ticians. In anticipation Of suits to
recover, scores of them are convey
ing their property to their wives
and brothers, and scores more are
missing altogether. The confession
is a bomb. shell exploded ia the very
heart of the camp, and the constcr-
nation is widespread.
There is trouble among the rum
sellers. A strict Interpretation of
the laws makes it impossible for the
Excise Commissioners to grant
licenses to any except tavern keep
ers, and the commissioners in New
York and Brooklyn have resolved
to adhere to the law, and to prose-
cute all others selling. Already
several hundred suits have been
commenced against liquor dealers
who do not according to the law
keep inns or taverns. The law is
that licenses shall not be granted to
any one who does not keep three
spare beds, with proper bedding,
Tor the accommodation of guests,
which of course none of the saloons
or bars pretend to. The law officers
will push it, for they can get their
costs and fees, and consequently
there will be trouble. The temper
ance associations see in this an op-
portunity for new crusade upon
rum, and the dealers are girding up
their loins fer vigorous defence of
what they consider their rights.
There will be a vast amount of
speech making, and vast number
of arrests, but it will all amount to
nothing. Liquor-selling cannot be
restricted in u population like that
of New York, where large majer-
ity of the people drink, and where
rum is an element in politics and
makes and unmakes politicians.
Rum can elect whoever it chooses,
for that interest is solid, while the
opposition to it is always divided.
But there will be lively skrim-
mage over it.
PresidcntlIayes is gaining ground
in this city every day. Business
men Of all parties are wheeling in
to line in his support. While they
are divided somewhat as to the wis
dom of his Southern policy they are
willing to give it a fair trial, and
they all support heartily his efforts
to reform the civil service. lie is
the first President who ever paid
the slightest attention to ante-clcc-
ton promises, or who ever made a
positive attempt to carry out pledg-
es. The Custom House is being
thoroughly cleaned out. The sine
cures are being abolished, the dead
heads arc being turned out to grass,
and the force is being reduced to
the exact requirements of the bust
ness to be done. There is bowling
among the professional politicians,
but the contcnt of the citizens is
delightful. President Hayes is very
strong among the people, and he has
a strong party behind him, for the
people are convinced of his honesty.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Apr. 10, ~.
BY those protesting to stand in
very confidential relations with the
administration, it is asserted that
more sanguinc hopes Of an adjust
ment through the efforts of the Lou
isiana Commission are now enter
tanned than was thought possible q
few days ago. The assurances sent
in advance of the commission and
reiterated from time to time since,
that the troops would certainly be

reached or not, did not prcdispose
the Nicolls party to accept any
thing short Oft an absolute surrender;
and Packard, undoubtedly believing
himself honestly elected, and being
man of courage and determine.
ton, is not likely to yield except to
force. lie evidently believes the
decision is against him here, and is
man@uvring for u position from
which he can inflict the most dam
age on his cnemics-rcal or fancicd.
The firm refusal of some of the
Chamberlain officials to vacate their
places on summons from lamp
ton in advance of u decision by the
Courts, is generally commended by
those who believe Chamberlain was
wrongfully sacrificed. They arc of
course denounced as impudcnt Scar
pet baggcrs' by Democrats.
The war news has wonderfully
stimulated speculation and among
the first fruits is an advance of one
cent on every loaf of bread, with a
still further rise threatened. The
export business in brcadstuffs in the
ncighboring city of Baltimore has
never been SO large as during the
past month. The owners of ship
ping have also been madc glad by |
very material advance in frcights;
and from all our great cities come
advlccs of the same general tenor,
recording great increase of bust
ness. About all the European di-
plomats residing here have been
sounded by the cntcrprising report
er, and they all seem to agree as to
the almost certain declaration of
war within few days. Our gov.
eminent seems of the same opinion
and has ordered the concentration
of our European squadron at and
about Constantinople to watch
American interests.
All that | have hitherto written
relative to the completion of the
Washington Monument was based
on common report, and particularly
on the statements of tho Star and
Republican, both protesting to a
knowledge that the report of the
Board Of Army Engineers dcsignat-
Ell to test its foundations, would be
favorable. But the gentlemen COM
posing it have disappointed every
one by an unfavorablc report; and
It IS not known what steps, if any,
will be taken. If it is not to be fin
shed, the portion already erected
should be taken down, rs in its nm
inished condition, it stands re-
,roach to the country and renec-
ion upon our patriotism.

NEW York, April p, 1877.
Now, everybody knows why Oak
cy Hall ran away to Europe. 1t
was as said, Tweed. The Boss
had made up his mind to split on
his associates, Hall got wind of it
in time, and fitted. Twccd's cx-
pose is u curious and instructive
piece of reading. 1t shows that the
plundering of the City and State
was not the growth of time, but that
it was a plot, made deliberately and
very carefully worked up as to de-
tail, and one which required "a great
deal of skill to carry out. There is
squirming among the Democratic
politicians and explanations arc the
order of the day. Men who have
heretofore stood well in the COM
munity are quietly slipping away to
Europe, and those who stay arc for
tifying themselves with proof to
make some sort of a show against
the damaging disclosures Of the old
man in Ludlow Street. Several Re-
publlcans are already implicated,
and it is expected that more will be.
lie had tools in the Republican
camp Of course, for else he could
not have got the Legislation at Al
bany necessary to carry out his pur-
poses. Twenty millions of dollars
were distributed, and the Boss no
more guilty than the others, has had
to bear the brunt of the whole thing.
His share of the plumber has been
spent in litigation, he has grown old
in do1ging prosecutions and now is
n wreck financially and in reputa-
ton, while those who were his as
sociates in villainy are living COM
fortably and in good oder on their
shares. And what vcxes the old
man more than anything clsc is that
those who made the most OF IL are
those who were the first to turn up
on him. Between his rage and his
