AN Exploded INvEsrIGATION.

The POTTER conspiracy investigation,
while it has utterly failed to show any con-
spiracy on the part of the Republicans to
secure the votes of Louisiana and Florida
for other than the candidates to whom they
rightfully belonged, has established one fact
by irreiragable proof, and that is that the
record of President HAYES on that point Is
unimpcachable. Pending that issue-and
when the country was deeply excited over
the questions which centred in Louisiana
and Florida HAYES writes to Senator
SHERMAN, with the coolness and decision of
a frmly seated integrity of purpose
We arc not to allow our friends TO defeat one
outrage aud fraud by another. There must be
nothing crooked OIL our part. Let Mr.. TILDEN
have the place by violence, intimidation, and
fraud rather than undertake to prevent 1t by
means that will not bear the severest scrutiny.
Would any man who, even plotting for a
fraudulent possession Of the Presidency
when, if there wis u conspiracy 1t WIS at
its very crisis, have written such words ia
his nearest friend? We are led TO think
this isolated instance Of heroic integrity is
laid bare and fully understood. A conspin'
tor for fraudulent power would not have
written this-indeed, lie could not while h'
was conspiriug to reach the end of usurPa
ton and dishonor,ble possession Of th'
Presidential stake Whatever the President
may have done since that is unpslatable t.
the Republican party, which was then sus
tanning him with its might and main, he pres
ents himself in that trying hour in the light
Of a fair, just. aud upright man, who woul'
sooner fail 10 reaching the Presidential
prize than to secure il by crookcdness
fraud, or any means that would not bear thu
seyerest scrutiny.
This evidence, which is of record, an'
cannot be impeached or disturbed, knock

GENERAL GRANT IN GERMANY.

Judging from the statements Of the Ber-
lin papers the stay of General GRANT at
the capital Of the German Empire must
have been very pleasant to him. On the
LIST of July sham fight was performed in
his honor on the field of Tempelhof. There
was fear at first that the General would not
come, on account of slight indispostion,
but he made his appearance after all in q
conveyance, accompanied by Major lLING,
of the general staff lie saluted the troops
from his carriage, and kept his seat during
the whole maneuvre. One Of the reports
says:
The General appeared in civil dress, and not
in uniform, and, according to American habits,
lighted his cigarette as soon the maneuvres
began, may have been to many witnesses a
remarkable circumstance. The smoking civ
ilian showed, however, in the minntest de-
tails, that he Is a keen military observer, who
