In the issue of Tuesday under the

mated that the Postmaster had used the
envelope of delayed letter to scribble
on. After further investigation the
LlGl1 is convinced this was an error.
The letter was directed originally to
Nv. II. Browder, hotel clerk, San An

left 1t at the Central hotel from where 1t
was returned August 3lst; the envelope
| bore the postolllce dating stamp on the
| dates of receiving June I'd, and August
| 3lst. MIR. Browder Is clerk at the Nav
eriok hotel, and If the letter had been so
directed II would have been placed in
the Maverick hotel box. The carrier
should not have left the letter without
inquiry, and thus caused a serious delay.
The hotel clerk should also have sent
the letter back to the postoillce after n
reasonable length of time, say ten days
when he saw there was no clerk at that
hotel by the name of Browder. This
correction Is made because on number
of occasions parties have wanted Post
master Newoomb pitched lnton for just
such alleged violations of duty, ant
which, no doubt would prove to be jus
as unoaled for and frivolous as the in

Recently we are told that one Of the
reasons which induced General Grant
TO desire a third term was the wish 70
correct the policy Of his former admin

southern half Of the Union. We recol-
lect that for the eight years OF his
power he declined to interfere in the
cruel and unjust sentence imposed by
a military court on General Fitz-John
Porter. and yet when he became alter
wards convinced Of the great wrong
done TO a meritorious brother officer
he promptly countermarched and moved
up TO his support.
The unwritten law Of the republic
declined TO give him another opportu-

GENERAL JOHN Il. COOKE.
With a large fund Of horse-sense, un-

purpose, and great caution, he was ever
a safe general, aad man who could
coolly undertake to wear ont an army

to lose three men to kill one--a cold
blooded one--and altogether a general
whom an opponent, however able or
brilliant, could not afford TO despise.
