Mr. Cleveland found 1t necessary to withdraw
the name of his appointee to the Lyons,
France, consulate, because that appoiDtee
had been charged with extortion
and disreputable usages in the
transaction of the business of his Office. 1t is
said that one Of his shortcomings growing out
his insane desire to become rich in hurry. was
a habit that he had of charging 500 for the
small work of acknowledging power of attor-
ney. For months past reports of misconduct on
the part of Warren Green have been coming
into Washington. This young man is son of
Dr. Norvin Green, of the Western Union Tele-
graph Company and he was some time ago
appointed consul at Karagowa. Not long ago this
young mans father was here, and endeav-
ored to secure favorable action on his sons nom
ination by the Senate, promising that he would
see that the young man resigned as soon as his
confirmation was made known to him. The
Doctor was unsuccessful, and now it is asserted
on good authority that the President has been

"Docking" Clerks.

Washington Special.
There is some complaint among the employees
of the General Land Office, or as it is better
known, the General Sparks Office" of the sys-
tenn of docking for absence. A clerk, it is said,
who is fifteen minutes late is compelled to lose
the whole day. although he or she may perform
good days work. For being late fifteen min
utes one day of the thirty days leave granted to
clerks is forfeited. If the leave has been taken
the clerk is locked the days pay. There is one
peculiar feature of this system of docking at
present which is causing good deal of comment.
A clerk in the department who had taken all the
time allotted for vacation and sick leaves. was
kept at home for two weeks by illness. When
he went to draw his salary the full pay for
the month was written In ink but above it in
pencil was substituted the amount due less the
time lost. Or in other words, while he signed
for full months pay. he only received half of
it. This clerk stated to a reporter that after he
had signed the payroll the pencil marks were
erased and the balance sheet failed to show what
disposition had been made of the difference
Said the clerk. II don't mind being locked, but
I would like to know what becomes of that
money!

The Boys at Wabash Express Their Opinion.
The following resolutions were unanimously
adopted by James II. Emmitt Post, G. A. r., Of
Wabash, and their publication requested in the
Journal:
Resolved BY James II. Emmitt Post, No. 6, Grand
Army of Republic, that have read the account of
the demonstrations of the South in hon f jefferson
Davis, and the enthusiastic approval o treasona-
bic sentiments he uttered with sorro, dignation
and alarm. The sentiments expressed b. avis, reit-
Grated by the Southern press and indorsed by the
Southern people, are not only unwise and imprudent
but they are infinitely more--they are reasonable,
and violently insulting to every soldier who fought
for the preservation of the Union, living or dead.
Resolved, That we heartily indorse the sentiments
of our immortal chieftan and our comrade General
Grant expressed in his dying invocation for peace
and fraernal good feeling be reestablshed between
the North and South. We hail with Joy the senti-
ments in General Gordon's speech Except his
eulogy Of Davis) and when the South is
ready to admit that the principles for which they
took up arms are forever wrong and that in the war
for the preservation of the Union the North are for
ever right. When the old rebel flag which and is
the emblem of treason, shall be hidden away forever
out of sight and the South shall faunt it side
by side with the grand old and stripes then and
not until then, will sectionalsm cease and peace and
that fraternal feeling which invoked by the
tyred Lincoln and immortal Grant become q reality
and the generations which follow will know no North
upon the immortal principle of our fathers that all
men are equal before the law which is the glory Of
the past and our star of hope.

LITERARY MOTIFS.

TUE March number of the american
Antiquarian contains an interesting
table of contents. The first article
describes the attempts which have
been made to decipher the HERO
glyphics Of the ancient American
races, especially those contained in
certain Maya Goddess; next is an arti-
Gle on the Clan or Gems sytems of the
lroquois, by W. NJ. Beauchamp. This
is followed by discussion OF the
question whether the Davenport tab
lets are frauds. The correspondence
develops the fact thatfraudulent relics
are bought and sold, and the best
psychologists are sometimes deceived.
The article on Gamma Carvings" by
W. II. Henshaw, refers to the Difficult
ty in identifying specific animals from
the carvings. The magazine contains
many new and interesting facts con-
corning the antiquities of the country.
