P1NcHBACK on PACKARD.-Nr. Pinchback,
in conversation with the correspondent OF
the San tonight, stated in the most positive
manner that Packard cannot maintain his
government, and it will inevitably fall to
pieces. He says that it is a falsehood out OF
the whole cloth for Packard to say that any
taxes are paid to him, and he says that
Packard'S government cannot go in the
market and raise ten dollars Washington
