TUB OBKAT HCANDAI,,
For the past week, the great Amer
can scandal, has tilled the public
mind; the public press, and furnished
the one absorbing topic. In its enor.
niitv it has overshadowed mere party
and attached itself to the Government.
It is a stigma upon the American poo
pie, and will be so regarded by all
thinking men. That a country should
foster into dominating proportions a
party, whose preferred leader', should
beguilyof such flagrant malfeasance
in the exalted and honorable position
which they fill will be a roproach upon
that country, wherever its history is
known, and as long as it shall be read.
Poor Belknap is prominent just now,
because of the positive proof against
him, and his virtual confession, but
that he is no more guilty than many
others, is a belief in which all ordi
narily informed, candid persons must
concur. The w jole official atmos
phere is reeking with aristocratic crime*
Of the ProsiUent's actual participa
tion and guijt there can be little or
no doubt. The chief anxiety of the
administration is to stop exposures,
cover up crime, and protect criminals.
Rut for the election of a Democratic
House peculations, frauds, bribery,
corruption and stealing would have
gone on, unrestrained, unchecked,
unexposed and unpunished. What a
picture is presented. 7he President
of the United States suspected,
and so stongly so, as to amount
to absolute belief ■in the minds of
many, very many, of bartering the
patronage of his high office for profit
to himself. Hia bosom friends and
associates, so lately, some of theui now
convicted felons; aud others, who es
caped a judicial verdict of guilty,
through the connivance of the admin
istration, as is charged, and who had
the aotivo sympathy of the aduiiuis.
tration aa is known, have been promo
.. plaoe and raised in the confi
dence and appreciation of the President
of this great government Cabinet
officers, arrested by policemen, and
a watch pat upon them, to prevent
flight as petty constables would arrest
and watch a chicken thief. Our
Foreign Ministers fleeing the coun.
tries to whioh they are accredited
pursued by policemen seeking their
arrest for swindling, their necessary
haste forbidding the ceremonies that
custom and courtesy demaud upon
leave taking. And after making good
their escape fivm the country, to be
persued by foreign war vessels sent
out to effect their capture before
reaching American jurisdiction, to
the end that they may be tried before
the courts of the country whoso cit.
izena they had swindled. Grave ,
Senators charged with, and proven to
have gained their seats by bribery
and intimidation and corruption, (
-Veinbers of Congress being tried
for selling the ap|tointmenta incident
to their high plaoes.
Not a cabinet officer, with perhap
one exception, who.is not suspected.
The administration of U. S. Grant
will go down to history as the black i
era, in the lif* of this couutry. 
»Feelings of partisan exultations '
should be stilled, in the presence of a
nations scandal. JVo flip|iaut com- '
meut, or jeering remark should be ,
made in connection with a piostit u . 
tion that blackens the whole couq. «
try. 
The administration of the Govern. 1
meat is as corrupt, and devoid of hon- "
oruble ton«,aa is the administration oi j
a modem tottery, or a" Pet«r Funk (
auction house. No American whose (
prominence identifies him with the i
glory or shame of Ma oo .ntry can e» i
cape. Tiie 'daek sheet of infamy '
viewed by the outside world, infolda J
the whole country. Sneh is the case
now, and each day lays bare a mora] (
putrefaction worse tlian the other.

Loag Harris, the radical solicitor of

victed upon the testimony of fellow
radical* of forging bills of indictment

rial alterationsin one bill, Upon which
he convicted and sent to the -peni-en
tiary a fellow radical, we presume, . as
" the great majority who find their way
* to the penitentiary are of that politi
' cal faith. This is tolerably bad, and

pondent of the Petesbnrg Index ar
raigns our Secretary of '• -State
upon the charge of knowing the dif.
ference between tweedledum
' tweedle dee, m taught hf his prede
cessor in office. The communication
is too long to insert in full but we
give the substance. N. S., the corres
pondent, says, that early last fall W.
H. Howertoii,Secretary of State made
a trip to New York, and while there
bought a bill of' Stationery amounting
to some $12,000 or $15,(>00, , which
' was delivered, and the bills duly, au
thenticated were passed over to the
' auditors office, to be audited before
warrant for payment was drawn. Hyn
' est John, as the correspondent calls
' him, thought he smelt a large sized
r | mice, in discovering the exhorbitant
prices charged for the articles, and up
on inquiry found that the prices charg
ed in the bills were much higher than
the retail prices of fcl»e articles, not
withstanding they were bought by the
wholesale, so he goes to the Governor
and a meeting of the council is called,
and a gentleman sent for who knows
the prices of the various articles
bought by the Secretary, and after
examination of samples and the bills
this gentleman put the prices at 30
per cent lower than was charged u ion
the bills. So the council summoned
throe disinterested partirs to set the
prices upon the articles, to which
Howerton agreed, who after three or
four days de liberation, out down the
billa about two thousand dollars, leav
ing son» articles untouched for want
of accurate information, Now the
charge is that there was a conspiracy
between the Secretary o State
aud the party from whom he bought,
to defraud the State by having the :
bills made out for a much larger price 1
than the goods were worth, have them
passed and paid, leavinga margin, of '
two or three thousand dollars stealings J
for some one to pocket. This is a
very grave charge but it is made, first
through (In columns of a Virginia pa- \
per, and then copied into the Raleigh (
JTewt, which says it had information t
of it before. Will the Secretary ex. I
plain, or does he prefer,.or is he com- 1
pelled to take his place in the ranks '
of the leader* of his party?

keepers to terms. Dr. Terry says that
Orville Grant was much feared on the
frontier.

Instead «r confessing, bad followed
Babeock's and Ueechers plan of stonily
deming the whole thing and using
•very legal divice to keep oat tbe
evidence against him. He would bare

If. r ; March Bth, 1876. f .
Terror and oofusion reign in the
Republican camps. The disclosures
in tW Belknap case have left them in
a, pitiable condition. They know no
way to escape the damning odium
which it casts upon the administratiota
unlean it be ta throw Grant overboard,
and this they hardly dare to do,
though a leading editorial in the Na
tional Republican the party organ
rather squints that way. The only
hope they have is in denouncing Belk
nap and this is-being done by men
knoVu to be equally guilty with the
fallen Secretary, but whose "sins have
not yet found them out."' By pursu
uig tlue course it ii hoped that popu
lar attention will be'di verted from the
fact that Belknap's frauds are a na
tional outgrowth of Radicalism, and
toturapopAlar indignation upon the
man father than the party. President
Grant, true to his instincts has en
deavored to shield not only Belknap,
butibe yet undiscovered officials by
directing all parties who nay have
becty>opnceroed in any such oases, to
be r pooseeuted uuder the bribery laws.
This .would take Marsh, as the law
provides that both the giver and re-'
ceiyer of the bribe shall be pnuiahed
alike. The consequence is that Marsh
has fled &> Canada to avoid process
and even if he were indicted for bri
bery xonkl not be extradited.. Other
witnesses who have been parties to
suoh transactions, not only with the
Secretary of War, but with other
leading republicans, will he prevented

The Executive, Legjiietive mod Jn

from 4m fMftWopriation of Isst jMr
is over #.\000,000 and If the reeomen

than make good hia declaration that
ho would reduoe the expenaea of the

e very yean This will be a good
enough showing to go into the cam*
paign on and would be one of the best
1 financial measure* that can be adoped
8 Unfortunately the finance question
* is still unsettled. Why it should be
I so is a mystery.
i, . It is sheer nonsense for the Demo
crats of the House to quarel on this
- measure, for they ought to know that
any party policy they may adopt will
.. probably be defeated by the Republi
can senate. The best thing they can
e do is to let the matter rest exactly
' where it is. . They are not responsible
1 for the situation. By failing to touch
* it they can show that all the evils
I now in existence sprung from'republi
i can ism, and this will gain the party
t .more votes than any reform,even if one
could be made.The people are dis
f satisfied with the uresent condition of
affairs. Shertiian s sham satisfies no
, one. The hard mohey men denounce it
as freely as do the greenback men. It
i should be let alone and the |ie'ople will
naturally turn to the democratic party
I for relief from this as well as the other'
■ evils of republican rnle.
1 - The central executive committee is
hard at work. The campaign in New
, Hampshire is very lively and the
, Belknap exposnr* renders it almost
certain that that State will go deraoc
-1 ratic. A number of leading demo
' crkts Have gone there to make speeches.
The election is important, more for
ita prestago and bearings upon, the
. future than for - reason.
Fortunately the navy yard frauds
cannot be repeated tHis year, and this
lessens naturally the republican
chances. The Belknap exposure has
considerably increased Blaines chances
for the republican nomination and he
is now far ahead of all his competitors
' for that position. What strengthens
him naturally weakens Morton and
Conkling who are "thick and thin"
administration men. The nomination
of Judge Taft of Ohio was a shrewd
p ' ideal trick to try and capture the
> vote. He is to be used as an
offaett to cArl Schurz. It will not
win for the germans are disgusted
with the dishonest bribe takers and
will almost to a man vote the demo
cratic ticket. There is no news of
any moment from about.

About four o'clock on the morning

build ng iu Williamsburg New York.
A panic was caased among the inmates
who rushed about the building
they were exhausted or suffocated
There were one hnndred and eighty
flve old people in the building, and in
one part all egress had been cut off
so they went up to tho roof, uttering
piercing shrieks, and by the smoke
and fire were hid from view. Num*
bers were burned to death.
Some in jumping from windows to
escape the flames met a no .'ess certain
death. It was impossible to ostium e
the number that net a terrible death
iu the burning building, aa those
who escaped were takeu off so that
their number is likewise aukuown.
W. A. Hearne, some (line ago, in
the columns ->f the Raleigh JVews,
charged that J. C. L. Harris, Solicitor
of that judicial district, bad forged a
lnrjte number of bills of Indictment
against parties in Halilhx county, o>r
failure to list taxes. That Is that he
had drawn the hills and endorsed
i them as true bills, signing the name
of the foreman of the rraudjnry, and
also the name ol the Clerk as having
sworn, and sent witnesses, and now
ha publishes a letter tram the Snperior
Court Clerk of Halifax sustaining bis
charge. These radical officials are a
sweet set. They are oil the make all

a party, as a party, is gnilty ot bribery

damage that party then the Republican
party must outer.
