Tfiere were a acore or more of wopa

lzed°'The Foreign Benevolent Society"
when Mr. Johnson entered the room,"
He was at onoe ¡asked to donate a
few dollars as a foundation to work on,
and Mrs. Graham added:
"It would be so pleasant in after
years for you to remember that you
gave this society its first dollar and its
first kind word."
He slowly opened his wallet, drew
out a tensdollar bill, and as the ladies
xmacked their lips and clapped their
hands, he asked:
"Is this sooiety organized "to aid the
poor of foreign countries?"
"Yes—yes—yes 1" they chorused.
"And it wants money V
"Yes—yes I"

folded the bill in a tempting shape,

and the rest said:
"Why, now, Mr. Johnson 1"
"If fifteen of you can make oath
that your husbands are -not wearing
socks with holes in the heels, this
money is yours," continued the wretch.
"Just hear him 1" they exclaimed,,
each one looking at the door.
"If ten of yon have boys without
holes in the knees of their pants, this
'X' goes to the society 1'.' said John-
son.
"Such a man 1" they whispered.
"If there are five pair of stockings in
this room that don't need darning I'll
hand over the money!" he went on.
"Mr. Johnson," said Mrs. Graham,
with great dignity, "the rules of this
booiety declare that no money shall be
contributed except by members; and
as you are not a member I beg that
you will withdraw and let us proceed

New Yoifh Herald:
Tho reason assigned for those ex-
treme ac(s of authority on the parbof
the President is that he was concerned
in the whisky ring and tho Indisn
frabds.nnd. wishes to punish the prose-
cutors of Belknap and Baboock. This
is the motivo assigned by tht Presi-
dent's enemies; but we havo too much
respect for Gen. Grant to. accept, it.
Rut is he not doing «11 he can to con-*
firm this terrible impression ? Will
not the oountry think that this silent,
swift vengeance upon Dyer and the
rest is only susceptible of one explana
tion? Our complaint lies with the
Senate and the House. The Presiden t
is by no means an irresponsibly officer.
He-is ns much a servant of the neoplo
as Yaryan. and entitled to no more
consideration. It is the duty of* tho
Senate, which advises Wfth the Presi-
dent on all his appointments, to know
why these changes are made. It is the
duty of the House to protect the peo-
ple against these constant aggressions,
those daily exhibitions of personal
góvornment. Wo are ticéd óf this
manifestation of Cmsarism in the worst
form. The Republicans in the House
and Senato assume a terrible-re-
sponsility in consenting to these tyran-
nical freaks. It is natural that a man
so stolid t\nd selfish as Grant Should
care nothing about the party. The
party to him Is a sucked orsngof^ntl
so he treats it. Tho leaden must end
this business,or else the fair, auspicious
campaign of Hayes will fall into night,
and the people will rise against him as
the only assailabje representative of a
Ceesarism which'alarms and ofisnds
the nation.
