ASHINGTON, The Tariff Bill 2% Far as Acted On, Shipbuil’ing Materials on tho Free List, Oustoma Duties Payable One- Third in Greenbacks. THE KU KLUX ACT IN THE SENATE. The Final Adjournment DiMiculty. FRIGHTFUL MASSACRE BY INDIANS. A United States Supply Train Attacked and Robbed in Texas. The Defenders Scalped and Burned Alive. TERROR ALONG THE MEXICAN BORDER, WASHINGTON, May 17, 1872, The Senate Considering the Habeas Core pus Suspension Bill—What Came of Thinking a Matter Over. The bill to extend the time in which the Presl- dent may suspend the writ of habeas corpus until March 4, 1873, was taken up in the Senate to-day, notwithstanding the absence of Senator Bayard, of the minority of the Ku Kiux Committee, and its consideration proceeded with. A telegram from that gentleman announces the probability of his return on Monday, but all efforts to postpone a final vote on the bill until his arrival failed. It should be explained, however, that the caucus programme of business requires action on the bill at this time, and it is, perhaps, Mr. Bayard’s fault that he is absent at the time when every one who knows anything about business in the Senate should have known that.it would come up, The de- bate shows conclusively that both the majority and minority of the committee have arrived at the con- cinsion that a regularly organized association of Ku Klux exists throughout the South, No one at- tempted to deny the assertion that the ex-rebel raider, N. B. Forrest, was a member of the organt- zation, and possibly its leading spirit, except Sena- tor Blair, Senator Norwood objected to allusions of the same character made by Senator Scott against General John B. Gordon, of Georgia, It was finally agreed that a vote shall be taken on Tuesday of next week, and, pending further dis- cussion, the Senate adjourned. The executive seasion of the Senate to-day lasted only fifteen minutes, and was wholly occupied with the confirmation of unimportant nominations, This Was the first opportunity that outraged Senatorial Aignity has had to avenge itself since the exclusive pubilcation by the HERALD of the treaty correspond- ence, but no attempt was made to take advantage ofit. In fact, itis believed that Senator Cameron and others, who in the firet flush of indignation threatened to move for an investigation into the manner in which the HERALD gets its news of the secrets of the government, haye, on sober, second thought, abandoned the idea, G “ Binal Adjournnient. The adjournment question In Congress has settled Itself into amuddle. The Senate resolution to ad- Journ on the 29th inst. is still pending in the Houser notwithstanding which Mr. Dawes succeeded yes- terday in passing a resolution through the latter boay, fixing June 3 as the date, The House resolu- tion was briefly considered in the Senate to-day, and, strange to say, the members thereof did not at first comprehend the shrewd trap into which Mr. Dawes hed invited them to step. It was his in- tention to throw out a bait for the Senate to induce it to assume the responsibility of extending the session, and yet, by holding the original Senate resolution asa matter pending in the House. to be able to force an adjournment on | the 26th. Mr. Sherman, however, flanked the whole scheme by offering a resolution asking the House to return the first one. The question is thus opened for consideration in such @ manner as to make it probable that final action will be reached before many days, Free Lumber for Shipping and Free Licor= fee for Tobacco Men. Speaker Blaine, while the House was in Commit- tee of the Whole to-day on the Tariff bill, Mr. Sco- field In the chair, succeeded in getting in an amend- ment putting shipping materials on the free list. This amendment combined all the prominent features of the bills heretofore introduced by him- self and Messrs. Hale and Lynch. ‘The ideaof incor- | porating this matter in a tariff bill originated with im, and he succeeded in making the reqnisite combinations to carry it. W. R. Roberts proposed an amendment placing Heorice of all kinds on the free list. It was carried after ahard struggle, although a short time pre- viously a similar resolution failed. This is very im- portant to the tobacco interests, as, the duty being eighty-five per cent, large quantities of leaf to- bacco were sent to Canada to be there manufactured, thus injuring the manufacturing interests of the country. Three-fourths of the licorice imported was used in the manufacture of tobacco, Fearfal Indian Outrage at Howard's Well, Texas—A Gallant OfficereDeath of Lieutenant Vincent sacha ae “Whe Secretary of War to-day feceived from Gen- eral C. C. Augur, commanding the Department of Texas, his report, together with that of Lieutenant Colonel Merritt, of the Ninth cavalry, concerning | the destruction, by Indians, Mexicans and negro ‘deserters from the Ninth Gévairy, of a Mexican pupply train, en route to Fort Stockton, at Howard's Well, near old Fort Lancaster, Texas, on the 20th | of April last. The attack was made by a party of 125 to 150 men, and all the people with the train, Beventeen in number, were killed or wounded, ex- ceptone woman. The train and commissary sup- plies belonging to our government were all burned. General Augur says :— ¥ On 20th inst. I arrived with the cavalry of m) command at Howard's Well, a few hours too late fo prevent one of the most horrible massacres that a8 ever been perpetrated on this frontier, A Mexican train loaded with United States commis- Bary and ordnance stores, on its way from San An- | tonlo to Fort Stockton, was attacked by Indians, plunderea and burned, All the people with the rain, seventeen sonls ia all, were killed or wounded, except one woman. My command buried eieven bodies and brought three wounded men and one woman into this post. Before arriving at the burning train the ‘first intimation we had of the horrible disaster was the charred and black- ened corpses of some of the poor victims, but no one was alive to tell the horrors of the -affalt. supposed bad to this time that Captain Sheridan, with the infantry of my command, was in camp at Howard's Well, about a mile from’the scene orthe massacre, and while yet some distance from the int the smoke of the burning wagons, mistaken for his camp fires, confirmed me in this belief, knew, at ieast, that a sergeant and four men were at the well in Me of forage. The command moved ry, toward the well, when the sergeant in charge of the detachment at that point was met and pointed out the course the Indians had taken with the stolen animals belonging to the train. In Jess time than it takes to relate it the trail was found and a rapid faa Was at once made by Seibert reepsactvels oy Canes Catt com. ded a . tenant Vineent. ‘4 ef a Cooney and Lieu: er following the trail some seven Maiies the cavalry came (pat the Indians in forenon the summit of a stecp and almost impassable bluit, Here @ sharp fight occurred, in which, I regret to Liewtenant Vincent fell while bravel Bay, leading and Myempting to conyrol bis wen, He ; trade, NEW YORK HERALD, SATURDAY, MAY 18, ye , about, ten orelous : ? ey was painfully, though hot aeelowaty isbured by his horse fing snd drag.

The men’of his company behayed very well, but being in a great part reeruita, without onpensee in In- dian fighting, which Was the case in company H | to a still greater extent, they squandered their ammunition, a8 sometimes even old troops not well under control will do, with repeating or magazine arms, Leck of ammunition and supplies, as the command .was changing its station with limited | transportation, made @ protracted pursuit of the Indians impracticable. 1 regret very much that Merritt was not in condition to have punished these Indians se- verely, but he was changing stations, with all the impedimenta usual on such occasions, with barely suficient transportation and supplies to last his command on the road. Lieutenant F. R. Vincent, of the «Ninth cavalry, did not receive a necessarily fa%™\wound, but seeing that his new men required tif stimulus of his example, he insisted upon being put on his horse, and placed himself at their head, when, from his exertions and consequent loss of blood, he soon fell exhausted and never recovered, A woman who escaped repopts that six Indians were killed in the fight. Words failed to convey an idea of the sickening atrocities committed by the demons who overpowered the train men. Some of them were taken alive, tied to wagons and burned. An old woman was carried some distance from the place of the atti and then shot and scalped. ler grandchild had its ears cut off, was scalped | and had its brains dashed out, while her daughter, the mother of the child, who witnessed it all, as also tle death of her husband at the train, was car- ried oi by the tlends, More than one poor wretcn crawled from the burning wagons, after the ropes: which bound them had burned off, only to burn to blackened, unrecognizable masses, with their oi rig hands and faces raised in positions of en- reaty. ‘The train had nine men with it. The remainder of the party were women and children, It is feared one woman was taken away by the band, though it is possible that she as well as the other body unac- counted for was burned to ashes with the wagons. It is reported that the band consisted of from one \undred and twenty-five to one hundred and fifty men, and was composed of Indians, Mexicans and deserters from the army. A number of arms and supplies of ammunition were taken from the train by the band before burning it. How many arms I cannot say. It was the supply which was lately sent from the Arsenal at San Antonio to Fort Stoc! ton. General Augur in this report expresses the opinion that the Indians came from Mexico, and this belief is sustained by the fact that Mexicans and deserters from colored regiments were with them, such deserters universally escaping into Mexico, The Sioux Marder Contradicted. A despatch from Helena, Montana, to the Com- missioner of Indian Affairs, states that the rumor of the murder of Simmons and others by Sioux In- dians is false. All is quiet on the Missouri and the affairs of the Sioux Indians are in excellent shape. The above is from General Vial, Superintendent of Indian Affairs for Montana. Terror Ajong the Texan Border—A Bad Place for Deputy Collectors. George Hl. Abbott, Special Agent of the Treasury Department at El Paso del Norte, Texas, in his last report on the condition of affairs in his district, which was received at the Treasury Department to- day, says that business is virtually at a standstill, and the customs receipts are daily falling off, The Apaches and Cochise Indians, armed with the best. of guns, keep everybody along the Rio Grande ina state of excitement for fear of attack. There is no safety except in the protection of our troops, The Deputy Collectors of Customs are sending in thetr resignations, refusing to en- danger their lives any longer. Deputy Collector J. M. Leijan, at Presidio del Norte, is the only American at the place, all the rest having fled from the border for protection, Several attempts have been made to enter his house, but have every time been successfully resisted with the assistance of his dogs, He has asked to be relieved without delay. Mr. Abbott appeals for troops, that he may have an escort to visit the different parts of his district. The application has been sent to the Secretary of War by Secretary Boutwell. Anything to Beat Greeley. It is rumored here that the free traders, disgusted with the Cincinnati nomiiations, have determined to call another convention end nominate candi- dates in favor of free trade, or anything to beat Greeley. ek “rar A Two-Term Shake All Round. There 18 gathority for denying the truth of the statement that President Grant, in a conversation with an Ohio republican Congressman recently, said, in case of his re-election, he intended to make @ general change of office-holders throughout the country; and, as a rule, he did not believe any per- ‘enbrtly after retarni | son who held ofce during one administration should be retained during a second one, but it was simple justice to keep all faithful oMcers until they had served four years, It is denied that the Presi- dent ever held such a conversation.

These boats make regular trips between Breckenridge, Minn., and Fort Garry, in the Province of Manitoba, There are but two barges employed in the same Customs Reecipts.

The following is the text of the tari portion of the Revenue bill as completed in Committee of the Whole to-day.

We publish afew of them reflecting both sides of the question :— ; FROM ONE WHO KNOWS RY EXPERIENCE, To ME Eprror OF THE HERALD;— Seeing that you have taken an interest in the un- fortunate boys of the House of Refage, I can safely Bay that those boys in the Tombs told you the whole trath, for I have experts"yea it myself, There is nothing but cruel treatment froth the time you go there till you go out, These boys tell the truth, for they beat them with clubs or anything they can get hold of, I have seen boys knocked down like brutes, Iwas in hopes Bergh might go up there and pba these boys instead of the animals, for I think hey are of more importance than animals. I am surprised at not hearing something fiom Judge Dowling. I hope he may look after the interest of the boys, for I know that they suffer a great deal from these brutes of men. It is thne some one did something for those men or boys. this may prove to do some good. Yours, respect- fully, A.

The report in to-day’s apse of the sectarian tyranny over 600 Catholic children at the House of Refuge ed my mind back to the New England phari- i hypocrisy which is generally thought to be of the past, but which really prevails to-day in al! the public institutions throughout the land. fany other lic print than the HERALD would I am in hopes e T question | '2.—TRIPLE SHEET. I found of sufficient courage to disclose the rottenness | in the management of all or nearly all of the charitable and penal institutions of the land. You have accomplished ey your report two excellent ends—to wit, the evidence, if any was ne essary of the utter fallacy of Protestant toleration, arid the secret why graduates from our public institu- tions return upon the public with hearts full of ven- geance and soured by inf and schooled in every secret vice. public spirit enough in the Catholic population ot t House of Refuge.” The unlawful and abusive lytism exercised by our school system and where throughout public institutions will one y cause bad blood both to rise and fiow if the wise ones of the country do not correct the evil in time. AMERICAN CATHOLIC, AN INDIGNANT PROTESTANT ARGUES THE MATTER, To THe Epitor OF THE HERA: In your issue of the 12th instant I read a piece on the House of Refuge. I must say I was greatly sur- prised to read suci an article in one of our leading and influential journals, You complain that the Roman Catholic children who are kept in this in- stitution are compelled to attend Protestant wor- ship and Protestant religions instruction. You say that as the great majority of the inmates of this in- stitution are Roman Catholics they should have the services of their Church, But you forget, or wilfully ignore the fact, that these boys were sent there because they pad enw tsed some crime, Instead of being thankful that they are sent here, and not to the Penitentiary, where they would be surrounded and have to assoclate with Vicious and depraved men and women, they complain because they have not everything thetr own way. Had they minded their own business, and had not lied and stolen or committed some other crime against the government, they would not have become in. mates of the Howse Of Refuge, They toud then have made confession ta dine “Romish priest, and fereived the holy sacrament. having brought themselves into trouble, can they blame any but themselves that they are punished Is there any law on the statute books forbidding Roman Catholic children receiving mass or attending any services or instruction according to the canons of their Church? Certainly not. But | Again, had these children attended the services of their Church when they were at liberty they would not now be where they are, Again, you imply that because the majority of the inmates of the House of Refuge are Roman Catholics therefore they should have mass celebrated every Lord's Day, But you know as wellas I do there can be but one form of worship there. Who is to decide what that wor- ship shall be? Certainly not the children, but the managers. As well might the convicts at Sing Sing dictate to the keepers what food they would eat or what kind of clothes they would wear. No, if they don’t like prison fare and prison dress let ther keep out of prison. Just so with these children, If they came there of their own accord, and their parents paid for their board, then they might say ‘what religious services they would have, Again pie say that these boys are crying for the riest, Now, with a very few exceptions, you Rhow, to use A homely expression, “thia is all in my eye, Betty Martin.” That is, if 18 perfect humbug, and you knew it when you had that piece published in your paper. Children that commit crime, loat around the streets, swear, &c., are not likely to care two pins whcther they hear a Protestant minis- ter,or the mass, according to the ritual of the Church of Rome, The example of men convicted of murder, receiving what religious services Tbe refer, 18 not at alla parallel case. No one would be so inhuman as to deny them this. Certainly prisoners ap- pointed to die ought to have the consolation and advice of whatever clergyman they may choose, But with these boys it ts quite diferent. They are sent there for punishment, partly, and partly to receive moral and religious instruction, and certainly no true-minded Roman Catholic need ObIEGE 10 tue teaching Of aby minjater of tue Gosped tice, confirnfed in evil | I hope there is | his city to immediately take action on the abuse at | | | | | who would tell the only way of selvajiog-—-thronsts our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Neither should they object to the moral teaching conta ied in the Ten Commandments, The fact is, Mr, Editor, the Whoie spirit of your article 1s the same as’that which pervades the whole Romish Church, If would remove the Holy Bible from our common schools; nay, it would do away with public schools alto- Ge, and never rest until it has gamed the upper wud in this government, But God forbid that that should ever happen. There are some Protestants in this eity who yet remember last 12th of July and are not a to forget it. In conclusion, let me ask you to rly and truly answer this question:— vere the majority of the inmates of the House of Refuge Protestant, and mass was celebrated there, wonld you then complain against the sectarian rell- ate services? It Is a bad rule that don’t work oth ways. Yours truly, A PROTESTANT, AN UPTOWN CITIZEN ON THE DISCLOSURES. To THE Epitor OF THE HERALD: In your issue of yesterday you made some start- ling disclosures of the treatment of the inmates of the House of Refuge. The statement you make in regard to the punishment of the inmates is simply horrible, The man or men wno have no more respect for morals or decency than to outrage young men of sixteen in the manner described by your reporter onght to be banished from civilized Society. The idva of allowing such brutalizing punishments to be inflicted in the name of reformation is a shame on the name, Let the unruly members of the institu. tion be put on extra restraint, shut up in solitary confinement, but to subject them to a punisiment which brutalizes and destroys all shame and self- rospoct in those already too lost to it is wicked to the last degree, It is as shameful to the city as it is to the brutes who inflict this punishment that it is allowed, and that human beings are subjected to a treatment so shameful and revolting. Yours, S. HL WW, THE DEADLY DUMPING GROUNDS. puesta ales To THe Eprror or THH Herat The residents of Harlem and Yorkville present their thanks and take much pieasure and gratifica- tion in the unflinching and determined course that your valuable journal has taken in the people’s cause against a hardened contractor and his associates, who, together with some in the background, for their own aggrandizement defy the citizens and have even in the past week said that no petition or any action on their part or on their behalf could stop the dumping of offal, ashes and garbage on the East River, Now they did stop on Saturday last all day and burned a lot of stuff carly in the morning. lt is presumable that it was to prepare for a visit from the Sanitary Inspector and Commissioner Gross, who, in a report on Friday last—made by Dr. Morris and endorsed by Gross—stated therein that the nuisauce was not as bad as represented, that the street sweepings, with but little garbage, were dumped on the lots, and that the eMuvia arose ag much from swamps and marshes as from the dumping. Mr. Brown was seen to pass twice up and down the Third avenue on Saturday, and as the wind blew from the west over the river, so the Harlem boats had the benefit and the avenues were free at the time of his passing, and this, no doubt, accounts for the report. Your readers would like much to be informed, if possible, how it was before the dumping o last. yt took place that the inhabitants of the upper end of the island never had cause to complain of poisonous efluyia from the salt water, marsh and swamp lands; on the contrary, the tide passed over them twice a day, and there was no green, festering, stagnant water until the present season through Mr. Brown’s closing the water courses. If, through carelessness, a person or child receive injury by steamboat or cars, the courts give redress; but if 100,000 persons lose their lives through these dumping grounds will Mr. Grown be responsible and pay injuries sustained by disease and death? Ifa barrel of ashes are dumped in the street, or some trifling misdeed performed, the party. offending is arrested, sued and fined, je result of a@ report of the sanitary inspectors v that the Board of Health passed resolutions to take ont the stuffed seats and backs in city cars. Can you in- form us how it is that these same sanitary inspec- tors pass over without notice the fact ‘that the workmen on these dumping grounds, who at. cer- tain hours of the day crowd on the Second and Third aveuue cars among some forty or fifty passen- gers, carrying in their clothing such an insufferable, sickening, nauseous efluvia that must be the means ofspreading disease and death among the co: munity? These men are Pig od Italians who live in the closely settled tenement houses about Baxter street, It stands on record in one of your valuable issues gome few weeks ago that from one of these houses four dead bodies were taken out, and that some ten other poor wretches were on béds with fever and smallpox, the effect, no doubt, of the poison from the dumphing grounds, Is it to be supposed for amoment that gome of the emptyings from the twelve rooms of this house did not find their way to the favorite dumping grounds? After work- ing among such stuff all day these men are allowed to ride among healthy people. The very next day atter the memorial of 11,000 residents of Yorkville and Harlem was presented to the Board of Health a conductor drove off five of these men from his car on the Third avenue, So foul were the men and their clothing that the passengers and conductor could scarcely avoid vomiting. This is no exagger- ation but an everyday occurrence, as some con- ductors will not carry them, rightly consideving that they are not obliged to carry a nuisance. Would it not be well if the tugboat carried th men, in place of mixing them up with the com- munity at large to spread tagion aud disease? Last Thursday a woman residing on Third avenue, between 105th and 106th streets, became sick and was unable to eat through a puff from the dumping ground; this can be proved in Court if need be, On Sunday the stench was very offensive all day. Will the Board of Health have these grounds disinfected and covered ‘with good earth, und means used to abate in some measure the poison now sickening the atmosphere? Or is it to remain as itis? Some suppose that Dr. Morris and Commissioner Gross are demented, If so, they had better resign and make room for abler men in their places? What can th y, be thinking of, to array themselves against indisputable and provable facts set forth by twenty physicians and 11,000 persons, whose signatures were presented to the Board of Health? Dr. Smith, of the Board, saw through the whitewash brush. The diseases principally generated by this public nuisance are spotted fever, typhoid fever, yellow fe searlet fever, cholera and smallpox, and there are times when the poison arising bom this practice of filing in with garbage and all kinds of putrid filth becomes more intensified than at others, as after a summer's rain storm, followed by a burn- ing sun, raising the deadly vapor like smoke from a dang heap. A slight elevation in the temperature during the last week has very sensibly increased the poisonous exhalations from this nutsance, giving uninistaka- ble warning of approaching disease and death. ofally and profitably em- ployed for fertilizing purposes, but when aggre- gated in large masses for filling up it becomes the nucleus of deat-generating poisons, exhaling va- pors Which impregnate the surrounding atmos- phere, ing pestilence and death in their train, There have been more fimerals passing on Third avenue diving the period of the last five months | than in the last four years, The poison dissemt- | ed by the nulsance complained of will assurediy > productive Of fatal consequences to the city of | New York if these grounds are not covered with several feet of pure earth and tinmediate disinfect- ing means are not applied aud constantly kept up (uring the next six months of warm weather on the grounds diinded io. By the statements in your paper of the 2ist and 28th of April 73,000 loads were removed in twelve dara from the lower part of the ity. About éne-hali ‘of this, say $6,000 joads, to- her with some 27,000 loads since, making in all 63,000 loads, have been dumped in one mass y-second street and added to that al- ready dumped during iné past year, ‘Through the four #ast side public highways—to wit, in tie cargon the Fourth, Third and Second avenues and Harlem boats—some 50,000 persons iy last year to their business through the atmosphere, sy all these can testify to rous and sickening consequences of the reco may visit the population passed complained of. It is not an exaggeration say that an condition is so shamefully im- erilled, and that these dumping places threaten to Whidse sanitar »e productive of greater mortality and commercial ruin than all the other nuisances of the city put ast year the parties engaged in filling in, after complaint had been made to the Board of Health, were ordered to disinfect the grounds, and made pretence to abate the nuisance in this wise, while dally adding thousands of loads of filth to the pol- sonous mass:—A wheelbarrow or two would be paraded on the ground, containing chloride of lime, and a spadeful here and there was thrown out, but the nuisance all the while was increased by a daily addition of thousands of tons of death-generating filth, and J. L. Broa, Sayin the risk and ite de- structive tendency, thought it best to remove him- self and family to Westchester county out of harm's Wii What a farce, what a mockery! Nero fiddled while Rome was burning. Does not the Board of Health possess the power to act and abate such evils without delay ? Ts it good policy to drive law-abiding citizens to desperation. The Quarantine buildings were burned on the night of the Atlantic Cable celebration be- cause the Commissioners appointed for their remo- val did nothing for five years. The citizens of Harlem and Yorkville do dot feel like being trampled on or trifed with much longer, It is dangerous to good order to compel people to take law in their own hands to redress grievances that the Roper author- ities should perform by ‘each doing their duty; but if driven to extremes, to protect their tives and those of their wives and children the powers that aru haa. foptinad that each will perform his duty ome and family, D This ‘communication was intended to have been only # few lines, but the subject Is one of such grave importance, and, being aware of the interes! you take with’ reference to it, I trust that you will not think I trespass.

Verse, as 18 Well known from its earliest record to date, In behalf of 1 Wane May 16 ded MR. GREELEY'S MOVEMENTS. He Passes the Day at the Lincoln Cluab—Rea coives Visits and Answers Letters—His New White Hat—His New Photographs, Mr. Greeley passed nearly the whole day yestere day in the parlors of the Lincoln Club House, 20 East Twenty-first street, where the State Execue tive Committee of the Liberal Republicans has ite headquarters. He busied himself all day in reads ing the newspapers and answering his lettersy which were brought to him in huge bundles from the Tribune office at intervals during the day, H@ received @ number of callers also, to whom he ate tended with his usual urbanity without in the leasé relaxing his attention to the other business beford him. He wore his customary suit of solemm black, the coat cut pigeon tail fashion, and his first white hat of the season—a sptck, span new one of soft felt, with wide brim and white ribbony: one of ahundred or two that have been sent hing by enthusiastic admirers—was latd away recklessly among the materials and implements of trade om his writing desk, The writing desk on this occas sion was the sideboard, or wine buset, in the backt parlor, He wrote in his regular high-backed atti4 tude, and his papers were strewn promiscuously among wine glasses. The philosopher, sternly ab+ stemous as he Is, doesn’t feel too holy to go whera wine drinking goes on, nor does he propose, in the self-righteous spirit of the Pharisee, to bind all ment to his own little theories, The larger parlor of the Lincoln Club Rooms if profusely adorned with engravings of the great spirits and stirring scenes of the war. A picture of Abraham Lincoln gazes sadly across one of the gah windows at a scene of destruction representing a incident on the March to the Sea; the flgure of Sher- idan on his famous “ride” {s glaring sternly at the calm figure of the Philosopher in the Studios ‘the stolid face of General Grant looks solemnly acros: the room at the scene of Washington and his Generals on the opposite wall, an wh large oll painting, by Carpenter, the painter of the famous scene of Lincoln Signing the Emancipation Proclamation, represents the Chap- paquan Sage himself above the mantelpiece, be¢ nignly bebcowing the light of his countenance upon all the other objects In the room. Upon a higit shelf in the rear parlor, with its sightiess eyes and sad, homely face overlooking the philosopher at hig, work, rests a large bust of Abraham Lincoln. ) Among the visitors who called during the day were Mr. L. U, Reavis, the capital mover who hopes to squelch the presum tious enterprise of Chica: by taking the White House, Capitol and all the ex- ecutive departments to St. Louis; ex-State Senator Lawrence, of Brooklyn, who _ said he had been a lifelong and bitter demo« crat, but wanted to give in his adherenca to Horace Greeley; Daniel D. Conover, Walda Hutchins, Samuel Sinclair and a number of others, It was notable that one or two of his brothers-in- law and journalistic li , Who are in the new order of things debarred from any hope of emolument on his succession to the Presidency, stick manfully to his side and work zealously among his friends, Not theirs the homage which self-interest is But that of love, Tiselt the highest praise. It is conceded on all hands that brothers-in-law) cousins and business pa ra will fare very ¥ in the distribution of offices if Mr. Greeley ever had any to distribute. } package of photographs of the philosopher were brought in from @ popular photographer's un the afternoon and their truthfulness to natura was highly commended, About six o'clock Mr. Greeley, in company with Waldo Hutchins ant Samuel Sinclair, waiked up to the Union League Club and took dinner, ‘The busy crowds on Broad- way passed and jostled the benignant sage, and every one turned a ond time to notice his figura and gait and to remark the bran new white felt hat which he wore. Other than this there was ag little respect or deference shown to the great noml- nee as crowded Broadway usually shows alike td the most ordinary and the greatest in her passing throng.

[From the Go..ton Age, May 18.) Another current absurdity about him is that while he is an honest man himself, he is surrounded by a coterie of knaves. Mr. Greeley habitually as- soclates with the best men and women of his time, Editors, lawyers, senators, judges, governors—from all parts of the country—these are the people who datly seck him, and with whom he eats and drinks, Of course a newspaper office keeps an open gate to all comers, and as Mr. Greeley is the moat ac- cessible of men, very a schemers, charlatans aud rogues ag 3 with the rest, sainting him and receiving [In return his self-absorbed and half-recognizing nod. But anybody who imagines that Mr. Greeley has not a disciplined and penctrating instinct for character makes as great a mistake as in sapeoring that, when he goes to sleep in church, he does not hear the sermon. We have known Mr. Greeley to sleep through « long speech, and then at its close rise and reply to it, point for, point. In like manner, through the same genti oblivion which some people fancy rests upon his judgment of men, there is a wakefulpess of seru- tiny which detects the scoundrel at a glance. In ae sort of insight he reminds us of Abraham Lin- coln. Another of the fallacies is that he is given ta blunders, We do not say that Mr. Greeley 1s free from blundering. But if must be remembered that’ the editor of a daily paper is necessarily a frequent blunderer. No matter who the man is, if he publicly. prints his opinion three hundred and sixty-five tii a year, he wilh inevitably be wrong sometimes—nay, often. An- other person may walt till his judgment of a case ripens, but an editor must express his judgment without waiting. Accordingly, le says to-day wha’ he must unsay t i This is the ex (hiss of his profession. remost man tn it is not free from the law which concludes all its votaries in this common infirmity of misjudgment. But put any. other man on such a rostrum as the Tribune, and bid him speak six days in the week for thirty years, and count his blunders during that timet Who could have done better than Mr, Greeley ? Nay, who could have done so well? Then, too, even where he has fatied, his “failings have leaned to virtue’s side.” He has never biuudered into en. riching lis private pockets, He has never stumb! into the public tre with grasping and grabbing hands, He has never tripped by happy accident into the County Court UHuuse, lined with purple carpets and golden chairs. ‘His chief blunders have been against himself, and not against his country, And such are virtuous vit Another of the popular ‘aprices ia that he is not @ safe man, Thisis a vague and cfinite indict- ment. If it means that the federal ninent would be unsteady in his hands—ch one policy to-day aud another to-morro could be further from the truth, Mr. stead in his intellectual Judgmen his moral convictions. Fickieness does not belong to his nature. His sin his earnestness, his straightforwardness—all these qualities are as patent as the sunshine to all who know him well enough to know anything of the movements of his mind. He would be as safe, as prudent, as con. servative a President as ever sat in the executive chair; his administration would deal pre-eminently with the business interests and practical develop. ment of fhe country; he would have the grandest Cabinet that the nation could preduce, and his mine isters and all their under-ofiicers would be ex- ected to work about eighteen hours out of the wenty-four—under the tireless example of their chief, whois one of the hardest working of “the gong of toll,” We havé thought fit to notice these fallacies to-day, and shall from time to time correct other misjudgments concerning one of the best known yet least understood of American statesmen, FIRE IN LEONARD STREET, A Woman Burned to a Crisp=—The Body Not Identified.
