General Craat TJader the Xsh of the Preeldeat. cowned as General Gsaxt may In the catalogue of military heroes, It can not be said that tha figure he cuts in the proriace of statesmanship is rery dignified or rery consistent; and we shall be oonstrained to confess ourselves greatly mistaken if there is not a pretty gun-sal eooenrreaes in the opinion that, in his just published correspondence with the President, he has, as was the case on a former occasion, coma off rery distinctly (econdbest. It is not, however, so much for the want of skin In the construction of Sentences ss for the want of discretion to regulate bis own conduct that places him la aa aspect so undesirable. That bo was guilty of double-dealing, both with the President and with tha Secretary of War, Is so apparent ia the correspondence that, with none but those who are obtti nately bent upon being blind, wLTl there be any doubt upon the subject; and that upon the question of veracity be has placed himself In a position most -unfortunate for his credit, Is squally palpable.

That General GaAxr as the President understood it accepted the office of Secretary of War evf interim with a full Intention of keeping Mr. Stastos oat, not only until his ease had been acted upoa by the Seaate, bat until the removed officer had forced himself in by the assistance of the Supreme Court, Is apparent from all the facts of tha case. air. Johssos had no reason to doubt, aad It is not easy to believe that he did doubt, what would be the action of the Senate and to remove Mr. SrAjrres simply to bar him come back again as soon as the Senate had acted on his case would be so poor a performance that no one will suppose that was what be Intended.

Iooking back over the circumstances, the General is seen Tery bold and resolute with the President, and Ttry complaisant aad flexible with the Secretary. In presents of ths former he la confident that "Mr. Stah-tox would have to appeal to the courts to re instate him;" to the latter, remembering that there ia such a thing as a Tenors of office Bin, be al dresses a favoring letter which gives great comfort to the regretting his sequestration, and expressing the hope soon to tee him back again in a place which he had filled with so much credit to himself, and so much advantage to the coun try. Ia short, General Gsast ss ia the case whh all gentlemen who begin to see Executive chairs rising ia the distance was politic To the President he made himir appear aa if holding the post sgamtt tho Secretary, to the Secretary as if holding It or him. Tha President states that there was a dis tinct understanding between himself and General Gbaxt, entered into at the War Office, that if, under reflection.

General Gsaxt should prefer not to become a party to the controTersy between himself and Stastoh, or should conclude it to be his duty to surrender the Department to sir. Stabtox upon action ia his favor by tho Seaate, be was to return the office to the President prior to a decision by the Senate, in order that, if ths President desired, he might designate some other person to perform the service which ho required. Oa being charged by the President, in the presence of the assembled Cabi net, with having made this agreement, and with having violated it, General Gbavt does not deny the truth of the charge; but replies that the Presideni might hare so understood him: I ia no wise admitted tho correctness of tho President's statement es oar conversation, though, to soften tho evident eontra. dietioa of my statement, I said, ia alluding to our first convwsatioa oa the subject, that tbe President might have twderstoad ms the way be said namely, that 1 had promised to resign ii I did not resist tho reinstatement The question not what Geieral Gsast said, but what he gave the President to understand, and what the President did understand from what was said to him by General Gkaxt. That the President wanted the office bolden against Staxtos that he appointed Grast to bold it; and that, on sot.

era! occasions, he endeavored to enforce upon Guaxt that this eras the purpose for which he was appointed, are facts to which the statements of the. President, the admissions of GaAtrr and all the circumstances of the case concur to testify. Upon the question of veracity, therefore, there ia upon one aide tbe qualified denial of General Gain a denial of the form of tbe promise rather than of its substance; and upoa the other, the word of the President, the. concur rent testimony of the other members of the Cabinet, tbe facts of the case, and the public knowledge of the end which the Presi dent was aiming to accomplish. The fact that General GnAsrr urged upoa the President the nomination of Governor Cox, of Ohio, as Secretary of War, is evidence of two things: that he was oonscioos of the reasons he had given tho President to rely upon him; and of his desire to work himself out of the difficulty In which ha felt himself placed by his pledges.

However physically brave General Gsakt may be, this part of tha affair shows aim endowed with a liar's first qualification thsabaancoof moral courage. His going to urge Btaxtotc to resign, and his failure to do it Is another item of evidence to tbe same effect. What his friend, Mr. Stabtoh, thinks of such aa aid and confederate, it is not difficult to conceive. He knows that General Gkaxt has the quali fications essential to aa implenseat; and foals that when General Gsakt has become the rrssidfnt of tbe United States, he, Eowrs Btaxtos, will be Presi dent over General General Gsaxt professes to think that his honor aa a soldier io celled la question by the Pi eel dent, aad acenses Mr.

Jos-son of aa attempt to involve him la the 'resistance to the law. for which," be aays, "yon to assume the responsibility, in order thus to destroy my character before the country." It is not tbe honor of General bast aa a soldier, but his Teraclty as a man, that ia called in question; aad la the Tery charge which he makes la the foregoing that the President atnwsnptad to involve him ia resist ance to tbe law he admits all that he else where tries to make It appear he has denied. As to the designs of the President to erer. boms his virtue aad destroy his character, it may be replied that General Gsast has saved the President all trouble on that score, by taking the mattes1 Into his own hands; and that there are Tory few Who, looking at the facts as shewa la tha correspondence, wtH care to exxbange places with General Gsast, except soch as regard personal honor of exceedingly little Importance. All things considered, the chastisement which Mr, Joxorsos lays upoa the shoulders of the trtachereus General is at justaa it is soundly administered.

The Fraadaleat Amendment to the CeastitaUs. Tbe plan of foisting aa amendment upon the Constitution, by reducing the number of States until those whose Legislatures voted for Its ratification should constitute the constitutional three-fourths majority, ia evidently an afterthought. At the time of the ratification of the amendment, kaowa as Article 13, ao question waa raised as to the entitlement of each State, whose people were bolden subject to ths Constitution, to vote upon the amendment; nor was a doubt expressed that the amendment would be defeated in ease snore than one-third of the whole number of the States to which the question was submitted should refuse to concur in the ratification, la his certificate setting forth tbe tact that the sections known aa Article IS had beea ratified, Mr.

8xwAao recited aa follows: "And whereas tbe whole number of Slates in the United States is thirty-six. and whereas the before specially named States, whose Legislatures hare ratified toe said proposed amendment constitute three-fourths of tbe whole number of States in the United States: how, tnerafbra If there were, oa the 16th of December, 1365. thirty-six States in the Union, it would be bard to show any constitutional proceeding by which the number ia now reduced to twenty seven nor is there extant any act of Congress, constitutional or unconstitutional, in which it is formally set forth that such redaction has taken place, or by which an attempt baa been made to put any State or number of States oat of the pale of the Union. That, at the aims Article 14 waa submitted to the States for ratification It was intended to be submitted to all the States, is evident from the fifth section of the Reconstruction Act of March 2, 1867, by which the admission of Senators and Representatives from tbe rebel States is made dependent upoa the previous ratification of the amendment by their Legislatureac And when said State, by a rote of its Legislature elected under such constitu--tiott, shall have adopted the amendment to tbe Constitution of the United States proposed by the Thirty-ninth Oonarees, and known as Article 11, and when said article SbaU have become a part of the Constitution of the sited States, said State shall be de dared entitled to representation in Congress, and Senators and Representatives shall be admitted therefrom Thia shows very conclusively that it not only intended to submit the question of ratification to the ten States called rebellious, but that it was actually submitted to them; otherwise bow could their acceptance of it be made a condition precedent to the admission of their Senators and Represent. Uvea? It ia now said that no States that are de.

prived of their representation ia Congress are entitled to hare a voice la the matter of rati, fication. Then why present It to them? The ten States of the South had no representation In Congress at the time when their Legislatures acted upon the I3th article; aad yet that article was submitted to them, they acted opon it, and no question was raised as to the propriety of the submission, or their right of action; nor was a doubt sxpreesed that if there bad beea a sufficient number of Northern States opposed to the amendment to make, with those of the Southern which voted against it, more than one-fourth of ths whole, it would have been declared defeated. Whether by the illegitimate action of the two Houses of Congress, Article fourteen, as it is called, is ordered to be printed ia tho ConstituTdcn, Is really, aa it seems to us, of little Importance. When the day comes for undoing, the more there is to undo the more complete and radical will be work of eradication. Each new act of extravagance only adds to the Insecurity of the whole, and hasten on the time when dissolution may be exported to begin.

Working Through a Republican Financial Mire. We see an effort is being made in Congress to make a distinction between the two currencies of the money of the Government recognizing a difference between a gold and greenback currency, so speaking tbe difference being in favor of the former; all of whieh is simply rascality. Green sack are as good as gold, or the Government is a knave and swindler for issuing the former, and declaring them to be a legal-tender ia the payment of debts; and the Courts of the United States and the States, that have held that pat meat of a debt' ia legal-leader paper money was equivalent to its payment ia gold, in so declaring, were either venal or Ignorant, or both. Let us understand where reposes the honesty or dishonesty of the Government where ia the liae of demarcation or boundary between swindling and legal robbery. This is ad ime for mincing words or phrases.

A apada must be called a spade; robbery, robbery; swindling, swindling; and no jugglery of Congress it might ss well be proclaimed bow as hereafter will prevent the people from looking behind the scenes aad exposing the imposition. Legal-tenders (greenbacks) are money equivalent to gold, or they are a Government swindlea Republican party swindle that was put off upon the people to cheat some, hoodwink others, and dernoral-isi alL. It is Republican throughout. What are they going to do about It? Ws Shall see Tbe Radical CoagTesslsaal Hsmlnao tleaa. "Macx," the Washington correspondent of the Ctwrrijr eiai, gives as aa Insight into the names that win be placed in doe time oa the Radical slate for Congress ia this county next fall.

He says: 'Oar Illustrious fellow ciusen end present distteguished Bepresentative, Ben Egglestoa, assy be considered aa already on the track for the Republican nomination. Hs says if any body else wants it, and thinks it's fun to carry the district, he welcome to it, aad puts away the proffered crown after the manner of the naif bty Julias. It was understood at one time that red Hasssrirek would be tbe nominee, but Frederick has beea warned by the fate ot annrhnr Cineinnati newspaper editor, and has taken any thing alee but courage from it.

Ia reference to Mr. Smith, "Macs" is slightly sarcastic. Hear him; Tbe otbsr Republican nominee hat not been named aloud. Doubtless he has been agreed upon, however.

tress. trmriospnnflonca of tap Ctortanatl AKnoa. at a. February lea. The unanimity with which the Democracy of the great West aad North west are bringing forward the Hon.

George H. Pendleton for the Presidency meets with a hearty response in Mow England, aad especially bare In Maine. Iadeed, since tbe declination of Horatio Seymour, aad the apostesy of Gen era! Grant, go where yon will in our State ao ether name than that of Peadletoe is mentioned among the Democracy la coa section with the nomination for the Chief-magistracy of ths Union. If the over whelming and earnest sentiment of the masses of the party is respected, I have no doubt that the vote of Maine, in the coming National Convention, will be given for your own distinguished statesman, with more heart aad seal than it baa ever yet been given for any Presidential candidate. There are peculiar reasons why the Democracy of Maine are thus tealous for the nomination of Mr.

Pendleton. Ton, of the West, complain, and justly, toe, of the onerous nature of the public debt, and yet there la not a State In tha whole Union on which that debt settles down with such crushing weight aa upon the State of Maine. The destruction of the production of exports In tha South, and our Intolerably burdensome tariff bare annihilated those two great Interestl on which we depended not only for oar prosperity, but for our brtad1 mean our shipbuilding Interest, and our commerce. Our National, State, county and municipal taxation la not lees than per can, oa our entire valuation. Thia ruinous taxation is drying up every braxch of business and industry.

Destitution and want have a' ready, crossed thousands of thresholds, aad will soon be rapping at the doors of more than one qnarter of oar homes. The plan which Mr. Pendleton hat proposed to relieve the country from its present aad evvlncreasing distress meets ths hearty approval of not only ths entire Democratic party of this State, but thousands of laboring Republicans, and the author of the p'aa has come to be regarded as the champion ot the toiling masses against aa oppressive moneyed aristocracy. Indeed, I doubt if Sir. Pendleton aad his greenback doctrine are more popular, to-day, in Ohio than In Maine.

They certainly are not more so. I observe, Messrs. Editors, in a late number of the Enquirer, that, in your speculations tn regard to the result of ths Presidential election next fall, you place Maine in the Republican column. Had you been fully aware of the great revolution that has already taken place in the Pine-tree State, yon would not have done her that injustice. Of the 33,000 majority against us, in 1866, we wiped ont 16,500 test September.

The remaining 11,500 will go by the board next September, and in the November following She will roll up a proud majority for Pendleton. PEK0BSC0T. For tbe Cincinnati Enquirer.

Pick pockbts We are, at the present time, Inflicted or afflicted with a large influx of professional pick-pockets, for they are, evidently, protetilonal by the dexterous and workmanlike manner in which they manipulate. On Tuesday evening, as Mr. Charles J. W. Smith, the popular President of one of our insurance companies, was riding to his home in one of the Seventh street railroad cars, he was, on-unconsciously, eased of a gold watch and chain valued at $200.

The watch was In his fob, attached to a chain which was hooked in his rest button-hole, and the job was accomplished tn so thorough a manner that he did not feel even the slightest jerk. Taking the cue from New York, where, some time since, if you entered a car it was odds that the light-fingered gentry were about your pockets forthwith, this class of thieves have, of late, paid particular attention to the street railway cars. Hardly a day paseea but we hear of some one or more depredations of this kind, and as it was, In a great measure, stopped in New York by efficient meaeurea adopted by tbe police, a similar process should be Instituted here. UaacLT Bors. One of the Brighton cars, while passing np John street yesterday, at about one o'clock, received a fusilade of sno w-balls from a crowd of boys, one of which shattered a pane of glass and passed over a ladj't bead.

Of course, no policeman being on band, no arrest waa made. We simply pick this item out as one of many outrages, squally discreditable, which are daily committed by boys In the street, most of them the sons of respectable citizens, who would probably be equtdly astonished and shocked to bear their full fledged cursing when rebuked by a passing stranger. Indeed these juvenile outsages have progressed from bad to worse, until they have become unbearable. A few days ago, on Central avenue, the attention of police officer White was attracted by a boy in the act of compressing a snowball, and hardening It, by dipping in a paddle of water. At this juncture a boggy passed, containing a lady and gentleman, whereupon be took deliberate aim, and the lady being the nearest, it struck her over tbe left eye, inflicting a severe wound and rendering her Insensible for awhile.

The boy then ran, pursued by the officer, who, after a severe chase, captured him and conveyed him to the station-house; which, we believe, with the exception of some rough handling by Sergeant White, was all the punishment he received. The assault upon Dr. Tattler is another case in point. The doctor was driving homeward in his buggy, when in a populous thoroughfare Sixth street, we believe he was attacked by some ten or twelve young rowdies. The snow-balls, or rather lumps of ice, bit him In the head and face.

When thoroughly In a passion he got out, with the determination of pnaisbing at least oas of ths scoundrels. As his foot touched tha ground a scow ball struck him above the ankle and ruptured the muscle, causing suck sudden and intense pain as to prostrate' him, and it was feared that tbe bone was broken. Upon examination, the snow -ball was found to" contain a small bowlder, a missile to kiU a man with, at least David slew Goliab with one of much less size. We are no advocate for restricting boyish frolic, but when it assumes a devilish and malicious shspe, as in the instances above, we think that something of a more enduring punishment than a mere reagimand should be administered. w.

Dkstitctios aso PnorsssioitAL PACpraun-. While there is no question that poverty, want and destitution exist to an alarming degree. It Is at the same time certain that the city is burdened with the partial support of scores, yes, hundreds of paupers, who, too lazy to work, are the most noisy claimants for public charity. The moat heart-rending scenes of want aad suffering are not brought to light, for they are -mainly felt by those who, fallen from a better fortune, regard abject poverty as disgrace, aad who suffer aad starve In silence, rather than apply to the charitable institutions for succor, or parade their destitution to the public gaze. Such it should be the pleasure as wen ss the duty of the philanthropist to seek aad relieve, for they do not sink to so degraded a condition until every honest available channel Is dried np, and very often a slight meed of unostentatious raUef might save a whole family from despair and crime; for although too proud to beg, the moral principles to abstain from committing a and disgraceful action may be wanting.

Panperism hat become almost a trade With a large proportion of abject-minded and unprincipled persons who can, if they wQl, really make a better living than the mere existence they obtain from the bounty of the City. Bete fat a ease in point. A family of sight persons, consisting of a mother, who is a widow, two sons aged twenty-four and sweaty-two, a girl seventeen years old, three lesser, aged respectively thirteen, eleven aad nine, and a child five years old, who occupy one room ia a tenement house. The oldest boy, during the received a tolerably large Sum for bounty money, which, Qt the eyes of that Indigent family, seemed so Immense that It looked as If they would never be poor again. been long die-slpated, the dissolute habits he acquired tn his military csisar have given him a distaste for industrial pursuits, the second son has beea a loafer front his birth, and the enlr Working member of the family is tbe old woman, wbo earns three or four doKars a week by wash-leg, which, with the eoal and other aeoatsary articles sis gets frost the city, goes for the rent of the pestilential room they Inhabit, ear the rapport of tha family.

With a proper display of Indus try, the two mea and oldest gixL Instead of Bring upon charity aad the hard esratngsef the old woman, ralgnt assist in forming a eornfottabls noma, instead oT herding in a comparative pea. This, however. Is but one 'case out "of many; such degradstioa has existed as long as oar nmambrance holds, but since ths war instances bars aWmlly' multiplied." MORNING.

Tbe Lite Bald Upon the Gamblers Small Party Arrestee: How Some of tbe Fare stealers Operate. The detectives, after patting a number of the lottery-policy dealers ia hoculty, and whose cases come up before the Police Court this morning, made a alight onslaught upon tbe gay gamboliere, arresting two of the fra tornity, whose names are Lewis Sear las and James Ly tie, and who will also have an ex.

ami nation this morning. Ia connection with the operations against the two above-named gentlemen, we must notomit to state that sundry developements, we learn, hare been made cot so very creditable, if true, to the fraternity. In net, it is claimed that some of them play what la called in po lice parlance the "bog game," wh-ch is prob ably played far ofteoer than those who lose their money in such establishments have any idea of. It Is generally supposed that faro, at least, ia a fair game, and when even ao played, the chances are immensely in favor of the "bank," nut the desire of tbe gam- boliers to bank," as they call it, baa led them to exercise their Ingenuity to devise methods of partially controlling the cards. It would seem, at first sight, almost impossible to cheat at this game.

Each card, as it comes out, is registered in the ntarking-box, which, at any moment, shows what cards are The pack, too, is inclosed in a metallic case, and apparently ia beyond the control of the dealer. Notwithstanding all this, however, the recent captures by the detectives of some of these boxes clearly demonstrates that even faro, which seems to purely a game of chance, has, In reality, been made susceptible of unfair play. This ia accomplished by using packs containing more than fifty-two cards, the dealer being able to use the extra cards for swindling purposes, by means of curiously-contrived springs in the box, which can be controlled by a pressure of the finger on the We inspected one of the boxes for the mysteries of the hog game," and, while we do aot exactly understand how the springs are used, and the extra card or cards are disposed of without detection, yet it is evident the thing is done, and that the boxes are coastructed for that purpose, Kbt a ftw of the packs of cards captured, on examination, show almost imperceptible marks on the face, which, from their uniformity and character, are- evidently intended to guide the dealer. In reference to the other games carried on in gambling institutions, it is highly probable they all have their inner mysteries of the same nature as bare been developed In faro. This, after all, need hardly surprise When" men of adventure and naturally sharp Intellects (ire have several In our eye) devote themselves to games of chance as a professioa means to trmars wealth, it is bat natural that the) restraints of honor and morality should be gradually thrown ait, and the chance be substituted by the dearer expedients of tie human Intellect aad, if outsiders are foolish enough to risk their money in this way they deserve to.

Indeed I bare great satisfaction in savins: TOUR WATCHES tilVK US LESS TB0UBUI, and have worn, aad do wear, mnoh longer, without repairs, than any Watches we have ever had in use on this Road. As yon are aware, we formerly trusted to those of Eng. lish manufacture, of acknowledged good reputation, but as a class they have never kept time correctly, nor have they done as good service aa yours. In these statements I am sustained by my predecessor, Mr. Lewis, whose experience extended over a series of years.

Respectfully, EDWARD H. WILLIAMS, General Baperintendent. American Watch Company, Waltham. Kew York Central IlxIIroad. Locomotivs Dxr'T, Wsstbbb Division, Rocbbstkb, December 24, I806.

Gsktlsmss I hawe no hesitation in saying that I believe the great majority of loco-tnoUTe-englneers hare found, by experience, that WALTHAM WATCHES ARS THE MOST SATISFACTORY of any for their uses. They RUN WITH THE GREATEST ACCURACY and STEADINESS, notwithstanding the rough riding of an engine and as I have NEVER KNOWS ONE TO WEAR OUT, they must be durable. I hope to see the time when railway companies wUI generally adopt your watches, and furnish them to all engineers and conductors. In my opinion it would greatly tend to promote regularity and safety.

Bead the Evidence, and order a Safe which will preserve your Talaables through all accidental fires, not once, out twice. Claisvillb, Kt, Jan. We, the undersigned, citizens of ClavtviUe, Harrison County, certify that ws witnessed tbe compfete destruction, by fire, of two large two-story frame houses, in this place; the first one in the spring of second one in December, 1907, and that a Safe of Jos. L. Hall make, owned by N.

R. Whitehead, was In each of said houses at tbe time of their burning, which preserved its contents, (being bank notes and commercial books and cape's,) uninjured, thereby severely testing its preservative qualities. The writiDg in all the accounts and books is at legible and perfect as if just written; the edajee of the paper of tbe booh, and the loose papers, are not even discolored. Tbe fame books, and some ofthe same papers, were in tbe safe at both burnings. Signed, S.

We, tbe undersigned, further certify, that there was a six-cartridge revolver, of Smith A Wesson's make, in the ssis at the time of the second burning, fully charged, which, when taken out after the fire, was still ia good condition, and that every one of the cbarfrcs fired clear and effectively. Signtd, WM. H. J.B. HAMILTON.

Joe! B. Hamilton, further certify that I had tlx hundred dollars in greenbacki in tbe safe above referred to, at ths lime of ths first burning, which were wholly uulnjurtd, and that the safe was not repaired bet wnen the two fires. J. B. HAMILTON.

Ci.A.aii.LE, January in, liv. Hall's aaTr est Urfc I Intlaaatl, I send you, per steumrr Magnolia, my single-door safe, ref rred to in the inclosed certificates, which yoa will lease have repaired, and advise me when finished. I elwajs Intended sending it to you for repairs, after the first fire, but continued it ia use and postponed tending it, from time te time, cjtil it was caught In a second 6 re. I hope it will not, while in my poaeeesloo, be ei posed to any more tests, but I bave full confidence that even in its present conditio, it would preserve its contents through a fra nort fra. When taken out of the last fire, the outside of tbe safe was at a white welding beat, and I consider the teet as severe a one as a safe could well be subjected te, and the excellent manner In which Its contents were preserved is conclusive evidence, to my mind, of tbe superiority of the Hall safe.

Hamilton, who was insured in the Company.

I saw there one of your safes standing on the street, which bad evidently been through the fire, I was shown the books and papers, which had beea preserved in it entirely uninjured.
