John D. Defrees' Card.

We give in to day's issue a card from John D. Defrees, in relation to the slanderous charges from day to day made on him by the editor of the Terre Haute Express. We do not recollect that any paper in the State has charged Mr. Defrees with conspiring to defraud the General Government but the Express. The honor of endeavoring to blacken the character of an old and honorable citizen of Indiana, for political purposes, belongs alone to our cotemporary. For months the editor has rolled, this under his tongue as a sweet morecl. He has rung the charges upon it from day to day, until even some of his readers have complained of it. And why all this? Simply because Mr. Defrees, an old and original Republican, seeing the want of capacity on the part of the President of the United States, and the corruption practiced by the men who surround him, withdrew from the

Grant party, and is giving efficient aid to the election of Horace Greeley. To a genuine Grantite this is the unpardonable sin. To break, therefore, the influence of many of the most prominent men in the .Republican party who are now in open hostility to the re-election of Gen. Grant, their private characters are attacked by the Radical press of the country, and the most unfounded and malignant charges made against them. It is the game played by irresponsible and desperate men, and the last resort of political knaves.

How little foundation there is for the charge made by the Express against this honored citizen of our State, will be seen from Mr. Defrees' card. It explains all, and places John D. Defrees just where he has always stood, far above the reach of the puny flings of the unhedged editor of the Express.

Asa friend of Mr. Defrees, and a friend also of the right, we ask the editor to copy from the columns of the GAZKTTE this card, and do lliat act of simple jus-, tice to, perhaps, the oldest, and certainly one of the ablest journalists of the State, and one, too, whom he has most persistently calumniated.

Paying the Expenses.

It is reported that Colonel Bhinton Duncan, whose motto is "anything to beat Greeley," has professed a willingness to pay the expeuses of the approaching Louisville Convention out of his own pocket.

We trust that in this matter Colouel Duncan will be a little more enterprising than he proved himself at Baltimore. He held there what he called a convention at the time the Democratic National Convention was in session. The general expeuses of this side show were exactly $150, of which §75 was for the use of the hall aud $75 for the ladies' parlor at a hotel where the few sympathizers with Duncan assembled. When the duty of paying these two bills became pressing Judge Flanders found it necessary to contribute $140, while Colonel Duncan furnished exactly $10. Whether Flanders now has much confidence in Duncan

readiness to Louisville or able to state.

pay all the expenses at not is more than we are

THE serious work of tbe campaign is opening with great energy in New England. The result of Mr. Greeley's visit, aud his few short but admirable speeches, has been most advantageous and inspiring to the Liberal cause. Considerable inroads are making upon the Grant majority in Massachusetts, aud in Maine some of the most distinguished and eloquent men in the country have thrown themselves with vigor into the fight. There are good reports also from Connecticut, Rhode Island, aud Vermont and in general the whole East is rosy with a promise of sunrise."

BOYS will be boys. An English paper gives an account of a remarkable lad, Edwiu Smithies, who, in the Haddersfleld Police Gourfe, .charged bis schoolmaster with an assault. The dominie plead guilty to tfre eastigatign, but & &£*• torj

herniation of the caning, stated that Edward was guilty of the following offenses: 1st, general insubordination, inattention, and boisterous conduct in school 2d, profane swearing in school 3d, hitting a girl in the pit of the stomach and causing her great pain 4th, kicking a boy's shins Cell, pulling boys' hair and, 6th, pushing three children down the staircase For all these exuberant manifestions and playful diversions, the young gentleman had been 'flogged, as the magistrate thought, very properly.

A CROTCHETY paper, which has been for two years exposing the shortcomings of President Grant's Administration, and demanding a change, now supports Grant on the ground that Greeley is no better. Thereupon a correspondent brings it up with around turn. "I am willing," he says, "for the sake of the argument, to admit all you say. I don't believe Greeley is as bad as Grant, but suppose he is, haven't you seen that a prominent part of Barnard's defense was that the people re-elected him for a second term, after a full knowledge and discussion of the charges 011 which he was tried, and thereby set the sea! of approval upon his administration. My vote will not be iven toward having Carl Schurz confronted with a similar argumeut in the Senate next winter."

IN Alabama the newspapers have little dissensions as to which put the names of Greeley and Brown up tirst. "We did," says the Mobile Tribune. "We did, on the lStli of May last," says the Clayton Courier. Never mind being nice about it, gentlemen no matter at what particular hour you came into the vineyard, since you am there now and fairly at work "reconcilinit the North and the South"— to use the language ol'« the Courier—"and laboring for the peace and quiet of the whole people."

The Terre Haute Jom-na! may come in yet, and no difference how late, we will extend hands across the mulish chasm,

"Tuii American movement proposes," said Henry Wilson in 1855, "to place the government of America in the hands of Americans."

This old Know-Xothiug is now running for Vice President on the same ticket with U. S. Grant, and citizens not of American birth are asked to vote for him. Will they do so? Or will they give their suffrages instead to B. Gratz Brown of Missouri.

A Card from John 1). Defrees. To the Editor of the Express: Because I prefer a gentleman of ability, of uaequaled intelligence, and of good, sober habits, to one the reverse of these things, for President, I am traduced in some of the Grant papers in Indiana and, I am informed, the Express is among the number.

You charge, as I understand, that an indictment was found against me in Detroit, Michigan, while Superintendent of Public Printing, in Washington City.

All the truth there is in the charge is as follows: Sometime in 1&G7 or 1SGS I received a letter, without signature, informing me that, unless I paid a certain sum of money to a detective in Detroit, I would be indicted in that city for a conspiracy to defraud the Government!

As I had not been in Detroit^iucel833, and did nothing then worse than to play a few games of whist at a party given by my friend, Stevens T. Mason, the Territorial Governor and, knowing full well that I had at no other time committed any indictable offence, I did not scare enough to be black-mailed out of any money.

Previous to the establishment of the Government Printing Office, the Postmaster

General made a contract, running

for four years,

with

a Mr. Thomas, of

Buffalo, IS. Y. to print the way bills, and register of mails sent and received, for the Postoffice Department.

When printed, the blanks were delivered by Mr. Thomas to the agents of the Postoffice Department, whose receip's were the vouchers upon which the Department paid his accounts. The only duty of the Superintendent of Public Printing was to furnish the paper aud to forward the requisitions for the blanks.

It was suspected that there had been collusion between Mr. Thomas aud some of the Postoffice ageuts by whom receipts were given for a greater number of blanks than were received.

In examining info the case, the detective employed found from the books ol Mr. Thomas that he (Thomas) had paid me several thousand dollars, and he jumped to the conclusion that there was something wrong about it, and, it is said, (though don't know it,) he had my name inserted in the indictment found against Mr. Thomas and the postoffice agents at Detroit.

Upon coming to Washington the detective ascertained that the books of the Treasury Department disclosed the fact that the money paid me by Mr. Thomas was for paper ou hand at the close of his contract, and that it had been paid into the Treasury by me. Thus the matter ended,so far as I was concerned, certainly in no wise to my discredit.

At the risk of a seeming egotism, I wish to say a word about my management of the Government Printing Office, while Superintendent.

On the 1st of March, 1861, the law establishing the office went into operation, and Mr. Lincoln appointed me the Superintendent. I organized the establishment and put into effect a system of doing the business, that rendered it the model printing office of th^ country. I devoted my whole time to it with as much care, as to its economical management, as if I had been the owner.

More than six millions of dollars were disbursed, and my accounts vv settled at the end of each month, at the Treasury Department, with such promptness and correctness as to receive the commendations of the accounting officers of that Department. 1 challenge any one to show that the Government was wronged out of a dollar by me during my superintendence*. On the contrary, the facts will show that I saved it hundreds of thousands of dollars, as is well known to the Government Committees on the Public Printing, during that time.

Suppose, however, that I havebeeu indicted fifty times for the commission of all the crimes known to the catalogue of crime, would that fact make a sober man out of a druukard Would it give capacity and intelligence to besotted ignorance aud stupidity? Would it render Graut any the less the mere tool of a cabal of low, bad men, who are united in the furtherance of their own purposes? Would it prevent such men as Morton putting paragraphs into his messages that he has not sense enough to understand after being put in

Print this letter, and then pitch into me to your heart's content. Of course you can do nothing else, as, I understand, you wear Mortou's collar, inscribed "this is my dog," aud are bound to do his bidding. Affectionately yours. &c.,

JOHN D. DEFREES.

THE office-holders' party takes warning from its fate in Maryland. There it nominated a negro for Presidential J&ecwjio straightway came out {of

Greeley. At Utica it took boud of fate, and nominated one so thoroughly committed that there wasn't one chance in a thousand to back out. But was it necessary for Mr. Fred. Douglass to commend himself for office by so dirty a fabrication as this: "Frederick Douglass showed up character of Greeley, cogently. He pointed out that he had not denied that I he had favored pensioning the rebel soldiers, but virtually admitted it in his Portland speech, by taking the pains to say that no Southern man ever made that proposition to him, when that charge has not been made, but that a Northern man did, and he acquiesced in it."

If Mr. Douglass does not blush when he reads that over, he must be a sadly changed man. He knows that Mr. Greeley is no more in favor of paying pensions to rebel soldiers (and has never written one syllable more in favor of it) than of selling him to the cannibals of Central Africa as a substitute for boiled missionary. Mr. Douglass has had such substantial reason for gratitude to Mr. Greeley that till hisdyingdav, if he have one spark of honor left, he will not cease to despise himself for falling so low as to utter that shameless calumny.—jV. Y. Tribune.

THE taxes collected 011 spirits, tobacco, fermented liquor, and banks in the First and Second Districts of Texas, for 1871, amouuted to $07,266.96. The sum appropriated to collect these taxes during the fiscal year 1872-73 is $42,000. This is one phase of the financial policy which the Philadelphia platform endorsed so heartily.

Clap-trap and Cant.—Invalid reader, if you are unwise enough to put yourself outside of any of the mock tonics guaranteed to contain "uo diffusive stimulant," you will inevitable come to grief. Ask your physician if any liquid preparation, destitute of stimulating properties, is worthy of the name of a tonic. He will tell you no. Shun all such nauseous catchpennies. PI,ANTATKN 1'UTTERS, the most wholesome invigorant in the world, owes the rapidity with which it relieves the disordered stomach and the shattered nerves to the diffusive agent which conveys its medicinal ingredients to the seat of the complaint. That agent is the spirit of sugar cane, the most nutritious aud agreeable of all the varieties of alcohol. The medicinal ingredients of the Bitters, valuable as they are, would be comparatively useless witout this distributive basis. They would ferment and sour. Beware, as you hope for health, of the horrible compounds of refuse drugs in a state of fermentation which humbugs are endeavoring to foist upon the public as medicines.

It is a mark of the unsuccessful man, that he invariably locks his stable door when his horse has been stolen. This sort of wisdom never thinks about bodily health until it is gone. But just as much as any disease has become seated, the power of the system to resist and throw it off is weakened hence time is all important. For dyspepsia, all diseases of the liver, stomach, skiu and kidneys, and all that begiu in vitiated blood, do not wait until the trouble is confirmed, but attack it by a timely use of DR. WALKER'S CALIFORNIA BITTERS.
