OFFICIAL CORRUPTION.

Every day the telegraph is laden
with reports of frauds unearthed ana
corruption exposed in some depart
ment of the General Government. II
looks rs if thieving was the rule and
honesty the exception of Grants adj
ministration. The majority OF Federal
officials vie with each other in stealing,
until people are forced to believe that
the President has either been very IN
fortunate in his selection, or all who
seek appointment are thieves. The
st. Louis and Chicago crooked whisky
Investigations show that almost every
officer connected with the Revenue
Department in Illinois and Missouri
combined with the distillers to defraud
the Government, and that the ring
thus formed had the White House in
its setting, and was advised and
directed by the Presidents confiden-
tial friend and Private Secretary, Gen.
eral Babcock. In San Francisco
Naval Paymastsr's Clerk stole over "a
million dollars from the Government
and left for parts unknown.
In Washington, under the shadow
of the Capitol and White House, mil
lions were fraudulently expended by the
Shepherd ring, and embezzlement and
defalcat;on are general throughout the
Union. To-day the dispatches bring the
news of gross col Iuption at Norfolk
Navy Yard, in which the Republican
Executive Committee is implicated. 1t
is nc surprising that Blaine attempts to
attract attention from these exposures
of fraud and corruption among officials
by Appeals to sectiona'ism and revi-
val of the hates and prejudices engen-
dered by the war. It is not strange
that dead issues should call forth bitter
ineective from an aspirant for Presiden-
tial henors on the side which is re-
sponsible for this sad state Of affairs,
but it will indeed be astonishing if such
tactics prevent the majority in the
House of Representatives from investi-
eating those frauds, and holding those
who are responsible for their existence
to q strict accountability.

The reasons that the Central Pacific
Railroad will not issue excursion tickets
to the Centennial Exhibition, are given
by the general passenger agent: Ii ex-
curslon tickets were made, regular pas
senger business would be ruined, since
no one would go East without excur-
sion tickets, which would be sold at
at Omaha or some other point beyond.
Another difficulty would be to satisfy
the public with any reasonable reduc-
ton.

PLAGIARISM.

"Of the class ef wilful plagiarists,' says
Edgar A. Poe, mine out of ten are author.
Of established reputation, who plunder re ;
condite, neglected, or forgotten books"
The thefts of Stern from Rabelais, and the
wholesale appropriations of Charles Reade
the free lance, the Jim Fisk of literature
from everybody will Immediately occur
to the mind in confirmation of this asser-
ton. Again: "all literary history demon
strates that, for the most frequent and pal
pable plagiarisms we must search the works
of the most eminent poets" Virgil was
but the weak echo Of Homer, and Persius
of Horace, and, to descend to the bottom
Of the ladder, such writers as Owen Mere
dith and Sydney Dobell are only feeble
limitations of Tennyson and Keats.
Whenever the reader comes across two
or three condolences or parallelisms o.
thought, and is at a loss TO know the orig
inal, let him select as that original the on
which is most briefly and epigrammatical'
ly put, for the purloiner of other men
ideas always amplifes Or exaggerates.

| The Sun

To tn ocean isle, and in tn ascending

Professor Longfellow dilutes these three
lines into seven, as if to show the ductility
and malleability of thought, thus:

The balance in the hand Of Time,
O'er east and west its beam impended:
