He Wilt Recommend the Payment of MOORE, MORE ANOUT A SPITEPUL MISCHTIEP-SAREN. Spectat Dispatch to The Tribune, Wasursaton, D. C., Aug. 0.—W. B. Moore, formerly Chiet uf the Spucial Treasury Agents, recently dismissed from the Treasury service, has Bled a senes of churges with the Becretary of the Treasury, which he evidently intends as a means for getting even with semehody. Moore will be remembered as the person who was 80. active in spying out all the Bristow men in the Treasury service, and in reporting all sorts of facts and falschouds in the very remarkable series of letters to Prestdent Grant which bave recently been published. It was through Muure’s Instramentailty, alao, when Chicf of the Spcciat Agenta, that Maddox, of Louisfana, and the Dudley Ficld Investigation meiory, was sent to New Orleaus, It is alsv part of the cur- rent gossip about Moore that he is ‘Tun ONLY MAN In the Treasury service whose retention in office Gen. Grant both personally and in writing sought, Moore, ju bis letter of charges, makes in substance these pointe: Firat, that he has discovered a defatcation In the Norfolk Custom. House, whied he is engaged in investigating, and that he ought not to be diacharzed pend- tug this juvestigation. Second, that A. K. Tingle, present Chict of Special Agents, and others, conspired to get. Moore removed by attempting to blacken bls character in order that he (Tingle) night recelve Moore's piace, Third, that Gens 4. V. Boynton, the corre: spondent of the Clacinnat!

Moreover, Moore commits o grosa breach of contldeies in making the matter public. As to the charge agaifet Special-Agent Tingle, the truth fa that Tingle never spoke a wo. to Sectetary Sherman before the latter sent for bin to give him his present place, and the Secretary's attention was directed to his ca- pacity for the pluce by a very claborute amd EXCELLENT REVORT ho made covering certain matters he had under Snvestlgution, It is certain tbat ‘Tagle was selected for his known: eificlency In that branch of the service. He hasbeen universally com- mended by atl Secretaries for a eecat nuinber of qoute. Tingle fs now in Boston, and will mure ully answer Mooro’s charges upon his return, TUE THIRD CHARGE, which is the fast scnsation, is against Gen. 1H, ¥V. Boynton. That charge Mr. Moore makes in these words: * Hearing that the President hud bared his section upou representations mace by one H. ¥. Boynton anf others, I inumediately informed the Presibeut that the docu- nents which Mr, Boynton bad made the basis of the represcntstions against mu were confidential correspondence between my- self 98 an otlicer of the Goverament and Presl- dent Grant; that these letters were referred bv the President to the Seerctary of the Trensury, and bevame part of the official flea of the De- partment; that I bad reasgn to believe ‘THEY WERE STOLEN from the files through the connivance of A, 8, Sturtevant and others in the ofllia of the Zecre- tary, and putinthe hands of sald Boyntun to 6 my removal a3 Supervistne’ Special Agent, and reinstate A.

Tingle, Sturtevant's brother-lnlaw, in omy stead; that - Boyu- ton "attempted to blackmail ime “by secking to have ine pay a large sum of moucy for the suppresslon of said papers; that, farllujy in this, he did uae then for bis own, profit by causing their publication tn the New York Trinune gud other papers, and further uscd them in the interest of said Sturtevant and others to secure my remoyal; that Voyntun, goide from his mercenary motive, wus actuated by ie spirit of ex-Socretary Bristow and triends, an WISUED TO PUNISH Me because Thad In wy official capacity shown to the President that the power of the United States Tressury Departinent had beew prosti- tuted to polltical purposes.” Gen, Boynton fa absent from+ Washington taking his ‘summer rest at Kye Beach, N, t ‘As avon us be con recelve a copy of Moore's re- markable und lufamous atatentent, he will make a satisfactury and, possibly, STARTLING REPLY. Forthe present it tay be suid that Moore's charges against Boynton, all and sinwulur, are false'and desperately mallelous, It fs certo, tiret, thut the docuinents which presented tod ent Slayes, wero not confidential oficial thongs to President Grant. Second, that Boyne fon never sought communication with Moorw for any purpose.
