SEWARD'S HEALTH IMPROVING. &e. &e. &e, Wasumincroy, Oct. 6, 1866. ‘The Prosident and the Constitutional Amend- ment. ‘The indications gathering in the political horizon here point to radical triumphs throughout the North, in which event the President will say to the Southern States and the world—‘‘I have submitted my plan to the people, and so far as the peopie have had an opportunity to act ‘upon it their verdict has been in favor of the proposed constitutional amendment. Under the circumstances, ‘the best advice Ican give is that you adopt the amend- mont, in order that you may be restored to the Union, ‘80 that ail the people may consult upon the future of our great country.” Mr. Seward’s Health Improving. Much golicitude is expressed concerning the condition ef Secretary Seward, and even telegrams of inquiry have Deen received on the subject. It will be gratifying to his friends to learn that his health is improving. The Commissioner of Indian Affairs. ‘The statement made in these despatches yesterday in reference to the change in the office of Commissioner of Indian Affairs should be slightly modified. Mr. Cooley can hardly be regarded as being “removed” from his office, as stated, inasmuch as he resigned his position, in aletter to the President, dated the Ist inst., but the publication of which was, at the request of the Secretary of the Interior, withheld until Mr, Cooley’s successor should be selected. That being now done, his letter of resignation may be published. It is as follows:— Wasixctox, D. C., Oct. 1, 1886, To THe Prestpext:—At a time when the men we gaved our Lge cd and those who attempted to destroy are arrayed, as now, against each other in flerce pay ore the Ciena “Shall the friends or enemies of determing the conditions of reconstraction !”’ mot avery citizon should be clearly defined, Sapa the office I hold is not of AY political haracted, yet my continuance in Coe Bd construed as an on mg ag persons who are now 4 pcg siecess, to gain vcon- ‘the war of whom were to be its enemies. lager I have the honor to tender my resiyna- of the office of Commissioner ot Indian Afiairs, to effect on the a intment of a successor.

COOLEY. Colonel Lonis V. Bogue, ex-member of Congress trom ‘Missouri, who was yesterday appointed Commissioner of Indian Affairs, is in Washington, but will not enter upon the daties of the office until the first of November. ‘The Late Frnuds on the Government at New Le ‘Tho heavy swindles on the government perpetrated by Jaoob Loewenthal, a claim agent of this city, were com- maunicated to the government authorities by a gentleman 4m the same profession, now practising here. Mr. Loew- enthal’s frauds and forgeries wero detected and traced up to an abundance of legal proof, any portion of which 4s sufficient to convict him of forgery, fraud and euborna- ‘tion of witnesses, by a very respectable claim agent of thiscity. It appears that about the beginning of Sep- tember ample evidence of the fraudulent practices of Mr. Locewenthal was submitted to the Secretary of War, and by him referred to the Paywaster General, who on the 24 of Cctober returned the paper to the Adjntant General, from whose office it was immediately transmitted to Major General Philip H. Sheridan @ New Orleans, who is now engaged in fer- retag out this stupendous piece of raseality, which has plundered the United States government of about one million of dollars, Last spring Mr. Loewenthal sent two men to New Orleans—Mr. J. T. Lovejoy, formerly aclaim agent in Washington, and a Mr. G. Biair—who advertised in New Orieans that they were government agents, duly authorized by the government to collect the discharges of colored troops for the purpose of procuring and pay- ng to thom the bounties due them, These confederates wore provided wjth a spurious stamp, which they used $i their transactions with the colored troops, and which they informed the negroes was a lawfai government stamp. When a large nuntber of these discharges were thus collected they were sent on to Washing- ton. Mr. Loewenthal furnished great quantities of blanks to the New Orleans confederates, who made out applications, with the exception of names and amounts, filled up the affidavits and had them stamped by a rotary pablic in this incomplete condition, and seat them on to Washington in huge bundles. Here ‘Mr. Loewonthal filled up the blanks with the names and amounts due the soldiers, whose discharges he had pre- viousty received, made out the necessary vouchers for pay, forged the signatare of the claimant or signed it in @ manner representing that the claimant had made bis mark, having the soldiers’ discharge as proof, and pre- sented the claims for payment. Mr. Loewenthal, after Becoming possessed of a large sum of money in this manner, started for New Orleans, first warning his part- Mers to give notice to all claimants thet their presence ‘was required at the office in New Orleans to receive Sheir monty, Arrived there he was sure to (ind an im- mense concourse of colored claimants, in the m/ ist of ‘whieh, with ali the noise and confusion usual on each @ocasions, ho called cach claimant up in succession, and by an ingenious and rapid method of payment, which mot a little mystified the recipients, who were hurried away too quickly for their surprise to find exprossion in ‘words, he contrived to force from this branch of the ser- ‘vice a very gratifying remuneration. Unless means are discovered to recover from Mr. Loowonthal all or a por- Bion of the money thus frandulently obtained the ernment must be tho loser, inasmuch as the claims which Loewenthal collected were real, while for t #etilement the government has nothing but forged re- @tipis to show. Mort of the men whom Loowenthal Profesed to pay received but a portion of what was @ue them, and therefore have still a claim against the government. A great number Of fietitions claims which had been presented at the departments and had been @lamped as rejected on account of the claimants’ names Mot appearing on the rolls fled in the Adjatant General's office were found in the office of the New Oriedns Patiners, thus plainly indicating \pother mode in whieh ffrand wae attempted on the government, The matter {se now being thoroughly investigated by the govern. ment authorities, and it ie expected that in a short time ali the details will be made public, Tt {v also Smid that fall developments will implicate certain paymasters who: ‘were concerned with Mr. Loewenthal in the payment of cheek books, Financial Matters. ‘The disborsements on account of the several named Gepariments during tho week ending to-day were u# fol- Jows:—War Department, $692,235; Navy Department, $201,406 ; Interior Department, $41,299. ‘The printing division of the Treasnry during the week ending to-day delivered to the United Statos Treasurer $622,500.

Asseciation— Distinguished Guests *“Present--A Good Time at Great Neck. ‘The associate engineers of New York have for several years past been in the habit of devoting au evening out of the three hundred and sixty-five to a social r@union and good time generally over something spicy In the eat- ing line, and multitudinous champagne in the wey of beverage. A number of the members of this organiza- tion desired to enjoy a clam bake at one of the delightful little retreats especially adapted for the purpose along the banks of the Sound. Others, however, who eould bot spare the time necessayy for the undertaking objected to the expense attaching to such an arrangement, This difference of opinion about the mode of enjoyment gave tive to the formation of a soctety called “The Engineers’ Clam Bake Associafion,” designed to carry out tho favorite tdea of a happy time. Yesterday morning the steamer Andrew Fletcher, with the members and guests of the association, lett the pier at the foot of Ninth street, East river, and proceed- ed to Great Nec! pint of land only a short distance above Little Ne 0 juatly celebrated for its clams. There was a goodly assemblage aboard, representing wealth, science, talent and the best engineering skill in the Union. Thore were representatives of the army, navy, bar, Senate, press and the mercantile an, facturing interests, Besides the members of the s Clation, the following are the names of some of the per- sons who graced the oecasion :—President Murphy, of tho Fulton Iron Works; George Quintard, of the Morgan Iron Works ; Judge Brady, Thurlow Weed, George Law, Judge Richard Busteed, Theo, E.

Cornell, George Birk. ee ‘the spot solected for the entertainment is but a fow yards from the lauding at the Neck, and seems especially designed by nature for just such a gathering. In a green field, beautifully overshadowed by tall oak trees, there were several canvas tents spread, under which long lines of tables and seats were placed. A few yards at one side the important business of the bake was tranvacted. A brief descript'on of the way in which this is done might not be unintorestiag, First, there are layers of atones of about three feet in thickness, which are most thorourbly heated, an operation which takes about five bours tu ac- complishment, After this all the rubbish of burnt board, Ac., is cleared away and a fayer of seaweed j# placed on This is a foundation for the hard clams, ied, having beem deposited, then follows more seaweed, then the soft shell ciams and crabs, then another layer of seaweed; after which the fixh, flesh and fowl, in regular succession, with intervening strata of sea weed, Last of al! the potatoes, Trish and sweet, beets, turnips and other vegetables; ou the top of all more seaweed is piled, and then the whole smoking, #eaning mass, now forming a pyramid of considerable dimensions, 1s enveloped m thick woollen blanket, so that the heat may not escape, and ina few minutes short of an hour the baking is accomplished.
