[from our Regular Corr respondent
Washington, d. c. Nov. IL, 81
For several weeks, there has
been much talk relative to crook
edness in the internal manages
ment of the Treasury Department.,
under tue late Secretary, now
Sherman. There was an appear
"nce OF All investigation ordered
by the late Secretary Window,
and one or two small officials
were east ont. Senator Sherman
with great parade of caDdur, hlm
self moved in the Senate that the
result Of the Investigation be laid
before that body, but franticalIy
opposed any revelation OF the Ell
dence that was Brought out in
the Investigation. 1t is pretty
we'll known, by this time, what
the results Of these Investigations
are, When conducted within the
Republican party, by the Repub.
lisan PARTY, with Il view to the
vindication Of a pillar of the Re.
publican party. The verdict by
IA jury OF alcomplices is necessa-
rily all acqnittal with honor, ,nu.
Sic, and bouquets; but details of
evidence IT not nice things to be
spread on the Congressional Re-
cord. When those who have not.
profited by the crime, and have
no friendship for the criminals.
gain unobstructed access to rec
ords. and make day light shine
through them, results of invpsti
sations will cease to be sickening
shams. There are 10 reasons
why Chester A. Arthur should
feel any great solitude for the
comfort of the man who, through
the place t%radulently obtained by
himself through a fraudulent
President, was enabled publicly
to disgrace him. The President
has appointed to the Secretary
ship ofthe Treasury a gentleman
who, from his judicial habit and
political utilization will not he SO

the gentle Window. Some pa
triots are sangulne that, unless
Eliza l'inkston or an Agnes
shall again prove more
mighty, in bis behalf. than human
or human justice, Mr..
Sherman will he shown up. 1t is
that improvements on his

The return Of President Arthur
has given rise to a fresh batch Of.
runners. These, in brief,
are that Secretary Lincoln will
not remain III the Cabinet, having
no particular desire for the place, |
