The Andre Monument.

THE RipGE DovEn PLAINs, March Q, 1881.
My DEAR SIR: on page 772, volume 1, of my
"ficld Book Of the Revolution" I have given an
engraving Of the inscribed bowlder placed on the
kpot where Andre was executed, and in q foot
note, afler describing It, said; "This stone was
placed there and inscribed in lsi7 by patriotic
merchant Of New York A more elegant and
durable monument should be erected upon the
bpot' This was published more than thirty years
ago. Just what then suggested Mr. Field has
ilonc, and should be commended for doing II.
Yours truly, BENSON J. LOSING.
The execution of Andre as Il spy was q
prominent historical incident which
rendered it most proper that the locality
should be permanently identified as it
has been by plain monument ltis not
commemorative nor approbative. 1t is
merely q guidc.post TO the searchcr for
historical scenes Why its erection
should have prompted so much scurriity
against Mr., Cyrus w. Field, who oblig-
ingly placed it there, we never could un-
derstand. II was recently defaced by one
Hendrix, and inllammatory appeals creep
into the papers occasionally for its de.
struCtion,
The prctense of any feeling Of bitter.
ness toward Andre at this late day is very
thin. American schoolboys have been
always taught that hewas an unfortunate
gentleman, whose execution, though
necessary under the harsh usages of war
did not prevent him from having the ex'
pressed sympathy and respect of even
Washington himself.
In this connection the New York Maj
rpd LrprcSS says:
1t may here properly be added that the erection
Of the monument ut Tappan Is not the only in.

numerous and interesting in that county than in
almost any other equal space in America. He was

should be muzzled by his real friends.
The Nation is dsgracod by the
conduct of such vultures. There
will be no political party in this
country based on the infallibility
of anybody living or dead and mercenary
fools need not hope to make any more
money or secure any more consideration
of any kind by reason of the crime Of
Guitoau. All opposition to General Gar
field ceased on the I'd of last July. If
any paltry people think they are to be
allowed to vent their malice with inn
punity because to contradict them would
be abusing the dead they may abandon
that idea. The grave of the late Presi-
dent is safe from all desccration but
theirs. They cannot longer safely shoot
at passers.by from the ambush OF tomb
! stone.

Thnsc NIissinp Letters.

We are not unmindiul of the absorbing
interest which attaches to the Chilli
Peruvian investigation, the testimony of
Mr.. St. Clair, an employee at the State
Department, being of especial import
tnCe; but We prefer that the readers of
Tn REruBMCAN shall read il and draw
their own differences. The testimony
that is given will keep, and can be more
intelligentIy and fairly discussed when
all parties have been heard. IF the
various private schemes for cap
turing the guano and nitrate beds
of Peru are all unlolded with
out showing any improper connec-
ton between any Of them and high of
ficers of the United States Government,
so much the better for the honor Of our
Nation. If, on the other hand, ii shall be
made apparent that our Government was
being placed in the attitude of completely
with the despoiling of Peru by private
adyenturers, all under the guise of saving
that unfortunate country from the hard
conditions imposed by Chill, then those
who engineered or contributed TO such a
transaction will be the sufferers.
If any promoters Of gigantic private
schemes for the plumber of Peru wrote
letters TO Mr., Blaine, or to Mr., Hurlbut
requesting cooperation, that would argue
nothing against those gentlemen, pro-
yided they met the suggestions as they
deserved, and with no other delay than
such as was based ON good reasons. The
suppression of letters Of this kind s'very
damaging 10 those who ought to be able
to produce them, If Mr., st, Clair is cor
rect in supposing that the missing letters
are at Mr. Trcscots house that gentle
mans representatives, here will doubtless
make haste 10 produce them. The fact
Of their being there would argue nothing
more than carelessness, if they are sought
and found now.
