Riddlobergor is proprietor, has tho following
in reference to the silly falsehood that the
two Virginia senators had quarrolodt
The funder press is just now engaged in
telling how Riddlcberger has quarrolcd with
Mahono-how he is sullSing and refusing to
give cent to the campaign because Malone
wouldn't divide tho federal patronage with
him.
Well, it was only two years ago that they
published the no less ludcrous story that
Cameron, Malone, and Riddleberger had
quarreled in Richmond-evon locating the
room in which the battle took place. They
gave the particulars of the fight, too. One
story is not less ridiculous and untrue than
the other, except that part about Riddle
bergers subscription to tho campaign fund.
Riddleberger is just now afflicted with
civil service REFORM" The case is rather
aggravated by short bank account; but he
is preparing, as soon as Mr. Barbour puts up
his $1,000. to raise that gentleman out of his
boots. He is going to elevate him $l00,O00 if
it takes tho whole wheat crop of his three

A delegation from Pittsburg called on the
secretary of the treasury yesterday morning
to urge that tho public building now con-
structing in that city be completed in accord
ance with the provisions for extension which
were embodied in the original plan. They
ask that work be suspended ON the building
until they have an opportunity to urge upon
congress tho advisability Of providing an in
creased appropriation. SO that the building
may be extended.
According to the plan on which the build
ing is now being constructed it would cost
about S750000. An additional $500, 900 would
bo needed to mako the extension regarded
necessary.
The supervising architect says it is proba-
BILE that work will not be carried on on the
building after tho completion of the first

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR.

MENTs.

TO The Editor.
WASHINGTON Oct IL was very glad to
read the editorial in THE REPUBLICAN of this
morning, under tho head of "THE NATIONAL
REPUBLICAN and Ex-Confederates," not be-
cause the article Objected to led mo to believe
what some of the Virginia bourbons arc en-
deavoring to make out of it, but because
knew that it did not eminate from the edi-
tors, but was in direct conflict with their feel
ings and opinions. Knowing this as L did,
knew there were other eN-confederates, lib
eral in their views, who honestly accepted
the situation" after the downfall of the con-
federacy, who might read that article and
judge THE REPUBLICAN by it. 1t was my
fortune to meet tho political editor of The
REPUBLICAN several years ago under
circumstances which threw us fro-
quently together. We both thought
whom we first met that there was
"wide gulf" an irropressiblo conflict"
between us, and wishing If possible to be
friends, both were careful in our utterances
Further acquaintance and frequent meetings
brought about an honest exchange of opin-
ions, and we soon found that in "all essen
tials," rs churchmen have 1t, wo were on tho
samo platform. l was not slow to assure the
editor that on the platform he placed himself
he could confidently rely upon the support Of
thousands of ox-confederates in all of the
southern states, under his management of the
political columns of TIE REPUBLICAN Tex
cept the inadvertent article on Gen. A. $,
Johns on), tho paper has followed the line
of thought of u largo number, If
not majority, of tho men who
fought in the confederate army for what
they believe the right, and who have no apol-
ogios to mako for their cause. but who proudly
challenge any class of men to show more
loyalty to the nation than they do. A single
sparrow does not make n summer. THE RE-
PUBLICAN has taken and is pursuing the
proper course TO make 1t national paper.
Its fruits are tho evidence of what it worth.
The bourbons OF Virginia show their dcspera-
tion by citing this inadvertent article in or
der to prejudice ex-confcdoratcs. Thoy must
try something else. EX-CoNFEDERATE.
