Grams on the bill of retiring Gen. Grant, some
papers have published two dispatches purport-
ing 70 be from Gen. Grrnt, and sent during
the war to Stanton and Halleck, one demanding
Rosecrans' removal and the other ordering his
arrest in certain contingency. When Gen.
Rosecrans' attention WAS called to the dispatch

AS was TO be expected, Mr.. Randall declines to

MI. Cleveland, and Mr.. Carlisle viii undoubtedly
be equally re icent: IL may be assumed, however,
that the conversations related to political manage
ment, especially with regard to those matters
with which the Speaker OF the House and the
leader on the 1lo0r have so much to do. The demo-
Gratis lind themselves at this time in position
which requires the incest judgment. They come
into power for the first time since the war; on the
narroweSt possible margin, and are not at all
agreed among themselves on important party CUES

weight IN determining the democratic policy In

questions. for instance. as the tariff the reorgan-

Where the best that can be done is done, no
apology Is noe5ed or expected; but, in the way OF
Information, little explanation as TO the cOndi-
lions under which ;he present issues Of THE STAR
are prOdu, may not be without interest TO its
readers TO that end 1t viii therefore b. permiSst
bic to say, briefly that the business and editorial
offices renain in their former quarters at the cor
ner OF Pennsylvania avenue and Eleventh street;
the cOmp0Sing-TO0ins, where all the matter Is put
IN type, are in Judd & Dctwei!erS new building, on
Eleventh street, on the same square, but several
doors distant; the plates or forms for the press
are stereotyped ut the Office Of the National
Tribune on street, between Fourteenth and Fiji
tenth, whore the work OF printing is also done.
Under the great disadvantages OF this disconnected
and somewhat diversified sovereignty 1t is tnevita-
bic that considerable delay in the delivery of the
paper to its numerous and widespread constitu-
ency should occur-a delay, 1t Is hardly necessary
TO add, thar is regretted more by its publishers
than 1t can by any OF It's readers but all accesSt

Congress has not only done itself credit, but 1t
has fallen far short of public expectation and de-
SIRE in the ~ has seen proper to pursue in
regard TO the coming dedication ceremonies OF the
National Washington Monument In the appro-
pration made tor celebrating the event It's action
has been narrow and niggardly in the extreme,
and in making the intellectual exercises OF the Oc
caslOn a purely private enterta InInent, TO which
only the members of that body and few chosen
friends could gain access, it has shown itself un-
patriotic ami selfish TO the last degree 1t Is well
understood Of course that the duty and privilege OF
directing the ceremonies ftly fail upon Congress,
because IL was largely by the appropriations made
by that body that the noble shaft has at last been
completed but the money voted did not come
from the private purses OF the gentlemen who thus
consented TO It's expenditure their present action
would seem TO Imply. 1t was the money OF the
people, and the people themselves have as much
right to participate in all the dedlcatOry exercises
as have those who for the time being are acting as
servants OF the public.
There are many people residing In Washington,
as there will he present at that time large num-
Der OF citizens OF other portions OF the country,
who have just IS much right to hear and are Just
as capable OF apDreciating the literary part OF the
entertainment are the members of the two
houses Of Congress and their families and para
sites; and 10 deprive them of that right and pleas
ure by the use the occasion OF room too small
TO accommodate more than chosen few Is as un-
gracious as il is unjust. As THE STAR pointed out
some time ago, it viii be entirely practicable to
utilize the new Pension office building for part of
the celebration of the 21st inst. and 1t Is there
that the orations etc, should be delivered instead
OF in the contracted, lily arranged and comp1ra-
lively inaccessible Hall Of the House OF Representa-
tlyeS Three full weeks of time yet remain In which
TO make the change and carry out the necessary
arrangements for making the occasion one in every
way worthy its character, and in every part OF
which the people who choose to do so can freely
participate. II the joint committee OF arrange
mentS are wise and have the authority to alter that
feature OF the program, they should do so; ii not,
the change should be made by direction of the two
Houses for which they acting, but whch,it is to
be hopedthey do not fairly represent in the matter
as ii stands at present.
