Further Discoveries.

The infdelity and dishonesty developed
in the CoLEMAN-MAYo case were yesterday
called to mind when General ASA ROGERS,
the Second Auditor, brought to the atten-
ton of the Legislature new discoveries OF
faithlessness and frauds practiced through
the Treasury Department while under, as is
naturally supposed, the administration OF
Mr.. MAYO that increase the amount OF loss
to the State, as well as can be ascertained,
to somewhat above $4,000.
It is sad thing that the infdelity OF one
or more officers and the neglect OF some
clerks should be extended thus to Ve& and
distress innocent persons. The proverDlal
honesty and probity Of official character IN
Virginia have to some degree led to sort OF
neglect OF form, which is involved IN the
history OF the fraud and embezzlement hrst
developed in the CoLEAkN-MAYo case,
Nevertheless. what system or order can
protect public trust from malfeasance OF
misieasance where dishonesty combined
with opportunity leads to rascality? Look
ut examples OF amazing defalcations in
those communities most famous, for vigl'
lance and jealousy, and where systems Of
accountability are most sagacious and rigid
General ROGERS, who has been known
and appreciated as one OF the most excel
lent OF men privately, and one OF the mos
honorable and trustworthy Of public men
for near forty years; has frankly brought The
matter OF the malieasance in the Capitol
OF the frauds accomplished through thu
financial system prevailing thereto TIT
attention OF the Legislature. He has dom
this in advance OF the period for the cleo
tion Of the officers OF the basement, tina
the matter may be considered before tina
day, and be. has asked that . committee may
be raised to investigate It.
The most earnest and systematic examl
nation OF the books oftheofice has been 10
some time carried on, and comparisons hav
been made with the entries 10 the record
OF other offices. 1t Is believed that th
frauds have been we'll examined, and tina
the aggregate amount OF the embezzlemen
10 pretty nearly ascertained. Certainly
inh insestigation Of the affair should noy
pe made. The strategies Of the nniaithfI

In making the nomination OF Judge Allen

around me, and from the promptings OF my

nation for the high and responsible position

SOUTHERN HISTORICAL SOCIETY PAPERS for
December, completing their fourth volume,
just out, and copy received from the sec
rotary, Rev. j. WILLIAM JONES. This No.
contains eighty pages Gorty-eight pages con-
stitute the usual issue), and yet the editor
speaks Of several papers which were crowd
ed out for want Of room.
The first article is "a Review" by Gen
eral j. A. EARLY, OF the articles previously
published on the battle Of Gettysburg.
This paper, written in General EARLY's
best style, is a very able defence Of the con-
duct Of General EwELL at Gettysburg, a
touching tribute to the memory of this gal
LIANT soldier, detailed account of what
General EARLY saw and heard as Gettys-
burg, and very able analysis of the causes
OF our failure there. He publishes for the
first time detailed account OF the confer
ence which General LEE had with Generals
EwELL, EARLY, and RHODES the evening OF
the first days battle, at which General LEE
said, after deciding that LoEGsrREET should
attack on the right, carly the next morn
ing: =. t'.ao,..;'' +; :" 20 So.
"sWell, il / attack from my right, LoSG-
STREET will have to make. the attack !; and
after a moments pause, during which lie
held his head down. in deep thought, he
raised it and added: sLoNGsTREET is very
| good fighter when he gets in position and
| gets everything ready. but he IS SO sIo1o.' :,
The paper is one Of very great ability, in
te1est, and value to all who would Know
the true story Of Gettysburg. 49, V.
The second paper is General EARLT's re.
Div to LoNGsTREET' recent article in the
Philadelphia Times, in which he makes an
exceedingly able argument to show that SC
far from the battle Of Gettysburg having
been lost by the failure OF General LEE
to take LoSGsTREET's advice Gas LONG
STREET endeavors to prove in. his pa
peri, that it was lost by the failure
OF LoSGsTREEr to attack early in the morn
ing on the second DAY, as General LEE de
sired, and his failure to obey General LEES
orders to make the attack OF the third day
,oith his sohole corps instead OF avih Pich
etrs three brigades. Whatever may bt
ones opinion Of the points at issue, he can
not but enjoy the clear, sharp way in which
cold JUBAL'' puts them, and his article
will be widely read.
The third and last paper is Hon. K. III. L
HUNTERS reply to Dir. DAvIs's recent lette
on the Peace Commission. Dir. HUSTEl
brings out much OF the inside history 0
the Coniederacy, makes some sharp hits
introduces recent letters from Judge JON
| A. CAMPBELL and Hon. A. II. STEPHENS
and produces paper which will Great
wide interest and elicit, OF course. war;
reioinder from the late President OF tn
Confederacy.
In Editorial Paragraphs " the. edito
Grew. j. WILLIAM jones' announces tina
