DELANO and his son John will come in for a little investigation.

REPUBLICAN candidates for county offices are beginning to spring up in large numbers.

ORVIL GRANT has done more to make tho nation sick of nepotism than did Charles Sumner's great speech.

IF all the signs of the limes are not false, Sartoris did not make such a marvellous marriage after all. He won't be able to take precedence of Boss Tweed's son-in-law.

COL. WM. E. MCLEAN has the inside track for the Democratic nomination for Congressman. He would make an active canvass of the district and what better could carry it.

PRESIDENT PRADO of Peru has arrived ani Don Pedro Emperor of Brazil is on his way. The glories of Republican Government as exhibited in Congressional investigations this centennial year will not dazzle these South American rulers.

ACCORDING to Bob Schenck, the Emma mine is etill a valuable property, and worth all it was ever sold for. Inasmuch as the stock can be bought at almost any figure a buyer may choose to offer it, would seem as if Mr. Schenck had a line opportun ty to make some money.

FRANK LANDERS has left Wash ington and is now in Indianapolis trying to set up the pins for the nomination for Governor. We are sorry, oh, so sorry Frankie, but we really will not need your services as Governor. Our man has been selected. Besides it would be cruel in Indiana and selfish too, to take you away from the nation.

GRANT is reported cs saying that he wishes the 4th of March, 1S77, were already here. Never did the mau on horseback more truly strike the popular impulse than in this phrase. The whole country wishes the 4th of March, 1877, weiecome On that day Grant will step down and out, if indeed the people do not assist him out of tho seat he has so before that time.

Spencer?s Panacea for Panics.. The remarkable statement comes over the wires that Senator Spencer yesterday introduced a bill to prevent panics. No information is vouch safed as to the way in which it is to be done, other than the fact that he presented a bill. How noble and hu mau it was in Spencer. What a mi& fortude to the race it ia that nobody before him ever thought of intro ducing a bill and stopping these distressing things. Within the memory of the'youngest reader of the GAZETTE there have been two panics, and from the effects of the last one, the country has not yet re covered. No one better than the same youngest reader to whom we have referred, knows how panics curtail the supply of money for gum drops and peanuts, and defer the day of purchase for the promise of gum or honey. Now all this yputhful misery and a very great deal of grief, in older hearts, Spencer with a liberality which does him infinite credit proposes to stop. He has studied the field with a statesmans vision, in the interval allowed him by vindictiv enemies who have maliciously cbarg" ed him with certain crooked practices, and now proposes to stop panics.

Port Scott, Kas., April 12.—A bold attempt was made about 1 o'clock yesterday morning to rob tho express and mail train on "tho Missouri, Kansas tfc Texas railroad, at iiluo Jacket station, just over tho southern border of Kansas, in the Indian Territory. The officers of the road had known for some time that a gang of desperadoes had organized for this object, and the company had taken steps to frustrate their designs, in sending out a detoctivo to watch them. Three of the dotectives had joined the gang, and learned their plans, which included the pobbery of this train, as the_ train was run on a side track by a misplaced switch. A guard who had been placed in tho cab with the engineer, loosing his presence of mind, commenced firing at the robbers as they approached the train, at the samo time giving the signal to tho others in the train to conio out, thus giving the robbers a chance to retreat, which they availed themselves of in haste. Two of tho gang were captured at Chetopa, Kansas, this

The First Ifapoleon'a Confidence In (he Knowledge stud Nagacitv ofTalleyratu«. [From Bslgrav.'.a.l

Of the complete confidence of Napoleon at ono time in Talleyrand's diplomatic capacity the proofs are abundant in his correspondence. After Austerlitz he wrote simply to hiui:—"I want peace arrange the conditions as well as yo'u can." During all the period of his most splendid triumphs of the first Empire he listened patiently to tho advice aud remonstrances of Talleyrand when he wouldjlisten to no other. In every critical juncturo of affairs ho consulted him, and knew that whatevor orders he gave would bo completely carried out and with the most consummate tact. Ho gave up wholly to him the negotiations of Amiens, of Presburg and ot Tilsit, and recompensed his services with unparalleled munificence. During tho seven years that Talleyrand was thus his Foreign Minister he gave him a place in his Privy Council, made him Hign Chamberlain, Vice Grand Elector and created for him a lief in Italy, with the title of Prince of Benevonto. No one was more intimately associated than M. de Talleyrand with the career of Napoleon, and he understood tho character of tho Emperor and the depth and extent of his designs. Some of Talleyrand's mots during the Empire have quite a historic significance, as this one, for ex. Napoleon always was curious to know the opinion of the Faubourg St. Germain about his victories as Alexander was to kuow that of the Athenians. "What will the Fabourg St. Germain say?" he always asked, ironically, after a great victory. After tho victory of Austerlitz he asked M. DeNarboune, who, like Tal« leyrand, was another aristocratic diplomatist in his service, and whom he had overwhelmed with favors, "Votre mere m'aime-trelie cette fois?" M. DeNarbonno was embarrassed for a reply, but Talloyrand came to his aid —"Sire, Mme, DeNarbonno n'en est encore qu'a l'admiration."

Talleyrand, however, could upon occasion turn a compliment even to a military man, lor when General Mentha rn arrived, like General Dorsftnne, la to for dinner and apologised. "Gen-, you have come late, it is true: but that only proves that I did not invito you to a battle, for then, my dear Bayard, you w: uld have arrived first."

It was a pretty compliment which he turned, too, for the Princesse de Vaudemont, a very charitable lady, when ho was asked for her address. "Hue St. Lazare," he said. "I forget the number but ask tbe first poor person you meet. They will tell you. All the poor know her house."

Another mot too, in illustration ol the period of tho domination of tho sabre, when the language of the camp invaded even tho salon. Generai Dersenno was engaged to dine •with him, but arrived late and found tbe guests seated. Talleyrand apologi/.ed, and tho General replied that ho had beou very busy daring tho day and detained at the last moment by a cursed pekin (tho slang military term for a civilian.)

May I ask you," said Talleyrand, "for my private instruction, what ia a pekin?" "Ah. mon Dieu, monseigner! Did you remark tho expression? Well, it is a camp word. AVe call a pekin every ono who is not military." "That is very good," said Talley.'and.

OU VN« -RRLO LM NOT

military. We do much tho same thing. We cail everybody military who is not civil."

At last, however, in 1814, tho Empire was tottering to its fall, and the allies were pressing upon Paris, while Napoleon, by his wonderful strategic activity, multiplied the number of his troups endeavored to save the capital. Napoleon, however, before quitting Paris for the Campaign, held a council. He always suspected Talleyrand of secret intrigues with his enemies and at the conclusion of the council ho arese in anger and declared he was surrounded by enemies. He then addressed himself especially to Talleyrand, and for more than ten minutes overwhelmed him with violent reproaches. Talleyrand, of whom it has been said by Murat that you might kick hint lrom behind without his showing the least traco of feeling it in his face stood all the time he was being thus rated at the corner of the fire, using his bat as a screen, and it was said if any one had entered at the moment, ke would have thought that Talleyrand was the last man in the world who was tbe subject of Napoleon's abuse. When the Emperor bad come to an end of his tirade he went out of the room and slammed tho door violently behind him, and Talleyrand took the arm ot a friend and limped down stairs, saying cooly and audibly, "What a pity that so ereat a man has such bad manners."

Napoleon indeed, was not far wrong

in suspecting Talleyrand of being falso to him, for his former Minister of For eign Affairs was already iu correspondence with the Emperor Alexander, and waiting with impationca tho entrance of the Allies into Paris but precisely at the moment when he desired most to remain in tho capital, Talleyxand received orders to join the Empress Marie Louise, who had been appointed repent, and was departing for Blois. Talleyrand did not even then dare to disobey openly Napoleon's gamo did not seem even then wholly lost. Talleyrand wished to keep up appearances, and not have the discredit of an abrupt desertion. So inventive a genius, however, wa3 not at a loss to manage to stay in Paris and still keep up appearancos. There are two accounts of the manner in which he effected this. The one says that he ordered his state carriage with groat parade, and embarked in it with all bis baggage, making arrangements, however, with Mine. De Remusat that her husband should arrest him at the head of the National Guard at the gates of Paris, with the declaration that so important a personage could not be allowed to quit tho capital. The other says that he arrived with full traveling suit at the barriore. when his servants were asked for his passport. "It is the vice grand elector,"

they

replied. "He can pass," was the reply. "No," said Talleyrand, "I will not break through your regulations," and he returned to his hotel in Rue Florentine. "II- ne coirvient nas," he said "a tout le monde de se faire eeraser par les ruines d,nn edifice qui va crouler" And M. De Talleyrand was the last man in the world to aU low himself willingly to be crushed by an edifice which he knew to ba on the point of tumbling down.

A mot of his had. indeed, gone the round of Paris, some months before its occupancy by the allies in 1814, "C'est de commencement de la lin," and the mot has passed into a proverb. It is said, moreover, that the notorious M. De Maubreuil, whose name as Marquis d'Orvault came so scandalously before the public a few years past, proposed to have Napoleon assassinated, and that the Abbe de Pradt was in favor of the scheme and discussed its execution with Talleyrand, and that the following words passed: "Combien vous faut-il?" "Dix millions." "Dix millions!" said Talleyrand "mais ce n'est rien pour debarrasser a France d'un tet fleau." ^V- ""J

This was the same man who, before the marriage of Marie Louise with Nepoleon, gave utterance to this sentiment :—"There remain but two great families in Europe—the house of Bourbonjand the house of Austria. We must ruin the one and marry the other." And Napoleon accused him of having counselled the assassination of the Due (i'Enghten aud ihe seizing possession of the throne ol' Spain. He said to O'Meara at St.Helena that Talleyrand had counsalled him to do everything he could for tho ruin of Bourbons, aud on another occasion he said if ho had but hanged Talleyrand and Fouche he would not have been in exile. With respect to tho aflair of the Due de'Enghten and the Spanish irif vasion Talleyrand had declared that he gave exactly the contrary advice, and it is difficult iudeed to decide between Napoleon and Talleyrand wheu the question is of veracity. It was however, at Talleyrand's house that the Emperor Alexander lodged in 1814, and the Czar said:—"When I en tered Paris Talleyrand had Louis XVIII in one hand and Napolean II, in the other, and he gave me Louis XVIII." The council, which was held in Talleyrand's house set tied the question of the restoration.

OEN. IIEDRICK.

Washington, April 12.—G^n. He drick was examined by the Clymer committee to-day. His evidence was to the effect that he is interested iu post Iraderships at Fort Buford, Fort Lincoln and Fort Fetterman has a one-third interest in each, but never put any capital in either. He helped to secure lliese post trader9hips, and was a personal friend of Secretary Belknap. It was no pnrt of tuecon sideraiion for a one-third interest that Gen. Hedrick should use hi3 in fluence with Secretary Belknap About appointing Layton, he said he would not have interested him self in this matter if he had not had a personal interest in the business He said he received nothiug from Fort Lincoln—from the others per haps $10,000. Gen. Hedrick was ex amined at great length as to the cap ital invested at the several posts, but he couldn't cive any information jitr aina he had not drawn out all of his prolits, but did not recall now how much was still in the business prior to the Fort Fetterman affair. Layton and he secured posts at Fort Griflin and Fort Oonchan. They were equal partners and got out of the posts about $2,000 never got any profit out of Fort Laramie. He secured an appearance at Camp Supply for his brother-in-law and himself. Reynolds took him into the partnership, with one-third interest in the profits, and he got about $2,000 out of this post. He never received any money any one for appointment as post traders, other tnan those mentioned. From all his post tradarship business he had received less than $15,003 he coold not recollect asking General Belknap for a post tradership when he was refused .his influence with Belknap was due to serving in tbe same regiment with him for four years, and his applications were strongly endorsed-

General Belknap never knew that he (Hendrick) was interested in any of these posts. Belknap had never received any benefits, pas', present, or prospective:

JAMES TRAINER,

post trader, was recall. He reiterated the charge that he paid Simon Wolf, recorder ol deeds, of Washing Ion, two hundrad aud lifty dollars for assistance in getting his post.
