Some imaginative scribbers have been re-
vamping the few facts and more allegations
contained in the report Of the late BEVERLY
DOUGLASS regarding this matter and put
ting them forward as new discoveries made
by the Senator, who has not up to this
time, given any information whatsoever to
any one regarding the results Of the pending
inquiry. He is TOO shrewd man, and too
conscientious in the performance Of his

Tine Boston Herald believes that TIE
Chicagos have laid themselves liable TO ex.
pulsion for having played against tho Nationals
and Worcestcrs, clubs which played with clubs
in which McKinnon, an expelled Leage
player, appeared. That is about as near right
as the Boston Herald gets. Tho fact is that the
Nationals are the only club in the association
that has not played against McKinnon since
the expulsion.
THE suggestion that General GRANT shall
be elected to be mayor of Galena revives u
reminiscence of an alleged practical joke on
eN-President TYLER by his old Wing neigh
bors in Virginia. They elected him to be
Road Commissioner. TO their surprise he
accepted the Office and straightway began
to exercise the almost unlimited powers
then vested in the office by the laws of Vir-
gina which enabled him to call into SER
vice on the highways as many able-bodied
slaves as he wanted. lie soon had hundreds
of them at work, aud kept ordering out
slaves until he had supplied the county
with admirable roads. But long before he
stopped, the neghbors realized bitterly that
the joke was on them. The New York
Mdd, alluding to this historical incident,
pays General GRANT the compliment of re-
marking that if he would move to that city
aud accept the mayoraty, New York
might get clean streets and orderly police
men" Therein the lfal gives the GRANT
boom boost unwittingly, for it admits his
qualities of civil administration. But tho
Nail is always fair in its treatment of him
AS fair rs its fear of his reelection to the
Presidency will permit it to be.
