Of ,ccur Robe son.


Tho action Of the Na,al Department last
spring in sollingout the material ia the Charles
town N,,vy Yard is at last explained. 1t now
ntpcar- thut oN-S. rotary Rphoson ordered TIM"
snlc for the purpose of making an advance rav-
mcnt ou a contract made onthc 81 day OF March
of the present year with th' Providence Steam
Engine Company.
The contract was for boilers for i've sloors-of-
war. for which Hob"son agreed to pay tn" said
company thirty cents per pound. Other hoil"r
makers would hovrtakcu the contract for fl. on
cents % pound. and considered thus lattcr sum u
fair price. The ontract was not advertised for
according to law. but WIS negotiated between
the contracting parties ia Washington few
days before Rphoson retired from Office
Some add tional light is thrown upon the
character OF the contra. I when II IL understood
that Henry W. Gardner OF Providence is ono Of
the stanch political supporters " Senator An
thony Of the Senate Naval Commit Vs. and that
Mr. Gardner contributed $4,000 to the state
election fund Of 1876. which returned a egisla-
ture favorable to the reelection of Mr. Anthony
The Providence Steam Engine Company were
not considered solvent ten years aco but they
| havc been mt work for the Government cvci
since 1867 and ha,o accumulated lnrgc sum
which is not surprising when IT is known that
out Of this one contract alone they are said t,
reap clear profit Of sljo0OO.
In order that the contract might not he re-
vokcd by the incoming Secretary, 1t was nccos
sary to make an advance payment for whicl
purpose Rohcson ordered that the Charlestowf
Navy Yard be cleaned out 81 all its spare ma
terial. including the great steam hammer
which had cost the Government AN enormous
| sum. also boilers and engines which move
| had a fire under them and brass and iron IN
largo quaint tics the whole of which WIS sold a
n low price MS old Junk. and the proceeds turnc'
over To the Providence Steam Engine Company
An additional fact. which has caused som

Gathering His Army of Invasion.

While verbally dcprccating " irritation
Of popular feeling and mischanccs of action
on the Rio Grandc frontier, HAYES l. rapidly
collecting there n force too formiinhle To
serve merely az an army OF observation a
force which cannot fail to excite the alarm
md the countcr-massing of Mexico.
The twentieth Infantry are under orders
for TcNaa. as are also the Fourth cavalry
tMckFN2IE'sl or rather ten companies oil
the latter. AZ Companies Il and + have all
along been at Fort Elliott The Texans are
said to bc highly pleased that Col Nc
KEN2Ir's regiment is Ia return, as its COM
mander has 50 good record Of standing no
nonsense from the Greasors. Whether the
selection will he equally reassurng to the
Mcxcans. HAYES does not inquire.
The purpose of these rcdniorcements was
publicly avowcd in the Army bill debate OF
the extra session: they are not merely to
watch the frontier, they are to cross the
frontier. Tho Texans complained that ORD,
after properly garrisoning his forts, had
only Coo men left to hunt cattle raiders with
and now he i to have more. 50 that he may
conduct the BULLS raids on formidable
scale
These are not the only preparations that
HAYES is making. The Army bill allowed
him to recruit cavalry companies to hun
dred men each, for service on the Mexican
and Indian frontiers. He now asks that
authority be given him by Congress to re-
cruit all companies Of infantry &c" at teds
81 men," and every battery OF artillery to at
least Is men, "lrih porT. in cdse OF enier'
vencv, to increase the former to 100 ana the
latter to ~ men each"
IT is quite time that Congress should re
covcr from the senseless panic into whicl
the Texan detection ON the army question
threw it last month, that it should inquir'
the object of HAYEs's military mcnaco
against Mexico and that il should insist ol
knowing whether the resources of diplomac.
and Of friendly cooperation have been cX
haustei before lending any further aid to
policy which threatens to plunge the coun
try into war.

The House, in reporting the original bill,
included an item to pay the commission
which HAYES scut to Louisiana; but nSt"i
submitting it, Nj. ATKINS discovered that
opposition Vas to Toe made by Gen. BUTLEI
and others. and he had the bill recommittet
to strike out the thousands for WAYNE MAC

The country has had about enough of thes

While yesterdays votes were not in the

cate that it has more friends thcr"

Gen. GRANT takes the world easy, and
travels over Europe like royal parsonage.
Recently he occupied the apartments of the
Prince # Wales at the Hotel Bristol-the dear
est in Paris-and asked no questions about the
cost as prudent people, even with a liberal bank
credit to draw upon, are apt to do. Wherever
he and his family and their retinue 60, they
have the best and the most expensive accOmmo-

which il always imposed on distinguished and
high caste Travellers

In the deprcdations reported from Dead
wood the other day, as the beginning of new
war it is remarkable that there was no instance
of a white person killed or even touched by an
Indian. The six men who fought two hundred
Indians on tho Belle Fourche river say that
they killed three redskins, hut not one OF them
was injured at Maddens ranch the stock was
driven off, but no white man was hurt; at the
Sidney Road ranch the house was ransackcd,
but tho people were allowed to escape to the
woods az sulphur Springs, the wagon train
containing provisions was captured. and the
provisions taken, but the Deadwood stage
which reported the capture. WINS unmolested
Thus far the Indians seem chiefly to be after
