An Acconnt of His Public Careor, and His Fraudulent Rallrond Clatm, Neio York Sun (Titden, Dem.)., The friends of Mr. Pendlcton have secured his election as United States Scnator from Oblo to succeed Stanley Matthews on tho 4th of Marclt, 18570, No public man has heen pushed forward more zenlously futo prominence than he, and without any special ability or other claim to distinction. Twenty-iwo years ago he was o member of the Legislature, and slnce that time ho has been four times elected to Congress. In neithier of these posts did ho make anv distinctive ark, sud his name only figures in adull chronology like bundreds of others who have passcd off the stage and left no record worthy of special notlee. Mr. Pendleton was n candldate for Vice- President on tho tlcket with Gen. McClellan in 1864, and he has been the stunding candldate for President over since of alittle circlo of in. censo-burners in Cincinnat!, who comfort them- selves with the bellef that thoy turn tho crank which regulates the movements of the universe, Tleis o man of fair talents, n pleasant speaker, an ogreeable companion, and oro-emincntly o gentleman of deportment, But ho {8 not a thinker in a large scusc, and s eutirely destls tuto of any clement of real statesmanship, Untit the Belknap acandal Mr. Pendicton had & respectable standing beforo tho country, and o consWderable influcuce {o bls party at home, That dark cpisode was the turning point of his carcer. 11is numae beeame smirched so serlously in connection with it that ho has neither rocov- ered his former position at home nor regalned abroad the reputation he once enjoved. The preseot cffort is to vindicate his charucter and reinstate bim fn publfc favoer, ‘The Kentucky Centrul Railroad fs a lino of about 100 miles in lenath, connecting Covive- ton ond Lexington, witha branch to Parfs. R, 1. Bowler, of Cincinuati, was the priucipal own- er of this road, hLis intorest being about three-fifths of the whole |\ru['wrly. He wus the brother-in-law of Mr. Pendicton, who subse- quently became the admimistrutor of his estute, there belugr & widow and three children, two of whom wero tninors, In 1860 Mr. Pendleton was made Preakdent of this Kentucky Central Road at a salary of 86,000 a year, principally, ns ho testifled, to protect the interests of his slster's family. Duriog the Rebelilon this rosa was employed to transport troops, supplics, aud munitlous of war, and a clulm was made avainst the War Department for exta allowances beyond tile fixed rates, covering n perlod of more than two years, between Mayy 1662, aud Auvust, 1861, A former emplove of the road, A, . Ransom by nume, tempted by u contlngent fee of 25 por cent, went to Washington {u 184 to prosccute this claim, wheo all the facts were frosh, aund the witnesses within easy reach, Gen. Holt, Gen. Melga, and Mr, Stanton refected it twice, and the caso was abandoned, But, altér seven ycars of repose, the claim was reopened, agalnst the settled usage of the pul vice, Mr. Pendloton, President of the road and adwlnistrator tof bis brother-in-law'a cstate, NOW nrpenml a8 the prosecutor; and by some inysterious fuflucuce he was enabled to uverthrow the usage of the Government aud to resurrect the dead claim. Ho testiied beforo the Conmittee that by u verbal agrectuent he was to reccive B0 per centof any sma recovered, or twice the feo prumised to Ransow, the orig- inal sgent. With Grant's corrupt éur:ury, Telknap, and with the surroundiugs, Mr. fen- dloton was powerful cnougi to reinove the ob- stacles that had previonsly - blocked the pussage of the claun, aud when 1he ap- provel was fivally niade by the Becretary of War, it was rushed through the de- partments in ono day, with a mark of bgpeelul™ on the papera to hasten the speed. The amount allowed was $148,551.62, and fn the payment it was divided into three purts to the order of the Hou. Ueorge H, Pendlaton, as fol- lows: Une dratt for 830,000, ouu _for 350,000, and oue for $05,553.62, ali dated Juns 13, 1471, Tho {ndorsement of Mr. Pendleton un the tirst draft of £30,000 was *fu violet Ink,” and on the othcrflm‘n “in biack fnk "—a little fact of some significance, Tt wus quite remarkable that Mr, Pendieton, in his testimony, could not tell exactly the amonnt of the award, or of the fee be bud ye- colved, though he had Lad abundunt time to examine all the papers, and Lo prepare himsel! with the clementary facts, 1f they bud pasied out of his mind. All attemyts tojzet trom Lim explicit onswers to theso natural questions ut- terly fulled. But other witnessus supplicd the omissfon. It caine out that the draft for 805« 552.84 was the amount turncd over to the Treas- urcr of the road, and that the two for 350,000 weut Into Mr. Pendleton’s own pocket, These- fore, {ustead of tuking 5 per cent from the award, be appropriated 85,723.00 more thau hall of it, which differcuce s not explafved by him or agy other witiness, and cscaped the notice of the Comnlittee. Moro thau this, Mr. Peadlcton sct up a claim on vehalf of Mr. Ransom, the first agent, and $7,647.75 was sllowed out of the drall pald to tho Teusurerof the road, as compcusation for - Ransom’s former sorvices, so that the road really recelved but $60,000.07 of the sum that had been patd over tu Mr. gPendletou by the Treasury. ‘These facts are indisputable, and while they show Ar. Pendleton in. the light of an enterprising claim sgent, who kuew how to enrich himself, thoy do not prescul him in the aspect of an adininistrator, morally fitted to de- fend the futerests of minor children, His sister, Mrs. Bowler, and her eldest son, wers quick to ald Mr. Pen this groes extortion; but nelthor of them ap- peared s & witness, and the minore had no volce In the mattor. The gravest charge made agaiust Mr. Pendle- ton in this busincss wus that he had pald Mrs, Buwler, ton the alster-in-law aud the pressat cton whet he was charged with® wife of Belknap, £30,000 for her (nfluence In getting the clalm reopened and passed, He had been lier counscl and friend fo Cincinnati after tho death of her firet husband. This oarticular dratt, instead of golng to the Commercial Bank, of which Mr. Peadleton’s brother was President, and where e kept his acenunt, and where that for £50,000 went, was eent to the First Natlonal Bank of Clacinnatl, and, as we have scen, was dietingnished from the others by a violet ink on the indorsement. The cxplanations in regard La it were not con- vincing or satistactory, though they may have been entirely true. But Mr. Pendicton and hia friends made one irreparable blunder when they falled to summon Mrs. Belknap, and to get the whole truth from her lips under oath and hy cross-cxamination. 8he alone could af- firm or deny the charge, so far as it affected her actious. She was in Washington and within ready call of the Committeo. It was not dellca- cy toward the lady that moved this stranzo omission, for Mra, Marsh was required to testify s to o conversation on the subjoct with Mrs, Belknap. Comment was necessarily provoked by the fact which appenred in tho evidence, that, fin- mediately after the distribution of this money, Mr., Pendleton was a passenger on the same ship that carrfed the lady, then a charming widow, and her fortunes acrossthe Atlantte. This may have been & mere coincidence, but 1t was uni- fortunate under the circumstances. If the Demuocrats of Ohfo can afford to elect Mr. Pen- dleton to the Scnate, and were willing to carry the load of this bueiness, the rest of the coun- try can certsinly stand It. But they cannot, by :‘l:lnt or any uther act, restore him to public con once. SILVER AND GOLD. Bank.-Oficers Trylng to Yead Off Bllver— Retaliation that May Tumble Gold Aronnd Their Ears=Startiiug Prediction by Gen. Grant. Xew York Sunday Mercury, Jan, 13, Wall street, pretondiog forever to be deeply in love with gold, had a frolic, when they en- deavored to kill Mr. Bland outright and throw all thelr sliver dollars to the winds, Nothing clag of an attractive festurs prescnting ltsclf, except, a aliglit rise {n Westerna and a decline fn coal-stocks, tho magnates of tho strect—that (s to say, Nank Presidents—assembled ut the Clearing-House and mado war upon siiver. Mr. Charles M. Fry, of the Bank of New York, aud Mr. Jenkios, of the Bank of America, wanted to go to work at onco and **shoot on the spot ™ any man having a sllver dollar in his pocket; but, on the advice of Mr. Vermilye, of the Mcrchants’ Dank, always a level-headed man, and Mr. Bherman, of the Mechanices’ Bank, dalmer counsels prevalled. Instead of con- Jemning to death at once any man who pro- ounced the words * aliver * and ** legal-tender " Ithin #ive minutes of onc another, it was tlought best to appolnt 8 committee that should feport to nnother mecting, The mountain finally produced tho mouse, which was duly felezraphed all over the country. Mr. James B, Coleate, of Colgate & Co., who wrote the recent sharp letter to Sceretary Shcr- man, had o long {ntervicw with the Mercury ro- kmrwr. 1lesald: “If these men continue to alk in this way, it will be advisable to show thio Byndicate, and the cotire Juden-Gasse, that wo can demonictize zold, too, It will not hurt this country half ns much asthe demonetization of eliver has done, There 1s more silver consuned throughout the world to-day than there is pro- duced. Whenever wo part_with our gold, we would take all the silver Eurovs has to spare, which Is, indeed, & very small quantity. 'I'he conscquence would be that in o few years wo would be in complete commorcial sympnthy with thom, so far aa silver is concerned, especial- 1y In regard to Africa, Mexico, and South Amer- fea. Thoso are the nations that are ready to take our manufectures, and with whom "our trade mnust increase, It we desive to prosper at all. Al that Europe, composed of gold coun- tries, takes from us is our raw material, These othicr countries take our manufactures too, Hence, when we mno longer want gold, it must go to Europe. But the * demands of Europe for subsidiary coln for shipment to India will elp us greatiy. They will have to ook to this country for their supply. 1t wo should demouctize gold, they could not pay usin it, and, consequently, as then there would be no place in the world where old would be ro- quired, 1t must decline fn value. Let the bond- Lolders and the bankers put this in their pipes aud smoka it. Silver i3 a unlversal coln, nceded ut oll timce all the world over, and, as gold Is not, we have more to fear from an over-produc- tion of gold than silver. Bilver is only produced 1o tho cxtent of $70,000,000 per aunum. This country uscs ton and Europe twenty millions, and the remalning forty millluns are used in thio arts. Thirty years ago Europe was fondued with sllver, - 1t 'has siuco disappeared from Ttaly, Austris, Russla, and tho Beandinavian Kingdoms., Only sixty millions aro lelt in Germany, and the large amouut France oncg Emmsmx has dissppearcd. It was reported cforo a_ British Commission that of the clght bundred willlons of silver oxported from 1452 to 1802, more than one-balf came from the melting-up of old Ave-franc pleces, Theo Becre- tary of the Mint says that for twenty-two months commencing January, 1870, therg was exported to Asia from this country nlone $148,000,000 of silver. Soitis clearly scen that we have more to fear from a glut of pold than of silver. It night bo n very proper question to ask of those who are calling thoe silver-mien repudiationists whether gold would not decline nioro than 8 per ceut if every tlnt tn the United States and Eu- rope wero closed against {t, as they age now against silver. Gold, §f placed in auch a pre- dicament, would decline at lcast from 25 to 30 er cent. The truth {s, that every silver natlon n the world can et along witliout gold, but not o siugla gold nation can get along ~without sliyer. They require at least $3 per head in lary colo for every one of their people,' Colgate then stated that from 1852 until 1875 there had been grndu:cd $2,913,000,000 In gold, while during the rame period thers had only been produced $1,187,500,000 fu sllver,— thus showing that there was ground for greater h‘:lur ofaglut of gold thau au abundavcs of silyer, In conclusion, Mr. Colgate eafl: *‘I have a letter hers from the most promiuent bulllon- broker in Parls, recelved only this very worn- ing. It1s doted Dec, 23, and fs n private lotter, 1 canuat allow you to copy it, but I will read it to you, und perinit you to muke some extgacts from ft." After expressing the fervent lope that Presi- dent Hayes will not vuto the Bland Silver bill, the genticman writea: 1t {s very evident that, after the exhaustion of the UGerman stock of sllver (ttteen million pounds sterling), the demand for that metal for india and China will fall upon the five-franc pleces sad the American sflver dollar, and this with no small advantage to the two countries.” 116 coucludes his letter by stuting that, when ex-Presldent Grant was In Paris, be told him that the country banks would have to suspend, all of them without exceptlon, within one year after date, If wo should attempt to resume in gold alone. £ ———— “Plon-Plon" and Victor Hugo, Inthe latest chapter of Lis “Ilistoryof a Crimo,” Victor Hugo tells an auceduto of Prince Navolcon that shows the curious re- Iations heid by the Prince with the revolutions Napoleon eafd to him: *“*You rup, you yoursell personally, great danger, - Of all'the incn fn the Asscinbly you wro the one whom the President hates the'most.

PROTESTING AGAINST DISCRIMI- NATION, The managera of tho roads leading East from this city held a meeting at the ofice of the Pitts- hurg & Fort Wayne Nallrosd yesterday morning, to take some sction In regard to the recent decision by Mr. N. Gulliford, the Western Pool Commis- eloner, which atlows a difference of two and a balf centa in the rates ftom Mliwaakeo to New York to the Jake and rait routes, Tlere werc present at the meeting Messrn, J. N. McCallough, Viee- President of the Pittshurg, Fort Wayno & Chicago; John Newell, General Manager of the Lake Shore & Michigan Southern; I, B. Ledyard. General Mapager of the Michigan Central; and Mr. N. Gullford, Western Pool Commiasioner. The question at fssue was discussed at some length, and the raliroad managers were of the unanimous oplulon that the declsion was unjust, and that the rates vis the Jake and il routes shoold be thé mame via the oll-rall sontes, Mr. Guilford stated that his mction was taken after a meeting with the repro- acntatives of the Chicago & Northwestern, Chica- ®o, Milwoukee & 8. Paol, Detroit & Milwaukee, snd Flint & Pere Marquette, which comprise the rosds leading East from Milwaukee, and they were of the opinion that euch difference wan necensary to be made. His decislon at the time was nut definite, but was merely made unti] ho could com- pare the atatements of "the varinos roads and find out whetber this difference in rates was giving Mil- watkec &n undue advantage. ould find that Milwaokee tyas getting more than {ts share of the hueinesn to which it was entitled, he would fix the ratea st such figures as would give ail thelr proper propartion. At tais point an adjournment was takon ontll 4 o'cluck v, m., in order to en- able the railrond managers to attend the annusl meeting 0! e Stock-Yards Company. The managers tembled at the appointed time at the Grand Pacific Hotel, anc the vexud questivn was again disc d. 1t was argned by the mana- Rers of the Chicago roads that Cnicago could not riand the discrimination {n rates made i1n favor of Milwaokee, and Lhey innlstcd that the Commis- sioner should alter his previous declsion snd make the rates out of Milwaukee tha aame sa from Chi- cago byall the routes. e Chblcago & North. weatern, it was claimed, was in favor of the poel- tiop laken by the Chicago roads, bat the Chicago, Milwnnkee & 8t. Paol was siding with the Detroft & Mitwaukeeand Flint & Pere Marquotte Railroad, becanse the difference in rates was all In i favor es it an immensa advant: Even if the d water-routes were made Lli¢ same as thoee by the all-: rontes, this road would have au advaniage, Inssmuch as ali M terminal faclllties were at Silwaukee, sud it would stlll save hauling the frolght eighty-five miles from Milwaukee to Chicago, by giving its bustners to the lake and rall routes from Mil+ waukee. Wilh even rates the Northwestern wonld 1ake )ts bueiness to Chicago, where it had most of 1ls terminal (acilities. Mr. Guflford declined to receds from his ous declsion until Lo had been able to post himself Detter in the matter, and had satisfied himeclf that the water and rail roctes wonld bave no advan- tage. Thereupon the Gencral Mansgers drow up a pro- test against tne- difference of rates made of (he Milwaukes roadsand sent it by telegraph to Mir. Hugh J. Jewett, Becretary and Arbiirator of the New York Fool. And here the troublesome matler rests at prescnt, The question of rates from other pointa than Mil- waukoe was also discusscd. Tho Managera weore of the opinlon that thero wonld be no more cnmns of rates, and Mr, Guillord stated that he woul, take the most energeuc mcasures against the ronds found violating the rates hereafter. As regards the contracts made during the late unpleasantnces, it was statcd that they ore not as extensive 33 was firet supposcd, The contracts for grain woiid all bo carrled gut by the 1st of next month.
