GRANT'S MALIGNITY, HOW AN OFFICER WAS REWARDED FOR DOING HIS DUTY. ——e ‘The Case of Col. Tomp'! Agatnvat the Robbery of the Government And Gets Sent Alaska-Shermau Brings him Back—Sent to Ariz Prom the Washington Putriot, Brevet Brig.-Gen. Charles Tompkins, an officer of the regular army, will be remembered by man’ rua readers as Post Quartermaster at Washington during the war. The diMcult duttes of that position will be easily understood by those who properly appreciate (he inagnitude of the means necessary to carry on the war. Tompkins Was a foarfess and tncorruptible officer, as three or four contractors, now holding office inthis city under President Grant, had reason to know. A faithful guardian of the in- toreats of the Government, he was energet and prompt in the discharge of business, and ways ploasant and courteous to those who ap: proached him. Tompkins continued at this post discharging the dificult duties of his office until after the war, ond indeed until Grant took up his head- quaiters in Washington as General of the ar rant’s appearance in Washington was the sig- nal for a marked change inthe manner of con- ducting businesa, a disposition on the part several of his officers to disregard the reguln- tions being one of the most marked features. At that time quite a number of very odd looking persons were going about Washington claiming to be members of Grant's staf, putting on airs and cutting a great swell generally, These gen- tlemen were inclined to regard the quartermas- tor's supplies as thelr personal property ; and to draw upon them regardless of the regulations. GRANT'S STAFF. Grant did, it was true, bring a very numero staf into Washington with him, some of its mem- bers being remarkable apecimems of humanity— mentally and physically, | mean, ‘There wra Parker, the Indian, whom Grant afterwar¢ Commissioner of the Indian Bureau, because he was an Indian. And there was the Great Adam Hadeau, subsequently puffer general to President Grant. There was Leet, t the “general order business,” and known to Porter and Bacock as the nive Young man of the mess. Like Badeau, Leet Was a gushing youth, and before going into the general order business, could do ornamental duty to acharm. ‘Then there was Hillyer, short, fat and fussy, and known to the staff ns the knave of spades, Hut for patent leather boots and nice broadcloth a litte man of the name of Webster took them all down, ‘This little man was quartermaster on rants staff. This ub Iittle man assumed an amount of importance y wonderful; aud his requisitions aster Tompkins’s supplies began to Jartuing, as well for quantity as irregularity. If the President's family wanted an extra ambu- lance to take a party of friends into the coun- try, of @ wagon, or anything in the Quarter- master's keeping, Webster at once made out a requisition for it. If Tompkins demurred, he was warned that the consequences would be serious to him It seemed, too, that eve: “gentleman on the staff” had’ an enlisted man for orderly and a surplus of horses, for whic they insisted on drawing subsist from the Government, trrespectiy« the regulations EXTRA FORAGE FOR GRANT'S COLTS. These things were a serious annovance to Tompkins, who several times remonstrated against them. One of the greatest sources of annoyance was that Webster was continually wanting and demanding “extra forage” for the man's (Grant's) colts, On one ¢ ster, in addition to the “extra fc for old man's colts," wanted an extra on to haul it. Tompkins remonstrated Inst this, referred to the regulations, which Were his guide, referred to the demands he had made on account of." the family,” and also intimated that Gen. Grant should be a reapect- er. not a violator, of the regulations. Here was ® moral offence offered to the. President, and coming from a subordinate at that. Of course Webster reported what Tompkins bad eaid to his master. He could not let such an oppor- tunity of showing how faithful he was to the family The fires of a malignant nature pat once kindled in Grant's breast. ‘Tomp- must pay the Ity for his too scrupulous rd for the Govesnment’s interest SENT TO ALASKA. A fow weeks after what [have related Tomp- kins was ordered er his office in this city and proc And that after a n was made of sending hita fo New Orlesius, The doomed officer had just lost a beautiful child, and his wife, a very estimable lady of this fasion, city, wad in very delicate health. He remon- strated against this harsh treatment; pleaded the feeble condition of his family, and begged to be seat to some post’ where the Climate Was not so severe, | Influential friends, too, interceded for him, and a generous young officer, who had been to a post th a most temperate climate: toexchange bis post for that to which had been assigned io deaf earto all these appeals pking must go to Alaska or resign from the army. But Tompkins was poor. He might have been rich had he used the advantages his office gave him. Had he been rich he would have thrown ‘up his com- mission, and resigned from the army rather than expose the life of bis wife to the rigors of an Alaska climate. He went to Alaska, his wife insisting on ac- panying him. And there he remained two years, or until the health of his wife was so impaired that it was evident she could not muc a lon stand the climate. Grant was elected Presid and Gen.

It was only natural that Tompkins should not like to be separated from his family, to which he was fondly attached After a year in Arizona, he made another at- tempt for a change of post, and succeeded in Gosing assigned to St. Paul, Minn, Thinking his t bles all over, and that Grant had for- otten him, he sent for his family. and was just beginning to enjoy a pleasant, cheerful home. when on order came commanding him back to Arizona, Gen, Sherman is away now, But the influence through which this mean and malig- hant act effected can be clearly traced into the xecutive Mansion.” T bave told the simple story, The public can draw its own inferenc AN EX-STAFP OFFICEK — THE BOURBBON STRAIGHTS, pactne it some ma- order was Dark Doing Porm Ofice—No nation Yer ard for Dr. € ye A number of gentlemen arrived in this ty, yesterday morning, and registered them- selves at the Astor House as a Committee from the Loulsville Convention, The party consisted of Major Moreau, of Indiana, the Hon.

THE PEOPLE WAITING FOR BOUT- WELL & CO.'S DEFENSE, ee Carefally-Worded Denint-t1 it Answered the Charge. From the World, We now have from a newspaper in Maine Mr. Blaino’s attempt at an explanation of the very serious charge made against him in documents which Tne New York Sun has recently brought to light. The charge was that Mr. Oakes Ames had appor- tloned two thousand shares of the Credit Mobilier to the profit and advai Blaine, for and in consideration of vote and influence in Congress. upon a list, in Mr. Ames’s hai.dwriting, number of mambers of Congress who hai similarly purchased by him— names of Mr, Boutwe been list including the Mr. Dawes, Mr. Garteld, Mr. Glenni Scofield of Pennsylvania, now in the field for the dishonest and branded c&hdidate of the Pennsylvania Radicals, Gen.

Mr, Ames and by the general context of the legal documents, among which It figures in an iimport= ant lawsuit now pending. ine, under the stress of an impendin as been forced to attempt to rebu this charge. His answer is a most carefull worded] and on the tace of it disingenuous and y letter. Mr. Blaine speaks of the sensational story” in regard to his and declares ever owned a dollar in'the company” ‘This ts very possibly quite true, But this does not meet the case. Mr, Blaine ts not charged with “any ownership in the Credit Mo- biller.”” What he Is charged with {s precisely this: that he allowed Mr. Oakes Ames to put aside “ two thousand shares” ‘of the stock of that company aa for Mr, Blaine, and that Mr. Blaine contrinuted to ‘action ‘hy Congress, which made those shares #0 valuable that within a very short time dividends to many times the face value of each share were de- clared, and the proceeds handed over to Mr. Blaine, Mr. Biaine doubtless never bought any of these shares; Propably, not one of them was ever transferred to him by name. But wnat M: Blaine has not answered, and what it is of the Most Immediate importance that Mr, Blaine and all the other persons named with him on Mr. Oakes Ames's list should answer, is the charg’ thit he and they allowed Mr. Oakes Ames to set ciside, ae for their heneft, sundry sharca of the Cratit Mobitier, handled those shares for their bene= At, received from them active Congressional aastst~ ‘ance, and patl over to them large uma of money produced out of those shares by the fructifying in« Nuence of that Congressional casistance, Mr, Blaine has not met this charge.

Curcaao, Sept. 10.—The city isin a high state of excitement overthe brutal and unpro- voked murders that have been perpetrated here during the past few weeks. The pante reached its climax yesterday, when citizens read in the morning papers that on Sunday night there had been another homicide committed of a more atrocious character than ite predecessors, A family returning to their home in the even- ing met two rufflans. One of these thrust a little girl into the gutter and when the father asked the reason for this un provoked assault on his child he was stabbed to the heart, dying instantly, Early yesterday morning @ paper was circulated by Henry Greenbaum, a prominent German banker of this clty, calling for @ meeting of citizens on Thursday evening. The cll simply says that the recurrence of cold-blooded mu ders in. our midst cannot — longer allowed to pass unnoticed by our citizens generally. With due-regard to the safety of soclety the people of Chicago must demand that murderers shall be hanged. Mayor Medill has been Invited to preside, but in reply he ex Presses sume doubt as to the propriety of his dolpg sv, though he does not positively refuse. Tn a conversation b with a reporter Mr. Green m explained the object of the movement as ows T think there ought to be a committee of say twenty-five leading citizens appointed to act for the community tn all such cases—Arst to assist in apprebension of murderers, and then to fol- low the casein the courts to see that the prison- er is convicted if he ts guilty.” Reporter—Then ;you propose nothing in the form of a Vigilance Committee? Mr. Greenbaum—No, we propose to assist the execution of the law, ogt to break it. I think if it were known that there was a ‘committee backed by an association of wealthy citizens to hunt the murderer, whenever there js a murder committed, and to follow him through the courts, there would be less crime tn the city than there now ts.
