t iy? ??????? What is it if not Bribery? General Grant can't be bribed, they tell us. Oh, no, he only accepts tens of thousands of dollars from gentlemen, and bestows offices upon them equal in value to the money. Ancient Pistol scorned the word "steal," as applied to himself and his fellows, and insisted that "convey" should be substituted; and, if Grant's friends want some other word thm bribery used in his case, we respectfully invite them to tell us what one they would suggest. Four of the heavy contributors to bis wealth, men that the country never heard of, are actually members of his Cabinet, and perhaps three others contributors, not known as such to the public, make up the rest of "the Cabinet. We may be told that the fact of his selection, as four of his Cabinet officers, of four of his contributors, was a mere coincidence, a happening, a ' chance, and that he would have selected exactly those same four obscure individuals if they had never given him a dollar, but is any fool enough to believe this or to expect anybody else to believe it ? If G/ant has not taken bribes, " " ' * : : Ornery is D;?t an iiiu'-giuujj vi??v. , Nei'j Orleans Times. J The money in the New York Sub'Treasury has recently been counted by ; sixty-six expert accountants. The work j commenced on the 29th ult., aud con- ( tinned eleven days. After the greenbacks, to the amount of over $30,000,- ( 000, had been twice counted, and the j total had beeo found to tally exactly ( with the figures given by Mr. Van Dyck, j the bags of gold and silver were attack- ( sd, the seals broken, the sewing ripped , open, and the contents poured out on the iron floor. Then fifty small streams of the metal, ''though lost to sight to memory dear,/ flew in every direction from fifty pairs of hands from one pile to another aud back again, as one set of accountants took the other'B place, and | the merry chinking diversified the or- [ dcrly confusion of the men's voices.? Nearly $70,000,000 in gold and $*00,000 iu silver were thus handled and replaced in bags, sewed op and sealed.? Then $3,000,000 in shining gold bars were weighed, counted and packed away, and on Saturday morning, the tired accountants stood on their feet, rubbed their eyes, stretched their backs, folded their dusters, and like the Arabs, noiseless stole awey. It was fi und that Uncle Samuel had in his cofF rs in New York $102,727,643.29.
