Thess men, with the stipendiaries of the Internal Re nue Depariment, are perambulating the in terior with their hands full of greenbdack# and promises of patronage, carrying primary meetings and bribing members of district conventions, in order to secure delegates to a Weolation in favor of Grant's renonrination © Great is the power of money and patron age.

RevNo1ns, the commander of that d partment, has exerted himself to theertent of making a languid report, in which he briefly states that “ these depredations might be put an end to by pursuing the marauders into Mexico ;” and that seems to be the full ex- tent of the Government's interference.
