemies for the qualification Of private
malice or public revenge.
1t may be said that these dispatches
were seized by the committee in the inter-
est of justice. Admitting the plea for the
moment. il Is fair question how far the
rights Of all the people may be invaded
for the sake or in the hope of convicting
one villain. No mans domicil may be
searched BY an officer without definite
and formal statement. under oath, of the
per ,on or Thing sought. Il would hardly
be perwitted TO an officer or court to open
= hundred private letters found in The mail,

The Confederates in the South have been
careful to retain in the nominations which
they have made all who are noted as faith
full to the rebel cause. The State of Geor-
gia, for example, has renominaed eight of
her nine representatives. and every one
has been passed with the countersign of
the lost cause. The notorious b. II. Hill
begins the list and Phil Cook, the cham
pion of the cotton tax refundiug scheme,
ends it. The rolls of other southern
States are no less conspicuous for their Of
fsnsiyeness to the loyal people of the ma
