Mr.. HAYES has not yet given his attention
20 the publication OF the New Orleans Custom
House. Several men obnoxious to the spirit Of
civil service hold important positions there. A
certain politician named J. MADISON WELLS Is
surveyor Of the Port. Another politician, one
THOMAS c. ANDERSON. is Deputy Collector. and
practically at the head Of the Custom House for
he named the Collector. and controls all Of the
appointments. Both WELLS and ANDERSON are
without the necessary qualifications Of ability
and character. They are both under Indictment
for forgery. and are soon TO he tried in the

such charge brought against him on lnsufi-
cent evidence. The two defendants who pleaded
guilty are left by the verdict in a rather awkward
attitude; let them console themselves with the
reflection that it might have been worse. The
most amusing incident OF the trial grew out Of
the serving of subpoena on Adjutant- General
THOMAS Tor certain papers. He returned an
swer that he had already informed counsel he
didn' have the papers. and that no court-the
United states Supreme Court alone excepted
had the right to compel him to attend as n wit
ness. An attachment brought the old warrior
into court. and the Threatened collision between

The grain crop now beginning to move Is
the largest yet. The figures elsewhere given are
prophetic Of better times ahead. They show a
notable increase in grain expectation from last
year. and they also show that the receipts Of

and Recorder HAcKLrT was so overcome that
he could hardly speak in sentencing him. The
man who happened to be sentenced Just before
this scene in court WIS described by the
reporters rs negro thief" and there
was no public wailing over him. Yet
he was not responsible for being a negro; his
theft was trining in comparison with GILMAN I;
he fell from honesty through far greater temp
