ROACH,s ASSIGNMENT.

Since the failure of JAY COOKE there has
been no event in business circles which has
created so much sensation as the assignment
of JOHN Roach, the Chester ship builder
Yet beyond the immediate circle of creditors
and partners the failure of Roach will have
no special effect on business nor will it be
of important interest TO the public beyond
the fact that it is the collapse of great
monopoly. When COOKE failed he shook
the whole financial fabric. But Mr.. ROACH
was not much of SAMPSON and did not
bring the financial temple down with him.
1t was only one of the many events mark
ing the final clearing away of the system of
iobbery and corruption which had grown
up under successive Republican adj
miniStratOns In cleaning out the
>Augean stables it is not to be
wondered at that occasionally the
new administration throws out pile of
corrupt jobbery like that which was found
in the hull of the Dolphin. The opinion
of the attorney general that the government
had the right TO recover from Mr.. Roach
the large sums of money which had been
paid out on his contracts with the CHAND-
LER navy department probably had more
to do with his assignment than anything
else. 1t is the ruling passion strong i'm
death. lie was bound to beat the govern
ment if he had TO fail in business to do it.
While people will talk about the ROACH
assignment and will discuss the different
theories that will be advanced in eXplana-
ton Of the cause of it, there will be very
few to express sympathy or to wish him
q better fate. The general feel
ing throughout the country is that
men who set out to engage in systematic
swindling of the government ought to go
under. The sooner the better. There will
be a general feeling of relief that the gov
eminent has reached a point where such
Swindles under the form of law. as have
been practiced in the navy department, are
at an end. There is a valuable lesson in
the ROACH failure and the country will lay
it to heart. If Mr. Roach expects to
arouse public sympathy in his behalf and
then utilize ii as capital to work congress
with according to his old-time methods and
secure aid from the government. he has
missed it. The people retired Mr.. Rome
SON and Nj. CHANDLER and they are per
fectly willing that Mr.. Roach shall now lie
in the bed of his own making.

SATAN REBUKING SIN.

whether in the department of Justices

GEN. Grants Condition.

Mt. MCGREGoR, n. Y, July l9.-Gen.
Grant passed a very quiet night. His pulse
this morning was ~ and fuller and stronger
than yesterday. The benefits of the fair
nights rest have been supplemented to-day
by improved conditions made possible by the
cool, clear weather. Saturdays, for four
weeks past, have been days of mental de-
preston and physical weakness, and the
succeeding Mondays have as regularly
marked an apparent improvement of mental
and bodily conditions. On Friday night
last the general suffered from laxity
of the bowels and added weakness
followed. Yesterday morning the patients
lassitude was very apparent and his spirits
depressed. To-day the general sat upon
the piazza much of the time. His pulse
during the day showed no change. He
read the papers and passed restful and
uneventful day and retired at O'Clock.
Before 10 o'clock he had slept nearly an
hour. On awakening he seemed refreshed
and had some written communication with
DIR. Douglas. The patient thought he was
better at this time than last night at the
same hour and felt. though the
disease was not recedng. il was not
at present spreading. In the judgment of
the physicians the condition of the throat
will improve If the stomach and bowels be-
come settled, and he will adopt means TO
that effect. To-day the doctor has been
