It seems ttKe Secretary of War hot only demanded annual pay for the offices at hia disposal, but also required a nice little contingent fee even for, the formal ceremony of an introduction ! That little trick of Mr. Belknap for obtaining money frr the distinguished honor ol an introduc tion to himself, has something so novtl and unusual in it, that we are taken cnmnletelv bv s urDrise and are , t comment8 to make u; If tbe generftlity of U8 should . thi3 Davment of a certain sum before should admit one of the common herd into oursacred presence, we would starve iguominuously" the fi.rst.week of our new departure. We never -'have-seen the 'man we would pay any considerable amount ior tue simple formality of making a bow and breaking the ice with the usual intro ductory remarks, and the Belknap affair is the'first instance we ever read of, where a distinguished efficral ever demanded a ticket for admission to his good will and esteem. Edwin Booth the great actor, it is said, made the. handsome fortune of $52,000 on his recent Southern tour, but then he was different from Belknap, because he was a public actor, .and ail had to buy tickets alike to hear him, for he was then only following his profession. But Belknap, no doubt, thought that his time was his money, and it washis duty to make his hay while the sun shone, and though Mr. Evans did pay .a high price for his ticket of xntroduc- Mr. Belknap was honest enough to eive "him a reserved seat, a wide berth "and a good fat office, WE PAUSE FOR A REPLY. WhertHolden,' of North Carolina, was?impeachedJby a Democratic Leg islature, although a portion of his own political associates voted for his con viction, the Administration press rang over the whole country that the rebell ion had again broken loose in the South. When Lieut. Gov. Davis, of Mis3., was called to the bar of a Democratic Legislature to answer for the violation of the laws he had sworn to support; even though a majority, of his Repub lican brethren acquiesed in his convic tion, there was a long, loud, and savage howl from the Administration kennel that it was the work of a dark conspir acy and a red handed Ku-Klux Demo cracv And no comes, the. intelligence thatiariottv&r Radical official, ihlthe person of Judge Montgomery Moses, has been convicted and removed from office for high crimes and misdemean ors.Bott this time, this distinguished Radical villain" has been brought to grief by the South Carolina Legisla ture, 'a body that is strongly and o ver- whelmingly Republican! Still it is a Radical punished for stealing in the Rebel South! What will the Admin istration cry now be? Is it a Ku-Klux conspiracy? Is it political intimidation?

Centennial I Contributions to a Museum Our. deep 'interest iutbe feucccei of the coming International Exhibition at Philadelphia, no less than a" desire that all the nations of the world to be represented thereat myseethe l?st products of our civilization, leads us to suggest that the great exhibition will be rendered much more attrac tive by a collection of curidsities char acteristic of the glorious Administra tion of President Grant, and which may be considered as distinctively illustrative of what will so&nbe known to the very ends of the earth as Grant ism. Here are a few articles which might be thus displayed ; a long cata logue in our editorial drawer is at the disposal of our friends ia Philadelphia it they mean business. The deed which admitted U. S. I Grant to a share in the snoils of the District Ring. The laudaulet which Attornev-Gener- al Williams bought for the use of his wife and paid for out of the Treasury of the United States. The order' by which tbe drunken Judge Durell stole the liberties of the people of Louisiana, accom panied by the telegram by which the President sustained that order. The order by which the President authorized. Leet and Stocking to plun der the merchants of New York at descretion; The gold watch which General Ingalls presented to Mrs. Grant, in order to secure favor in the White House, and thereby promotion in the army. The dispatch which Secretary Belk nap assured the Rough-Riding Sheri dan that the "President and all of us" sustained his persecution of the peo ple of Louisiana. The letter in which Senator Carpen ter acknowledged the receipt of a bribe of $500 from Governor Kellogg, of Louisiana, and declared it a "god send." Oakes Ames's check-book showing the amounts paid by that gentleman to Vice-President Colfax, Senator Patterson, and other bright and shin ing lights in the Party of Great Moral Ideas for their participation in the Credit-Mobilier swindle. The white hat of honest old Horace Greeley, who was murdered by the treachery of the party he founded, and slanderous assaults of the newspapers, who resisted his exposures ot the in famies of the Grant administration. Senators Patterson, of South Caro lina, and Spencer, of Albania, two of a large collection, s specimens f pur chasers of State Legislature. Moses, the Rebber Governor, and Moses, the corrupt judge, asspecinrens of a class of officials who have grown np under the distinguished patronage of President Grant. The wife of a member of the Cabi net who came to Washington penni less, and is now worth many thous ands; decked off in Paris millinery. A strawsbid contract, illustrating a system much in vogue in, Washington for years past, and which Postmaster General Jewell proposes to break up some day. Morton s time-worn and tattered Bloody Shirt, worn for this occasion by Mr. Blaine. "A -Avhiskey King with Uabcock as the Bull in the Ring. The standard work on Draw-Poker oy our Minister 1'ienipotentiary and nvoy Extraordinary at the Court of St. Jam es. A certificate of deposit in the Freed - man's Bank worth five cents on the ollar. A post trader of the Belknap pat tern. An Administration editor in pern io m tentiary uniform all the way St. Louis. Richmond Enquirer. Sharon and Jones Gossiping about Washington nota bilities, Olive Logan writes to the Graphic that the most curious study of all is benator feharon, the lone star of the Comstock-Mine. He isa small ish man with a neat moustache, and hair with locks as though it had been a handsome blonde before the erev came. His complexion would seem to indicate that Sharon hadn't carried a parasol as much as he ought there in the gulches : it is sun-browned and dryland the gentleman himself would be called by those epigrammatic Frenchman ua fruit see. To picture to you tne expression ot onaron s coun tenance as -he gazes around upon his brother Senators and the hall general ly, would be impossible. There is the strongest mingling of boredom and 9emi-contempt in it. The immediate inference is that this pecunious has bitten the russet apple of Senatorial greatness and finds it ashes, palling to his taste. Ihere is a look of newness aoout him. too a sort of "Great Meavens i, w nat snail i qo witn my selfi whllethis tiresome talk about thihgs'I m not interested in its pour ing out l which is the most marked contrast to the easy dawdling of some listles8Sepators ; or to the comforta ble .ierusaif bf letters and papers by others; or the rising and hinging themselves on the outer solas by others; or the ceaseless tramp there 'you see, I walk up and down to keep brderin school" ofthe perambulat ing pedagogue, Uhnstiancy. Sharon looks as if he thought the Senatorial honors hadn't panned out as well as he expected; and that , 'he'd half a mind to abandon the land.

Monday .morning Luckev and Bab- cock were at their posts as usual in the v nice nouse. iney louna joi. xxea. Grant and Ulysses S. Grant, Jr., who is familiarly known as "Buck," opening the mail. Babeock and Luckey re ceived the congratulations of their friends as they called, and gave out that they were to remain on deck. There was some surprise, and a good deal of murmuring among the Repub lican politicians, but nobody supposed it wouJd amount to anything if Bab cock and Luckey had made up their minds to "stick." Presently there was a message to go to the Senate. The President said when it was ready he would like "Buck" to take it. This rather surprised the St. Louis heroes. Alter a time the President called Luckey into his room, and while look ing at his boots said, ''I think I will have 'Buck' open the mail hereafter." Luckey made no reply. Grant then said, "I think I will have 'Buck' act as my Private Secretary hereafter. Luckey now realized what was the matter, and inquired whether he had done anything to offend the President. 'No," said Grant, nothing, but the newspapers will keep .pitching intoyou and me about the St. Louis trial if you remain here, and it won't be pleasant for either of us." Luckey intimated that his leaving the White House at this particular time would be taken by the people as a reflection upon him for his part in the St. Louis business. "No it won't" said tbe President, "for to show that I have confidence in you I will give you a place in the Interior Department." Luckey bowed himself out. It was now Babeock s turn, and as the President called him in, Jjuckey winked at him knowingly, as much as to sav: "Now for your head." "Gen eral," said the President, "these news papers are making a great howl about your return to duty at the White House, and there are some of your friends who think your presence here will injure the party and may do us great immediate harm in New Hamp shire and Connecticut. I think under the circumstances you had better move up to the office of Commission er of Public Buildings and Grounds, at Twenty-first Street and Pennsylvania avenue. The General made no reply, but retnrned to his room and gather ed up his papers. "Well, Bab, said Luckey, as soon as he discovered the nature of the President's interview with his friend, "our St. Louis busi ness ain;t much of a victory after all, eh, old bop?" "Oo," said Babeock "damn these newspapers: thev have played the devil with us." Among the wise sa nigs for the year are tne following: A blind man's wife needs no paint Death is before the old man's face and may be at the young one's back. iteview the time vou nave mis spent; think upon it and lament. Sloth is an argument of a mean and degenerate mind. Evil company makes the good bad, and the bad worse. Good men are safe when evil ones are at variance. Recreation should fit us for busi ness, not rob vis of time. He that can do us au injury may at onetime or other do us a kind ness. Dissolution.
