Ct the good fruits SO lar as Virginia is

The only man appointed as yet from Virginia,
with the exception OF few local of6cers)is Mr..
Chamberlain, of Vermont, who has just been
made special agent Of the Treasury as re.
ward for permitting Luther Lee to deraud the
government Of $50. 600 whi!o he was Collector
at Norfolk, and MIR. Chamberlain was stationed
there to watch him Mr.. Hayes appointed Mr.

Office all of Richards oarpet.bag appoitees, in.
cludng MIR. Van Auken. who is reported to be
dctaulter to the State for $4,000 OF the
school fund, which, it is said, he appropriated
TO his own use when treasurer OF Surry county.
He appoints Mr.. Russell Collector of 1oternal
Revenue at Redmond, but it never once occur
red TO him TO interpose his authority TO save
the few Virginisus whom Russell found 10
office, and Mr. Russell first act was to dismiss
y grandson Of Chief Justice Marshall, but at
the same time gave him certificate that he
had been an excellent officer.

Mr.. Hayes has Just gwen US sootner specl-

fore alluded to the fac. that Major Bra1ton,
Collector at Norfolk, had requested 40 Invest-
CATION Of the accounts Of his predecessor, (Lse)
who was New \ crk carpet Dagger, and that
he had been found detaulter for about $50
COO Ira Ayre and Col. Chamberlain two un-
adulteratei carpet. baggers from Vermont Were
the special agents OF the Treasury. who acted
as inspectors Of the customs at that point and
whose duty it vas to detect aud report any lr.

stationed 10 Norfolk, aud this stealing went 90

man came into ohee he dismissed Cham berlain,
SIS he did not possess The first qualification for
the Office We then congratulated the Virginia
people upon their good luck in having gotten
rid of one Of the most obnoxious carpet. Dagger
ever developed by reconstruction. We hoped
soon 10 hear that Secretary Sherman had signi-
lied to Mr. Asre that as his services down here
were no longer required be could return to his
home 10 Vermont. Imagine then our surprise
TO sec il announced that 10 the absence of Mr..
Sherman the President has dismissed Moore,
who detected and exposed these frauds on the
Treasury, and has put Chamberlain, under
whose eye they were committed, in his place.
This IL reform with vengeance.
