DOES VINDICATION" VINDICATE t SJoro than a wcek before the a : rival in Omaha of Special Agci Hawley , ihe Omaha postal corru ] tionists openly boasted their abilit to "box him up. " Mr. Hawley M now * herej and , much as wo jcgn it , we arc , unfortunately , forced i the conclusion that ho is effectual ! boxed. From the Very outset tb pretended investigation condticte by him in the interest of the Go\ ernment has proved a transparci and' disgraceful sham. "While tL party that preferred the gray charges "against Messrs. Yost an Furay was denied the privilege < counsel in examining witnesses f IivsHawley has throughout acte * ns the attorney of the accused. Instead of'nn impartial investigi tor he assumed the role of vindicc tor. In fact he openly sought to cs culpatethe acctibcd by the most ir C1 gemous sophistry. "While conceding Mr. Hawley' ' merlt.as n vindicator of postal ras cality , the BEn doubts .excecdingl , , whether his .style of viudicatioi f "will vindicate before an unprejudi " ced populaf frlbunalL - "In' order that our readers ma ; _ .comprehend Mr. Hawley's peculia . -vie\rs of otricial1 honor and intcgri . - ty .we shail cite a fc\y .of his logicu arguments.Vhca Mr. "Win. Bam l , rgejhad.tcstifled that Postmaste ostshad'coaverted Pattce's" lotlen 4 * JW * ' establishnieiit into n bianch i > est office by pbrmitting I'attec to putu ] his owa. laail and cancel the stamps Mrv Ycst acknowledged the fact and Mr. Hawley promptly remark ed that Ibis was somewhat irregula but inasmuch as iPatlec was a libera patron of the postoflico there could b o harm iu letting him cancel hii \ stamps Bince it saved the clerks ii Cjethc postoflico much labor. y. .Now" we defy Mr. Hawley to cit - a single instance where -the Post ' office Department has ever grantc < % a permit toany merchant , banke ; ? or journalist to put "up , stamp am * fc1 ? uS'roail on his own premise " " land" without the persouol super jjyisiou 'ofa sworn postal clerk 3Iuch less can Mr. Hawley cite ai instance where the Postofllcc Department -partment has granted such cxtraor vdiiiary privileges to a lottery mana 'gen Again , the same witness tcs Miffed that postmaster Yost had hr * turned over all jnquirie to him by mail conceniinj reliability of Pat lottery to Mr. Pattce , and Mr Hawley declares there is noUiinj wrong about that , "I might liavi done the same thing. " " \Vasnohsucliaii act-ait oinphall endorsement of the lottery swindle' ' r rAngahi ; when -Yost aclnio\vlcdge < " "tVat he had received anil accepted : - * set of silver service from Patlcc , Mr Hawley thought there was nothing improper about Uiat. Taken in con jiectioa v.ith the extraordinary mailing facilities enjoyed by "Mr. Pattee , does Mr. Hawley believe this munificent gift was not well earned' ' And now we come to Mr. 5per- ry's testimony , which can. be .cor roborated by the pay rolls Jnjhe Omaha post office. .Sperry 'testifies that he signed the pay roll for$125 each month , of which amount he only received $100 and Yost retained the balance. Mr. Sperry. served ten months in the office and the Government was thus deliberately defrauded out of $250. Mr. Hawley thinks that was also somewhat irregular. In fact , he in clines to the opinion that it would have been sufficient cause to prevent Yost's appointment , but inasmuch as it was done during Griffin's administration - ministration , it is questionable whether Yost should now be held t uccount for it. , "Under this code of morals the promotion of a public thief would debar the Government from dis- misfeing him , providing the thefj was committed before he was pro raoted. This is a bold and'danger ous declaration , that a public officei known to be dishonest and odrrup may still hold a responsible positior of honor , profit and trust. Against this monstrous and in famous doctrine the BEE enters it solemn protest , both as a publii journal and a representative of th < Republican party. That party can not afford to invent or forge excuse for public corruptionists , nor wil the BEE lend itself to such a suicida task. Jf Ur. TTawley is disposed t make the postal Investigation i farce , nobody can prevent bira , "bu let him not attempt to vindicat what cannot honorably be vindi catcd , AN IHPOBTAHT DBOISIOIT , A decision involving very impoi tant principles touching the right of pubh'c carriers was rendered i the U. S. Circuit Court of Illinois on Tuesday , in the case of the AI lantic & Pacific Telegraph Compc ny against Chicago , Rock Island i Pacific Railroad Company. Th Telegraph Company accepting tb act of Congress of July 34 , J88 < 5 , f titled "an act to aid in erecting tel < graph lines , aud to secure to th government the use of the same fi postal and military , and other pui posei , ' ' commenced the constructio of a line along the route ( the R.ock Island Rail Roac between Chicago ami" Qah ? } } : The railroad company ordered tli telegraph company to desist after IHW poles were set Therefore tl telegraph cqrnpany appealed to tb United States Circuit Court for a injunction restraining the ralirpa company from interfering with.tb construction of their lines , clalmln that , as the Rock Island road cai ried the "United States mail , it wi a post road and came under tb provisions of the act of 1SGC. It was claimed in bqhajf the raj road company , that the aot in quo : tion applied only to roads travesin public domain. That the right way which had been condemne and purchased by the railroad undc the State laws was the property t the railroad company , and und < the fifth amendment to the Const tutlon , could not be taken withoi compensation. JudgeDrummond in ills dcclslo held that the act of July 24,1861 limits the powers therein conferre to such military and postal roads ( the United States as are owned c exclusively controlled by the go\ ernment. That the act does nc include railroads which have bee designated as post routes by otlu acts of Congress , over which th government exercises no cor trol , but simply contracts Ic the carriage of the mail of the United States. Tha neither under the act of 18C6 nc under any other act can Congres take or authorize the. taking of th private property of a railfoad' coi poration for the purpose.of erectin and maintaining a telegraph lin without compensation for the frau ebisc so sought to be granted. The Hennonites at Castle Garden Among the emigrants now a Castld Garden , are about COO Men jiouite ? . If these are a fair sampl of those who are to follow , we ma ; expect the great body of emigraii Mcnuonite * about to come to th United States from Russia , to , rivn their brethren in Pennsylvania am Maryland , and the States of th Northwe t , whose ancestors cam here before the Revolution Mos readers will recall the , singular his torical fact , that even Frank lin opposed the emigratioi of these people to the Province o Pennsylvania , and yet they are to day the bone and sinew of tha ' great co'mmonwealth. The.so-callec Scotch-Irish , though proverbially i thrifty race , had no chance in eon tending with the steady indusrn and economy of the German rclig ionisls , and to-uay many of thi most mngnificenf farms in theStafi are owned by the Meunonites. Oui fact as .significant as it is remarkabli is that such a , thing as poverty isam always has been , unknown among them. A poor Mennonite is harder t < find than a rich gambler. Tin reaMtJi of this is that they teacl their children industry and frugality as a rc-ligious duty , and laziness anc Ihrlftkv&ness , are among them vices to be particularly avoided They are not what the Yankee call "intelligent , " neither are ? thej "cute , " but they are extreme ] y h'mest , eminently active h earing for their own interests , with out detriment to those of thei neighbors , and so industrious tha they not only enrich themselves but as they have increased in num. hers and wealth they have conferrec incalculable blessings upon thi vhole country. They do not be lie ve in war , but if all men were likt them in developing the natural re sources of the soil by honest toi the country would soon become K rich that nobody could afford tc fight. They arc a'simple , modest earnest , industrious and frugal pe < v pie , ttnd , thpugh opposed to waranc talcing no"part in politics , tiler's an are no better or more useful citizens "V\re"liave3iacl five oisix geSbration ! of Mcnnohites bom iii this country and the stock has proved so satisfac tory that we cannot but receive the new supply with special and heart } welcome.
