Ho has accepted the resignation of Col, Exy 8. Pauxen, the wdian Affaire. For the Present at least, though to the President’s credit, there is ove corrupt rascal the less in isa! station, About five mouths so, the Board of In. dian Commissioners, a body of philanus Rentlenien, appointed by Congress expresely to protect the Indians against the rapacity of such sharke as Parken, laid before the Committee of Appropriations of the House of Representatives the moet conclusive and damaging evidence of bis miedoings. They showed that in June, 1870, he bought enormous quantities of cattle and provisions without appropriation: Viesing for pre The prices pai ner were one-half greater t! to have been, or would have beeu had he complied with the law, the amount of the excees being $250,000, Among other things he purchased and paid for vastly more cattle than were needed for immediate usc at 64 cents per pound, when he could have bought as good cattle at 4} cents per pound, and had them kept at the seller’a expense until they were required. To make the matter worse, the weight of the cattle wae fixed by guess instead of by actaal weighing, and animals that weighed less than 1,000 pounds each were peid for as weighing 1,200 pounds each. Flour and bacon were aleo bought at excessive prices, and accepted short in weight, In the matter of transportation the evi- dence showed that PARKER ccnnived at equally glering swindles. A ccntract to transport supplies to the Missouri river agen- ciee at $1.83 per ove hundred pounds was disregarded, and » new one was made at $4.80 per one hundred pounds. Only a few weeks ago it appeared that, in defiance of law, the Commissioner was sending to the Weet aj] the goods purchased on this coast over @ railroad arbitrarily selected by him. self, and at freights approved by himself alone, instead of advertising for proposals. These and other delinquencies being con- tinually exposed by the Indian Bureau, the Commissioner naturally grew restive, and finally, discovering that his opportunities of plunder were one by one cut off, he indig- In hie letter to the Presi dent he says, with amusing frankness, that “the Commissioner of Indian Affairs, under the present arrangements, is wnerely @ euper- numerary officer of the Government, his Principal duties being simply those of » clerk tos Board of Indian Commissioners, operating wholly outside of and independent of the Indian Bureau,” pocket in a crowd, find ug the detectives watching him so closely that he could not ply bis vocation, should say to his confeder. ates: “Gentlemen, the vury intrusive and disagreeable aiteations of the officers of the low render my further etay here superfluous I will at once retire.” But what says the President to thie letter? Just what might have been expected of him, Ho has no cause of complaint against Pan- KER, bat, on the contrary, aseures Lim that hie management of the Indian Bureau has Deen “in entire harmony with my policy.” It hae also been “able and discreet,” and Parker has his “hearty commendations to all with whom the accidents of life may bring you in busincas relations for integrity This, it will be remembered, le said with full knowledge of the frauds we haveabove mentioued, The President avows himself insensible to the turpitudes of hi subordinates, and when they are driven out of office by public exposure, gives them the Assurance of hie hearty friendship and sym- pathy.

That distinguished gentleman de- clined to say, and would give the Charleston authorities no satisfaction whatever. Where upon they applied to Judge WiLLaRp of tho Supreme Court for a writ of mandamus com. pelling Mr. JiLuson to show cause. It wa Granted, and now the people of that State ex- pect some racy developments. JILL8ON claims to be innocent of any , but has said to some of his friends that certain officials who vegetate ground the Stato House in Columbia have “ abgorb- ed” the fand and applied it to very uvortho- dox purposes, among which are the purchase of houses and horsce, furniture and jewelry, and the payment of salaries to unauthorized female clerks, all of which if true will go to clear JiL1s0N, but will cause a how! of anguish among the virtuous rulers of un- fortunate South Carolina, From all of which the inference is drawn that South Carolina will send Grant delo- a to the next National Republican Con- vention, ee m The Peter Fank of Cabinet. Under the present money-getting Admin. istration it seems that in nearly every quar ter from which proceeds an expenditure of public funds there is a nystematic effort to defraud the people for the pecuniary benefit of the President's immediate friends aud sup- porters. The baneful influence of the Mili- tary Ring, which has.aeeumed and apparently acquired complete control over the measures of the President for ite pwn mercenary ends, has spread through every department of pub- lic service, and each day brings to lig*t some new instance of the demoralization whter:, sesourscod Ly the tacit approval of Grant, as manifested in the San Domingo job and in tho case of Commissioner Parker, ap pears to pervade the management of national offaire in all their details. The letting of mail contracts, other than raiiroad, for the Southern States involves a vast expenditure of money. Postmaster. General CreswELL, who has already gained an unenviable notoriety through the fraudu- lent CoORPENNING claim, has been exbibit- ing peculiar financial talents {a making bis mail contracts, Proposals were invited sev- eral months ago for mail service in the divi- ion embracing Texas, Louisiane, Arkaneas, Alabama, Tennessee, and other States. Un- der the law anybody who could furnish the guarantces, with a Postmaster’s certificate, might bid. Interior Postmasters with sala. ries of $100 or $50 have teen in the habit of certifying to the responsibility of contractors who proposed to assume contracts iavolving the payment of hundreds of thousands of dollars. But it was provided that In case any bidders should fail to furnish good and sufficient securities for the performance of their service, the Postmaster-General shall proceed to contract with some other person or persons for the performance of the work. It has Leon the uniform practice of the De. partment in such cases to take the next lowest responsible bidder and give bim the contract. ‘This year a great portion of the bids made for mail service in the extreme Southern States have come from fictitious or irrespon. sible parties, who have assumed the position of Peter Funks in this great national Post Office mock auction transaction, The bids were made 60 low as to overbear all compe- tition; but they were made with no inten. tion of performing the service. The various rontes were awarded to these low bidders in accordance with the terms of the law, but when the men were called upon to fulfil the duties they had undertaken they were not to be found, Under these circumstances, an honest official would naturally award the contracts to the responsible parties who offered to per- form the service for a reasonable considera tien, But Postmaster-General CresweL tees fit to pursue « different and entirely un. precedented course. He nanounces his i tention to readvertise all the lapsed routes ; ‘and in the mean time ho will make tempo- rary contracts with such parties as be may choose to favor, giving them such terme as he sece fit. The present contractors have made immense profits out of their lettings, and it is probable that they will tako the requisite measures to secure themselves in the continuance of their emoluments, Mr. Cuesweit had ample authority to crush the combinations which in this case undoubtedly existed. The fictitious bids in al] canes were put in by parties who were iu terested in the continuanes of the present mail service with its exorbitant rates, and these bids were made for the purpose of pre- venting the acceptance of propositions made by legitimate bidders, Over one hundred aud fifty of these strew bidders have been reported since the firet of July ae failing to fulfil the terme of thelr cootracta, Mr. CrEeewkiL had only to summon the recent bidders and require them to present bonds within thirty or sixty days, and he could have gained an assurance of having the rervico performed in accordance with the requirements of the law, and for @ roa sonable remuneration, But he has chosen to open the matter anew, giving opportunitics for a repetition of the same disgraceful farce, In the mean time he will award to bis favor. ites temporary contracts on the same extray- Auant terme now existing, And thie ls the way in which the poople’s money is squan- dered under the present corrupt Adminiatra- thon, —— steamer Gen, Lyile, of the Louisville and Cin- Mr, Mixon was bora « slave im Louisiana fore he died, ade provision in his will for manu mitting Lawnance, and « brother ond the latter, and for the and im 1646 Lawnence went to Oberlin aud ep tered eoilege, but failed to graduate, in couse tour yeareor more, We married and come North, toh, o counidered « remarkaulg man by those who fied@for the duties he cflled upon to Assume.

It was ascertained that straw coukd be pat through the same pressure used with rags, say 80 or 40 pounds of steam to the square iuch, producing a better pulp than under the Metter process, though requiring Notwithetanding this, the Company claimed tbe right to control the manufscture of all wood or straw paper, ond @ combination of mavufecturers was formed to resiet the exaction. In the trial it tramepired that the patent under which the Company claimed its monopoly ex- pired on the 7(b of August, 1868, and that it was renewed on the 24th day of Juty, 1868, by the acting Commissioner of Patents, poared thet on the 23d of Jul; on, the President bi Congress which abolished the office of acting Commissioner of Patents, and Judge Woopacrr decided that the extension was thus rendered null avd void, and that the patent of the Com- pany finally expired August 7, 1868, This deci. tion opens the manplacture of paper from wood and straw to free competition. varied servioes, What is called s void on the This Company did the day before A Troy firm hae reeeatly received an order from South America for sixteen slabs of bell metal, to weigh one bundred pounds each, On one of the peaks of the Andes « house of wor- whip has Leen ereeted by some monks, and it has been determined to place a bell weigbing sixteen bundred pounds in the twrret, To transport an article of that weight up the narrow bridle Paths that leed (o the temple io the clouds would so the monks bave ordered the material iv plabs, and intend to build » furnsce op the mountain and cast the bell themselves, LAWKENCE Mixon, @ colored porter onthe | Mr, J.
