Allowing the enormous sum of S200,

ter may mean, aud supposing ihut car
pets cost 5 a yard, the remainder, nearly
550,000, would suffice to cover 113,147
square yards. There ars 85 acre3 in the
City Hall Park, or about 40,000 square
yards. Consequently, the city authori
ties have paid enough for carpets in the
new Courthouse and other county build
ings to have covered the whole City . Park

Returns from the recent election in

The Democratic majority in the State is
estimated at from 20,000 to 30,000. a
falling off from the Scymore "vote of 26,

The Presidential election in Liberia
Slay 2d, apparently resulted in the elec
tion of Roberts and Gardner as President
and Vice President, but President Roy
maintains that lie was elected for four
Tears and that his term has not expired,
lie may therefore dispute the validity of
their election.

find a rich and paying oil deposit and
that. Linn will soon be enabled to furnish
her own kerosene.

From the New York Times, July 24.J
Wo have brought very serious charges
against' Mayor Hall and Controller Con
nolly, and iu reply to theui the Mayrr
says that the city ows us a bill for
advertising which we cannot get 1 -This
is tho most remarkable defense ever
recorded in judicial annals. The Mayor
further says that the figures wc are pub
lishing were obtained from a "dishonora
ble servant" of the City Government. In
other words, the Maior admits the truth
of our charges and the accuracy of our
fgurcs, but says it is sufficient lor him
to uiscre-Jit our motives.' Ills defense is
a clear admission of guilt, let the pub
lic judge between us.
When people are accused of shameful
dishonesty, is it enough for them to say,
"I owe my accuser a bill which I will
not pay, and that is why he accuses me?"
In tho face of such charges as we have
made, it would le puerile to expose the
absurdity of the Mayor's defense. Are
the Jigures tec are publishing accurate or
not f If they are and we offer to prove
that they are they show the city official
to be dishonest. Our motives for mak
ing these exposures have nothing to de
with the subject. But we may say this
that wo voluntarily gave up the Corp

tho stealings of the ring it the past three
years, have amounted to more than ten
millions of dollars stolen outright and
yet the half of their villainy has not
been told. These thieves and swindlers
attempt no ' defense it is useless, the
statements of their transactions having
been taken from their own books. Can
honest men vote to retain such villains in

FA8T Railroading.- The Philadel-
n-ess of Julv 25th says: ;
The schedule time of the fast line east
poD tbe Pennsylvania Railroad,; from
aUmm la Harrisburg.is three hours and
- ' r minutes. On the 19th, the under
Conductor Edward M. Chase, left Altoona
twentythree minutes late, and was de
tained twenty-eight minutes at Hunting
don and Mimm, oj no ooxes, iuua io-
man who is fool enough to sujipoe that
if our attacks could have been stopped
by the city people paying us 151,000 the
money would not have been paid in five
minutes that man, we say, is welcome
to this belief.
The Mayor says that we have obtained
the accounts surreptitiously. We reply
that these accouuts are public property,
and that no matter how they had come
into our possession it was our duty to pub
lish them. Hut as a matter of fact, they
came to us in a proper manner,without any
circuaistanees connected with our mode of
obtaining them of which anybody has rea
son to be ashamed. One word more on
these irrelevant issues with regard to
what the Corporation papers may saj' of
us just now wc arc perfectly indifferent.
We have no time or inclination to follow
them, and we do not intend to be drawn
aside from our main attack. We build
our ca.-e upon the unanswerable figures
which we are now publishing, and upon
them we appeal to the impartial verdict
of the public.
Now to the main point. We yester
day published the records of a series
of warrants drawn in favor of different
persons, but all indorsed by "Ingersoll &
Co." otherwise J- II. Ingersoll, a part
ner of Tweed's, and a well knowu agent
of the Ring. What did these accounts
show ?
That for repairs and furniture supplied
to the antortes alone, during 1809 and
1870, the sum of 1,447,909 12 was
paid under warrants signed by Hall and
Connolly. On a single day, June 30,
1870, the following sums were paid on
this account :
$19,208 14
37,072 16
37,426 87
40,64'J 24
3i,7tS 26
Total $200,0C4 70
Is it probable that this amount was
ever actually paid fur one day's work
done to armories and drill rooms ?
But wo have yet the accunfs of other
firms to publish, and then it will be seen
that the checks indorsed to Ingersoll &
Co. by no means represent all the money
supposed to have been spent on armories
and drill rooms.
For furniture supplied to tho new
Court house the total paid to one firm
was 81,476,980 24.
For carpenter work done in tha new
Court-house, the following suuis were
paid :

A special Agent of the Treasury sent
out from Washington to the I'uget Sound
region of Washington Territory, has dis
covered certain irregularities in the ac-v
counts of certain prominent Government
officials there. Of course an attemptwas
made to connect the name of Gov, Salo
mon wi;h these transactions, but the
parties making the accusations failed to
make them stick. The honorable and
straightforward course of The Governor
since his appointment, his indefatigable
industry in promoting ith all his power
the best interests of the Territory, give
the lie to all such low a:.d base accusaj
tions. The Olympia Standard, edited
by 13eriah Brown, Esq., a thoroughpaced
Democratic journal, thus speaks of ' the
matter, paying Gov. Salomon a handsome
tribute of respect : :
The Radical faction hostile to Governor Salo
mon in liiis Territory, opouly manifest tlwir joy
at the exposure whK-b implicates him in tho un

because th. y are mre houe.;t, bnt becau-o they

Governor Salomon bas been made a victim to this
most atrocious- system of speculating upon the
people's money. In his private character he lia
heretofore been above reproach, and as a liublic
officer ho has done more t" houor tbe place and
serve the interests of the Territory than all his

Here is what the Rome, Georgia, Daffy
Commercial says, in an editorial under
the head of "Grant's Ku KIux Business:"
Under the authority of the force bill, :
joint committee of the House and
Senate is raised, who held their sessions
in the sity of Washington, and summon
before it men from every section of the
south to give testimony and for what
V bat use will be made of the voluminous
testimony thus adduced ? Can the Ku-,
klux be dispersed by this testimony ? We'
think not, unless they are made of thiu-
ner material than mon are usually made
There are few men in the South who
ever denied the existence of tho Kuklux.7
Through them the carpet baggers, scalla-
wairs and nesroes were taught to respect
the only true sons of the South.,
It was to prevent the Boutnern istatcs
from being "gagged," bound and made
to bear : false witness that the 2 jvuitlux
ever bad an existence. It was to coun
teract the fiendish purposes of the Radi
cal party that any ' part of the Southern
people bound themselves togemer in an
organization.
While northern Democratic members
in Congress and Northern Democratic
journals have time and again, and . still
continue to charge, from week to week,
that the existence of a Kuklux organiza
tion in the South was and is a base. fab
rication, an "abolition lie," got en up
merely for the purpose of an excuse for
granting to the Executive" more power
to oppress the late rebellious States
Southern journals boldly aeknowledg the
existence of such an organization, and
defy the Government to disperse it.

- Italia Crlebkatio.". The celebration in
honor of the occupancy of Rome as the capital of
Italy by the Italians in the city of San Francisco
on tbe 6th inst.; is pronounced the most brilliant
and artistic ever witnessed in that city. Tbe
American and Italian flags appeared side by side
throughout the procession ; there was not the
slightest allusion to the Pope or the Papal ques
tion to be seen, aod no inscription that could of
fend the religious sentiments of any portion of the
community. The highest praise . is awarded to
the Italians for the care taken to prevent offense
to any one, and for the patriotism, taste and
good sense displayed in the whole affair.

Ki.AMArn Lake Reservation. From Geo.
Mercer, who has just completed a survey of the
Klamath Lake Reservation, the Corvallis GazrH
gets the ' following, fuels : - -Tliev-ReserrationTs
about -fifty 'miles' square, and lies on' the eastern
shore of tho Middle Klamath Lake, and extends
up Sprague's river about eighteen miles above tho
Yuinttx Agenogr, and north to include the tipper
late or umran. . Tbe general appearance or tne
country, except- few valleys, is sterile and. unin
viting, and mostly coverra witu pumice stone.
Tbe country is roiling, the bills neither high nor
ubrupt, and generally covered by a fine growth of
pine timber, tree from underbrush, lue Keser
vation is well adapted to the Indians, so far as
procuring a Kvin- from routs, neb, game, etc., is
concerned, but not well adapted for carrying out
the present policy of the Indian Department.. Tho
country abounds with fine-springs. The one at
the Agency runs a sawmill and supplies an irri
gating ditch, and furnishes besides an immense
amount of water, a portion of which they propose
to uso as motive power for a grist-mill now in pro
cess of erection. As a farming country, the Klam
ath Lake region is not a success.
