it appears hat the above named were in
close proximity to each other. Renaud
carried giant cartridges in his hip pocket
and was walking in advance OF Wright
and Smithem following in the rear. He
(Smithem) carried some giant cartridges
in his right-hand jumper pocket, and in
the left pocket were some fuse cut in
short lengths and capped ready for use.
In his right hand he carried a candle,
while the arm supported a pick and
picker, and the most probable theory is
that the bunch OF fuse, with capped
ends, were sticking out OF the pocket
and came in contact with the candle, ex-
ploding the caps and firing the giant.
The strangest part of the accident is how
to account for the fatal effect on Renaud
without killing Wright. Smithem was
cut into across the breast and stomach.
His bowels were blown out, exposing his
backbone, and N Of his ribs, twelve
inches in length, with the flesh attached,

Governor Cleveland VA serenaded
at Albany Saturday. by the Young Mems
Democratic Club. aud other citizens Of
the city. and in response TO an address,
spoke as follows: Fellow citizens-I
cannot but be grntiied with this kindly
greeting. / find that I am f.si reaching
q point when l shall count the people Of
Albany. not merely as fellow citizens. as
townsmen and neishbos. On this oc-
c~asion, I am OF course. aware hat you
pay no compliment to me as a citizen
and present no personal tribute. but
that you have come to demonstrate your
loyalty and devotion to a cause in which
you are heartily enlisted. The Ameri-
can people are about to exercise. III its
highest sense, their power and right Of
sovereignty; they are to call in review
before them their public servants and
the representatives Of political parties.
and demand of them IN . Of their
stewardship. Parties may be long in
power, and may become so arrogant and
careless; o. the interests OF the people As
To grow needless OF their responsibilities
To their masters. but the time comes, as
c AZ inly as death, when the people
weigh them in the balance. The issues
To be adJuaio~.ed by ina nations great
assizes are made up and are about TO be
submitted. We bslieye the people are
not receiving ut the hands Of the party,
which for nearly four years has directed
the affairs of the nation, the benefit to
which they are entitled, OF pure, just
and economical rules, aud we believe
the ascendancy Of genuine Democratic
principles will ensure u better govern
ment and greater happiness and pros
perity to all the people. To reveal the
sober thought OF the nation, and dislodge
an enemy entrenched, the Democratic
party must be courageous, honorable
and appeal with firm reliance to the in
teiligenee and patriotism OF the American
people.
After the speech Il crowd passed
through, shaking the Governor by the
hand. One thousand conSrLtulntory
kilograms were received from prominent
men, among whom were Thomas Z.

Richard b. Hubbard, Hugh McLaush-

FRAUDS.

All the departments Of Washington
have recently furnished examples Of the
corruption which taipts every branch OF
the public service. These illustrations
have been supplied by officials who held
important trusts, and who Lave stood
high in the Republican household As
patriots Of the Purest sort.
The ~steshnSs Of Burnside are now
traced back through eight yeau, but
nobody has yet reached an accurate
knowledge Of their aggregate mount.
Burnside began operations in the year Of
the Great Fraud, when Grantism was in
Its last months Of official tenure. He
stole fromthe contingent fund, from the
salary fund, and from the proceeds of
the sales Of furniture and waste paper
intrusted to the disbursing agent.
Robert c. Morgan, lately disbursing
officer of the Department Of State, turns
out to be a d~efaulter for n large amount,
in the very sanctuary OF diplomacy.
Daniel Carrigan, formerly chief clerk,
and Edward c. Kirkwood. disbursing
officer Of the Bureau OF Medicine and
Surgery. have been engaged for years in
swindling the Navy Department by
fraudulent vouchers, and this has been
by collision with outsiders.
D. ID. Cole, disbursing ngent of the
Bureau OF Engraving and Printing, was
caught in m~alfeasance and allowed to
resign.
John Hall, lately United States Mar
shall Of the Western District of PennsvI-
vania, grabbed $l53, 757 sc, according
TO the testimony before the Springer
committee.
The Internal Revenue service il
crowded with eItortionists, plunderers,
and vicious officials who abuse power to
mike money, and who make the Gov.
erment do by corrupt tyranny.
The Indians are openly robbed in the
name OF enlightened civilization. Con,
gress creates a national park for the rec,
reation OF the people, and the interior
Department converts the benefit into 4
job.
These and similar rascalities are crop
ping out all over the country. They
furnish striking proofs OF the rottennes,
OF the public service. and of the absolut,
necessity of heroic treatment in order e
save our imperilled institutions
The alarming feature in these devel
opments is that in ninety-nine cases gu
Of "A hundred the thieves are men VIII
have been held III esteem, and who hay,

ing devices which were encouraged b,
